A new water treatment facility to supply clean, fresh drinking water for Merthyr Tydfil is set to be built.
Welsh Water has confirmed it proposes to construct a new, modern water treatment works on land north of Merthyr Tydfil and east of Trefechan.
The company say it's still finalising the details of the plans, but the site could cover up to 100 acres of land. To put that into perspective it would take around 4.53 football fields to fill up five acres of land, so it's a pretty huge space.
