AB 356:

Oil & Gas Groundwater Monitoring

Author: Assemblymember Das Williams

The Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) improperly permitted over 2,500 wells to inject toxic chemicals and other fluids from oil and gas extraction operations into federally protected potential sources of drinking water. AB 356 would have required the State Water Board to vet DOGGR's aquifer exemptions and injection projects to ensure that sources of drinking water are protected.

About California Environmental Voters

California Environmental Voters (formerly the California League of Conservation Voters) believes the climate crisis is here and this moment requires transformative change. California has the policy solutions to stop climate change but lacks the political will to do it at the rate and scale that’s necessary. EnviroVoters exists to build the political power to solve the climate crisis, advance justice, and create a roadmap for global action. We organize voters, elect and train candidates, and hold lawmakers accountable for bold policy change. We won’t stop until we have resilient, healthy, thriving communities, and a democracy and economy that is just and sustainable for all.
