thank you Mary.  I got the environment air quality folks and they said if they can they will send today, but many inspectors already out, so maybe Monday, but they will try.
 
I urge others who are concerned to also complain.  DDOE is  202-535-2250 , Lead office is  202-535-1931 
 
I personally cannot believe there is not a place on the DC Gov web site to quickly report suspected violations.  Unbelievable.

P.S. -- the fact that DCRA dismissed the complaint b/c they had a permit for the dumpster is absurd.  The dumpster is not the problem, what and how they are putting debris in it is...seriously, this logic implies that as long I have a permit for a container, I can dump toxic waste in it anywhere I want.  absurd.

Hi Neighbors:
 
This morning (Friday) I reported the problem dumpster & building clouds at 1854 Mintwood  to the Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs, which informed me the people have a permit for the dumpster.  (We already knew that.)  The best DCRA can do is send an inspector out "on Monday or Tuesday."
 
I then called the Department of the Environment--main number.  They have their answering machine on; I didn't leave a message.
 
While the air is blowing we are all breathing in this gunky crap, and stepping in the dust and tracking it around.  We have at least several small children on this street, who are more vulnerable.
 
I know that government officials watch this list.  Pardon me for being pissed, but this is the sort of thing you need to address--not mysterious animal noises.
