% Warning On 5-Year Licenses SUCTION 2 PACiK I - I'l.AINDKAl 1.1? WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 13. 197$ Drivers should puy close intention to life instructions included with their new five- year registration plates. Thai's ihe advice from Illinois State Police Superintendent Lynn E. Baird. According to Baird, troopers are finding validation stickers everywhere but the proper place on some of the new five- year plates. Because of the staggered registration periods, vehicle owners must attach the EPA Regulations registration sticker them­ selves. The blue 1979 sticker goes in the top left hand corner and the red 1980 sticker should be applied to the upper right hand corner of the rear plate. "We've been advised by the secretary of state's office that a security feature of the sticker will cause it to break into small pieces if an attempt is made to remove it from the plate," Baird said. If owners inadvertently place Ihe sticker in the wrong location they should leave it there or expect to pay $3 for a replacement. Baird noted that since it is a new program his troopers will not be taking enforcement action against persons who attach the sticker improperly. "Our troopers are likely to be stopping motorists to inform them of the error though," Baird said. Report Waste Hauling Rules The Illinois Environmental Protection agency has received word that its proposed special waste hauling regulations were approved for publication by the Illinois Pollution Control board. For the next sixty days, the Illinois Pollution Control board will accept, in writing, questions or comments on this matter. "Special waste" as defined in the regulations in­ cludes pollution control waste, any industrial , waste or hazardous waste. These new waste hauling regulations require a per­ mitting system for all haulers of special waste? a manifest program and a record keeping and reporting requirement which will ensure "cradle to grave" control of all special wastes generated by some 20,000 manufacturers that are sources of industrial waste in Illinois. Chapter 9, special waste hauling regulations, as ap­ proved for publication by the Pollution Control board, will not be finalized until the end of the 60-day public comment period. All requests for copies of the new regulations should be addressed to: Illinois Pollution Control Board. 309 West Washington. Chicago. 60606 When the new special waste regulations are fully im­ plemented, the Illinois En­ vironmental Protection agency will be able to pinpoint who and where special waste is generated, and to ascertain whether this waste is being taken to an Illinois EPA per­ mitted and approved landfill, storage site, or treatment facility. In 1976, the known special waste disposed in approved and permitted landfills in Illinois exceeded 2.2 million tons. However, it is estimated that about 14 million tons of special waste is generated in Illinois. Here s Health "The coffee tastes terrible again today Maybe the cream is sour". "It's the machine, it needs servicing : but the vendor keeps forgetting to come out and fix it". "Maybe we ought to call the health department." We did that once when we kept getting sour milk from the super­ market and the store really fixed things fast " , The general public may not realize that all establishments that sell or serve food are under the jurisdiction of the local health department and must obey all rules applying to their speciality set by local county boards They must also obtain a license to operate from the health department The rules apply to r e s t a u r a n t s , v e n d i n g m a c h i n e s , s u p e r m a r k e t s , popcorn stands, commissary vans, church and other organizations givtng dinners afid even hot dog stands open only a couple of hours a day in the summer for ball games There are relatively so few c ases of food poisoning because of high hygientic standards and constant vigilance by local h e a l t h a u t h o r i t i e s l i k e t h e McHenry County Health Department, that "a touch of flu" is often blamed for illness that may possibly be caused by food contaminating bacteria. ~ Kuh& for the handling, storage, preparation, display and transportation of food are basically the same for all establishments serving or selling food: hot food must be kept hot and cold food kept cold to control disease producing bacteria and everything that comes in contact with food must be kept as clean as possible At least twice a year, at unspecified times. McHenry County Health Department sanitarians check every establishment that sells food by examining its physical con­ dition and cleanliness; looking at refrigerated and hot food storagfaittipfeipffration areas; by checking water systems for adequacy and purity to make sure the water is from an ap proved source and by checking their sewage disposal. Sanitarians also make sure employees are trained in correct food preparation and in good personal hygiene stan­ dards. The frequency and method of garbage and liquid waste disposal are also checked to prevent the establishment from becoming a nuisance in its location and to keep the waste from attracting rats, mice and other bacteria carrying vec­ tors Temporary fo$d stands at county fairs and carnivals and regular stands at ball parks are r e q u i r e d t o u s e e x t r e m e caution in handling food in the face of potentially bacteria producing circumstances Inspections of temporary stands are made every 24- hour s % Non-compliance with the regulations ca 1 result in per­ m i s s i o n t o o p e r a t e t h e e s t a b l i s h m e n t b e i n g w i t h ­ drawn.
