Mike G Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Terry Dodge welcomes meeting speaker , Charles E. Corley from the IEPA Rocckford office. Earth, Wind, Water-no Fire Mr Corley gave a great talk about the work of the IEPA which has been on the job for over 40 years. Its three divisions take care of land, air and water issues in the state. Major activities are issuing of permits, inspections, and investigation of incidents that affect environmental quality. Violations are turned over to to the Attourney General for prosecution. Like the DNR the IEPA is going through a rough period for funding. With limited ability to perform inspections, they depend on citizens reports to uncover problems. The number to call for emergency situations is 800 782-7860. The number for the Rockford office is 815 987-7760. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Dodge Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Thanks for posting, Mike. It was nice to hear that the Kilbuck thing from 2011 is kind of in an in-between stage of a hash letter sent to the company and the Attourney General. Glad I acted when I did. I could have acted soon. Live and learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
