KNIB produces information on the cleanliness of Northern Ireland that is used to direct resources to environmental quality issues.[9] It has conducted public information campaigns on litter, including on youth litter.[11] It has also campaigned on issues such as fly-tipping, dog fouling and neighbourhood noise.[9]
Much of the organisation's work overlaps with the Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment (NI) Act 2011, The Litter (NI) Order 1994 and The Waste and Contaminated Land (NI) Order 1997.[12]
