Default Tire dump

There is a place in Hamden, CT, called the "Tire Pond".
It is a huge hole where over a million tires have been dumped, then covered over with dirt. Before they covered it, it was a misqueito (spelling, I know) breeding ground. The EPA got involved and sued the owner, a former state rep.
Huge fine, and I think he declared bankruptcy, not sure. It was quite a story, back in the day.
