Source details

Source Drainage Systems - It appears highly likely that a person associated with a task, still to be determined (ongoing follow up) has disposed of a volume of waste oil in a drain marked with a 'oily waste' label that has for a short period overwhelmed the drains capacity resulting overflowing of the drain to a level that has seen overflow to sea.
