Company Fined For Contravening Discharge Consent
A County Tyrone company has been fined £7,000 at Dungannon Magistrates’ Court today for contravening the conditions of a discharge consent.

The charges followed the collection of a sample on 3 June 2014 from Roughan Care Limited, Newmills, Dungannon. It showed that the suspended solids content was 262 milligrammes per litre against a consent limit of 120 milligrammes per litre. The effluent was, therefore, judged as being unsuitable for discharge.
