Report a pollution problem

How to report bonfires, smells, light and other pollution.

We can act if the problem is witnessed to be a ‘statutory nuisance’. This means that it happens more than once, is built up over a period of time and affects you in your own property or premises.

We cannot investigate one-off occurrences.
