Legal Justification

8 penstocks part of the Mersey Estuary Pollution Alleviation Scheme (MEPAS) are inoperable and need to be replaced to prevent flooding, pollution and damage to customer property. A number of penstock suppliers were engaged with and a decision has been made based upon a combination of technical expertise, capability and commercial feasibility in order to resolve this issue in as timely a manner as possible. The risks in delays to replacing these penstocks are; - Wastewater entering and polluting the River Mersey - Saline water entering waste water treatment works causing damage to process equipment -The prevention of backflows which would cause flooding at residential customer properties and businesses
