Premium Content Subscriber only Four Central Queensland waste companies were “thrown on the scrap heap” by the Queensland Government after each being fined more than $32,000 and ordered to cease operations. Department of Environment and Science DES inspectors conducted a statewide blitz of waste operators over three months, culminating in more than $100,000 in infringement notices being issued. A DES spokeswoman said compliance officers visited a number of Central Queensland waste companies. “The department issued four direction notices (which require activities to immediately cease) and four penalty infringement notices – totalling $32,028,” the spokeswoman said. The names of the businesses could not be provided, the spokeswoman said, as they had 28 days to appeal the infringement notices.
