The California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA) and the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) have just released an updated version of the environmental justice tool, CalEnviroScreen. CalEnviroScreen 4.0 reflects the public input on the draft released in February 2021 and previous versions.
Please see the OEHHA supplemental analysis and StoryMap accompanying CalEnviroScreen 4.0 which shows the dramatic differences in the racial composition of the state’s census tracts depending on their pollution burdens and vulnerabilities.
