Environmental Enforcement Officers (EEOs) are officers that monitor all of Oakland’s diverse communities to prevent and deter illegal dumping. Through educational outreach and enforcement actions, EEOs educate Oaklanders on the consequences of illegal dumping and hold unlawful dumpers accountable. They monitor illegal dumping “hot spots,” conduct forensic investigations, cite dumpers, coordinate abandon waste removal, and collect data to inform and improve their enforcement efforts.
