A spate of illegal dumping has caused the Whakatāne District Council to put out a plea to identify the people responsible.
Council workers have found illegal waste dumped at many locations, yet hotspots have been found along Tahuna Rd and Cutler Cres.
Many have been littered with basic household rubbish, however, some are using these sites as drop-off points for unwanted whiteware and electrics.
Both today and on Monday, workers were outraged to find illegal dumping taking place in the exact same location in Awatapu Lagoon.
