A 90 day prison sentence and 250 hour community service has been given to Gurbinder Sall, the boss of Kent skip haulage business Sall Skips for breaching environmental regulations.
The company based in Gravesend was prosecuted by the Dartford Magistrates Court for breaching the Environmental Permitting Regulations set by the Environment Agency (EA) back in 2010. There were 67 violations identified at the site, many of which Sall’s Skips were previously prosecuted for in 2009. These issues included the stockpiles of waste exceeding the permitted limit and the litter netting and bay walls at the site in need of repair and replacement. In June 2012, Sall was issued with a revocation notice to stop operations and prompt a waste removal of the site, but this had apparently been ignored and increased when another inspection took place in October 2012.
