Title

  • Former Ocoya Landfill Site Livingston, County, Illinois

Description

  • The landfill is bordered by Rooks Creek to the east, which is within the Vermilion River Illinois Drainage Natural Area. Wetlands are also present just northwest of the landfill. Illinois EPA recently completed a site investigation to determine what work, if any, is needed at the landfill. Illinois EPAs initial evaluation of this site revealed problems such as erosion, exposed waste, low areas at the surface that allowed water to pond, and leachate seeps (water that becomes contaminated after contact with landfill waste). The printable map referenced in the fact sheet will be included as a separate pdf attachment.
