Illegal dumping is a big issue that not only pollutes the environment and costs Bathurst Regional Council and ratepayers money, it makes the region look untidy. You can help council and the NSW Environment Protection Authority catch offenders by reporting illegal dumping when it occurs. Just search “Report to EPA” on your smart device, or call council on 6333 6511. Together, we can keep our region beautiful.
