"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

Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water's annual Event Duration Monitoring return to Natural Resources Wales (12/24-hour spill count), as compiled by The Rivers Trust. 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

Dwr Cymru Welsh Water runs another overflow within 300 m that also discharges into River Ebbw. They share the sewer and the storm, so one outlet's figures are only part of what reaches the water.

Discharges we have recorded

128 discharge periods since 10 Feb 2020. 127 of them come from Dwr Cymru Welsh Water's own event-duration-monitoring records (published by the company, Feb 2020 – Dec 2025); the live feed adds anything after that. The official annual count is the figure to quote.
