Orozco, Norma <br /> From: Dale Helvig <helvig_denny@msn.com> <br /> Sent: Tuesday, July 19, 2022 12:20 PM <br /> To: Thai, Minh; eComment; Sarmiento, Vicente; Phan, Thai; Penaloza, David; Lopez, Jessie; <br /> Bacerra, Phil; Hernandez, Jose; Mendoza, Nelida <br /> Cc: Ridge, Kristine; Carvalho, Sonia R.; Mendoza, Steven; Zelaya Melicher, Fabiola <br /> Subject: RE: 2022-07-19 CC Meeting General Comment: Lead Contamination in Santa Ana <br /> Attachments: Orange County Register 2022-07-10.pdf <br /> Mr. Minh Thai, <br /> Environmental Justice is a complex issue. I think it is being made worse by how the City is presenting it. Below <br /> you reference the SB1000 definition of a disadvantaged community. I don't dispute this. However, the point I <br /> would like people to understand in the definition of Environmental Justice. <br /> The EPA website on https://www.epa.gov/environmentaliustice states: <br /> Environmental justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of <br /> all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income, with respect <br /> to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental <br /> laws, regulations, and policies. <br /> As such I believe we need to consider other areas of the City of Santa that have been overlooked, as a minimum, <br /> the homes adjacent to the interstate highways and those areas that have high lead contamination. By the EPA <br /> definition,income should not exclude a home from Environmental Justice. I still feel the cities analysis is flawed <br /> in addressing Environmental Justice [Environmental Justice Background and Analysis March 2021 - City of Santa Ana <br /> (santa-ana.org)]. <br /> From the link you provided, Environmental Justice-City of Santa Ana (santa-ana.org) most of the area south of 17th street <br /> and east of 1-5, should have been included as a EJ Community,yet it was not. <br /> Environmental Justice - City of Santa Ana (santa-ana.org), page 19: <br /> 1 <br />
