Twenty tonnes of the water treatment chemicals were accidentally dumped in the wrong tank at the Lowermoor water treatment works operated by the former South West Water Authority.
Hill Holt Wood is a sustainable woodland management project and community controlled business. The project covers an unusually broad range of issues which all relate to the sustainable management of the countryside with the involvement of the local communities.
