In august we sat down with director debby rafell. She said permit reform would be a top pyriority. I would suggest and agree our permitting program is not operating as effectively as it could. Reporter critics are not satisfied with what they call continued lip service. They point to Evergreen Oil in newark and says they have a history of leak, spills and explosions.
