Unauthorised Moorings

Elmbridge Council has received an update from the Environment Agency (EA).

The EA has instigated legal proceedings, and has ongoing cases against a number of boat owners for failing to comply with “direction to move” notices which they have served, and other offences. The EA stresses that must must follow due legal process, and the timescales can be considerable, especially in complex cases. Dates for the hearings will be set by the court in consultation with the legal advisors for both parties, but the EA anticipate that dates will be set early in the New Year.
