Officials in Orange County, N.Y., have begun investigating the illegal dumping of construction and demolition material near a creek in Chester, N.Y., according to a report in the Times-Herald Record (Hudson Valley, N.Y.).
Slabs of concrete, piles of asphalt and some culvert pipes have been found on county-owned property, and the county suspects that the dumping was done by a municipality, according to the report.
The creek now littered with debris flows from Glenmere Lake, a source of drinking water for the Village of Florida, N.Y., and the Orange County Jail.
