Ballona Wetlands: Discovery of Shocking and Flagrant Violations of California Superior Court Order Sparks Cease & Desist Letter to State Agencies and SoCalGas
Environmental public interest lawyer Jamie T. Hall has issued a Cease & Desist letter, notifying the California Department of Fish & Wildlife (CDFW), State Lands Commission (SLC) and SoCalGas that they have 10 days to stop development activities at the Ballona Wetlands Ecological Reserve (owned by CDFW and SLC) – a rare coastal ecosystem that has been fought over for decades, and also on adjacent property owned by SoCalGas where wetlands and other sensitive habitats exist. Both the ecological reserve and the SoCalGas properties are included within the project site of a habitat alteration and gas infrastructure project area where California Superior Court Judge James C. Chalfant issued a strong and clear injunction order last summer to ensure no harm to the ecosystem. If activities outlined in the letter are not stopped, environmental community coalition groups Protect Ballona Wetlands and Defend Ballona Wetlands will be forced to return to Court to seek further remedies, according to Hall.
