Council urges public to help prevent illegal Hallowe’en bonfires
As Hallowe’en approaches, Waterford City & County Council is reminding the public not to supply waste materials such as pallets, tyres, or old furniture for use in bonfires.
Uncontrolled burning of waste is illegal and releases toxic pollutants that are harmful to both human health and the environment.
The Council is asking residents to stay vigilant and report any stockpiling of combustible materials. If you notice waste being gathered for bonfires, please contact the Council’s Waste Enforcement Section on 0818 10 20 20.
