Description
Petitioners, who seek to prevent installation of a sludge landfill by respondent, Elgin Sanitary District (ESD), appeal directly to this court from an order of the Pollution Control Board (PCB), which upheld a decision of the Kane County Board approving the proposed site for that purpose. The proposed sludge landfill site covers a 79-acre area and centers on a quarry which has been excavated to a depth of 25 feet below grade. The site is directly north of the Fox River and is located northeast of the intersection of McLean Boulevard and Route 31 in unincorporated Kane County. The project is part of Elgin Sanitary District's proposed four-step pollution control plan required under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C. § 1251 et seq. (1982)). The overall planning area under consideration comprises approximately 82 square miles with a 1980 population of 132,000 people. The area has many industrial waste contributors to its sewage system and a variety of chemicals are found in the resulting sludge produced by the pollution control process. Approximately 750,000 cubic yards of sludge are expected to be landfilled during the estimated 20-year life of the proposed site.
