Spire Homes B & S Decorators Ltd and Apollo polluting Rutland Waterways

Spire Homes polluting Rutland Waterways. Spire Homes Contractors each day pour gallons of water containing paint and adhesives down rain water drains. Water flowing from these drains does not flow to the sewer, it flows directly into rivers and streams around Rutland. I can not begin to imagine the harm this is causing the wildlife.

Yesterday I contacted Rutland County Council Environmental Health Department, although they were concerned they seem to be more worried I was suggesting  the pollution was being caused by local company Jeakins Weir, I assured the man it was not.

He said he would be passing on the information to the Environment Agency.

Spire Homes says it cares for the environment, I would disagree with that claim the recent destruction of hedges in our towns and villages is having a huge effect on birds. Only this week I find birds have nested in many of my ornamental shrubs and Ivy on wall.
