The Natural Resources Defense Council or NRDC, Citizens for a Better Environment or CBE and the Philadelphia Clean Air Council or CBE, have filed a federal lawsuit against the EPA seeking a nationwide phaseout of Hydrogen Fluoride or HF/MHF in the massive amounts used in refineries. It is a highly dangerous chemical still used at the Torrance refinery. This is the best chance to force conversion to a vastly safer process.
On June 10, there will be a federal court hearing at the First Street Courthouse in downtown Los Angeles, to address whether community members living within the refinery danger zone have standing in the case.
Join to fill the courtroom and demonstrate that the South Bay community continues to demand a safer alternative.
This event is being organized with community partners including Indivisible activists, Sierra Club and other environmental advocates.
