Portland Council Adopts Zenith Accountability Resolution March 21, 2025
Sierra Club Oregon Chapter
Samantha Hernandez of Oregon Physicians for Social Responsibility said,
“Accountability and proper oversight are needed to ensure that communities, especially those who live and work in the Critical Energy Infrastructure (CEI) Hub, are not further put at risk. Zenith has a long history of committing violations endangering the health and safety of Portland residents, accumulating over twenty violations from the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). It is so encouraging to see Portland City Councilors taking action to protect public health and safety.”
