Pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 104.420, I respectfully request an
additional
hearing with
venue change in the matter of "RCRA Delisting Adjusted Standard Petition of Peoria
Disposal Company", Case No. AS 08-10.
Under the proposed Adjustment Standard, K061 Electric Arc Furnace Dust (EAFD)
generated by steel mills, will be excluded from the list of hazardous wastes. If EAFD is
delisted, Peoria Disposal Company intends to possibly transport the EAFD to Indian Creek
Landfill No. 2, located in Tazewell County
OR
to two other Subtitle D landfills in Illinois
affiliated with Peoria Disposal. One of these Subtitle D landfills is located near Clinton,
Illinois, in DeWitt County.
I represent DeWitt County and have received calls from constituents expressing concerns
of the long term public health and safety of this specific proposal before the Pollution
Control Board. Therefore, I request a public hearing be held in Clinton, Illinois. This
second hearing will allow residents of DeWitt and surrounding counties an opportunity to
participatedri a public hearing regarding this important issue. I also respectfully request
that the Board make every effort to schedule a public hearing for evening hours in order to
makepublic attendance possible.
