Private Water Abstraction records

Received: 10 April 2023

Dear Sir / Madam

I would like to request any information held by Barnet Council relating to water abstractions (groundwater or surface water) within 1km of the following sites:

1) Shell, 11, Colney Hatch Lane, Fortis Green, Muswell Hill, London Borough of Haringey, London, Greater London, England, N10 1QB, United Kingdom (Grid reference E 528566, N 190118)
2) Shell Stirling Corner, Stirling Corner, London Borough of Barnet, London, Greater London, England, EN5 3JG, United Kingdom (Grid reference E 520932, N 195270)
3) Shell, 409, Kilburn High Road, West Hampstead, London Borough of Brent, London, Greater London, England, NW6 7QE, United Kingdom (Grid reference E 524634, N 184598)
4) Shell, 409, Kilburn High Road, West Hampstead, London Borough of Brent, London, Greater London, England, NW6 7QE, United Kingdom (Grid reference E 520421, N 190058)

We understand that the Environment Agency maintain records for licensed water abstractions (typically over 20m3 per day) but for smaller water abstractions, licenses are not required by the EA, but the Local Authority are responsible for maintaining a register of such private water supplies (e.g., farmhouse boreholes, private wells, springs etc.).

Please include all details held for any abstractions, including but not limited to:

* Type of abstraction (groundwater/surface water):
* Water Abstraction rates (volumetric):
* Surface water body / groundwater unit abstracted from:
* Logs from abstraction boreholes:
* Location of abstraction point (e.g., grid reference):
* Use of abstracted water:
* Any other abstraction details:
* Details of any water quality data held for these abstractions:

If you require any further information, please don't hesitate to contact me.
