Summary
Private water supplies are vulnerable to disruption or pollution. As many households and businesses rely on these supplies, it’s important they are protected from the impacts of land use changes and forestry operations.
This guide replaces the 2018 version from Forest and Water Scotland. It covers:
- planning and approval
- operational planning
- in-operations
- post operations
Aimed at forest managers, practitioners, planners and supervisors, it will help you undertake due diligence and use safeguarding measures to protect private water supplies.
