It was recently reported that the EPA recently awarded $300,000 to Pacoima Beautiful to target high diesel emissions and promote “green” practices among auto dismantlers".
This is great news as historically disadvantaged communities have suffered disproportionate negative affects from living in close proximate to industrial sites. Last Fall I was visiting the Barrio Logan area of Santa Ana and saw first hand the ill effects on a community living near a recyling plant. The water run off from the plant went right into the sewer. This affects the groundwater in a negative manner. No wonder there are water stores in disadvantaged communties.
