For industrial air pollution to be considered an offence, it must affect a persons quality of life. We will investigate smoke, fumes and smells coming from:
- Factories
- Building sites
- Entertainment venues.
What you can do
We would advise you to discuss your industrial air pollution issue with the person(s) responsible first. If you are still having problems, you can report it to us. We will then contact them to try and resolve the issue.
If our contact with them is unsuccessful, we may need to carry out a formal investigation and ask you to keep records of how you are affected by the pollution.
If the pollution issue is severe enough to be classed as a nuisance, we have the legal powers to settle the problem.
