Investigation Launched Into Large Amount Of Asbestos Dumped At Morisset

BY IAN CROUCH

Authorities are asking for help from the public to track down those responsible for dumping a large amount of asbestos-contaminated building waste at Morisset.

The asbestos was found in about 10 tonnes of waste which was dumped on a local street sometime between 10.00pm on Wednesday and 4.30 yesterday morning.

It's believed the demolition waste came from a fire-damaged property in Newcastle or the Central Coast.

The Regional Illegal Dumping Squad have taken photos of the waste in the hope someone will be able to identify where it's come from.
