Today the attorney for the Stop the Mega-Dump group filed an appeal with the Illinois Pollution Control Board.

Here is the link to read the appeal: http://www.ipcb.state.il.us/documents/dsweb/Get/Document-68969

Now is an opportunity for everyone to write with your concerns about this landfill expansion to the Illinois Pollution Control Board. Even if you are on record from the March public hearing, it is important to write again. We can beat this expansion on appeal. However, we will need everyone standing up and letting the Pollution Control board know how you feel. If you have concerns about Hydrogen Sulfide and the Cortland Elementary school let them know. If you have concerns about how the DeKalb County Board made it difficult for you to participate in the March public hearing let them know. If you had a problem talking with your county board representative, speak up, write to the Pollution Control Board. If they receive a hundred letters from DeKalb citizens worried about the hydrogen sulfide, and all the others issues they will sit up and take notice. Be part of defeating this expansion.

Send your letter to: Illinois Pollution Control Board
James R. Thompson Center
100 West Randolph Suite 11-500
Chicago IL 60601

Put the case number at the top of your letter: PCB 2010-103

Send a copy to me and we will post it on our website if you like.
