Erin Brockovich battles Socal Gas leak
by IndyRadio/David Roknich
Tuesday Jan 26th, 2016 9:19 PM
132 residents of the affected Los Angeles neighborhood, Porter Ranch,
were evacuted and thousands more have either moved or are relocating
due to respriatory problems caused by additives to the gas. 2000
attended a community meeting last month led by Erin Brockovich ,
demanding action.
The Daily News reported:
“I feel compelled to be here and to help my neighbor,” she said. “I
certainly understand your plight and that we all have so much in
common.”
Brockovich brought an attorney from law firm Weitz & Luxenberg — where
she works, a law firm spokeswoman said — a meteorologist and a water
pollution expert who gave about an hour presentation and answered
questions from residents.
Residents asked about health concerns and whether air filtration
systems installed on their homes by the gas company would be effective.
More than 3,600 residents have left their homes or are in the process
of relocation due to the odors emitted by a leaking gas well at the
Aliso Canyon storage facility in the Santa Susana Mountains above
Porter Ranch. Mercaptan, an additive to natural gas that smells like
rotten eggs, has caused symptoms of nosebleeds, headaches, nausea,
respiratory problems and stomach discomfort among residents.
Brockovich became a household word at the turn of the century when
Julia Roberts portrayed her in a movie about her campaign against
groundwater contamination by Pacific Gas and Electric in 1993, but the
real brockovich is not frozen in time and the Socal leak is not her
only project.
Thursday at 2PM PST, she will stream live as a guest on The Reverend
Billy Show, hosted by Billy Talen and his "Stop Shopping" Gospel Choir.
