Judge gives green light to Fish Legal to challenge Southern Water over Test diesel pollution

Campaigner ,Fish Legal, has secured the right to bring a private prosecution against Southern Water for enabling diesel pollution to enter the River Test in Hampshire.


The contaminant in question originates from a third party, but enters the chalk stream via a Southern Water outfall at the Nursling industrial estate near Southampton.


A judge ruled Fish Legal could proceed with its challenge. Reports suggest the case will be heard in February.
