The Waste Enforcement Association Australia will host the industry leading Australian Illegal Waste Conference in partnership with the Environment Protection Authority Victoria on October 18th 2023 at Jasper Hotel, Melbourne Victoria.
 

During a morning session, expert speakers will demonstrate proven and effective tools for reducing illegal waste while showcasing industry leading practices in waste regulation, investigation, and prosecution.  Attendees will hear from recognised experts in illegal waste management who will outline the fundamentals of regulatory programs and discuss techniques used for proactive management of emerging trends in illegal waste.
