Environmental Responsibility - Humber River

The request was successful.

Dear Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs,

Please can you advise which authority has environmental responsibility for the River Humber, including shipping emissions and associated new developments. Has Associated British Ports, who appear to manage the River Humber, environmental responsibility for shipping emissions?

Yours faithfully,

James Lewis
