Ecclefechan Wwps CSO And EO
Storm overflow run by Scottish Water, discharging into Mein Water.
"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
Scottish Water's published data for monitored overflows (number of overflow events; Scottish Water does not use the 12/24-hour count). 2026 is our own running count, the same way, from the live feed since 28 February (when we began keeping every discharge it reports) — so it can only be lower than the full year. The official figure is published next spring.
"No data" means the monitor was not working or not required to report that year — not zero.
Twin outlet
Scottish Water runs another overflow within 300 m that also discharges into Mein Water. They share the sewer and the storm, so one outlet's figures are only part of what reaches the water.
Downstream of this overflow
The next gauge downstream that the river map places is Brydekirk (Annan), 6.2 km along the river.
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 2026-04), which leaves out many small channels.

Discharges we have recorded
3 discharge periods since 15 Sep 2026. Recorded from the live status feed only — Scottish Water has not published an event-level log we hold, so this is what the feed has shown us, not a complete record. 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.
Rain nearby last 30 days
Nearest live rain gauge: Kinmount House, 8.0 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).
