Our community values both environmental preservation and security, and this incident threatens both.\u201d He added, \u201cWe call for immediate action from the Community First Credit Union and relevant authorities to rectify this situation and ensure that it is not repeated.

The Project Manager, Britney McDonald, stated, \u201cBusinesses paying service providers to dump waste must take all necessary steps in their due diligence of waste disposal. Requesting proof of delivery before final payment is one way to ensure the waste makes it to the landfill instead of into our communities.\u201d She continued, \u201cIllegal dumping is not an isolated issue for Fitches Creek, but our community is taking a strong stand. Waste disposal is a health hazard and threatens our already sensitive ecosystems as a Small Island Developing State impacted by climate change.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the FCRA has also requested bulk waste clean-up days to support its ongoing project which, among other things, aims to keep the Fitches Creek Community free of waste from illegal dumping. In order to effectively address this challenge, swift action is required by the local authorities when such incidents occur. The FCRA is committed to working with the NSWMA and all other stakeholders to uphold the law and preserve the environment.<\/p><div id=\"antig-2446586873\" class=\"antig-content_3 antig-entity-placement\"><a href=\"https:\/\/chtamarketplace.com\/\" aria-label=\"Social FaceBook Cover Desk_Mobile\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1920\/h:711\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Social-FaceBook-Cover-Desk_Mobile-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1920\/h:711\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Social-FaceBook-Cover-Desk_Mobile-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:300\/h:111\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Social-FaceBook-Cover-Desk_Mobile-scaled.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1024\/h:379\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Social-FaceBook-Cover-Desk_Mobile-scaled.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:768\/h:285\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Social-FaceBook-Cover-Desk_Mobile-scaled.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1536\/h:569\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Social-FaceBook-Cover-Desk_Mobile-scaled.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1920\/h:711\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Social-FaceBook-Cover-Desk_Mobile-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" width=\"2560\" height=\"949\"   \/><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Fitches Creek is part of the North East Marine Management Area (NEMMA), which is an environmentally protected area.
