Dust waste.

There

process PDC claims is safe. Their own testing occurred only in

December 2007 and February 2008, yet this waste could be in

our local landfills, including ones over the Mahomet Aquifer, forever.

I am concerned aboutdioxins, furans, mercury, and other heavy

metals eventually from this waste. If delisting is granted, PDC will

be able to send their treated EAF to any municipal waste landfill

in Illinois. I believe this violates factors of the IL Environmental

Protection Act, which require considerations of existing physical

conditions, receiving body of water and other issues. I am strongly

opposed to this delisting request and urge that it be denied.
