Elyria EPA inspectors surprise city landfill review
EPA and Ohio EPA inspectors conducted an unannounced visit to Elyria’s Ford Road site, with no city officials notified in advance. Mayor Keys and officials appeared unfazed as the team surveyed conditions, while concerns about Garden Street dumps and illegal chemical barrels drew council scrutiny from whistleblower Leo Bullocks. Local politics and Carter campaign chatter hovered in the background amid reports of 400 to 1,000 barrels moved from nearby facilities.
