The primary agency with powers to protect water resources such as surface water (streams, lakes etc) and below ground water resources such as aquifers is the Environment Agency (EA).

The Council works with the Environment Agency in a number of ways to prevent or control pollution. This is done by prompt reporting of incidents, ensuring that emissions from industries controlled by the Council are properly controlled and by preventing pollution of water by dealing with any contamination of land.
