(3)[F2The provision made by this Act in relation to large raised reservoirs extends as well to those constructed under statutory powers as to those not so constructed.]
(4)In relation to any reservoir “undertakers” means for purposes of this Act—
(a)in the case of a reservoir that is or, when constructed, is to be managed and operated [F3by the Environment Agency, the Natural Resources Body for Wales (the “NRBW”) or a water undertaker, the Environment Agency, the NRBW or, as the case may be, the water] [F4undertaker]; and
(b)in any other case—
(i)if the reservoir is used or intended to be used for the purposes of any undertaking, the persons for the time being carrying on that undertaking; or
(ii)if the reservoir is not so used or intended to be used, the owners or lessees of the reservoir.
[F5(4A)The “area” of the Environment Agency, in its capacity as a relevant authority for purposes of this Act, is the whole of England F6....]
[F7(4C)The “area” of the NRBW, in its capacity as a relevant authority for the purposes of this Act, is the whole of Wales.]
(5)This Act shall not be taken as conferring on any person a claim to damages in respect of a breach by undertakers of their obligations under this Act.
[F8(5A)In this Act, “appropriate agency” means—
(a)in relation to reservoirs in England, the Environment Agency;
(b)in relation to reservoirs in Wales, the NRBW.]

(1)[F10 The relevant authorities for purposes of this Act shall be, in England F11... the Environment Agency ] [F12, in Wales the NRBW] and, in Scotland, [F13councils constituted under section 2 of the Local Government etc. (Scotland) Act 1994].
(2)It shall be the duty of each [F14 relevant authority ] to establish and maintain for their area a register showing the large raised reservoirs situated wholly or partly in the area, and giving the prescribed information about each of them; and—
(a)the register maintained by a [F14 relevant authority ] under this subsection and copies of it or a prescribed part of it shall be kept at such place or places as may be prescribed; and
(b)the register so maintained, and any copy required under sub-paragraph (a) above to be kept at any place, shall be available for inspection at all reasonable times by any person.
[F9(2A)If it appears to the Secretary of State that the inclusion of any information in the register maintained under subsection (2) above by the Environment Agency [F15or the NRBW] would be contrary to the interests of national security, he may direct the Agency [F16or the NRBW] not to include that information in the register.]
[F17(2B)The undertaker must register a large raised reservoir with the relevant authority.
(2C)The Minister may make regulations about registration under this section.
(2D)Regulations under subsection (2C) may, in particular, include provision about—
(a)the information to be registered, and
(b)the time by which information, or changes to information, must be registered.
(2E)The regulations may require an undertaker to notify the relevant authority about—
(a)proposed alterations to which section 6 applies;
(b)a proposal to abandon a large raised reservoir under section 14;
(c)the appointment, or termination of appointment, of an engineer for a purpose of this Act.]
(3)It shall be for the [F14 relevant authority ] in whose area a reservoir is situated, if they are not themselves the undertakers, to secure that the undertakers observe and comply with the requirements of this Act.
(4)Where a reservoir extends into the areas of more than one [F14 relevant authority ], then unless one of those authorities are the undertakers, the authority charged under subsection (3) above with securing that the undertakers observe and comply with the requirements of this Act shall be such one of those authorities as may be agreed between them or, in default of agreement, may be determined by the Secretary of State.
(5)Where a reservoir extends into the areas of more than one [F14 relevant authority ], and one of those authorities are the undertakers, subsections (3) and (4) above shall apply as if the reservoir did not extend into the area of that one of the authorities.
(6)For purposes of this Act “enforcement authority” means, in relation to a reservoir, the [F14 relevant authority ] charged under subsection (3) above with securing that the undertakers observe and comply with the requirements of this Act (and, where the context so requires, includes the authority that would be so charged if the reservoir were a large raised reservoir); and accordingly the provisions of this Act relating to the enforcement authority for a reservoir do not apply in the case of a reservoir if a [F14 relevant authority ] are the undertakers and the reservoir is situated wholly in the area of that authority.
(7)There shall be paid out of money provided by Parliament any increase attributable to this Act in the amounts so payable under any enactment by way of rate support grant.
