I support a strong, enforceable risk bond ordinance that includes a penalty of $25,000/day for non-compliance, applicable to all facilities regulated by the DEQ Fuel Tank Seismic Stability program and going into effect within 2 years.
ACTION ITEM #2: Show up in red at 11:00am on Thursday, Nov. 21 to watch the Multnomah County Commissioners discuss the ordinance at the County building on 501 SE Hawthorne!
Background: Time to demand that polluters pay up front for damages, clean up and putting our lives & environment in danger!
