The
Polluter Pays
"The Polluter Pays" is a principle of environmental law
which was ratified in The Maastricht Treaty. Article 130R of the
Treaty provided that four environmental principles would define
the European policy on the environment. One of these principals
is that the polluter should pay. This principle provides that whenever
possible those who are responsible for causing or permitting pollution
should be liable for the clean up costs and the costs of enforcement.

management time which could more profitably spent attending to the
core business and can often end commercial relationships. That being
so is there not a justifiable reason for exploring the alternatives?
