They also have a consultation open on their Water Resources Management Plan.

Please email them at water.resources@defra.gsi.gov.uk, using the heading “United Utilities Water Resources Management Plan 2013” making it clear to them that it is unacceptable that they either

• allow fracking companies to use their land, which in many cases is in Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty
• supply water in the volumes required to these companies to the possible detriment of domestic supplies, and with possible pollution to ground and surface water as a result.
