SIMI LANDFILL
LA FIRES > AQ SIMI LANDFILL
Thousands of tons of debris from the 2025 Los Angeles Fires are being disposed of at the Simi Valley Landfill. Government officials claim the debris does not pose any risk to public health or the environment, but residents want independent data to support those claims.
FUNDRAISER
We believe that long-term monitoring should be implemented to track air quality from the Simi Landfill and along the trucking route, which may be impacted by the LA Fires debris. First, we need to raise $30,000 for monitoring equipment by Quant AQ.
You can see how similar monitors have been set up to track the LA Fires and its waste on the CalTech website (this is the network our QuantAQ monitor would be connected to) and provides scientists and residents with real-time AQ data: https://breathe.caltech.edu/phoenix
If you'd like to make a tax-deductible donation towards the Quant AQ Monitors, it can be made at www.parentsagainstssfl.com/donate.
Please click the "Air Monitoring Network" button to designate your gift towards the AQ Monitors. 100% of your designated donation will go towards the AQ monitors in Simi Valley.
HAPPENINGS
We will be attending the Simi Valley City Council meeting on Monday, May 5th at 6:30 pm.
We would welcome you to attend with us to provide a public comment on why the City should cover the costs for Quant AQ monitors to ensure the safety and health of the community after accepting the LA Fires waste into Simi's landfill.

Air Quality 101
PASSFL is working with scientists at UC, Davis and UCLA to set up air quality monitoring near the Simi Valley Landfill to get accurate, independent data to help inform residents and elected officials of any risks the LA Fires Debris could pose to public health or the environment.
