Reported 7 months ago
A man named Ruan rented public riverbank land in Guoxing Township, Nantou County, Taiwan under the pretense of farming, but instead allowed 7 businesses to dump approximately 2700 tons of waste, including scrap metal and plastic, within a span of 2 weeks last October. The case is being investigated for violating the Waste Disposal Act, which carries a penalty of 1 to 5 years of imprisonment and fines up to 15 million NTD. Authorities discovered the illegal dumping based on surveillance footage and the involved parties are facing legal consequences.
