The blazes that began on Jan. 7 charred thousands of buildings, cars and electronics across the Los Angeles area.

Not far from where Ceci Carroll lives, a rock-mining company has polluted the air with dust across the San Gabriel Valley, she said. Now, as crews clean charred remains from the Los Angeles wildfires, she worries about a new potential source of contamination: a site to process hazardous debris from the Eaton Fire.

“I’m concerned about the community and also the school districts here, where we have children,” said Carroll, a Duarte resident of 23 years and former local school board member. “We’re dealing with the site with the chemicals and hazardous materials,” she said. “Parents are absolutely concerned.”
