Telford man ordered to pay £1k after failing to clear illegal waste
A Telford man has been ordered to pay £1,000 for failing to clear an illegal waste site following a prosecution by the Environment Agency.
At Telford Magistrates Court on Monday, August 11, Brian Woods, 70, of Limekiln Bank, St Georges, Telford, pleaded guilty to failing to comply with a court order to clear waste from a site on Granville Road, Donnington Wood.
He had previously admitted, at a hearing on June 16, to running a waste operation without a permit, contrary to Environmental Permitting Regulations.
For that offence, he received a 12-month community order, with a requirement to complete 100 hours of unpaid work.
He was also ordered to pay £1,470 in costs and £114 victim surcharge.
