The Borehole Users Conference 2021 Retrospective

November 11, 2021

On the 4th of November 2021, experts from across the water industry gathered at Aspects, National Memorial Arboretum to invest in a day of learning, sharing, and networking. 


We were fortunate enough to have some fantastic speakers on the day. Peter Easton started the morning session with a keynote lecture on water stewardship and how it can be used to deliver social, environmental and economic benefits. Helen Kelleher then delved into the world of catchment hydrogeology and declining water quality. Penny Jenkinson and James Dodds rounded off the morning session with regulatory risks and how they could impact your private water supply development.

The afternoon provided two workshops run by Affinity Water and Mott MacDonald. Affinity Water’s hydrogeologists talked us through some borehole construction examples, covering the unexpected challenges, risks and regulatory difficulties. Mott MacDonald on the other hand, looked into the world of emerging contaminants, including microplastics and the deadly risks associated with antimicrobial resistance.


The conference was complemented by an exhibition that provided space to connect with suppliers who offer support for every stage of your water supply journey. They included top-quality water monitoring equipment, specialist water analysis to optimise your pumping systems and drilling, installing and maintenance support to name just a few.

 

As the only conference in the UK dedicated to industrial and private water supplies, the annual Borehole Users Conference offers water professionals, whether owners or operators of private water supplies, the opportunity to engage with a variety of exhibitors and specialists in the industry.


To all our speakers, exhibitors, sponsor and delegates, thank you for attending the Borehole Users Conference 2021 and making it the best one yet! We look forward to seeing you at #BHUC2022 next November.
