Additionally, actually, when I try this there seems to be a problem with the stratum variable created.

Ignoring the issue of relative weighting of the 3 survey for a moment, I ran:
gen svyweight = v005/1000000
gen survey=1 if year==2006
replace survey=2 if year==2011
replace survey=3 if year==2016
egen clust=group(survey v021)
egen stratum=group(survey v023)

Then I can successfully run this:

svyset clust [pw=svyweight],
svy: reg HAZ X $CONTROLS

But THIS does not work, when I add the stratum:
svyset clust [pw=svyweight], strata(stratum)
svy: reg HAZ X $CONTROLS

So there seems to be a problem with creating the stratum as a grouped variable in that way. Can you please advise? Thanks!
