Have your say

We understand that our proposals will have an effect on landowners, homeowners, and communities. We are committed to working with these groups as we develop our plans and want to hear all views on our emerging proposals.

Your local knowledge is valuable to us and we welcome any feedback you have onthe ideas and features we’ve identified. You can find out more about our proposals and see a map here.

What you can influence

For this consultation we are asking for your feedback on:

• Our emerging design for the reservoir (main site). This shows opportunities for recreational, wildlife, nature and other features.
• Our early-stage proposals for wider areas of land in the vicinity of the reservoir we could need for environmental mitigation and enhancement, construction, or wider uses.
• Areas we identified for the water sources infrastructure needed to transfer water from sources to the reservoir, and the water supply infrastructure needed to treat the water stored at the reservoir, and supply it to homes and businesses.
• Supporting information about our approach to a range of topics explained in our project fact sheets

You can submit feedback to us in several different ways:

• Online form – complete the form and submit your answers here.
• Hard copy feedback form – download the feedback form here, or collect a form at one of our events or deposit locations explained below.
• Email us at info@lincsreservoir.co.uk
• Write to us at Freepost Lincolnshire Reservoir

There are some aspects that are not open to influence. That’s because they cannot be shaped by feedback for technical reasons, such as safety and engineering requirements, or because they have been and continue to be established and consulted on through the Water Resources Management Plan (WRMP) process. This includes:

• The project’s need case
• The capacity of the reservoir
• The site of the reservoir
• The sources identified as having water available to fill the reservoir
• The areas identified for connecting the project to the existing supply network
