Asthma Coalition of Los Angeles County (ACLAC)

DUMP DIESEL Date: Tuesday, January 24, 2017 Time: 6 pm - 8 pm Location: Banning's Landing Community Center, 100 E. Water St, Wilmington, CA 90744... The Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach are holding a public meeting to discuss their Clean Air Action Plan (CAAP), which as drafted, allows diesel trucks to continue polluting the air our children breathe until 2035. We simply can't subject our families to 17 more years of dirty diesel emissions. The Port Commissioners need to hear YOUR voice. Join us next Tuesday and let the Ports know: it's time to Dump Diesel.
