List Of Reservoirs On Jersey

This is a list of reservoirs on Jersey. Jersey Water operate six main reservoirs, with an additional two reservoirs for untreated water that can be pumped between the other reservoirs. Raw water can be stored at Mont Gavey and Augres Treatment Works, with treated water being able to be stored at Augres, Handois, Les Platons, and Westmount. The two water treatment works on the island can process a maximum daily capacity of of water daily ( at Handois, and at Augres).

Security of water supply on the island has led to investigations into increasing the amount of water available; when at peak capacity, the combined amount of water in the six reservoirs would supply enough water for Jersey for 120 days. One option mooted is to expand Val de la Mare Reservoir, or use parts of the worked out Gigoulande Quarry as a seventh reservoir. A further option of a seventh reservoir is in the Mourier Valley on the north-western side of the island. The six main reservoirs listed fall under ''Reservoir (Jersey) Law 1996''.

Some abstraction points are located on smaller reservoirs such as La Hague, and Le Maseline.
