The Environment Agency are visiting businesses in the catchment area to offer advise on septic tanks to ensure they are correctly maintained in order to minimise the chance of any water pollution. Love your Lakes offers domestic cases advice on how to look after septic tanks to ensure that they are not leaking phosphates into the ground and nearby water sources. It is up to the individual to maintain their septic tank. If you are found contaminating water supplies because your septic tank is not correctly maintained you may be liable for a fine so it’s for your sake as well as the environment’s that you take good care of your septic tank!
