Borehole Users Conference 2017
Sep 21, 2017
ALS Environmental are delighted to be exhibiting at the annual Borehole Users Conference on the 5th October at Holywell Park Conference Centre, Loughborough. This exciting event is for anyone who uses, manages, owns or plans to develop a private water supply and also for borehole operators, specialists, designers or regulators.
ALS Environmental Wakefield are proud to provide analysis for all standard Drinking Water suites set out in the Private Water Supplies Regulations including:
- Regulation 10 Suite
- Basic Suite
- Check Suite
- Audit Suite
This year marks the 5th anniversary of this event and the need to focus on fundamentals of sustainable extraction. Sustainable extraction, by utilising good design, means minimising energy use and maximising longevity. This also means ensuring there is enough water to pump, this is deduced from test pumping and data collection, and making sure this is not impacting on others. Specialist presenters from various backgrounds will be sharing their knowledge and experience regarding these topics and how they are working towards providing practical solutions to ensure sustainable extraction.
