SUBJECT;. REQUEST FOR UPDATE ON CLOSURE OF GBF DUMP SITE AND DETAILED
REPORT ON RECENT PCB SPILL AT THE SITE
SPEC IFIC RE EST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S ) & BACKGROUND AMID JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Request a report be provided for the
Board of Supervisors on the closure of the GBF dump site and details
of a spill of PCB as reported in newspapers this past week. Refer
this matter to the Environmental Health and County Counsel for a .
report back to. the Board of Supervisors .on November 3 , 1987 .
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Questions have arisen as to
disclosures required -at current land fill sites regarding disposal of
. hazardous materials. I believe that extensive and full records should
be kept and severe criminal penalities levied when. any company or the
site operators fail to properly disclose hazardous material loads or
if disposal is not done properly. If we do not have current county
laws on the books in this regard, the county should . consider
implementing a county ordinance to regulate• this area above and beyond
what. the state laws currently in effect.
