Court hits dumpers hard (NSW)

Jan 16, 2024

The Western Weekender reports that the NSW EPA has successfully prosecuted Ghossayn group and its director, George Ghossayn, due to unlawful transport and disposal of more than 1200 tonnes of waste and fined Dani Geagea, director of demolition and waste removal company Masters Civil, for conspiring with others to create false waste delivery dockets. EPA Priority Compliance and Investigations Director Greg Sheehy stated, “Our investigations found that the fill transported to the Luddenham property contained 379 tonnes of asbestos waste and a hydrocarbon called benzo(a)pyrene, which we understand to be a carcinogen”, warning companies and individuals not to falsify documents to evade disposal fees.
