You'd also hope that the EA would consider it their duty to take action if they find out he doesn't have them or isn't conforming to the conditions... but will they?

unlikely under the conservatives vision of the country:
The Environment Agency (EA) has too little money to carry out its enforcement work effectively, a letter obtained by The Times has said.
According to the newspaper, EA chair Emma Howard Boyd last August wrote to Environment Secretary George Eustice to warn that funding cuts meant England’s environmental performance was deteriorating.
In the letter, obtained under Freedom of Information legislation, The Times reported Ms Howard Boyd saying cuts of more than half to the EA’s enforcement budget had come on top of new statutory duties.
“All this is allowing more people and businesses to break the environmental rules”, she said, adding “serious waste criminals are taking advantage: the Environment Agency is now finding illegal waste sites as fast it can close down existing ones”.
Yeah, as it's private land it'll be up to the owners to pay for disposal of fly-tipped waste - makes it a nice cheap job for him divided by 11! maybe that was his plan all along.
How is Janet bearing up?
When I had a similar issue with rubble/building materials being stored on the road/footpath for months and an open pit with no fence round. I just emailed my local councillors and asked who or what I should talk to/do as I didn't know which property the mess belonged to. They passed it on to someone, or other who went around and chased the bugger and it all got sorted out sharpish.
There's still a massive hole in the ground but at least there's some fence round it, and the rubble and gravel has all been tidied away.
^ You had a load of rubble and a hole that needs filling, surely there was a better solution?
