Environment & Forest DefenseStop Romic Hazardous Waste from Polluting East Palo Alto & Gila River
After 14 years of allowing Romic to operate and violate regulations, despite having no full permits and environmental impact reports, the state Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) will be holding a hearing to take in public comments on Romic's EIR. The community of East Palo Alto will take action and demand, "NO PERMITS FOR ROMIC!"  actofterror.jpg DENY ROMIC'S PERMIT
After 14 years of allowing Romic to operate and violate regulations, despite having no full permits and environmental impact reports, the state Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) will be holding a hearing to take in public comments on Romic's EIR. YUCA and the East Palo Alto community demand that DTSC DENY ROMIC's PERMIT NOW! Our community has been waiting for this event for 14 years. For fourteen years, East Palo Alto residents have been carrying the burden of a negligent toxic waste plant AND an equally negligent government agency. DTSC's reckless behavior has given cause for a call to action. We need YOU to support us! Please attend our rally and DTSC's public hearing: Rally 5:15PM Public Hearing: 6:30 June 30, 2005, Thursday Cesar Chavez Academy 2450 Ralmar Street (Ralmar and Bay Road) East Palo Alto, CA For more information, please call us YUCA at (650)322-9165 or check out our website at: http://www.toxicfreecity.org
