Paper and packaging group Sappi has pleaded guilty to contravening environmental law by exceeding sulphur dioxide emissions at its Saiccor Mill in Umkomaas, KwaZulu-Natal, according to the National Prosecution Authority. | News24_Business

The NPA said the Scottburgh Regional Court imposed an R8 million fine on Sappi for the emissions between July 2012 to December 2014. The fine, however, was suspended on condition that the company comply with a confiscation order and pay R5 million to the eThekwini municipality and R3 million to the Criminal Assets Recovery Account by 28 April.

"They mentioned that they attended to such problems when they arose in an attempt to remedy the situation and operate with the parameters of their [atmospheric emission] license." "The agreement follows extensive engagements that commenced in 2021, after Sappi was first notified of findings by the EMI during 2017."
