NJ DEP Public Shaming Illegal Dumpers

[Eskimo]

.

I though this topic might be interesting to Andy in light of his dedication to keeping our river systems clean and free of trash.

In a way, we are all victims of illegal dumpers because we have to see the materials they dump in our outdoor spaces . Important access points to our favorite fishing spots have been closed due to illegal dumping.

In an effort to discourage illegal dumping, the NJ Department of Environmental Protection is posting the names and pictures of people charged with illegal dumping in our outdoor spaces like wildlife management areas, state parks, and the D&R Canal.

Click through the tabs at the top of the webpage to read about the cases organized by the potential fine and click on the picture to move on to the next case.

you gotta be a real shithead to illegally dump into the woods or rivers, especially when there are so many open dumpsters behind huge strip malls and construction sites!

LOVE IT! Great use of GIS technology.

If you have a smart phone be sure to setup the app/web browser so that you can report any illegal activity. http://www.stopdumping.nj.gov/

I am determined to catch the dirt bag that keeps dumping construction debris along the Rockaway River!
