Environmental Pollution

Pollution Control

Environmental Protection Act 1990

Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 we regulate certain industrial processes and maintain a public register of these.

We actively monitor the local environment for air quality, radiation, swimming pool and recreational water quality.

We also liaise closely with Planning Services regarding major developments within the borough.

Thurrock Council deals with complaints regarding:

  • Smells
  • Industrial noise
  • Grit and dust
  • Smoke and bonfires from industrial sites
  • Building sites (noise and bonfires)
  • General pollution matters
  • Refuse tips

What you can expect

  • We will provide clear and concise information and advice on pollution-related environmental matters, including asbestos problems.

  • If the complaint is not within our control we will liaise with the correct organisation on your behalf to ensure your complaint reaches the right person.
