TRASHING WILL NOT STOP ABSENT ENFORCEMENT
By Pete Ellis

The continued pleas of Cegelske to stop trashing our highway areas go unanswered and unresolved. Needed is a strict and diligent enforcement effort with hidden camera monitors, well planned and co-ordinated patrols and much higher maximum fine levels to severely punish those who transgress.

Takes money to enforce and diligence to pursue with a need for sufficient investigation and effort to provide an evidentiary background sufficient to convict those who perpetrate these wanton discard problems.
