Environmental Liability Directive 2004/35/EC

In summary this new legislation applies the ‘polluter pays’ principle, to prevent and remedy environmental damage. It applies to all businesses large and small alike with unlimited fines and remediation costs. Directors can also be imprisoned for negligence under the Directive.

Note there is specific mention in the Directive that companies are obliged to use proactive prevention techniques and this fact has resulted in spill and firewater containment becoming a key part of a companies ISO14001 compliance audit.

What is Firewater Containment?

Firewater is the cocktail of runoff from a fire which will include the water used to douse the fire, along with any pollutants which end up in the runoff.  Chemicals and manufacturing products, and even stock will melt, or be destryoed ina  fire.  These will all end up in the runoff, and as such be polluting to the receiving waters.

Firewater containment will isolate your site, from discharging the runoff.  Manys sites will have to do this as part of their discharge permit, or as part of their continuous site development.
