Waste Tire Amnesty Program
Farm Bureau has four representatives on Imperial County's Illegal Dumping Task Force to help prevent and clean up illegal dumping throughout the rural areas of Imperial County. As part of this effort, the County's environmental health department is working to coordinate a one-time waste tire cleanup.
The timing and details of the cleanup are still being determined, but we need your help! Please complete this survey, and submit information on the quantity and location of waste tires on your property. This information will be compiled by Farm Bureau and submitted in aggregate form to the County to help with planning this tire collection event.
If you have any questions about the program, contact Farm Bureau or call Jeff LaMoure, Director of the County's Environmental Health Department, at 760-336-8530.
