Mid Wales

Stretching up into the breath-taking Elan Valley and Brecon Beacons National Park, our mid Wales region, is surrounding by some of Wales’ most beautiful and rural scenery.

Example of investment in area:

  • Norton and Presteign Wastewater Treatment Works - we have completed an investment of £3.7m to convert Norton WwTW into a pumping station which now passes flow onto Presteigne WwTW for enhanced treatment. Presteigne WwTW has been upgraded with a £3.5m investment to introduce phosphorous removal to the treatment process due to be completed this year. This is part of a wider £64m investment plan in this Asset Management Period (2020-2025) to improve the river water quality of the River Wye & River Lugg under the Water Framework Directive which includes for improvements at Builth Wells WwTW, Rhayader WwTW and Clyro WwTW in the mid Wales area alongside treatment works in the Hereford area.
  • We have undertaken an extensive water quality modelling programme to identify what the main sources of phosphorus are in the river and where it is best to target our investment now and in the future. We are also supporting the work of the Wye Nutrient Management Board and Technical Advisory Group with evidence from our modelling and expertise on how we can best contribute to restoring the river to a favourable condition. We will provide similar support to the new Nutrient Management Boards that are currently being established for the other failing Welsh freshwater special areas of conservation on the Usk and Tywi.

Building upon the success of our Event Duration Monitor (EDM) installation programme (2019-2020) we are currently investing £42m across Wales in our Storm Overflow Assessment Framework (SOAF). Over the next 5 years (2020-2025) this programme will use data from the EDM sites to prioritise wastewater assets for investigation, with the aim to reduce both the number and volume of storm water discharges to the environment. This will improve both watercourse amenity value and water quality overall.

We are currently undertaking 42 investigations into a prioritised list of EDM trigger assets within the Mid Wales area.

A £19m investment has been started to install Pass Forward Flow monitoring on over 300 wastewater treatment works to enable us to monitor our compliance against our flow permits and assess whether we’re fully utilising the treatment works full treatment capacity prior to spilling to storm. This investment will take up to 3 years to complete. Pass forward flow is the minimum flow that an asset is required to pass forward before spilling to storm to ensure it remains compliant.
