| | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2004 February | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | In late 2003, Illinois EPA responded to an emergency at an old dump site in Gilberts. The remains of an old lead acid batter recycling operation had caught fire. Noxious smoke caused the evacuation of nearby residents. Although the immediate health threat seemed to have been abated, Illinois EPA decided to collect samples to determine if any contaminants were present. | | | | Date Created: | 05 14 2012 | | | | Agency ID: | Fact Sheet #1 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000042231 Original UID: 21745 FIRST WORD: Illinois | |
| | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2009 June 30 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | During the second week of June 2009, Illinois EPAs Office of Site Evaluation performed initial sampling of soil and shallow groundwater around Playfield Cleaners, a suspected potential source of groundwater contamination in the tainting of the Crestwood PWS Well #1, and between the Playfield property and the now sealed well. The purpose of the initial investigation was to examine and define the extent of contamination and its potential effects on the general public. Results of this sampling indicate that there is no current potential for human exposure to the contamination detected and consequently no health threat to the residents of Crestwood. However, additional investigation will be needed to attempt to determine the source and responsibility for the contamination of Crestwood PWS Well #1. | | | | Date Created: | 05 03 2012 | | | | Agency ID: | Update #2 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041850 Original UID: 21623 FIRST WORD: Illinois | |

| | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2010 June | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | The Illinois EPA believes that a manufacturer of animal feeds (Double S Liquid Feed Service, Inc.) discharged molasses and fatty acids into a ditch along the CSX railroad line. These materials are delivered to the Double S facility by rail. After being spilled they were washed by rainwater into the ditches where they began to and now continue to decompose. That decomposition process, though not directly harmful to human health, does produce a very foul odor. Violation notices issued by IEPA will be included as separate pdf attachments. | | | | Date Created: | 05 03 2012 | | | | Agency ID: | Fact Sheet #1 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041853 Original UID: 21626 FIRST WORD: Information | |
