unfortunately there's no contest, it's a list of possible sources of solid waste pollution. Is that an open-air dump?
Considering it is put together with laji and industrial waste...

Thank you in advance for any help!

Selected

open-air/outdoor storage, or, stored/stacked/piled up in the open

open-air/outdoor storage, or, stored/stacked/piled up in the open

I prefer 'open-air/outdoor storage' to the literate translation 'stored/stacked/piled up in the open'.

If it's a file of solid waste pollution, 'dump' would be more appropriate than 'storage'.

*********In this case, I agree with outdoor dump/pile.*********
