Huge environmental justice victory in AGENA case

Characterizing the case as “an impressive display of David besting Goliath,” the front-page of the Sacramento Bee today heralds a victory in the AGENA case: State regulators reject Sacramento gas storage plan. LSNC for the last five years has represented AGENA, a local neighborhood association, in a long-running battle to prevent a natural gas company from storing billions of cubic feet of natural gas in caverns under a low-income community of color in south Sacramento. The Sacramento Bee today also ran an editorial praising the decision.
