United Utilities Water Limited has applied to the Environment Agency for a licence.

The Environment Agency is giving notice of this application in accordance with Section 37 of the Water Resources Act 1991 and Regulation 6 of the Water Resources (Abstraction and Impounding) Regulations 2006.

The application is to vary existing abstraction licence 27 75 009 011 which authorises abstraction of water from Thirlmere Reservoir at Keswick, Cumbria, for the purpose of public water supply.

The variation applied for is to change the location where the compensation flow release is measured.
