🗑️ Someone dumped waste or is polluting — who do I report it to?

Direct answer

Fly-tipping, a leaking container, oil in a stream: report to Savivaldybė — viešosios tvarkos skyrius (lsa.lt) — the municipality clears public land and fines when there is evidence (a photo of the plate, a document in the waste). Larger pollution, industrial sites, chemicals, dead fish: Nacionalinis visuomenės sveikatos centras (NVSC) (nvsc.lrv.lt), the environmental inspectorate, which has a 24-hour line in most countries. Dumping in progress with a vehicle: Policija — pranešimas (112) — do not confront.
