Making illegal discharges into Severn Trent Water's sewer network has cost Arrow Environmental Services more than £60,000 in fines and costs
This is the second time that the company, which provides environmental services to the construction industry, has been successfully prosecuted by Severn Trent Water.
Martin Kane, chief engineer for Severn Trent Water, says that, even after the legal notice was served on Arrow, the firm was been found to have committed further offences of discharging effluent above the legal limits.
