Dumping solid waste at unapproved sites is illegal statewide. New Jersey's Solid Waste Management Act carries civil penalties up to $25,000 per violation, plus criminal charges for large-scale dumping, enforced by NJDEP and county and local health authorities.
Illegal dumping is governed by the New Jersey Solid Waste Management Act, N.J.S.A. 13:1E-1 et seq. Department rules on solid-waste collection and disposal have the force of law and are enforced by NJDEP, every local board of health, and county health departments (N.J.S.A. 13:1E-9). Knowingly transporting solid waste to an unapproved disposal site is a criminal offense with fines reaching $50,000 depending on volume. Municipalities in Camden County also adopt their own anti-dumping and littering ordinances. Report illegal dumping to your municipality, the Camden County Division of Environmental Affairs (which handles litter cleanup and enforcement), or NJDEP's Stop Illegal Dumping program.
Civil administrative penalty up to $25,000 per violation and $2,500 for each day it continues; criminal fines up to $50,000 for large-volume dumping.
