On Feb 17, 2016 a story compiled by Kristin Leigh titled ‘Auto shops accused of dumping waste into local creeks’ on fox13memphis.com reported the following: “A local tire recycling site is accusing auto shops of contributing to the problem. FOX13 received a complaint about blight and litter on Hwy 51 in Nonconnah Creek. Tires, used auto scrap, full trash bags and waste is scattered along the creek’s banks. The dumping site is across the street from Liberty Tire Recycling Center. Kristin Leigh asked employees at the facility if they know who is contributing to the problem. Calvin Johnson, an employee at the facility, says auto shops don’t want to pay the fees to dump tires at the facility, so they illegally dump them throughout the city.

The City of Memphis & Liberty Tire Recycling work together to give shops a place to dispose of these items. It costs $10/ton to use the facility. The Liberty contract with the city requires that the company keep track of businesses that use the facility, and inform the city. Employees at Liberty say city officials can figure out what businesses may be dumping illegally via process of elimination. FOX13 provided the city with pictures of the dumping ground and officials will investigate. Arlenia Cole, a city spokesperson, says the city has workers focused on cleanup efforts and Public Works is cleaning these sites while discouraging such activity by utilizing enforcement strategies. Cole says the city spends more than $2M each year removing illegally dumped items. Illegal dumping violators face arrest and fines, in addition to restitution, employees at Liberty say violators aren’t held accountable. To report illegal dumping, you can use the 311 call center or the 311 app.” The complete article is available here.
