If you put things into a wastewater network in a careless way, you can get in trouble. This is because you might cause a big problem that puts people or the environment at risk. You do this when you negligently dispose of materials or substances into the network.

When you do something like this, you commit an offence and can be fined. The fine is different depending on who you are - if you are an individual, the fine can be up to $50,000, but if you are a company or a group, the fine can be up to $1 million.

You can look at similar laws, like the one mentioned in the Local Government Act, to see how they compare to this one.
