Councilmember McOsker on Judge's Ruling to Shut Down Operations at Atlas Metals Recycling

"The judge’s decision to shut down operations at S&W Atlas Iron & Metal is a victory for Watts and a testament to the relentless advocacy of Tim Watkins, the WLCAC, the Better Watts Initiative, Jordan High students, and all the activists who fought for environmental justice,” said Councilmember Tim McOsker. “The Watts community has endured toxic exposure for far too long—this is a step towards ensuring every resident can live, learn, and thrive in a safe and healthy environment."
