Dear Members

I am writing to strongly support the decision of the Peoria County Board to deny the expansion of

Peoria Disposal Co

.'s hazardous toxic waste landfill

. I am also doing so on behalf of my

children and grandchildren who will have to live with this problem well into the future

. I think

that is really what has gotten our local residents so upset

.

I would like to recount a personal experience I had last summer while in Wisconsin

. There was

an article in the Green Bay paper which dealt with cleaning up PCBs from the Fox River

. The

article took great delight in saying the hazardous material wouln't be a problem anymore as it

would betaken out of state to a toxic dump in Peoria Illinois

. Wisconsin does a great job of

pushing that it is a "green state" evidently at our expense

. They take our money as tourists and

send back their "crap"

. Please take pride in our State and say "enough is enough"

.

Very truly yours

Je

e A Kenney
