When I first started in the demolition/salvage business a highway bypass was being built around the city of Nanaimo BC. Hundreds of buildings were demolished or removed. A group of three suits from the highways department stopped by to inform me that I was not allowed to recycle and sell products from this project since that would give me an unfair advantage over competitors who munch the houses and pay $100 per ton to dump them.

Sometimes I do a smokescreen routine. I give them something very obvious to bitch about and while they're busy dealing with that I do the thing that I'm really concerned with behind their backs. This is is a tactic I've used for various inspectors. Leave an obvious hazard or minor violation in plain view and they almost always go for the bait and don't investigate further.
