The new taskforce, which includes former police detectives, will work closely with enforcement partners to close illegal waste sites and gather intelligence. The taskforce will be supported by up to £5 million of Environment Agency funding for the first two years.

The EA’s chief executive’s message to all illegal waste site operators is to watch out!
