Proposal

Wessex Water is proposing to construct a new inlet works which will increase the storm storage capacity at North Petherton Water Recycling Centre (WRC). The current inlet works is at risk of being overwhelmed during peak storm conditions and will be demolished once the replacement inlet works are commissioned. The proposed inlet works and storm storage tanks are to be located on agricultural land adjacent to the current WRC and therefore this application is for a change of use from agricultural land to Wessex Water’s operational land. A proposed Motor Control centre kiosk will be located within the existing WRC.
