To limit public health hazards that negatively impact property values, Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful and the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection have launched the Illegal Dump Free PA Program. It will help communities curb illegal dumping by exposing those who commit this crime.
To avoid costly cleanups that average $3,000 per site, grant recipients will receive, as a temporary loan, three cameras to capture evidence of illegal dumping. Equipment includes wireless technology to capture photos of vehicle license plates and illegal dumpers, even at night. One camera uses wireless technology to email pictures when triggered, providing almost instant results.
Municipalities, counties and nonprofit organizations can apply for grants here.
If you know of an illegal dump or graffiti site, you can anonymously report it here.
Each township in Cameron County offers a cleanup day every year.
If you have other items to dispose of, call the township office you are located in to discuss options.
