"The Petaluma Health Care District Board of Directors sent a letter to all Sonoma County supervisors on Thursday asking them to be sure to address all health concerns before voting on whether to approve the Dutra asphalt plant on Tuesday, Dec. 14."
"In the letter sent on Thursday, Ostroff states that at a recent PHCD board meeting, community members voiced concern over the number of diesel truck trips that will be made to and from the proposed asphalt plant.
“These trips may be a primary source of particulate matter 2.5 that has been linked to heart disease, diabetes and asthma,” Ostroff wrote. “There was also concern that there was not adequate assessment of the requirements outlined by the California Environmental Quality Act for industrial projects.”
