Wessex invests

摘要

Wessex water has commenced work on a £26M scheme to improve water quality at Weston-super-Mare as it aims to minimise the impact of wastewater discharges on bathing water quality. The company is carrying out improvements at its Weston-super-Mare sewage treatment works to help ensure new standards are met. Currently sewage is treated so it is clean enough to be returned to the sea safely and ensures the current mandatory bathing standard is met. Under the revised Bathing Water Directive which will come into force in 2015, bathing waters at Weston Main and Uphill Slipway would be classified as 'poor', based on historic sampling results.
