Petition against Las Brisas Energy Center petroleum coke burning plant

Victory! The creator of this petition declared the campaign a success. You can still sign the petition to show support.

Stop the Las Brisas Energy Center from receiving an operating permit from the EPA.

Why is this important?

Las Brisas wants to build a toxic waste incinerator that will increase area pollution by 80 percent. Area medical societies argued that this plant will harm the public's health, particularly that of young children and the elderly. Signing this petition to the EPA will encourage that agency to refuse Las Brisas an operating permit because it will not comply with the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act.
