The debris and unusable wastes must be disposed at an Illinois EPA permitted landfill or transfer
station
. Scrap metal not disposed at a landfill can be taken to a scrap metal facility or recycling
center . The used tires must be drained and stored inside or covered to prevent the accumulation
of water . The used or waste tires must be removed to an Illinois EPA registered used tire storage
or used tire disposal facility . Used or waste tires cannot be taken to a landfill or transfer station
for the purpose of disposal
. Loads of more than 20 tires must be hauled by an Illinois EPA
registered used tire transporter .
If local ordinance allow a salvage business at the residence, the scrap metal must be kept
organized, and moved off-site on a regular basis . No burning of waste, including the burning of
insulation off of metal wire, or open dumping of automotive fluids are allowed
.
Mr
. Suttles was previously making progress and had cleaned up approximately fifteen to twenty
percent of this site
; most of his work was concentrated on the front yard and the area between the
homes
. Since the last inspection in May of 2005 no appreciable change has occurred
. Some of
the areas have actually worsened
. There are still approximately 100 cubic yard of off-site
generated waste on the property
. The Suttles have not responded to any of the Illinois EPA
correspondence
. There is also evidence that open burning continues at the site
.
On January 2, 2007, the Illinois EPA inspector called Ron Brockhouse, Waverly Chief of Police
(309/435-2351),
he was aware of several citizen complaints in regards to Mr . Suttles properties
on Elm and Tremont Streets . Mr . Brockhouse referred the inspector to Ernie Cleveland, the
Mayor of Waverly .
page 3
On January 2, 2007, the Illinois EPA inspector contacted Ernie Cleveland, Mayor of Waverly
(309/435-9011 & 217/320-5648) . Mr . Cleveland said the city had received numerous complaints
regarding Mr . Suttles' yards . The Mayor said the complaints were being handled by the Zoning
office and to speak with Mrs . Janice Lowder . Mr
. Cleveland mentioned that the complaints have
occurred over the last several years and the City has been working on getting the complaints
resolved
. Mr . Cleveland noted that the Suttles own land around Waverly that is being actively
farmed, however the Suttles are not farming the land themselves
. It appears that only the Suttles
warehouse on Elm Street, and the former and current residence on Tremont Street are the bases
of the complaints .
On January 2, 2007, the Illinois EPA inspector spoke with Mrs
. Lowder, Waverly Zoning Office
(309/435-9618)
. She stated the zoning office is pursuing zoning and nuisance violations against
the Suttles
. The last inspection conducted by the City was held on September 11, 2006 . No
citations have issued and no court dates have been set yet. If a citation is issued the fine starts at
$250 and would be served by the chief of police .
The apparent violations noted as a result of this inspection are checked on the attached checklist
.
