Pollution


The aim of the Pollution team is to protect and improve the environment and the Environmental Health of the residents of the borough.
 
The Pollution team deal with a large range of environmental protection issues affecting both domestic and commercial/industrial premises and their occupants throughout the borough, namely:

  • Pollution Prevention and Control - We issue permits which control pollution from certain industrial activities
  • Contaminated Land - We have developed a strategy to identify all potentially contaminated sites in the borough
  • Air Quality - We constantly review the air quality of the borough
  • Nuisance Complaints - We can investigate your nuisance complaints
  • Drainage - We offer a domestic drain clearing service at a fixed price.  We can also get involved in investigating drain problems and having them remedied by the  people responsible
  • Dog Warden - We patrol the borough in search of stray dogs. We also issue and enforce animal welfare licences
  • Pest Control - We offer a pest control treatment service for a variety of public health pests at a competitive price.  We also treat rats for free
  • Flooding - We have no direct responsibility for flooding. We will however, try to ensure  that people do fulfil their responsibilities, and offer help in an emergency
