The lawsuit may lead to a reevaluation of the project's environmental impact and potentially delay or alter the project's plans, highlighting the importance of adhering to environmental regulations in large-scale infrastructure projects.
What happened
Environmental groups have joined a lawsuit against the City of Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) over their failure to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in the Scattergood Hydrogen Retrofit project.
