<p>In the last 12 months the Environment Agency (EA) has received six reports of illegal
waste disposal in the London Borough of Enfield. There were three reports of small-scale
burning which were all referred to the council, and where two addresses were identified
as carrying out burning, letters were sent. There was one small-scale fly tipping
incident in the N9 area which was also referred to Enfield Council due to the impact
on the highways, and two major fly tipping incidents in the N11 and N18 areas. The
EA currently has no outstanding investigations in the illegal disposal of waste in
the Enfield area.</p><p> </p><p>The EA continues to work closely with internal and
external stakeholders across London and the Southeast to initiate partnership solutions
to the multi-faceted issues we deal with, often involving significant investigations
of various strands to not only disrupt criminal activity but to hold to account those
responsible.</p><p><em> </em></p><p>In addition, local authorities are required to
report fly-tipping incidents and enforcement actions to Defra, which we publish annually
