3. Dust and Air Pollution. Dust and air pollution carried by the wind from sources such as mining, storage areas, yards, roads, equipment, and the like, within lot boundaries, shall be kept to a minimum by appropriate landscaping, screening, paving, wetting, or other acceptable means.
4. Glare and Heat. No activity or use shall be conducted in a manner that generates glare or heat that may be detected at any point off the lot on which the use is located. Light sources shall be shielded so as not to cause a nuisance across lot lines.

8. Hazardous, Radioactive, and Toxic Materials. No activity or use shall produce hazardous, radioactive, or toxic material without prior notice to the Village. Notice shall be given to the Zoning Administrator at least 30 days before the operation is commenced. The transport, handling, storage, discharge, clean-up, and disposal of all hazardous, radioactive, or toxic materials, including waste, shall comply with applicable federal, state, county, and local regulations.
9. Industrial Wastewater. Industrial wastewater shall be disposed into a sanitary sewer unless an alternative disposal is approved by the Village Engineer. The Village Engineer may require pretreatment, a sampling manhole, and an industrial wastewater discharge permit. Industrial wastewater quality must meet the requirements of the Fox River Water Reclamation District.
10. Stormwater Disposal. All stormwater, groundwater, and landscaping run-off must be discharged into an adequate body of water, storm sewer, or approved on-site disposal system.
