With an rush of self-righteous vigour I wrote to Nick Brown MP about the amount of pollutant allowed to flow into the Ouseburn etc etc....
here is the reply I have just received;
Dear Lyle Nicholson,
Thank you for your recent email to Nick Brown MP highlighting your concerns about the large amount of foam in the Ouseburn River recently. I am replying as Nick’s constituency assistant.
You are right that this is a dangerous pollutant in the river and seems to have come from drainage upstream which finds its way into the Ouseburn (which has historically been used for drainage purposes). I hope you will be pleased to hear that Nick has written to the Chief Executive of Newcastle City Council highlighting the matter and enquiring as to what the Council intends to do about it. Please find a copy of this letter attached to this email. I shall of course keep you in touch with any reply we receive.
For info, see below two links showing the coverage the BBC gave the incident, as well as the Environment Agency’s notice appealing for information from the public, if you have yet to come across these.
Thank you for taking the time to contact Nick about this matter and I hope to get back to you soon with a response from the Council.
With best wishes,
Yours sincerely,
David Hickling
Senior Caseworker
