Keldgate is one of four borehole sites in Hull from which water is abstracted from the Hull Aquifer (the region's groundwater resource). The pumping equipment at this site is old and employs dated technology, resulting in inefficient control of pumping. As a consequence, the site is currently undergoing refurbishment.
