49 pollution convictions in November
*
Environmental Protection Department

The Environmental Protection Department recorded 49 convictions in November for breaches of anti-pollution legislation.

 

Twenty-five were for air pollution, 14 for waste disposal, eight for noise control, and two for water pollution.

 

The heaviest fine in November was $50,000, assessed against a company that discharged waste/polluting matter into the water control zone.

 

Two men who exported controlled waste without permits and failed to engage the service of waste collectors were each sentenced to 320 hours of community service.
