Flooding in Hull 2007 - report


On 18 March 2008 we posted a statement about the June 2007 flooding in Hull. Yorkshire Water has now published the report that we asked them to prepare and has placed a copy on its website. The Yorkshire report has clarified the performance of the drainage in Hull in June 2007, and demonstrated the improvements that the work currently being implemented by YKY will bring. It is likely that more detailed work, which is now proposed, will lead to a greater understanding of the level of protection appropriate for Hull, and opportunities for local improvements in the sewerage system. We expect YKY to progress this work and incorporate its investment proposals in the current round of business plans being prepared in anticipation of the 2009 water and sewerage services price review.
