Maybe you think the cost to Durham taxpayers (more than $1 million in clean-up last year) is not your problem. Maybe you aren't concerned about the resulting damage to the environment, possible danger to residents or the unsightly appearance But you know, if you illegally dump materials that should be taken to a recycling facility or a landfill site, you could be fined up to $5,000 each time you're caught. That makes illegal dumping your problem, too.
