正文(英文) | Vehicles seized at road stops in Dartford and GraveshamMulti-agency operation sees 36 vehicles stopped and waste collectors’ paperwork checked. Environment Agency officers - working with Dartford and Gravesham Borough councils, Kent Police Rural Task Force and the Dartford and Gravesham Community Policing teams - stopped 36 waste vehicles and seized 8 of the vehicles while checking their paperwork was in order. The Environment Agency was checking vehicles in the Dartford and Gravesham area, to check they had a valid waste carrier’s licence and waste transfer note describing what waste they were carrying, where they picked the waste up from and where they were taking it to. Waste collectors must have this paperwork as part of their ‘duty of care’ to be able to collect waste legally. The Environment Agency and its partners seized the 8 vehicles for various offences such as no valid insurance. They also found a number of waste offences, including not being registered as a waste carrier. The Environment Agency will be taking further action against any operators that had no valid waste carrier’s licence or were not compliant with their duty of care. Matt Higginson, Environment Manager for the Environment Agency, said:
Any investigation by the Environment Agency that leads to a successful conviction could see those responsible facing extensive fines and even a prison sentence. Anyone who suspects illegal waste activity is reminded to report it to our 24 hour hotline by calling 0800 80 70 60, or anonymously contacting Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Check your waste collector’s waste carriers registration or call 03708 506 506.
