Air quality officials step up actions at Boyle Heights warehouse as odor complaints rack up

Local officials are ramping up their efforts to address persistent odor complaints at a Boyle Heights warehouse operated by Lineage, a company dealing with food waste. With a mid-August deadline looming, Lineage has reportedly cleared only about 3.5% of the waste in its facility. This situation is crucial as it impacts air quality in the surrounding areas and reflects broader issues in managing food waste. The urgency underscores the need for effective waste management solutions to prevent future public health and environmental crises.
