| | 1: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2001 May | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Operation of the Rhodes Landfill began in the 1940s at the site of a former gravel quarry along Route 48 at Bowshier Lane. This 16-acre landfill held primarily construction/demolition debris, although foundry wastes, general refuse and other materials were also accepted. The southern edge of the site borders the Sangamon River. The landfill was closed by a court order in 1992. A closure plan submitted by the owner, Mr. Charles Rhodes, was approved by the Illinois EPA in 1994 but never implemented. The State of Illinois plans to construct a cap on the site. Illinois EPA has sent legal notice to the owner explaining our intentions, and the Agency retains the right to pursue cost recovery after the work is complete. | | | | Date Created: | 05 24 2012 | | | | Agency ID: | Fact Sheet #1 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000042450 Original UID: 21974 FIRST WORD: Rhodes | |
| 2: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2001 December | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Environmental problems at the landfill include steep slopes with erosion problems and inadequate cover. Leachate seeps have been observed on the south and west slopes of the property. (Leachate is a liquid that results from water traveling through decomposing waste in a landfill and usually contains a variety of contaminants.) Some portions of the riverbank at the southern slope of the landfill are undergoing erosion. Recent sampling found low concentrations of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in one of three sediment sample taken from the east side of Lake Tokorozawa. PAHs occur naturally in coal, crude oil and gasoline and products made from these. They are released during the burning of fossil fuels, garbage or other organic substances. An ecological risk assessment indicates that the landfill might pose a threat to local ecological resourses. | | | | Date Created: | 05 24 2012 | | | | Agency ID: | Fact Sheet #2 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000042451 Original UID: 21975 FIRST WORD: Rhodes | |
