The mission of the Environmental Response Unit is to address conditions
that have or may have an effect on the environment. This may be
a result of an accident or criminal acts such as illegal dumping.
ERU utilizes uniform officers from our headquarters and a network
of district assigned officers to enforce the code of regulations
for Philadelphia. In addition to these officers, plainclothes
officers working from our headquarters are charged with the responsibility
to investigate environmental crimes. These crimes range from neighborhood
illegal dumping complaints to the illegal disposal of hazardous
waste.
