Stepping down in November as chief executive of UK Water Industry Research (UKWIR), a role he took up following a nearly 30-year stint at Anglian Water Services, Steve Kaye hopes he’s helped lay the ground for a more future-looking approach in the industry. Under his leadership, UKWIR has evolved from focusing on short-term projects to implementing a longer-term strategic programme addressing critical issues like leakage, chemical pollutants, and freshwater abstractions. His tenure has also strengthened collaborations with academia, regulators, and international organisations, paving the way for more innovative and sustainable solutions. Speaking to Jo Caird, Steve Kaye reflects on his mission to drive innovation and collaboration across the sector. Kaye highlights the importance of breaking down silos within the sector and beyond, advocating for holistic approaches that connect water management with energy, agriculture, and other industries. He also calls for regulation reform to encourage collaboration and long-term investment, which he sees as key to tackling the sector’s most complex challenges.

The latest issue of the Journal of Flood Risk Management reveals a stark global reality, one where increasing conflict and climate extremes converge to create unprecedented humanitarian challenges. With global violence reaching its highest levels since World War II, nations in Asia and Africa are experiencing the devastating dual pressures of ongoing conflicts and severe flooding, putting billions of people at risk. This issue calls for urgent, collaborative approaches to flood risk management in conflict zones. By leveraging advanced technologies like satellite imagery and drone monitoring, developing robust infrastructure resilience, and creating comprehensive post-disaster recovery strategies, researchers and humanitarian organisations can provide critical support.

🎧 New episode of Planet Possible - Out now! 🎧 In the December MiniPod, host Niki Roach chats to Arup's Director of Water Will McBain. They discuss three key topics: ➡️ The UK Government review of partnership funding regime for Flood and coastal erosion risk management. ➡️ New figures that reveal that 86% of rivers tested in 2023-24 in England were found to have bee-killing neonicotinoid pesticides present whilst the office of environmental protection opens an investigation into Defra's emergency authorisation of the use of the pesticides. ➡️ Will's passion for a multi-generational programme of nature connection.

Flooding doesn’t have to mean devastation. Dragonfly Boutique in Hebden Bridge is a shining example of how Property Flood Resilience (PFR) measures can protect a business and keep it thriving. When the shop owner took over three years ago, she knew the risks of flooding and therefore partnered with her landlord to make practical, flood-resilient adaptations. By investing in smart, strategic flood protection measures, this independent clothing store has proven that proactive planning can save a business from devastating losses. From strategically placed flood barriers to waterproof flooring and movable stock storage, the owner demonstrated that resilience isn't about preventing water entirely but about minimising impact and ensuring rapid recovery. While neighbouring shops were forced to close for repairs, Dragonfly Boutique reopened the very next day after a flood, with zero stock damage and minimal disruption.

CIWEM (The Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management) reposted this
The Enabling Water Smart Communities project has just released a report exploring the costs of water reuse installations - for greywater and stormwater reuse, at community scale and for individual plots. We are not aware of any similar study being done for the UK in recent years. The report presents capital costs for external pipework, storage and treatment equipment, and internal pipework. These costs were sought from appropriate providers including treatment equipment suppliers, water companies, self-lay pipework providers, and plumbing contractors. Despite a small sample size, the range of costs received demonstrates that reuse is a credible approach to significantly reducing average household water consumption and increasing resilience – particularly where councils are challenged by water stress. -- Findings indicate that: 📌 community-scale stormwater reuse is the most cost-effective, even for smaller sized developments of 40-50 homes. 📌 by comparison greywater reuse is more expensive, but more data is needed to reduce uncertainties. 📌 there is a significant fall in costs with development size up to around 100 units 📌 higher density development sites yield lower costs -- This report represents a first step to fully understanding the costs of community water reuse; further work is needed to: 📌 refine costs ranges and provider greater certainty through engaging a wider pool of product suppliers and supply chain contractors; 📌 understand ways in which costs of community-scale reuse might be reduced, for example by optimising drainage design at site level to capture water for reuse; 📌 investigate the operation and maintenance costs of reuse, and compare total costs with alternative options for achieving water resource resilience. -- Read the report under 'Project Outputs' ➡️ https://lnkd.in/d6W-TbsB #EWSC #enablingwatersmartcommunities #Reuse
