Background:

On Thursday January 31st, the new Oregon legislature released a draft of their environment bill.  In Section 11, semi-conductor manufacturers get to continue to pollute at no extra charge for 5 years. That includes Intel which is opening a new facility in Hillsboro.

Here is supporting documentation:

• Draft of Oregon’s cap-and-trade bill
• Contact Dale Feik, project manager at Hillsboro Air & Water, at 503-504-5972 for more details
• Washington County Democrats passed a resolution in 2015 about Intel’s emissions
• Washington County Citizen Action Network, Dale Feik is the former chair.
  • Click on Intel links, in particular the resources and media.  You can read the huge amounts of toxic air emissions that Intel is currently allowed to emit into our common airshed.
