Plastic incident at Camber

Just clearing up any misunderstanding about the plastic incident at Camber.

Rother District Council is the authority responsible for the foreshore and is in the lead on cleaning up the beach. Rother officers have worked promptly and tirelessly to bring in contractors with appropriate machinery and the Environment Agency is ready and willing to supply technical advice.

We are very grateful to all the volunteers who have helped with the clean-up and especially to Andy Dinsdale and Strandliners. Press reports indicate that Southern Water will be paying for the cost of beach cleaning and they have sent staff to help.

Councillor Andrew Mier
