Questions about Stag Lane CSO
- Who operates Stag Lane CSO?
- Thames Water is the operator named in the annual record. The permit reference is Permit applied for.
- Where does Stag Lane CSO discharge?
- The annual record does not provide a usable receiving-water name.
- How many times did Stag Lane CSO spill in 2025?
- The 2025 return records 37 counted spill events and 66.1 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 99.9% of the reporting period, so the annual figures cover most of the year. They still do not measure discharge volume.
- Is Stag Lane CSO 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 Stag Lane CSO?
- 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 Stag Lane CSO compare with other overflows?
- Stag Lane CSO recorded 37 spills in 2025. That is more than 80% of the 14,239 overflows in England with a reported figure, and ranks 2,695th nationally. Among Thames Water overflows it ranks 77th of 579; the median Thames Water overflow recorded 6 spills. On the Silk Stream and Edgware Brook waterbody it ranks 1st of 3. Ranks compare counted spill events only. They do not compare volume or harm.
- 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.
