View Annual Sewage Data

You're looking at the totals that we have calculated for sewage in Leeds South so far for 2026. It is an estimate, based on very poor quality live data from the Water Companies. The water companies report their sewage to the Environment Agency every year in April. You can see the last reported year in the other page

What's a potential overflow? If the CSO goes 'Offline' while its Overflowing, we don't know if it stopped overflowing until we get a 'Stop' event.
