Environment Agency

16:50 2024

All reservoir panel engineers are civil engineers qualified to carry out tasks on:

  • large raised reservoirs have a volume of at least 25,000 cubic metres above ground level
  • high-risk reservoirs a reservoir is high risk if it is large raised and the Environment Agency thinks an uncontrolled release of water could endanger human life

All reservoir panel engineers can:

  • design and supervise the construction and alteration of a large raised reservoir
  • inspect, produce a report and make safety recommendations for a high-risk large raised reservoir
  • oversee and certify that safety recommendations have been carried out at a high-risk large raised reservoir
  • supervise a high-risk large raised reservoir and produce a statement once a year
  • act in an emergency to protect people and property against a possible escape of water from a large raised reservoir
  • bring an abandoned reservoir back into use as a large raised reservoir
  • design and supervise the alteration of a reservoir such that it is no longer a large raised reservoir
  • certify a flood plan for any large raised reservoir

Joint reservoir engineer panels for England and Wales

The Secretary of State and Welsh ministers have established new joint reservoir engineer panels for England and Wales.

The new panels started on 1 January 2022. They will run alongside and eventually replace the existing panels. From 1 January 2022, the list of panel engineers will include both the existing panel members and the new joint panel members. You can choose any engineer from the list.

For more information see the joint determination made by the Secretary of State and the Welsh ministers.
