Both companies’ licences have been changed to make Hartlepool Water the statutory water undertaker for the site. Cameron Hall Developments plans to build a business park on the site and Hartlepool Water plans to service it by laying a new pipe between the park and one of its own mains 4km away.
Customers on the park will be charged on the same tariff as Hartlepool Water’s existing customers. This is currently lower than Northumbrian Water’s tariff.
This is the fourth time that a company has chosen to use a different regulated water or sewerage supplier to the one allocated to it and is the first time that this has involved an unconnected greenfield site.
