[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 4387886, member: 2119"] Can't quite believe there are a dozen or so kerosene tanks in this vicinity alone with no bunds, no inspection or maintenance schedule, dodgy pipes running underground at garden fork depth to the boiler, rainwater drains nearby and the water authority shows little interest in tracing leaks. The EA don't want to know at all. Yet on the farm everything has to be bunded and the EA inspect every 4 years. Same with septic tanks, never cleaned out, sewage running into watercourses yet if we did that with manure on the farm they'd fine us heavily. If they really are serious about getting water pollution down they would tighten up on domestic systems but they won't do that because it would upset the voters. They will keep wrongly blaming farmers instead (for phosphates in particular) as they are easy targets. Hypocritical and a joke. [/QUOTE]
