Past EPA violations at company with ties to Fredericktown’s CMR
SUMMARY: The Frederick Town Recycling Center, which recently caught fire, is linked to Critical Mineral Recovery (CMR), a company with a history of EPA violations. Both CMR and the Madison, Illinois facility share the same president. Past incidents in Madison resulted in 14 EPA violations related to hazardous waste disposal and facility standards. According to attorney Al Watkins, while CMR and the fire may not be directly connected, the fire itself led to violations. CMR states it collaborates with the EPA to enhance safety measures. Investigations are ongoing regarding the previous violations and the recent fire’s implications.

How to spot Amazon Prime Day scams
SUMMARY: Amazon’s longest Prime Day sale, now lasting four days, has increased opportunities for scammers targeting shoppers. Cybersecurity experts warn about phishing emails, fake websites, and fraudulent text messages mimicking Amazon to steal personal and credit card information. Scammers send messages claiming order issues to trick users into clicking malicious links. Over 120,000 fake Amazon websites have been identified, designed to capture sensitive data by copying Amazon’s site but using deceptive URLs. Experts advise verifying orders directly on Amazon’s official website and carefully checking URLs and email addresses to avoid falling victim to these scams during the Prime Day event.
Amazon Prime Day can be a prime time for shoppers. Adobe Analytics forecasts Prime Day will generate $23.8 billion in sales across retailers, up 28% from the same period last year. Cybersecurity experts say scammers are also looking to cash in.
