Does anyone know the current status of the illegal dumping that has been taking place for two years on and around Guiberson Road? The last comments I saw were a little while back when a fire broke out on the river and some posts were eluding to the mulch, aka trash that appears to look like mulch, catching on fire.

There was an article in the Fillmore Gazette, November 2007, with a map showing the location, and it was regading fines given out to a waste managament company for illegal dumping and not following procedure to optain permits prior to the dumpimg. This company claimed to be restoring the land...with glass, styrofoam, plasic and who knows what else is in this junk called "mulch" being hauled in from LA.

What I want to know is, have the necessary permits been optained? Or has everyone forgot or turned their backs to that same canyon area being filled to the brim with the supposed mulch on a continuing basis. I walk in the hills above this canyon and can barely believe that this is being allowed to continue. What is going to happen when we get another rain that takes all that trash to the river?

I have also walked the orchards within this same area and found beneath the "mulch" plastic oil bottles, bleach bottles and tons of other trash.

I am angry about this beautiful area being turned into a dump and endless trucks on this road arriving with more trash on a daily basis. Why would we let this happen to what was once upon a time known as... one the most scenic byways by Sunset Magagzine.

Fillmore officials please go out there and take a good look.
