They are forced to shoulder a disproportionate burden of the negative human health impacts of pollution
They have insufficient public information on human health and environmental planning, regulations and enforcement
They do not have fair treatment and involvement in development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws
YES - ALL OF THE ABOVE - based on the federal government definition of Environmental Justice, they are victims of injustice
No - pollution from steel mills is healthy, so residents do not suffer negative impacts - regulation and laws are unnecessary
