Questions about Laceby-Caistor Road #1 SSO
- Who operates Laceby-Caistor Road #1 SSO?
- Anglian Water is the operator named in the annual record. The permit reference is ANNNF2284.
- Where does Laceby-Caistor Road #1 SSO discharge?
- The source names Laceby Beck as the receiving water. This does not show how far a discharge travelled.
- How many times did Laceby-Caistor Road #1 SSO spill in 2025?
- The 2025 return records 1 counted spill events and 9.3 hours of recorded discharge. Spills are counted with the 12/24-hour method, so this is not a count of every start signal.
- Can I trust the 2025 figures for this outlet?
- The monitor worked for 21.3% of the reporting period. Below 90%, some events can be missed, so the count and hours may understate activity.
- Is Laceby-Caistor Road #1 SSO discharging right now?
- This record is linked to a company live feed. The panel above shows the latest report we hold, with its date. That report can be old, and the monitor can be offline, so check the date before relying on it. A report that no discharge is taking place is not a water-quality result.
- How accurate is the map marker?
- The marker comes from the grid reference in the official annual return, which is accurate to about 1 metres. It shows the recorded outlet position, not the extent of any discharge.
- What kind of outlet is Laceby-Caistor Road #1 SSO?
- The annual return lists the asset type as “SO on sewer network”, which means storm overflow on the sewer network. The return places this overflow on the sewer network.
- How does Laceby-Caistor Road #1 SSO compare with other overflows?
- Laceby-Caistor Road #1 SSO recorded 1 spill in 2025. That is more than 15% of the 14,239 overflows in England with a reported figure, and ranks 11,130th nationally. Among Anglian Water overflows it ranks 1,063rd of 1,438; the median Anglian Water overflow recorded 6 spills. On the Laceby Beck / River Freshney Catchment (to N Sea) waterbody it ranks 4th of 4.

- Does zero spills mean the water was safe?
- No. A zero means the annual return recorded zero counted spill events for this outlet and year. It is not a water-quality test, and pollution can come from other sources.
