The director of a Wakefield waste firm was today  handed a 12 month community order with 150 hours unpaid work for not having a permit in place to prevent damage to the environment.

Chantelle Noble, of Windsor Oval, Tingley, was sentenced at Leeds Magistrates’ Court yesterday (Thursday) after pleading guilty to operating without any environmental permits or authorisations. She was also ordered to pay £2,500 costs.

Environment Agency officers visited the Wakefield Waste Management Ltd at Quarry Hill Industrial Estate, Horbury Bridge, Wakefield, on April 4 and found numerous skips full of mixed waste, as well as waste processing in one of the units on the site.
