DRAINAGE AND SEWERAGE
The District is drained by separate soil and surface water systems. The surface water
sewers are discharged into the various natural streams and watercourses, whilst the soil sewers
discharge into the main sewers of the West Middlesex Sewerage System.
WATER SUPPLY
The water supply for the Ruislip-Northwood area is provided by the Colne Valley Water
Company. All dwellings in the area are served by a piped supply and the supply during the
year has been satisfactory both in quantity and quality.
Reports are received monthly from the Colne Valley Water Co. as to the chemical and
bacteriological examination of samples of water and these have proved satisfactory.
