24/9/2009 12:54 | News - looks like one of Eutek's successful products in the USA is being introduced here. And just in time to react to the great debate about SUDS - imagine if this was installed in front of every paved-over garden etc... "New SUDS Product `Could Revolutionise UK Street Scenes` 24-Sep-2009 AN innovative new SUDS-compliant bioretention and bio filtration system from Hydro International could change UK urban street scenes and achieve greatly improved stormwater runoff quality and control in city environments. As the Government consults on proposals to enforce widespread application of sustainable drainage systems (SUDS) across England, and Wales through the introduction of new national standards, the Hydro Filterra® system could revolutionise the management of stormwater runoff by bringing lessons learned from the USA where it is already extensively installed. Says Hydro Stormwater division Director Alex Stephenson,. "Hydro Filterra® combines the 'green' sustainability of urban planting and landscaping whilst at the same time meeting the key principal of SUDS to control surface water runoff as close as possible to the point of falling. "Filterra® demonstrates perfectly how a mix of 'soft' and 'hard' SUDS elements can improve upon traditional design practices to offer a more suitable solution for space-limited urban environments. It puts powerful, natural stormwater management control back into the city planners' and architects' hands as part of SUDS schemes, and could be used to offset issues such as extensively paved-over front gardens." From the surface, the Hydro Filterra® system looks like a normal tree box, with suitable plants, shrubs or a tree protruding through a decorative grating in a typical concrete slab at pavement level. Underneath, it comprises a concrete container with a 75 mm mulch layer, 500 mm to 1000 mm of a unique soil filter medium, an observation/cleanout pipe and an under drain system which is connected to a surface water drain, infiltration or soakaway system or other outfall. Stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces is channelled into the inlet of the Hydro Filterra® box, and through the mulch, plant and soil-filter medium. Treated water either drains away or can be diverted into an additional storage volume adjacent to the box, as part of a stormwater attenuation or infiltration system. Modular storage or attenuation blocks such as Hydro's Stormcell® or the Stormbloc® infiltration block are ideal. An emergency overflow bypass facility is used for extreme events. Hydro Filterra significantly improves upon traditional bioretention and biofilter design, combining specialist engineered media with indigenous shrubs or trees to provide enhanced bioretention and biofiltration in a kerbside device. The advanced design requires 90-95% less land-take than traditional bioretention and provides higher levels of treatment for Phosphorus and Nitrogen, two of the most environmentally damaging causes of nutrient pollution. Additionally, the Hydro Filterra can be used as either a conveyance system or a source-point infiltration system for surface water runoff control. Hydro Filterra® is very adaptable, and its small footprint makes it more suitable than traditional bioretention cells for hard landscaped inner city streets, car parks, green spaces, piazzas and pedestrian access, residential and suburban localities. Filterra® is accepted in the USA as a stormwater management device for hard surface developments where planning permission requires the provision of surface water pollution control. For UK planners, landscape designers and developers, Hydro Filterra® offers a SUDS-friendly opportunity to improve runoff control and quality and comply with ever stricter environmental legislation." | rivaldo | |
23/9/2009 09:07 | A shame Chris Williams has left, but after eighteen years it's probably time for a change! The good news is I understand he's going to a different industry, not to a competitor. | rivaldo | |
21/9/2009 05:55 | Amazing - little ol' HYD taking the lead in setting the national agenda.... "NCE/Hydro round table: Flood of ideas 17 September 2009 | By Bernadette Redfern Last week NCE and Hydro International organised a round table discussion in London to influence forthcoming flooding legislation. The panellists Alastair Moseley Chair President of Ciwem and director at WSP Group Richard Ashley Professor of urban water at Sheffield University and Managing Director of Pennine Water Group David Schofield associate director at Arup, member of British Water Sustainable Drainage Focus Group Alex Stephenson director Hydro International Gordon Hunt drainage team manager, Oxford City Council Jeremy Jones independent consulting engineer David Rooke head of strategy and engagement, Environment Agency Vicky Dawe head of non-agricultural diffuse water pollution team, Defra Terry Fuller Chairman of Ciwem and director at Jacobs WATCH HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DEBATE HERE In July of this year consultation about the widely anticipated Flood & Water Management Bill ended with the Department for the Environment Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) receiving over 600 responses. This is far more than Defra would usually expect for a three month consultation period, but the huge amount of interest was unsurprising as the Bill is a response to the devastating floods of summer 2007. It was triggered by Sir Michael Pitt's review of the catastrophic events, which called for a single Act of Parliament to bring together several disparate pieces of legislation. It also takes into account the government's Future Water Strategy published in February 2008. Scrutiny of the 600 responses is now underway and Defra intends to publish its response to them next month but this must also incorporate the views of the Defra select committee which has also heard evidence on the issue and will be making its own recommendations this autumn. NCE understands that an amended Bill will be published by the end of the year depending on Parliamentary timescales. Until the Bill is finalised industry professionals know that the potential remains for their views to be included. With this in mind representatives of Defra, the Environment Agency, local authorities, consultants, product manufacturers and academia met in London to debate issues raised by the responses. The event was organised by Hydro International with NCE and was facilitated by the Chartered Institution of Water & Environmental Management (Ciwem). The Bill proposes some far reaching changes to the current flood risk management regime. These include: Making local authorities take the lead on flood risk, Removing the automatic right of developers to connect into existing sewers, The adoption of sustainable urban drainage systems (Suds) by local authorities A set of national Suds standards To date, developers have been deterred from including Suds in their projects thanks to uncertainty over who would then adopt and maintain them. Water companies were reluctant to take on assets as without any legislation forcing them to do so, meaning regulator Ofwat would not allow them to charge water customers for their upkeep. "We hope that all Suds in the pubic realm will be adopted by local authorities and the consultation document says that those obligations will be funded," explained Defra non-agricultural diffuse water pollution team head Vicky Dawe. etc" | rivaldo | |
18/9/2009 10:06 | The good news just keeps coming rivaldo - thanks again. A new product into the American market where the US are talking big bucks on water and environmental standards projects etc? | whonosewhy | |
17/9/2009 20:32 | Good news from the USA: "Hydro Int'l announces first Heliscreen order in U.S. By Kory Mello Sep 17, 2009 Portland, ME -- Hydro International, a leading provider of environmentally sustainable products and innovative solutions that control and treat stormwater, wastewater and combined sewer overflows, today announced that its U.S. business received its first domestic order for a Heliscreen® screening system. While Hydro International has installed hundreds of Heliscreen systems in the United Kingdom, the project in Farmington, Missouri, is Hydro's first Heliscreen installation in the U.S. The Heliscreen system will be used as part of a combined sewer overflow (CSO) mitigation project at Farmington's East Treatment Plant. The Heliscreen is a compact powered CSO screening system with the ability to operate under surcharged conditions. With low headloss and a small footprint, the Heliscreen works well in retrofit installations with hydraulic or physical site constraints. The Heliscreen is a quarter-inch (6 millimeter) perforated screen designed to handle a peak hourly flow of 8.1 million gallons per day. Farmington's East Treatment Plant is conducting the CSO mitigation project to adhere to stricter environmental laws. The CSO screening system is part of a plant enhancement and expansion to accommodate an increase in the average flow capacity from 1.3 million to 2 million gallons per day. "We're thrilled Farmington has chosen Hydro's Heliscreen for its Combined Sewer Overflow screening application," said Neil Raymond, general manager of Hydro International's Wet Weather business. "Communities face major challenges solving CSO issues, and the Heliscreen offers an efficient, cost-effective solution. We're excited about its market potential here in the U.S."" | rivaldo | |
16/9/2009 14:34 | That's what I'm hoping masurenguy - I am buying tiny amounts each month and have been for about six months, I think. I hope you are right because if it hits 150p I will easily be in profit. | whonosewhy | |
16/9/2009 14:18 | The Lamb share sales have undoubtedly been a factor in the share price halving over the past 12 months but the impact of the recession and the halving of the eps at the recent interims has also been a contributory factor. I think that we have seen the bottom on this stock now and would expect to see it gradually moving up again toward to 150p level over the next 12 months. | masurenguy | |
16/9/2009 13:43 | I agree rivaldo - I have just come here to post the question as that was what I thought. As usual you are fast with news and comment. I will be topping up a small amount over the next day or two in my normal way. | whonosewhy | |
16/9/2009 13:26 | Looks like Ms Lamb is conducting a relatively orderly top-slicing of her late husband's (from memory) holding. Nevertheless, she's disposed of 700,000 shares this year, which no doubt largely explains the share price! | rivaldo | |
15/9/2009 14:13 | Interesting stuff from HYD's major shareholder Impax in their latest results late last month: "Water Treatment and Pollution Control Global stimulus announcements were an important theme for the water infrastructure sector during the period. In the US, around US$ 18bn was allocated for environmental infrastructure projects relating to drinking water, rural water provision, flood control and remediation of contaminated land. In China, the figure was close to US$30bn. Highlighting the importance of spending on water infrastructure, President Obama announced that he would like to allocate US$ 4bn per annum to fund more than 1,700 water projects, in excess of that already committed via the stimulus programme. Meanwhile, water scarcity issues continued to be at the forefront of policy-makers minds, and droughts in Australia, California and China made the headlines. A report by the European Commission found that climate change could cause rainfall to drop by up to 40% across the Union by the end of the century, with food harvests falling by up to 30% as a result." | rivaldo | |

08/9/2009 10:56 | Speculative Buy rating from Growth Company Investor | investinggarden | |
07/9/2009 08:22 | I cant see much reason for buying, however, cant see much reason for selling either! Probably needs to put the certs at bottom of sock drawer and come back in 2 years time! | woodsman2004 | |
02/9/2009 09:23 | I cant see any reason for buying back here at the moment. If anything its over priced IMO. | stegrego | |
02/9/2009 08:27 | Personally I am kinda indifferent towards these results - we all knew that the Stormwater business would be up the creek in line with the building industry. Nevertheless, even though we are in the middle of a big recession the company is still profitable and will live to fight another day. Long term prospects remain excellent, but by long term we are probably talking 5 years so this is not a stock for the impatient. | woodsman2004 | |
02/9/2009 08:14 | Very disappointing results with a significant deterioration in Stormwater sales that is now expected to continue into H2. As a result the eps for H1 is down by 48%. Whilst there are now encouraging signs that the deterioration in the Group's Stormwater revenues has stabilised, we are not anticipating a significant recovery until the second quarter of 2010 at the earliest. As a result we anticipate that full year Stormwater revenues are likely to be lower than in 2008............The Group now expects to deliver sales revenues broadly in line with 2008 levels. In line with our normal trend we expect profitability to improve in the second half of the year, however, the impact of adverse foreign exchange movements on the translation of US dollar denominated amounts in the balance sheet in the first half year, as opposed to gains seen in the second half of last year, is expected to pull profitability for the full year below that reported in 2008. One would hope that they would be the beneficiary of more public sector and social housing development in respect of their stormwater products in due course. | masurenguy | |
02/9/2009 07:50 | Not pleasant interims. | lpf | |
27/8/2009 15:46 | As Rivaldo says above - a bit of demand has a disproportionate effect on the price ! | masurenguy | |
27/8/2009 15:17 | I can confirm the 10K was a buy, as it was me! I was suprised by the uplift it caused | wowy | |
27/8/2009 10:00 | Mas, you'd have to say that 10k was a Buy from earlier, as that would be the catalyst for the rise. If so we could be back to the good old days, where any demand at all caused a decent rise. | rivaldo | |
27/8/2009 09:40 | I guess we'll have to wait and see. No trades at all on AIM so far today but a 10K Sell @95p and a 1K Buy @ 102.9p on PLUS. | masurenguy | |
27/8/2009 08:45 | Evidently I spoke too soon - perhaps our seller has cleared off! | rivaldo | |
26/8/2009 13:37 | Hi Mas - as no Notice of Results RNS has been published I've confirmed with the company that you're correct. Results will be out next Wednesday. Looking at recent trades it seems to me that the new Fairfax coverage has encouraged some buying interest, but that this has mostly mopped up shares from a seller or sellers. I'm not expecting fireworks here from the historics. But perhaps reasonable results given the downturn, plus an optimistic outlook confirming the positive AGM statement, will spark some buying given the low P/E etc etc. | rivaldo | |
23/8/2009 09:04 | I wonder whether we will see any upward move in the share price this week ahead of the interims, which are due in 10 days time on Wednesday September 2nd ! | masurenguy |
