CONCURRING OPINION

(by D.

Anderson and J. Anderson):

The Board has accepted stipulated penalties of $2,500

against Jack Chase as an individual.

This same person was

apparently a respondent in IEPA v. Jack Chase, et al.,

PCB 79—19,

35 PCB 49, July 12,

1979,

a case which also involved open dumping

of drums filled with hazardous waste.

We have concurred in that

we agree that the Respondents have violated the Rules and that a

penalty should be imposed.

However,

the penalty against Mr.

Chase is grossly inadequate for a second instance of such a

serious violation.
