Dwr Cymru Welsh Water is carrying out essential maintenance / investment works at Ystradfellte reservoir and dam. This may impact river levels downstream. Please share this information with groups using the river and Porth Yr Ogof for recreation.
Between June and October 2015, DCWW may occasionally need to release some additional water from the dam, which could see an increase in river levels - although river levels are not expected to increase significantly. People undertaking any recreational activities in the local river and caves are asked to bear this in mind when planning their activities. Dwr Cymru Welsh Water does not accept any liability in respect of any of these activities. These activities are carried out entirely at the individual?s own risk.
DCWW have also posted signage locally in the car park and at some entrances to the caves and shared this information with the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority to cascade to other groups using this area. If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact Ffion Green, Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water External Relations Manager (South West Wales) on 01443 452335.
Cambrian Caving Council would also like to hear about any developments of this.
