Pollution Incident Reduction Plan

We are committed to being open and transparent about our performance and our plans. One of the documents that helps with this, is our Pollution Incident Reduction Plan.

 

A summary of our plan

At Severn Trent, we understand that our activities have the potential to impact the environment if things don’t go as planned. Whether it’s sewage or even clean water escaping from our systems, the consequences can be harmful to the environment.

That’s why we’ve developed a comprehensive plan to ensure we are doing everything possible to prevent pollution from our operations. Our commitment to “Get River Positive” outlines our ambition to be open and transparent about our activities, and our Pollution Incident Reduction Plan is one element of how we do this. The plan outlines what we've achieved in 2025 to reduce the risk of pollution from our operations, and our plan for the year ahead.

This plan and the actions within in are all part of us sharing the steps we’re taking to protect and enhance the environment, ensuring that our activities contribute to a healthier, more sustainable future for our rivers and surrounding ecosystems.
