Water companies hit with disproportionate number of pollution fines
More than 80% of the fines dished out by the Environment Agency through prosecutions and other enforcement actions were levied at the water sector in 2022. That is despite water and wastewater firms being responsible for just 9% of serous pollution incidents, according to Utility Week’s analysis of government figures. Founder of Stormwater Shepherds Jo Bradley said that the fines represent the disproportionate way that the Environment Agency regulates different sectors.
