Fixed Penalty Notices for environmental offences

What is a Fixed Penalty Notice?

A Fixed Penalty Notice (FPN) is issued by our enforcement officers for environmental offences including littering, dog fouling, failing to keep a dog on a lead, fly-posting, fly-tipping, graffiti and smoking in smoke-free premises. View a full list of the offences an FPN can be issued for.
