Event description:

There is no forum for Victorian land managers to discuss illegal waste.

This forum will bring together those concerned with illegal waste in Victoria to understand the scale and impacts of illegal waste, plus how recent introduction of the Environment Protection Act 2017 and increased landfill levies are influencing illegal waste.

Attendees will see the first release of the Litter Enforcement Officer Network’s 2019-20 Annual Illegal Waste Survey results and see some impacts on state agencies, councils and other land managers.

Then attendees will participate in a moderated discussion to explore the issues they face with illegal waste. This discussion will be used to guide a development of a program to address illegal dumping for interested parties to participate in.
