clear the rubbish at the Averies site, now why does that not surprise me? (Adver, January 19) It is an easy way of getting away without paying, to go into administration. I was told by someone at the Adver officer that the Council own the land at Cheney Manor site, but do not own the Marshgate site, so why is the council going to have to pay for the clearing up of the Marshgate site?
Because, and I quote, it is not the responsibility of the Environment Agency to clear the site of waste that would fall to the landowner of the company.
I was told that a member of the Averies family owned the land at the Marshgate site. So why would we be expected to pay for the clearance?
It should never have been allowed to store that much rubbish in the first place.
