The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has initiated assessments to determine the extent of hazardous waste left behind by recent wildfires. The EPA incident commander, Tara Fitzgerald, announced that personnel are currently on the ground in the Eaton and Palisades areas conducting these assessments.
Workers equipped with head-to-toe protective gear are tasked with identifying and removing all visible hazardous waste from residential properties. This crucial step must be completed before the next phase of cleanup can commence.
