Permits & Code Enforcement Special Investigations Unit of Baltimore’s housing department has been tackling the city’s huge illegal dumping issue with the FlashCAM since 2009, making front page news of the Baltimore Sun on March 26, 2012.
Their FlashCAM program has led to 48 criminal convictions, resulting in fines, community service and even jail time. If someone is convicted of dumping more than 500 pounds, the maximum penalty is $30,000 and FIVE years in jail!
