Whilst Anglian Water will vet and assess an application, the Developer is responsible for employing a contractor to carry out the connection works. If the sewer connection is to be made directly to the public sewer, the contractor that is selected to carry out the works must meet certain requirements.
We have provided a list of sewerage contractors that have demonstrated to us their compliance with these requirements. You remain at liberty to employ a contractor who is not included on the list, however they will need to provide the following information for our approval before work commences:
- A copy of their current health and safety policy.
- A copy of their current public liability insurance policy, the value of which must be a minimum of £5 million.
- A statement in respect of quality assurance standards for the company's work.
- Details of previous sewer connection works, including types of connections, depths, methods used and dates.
- Evidence of current HAUC approval from the Highway Authority.
-
Evidence of current confined space training, for a minimum of two people and certification for one of the following:
- The Anglian Water Confined Space Assessment (through Develop 0800 876 6708
www.developtraining.co.uk).
- The City & Guilds Utilities Operations Scheme 5831.
- The EU Skills Registration Scheme.
Sewerage contractor list
Anglian Water has a sewerage contractor list which is reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that the contractors continue to meet the requirements mentioned above.
