Require coal and petroleum coke facilities to enclose storage areas
In Plain English
The city currently allows coal and petroleum coke to be stored in open areas at industrial facilities. This creates dust that can blow into neighborhoods and harm air quality. If approved, companies must build covers or walls around these storage areas to contain the materials.
