Sign in to saveStorm overflow run by South West Water, discharging into River Meavy.
"Not discharging" means the company's monitor reports no discharge right now — not that the water is clean. The feed publishes status only; no discharge volume is measured.
Year by year
The Environment Agency's official annual returns, counted the EA's way (12/24-hour spills). 2026 is our own running count, the same way, from South West Water's monitor log. The feed reports only each overflow's latest discharge, so a discharge it moved past before we saw it end is counted as one spill with no hours: the hours are a floor. The official figure is published next spring.
A spill is the EA's 12/24-hour count: the first 12 hours of a discharge count as one, each further 24 hours with discharge as one more. "Monitor" is the share of that year the monitor was working, so a 0 beside a working monitor is a real zero; "no data" means the monitor produced no usable data that year — not zero. Years before 2024 are matched to this site by name and location, because the EA's site IDs changed that year; a monitor figure beside one of them means the outlet's permit confirms the match.
Downstream of this overflow
Its water reaches 2 gauges next on the river map, on different channels: CARNWOOD, 6.8 km along the river; Carnwood (River Plym), 6.8 km along the river.
Water-sampling points downstream
The nearest Environment Agency sampling points the river map places below the gauges above. Points between this overflow and that gauge cannot be put in order with it on the map, so they are not listed.
- River Plym at Plym Bridge
9.7 km along the river, below CARNWOOD · Last sampled 26 Aug 2026 · 2 months ago
A sample is dated: it is not the river now, and its results are on its own page. A sample taken after a discharge does not show that the discharge caused what was measured.

A river gauge measures the level of the river; it does not measure this overflow's discharge, and a spill does not by itself explain a change there. Traced on OS Open Rivers (edition 2026-10), which leaves out many small channels.

What the 2025 return says
From South West Water's annual return to the Environment Agency for this overflow.
"High spill threshold not met" means this overflow did not spill often enough to trigger the EA's formal high-spill review for that year. It is not a statement that the spills were harmless.
Discharges we have recorded
124 discharge periods since 1 Jan 2024, 1 whose end the feed never gave. 104 of them come from South West Water's own event-duration-monitoring records (published on Stream, Jan 2024 – Mar 2026); this overflow has no live feed, so nothing after that log is held. The official annual count is the figure to quote.

The year figures above use the EA's 12/24-hour counting method, so they are comparable with the official figures; the monitor log's 136 raw blocks were merged into 124 continuous discharge periods (gaps under 15 min joined).
Look back by date
Discharge records held: 1 Jan 2024 to 31 May 2026. Choose the dates of a flood or a storm to see every discharge recorded then.
Days run midnight to midnight, UK time, up to 366 days at a time. A discharge beside rain or a flood is a timing match, not proof of cause, and no volume is published.
Rain nearby last 30 days
Nearest live rain gauge: Rainfall gauge nr Dousland, 3.2 km away. Brown shading = when this overflow was discharging; ▼ = a discharge start.
Overflow shading is a timing match, not proof of cause — heavy rain and spills share a trigger. Times come from the water company’s event-duration monitor (site status only; no discharge volume is published).

Report pollution you can see or smell to the regulator straight away; the company handles complaints about the overflow itself.
Write to the MP
The Environment Agency's return places this overflow in the South West Devon constituency. An MP can ask the company and the regulator questions on a constituent's behalf. These words carry the official figures; change them as you like.
