A Fulchester man is accused of dumping thousands of gallons of toxic waste from Fulchester Metals Ltd into a quarry, but claims he had no idea that the waste was toxic. Was he conned into dumping the chemicals by the boss of the metals company, who is also on trial?

Mr. Justice Craig calls Severn Quarry gate man Bill Narraway to answer questions about the poisonous liquid waste. Narraway admits to turning a blind eye to Albert Coussins disposing it. Cousins claims disposing the liquid cost him money.

Martha Cousins claims that co-conspirator Michael Mayes told her that the 2,000 gallons waste in his tank was not toxic and gave her list of contents. The list is lost but Mayers counters that Cousins took the tanker before it was treated.
