EnviroReporter.com first reported on controversial developer and architect Wayne Fishback in late 2006 in an article entitled “Fishback Mountain – One man calls his project on the L.A./Ventura border the pursuit of a dream home, but others just see an illegal solid waste dump.”
By April 2006, the dumping and grading had become more extensive as the next four photographs illustrate.

Reservoir which is downhill from the Santa Susana Field Laboratory.
The protest was directed at Wayne Fishback's property which is within a mile of the old Rocketdyne plant, also the site of heavy metal contamination.
The protester by the white truck is Todd Doherty who, along with Robert Mionske,
was unsuccessfully sued by Fishback.

District 4 includes the Fishback property in unincorporated eastern Ventura County.
While the protest took place a truck, emptied
of its load, rolled past the protesters after
making its way down Woolsey Canyon from
the Fishback property near Rocketdyne.
Robert Mionske, left, and Todd Doherty, right

to EnviroReporter.com's attention in 2006. The
Los Angeles Times, Ventura County Star and
other media outlets declined to report on the
story apparently fearful, according to activists, of
being sued by Fishback.
