Dumping waste in Victoria's State forests isn't just irresponsible, it's a crime.
We're working with the Conservation Regulator Victoria to catch the offenders and end illegal waste dumping in our forests.
When you're caught, you could face penalties of up to $800,000 for individuals, $3.9 million for businesses, 5 years' imprisonment, or both.
We all have a part to play. If you see someone dumping in State forests or national parks, report it to Crime Stoppers Victoria on 1800 333 000 or at crimestoppersvic.com.au
