Info for any Nidderdale Cavers - Scour Test @Scar House Reservoir
NAME OF RESERVOIR: SCAR HOUSE IRE
DATE OF SCOUR TEST: 14/03/2017
NGR OF DISCHARGE POINT: SE 068 767
NAME OF WATERCOURSE: RIVER NIDD
Scour tests are routinely carried out on reservoirs to ensure that they can be lowered in an emergency. The test entails fully opening the outlet valve and the release of water at full flow into the stream for a period of approximately half an hour. This is likely to cause increased turbulence and deterioration of water quality immediately downstream for the duration of the test and for a short while afterwards.
