City of Los Angeles Latest Updates

  • City of Los Angeles recovery and resources page

  • Guidance from LA County Public Health:

  • Odor Mitigation: Impacted residents can report odors, smoke, and other air quality issues to South Coast AQMD by calling 1-800-CUT-SMOG (1-800-288-7664), via the online complaint portal at www.aqmd.gov, or through their mobile app. 

  • Air Quality Testing: All data is being fed into SCAQMD’s air quality map that can be found at www.AQMD.gov or by downloading the South Coast AQMD mobile app.

  • Stormwater and Groundwater Testing: All water leaving the property enters a City of Los Angeles catch basin that leads into an LA County storm drain system. The LA County storm drain travels directly to the Los Angeles River and outfalls near Downey Road and Bandini Boulevard. The LASAN Environmental Monitoring Division is conducting analysis for the presence of the following: Antimony, Arsenic, Barium, Beryllium, Cadmium, Chromium, Cobalt, Copper, Lead, Mercury, Molybdenum, Nickel, Selenium, Silver, Thallium, Vanadium, and Zinc. LASAN has utilized containment tanks, eco dams, catch basin protectors, and vector trucks to capture, contain, and pump runoff to the sewer system for treatment. LASAN will continue to monitor and enforce compliance to prevent illicit discharges from the site and ensure that all water is properly removed and treated.
