A recent cable program, Asbestos on the Shoreline, on Marge's Corner in Highland Park, IL is an interview by Marge Howard with Paul Kakuris, the President of Illinois Dunesland Preservation Society and Jeffery Camplin, Dunesland's asbestos health and safety expert engineer. The program exposes the massive asbestos contamination on the Illinois shoreline that has been covered-up by many local, state, and federal officials who are charged to enforce environmental regulations and protect the public's health and safety.
