Hi everyone!

Years of community advocacy have finally moved the City of LA to schedule a Nuisance Abatement Revocation hearing to consider closing the drill site!

The City’s Nuisance Abatement Revocation process allows the City to investigate reported nuisances that have undermined public peace, health, and safety in the surrounding community. Given the long history of regulatory violations at the Murphy Drill Site, the hearing could result in the revocation of E&B’s conditional use permit - meaning it could shut down the drill site! This process is more potent than the one used to shut down the Jefferson Drill Site in 2019. It is our best shot at closing the Murphy Drill Site.

Dr. Jill Johnson will share her research on public health harms to residents. EarthJustice attorneys will review the nuisance abatement process and next steps. You will leave with everything you need to turn out residents and speak at the July 23 online public hearing. RSVP for lunch!

¡Hola a todos!

¡Años de abogacía comunitaria han logrado finalmente que la Ciudad de Los Ángeles programe un proceso de Revocación por Eliminación de Molestias Públicas (Nuisance Abatement) para considerar el cierre del sitio de perforación!

El proceso de Revocación por Eliminación de Molestias Públicas de la Ciudad permite a las autoridades investigar las quejas reportadas sobre molestias que han socavado la paz pública, la salud y la seguridad en la comunidad. Dada la larga historia de infracciones regulatorías en el Sitio de Perforación Murphy, el proceso podría resultar en la revocación del permiso de uso condicional de E&B, ¡lo que significa el cierre definitivo del sitio de perforación! Este proceso es más contundente que el utilizado para cerrar el Sitio de Perforación Jefferson en 2019. Es nuestra mejor oportunidad para lograr el cierre del Sitio de Perforación Murphy.

- Los residentes compartirán sus testimonios de primera mano sobre los daños a la salud y otros impactos negativos provocados por el Sitio de Perforación Murphy. Haremos un resumen del historial de infracciones regulatorias. La Dra. Jill Johnson compartirá los resultados de su investigación sobre los daños a la salud pública que sufren los residentes. Los abogados de EarthJustice explicarán el proceso de Eliminación de Molestias Públicas y los próximos pasos a seguir. Al finalizar, contarán con toda la información necesaria para movilizar a otros residentes y participar como oradores en la audiencia pública virtual del 23 de julio. ¡Confirmen su asistencia si desean almorzar con nosotros!

“Too many of our neighborhoods have carried the burden of industrial pollution for decades,” said Richard Parks, President and Co-founder of Redeemer Community Partnership. “Culver City’s action shows that we don’t have to choose between economic opportunity and community health. By moving toward clean, zero-emissions manufacturing, we can reduce harmful pollution, protect families living nearby, and invest in a future where our communities can truly thrive.”

USC is the largest industrial gas boiler polluter in LA County. Following months of diligent research and preparation, our youth invited LA County Supervisor and South Coast Air Quality Managment District board member Holly Mitchell to discuss the urgent need to protect breathers with zero-emission rules to replace dirty boilers. By their community leadership and love of neighbor our youth set an example for us all to emulate.
