Thames Water fined £3. 3m over river sewage
By Tanya Gupta & PA MediaBBC News
Thames Water has been fined £3. 3m after it discharged millions of litres of undiluted sewage into Two Rivers , killing More Than 1,400 fish.
There was a " significant and lengthy" release of sewage from treatment works near Gatwick Airport in October 2017 into the Gatwick Stream in Sussex and River Mole in Surrey, a court heard.
Thames Water admitted four charges in an Environment Agency prosecution.
It was handed the fine during sentencing at Lewes Crown Court .
The Company , which serves 15 million households, faces concerns over its future amid mounting debt.
Judge Christine Laing KC said said she believed Thames Water had shown a " deliberate attempt" to mislead the Environment Agency over The Incident , such as by omitting water readings and submitting a report to the regulator denying responsibility.
'Faulty switch'During the hearing, The Court had been told by Sailesh Mehta, prosecuting, that the sewage spill was an " accident waiting to happen".
Defending Thames Water , Lisa Roberts KC said: " It shouldn't have happened and Thames deeply regrets The Event . "
She claimed there was a " faulty switch" in The Storm pump that caused The Incident which " could not have reasonably been foreseen".
The record fine against a water company for illegal discharge of sewage is held by Southern Water at £90m.
That fine followed in a case brought by the Environment Agency in 2021.
