gary development landfill

479 N. CLINE AVENUE

The 62-acre Gary Development Landfill site is located at 479 Cline Avenue, in a primarily industrial neighborhood. The site is bordered to the north and east by E & J Railway tracks, to the south by the Grand Calumet River and to the west by AMG Resources Corporation. There are wetlands on the southeastern portion of the property along the Grand Calumet River bank. The Gary Development Landfill was a permitted solid waste landfill that accepted unauthorized hazardous waste for disposal. The landfill operated on the now abandoned site from approximately 1975 to 1989. The landfill has no proper liners, no engineered cover and no functioning surface water run-on or runoff management systems in place. The company that owned the landfill is no longer in business.
