Compton Blvd at Main Street has been a chronic location for the illegal dumping community. The waste is often so excessive that it takes out a traffic lane. For the past several months, we have been monitoring this location. Several businesses notify us (and the county) on a daily basis keeping us posted on the mess and/or clean up. The county is working on installing cameras at this location to mitigate the dumping. On Monday, October 30th, we sorted through the boxes of waste. Uncovering thousands of outdated invoices, company checks and personnel files from two local business which ceased operation. We took the time to drive to the address in Carson and met with the current tenant. We were able to connect with the property owner and are now waiting for information on the business owners. Hopefully, we will have success and provide that information to law enforcement and public works for investigation.
