  Cesspit/catchpit waste and road sweepings
If your day-to-day activities involve the pumping of cesspits (also known as catchpits) and the collection of roadsweepings; or you engage the services of a company to dispose of this material; or you accept this material to your landfill; then you must consider the potential that your activity has to pollute the environment.
Do not de-water cesspit or roadsweeping waste, during or after collection, to the stormwater system or to natural water, this water is contaminated and must be disposed of as a trade waste.
The disposal of cesspit waste or roadsweepings to cleanfill or hardfill in the Region is prohibited as these materials are not cleanfill and will contaminate these filling operations with heavy metals and hydrocarbons.
