Where may I dispose of my household wastes, solvents, paints, and paint cans?
Check with your local authorities (town, county, state) for directions on how to dispose correctly of household wastes, solvents, paints, and paint cans.2. What am I required to do when the property owners next door/ex-employers/competitors have discarded objectionable waste on their property and it has led to groundwater and air contamination? What if I have reports of alleged illegal or offensive releases or dumping and local authorities have ignored these situations?Check with your local authorities (state, region). States are typically the agencies authorized to operate programs for clean air, groundwater, and solid waste. Regional EPA offices will have information about current Superfund investigations and potential new ones. Contact these regional offices with reports of alleged illegal or offensive releases or dumping in cases where local authorities have not responded.
