ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):
This matter is before the Board on a complaint filed by Teresa L. Shepro and Frank
Wiemerslage (complainants) against Newby Oil Company, David E. Tripp, and Janice L. Tripp
(respondents). The complainants allege that the respondents placed 55-gallon drums,
aboveground storage tanks, and semi-trailers on property owned by the complainants on Oakland
Drive, DeKalb in Sycamore County that resulted in environmental contamination and a concern
for safety of the complainants’ soil and groundwater.
On June 29, 2005, the complainants filed a motion to voluntarily dismiss the complaint
with prejudice. The motion is granted. The Board hereby dismisses the complaint, and closes
the docket.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, certify that the Board
adopted the above order on July 7, 2005, by a vote of 4-0.
Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
Illinois Pollution Control Board
