31 May 2007 - Bangor company fined £2,500 for pollution

MMM Design and Build Ltd, 11 Bridge St, Bangor was fined £2,500 plus costs at Bangor Magistrates' Court yesterday for a breach of the Water Order.

The Company pleaded guilty to a breach of consent under Article 9 of the Water (Northern Ireland) Order 1999 on 10 July 2006.

A sewage pumping station serving a housing development at Shaftesbury Road, Bangor, for which the company was the consent holder, had broken down and the telemetry alarm system had failed to alert the company that the pumps were not working.

This resulted in raw sewage being discharged to a watercourse.
