Now come on who had a fiver on that outcome
There was some wishful thinking that the pollution source was the EoES but that was always clutching at straws.
As soon as they didn't identify the source quickly (Investigation was launched in December, the pollutant passed through in a short period of time) then it was just going nowhere with only one outcome, and here it is:
Source of pollution that killed thousands of Peterborough fish near Ferry Meadows unable to be found - Investigation was launched in December after more than 100,000 fish died in the River Nene
Investigators looking into the death of thousands of fish in the River Nene in Peterborough in December have been unable to find the source of the pollution.
Countless fish were found dead in the river near Goldie Meadows at Ferry Meadows in December, causing an environmental catastrophe, after pollution leaked into the water.
An investigation into the cause of the deaths was launched, in a bid to find where the chemicals came.
However, today, the Environment Agency have revealed the investigation has been unable to find a cause.
A spokesperson for the Environment Agency said: “Environment Agency officers spent many hours over the past few weeks investigating the source of the pollution in the River Nene at the end of last year, taking samples, and visiting a large number of locations. Unfortunately, we believe that the pollutant that had such a significant impact on the fish, passed through in a short period of time and so we were unable to trace the source.
