The savior of employment for Boone County continues negotiations with McHenry County States Attorney Office.
County prosecutors are working with Chemtool outside of court to get the rural Crystal Lake manufacturer to cease sewage and chemical spills.
The county’s lawsuit asks for Chemtool to pay $500 and $750 a day for each day it has continued to violate county health and stormwater ordinances. The lawsuit also asks for a fine of $500 for every week it occupies the building without the permit.
