Environmental Enforcement Agent Services

Overview

The Council is awarding a contract for the provision of Enforcement Agent Services in a concessionary contract arrangement, specifically to provide enforcement services in enviro-crimes. The service will deliver a cleaner environment with a focus on fly tipping and litter reductions in the borough. A key aspect of the service being ensuring those that commit enviro-crime are brought to account and realise that leaving waste in the open is more likely than not to result in enforcement action and that this is publicised to maximise the impact of the service. The services are required to be performed within the district for environmental offences by identifiable uniformed officer(s) trained to the minimum standards. The aims and objectives and service priorities of this contract are: • Issue Fixed Penalty Notices when offences are committed. • Ensure an effective billing and reminder process, with full support should cases require escalation as a result of non-payment. • Assist in the reduction of offences overall. • Payment of a percentage to the Council from the Fixed Penalty Notices issued.
