California could be the site of the next oil train disaster, unless we take action now.

Multinational oil company Phillips 66 is proposing to expand its San Luis Obispo County refinery to receive oil trains carrying explosive, toxic, and carbon intensive tar sands oil. If approved, more of these oil trains will begin rolling through California's communities, threatening schools, homes, community centers, and parks. Over 5 million California residents live in the oil train blast zone.

The San Luis Obispo County Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors will make the final decision on this project, and they need to hear from us - residents of SLO County and other impacted California communities. Take action now and tell SLO County decision makers to reject this dangerous project.

By signing this petition, you’ll be joining over 23,000 concerned citizens that submitted comments against the project, along with 15 cities and counties and 7 school boards that have written letters of opposition.

Sign ASAP and pass along to your contacts. Thanks!​
