PART 2 CONTROLLED RESERVOIRS Lochs and other areas to be considered artificial or partly artificial 2 For the purposes of section 1(2) of the Act, a loch or other area is to be considered artificial (or partly artificial) if it was created or enlarged as a result of human activity. Calculation of volume of water that a structure or area is capable of holding 3 1 For the purposes of Part 1 of the Act, the volume of water that a structure, loch or other area referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of section 1(2) of the Act (“the reservoir”) is capable of holding above the natural level of any part of the surrounding land is to be calculated by measuring the maximum volume of water (in cubic metres) which is capable of being held in the reservoir— a above the bed of the reservoir; and b between the toe of the reservoir and its top water level. 2 Water not capable of flowing out of the reservoir over natural ground in the event of an uncontrolled release of water from the reservoir must not be included in the calculation. 3 In paragraph (1)— “bed”, in relation to a reservoir, includes any silt or other material that is incapable of flowing out of the reservoir over natural ground in the event of an uncontrolled release of water from the reservoir; “toe” means the point on the downstream side of a dam, reservoir wall or embankment forming part of the reservoir where the base of the dam, reservoir wall or embankment, as the case may be, meets the lowest level of the natural ground (which remains after the construction, or any alteration, of the reservoir) of any part of the land adjacent to the reservoir, including the lowest bed level of any watercourse; and “top water level” means— in the case of a reservoir with a fixed overflow sill, the lowest crest level of that sill; in the case of a reservoir the overflow from which is controlled wholly or partly by moveable gates, syphons or otherwise, the maximum level to which water may be held exclusive of any provision for flood storage; or in the case of a reservoir designed for the purposes of holding back floodwater, the maximum level to which floodwater may be held during any flood event exclusive of any provision for overflow. Calculation of volume of water that a structure or area is capable of releasing 4 For the purposes of subsection (3) of section 1 of the Act, the volume of water that is capable of being released from a combination of structures or areas referred to in that subsection (“the combination”) is to be calculated by measuring the maximum volume of water (in cubic metres) which is capable of flowing out of the combination over natural ground in the event of an uncontrolled release of water from the combination. Meaning of “natural level” and “surrounding land” 5 1 For the purposes of Part 1 of the Act— “natural level”— in relation to any part of surrounding land which would remain covered with residual water after an uncontrolled release of water from the structure, loch or other area (to which the land relates), means the level of the surface of the residual water; and in relation to any other part of that surrounding land, means the level of the natural ground remaining after the construction, or any alteration, of the reservoir; and “surrounding land”, in relation to a structure, loch or other area referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of section 1(2) of the Act (“the reservoir”), means the land adjacent to the reservoir (including any land which would be adjacent to water held by the reservoir when the reservoir is holding the maximum volume of water that it is capable of holding). 2 In the definition of “natural level” in paragraph (1), a reference to “residual water” is a reference to water which would not be capable of flowing out of the structure, loch or other area in question over natural ground in the event of an uncontrolled release of water from the reservoir. Structures or areas which are not controlled reservoirs 6 1 Ponds within extractive waste areas or waste facilities constitute the structures or areas referred to in paragraph (a) of section 2(2) of the Act. 2 In paragraph (1), references to “ponds”, “extractive waste areas” and “waste facilities” are to be construed in accordance with the meaning given to the corresponding word or expression in regulation 2(1) of the Management of Extractive Waste (Scotland) Regulations 2010 . 7 Weirs which are not capable of holding water above the natural banks of any part of a watercourse constitute the structures or areas in paragraph (c) of section 2(2) of the Act. 8 1 Road and railway embankments which are designed to drain water (including from any upstream areas) through the embankment, subject to paragraph (2), constitute the structures or areas referred to in paragraph (f) of section 2(2) of the Act. 2 The road and railway embankments referred to in paragraph (1) do not constitute the structures or areas referred to in paragraph (f) of section 2(2) of the Act if drains which are designed to drain water (including from any upstream areas) through the embankment are— a artificially blocked for the purposes of using areas upstream to hold water; or b constructed so that water is held above natural ground level. 9 A structure or area created as a result of the construction of dams by beavers is not a controlled reservoir (and is not to be taken into account in relation to what is to be treated as a controlled reservoir for the purposes of section 1(3) or (4) of the Act). PART 3 REGISTRATION Controlled reservoirs register: additional information 10 1 From the date on which a controlled reservoir is required to be registered under the Act, the controlled reservoirs register must contain the business address of any construction engineer, inspecting engineer, other qualified civil engineer or supervising engineer appointed at any time in relation to the reservoir. 2 From the date on which a 1975 Act reservoir is required to be registered under the Act, the controlled reservoirs register must contain the name and business address of any construction engineer, inspecting engineer or supervising engineer appointed immediately before that date (or, if any such engineer was not appointed at that point, the last such engineer appointed) under the 1975 Act in relation to the reservoir, and the period of any such appointment. 3 In paragraph (2)— “1975 Act reservoir” means— a controlled reservoir which was, immediately before 1st April 2015, required to be registered in a register maintained under section 2(2) of the 1975 Act; or a controlled reservoir which— was not, immediately before 1st April 2015, required to be registered in a register maintained under section 2(2) of the 1975 Act; and was, on or after that date, required to be registered in a register maintained under section 2(2) of the 1975 Act; “construction engineer” has the meaning it had in section 6(1) of the 1975 Act; “inspecting engineer” has the meaning it had in section 10(1) of the 1975 Act; and “supervising engineer” has the meaning it had in section 12(1) of the 1975 Act. Information that a reservoir manager must register with SEPA 11 The reservoir manager of a controlled reservoir must, under section 10(1) of the Act, register— a the information and documents (in relation to the reservoir) specified in Schedule 1; b if the reservoir is a reservoir to which section 11(2) of the Act applies— i a copy of the most recent report of an inspection under section 10 of the 1975 Act in relation to that reservoir; ii the name, business address, email address and telephone number(s) of the inspecting engineer who carried out the inspection to which the report relates; and iii to the extent known or readily obtainable by the reservoir manager, the name, business address, email address and telephone number(s) (including a telephone number for making contact outside normal working hours or in an emergency) of any— aa construction engineer; bb inspecting engineer; or cc supervising engineer, appointed immediately before the date on which the reservoir was registered (or, if any such engineer was not appointed at that point, the last such engineer appointed) under the 1975 Act in relation to the reservoir (and the period of any such appointment); and c if the reservoir is required to be registered in accordance with section 13 of the Act, a map showing the area of land which, in the event of an uncontrolled release of water from the reservoir, would be likely to be flooded. Time by which changes to information must be registered 12 Where there is a change to information referred to in regulation 11, the change to the information must be registered by the reservoir manager under section 10(1) of the Act within 28 days beginning with the date on which the information changed. Registration fees: general 13 1 Subject to regulation 14, SEPA may charge the reservoir manager of each controlled reservoir a fee in relation to the registration by that manager of the controlled reservoir under section 10(1) of the Act. 2 The reservoir manager must pay the registration fee to SEPA. 3 The registration fee is recoverable as a civil debt. Registration fees: determination and charging 14 1 SEPA must determine the registration fee to be included in its charging scheme having regard to the likely average cost to SEPA of registering a controlled reservoir. 2 The registration fee must accompany the information to be registered under section 10(1) of the Act. 3 SEPA must not charge a registration fee in connection with any registration under section 10(1) of the Act where the information to be registered was received by SEPA before 1st October 2015. Annual subsistence fee: general 15 1 Subject to regulation 16, SEPA may charge the reservoir manager of each controlled reservoir which has been given a risk designation under the Act an annual fee in relation to the performance by SEPA of its functions under Part 1 of the Act. 2 The reservoir manager must pay the annual subsistence fee to SEPA. 3 The annual subsistence fee is recoverable as a civil debt. Annual subsistence fee: determination and charging 16 1 SEPA must determine the amounts of the annual subsistence fee to be included in its charging scheme having regard to— a its functions under Part 1 of the Act; b the likely cost to SEPA of carrying out those functions; c the number of controlled reservoirs that have been or are likely to be registered; and d the categories of risk designation. 2 Different amounts of annual subsistence fee may be set for controlled reservoirs with different risk designations. 3 The annual subsistence fee is chargeable in respect of each financial year. 4 The annual subsistence fee is payable at the beginning of the financial year in respect of which it is chargeable. 5 Where a controlled reservoir is given a first risk designation under section 19 of the Act during any financial year, the annual subsistence fee for that financial year must be such proportion of the annual subsistence fee which would otherwise be payable under these Regulations as relates to the period of that year for which the reservoir had a risk designation. 6 Where a different risk designation is given following a review under Chapter 3 of Part 1 of the Act, the risk designation for the purposes of determining the amount of the annual subsistence fee in any given financial year is the risk designation that applied on 1st April of that year. 7 Where a controlled reservoir has more than one reservoir manager and one or more nominations are made under section 4(3) of the Act such that a single reservoir manager (“the point of contact manager”) has been nominated by the other managers to fulfil the following functions under Part 1 of the Act— a making representations to SEPA within the meaning of section 18(4) of the Act; b applying for a review of a risk designation under section 23(1) of the Act; c giving notice to SEPA of proposed works under section 33(1) of the Act; d giving notice to SEPA of the appointment of a construction engineer under section 33(2)(b) of the Act; e giving notice to SEPA of the appointment of an inspecting engineer under section 45(1)(b) of the Act; f giving notice to SEPA of the appointment of any other qualified engineer under section 48(2)(b) of the Act; g giving notice to SEPA of the appointment of a supervising engineer under section 49(1)(b) of the Act; h submitting flood plans to SEPA under section 55(3)(f) of the Act; i giving notice to SEPA of any relevant appointments under section 65(2)(b) of the Act; j giving SEPA notice of revocation of appointment of an engineer under section 103(1) of the Act; and k giving SEPA a copy of a notice of resignation by an engineer under section 103(2) of the Act, SEPA may only charge the point of contact manager the annual subsistence fee in respect of that controlled reservoir. 8 SEPA must not charge an annual subsistence fee for the financial year ending 31st March 2016. Transfer fees: general 17 1 Subject to regulation 18, SEPA may charge the reservoir manager of a controlled reservoir a fee in relation to a notice given to SEPA by that manager under section 15(2) of the Act. 2 The reservoir manager must pay the new manager fee to SEPA. 3 The new manager fee is recoverable as a civil debt. Transfer fees: determination and charging 18 1 SEPA must determine the amount of any new manager fee to be included in its charging scheme having regard to the likely cost to SEPA of performing SEPA’s functions under section 15 of the Act. 2 A notice under section 15(2) of the Act must be accompanied by any new manager fee. 3 SEPA must not charge a new manager fee in respect of any notice under section 15(2) of the Act which was given to SEPA before 1st October 2015. Charging schemes 19 1 SEPA must— a set out its fees to be charged under this Part in a published charging scheme; and b consult such persons as SEPA considers likely to be affected by the scheme before it publishes or revises a scheme. 2 SEPA must, at least once in every three year period beginning with 1st April 2016, review the scheme. 3 Following a review, SEPA may revise the scheme.
