Request
I am undertaking a groundwater risk assessment in Herefordshire and am requesting information regarding any registered private water supplies in the area in order to inform the assessment.
The grid reference to the approximate centre of the site is SO 53311 66236 (353311 , 266236). I have attached a figure of the site boundary for reference.
I am requesting the details of any private water supplies within 1.5km of the grid reference, including (if known) the supply type (e.g. borehole/spring) and the purpose (e.g. domestic/agriculture).
