Waste illegally imported from abroad has once again been discovered in Poland. According to the authorities, it is said to be large amounts of shredded plastic waste. Waste imported contrary to legal requirements was discovered at the beginning of last week in the district of Nysa, not far from the border with the Czech Republic, according to the Environmental Protection Inspectorate of the Opole District. Further inspections were carried out in the region and the public prosecutor's office was informed of possible criminal offenses. However, the authority initially did not provide any information on the specific quantity or origin.
