“US EPA joins investigation into Chiquita Canyon Landfill violations”

“The smell from the landfill has prompted a lawsuit and complaints from nearby residents in the communities of Castaic and Val Verde since July. Barger, the Los Angeles County supervisor who represents that 5th District, issued a statement Wednesday via Helen Chavez, her director of communications, and reported by the Signal following an advisory committee meeting saying the EPA is “bringing resources to the table for an incident that has gone on for far too long.””
