Please join us on Thursday, February 13 for an urgent SSFL Work Group meeting, SSFL Cleanup Crisis: Finding a Path Forward. Boeing, the Dept. of Energy, and NASA signed agreements in 2010 to fully clean up all of SSFL’s contamination by 2017. But the cleanup hasn’t even begun. Recently, all three responsible parties have indicated their intent to break their cleanup agreements and leave most of the contamination on the site permanently.
The cleanup is now at an impasse, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. If SSFL isn’t fully cleaned up as promised, nearby communities will continue to be at risk of exposure to dangerous radiation and toxic chemicals.
We’re pleased to announce that California EPA Secretary Jared Blumenfeld will join us on February 13 to discuss SSFL cleanup efforts. The meeting will also include a public Q&A with a panel of experts, community members, and elected officials.
Please do all that you can to attend. The cleanup is at a critical juncture, and it’s going to take all of us to make sure that we get the full cleanup that we were promised.
