IOW Water Recycling Project Consultation

We’re planning to build a water recycling plant in Sandown to provide a new source of water for our customers on the Isle of Wight and reduce the reliance on the mainland. Learn more about the consultation.

background

Our consultation is now closed

Our six-week consultation gave local people a chance to provide feedback on our plans to build a water recycling plant on the Isle of Wight. Our consultation brochure covers the following topics:

  • The project and how it was selected.
  • The specific works being proposed.
  • The water recycling plant.
  • The proposed pipeline route.
  • Our construction timetable and approach.
  • The environmental considerations within the project. 

The consultation focused on the construction and operational impacts in the immediate area around the project, which would see a new water recycling plant built in Sandown, along with a pipeline to transport water to the Eastern River Yar.

Public events

We held three in-person consultation events for customers and stakeholders to view details of the project and ask questions to the team involved, in Sandown and Alverstone.
