Illegal Dumping Prevention Grant Round 2, Stream 1

These grants support the delivery of the NSW Illegal Dumping Prevention Strategy 2022-27 and contribute to two of the key focus areas of the strategy:

1. Reducing kerbside illegal dumping activities ​
2. Reducing public land and bushland illegal dumping activities

The four grants streams aim to support local government and state government agencies to:

• gather baseline and ongoing data on the size of their illegal dumping problem
• develop a business case for investment in illegal dumping prevention
• proactively target localised illegal dumping issues
• collaboratively address illegal dumping across land tenures
• encourage entities to undertake illegal dumping prevention projects if they have not done so before

This stream provides funding for establishing baseline data either for dumping on publicly owned land or for developing an illegal dumping business case for the following entities:

• Individual local councils
• Groups of councils (only stream 1b)
• State government public land managers
