In 2018, the EA seized £131,520 in cash from Datta’s home address.
After pleading not guilty in 2023, he changed his plea to guilty in June last year.
Mohammed Saraji Bashir, from Peterborough, was also given a four-month suspended prison sentence, unpaid work and period of rehabilitation, while Robert McAllister, from north London, was fined £750.
Warrants for the arrest of two other men are still active, the EA said.
Two more waste criminals, David Weeks and Lee Brookes, were also given suspended prison sentences last year for the waste stored illegally at a rat-infested industrial unit in Margate.
Emma Viner, enforcement and investigations manager at the EA, labelled it an “appalling case”.
“Despite attempting to conceal their criminality, our in-depth investigation spanning the length and breadth of the country ultimately uncovered them,” she said.
“We will never stop fighting to end the scourge of waste crime that scars our environment and communities.”
Environment Secretary Emma Reynolds said the waste dumping was “orchestrated by a group of shameless crooks”.
“This government is committed to stamping out this type of criminality across the country by boosting funds to tackle waste crime and introducing tougher checks and penalties for those who break the law,” she added.
