i don't know the british legal system very well. i know statesia. does this translate across the pond to informing him he's been indicted?

Possibly barely even that. As far as I can tell from Google, "indictment" in the US involves a whole process with a grand jury and stuff and implies the judicial system has already been kicked into action. This notice is someone at the Environmental Agency telling him to get his shit together. A more direct parallel would be the EPA telling someone that they were under investigation.
