What we're working on

Protect South Portland’s focus is returning to the tanks and the emissions: what residents at the fence line have felt and smelled for years, and what the new fence-line data now confirms.

South Portland Tank Farms

120 large petroleum tanks run by six major companies. Fence-line data confirms the air exceeds state standards for benzene. See the interactive map, the fence-line readings and the Oct. 27 City Council workshop, all on one page.
