The Department of Small Business Services (SBS) does not have enforcement capabilities to address illegal dumping at a mall, as it is not an enforcement agency. SBS would need to contact the Department of Sanitation New York (DSNY), which is the agency responsible for enforcing laws related to dumping that affects quality of life.

- However, SBS itself cannot take direct enforcement action against the illegal dumping
- The responsibility lies with DSNY as the enforcement agency for such quality of life issues related to improper waste disposal
