Achieving your water needs, both above or below ground

Agriculture

Envireau Water is a member of the National Farmers Union and Country Landowners Association, and is actively involved in solving water-related issues faced by the arable, livestock and dairy industries. Our clients include some of the UK’s major growers and land estates through to smaller, but equally important, family-run operations. We are known for working with our clients and the UK regulators to develop and implement practical solutions that meet the requirements of both parties.

With experience gained across all levels of the sector, we have an enviable track record of obtaining permissions and permits in situations where others fail. We have successfully negotiated new abstraction licences in otherwise closed catchments, and developed a range of licensing solutions that enable our clients to develop their businesses with confidence.

Horticulture

Envireau Water are members of the NFU and CLA. We are actively involved in solving water-related issues faced in horticulture. With over 15 years of experience we have worked with a range of clients from major UK growers to small family-run businesses. Working alongside both client and UK regulators, we are able to achieve results which satisfy both parties. Services which we have recently completed include but are not limited to, flood risk assessments that have enabled our clients to obtain planning permission for polytunnels in flood sensitive areas, securing licences to abstract larger quantities of water when the area was facing drought and installation of boreholes.

Water is an essential aspect with horticulture, but with increasing demands due to decreasing supplies and quality we can help you. With a team of specialist consultants, we offer tailor made solutions to provide top water management.

Case Studies

Supporting Low Carbon Farming Innovation

With the use of new innovative technology for a glasshouse development located in a catchment closed to new groundwater abstractions, our team had the challenge of developing a sustainable solution. Read on to learn more.

Dam Breach Risk Assessment

Acquiring planning permission can be tough, especially when dealing with the Lead Local Flood Authority. See how we helped gain the necessary planning permission for winter storage reservoirs for one of our agricultural clients.

Abstraction Licence Success: The Heronhill Case

See how we helped Heronhill modify a licence to allow them to abstract water at lower flows.

A Pragmatic Approach to Abstraction Licensing

With licensing issues in the area and numerous local private water supplies, see how we successfully secured an abstraction licence for a spray irrigation system.

Unique Abstraction Licence

A client in an area closed to new groundwater abstraction licences required water for spray irrigation. The answer lay in a unique abstraction licence.
