Water Regulation Zones

Water Supply Zones represent the extend of the area supplied by Scotland's water authority (Scottish Water). These zones represent the extent of the drinking water supply in a given area. The dataset is created new for each calendar year and remains fixed until the next year. The year is also known as the Reporting Year. Each water supply zone must not have a total population greater than 100,000. The water authority must also supply the full name, a unique reference number and a population supplied for each zone.
