Examples of records and schematics
Accurate and detailed records, maintenances diaries, schematics and plans of a private supply is important information for the risk assessment process. Ideally this information is provided to a local authority before a visit so that the time spent completing on-site risk assessments is optimised.
Local authorities may wish to consider gathering information regarding a private supply from the relevant person(s) ahead of any planned risk assessment. Whilst this does not replace the need for a site visit and full risk assessment, it can reduce the amount of follow up work required.
An Information Pack can be sent to relevant person(s) inviting them to provide details or evidence about their supply. Local authorities should take the information provided, input it into their risk assessment and then verify the information onsite. As a minimum, the information in Table 1 should be able to be provided by the relevant person(s) ahead of the local authority risk assessment. Example tables for sections, where relevant, have been included.
