The Los Angeles and Ventura County Board of Supervisors (BOS) and the City of Los Angeles all passed similar resolutions to sue the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) if the Santa Susana Field Lab’s Programmatic Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) wouldn’t result in the complete cleanup of the site.
The PEIR will let Boeing leave 90% of their property contaminated and 65% of NASA and the Department of Energy’s soil contaminated at the Santa Susana Field Lab. It’s a trainwreck of an agreement that limits how much soil can be remediated in the future. Despite the DTSC’s claims, it’s a decision document. It’s nothing near a complete cleanup.
It’s been almost a year and the Board of Supervisors and City of Los Angeles haven’t sued the DTSC. We can’t wait any longer. Every day that goes by is another day that someone in our community could be exposed to dangerous contamination. We want the complete “background” cleanup now!
Speak up for the Cleanup
