    Really? Fixed properly how? The property owners already showed they don't give one crap about the law or the environment when they're mixing in cans / barrels of chemicals in with that trash heap. It's also revealing that the property owners family turned down the option to have this done properly and went with a hack of a company to remove whatever they could.

    I would absolutely file a complaint with the Maine DEP. In light of all the chemicals as well as the insane amount of trash, it's the proper thing to do.
