Public records show that Mr. Tarkowski has been illegally receiving waste material at his property since the late 1960s, and Lake County as well as the State of Illinois and U.S. EPA have pursued legal actions against Mr. Tarkowski since that time. Although the judgment of more than one court determined that Mr. Tarkowski should remove various waste materials and adhere to deed restrictions, zoning ordinances and state laws regulating permitting of landfills, the problem persisted. Extensive litigation by the local, state and federal authorities has taken place relative to this site.
