    Complaint
    C-07- 101-C
    FOS File
    A complaint
    re-investigation
    was conducted
    at this lot
    on
    the south edge of Havana
    on
    October 28,
    2008.
    No one
    else was
    present.
    The weather
    was 65°F, and sunny
    during this
    inspection.
    The complaint
    stated
    “accumulation
    ofjunk & vehicles
    at Jackson’s property.”
    An
    investigation
    was conducted
    at this site
    on April 22,
    2008. See the memorandum
    of that
    date for
    details. The
    purpose
    of this
    follow-up investigation
    was to determine
    if the refuse
    observed
    during
    the
    April
    22, 2008 investigation
    had
    been cleaned
    up.
    There had been five
    abandoned
    cars
    on
    this
    site during the April
    22, 2008 inspection.
    Two
    of the cars
    had
    been
    removed prior
    to the October 28, 2008
    investigation. The
    three
    remaining
    abandoned
    cars are shown in
    photographs 1250205071’-10282008-001,
    1250205071—10282008-002,
    and 1250205071--’10282008-012.The
    area where
    the other
    two cars used
    to be us shown in photograph
    125020507110282008-005.
    There was
    one
    abandoned pickup
    truck
    on the
    site. This pickup truck
    is
    shown in
    photographs
    1250205071’—10282008-008,
    125020507110282008-009,
    and 125020507P—10282008-
    010.
    There were two
    abandoned mobile
    homes
    on
    this
    property during
    the April
    22, 2008
    investigation.
    The
    two
    mobile
    homes
    had been
    removed
    prior
    to the October
    28, 2008
    investigation. The
    previous locations
    of these
    two mobile homes
    are shown in
    photographs
    125020507110282008-008
    and
    1250205071--10282008-012.
    There
    was scrap
    metal
    and wooden demolition
    waste,
    along
    with three possibly
    empty
    55-gallon drums located
    along the
    west side of the north
    building at this site. This
    waste
    is shown in photographs
    125020507110282008-003
    and 1250205071-10282008-004.
    The drums located
    along the west
    side of
    the
    north
    building had wood
    boards
    stacked on
    them along with
    other items
    leaning against
    them.
    The usual method
    for determining

    whether drums contain
    liquids
    or solids is to rap
    on
    the
    sides of
    the
    drums.
    Empty
    drums
    ring
    with
    a
    distinctive
    sound.
    However, significant
    weight on
    top
    of an empty drum
    will
    deaden the sound.
    For this
    reason I
    was unable to determine
    if the drums
    were empty or
    contained
    wastes. Apparent violations
    of 35 Ill. Adm.
    Code
    722.111
    (hazardous waste
    determination)
    and 808.121
    (special waste determination)
    are marked
    to address the
    necessity that any wastes
    in the
    drums
    be
    identified
    and the disposed
    of properly.
    An
    orange trailer
    with old
    windows
    that
    was observed at
    the site
    during
    the April 22,
    2008
    investigation
    was located in the same
    location
    during this investigation.
    This
    trailer
    is shown in photograph
    1250205071—10282008-005.
    There
    was
    wooden demolition
    waste, scrap metal
    and assorted
    junk located
    along the
    west
    side of the site.
    This waste is shown in
    photographs
    125020507140282008-006,
    12502050711 0282008-007,
    and 1250205071-40282008-008.
    The
    semi trailer observed
    at this site during
    the
    April
    22, 2008 investigation
    was
    still
    present during
    this investigation. This
    semi trailer
    is shown in photograph
    1250205071-40282008-008.
    As observed during
    the April 22, 2008
    investigation,
    there were the
    metal
    frames from
    the bases
    of mobile homes
    behind
    the
    semi trailer. The mobile
    home
    bases are
    shown
    in
    photograph 1250205071-40282008-009.
    There was
    scattered junk in the
    wooded
    area
    at the south end of
    the site. This
    waste
    included
    two
    used tires not
    on rims. The waste
    in the
    southern
    end
    of the
    site is
    shown
    in
    photographs
    1250205071-40282008-010,
    1250205071—10282008-011,

    and
    1250205071-40282008-
    018.
    At the south end
    of the south building
    was a small amount
    of scrap
    metal,
    demolition
    waste and assorted
    junk. This waste
    is shown
    in
    photograph
    1250205071-40282008-019.
    There was wooden
    demolition
    waste stacked along
    the western
    wall
    of
    the
    south building.
    This
    demolition
    waste is shown
    in photograph
    1250205071-40282008-020.
    Most
    of
    the waste in the area
    south
    of the north
    building
    and west of the
    south building
    had
    been removed
    prior
    to
    this investigation The
    area
    is
    shown
    in photograph
    1250205071-40282008-021.
    There
    were
    some
    used tires
    on rims leaning against
    the
    south
    wall. In
    addition, there
    was some scrap metal
    south
    of
    the southwest
    corner
    of the
    north building.
    This scrap metal
    is shown in photograph
    1250205071-40282008-022.

    It
    is
    usually
    possible
    to
    determine
    if
    drums
    are
    empty
    by
    rapping
    on

    The
    weight
    of
    wood
    on
    top
    of
    the

    prevented
    the
    successful

    that
