Water pollution law is the most developed of the pollution control systems and is a large and complex area of environmental law, with numerous laws at international, EU and domestic level. The regulation at these levels deals with a wide range of issues, such as water quality standards, water pollution control, fisheries, navigation, flood, coastal protection and marine pollution with a wide range of water pollution offences. A comprehensive account of water and waste legislation, this book includes: - A detailed interpretation of the relevant statutory provisions and associated case law. - The impact of Brexit on current regulations. - Discussions surrounding UK desalination plants, end of life vehicles and nature conservation. - The changes in international regulations and the impact that this has on UK water and waste regulation. The detailed treatment of the issues involved will enable practitioners to feel confident in what is a complicated area of law. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Environmental Law online service.
