If you witness illegal dumping, dial 9-1-1 immediately and report all relevant details (date/time, location, description of vehicle, license, and driver, etc.) so that law enforcement can effectively respond. If the illegal dumping has already occurred, please call the Police Department's dumping hotline at 510-965-4905 where you can anonymously report dumping and graffiti. This number is monitored continuously, and someone will relay the information within 24 hours.
You may also contact the Contra Costa Clean Water Program during normal business hours at 1-800-NO-DUMPING, and someone will relay the information within one business day.
