Ofwat建议对Wessex水因污水溢漏、系统升级和监测而处以1 100万英镑的罚款。 Ofwat proposes £11M penalty against Wessex Water for sewage spills, demanding system upgrades and monitoring.

Ofwat提议对Wessex Water采取1 100万英镑的执法行动,原因是未能管理其废水系统,导致暴风雨溢出污水。 Ofwat has proposed an £11 million enforcement action against Wessex Water for failures in managing its wastewater system, leading to sewage spills from storm overflows. 这项处罚由公司及其马来西亚母公司YTL资助,无需向客户支付费用,要求进行升级,以减少溢漏,安装监测系统,并帮助地主封闭下水道管道。 The penalty, funded by the company and its Malaysian parent YTL without passing costs to customers, requires upgrades to reduce spills, install monitoring systems, and help landowners seal sewer pipes. 这标志着今年的第六次此类行动,使该部门的处罚总额超过2.4亿英镑。 This marks the sixth such action this year, bringing total penalties in the sector to over £240 million. 尽管Ofwat承认Wessex Water的积极努力,但它强调必须纠正其余的违规情况。 While Ofwat acknowledged Wessex Water’s proactive efforts, it stressed remaining breaches must be corrected. 在这项举措之后,水费上涨20%,引起人们对金融做法的关切。 The move follows a 20% water bill increase, raising concerns over financial practices.
