ILLINOIS ENVIRONMENTALPROTECTION AGENCY,DISSENTING OPINION (by J.D, Dumelle):My reason for dissenting lies in the possible health dangerto persons using the Illinois River downstream of the CalumetSewage Treatment Plant.
The Calumet STP discharges ahout
one—seventh of the total Chicago—area sewage plant flow.
No protection in this variance is given to those
using the Illinois River if bacterial levels in fact rise above500 and approach 4,100.
