Clark County says they're investigating a dumping ground near Smiley and Lamb where a boat, RV, and cars were left on the side of the road.

The cars and boat were left torched, and it looks as if people stripped them for parts.

Kirk Erickson, who owns a business across the street, says its become an eyesore, and the problem has been going on for years.

Recently, some people posted pictures of the dumping ground on Facebook.  In response, Commission Marilyn Kirkpatrick wrote that the county believed they found the person responsible for dumping there and they're working to get it cleaned up.

The maximum penalty for illegal dumping is 6 months in jail and a $1,000 fine.
