A total of 11 bags of household waste was found by The Woodland Trust on Tuesday last week in Coal Pit Road.
The council said that environmental enforcement officers traced the resident and issued a £600 fixed penalty notice
The site has now been cleared.
This comes after the council was under fire last week for its alleged “inaction” over fly-tipping in Burnden.
Businesses and locals near Westbrook Street, Grosvenor Street, and Gorton Street say they have been battling an environmental and public safety crisis for months, with hazardous waste, crime, and fly-tipping spiralling out of control.
A spokesperson for the council said: “Fly-tipping will not be tolerated in Bolton and as part of the budget announced earlier this year, the environmental enforcement team is being expanded to address this problem.”
