Colorado county ‘cameras up’ to nab dumpers

  • Written by Waste360
  • 15th June 2020

Officials established a trash task force last year to address the county’s persistent dumping problem. In addition to the recent installation of cameras, that group has been working to educate the community about proper, legal ways to dispose of trash.
