Fly-tipper hit with fine
Published: 11/04/2018
Copeland Borough Council has fined a householder after waste was illegally tipped on a picturesque rural road.
The council served a £250 fixed penalty notice on the resident, who claimed they had paid a 'man with a van' to take away the waste, believing it would be dealt with properly.
The extensive fly-tip, which contained a mixture of general household waste, was left on the fell road between Wath Brow and Brisco Mount in March.
