The Boone County Board was asked by a resident Wednesday to contact the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ….
Resident Karen Ciesielczyk said she was concerned about the odor and potentially toxic haze ….She said she contacted the Boone County Department of Health and Boone County Planning and Zoning Department, which directed her to the IEPA.
“The IEPA … suggested that I obtain the support of state legislators in order to generate support for an investigation at the state level,” she said.
Outside Ciesielczyk’s concerns, Boone County State’s Attorney Michelle Courier wrote in a letter obtained by the Rockford Register Star that the mulch piles must be removed within 10 days from July 13 or the office will be forced to file a lawsuit.
