The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved a toxic waste sorting site at Will Rogers Beach, sparking outrage among residents, environmentalists, and local businesses. The site will be used to process wildfire debris containing asbestos, heavy metals, dioxins, and other hazardous pollutants—all just steps from the Pacific Ocean.
Toxic contaminants from the wildfire debris could leach into the soil and waterways. Onshore winds will carry hazardous particulates, compromising the air quality where people live, work, and play. The risk to our ocean’s health is just as alarming.
