Corby Waste Site Raided by EA Officers
We understand Northamptonshire police assisted the Environment Agency in executing a warrant at a suspected illegal waste site in Corby, allegedly operated by Abbey Skips.
The raid resulted in 2 arrests and another individual was interviewed under caution as a volunteer. Stephen Lack was charged with operating a waste management facility without an environmental permit. He attended Northampton Magistrates’ Court, in custody, on 26th September. His case proceeded to Northampton Crown Court for trial and he was remanded in custody pending his first Crown Court appearance on 14 October 2020.
In their press release dated 18th September the EA remind everyone they have a legal duty to make sure they are handing their waste to registered carriers and their waste ends up at authorised permitted sites for treatment or disposal.

In November 2019, we launched this innovative offering for clients seeking access to advice for an agreed annual fee.
This is an alternative to our standard retainer system and offers clients an opportunity to obtain advice where the cost is pre-determined for the whole year. This arrangement would suit clients who may from time to time need to seek legal advice but may hold off preferring a ‘wait and see’ approach.
In our experience, early intervention can reduce the risk of the situation escalating as we can give advice and guidance that nips regulatory issues in the bud before they develop into something far worse. We also strongly recommend our clients consider taking out legal expenses insurance to cover investigations and prosecutions brought by regulators.
DyneProtect© has teamed up with Butcher & Barlow solicitors to provide DyneProtect© clients access to a specialist team of corporate and commercial lawyers for up to 1 hours’ worth of free telephone advice/legal consultation.
Butcher & Barlow have a dedicated commercial and agricultural hub on Gadbrook Park in Northwich which provides advice and assistance to a host of business clients in specialist areas such as Corporate and Commercial Law, Commercial Property, Private Client and Agriculture.
If you have a corporate or commercial issue which Dyne Solicitors is unable to handle, then Butcher & Barlow’s Commercial team will certainly be able to step in and assist.
DyneProtect© has also negotiated price reductions on OLAT / Driver CPC courses run by training providers KP Legal Limited who are offering discounts to DyneProtect© clients on Operator Licensing Awareness / Compliance training (-20%) and Periodic Driver CPC training (-10%).
