Water

Water covers over 70% of the earths surface and is a very important resource for people and the environment.  Water pollution affects drinking water, rivers and streams, lakes, seas and potentially any recreational use of them.  The aim is to prevent or reduce the risk of water pollution where possible, and to ensure that it gets cleaned up.  The Council has legislation that deals with various bodies of water and it also regulates certain users of it.
