Monrovia's concerns about EPA's parking Eaton Fire waste in Azusa - Communication, transportation, groundwater

Location of Lario Staging Area.

Monrovia is concerned that the Environmental Protection Agency did not inform or consult local cities on its plans to park the waste from the Altadena cleanup at the federal Lario Staging Area in Azusa. In addition to the lack of communication, the cities are concerned about groundwater and soil contamination as the site borders an aquifer that serves more than 1 million people. They were also concerned that waste trucks were told to use Huntington Drive, though that has since shifted to the 210 freeway.

  1. Fill the trucks in Altadena and take it out to the desert. Why is there a need to contaminate everyone?

  2. Can anyone tell us about the site across the street, the Vulcan Materials Irwindale Landfill? EPA is moving large bags there. It seems to be where the trucks are actually going.
