Lawsuits Target LAX Environmental Studies

From Times Staff and Wire Reports

Los Angeles County and the cities of Inglewood and Culver City have sued the federal Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration, claiming that environmental studies completed for the city’s modernization plan for Los Angeles International Airport are deficient.

The suit, filed in the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, argues that the $11-billion proposal understates the pollution that would result from increased air operations at LAX.
