Mr Turlough Breslan (54) of Maghery Road,
Portadown, was made the subject of a confiscation order of
£166,696.65 at Omagh Crown Court under the Proceeds of Crime
Act 2002.
During a site visit in August 2006, officers from the Northern
Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA)
discovered that Mr Breslan had been illegally keeping around
8,000 tonnes of controlled waste at Derrylea House, Derrylea
Road, Dungannon.
The waste, derived from an animal feed company in the Republic
of Ireland, was being kept without a waste management licence
being in place for the site. An inspection under warrant was
carried out in December 2006 - at which point, NIEA officers
interviewed Mr Breslan under caution.
Mr Breslan was also given a three-year conditional discharge
under Article 4 (1)b of the Waste and Contaminated Land Order
(Northern Ireland) 1997.
