PEAC
Air Issues
PEAC is committed to tackling the environmental causes and impacts of global warming. One way we express this commitment is through our critical work on air quality. From halting the building of chemical factories and coal-fired power plants to advising rule-makers on how to clean up Northwest skies to monitoring pollution permits, PEAC has achieved critical victories and tackled ambitious and far-reaching projects, including those below.
-
On behalf of clients, PEAC has filed a 60-day notice of intent to file suit against the Columbia River Crossing project. -
Two articles published in The Oregonian on Saturday featured PEAC: one on the ESCO Good Neighbor Agreement and the other on the Columbia River Crossing. -
PEAC attorney Tom Buchele is quoted in this article on the Columbia River Crossing from ClimateWire: “How a bridge divides the environmentally conscious in Portland, Ore.” -
After years of negotiation, PEAC has helped community activists in Northwest Portland to win a Good Neighbor Agreement with steel foundry company ESCO to reduce pollution by an estimated 20%.
