Natural Resources Wales is the regulatory body responsible for managing water resources in Wales. We balance the water needs of the environment and society and encourage water efficiency to support the economy, safe-guarding wellbeing now and for the future.
We face challenges from climate change and an increasing population which will impact on our water resources and the ways we will have to manage them. We will achieve this by continuing to regulate the abstraction of water, monitor the environment and by working closely with Waterwise, the water industry and other abstractors to manage resources efficiently.
