FILE - In this June 20, 2012 file photo, construction is seen going on at the Clinton Landfill near Clinton, Ill. Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn believes approvals the central Illinois county gave to the landfill did not include the potential storage of toxic PCBs the facility's owner now wants to store. If that's true, Quinn spokesman Dave Blanchette said Tuesday, July 22, 2014, that state law might allow the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency to withdraw its approval of the plan to store toxic waste at Clinton. The landfill sits over the Mahomet aquifer, a source of drinking water for thousands of people across central Illinois. (AP Photo/Seth Perlman, File)
