Influencing water companies

The water companies supplying Sussex are:

  • Southern Water
  • South East Water
  • Portsmouth Water
  • Thames Water (supplying a small area near Crawley)

Opportunities to influence

Every water company must produce a number of strategic plans to outline how they will meet demand, treat waste water, and look after the environment. These plans include:

  • Drainage and Waste Water Management Plans
  • Water Resources Management Plans
  • Drought Plans

Some of our recent engagement

Sussex Wildlife Trust commented in February 2023 on the draft Water Resources Management Plans produced by water companies in our area. You can read our responses below:

We also commented on the draft Regional Plan for South East England:
