Preservation of ecosystems on Veolia sites
Veolia Water UK in the United Kingdom pays special attention to protected species and natural habitats present on its sites.
Since 2002, Veolia Water UK has been working on a classification of its sites with regard to the British national system, which enables delimitation of protected zones and appropriate management of natural areas.
Several partnerships have also been initiated between subsidiaries of Veolia Water UK and environmental associations working towards the preservation of biodiversity.
For example, the partnership between Three Valleys Water, Friends of Stockers Lake and Middlesex Wildlife Trust has lead to the creation of a protected zone at Stockers Lake, to preserve the population of birds living close to this wet environment.
