Our Water Resources Management Plan (WRMP) explains how we intend to deliver secure and sustainable water supplies to our customers for the next 25 years.
All water companies are required by Government to produce a Water Resources Management Plan, which is reviewed and updated every five years.
We’re inviting stakeholders and customers to view and comment on our draft Water Resources Management Plan for 2025 to 2050.

As well as our draft plan, we’ve also published our draft planning tables.
We’re not aware that any of the information in our draft Water Resources Management Plan is commercially sensitive, so we’ve not excluded any information because of this. We’re also not excluded any information on the grounds of national security.
We’ve prepared our plan in consultation with Defra, the Environment Agency, Natural England and Ofwat.
Public consultation starts on 2 February 2026 and runs for 12 weeks ending on 26 May 2026.
If you wish to comment on our draft Water Resources Management Plan, please contact the Secretary of State by email at water.resources@defra.gov.uk, using the subject line ‘mua Water’s draft Water Resources Management Plan’.
You can also write to Water Resources Management Plan Water Services, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, Seacole 3rd Floor, 2 Marsham Street, London SW1P 4DF.
At the end of the consultation period, we’ll review all the comments and, if required, we’ll update our draft Water Resources Management Plan.
We’ll publish our Statement of Response and final Water Resources Management Plan for 2025 to 2030 by 3 August 2026.
