The Municipality of West Nipissing is urging residents to report any suspicious activity at landfill sites after-hours. Incidents of trespassing, theft, and vandalism have significantly increased over the past two years. The Municipality is addressing these issues by exploring measures to enhance security and by working with local police. However, community involvement can have a significant impact in reducing such activity. 

Trespassing, theft and vandalism are adding unnecessary expenses to landfill operations. Due to the Municipality’s large geographic reach, the Environmental Services team maintains numerous landfill sites. Staff and gate attendants are constantly replacing damaged gates and repairing essential structures. 

Residents are asked to report any unauthorized access or suspicious behaviour to the local OPP detachment as soon as they see it. Thank you for your cooperation and support in keeping the community safe.

To reach the Ontario Provincial Police (Nipissing West Detachment), dial 9-1-1 or 1-888-310-1122.
