State to Seek Fines Against De Soto Dump
Springfield attorney general Tyrone Fahner said his office will seek Pollution Control Board action against Everett Allen and Scopa of Carterville for the De Soto landfill. The suit would demand proper cover for buried refuse, testing of nearby wells, dust control, and compliance with hazardous liquid waste permit restrictions, with fines and a mandate to upgrade or close the site within five years as part of an open dump inventory.
