Ports Conflict At Least, Or Collusion With Gas Drilling Industry

-

I would sure like to learn more about the slime-ball tactics of the fracked- and drilled-gas industry. I think there is a Polluters Alliance of the ports and frackers.

Take a look at how POLB already, and POLA coming up, have put in TEU fee waivers for LNG trucks.

It should be no surprise AT ALL that POLA and POLB are backing the fracked-gas industry in waiving fees for LNG trucks.

The ports are backing another industry that profits from externaliz­ing its air pollution problem onto the public health. They are on the same side arguing that CEQA should be curbed, that regulation­s should be less rigorous and enforcemen­t winked at or to be avoided.

Essentiall­y, it is collusion or a conflict of interest as they enable and welcome another polluting industry to fight CARB, AQMD, and add to the bought Democrats in state government who side with the polluters and not the public.
