Riverside SPS CSO
Sign in to saveStorm overflow run by Scottish Water, discharging into Black Cart 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 overflow data reported to SEPA (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 23 September (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. Scottish Water counts each overflow event; England and Wales count 12/24-hour "spills", so these numbers are not directly comparable with English or Welsh overflows.
Twin outlet
Scottish Water runs another overflow within 300 m that also discharges into Black Cart Water. They share the sewer and the storm, so one outlet's figures are only part of what reaches the water.
This overflow: 0 spills in 2025. Distances are between the published outlet points.
Discharges we have recorded
No discharge has been recorded from the live feed for this overflow since we started following it. The official annual figure above is the record to rely on.

Rain nearby last 30 days
Nearest live rain gauge: Lochwinnoch, 8.5 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).
Where it is
Tell me when this overflow discharges
One message when the company's monitor reports a new discharge here. At most one every 6 hours.
Setting this alert needs JavaScript. The alerts you already have are on your alerts page.
The alert repeats the monitor's status: whether the overflow is discharging, not how much or why. It can only tell you about a discharge that starts after you turn it on.
Concerned about this overflow?
Report pollution you can see or smell to the regulator straight away; the company handles complaints about the overflow itself.
