Public Comments opposed to Valero’s Crude by Rail Project

On February 9th and 10th during the Benicia Planning Commission hearings on the Final Environmental Impact Report for Valero’s Crude by Rail proposal, the public spoke. This video contains extracts of those who opposed the project.

This 1½-hour segment shows many, but far from all of the nearly 50 who spoke against Valero’s dangerous and dirty oil train proposal on Feb. 9-10.  The video begins with the formal presentation of Benicians For a Safe and Healthy Community, by Marilyn Bardet and Andrés Soto.

The full video of all four Feb. 8-11 Planning Commission meetings can be found at the City’s website, Agendas & Minutes.
