EPA Launches Environmental Crimes Fugitive Website
Environmental fugitives, beware. The Environmental Protection Agency is watching you.
The EPA recently announced the availability of a new web tool that assists law enforcement agencies and the general public in finding fugitives who have violated environmental laws.
The site provides photos of the criminals, as well as descriptions of their violations and last known whereabouts. Information about captured fugitives is also available.
Current violations listed on the website include discharging pollutants into water and air, smuggling ozone-depleting substances, laundering money, and illegaly disposing hazardous waste.
If you happen to know any environmental criminals, don't hold back. The EPA's site has a "Report a Fugitive" form that goes straight to the organization's national criminal investigation office in Washington, DC. Information can also be reported to local police stations or US embassies.
