Ms. Webb,

I am writing to ask the Illinois Pollution Control Board to uphold the Illinois EPA's

denial of PDC's request for a Class 3 permit modification (case PCB 2008-025).

In its request, PDC claims to be a waste generator and, as such, exempt from

local siting authority. This claim is false. Common sense makes it clear that PDC

does not generate waste. PDC trucks in waste from multiple states, treats it and

landfills it—garbage in and garbage out. Nothing of value is produced and there

are no customers. PDC's claim is merely an attempt to circumvent the local

siting process. The Peoria County Board has already voted to protect Peoria

County's water supply and deny PDC's identical expansion request. You have

already upheld the Peoria County Board's denial. Now please help preserve

local control and safeguard our aquifer by shutting down PDC's backup plan for

expansion.

Sincerely,

Name:
