A Mallusk man has been fined a total of £2,250 plus court
costs of £37 at Laganside Magistrates’ Court in Belfast for
waste offences.

Skips, without planning permission or a waste management licence.
When officers from the Northern Ireland Environment Agency
visited the site in July and August 2011, they found approximately
50 skips on the site, many of which contained controlled waste.
A number of deposits of controlled waste were also found on
the ground adjacent to the skips.
Waste types found on the site included construction and demolition
waste, ceramics, wood, metal, paper, window frames, glass,
household waste, tyres, furniture, electrical equipment and
carpet.
