Agricultural Burn NE of Hwy 111 and Heber Road 8-4-2023

8/4/2023
Agricultural Burns North of Calexico.
Another agricultural burn is taking place north of the city of Calexico, Ca., near the junction of Hwy 111 and Heber Road with plumes hoovering over residential areas and flooding our communities with toxic quemicals. Though these practices are legal in Imperial County, it is immoral to expose residents to agricultural burning and toxic levels of air pollution. The agency responsible for issuing permits for industrial agriculture to continue these harmful practices remains the Imperial Valley Air Pollution Control District. Children have a right to breathe clean air but instead they breathe this toxic pollution all year long. It is easier to raise children in a healthy community.
