They revoke and replace the Private Water Supplies Regulations 2009 (S.I. 2009/3101).PART 5Notice procedure18Notices1

If any private supply of water intended for human consumption constitutes a potential danger to human health, a local authority must serve a notice under this regulation on any relevant person.

2

The notice must—

a

identify the private water supply to which it relates,

b

state the grounds for serving the notice,

c

prohibit or restrict the use of that supply, and

d

specify what corrective action must be taken in order to—

i

safeguard human health;

ii

restore the wholesomeness of the water supply; and

iii

maintain the continued wholesomeness of the water supply following its restoration.

3

The local authority must promptly inform consumers of the private water supply to which the notice relates and provide any necessary advice.

4

The notice may be subject to conditions and may be amended by further notice at any time.

5

The local authority must revoke the notice as soon as it becomes aware that there is no longer a potential danger to human health.

6

It is an offence for a person on whom a notice under this regulation is served to fail to comply with a notice served under this regulation.

7

Where any relevant person (“P”) who is required by virtue of a notice served under this regulation to take any step in relation to any premises fails to take that step within the period specified in the notice, the local authority which served the notice may take that step itself.

8

Where any step is taken by a local authority in relation to any premises by virtue of paragraph (7), the local authority may recover from P any expenses reasonably incurred by it, or by any person acting on its behalf, in taking that step.
