Incident Response Service
We provide immediate and ongoing advice and representation where untoward incidents occur, typically unintended releases of pollutants into rivers and streams, disposal of hazardous waste in unregulated conditions, contamination of the drinking water supply, or instances of dust, noise and vibration exceeding licensed thresholds. We are experienced at handling the demands and entitlements of enforcement authorities, typically the Environment Agency, local Environmental Health or Drinking Water Inspectorate.
We regularly appear as advocates for clients at all levels of the criminal justice system in defence and mitigation of charges arising out of environmental incidents. Some industries by nature suffer considerable numbers of untoward events every year, and among our clients are several - particularly in the waste and water sectors - for each of whom we have appeared half a dozen times a year or so throughout the past decade.
For more information on the Incident Response services we provide or for details of how you could sign up to the service please contact us by telephone 0207 489 2035 or email Mark Scoggins
