Report NSP Violations to the EPA Online


It's very easy to fill out and submit. I just said that we have a federally funded Neighborhood Stabilization Program that has already been caught violating lead abatement laws and is doing it again. It's been reported to the state, but they don't seem interested in doing much about it. And I posted links to news articles about the NSP lead violations and lack of follow-up, such as http://racineuncovered.org/?p=31558 and http://racineuncovered.org/?p=32433 You can submit a complaint anonymously.

One or two of those complaints will probably mean nothing. A few dozen might get them to start thinking about what's going on in Racine.

Party on, lying John!

    The EPA contracts for DNR services and The DNR moves like molasses, its a morass of bureaucracy.

    I know they're slow. I don't expect the EPA to swoop down on Racine and cart off Dickert. But maybe they'll contact the state and say, "Hey, are you looking into this?" Every little bit helps. I can't just bitch and bitch anymore and not do anything. I am starting to talk to people. I had a conversation with a neighbor today. I think he'll be voting for Marcus. Every little bit helps.
