Meadowhead and Stevenston Strategic Catchment Studies
Assessing the impact of assets
In response to the Urban Wastewater Treatment and Bathing Water Directives, Scottish Water commissioned Grontmij to act as lead consultant as part of a multi-consultancy modeling and design team to ascertain the impact of their assets on a number of watercourses and bathing beaches.
Challenging problems
This catchment is particularly complex covering a geographical area of approx 125 km2 consisting of both urbanized and rural areas, and a population of more than 300,000. There are two PFI wastewater treatment works discharging to the sea via long sea outfalls, 190 intermittent discharges and 55 pumping stations.
