1. The environmental protection agency, the dnr, or any affilation in that frame of government, if the dnr isn't the right ones they will get you in the right direction though.
2. The police or the Environmental Protection Agency are possibilities. Both may want proof. You probably should video him doing it.
3. He's doing us all a vauable service. Oil came from the Earth and he is returning it from where it came. What's wrong with putting stuff back when you're done with it?
4. i do not know but would find out,,,,, that is some toxic stuff phone book under environmental agency maybe
5. The EPA is your best bet.
6. I'd start with the Police. Next would be the City or County. If you have a Health Department, call them too, then your Fire Department should have a HAZMAT number to help you. If all that fails, go to the press or call your government Officials Offices (Mayor, City Council, Assemblymen, Representative, Governor...) Don't give up until you get someone's attention! Good luck to you & hang tough! Take photos if you can get them safely.
7. report this asap to polution control center, look it up in the yellow pages, this guy is an animal
8. your city department of public works would be a good place to start. you may even go to your local police department and tell them about it.
9. you can call the EPA but all their going to tell you is call your local P.D.
10. Confront them as to why they do this when auto repair shops take the stuff at NO CHARGE. That is a serious offense as far as polluting is concerned.
11. Your local environmental department. The court house should have that number if you can't find it in the phone book. I'm sure you could also just call the police.
12. Start with the sewer dept or your local environmental agency. The names vary according to where you live.
