| | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 1999 August | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | This 33-acre site, which is adjacent to the Canton downtown business district, was the location of industrial facilities which operated as foundries, manufacturers of farm implements and other processes. In recent years, it was the site of a large tire shredding and recycling operation. International Harvester owned and operated the site from 1919 until 1983. Canton Industrial Corporation (CIC), later known as Cyber America, operated at the site from 1984 until 1994 and ran the tire recycling operation. In 1991, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA) cited CIC for violations relating to improper storage of drummed wastes and failure to implement a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act closure plan at the site. During 1995 and 1996, the Illinois EPA was involved in a large cleanup of tires at the site. | | | | Date Created: | 05 03 2012 | | | | Agency ID: | Fact Sheet #2 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041825 Original UID: 21594 FIRST WORD: Canton | |
| | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2011 April | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | On February 18, 2011, Caterpillar Tractor Company, Inc. (CAT) was notified by the Woodford County Emergency Management Agency that residents along Ten Mile Creek had noticed a fuel odor. CAT personnel checked outfalls on the bluff below the Proving Grounds fuel station and discovered some diesel fuel seeping into a ravine which continues to Ten Mile Creek. An initial investigation around the fueling facility revealed a diesel leak in an underground line that feeds the fuel dispensers. Diesel fuel is used on the Proving Grounds property to power the earth-moving equipment being tested there. At the time the leak was found, CAT began excavating to remove the source and to find the extent of the leak. The fuel had followed a down-hill slope to a ravine on CAT property, ran down the ravine and impacted Ten-Mile Creek (about one-half mile away) with a visible sheen of diesel fuel on top of the water. The map referenced in the fact sheet will be included as a separate pdf attachment. | | | | Date Created: | 05 03 2012 | | | | Agency ID: | Fact sheet #1 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041826 Original UID: 21595 FIRST WORD: Caterpillar | |
| | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2001 June | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | CESI began operations in 1986. The 35-acre site was subdivided into six disposal areas and two borrow areas. The site was permitted for municipal waste and special non-hazardous waste. Areas I, II and III were filled with waste and have a partial soil cover ranging from 0 to 18 inches in depth. Due to site operating deficiencies, the permit to operate Area IV was denied. As a result, an extremely steep excavation face (about 30 to 50 feet high by 500 feet long) remains where the waste already in place was cut back to remove it. Operations at the site stopped in 1989. Although some soil cover was placed on the landfill, it is not certified closed by the Illinois EPA. | | | | Date Created: | 05 03 2012 | | | | Agency ID: | Fact Sheet #2 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041828 Original UID: 21597 FIRST WORD: Centralia | |

The Burlington Northern Railroad bisects the landfill areas. South and west of the landfills are several residences. The Centralia landfill sites are three of thirty-three (33) abandoned landfills that Illinois EPA identified in 1998 as critical environmental problems that need to be addressed.
