Disgrace of 1000 waste spills at Campbeltown plant

Postby Kintyre Forum News » Sun Feb 10, 2008 3:18 pm

Ironically enough something we were going to cover given the on-going saga and the eye sore that exists on the esplanade.

Here is the link to an interesting article in today's Sunday Herald.

I like Scottish Water's comment saying that it has "operational issues" with the system. Understatement of the year I think.

What is annoying about all this is that SW have been prosecuted and fined in the past. What is the point of that? SW is a public agency so the fines are effectively coming from the public purse. Now the EU are probably going to prosecute - will that mean more fines? Surely the money would be better spent on fixing the system?

With the ever increasing rainfall we get in this part of the world a solution should be of the utmost importance.

And finally, what a waste of space SEPA are - they only ever go after the easy targets... :roll:
