Food Waste From LA Fire Heads to Simi Valley | Los Angeles News
Description
A massive fire at a Lineage Logistics warehouse in East L.A. destroyed 80 million pounds of food, sparking a sprawling cleanup effort that’s shipping waste to nine California sites plus Utah and Arizona. Simi Valley Landfill is one of the recipients, raising alarms among locals despite no direct smoke reaching them — the stench of rotting food is now their concern. The Ventura County Air Pollution Control District has already slapped the landfill with a public nuisance violation over odors. While the main warehouse site is finally cleared of bulk waste after two months, the fallout continues as officials push for a full environmental probe — proving disasters ripple far beyond the initial blaze.
