THE Point Lonsdale Civic Association (PLCA) is asking residents to keep a lookout for any trucks dumping unauthorised waste at the Point Lonsdale Lighthouse Reserve.<\/p>\n
The PLCA stated that members had been alerted by a nearby resident that there had been large trucks that had made a few unauthorised dumps during the past week.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have just been alerted by a close nearby resident, that unauthorised Green Waste dumping has been taking place at the Point Lonsdale Lighthouse Reserve,\u201d the group stated.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere has been a stockpile of waste being collected and aggregating at the PLLHR by the Green Army who are undertaking Vegetation Management works.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis has been a normal part of the works there, and the Borough of Queenscliffe are aware of this.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is scheduled to be taken away soon.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, the PLCA said several large trucks that were not the Borough\u2019s authorised contractor, or the Green Army, had been dumping additional unauthorised waste.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat is a concern is that this waste composition may\/may not be green waste, and the fire hazard danger it presents.<\/p>\n
\u201cTherefore, please keep a look out for any unauthorised dumping on the site, if you see any trucks on the PLLHR site dumping waste, please take down the registration number\/details and phone the Borough immediately on 5258 1377 and report this activity.\u201d<\/p>\n
The group warned not to approach the dumpers\/trucks as they became quite agitated when approached initially by the resident that noticed the dumping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
