July 10 (Reuters) - British water regulator Ofwat said on Thursday that it has proposed a 24-million-pound ($32.7 million) enforcement package on South West Water for "failures in managing its wastewater treatment works and network".

Pennon PNN.L, which owns the South West Water utility, said in a separate statement it would work on reducing spills and address environmental pollution by 2030 under the enforcement package, which was in lieu of penalty of 19 million pounds.
