General Comments :
On March 7, 2007 at 04 :30 P .M .,
I conducted an inspection at the G & D Salvage facility, located at
104 West Lincoln
- P .O. Box 386, Loda, Illinois 60948, phone number 217/386-2852
.
This inspection was conducted in response to a complaint alleging open burning and open dumping
of refuse had occurred on March 6, 2007 and was again occurring on March 7, 2007
.
The purpose of this inspection was to determine regulatory status and evaluate compliance with the
Illinois Environmental Protection Act (Act) and Title 35 Illinois Administrative Code, Subtitle G
:
Land Pollution (Regulations)
. The inspection consisted of walking around the site, taking pictures,
and talking to Mr. Gene Breeden, Owner
. The weather was partly cloudy, the temperature 36
degrees.
Background :
This facility was first inspected by Kent Johnson, IEPA inspector, on November 16, 1994 resulting
in the site being cited for open burning of used tires and refuse
. An Administrative Warning Notice
dated January 11, 1995, was sent to Mr
. Gene Breeden Sr . Mr
. Breeden responded in a letter
received by the Agency on January 30, 1995 stating that "burning had stopped completely"
. The site
was re-inspected on December 7, 1995 and all violations were noted as "technically resolved" in an
IEPA letter dated May 24, 1996 .
The site was inspected again on April 2, 2003 and cited for used tire violations and open dumping of
apparent used oil resulting in a Violation Notice dated May 9, 2003 being sent to Mr
. Gene Breeden
.
He responded in a letter received by the agency on May 19, 2003 providing information that he
believed he had returned the site to compliance
. His Compliance Commitment Agreement was
accepted by the Agency in a letter dated May 30, 2003
.
The site was inspected by Curt White, IEPA Inspector, on April 25, 2006, in response to a complaint
that used tires were being open burned
. While no used tires were observed being open-burned, other
waste was observed being open-burned
. An Administrative Citation, dated May 19, 2005, was
served on Mr. Gene Breeden Sr
. for a penalty of $3000 .00 .

The IPCB ordered the fine to be paid by August 8, 2005
. The penalty was paid in July of 2005
.
Inspection :
When I arrived at the site I could see smoke rising from an area out near the center of the facility
. I
drove down the east fence line to a gate where I observed smoke coming up from a square metal
container (see photos #1 and #2)
. The gate was locked (see photo #2)
.
I went to the facility office where I spoke to Mr
. Gene Breeden Sr
. I explained that I was there
investigating a complaint that refuse was being open burned at his facility then went on to say that I
had indeed observed smoke rising from a metal container on the property
. I told him that I needed to
go back to the area and see what was there .
He asked if I wanted to drive back and I told him that I would just walk to the location
.
When I arrived in the vicinity of the metal container I saw that it was approximately 8'x 6'x 5' and
contained ashes from open burning, glass containers, heat scorched paint cans and other metal
containers, partially burned scraps of dimensional lumber, and flames from still burning refuse (see
photos #3, #4, and #6)
. It had been approximately one hour and smoke was still rising from the
container (see photo #5) .
As I walked back to the facility office I walked over to an area where open burning was alleged to
have occurred on the previous day
. I saw an area measuring approximately 10' x 10' that was
blackened and had refuse consisting of metal, small scraps of heat scorched dimensional lumber, and
plastic scattered about (see photo #7)
.
I went back into the office where I spoke to Mr
. Breeden telling him that I had observed the metal
container with open burning of refuse occurring within while I was there
. I explained to Mr
. Breeden
that open burning of refuse was prohibited by the Illinois Environmental Protection Act
. He said that
every house in Loda had a burn barrel and that the container was his burn barrel
. I explained that
residences had an exemption that allowed open burning of domicile waste only and that essentially a
business was not allowed to burn anything
. I told him that he would be receiving correspondence
from the Agency concerning the open burning on his site
. I left the site at 4 :50 Pat.
