As part of the LIFE SMART Waste project, the “Drive out waste crime” campaign has been launched by the project lead partner, the Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA), to tackle illegal cross-border waste disposal – when waste from one UK nation is dumped in another. The Northern Ireland Environment Agency, Natural Resources Wales and the Environment Agency in England are acting as partners on the new initiative, along with police forces across the UK and a number of transport, haulage and freight trade associations. The campaign will involve three types of action requiring collaboration between agencies and nations: road stops, site visits and awareness raising.

The Drive out waste crime flyer is available on the SEPA website: English version
