Pollution - Other
The Pollution Control Section is part of the Environmental
Health Service and carries out a number of key pollution related
services.
 |
Water Sampling
We monitor the quality of all private supplies, although depending
on how many people use the supply, this may not happen often. (A
private supply may be provided by a borehole, spring or well etc
and is not water supplied by a water company). We currently sample
certain swimming pools and paddling pools (seasonal) for public
health safety in respect of water quality. |
 |
General Pollution Complaints
We investigate problems of smells, dust and other emissions from
all types of premises and smoke from chimneys or bonfires. |
 |
Consultation
We also receive consultations from other parts of the Council on
planning applications and entertainment licences. |
