Drinking water

These pages contain information and advice about Bury Metro Council's duties with regard to drinking water.

Most people in the Borough receive mains water.  Mains water is that which is supplied by United Utilities.  A small percentage of people living in isolated or outlying properties may gain their water from a private supply which may be from a well, spring, stream or borehole.

Choose pages situated at the left of the page for further information about mains and private water supplies.
