Title/Name/Summary
Norman's Cleaners - Environmental Land Use Control
History
As part of the remediation activities associated with the former Norman’s Cleaners, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ("IEPA") requires land use limitations that will protect against exposure to contaminated soil or groundwater in perpetuity, or until such time as the IEPA determines that the risk is mitigated. The adoption of an Environmental Land Use Control (ELUC) satisfies this requirement.
Specifically, the ELUC effectively prohibits the use of groundwater for any water usage, and further stipulates that all water must be obtained from a public water supply. The limits of the control area include the remediation site as well as that any land within 47’ of the property.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve an Environmental Land Use Control (ELUC) for the Norman’s Cleaners property as outlined above.
