Quarry Dewatering

摘要

The Water Act 2003 introduced the most significant changes to water abstraction licensing since the framework for wai er licensing was first set up in 1963. Further amendments, scheduled to come into force this year, will significantly affect many operators in the minerals sector. Geoff Keen3n, principal from SLR Consulting's Exeter office, explains the background to these amendments and urges the industry to act now in order to comply with the new regulations by October 2010.
