Summary: An individual resident expresses concern over the long-term environmental and health impacts of coal ash pits and urges the EPA to prioritize public safety. The commenter advocates for stricter oversight based on hydrogeological evidence and personal experience with industrial pollution.
I would like to thank EPA for taking the time to evaluate public comment. I urge your agency to consider to long term effects of the legacy Coal Ash pits throughout the state. My opinion since back in 1995 the evidence/ science facts was there and ignored. All that I have learned throughout this process Hydrogeologists have given facts/figures and still the public outcry is continually ignored. Why?I had previously lived under those nasty dark plumes coming from the Midwest Generation station in Romeoville, learning what was being immitted for all to breathe, quite astounding and very disturbing. I urge your agency to please to what is right for the people your protecting. Thank you
