Vandalism or Civil Matter
ncrunch32,
First off what is going here is that your neighbor is CLEARLY conveying a threat to you. You DO NOT require the the sheriff to properly address this situation. Go to the courthouse and swear out a warrant on him with the magistate.
Secondly, he is deliberately dumping on your property. Dumping is a crime punishable by a minimum $500 fine in most states. Swear out a warrant on him for that.
Dumping of dirt in areas prone to errosion or potential washing require silt fences be installed by the Dept. of Environmental Quality or appropriate agency in most areas. Call the Dept. of Environmental Quality and report him.
Lastly, since this individual seems hell bent for leather to intimidate and aggrivate you. Contact the local magistrate and file a restraining order against him.
Look up as many local laws and ordinances as you can and report him for each and every violation. Get video tape of as much of him doing this as you can.
BEFORE you do ANY of this......... WITH 2 witnesses; go to the man's door and make an attempt to resolve this matter with him in person. If you get no results; then it is time to declare war. War is the LAST thing you want as things will get MUCH worse before they get better. Best to work something out with your neighbor on mutually agreeable terms if at all possible.

Vandalism or Civil Matter
The picture of the fence makes it much clearer. I would take the fence down temporarily to remove the dirt and use it somewhere else on my land to do some landscaping. You have a FEL and a hoe......... piss him off and take all of the dirt away! And then when he puts it back again; take it away again. Make sure to properly document your time and machinery costs so you can send him an accurate bill just for the record when payback times comes. You could also decide to wash your fence with the pressure washer the next time he tries to dump more dirt. Another really good trick to pull to make your point is to go out and buy and old used freezer really cheap and put a bunch of spoiled meat and food in it and leave the top shut for about a month or so with it UNPLUGGED. When the guy has you really PO'd. move the freezer over as close to his house on your property when the wind is blowing the right way on a 90 degree day and decide to wash out your freezer that you accidently left unplugged. You will need a top quality respirator for this. I am cleaning a freezer just like this out now. Talk about sinus torture! I would suggest a hog pen but it looks like you are in a residential area. ;o)

ncrunch32.......be VERY thankful you don't have neighbors like mine.......if you call them neighbors. I am on a bit larger piece of land and spent about 4 days posting the piece I live on now, and closing up cut fences. Some of the "nice folks" (and I use that term VERY lightly) necessitate that I wear body armor and carry an M-3 Super 90 and a CZ-75 30 rounds each. Don't get me wrong as I have some VERY nice and hospitable neighbors but their are some "neighbors" who like to poach and grow pretty green plants to smoke, not to mention ride their ATV's as well as dump trash on my property.
