Asbestos
Asbestos dumping can be significant health risk that should be reported immediately.
Asbestos was used up until the mid-1980s due to its resistance to heat, fire, water and chemicals as well as its affordability.
If asbestos is disturbed, it can release dangerous fine particles of dust containing asbestos fibres.
Illegal dumping of asbestos is a substantial hazard to residents. It becomes a health risk when asbestos fibres are released into the air and breathed in.
