“Outstanding service. They were extremely careful delivering the extra large container into our driveway.” -- A. L. GARNER
Most efforts to curtail littering and illegal dumping, which occurs when someone offloads large items like full trash bags or tires on public or private property, are usurped by a lack of staffing and the inherent difficulty of spotting the crime. Any law enforcement official in the state has the ability to enforce littering and dumping laws. The state takes what C.R. McLeod, the Delaware Department of Transportation director of community relations, describes as a multiagency approach to litter policing. But the reality is those officers are already overworked and have more pressing issues dealing with public safety to focus on. There is also how these violations are committed. Most times, it is merely people who quickly toss something out a car window while driving down the highway. The act is so brief that it's difficult to spot and even more difficult to track down violators. The DNREC Natural Resources Police Environmental Crimes Unit has 10 employees that respond to public reports and monitor surveillance footage, but they also take care of hazardous waste and chemicals, work with police on meth labs, and enforce solid waste, wastewater and wetland code violations, among other jobs. "Lots of times, it’s extremely difficult to catch people in the act of dumping," Emory said. Illegal dumping often occurs on hard-to-access back roads or is cloaked by darkness. Without video evidence, it's especially difficult to prove. In 2017, DNREC had 27 people arrested for illegal dumping, with fines totaling $13,500. Both were five-year highs. State police made 71 arrests for littering and illegal dumping in 2017 (25 in New Castle County, 14 in Kent County and 32 in Sussex County). Wilmington issued 1,795 such citations for the 12-month period of January 2017 through June 2018, according to Licenses and Inspections Commissioner Jeff Starkey. Fines totaled $89,750. Over the past year to date, Newark issued 14 littering citations. A person found guilty of littering or illegal dumping can be fined no less than $50 and given up to eight hours of community service for a first offense. A second offense within two years draws a $75 fine and up to 25 hours of community service. If the offense occurred on or along a road adjacent to an area of scenic, historical or cultural interest, an additional penalty ...

He struck where the lamb was standing with a pickaxe, which released a stream of clean water. His act resulted in the conversion of a large number of local pagans to Christianity, which then resulted in his gruesome martyrdom by the Roman authorities. Saint Clement was tied to an anchor and thrown from a boat into the Black Sea. Legend recounts that every year, the waters part to reveal a divinely built shrine housing the saint’s bones.A relic of Pope Clement I is restored to the Westminster Cathedral (Mazur/www.catholicnews.org.uk)Apparently one bone got away. Housed in what appears to be a Victorian-era wax-sealed reliquary, the bone fragment of Pope Clement I was likely a family heirloom. The collection of such relics was an extremely popular practice in medieval Europe. Seeking miraculous healing or a conduit to Christ, pilgrims would travel across the continent for primary relics (i.e. the remains of saints) or secondary relics (i.e. things touched by saints). Through the centuries, such relics have been chipped away and disseminated across the globe, leading to a secondary market of fake relics which some say spurred the Reformation.“It could have been stolen, it could belong to someone and been accidentally thrown out,” University of Turku researcher Georges Kazan also told reporters. “If it’s authentic, it’s not the kind of thing you throw away.”...

RiverLink park master plan. The park, on land owned by Los Angeles County, is designated as passive recreational space, officials say – a place where visitors can bird watch, horseback ride or just walk around. A ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for 10 a.m. Saturday at the park entrance, at Chestnut and DeForest avenues. Mayor Robert Garcia, councilmen Rex Richardson and Al Austin, and other city officials will be there. More information: 562-570-3150.
