Adrian Mulgrew was fined £10,000 after being convicted of multiple counts of waste offending.
Mr Mulgrew pleaded guilty at Dungannon Magistrates' Court to 10 different charges of waste offending. The offences occurred at a site he owned in Galbally.
Officers from the Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA) had first visited the unlicensed site back in July 2016. They found large mounds of crushed glass and End of Life Vehicles (ELVs), as well as associated scrap metal parts on the site. From August 2016, through to January 2019, a further 10 visits took place. These revealed that whilst Mr Mulgrew had, in fact, removed both the ELVs and the crushed glass, other construction and demolition waste had been added to the site, and burning of waste had also taken place on site.
