are dutybound under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 to serve an
Abatement Notice on the person responsible for the nuisance. This will require
the nuisance to be abated and may require steps to be taken in order to achieve
this. Failure to comply with the requirements of an Abatement Notice is a
criminal offence and may result in an unlimited fine upon conviction.
