“The Environment Agency’s ‘compliance egg-timer’ is definitely running so, if you haven’t acted yet to ensure environmental compliance, I suggest the sooner you review your golf course maintenance operations the better!”
clout for less outlay, increasing the flexibility of the EA and enabling it to become more proactive in monitoring and dealing with pollution incidents. “Variable Monetary Penalties may be used instead of criminal sanctions for offences where imposing a financial penalty may change offender behaviour and deter others and/or lead to faster resolution.”
Criminal fines limit increased to £50,000
In addition to the new civil powers granted, the County Court criminal fine limit for fines imposed under the existing criminal sanctions has been increased from £20,000 to £50,000.
Installing a recycling wash system removes the risk
There are two types of wash down systems available; above ground and below ground. Both perfom equally well and, in many cases, the choice of which system to install comes down to personal preference.
In addition to providing a superb wash
facility, both systems treat the potential pollutants arising from golf course maintenance operations - equipment wash-off, refueling, degreasing, chemical mixing and any other potentially polluting activities. All can be undertaken on the pad, removing any risk of groundwater pollution arising
from the routine activities of the maintenance facility.
Installing a wash down system could not be easier, often retro-fitting into an existing area to minimise the budget. it ensures environmental compliance, reduces water usage by a massive 90%, tidies up one of the worst aspects of golf course maintenance and will, importantly, save you a potentially costly visit from the Environmental Agency. Just imagine what new machinery you could purchase with £50,000!
