Default Southern Water dumped raw sewage into sea for 8 years to save money

https://www.theguardian.com/environm...-sea-for-years




[Company awaits sentencing
after admitting 51 violations in
biggest-ever Environment Agency investigation]


Criminal that they are still doing right now


[Southern Water discharged enormous volumes
of raw sewage into protected coastal waters for
nearly six years causing “very considerable environmental
damage” because it was cheaper
than treating it, a court has heard.]

This was “the worst case brought by the
Environment Agency in its history”, the court was told.
Southern Water had acted “deliberately” and
had reaped “considerable financial advantage”
by allowing the discharges.

The Environment Agency’s biggest ever
investigation uncovered how the privately
owned company dumped untreated sewage
into seas that were home to shellfish beds
and were supposed to be some of the
most protected marine environments
in the country.
