IEPA plan identifies toxic sites By Kurt Begalka Plaindealer news service The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency's Land Division Program plan for 1984 identifies 73 hazardous substance sites in the state. One, Morton- Norwich Products, Inc. is located in McHenry County in Ringwood. Plant Manager Sid Martin said the company produced 89,000 gallons of hazardous waste last year. The solvents and adhesives which are generated in- house classified as hazardous primarily because of their flammability, Martin said. However, in com­ parison, gasoline is more likely to ignite, he noted. Martin acknowledged that although the drums sit outside the compound, they are secured by a fence and are generally shipped out well before the 90-day storage deadline required by state law. IEPA records show the waste is shipped to several disposal sites out of the county, including ones located in Joliet, Chicago and Winthrop Harbor. Brad Benning, regional field officer for the IEPA, said Morton-Norwich was inspected last in January 1981. Another inspection is planned for this summer, he said. House Bill 2215, entitled "Community Right to Know," will allow citizens greater access to in­ formation on toxic substances within their' com­ munity. The bill, sponsored by Rep. Woods Bowman (D-Evanston), would provide the IEPA and county health departments with a list of toxic substances posing a threat to health and environment. It calls for companies to disclose and report quantities of toxic substances used or stored at plant sites, disposed of in landfills or released into the en­ vironment. The bill "links up existing laws that are unrelated," Bowman said. It provides for: ...An annual toxic substance report. This is a list of chemicalnames and quantities ̂ Waste labels will be categorized into particular substances as part of this "new concept," Bowman said. "What we're going to do is to identify the specific chemical nature," he added. "We're going to track chemicals from their origin right through to their special disposal." ...A material safety data sheet. Included from the "Worker Right To Know" law passed last year, this provision informs workers of health dangers and how to treat injuries resulting from exposure. ...An estimation of quantities of toxic substance discharged or emitted into the environment from the facility. Bowman said invoices would be checked against the quantities disposed. "We're giving the EPA a new tool," Bowman said, adding the public's right to know is crucial. Environmental and public interest organizations supporting the bill include the Chicago Lung Association, Citizens for a Better Environment, Illinois League of Women Voters, Illinois En­ vironmental Council and the Illinois Public Action Council. John Kirkwood, executive director of the Chicago Lung Association, said in a public statement that much of the information to be disclosed is not presently available. "Only seven of the dozens of potentially toxic air pollutants are regulated under the federal Clean Air Act. Yet, it is estimated that 10 percent or more of lung cancers are related to air pollution. This bill will give us the tools to evaluate the health risks from toxic air emissions." Leslie Nickels, board member of the Illinois En­ vironmental Council, said the bill will allow emergency personnel like firefighters and health professionals to prepare more fully for possible mishaps. "We support it," said Greg Lindsey, executive direcctor of the McHenry County Defenders. "Current laws only regulate waste, and only waste over a certain amount." Lindsey said the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) list of 1983 identified 39 cor­ porations in McHenry County that, together, handle 296 waste streams.

FRONT ST. 385-2100 Conservation award to Fiske Kenneth Fiske, executive director of the McHenry County Conservation District, was the recipient of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) conservation award at the state convention held March 15. The award was made in recognition of Fiske's 1 leadership and work as executive director of MCCD since its beginning in 1971. Under Fiske's leadership, MCCD has acquired 13 conservation sites located throughout the county so that all residents can enjoy activities near their homes. McHenry county was the fifth county to create a conservation district and has the Care speeds tax returns Spending a few extra moments with your state income tax return may mean the difference between spending your refund and weeks waiting for a check in the mail, state tax officials say. Every time an error occurs, the department must contact the taxpayer to get correct data, usually through a com­ puter-generated letter. And until the need information is supplied and documented by the taxpayer, all processing on the return stops. The most common error on a state in­ come tax return, according to Gary Ey, regional director, is a mistake in math. Last year about 80,000 taxpayers miscalculated one or more lines of their returns. Department personnel had to recalculate returns for these individuals, often from top to bottom since a single math error can skew an entire return, he explained. Another 30,000 taxpayers forgot to sign their return last year, while nearly 26,000 didn't attach the required wage and ear­ nings states (W-2 form), and about 17,000 did not indicate their martial status. Thousands of other taxpayers failed to include required schedules and at­ tachments to support claims on the returns. "Each line on a tax return plays an important part in properly calculating one's tax liability," Ey said. "If needed information is not supplied, or a taxpayer fails to sign a return, the department has no c hoice but to delay procesing until the return is commplete. And if processing is delayed, refunds are also delayed." largest number of sites of any of the state's 102 counties. Fiske is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin school of agriculture.
