Subject: | [CPEO-MEF] Regulators to penalize Boeing at Santa Susana Lab (CA) |
Regulators back neighbors in Boeing case Company's request to ease water-pollution rules rejected By Kerry Cavanaugh Los Angeles Daily News January 20, 2006 SIMI VALLEY - Los Angeles regulators Thursday rejected the Boeing Co.'s request to relax water-pollution limits at the Santa Susana Field Lab and said they plan to punish the company for nearly 50 water-quality violations at the site last year. The decision by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board overruled a request by Boeing and the U.S. Air Force to weaken pollution limits on storm water flowing off the hilltop lab for four years. Rather, the appointed board sided with environmentalists and lab neighbors who complained that Boeing has repeatedly violated its water-quality permit with impunity. "The public has borne these costs and now it's time for the polluter to bear these costs," said board member Francine Diamond. ?
