Award Winning Touring Park | Whitefield Forest
For six years, Simon and Pat Glover, owners of the award winning 5* Whitefield Forest Touring Park near Ryde on the Isle Of Wight, liaised closely with The Environment Agency regarding their treatment plant compliance during the peak holiday seasons. With constant attention from Simon (supplemented with the help of a tanker firm) he struggled to achieve the levels required to meet his legal consent. With increasing numbers and fluctuating loads across the holiday periods this became an ongoing and uphill struggle. Armed with his fast tracked knowledge for waste water treatment, his hands on experience with the old system and coupled with the fact that peak visitor numbers to the touring park would rise, it became obvious to Simon and Pat that an improvement was necessary to avoid a foreseen non-compliance.
Researching the market and taking onboard working experiences from other local Bio-Bubble owners, Simon and Pat were confident that Bio-Bubbles Advanced Aeration process would eliminate all the manual intervention demanded by its predecessor and take their popular Touring Park to the next level. Bio-Bubbles proven track record instilled 100% confidence that it could meet their legal obligations, thus stop them from constantly looking over their shoulders. Simon’s professional background enabled him to project manage the civil installations, working closely with Graham Attrill Civil Engineering Ltd, the bespoke Bio-Bubble plant was installed within 2 months and commissioned on time for the opening of the new season. The busy Easter break proved a success, site owner Simon said:“ I have sampled and tested the final effluent prior to discharge and I am delighted with the levels of BOD and Ammonia achieved; we have near zero ammonia and single figure BOD levels, I am expecting the volume of sludge taken away by tankers to be greatly reduced compared to our old system. Bio-bubble have provided an excellent service throughout the whole process – design development, installation, commissioning and monitoring. It would have been nice to know what I now know about wastewater treatment when we first opened our Business, as they say hindsight is a wonderful thing”
