Santa Barbara County Action Network has been opposed to the transfer of ownership and permits from ExxonMobil to Sable Offshore for nearly two years. Co-Executive Director Ken Hough said, “In light of Sable's recent history of disregarding orders from state and local regulators, SBCAN is relieved that the County Board exercised its discretion today in not approving the transfer of permits to Sable Offshore."
Thanks to all who turned out or sent letters to oppose restarting the pipeline!

Santa Barbara County Action Network asks you to join with community members to urge the County Planning Commission to VOTE NO on allowing Sentinel Peak Resources to truck crude oil 165 miles from Lompoc Hills to Coalinga.
Join us when we testify at the County Planning Commission public hearing to OPPOSE OIL TRUCKING on Wednesday, February 12, which begins at 9 a.m. This is now the first regular item on the agenda and will likely be heard around 9:15 a.m. or soon thereafter.
IN PERSON: Betteravia Government Center, 511 E. Lakeside Parkway, Santa Maria.
OR VIRTUALLY: Click here for the agenda and link to attend the public hearing (webinar).
Here is the link to the staff report and attachments. The Appellant Submittal is yesterday’s letter from SBCAN’s legal counsel, Law Office of Marc Chytilo, APC. The first two pages include important points that you might speak to if you are able to attend and make comments.
SBCAN, along with community partners, continues to oppose oil projects that are dangerous to our environment and our communities.
