It was highlighted by the public spirited citizen that construction waste and other refuse are regularly dumped at the location.
According to the Citizen Reporter, several notices urging the public not to dump garbage at the site were erected at the location over the past years, which litter bugs have continually ignored.
Meanwhile, it is hope that the new Litter Prevention Regulations which will be enforced by the Environmental Protection Agency with increased penalties from $5,000 to $50,000 will be a deterrent to habitual litter bugs.
