‘Negligent’ company Think Environmental to pay £48,000

Think Environmental, operator of a waste bio drying site in Northamptonshire which burnt down last year, has been fined a total of £33,000 and full costs of £15,000 for failing to stop smells from the site and failing to remove illegally buried waste.Wellingborough Magistrates’ Court heard today (Mon) that nearby residents felt forced to stay indoors because of the smells and could not enjoy their gardens, sometimes feeling sick. They said the smell was there most of the time and Mr Gerard Reynolds, sole active director for the company, had failed to accept there was a problem.
