Trump’s Scotland Golf Course Accused of Sewage Violations
Documents reveal that Donald Trump’s Aberdeenshire golf course has violated sewage contamination limits 14 times since 2019, with eight incidents categorized as “upper tier” events. These breaches, identified by the Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (Sepa), involved exceeding limits for contaminants such as biochemical oxygen demand, suspended solids, and ammoniacal nitrogen. While Trump International maintains their system has not caused environmental damage, Sepa reports that the breaches have happened. The golf course, which includes a hotel and restaurants, built the course in 2012 despite Sepa’s initial objections.
