One of the dumped boxes has a name and address clearly visible.
Blenheim is close to town and is used by walkers, horse riders and bike riders and is a valuable recreational resource for the town residents.
There appears to be an element in town that feels it is quite acceptable to pollute our forests rather than utilise the service provided by our council at the Oberon garbage tip at a minimal cost.
Forestry Corporation of NSW works with Environment Protection Authority to prevent illegal dumping and fines of up to $7500 for individuals and $15,000 for organisations can apply. Report such anti-social behaviour to prevent our recreational areas from becoming an unsightly mess.
