Youth United for Community Action is hosting a Community Town Hall on Groundwater Rise & Contaminated Sites on May 23, 2025, at EPACenter.
PACT Members tabled at the Love Out Earth Festival in Menlo Park on April 26, 2025.
PACT is participating in state advocacy efforts in support of Assembly Bill 1102, a bill that will require the Department of Toxic Substances Control and the State Water Resources Control Board to submit a report to the Legislature identifying contaminated sites that are vulnerable to sea level rise and groundwater rise by January 1, 2027. See PACT's support letter here.
We are asking for signatures from East Palo Alto and Menlo Park residents on a letter asking the City Councils to support our research on testing local sewers and homes for VOCs. See the letter and sign here.
PACT submitted a public comment letter on the Draft Regional Shoreline Adaptation Plan (RSAP) in October 2024. Many of our concerns were addressed in the Final RSAP adopted by the BCDC in December 2024. We look forward to seeing this work move forward and will continue to partner with the BCDC on this effort.
