River Trent escapes a serious pollution

Almost £10,000 in fines for a water company that polluted the River Trent
On 17 September 2009, Severn Trent Water Limited pleaded guilty at Stafford Magistrates’ Court to causing sewage pollution to enter the River Trent.
For the Environment Agency, Amy Jacobs told the court that Strongford Sewage Treatment Works treats sewage and trade effluent from Stoke-on-Trent and the surrounding area. The average flow through the works is 150 million litres per day with the final treated effluent discharged into the River Trent. Both up and downstream of the works the water is of a good quality.
On 12 January 2009 the Environment Agency observed the final effluent coming from the plant to be a brown colour and noted a sulphurous smell. Samples showed that the dissolved oxygen, used to maintain aquatic life, was significantly reduced. This caused a significant deterioration in water quality. The water was found to be in lowest band on the Environment Agency water quality scale. Luckily with water temperatures being low there was limited impact on aquatic life.
Speaking after the case an Environment Agency officer involved in the investigation said: “This incident could have potentially wiped out wildlife near to the works. It is vitally important that companies have measures in place to ensure that pollution incidents such as this cannot happen. Where companies do not take their responsibilities seriously we will not hesitate to prosecute.”
The cause of this incident was a build of activated-sludge, which is used in the sewage treatment process, and heavy rain causing the treatment tanks to overflow.
In mitigation, the court heard that it had been the only breach of conditions at the Strongford site. The company took immediate action and the overflows were stopped on the afternoon of the incident.
The charges were brought by the Environment Agency under Section 85 (6) of the Water Resources Act 1991. Severn Trent Water was fined £6,700 and ordered to pay costs of £2,777.80, along with a £15 victim surcharge.
