Rhodes Landfill

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

Environmental problems at the landfill include steep slopes with erosion problems and inadequate cover. Leachate seeps have been observed on the south and west slopes of the property. (Leachate is a liquid that results from water traveling through decomposing waste in a landfill and usually contains a variety of contaminants.) Some portions of the riverbank at the southern slope of the landfill are undergoing erosion. Recent sampling found low concentrations of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in one of three sediment sample taken from the east side of Lake Tokorozawa. PAHs occur naturally in coal, crude oil and gasoline and products made from these. They are released during the burning of fossil fuels, garbage or other organic substances. An ecological risk assessment indicates that the landfill might pose a threat to local ecological resourses.

Water Monitoring Strategy

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

In July 2002, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA) Bureau of Water (BOW) conducted a review of Agency water monitoring programs and developed a water monitoring strategy for the 2002-2006 monitoring cycle. The 2002-2006 Monitoring Strategy document was developed to assess the effectiveness of current water monitoring programs and fulfill an Agency commitment made in the 2001 Environmental Performance Partnership Agreement (EnPPA) between the Region 5 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) and the Illinois EPA, to develop a Surface Water Monitoring Strategy for the next five-year monitoring cycle. This BOW Water Monitoring Strategy addresses all Illinois EPA water monitoring programs funded by Federal Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 106 funds for the period of 2002 through 2006 and describes major surface and groundwater programs within the framework of U.S. EPA guidance developed for state monitoring and assessment programs.

Western Lion and Service Disposal #1 Landfill SitesLoxa Road and Route 316, Charleston, Illinois

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

After a history of environmental violations at the Western Lion and Service Disposal #1 Landfill sites, a temporary order from the Illinois Attorney Generals Office required all of the waste disposal operations to stop in January 1996. During an inspection by Illinois EPA in June 1997, field personnel discovered that an open trench had filled with 35-40 feet of leachate (rainwater that has traveled through the landfill and contacted waste). The leachate overflowed at times into nearby Riley Creek, a Class A Stream considered a "unique aquatic resource" in the state.
