The BRE Group does not accept any responsibility whatsoever for any loss or damage, including - without limitation - indirect or consequential loss or damage arising from use, or loss of use, of data or profits arising out of, or in connection with, the use of this document.
This register contains basic information on 2572 dams whose reservoirs come within the ambit of the Reservoirs Act 1975. The number of reservoirs under the Act is less as some reservoirs are formed by more than one dam. Information is included on dam type, height and crest length, and the reservoir capacity and surface area. The information in the register has been derived from the BRE dams database which contains more detailed information on the dams. Much of the basic information has come via the Enforcement Authorities and direct from the major dam undertakers.
