hallenges....continued
from Al
make
that kind
of long
trip
over
highways, and
making
the
trip
to
other landfills
is
proving
very
costly
to
Sutter.
The
proposed
transfer station
would be
a site
where
his garbage
trucks
would
be
unloaded,
and
the
refuse
then reloaded
into
semitrailers to
be hauled
away.
PCB hearing officer Bradley Halloran con-
ducted
the
appeal
hearing Thursday
in
the
Effingham County
Board
room. Appeals
from both Landfill
33
and Stock
were consol-
idated into one hearing.
Public
comment will
be
considered by
the
PCB
if postmarked
by Jan.
3.
Attorneys
for
both
sides
must file
post-hearing briefs
by
Jan.
10. Replies
to
those briefs
must be
filed
by
Jan.
17.
Halloran
said
the
PCB
will
make
its
decision
when
it
meets Feb. 20
in Chicago.
Halloran
said transcripts
of
the
hearing will
be
available
Dec. 24
on
the PCB
Web site at www.ipcb.state.il.us.
Thursday’s
hearing
included testimony
from
a man who
lives
across the
road
from
the
proposed
transfer
station,
as
well
as
from
Tracy
Sutter
of
Sutter
Sanitation
and Duane
Stock of Stock
& Co.
Landfill 33 representatives did
not tes-
tify Thursday.
Lloyd Stock,
a relative of Duane Stock who leases a home
across
the
road
from
the
proposed
transfer
station,
said
the
stationwould have a negative impact on the immediate area.
“I’m concerned
about
the
impact that
the
transfer
station
will
have,”
Lloyd
Stock
said.
He
added
that
he
was
“con-
cerned and
disappointed” about the situation.
Lloyd Stock added that he already has seen
garbage trucks
pulling
into
the
transfer station
site.
Sutter
uses the
site
as
a
drop-off recycling center.
Duane
Stock,
who owns the home
that Lloyd
Stock lives
in,
said he had been hampered by
not being able to receive a
copy
of
the
transcript
from
the
siting
hearing until
late
November.
“That put us at a disadvantage,” Stock
said.
The
mobile home
at
which
Stock
resides
is
within
1,000
feet of the proposed site
—
which
is a violation of
IPCB sit-
ing criteria. However,
the
home did not exist
at the time the
county board approved Sutter’s
permit. Lloyd
Stock had the
home placed on
the
property shortly after the board awarded
the permit to Sutter.
