It’s also an important resting and feeding area for thousands of migrating birds which use the Pacific flyway, making it a popular destination for birdwatching, hunting, hiking and canoeing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Hollin Kretzmann, Center for Biological Diversity\"]'We shouldn't be in the business of propping up new fossil fuel infrastructure and exploration projects.

If approved, the project would create 100 feet of new road and a one-acre drilling pad built on the site of an abandoned, sealed well. If new drilling finds the well to be productive, the site would expand to include storage tanks and a mile and a half of new gas pipeline to connect with an existing pipeline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a Feb. 26 \u003ca href=\"https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/programs/climate_law_institute/pdfs/21-02-26-Hunters-Point-Gas-Drilling-Project-2011-00065N.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">letter\u003c/a> opposing the project sent to the Army Corps of Engineers on behalf of a dozen environmental groups — including the Sierra Club and San Francisco Baykeeper — Center for Biological Diversity Senior Attorney Hollin Kretzmann detailed the potential environmental damage the project could inflict on the marsh's delicate habitat and on surrounding communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The letter notes the permit application lacks details of the location of the road, and which chemicals might be used for drilling and maintenance of the well. It also calls into question the permit’s assertion that drilling at an existing well site reduces impact to the marsh and contamination risks from other nearby existing wells:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>When a new well is drilled...it can affect existing wells around it in ways ranging from soil and water contamination, to the [uncontrolled release] of gas that has migrated to the surface. ... Older and unused wells can create pathways for water contamination...especially those that were constructed decades ago with outdated technologies and standards.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Environmental groups are concerned that the newly proposed project could pave the way for more abandoned wells to come back online, potentially leading to accidents. There are many abandoned wells in the area, and new gas harvesting technology has made production more efficient in locations that were previously abandoned as unprofitable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Twenty years ago there was enthusiasm in the oil and gas industry around potential reserves beneath Suisun Marsh and other locations in Solano County. In 2001, one natural gas executive said the area had “some of the most exciting opportunities in Northern California.” But renewable energy technology has also come a long way since then — and the negative environmental impacts of fossil fuels and climate change \u003ca href=\"https://www.ppic.org/publication/ppic-statewide-survey-californians-and-the-environment-july-2020/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">are now a major concern for a majority of Californians\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Suisun Marsh has been damaged by fossil fuel-related accidents before.

A \u003ca href=\"/Users/awoelfle/Desktop/Army%20corps%20public%20notice%20suisun%20bay%20drilling.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">public notice\u003c/a> on the project issued by the Army Corps stated that the project does not qualify for an automatic environmental impact study.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sahrye Cohen, the regulatory chief with the North Bay branch of the Army Corps, said in an interview the agency is still determining whether an environmental impact study will be necessary and that the Corps will require Sunset Exploration to submit alternative plans that would mean less impact on the marsh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Can natural gas exploration be done in the Suisun Marsh in an area that has less impact on wetlands?\" Cohen indicated the Corps would ask Sunset Exploration. \"Could you request that fill be half an acre instead of an acre? Could you situate it partially on an area that has already been filled in? What are your other options here that don't involve putting fill in wetlands?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Clean Water Act requires the Army Corps to permit the least environmentally damaging plan, but Cohen said when it comes to surrounding communities, they usually fall outside the scope of the Corps' jurisdiction, which only covers actions that occur on waterways. Cohen said it usually doesn’t include a city 5 miles away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It all starts from, ‘What are they putting in the wetlands?’ then, ‘What are they proposing that adds onto that?'\" she said. \"There's executive orders about environmental justice that we are going to look at for our analysis. But there is a scope limitation, so we don't know how far that extends yet.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cohen was referencing potentially stricter executive orders around environmental justice forthcoming from the Biden administration, but there are also several court cases that limit the scope of the Corps' jurisdiction. The Corps has received a handful of similar requests for exploratory drilling in and around the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta in the last decade, and Cohen said most of them get approved after a discussion of how to reduce damage to wetlands and endangered species.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I've been here for about 12 years,\" she said. \"I don't know that we have denied a natural gas well exploratory permit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cohen added that the Corps' job is to decide, in consultation with agencies like the California Water Quality Control Board and the Department of Fish and Wildlife, whether a project is legally permissible. If it is legal, the permit is approved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supervisor Brown said that isn’t a good enough reason to \"destroy\" a wetland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just because it’s legal doesn’t mean it's right. I hope the Army Corps will take that into consideration and reject this project.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The permit review process will take at least four months. Supervisor Brown, Hollin Kretzmann and other environmental groups said they will do whatever they can to fight the project every step of the way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sunset Exploration did not return requests for comment on this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's David Marks contributed to this story.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

A \u003ca href=\"/Users/awoelfle/Desktop/Army%20corps%20public%20notice%20suisun%20bay%20drilling.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">public notice\u003c/a> on the project issued by the Army Corps stated that the project does not qualify for an automatic environmental impact study.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sahrye Cohen, the regulatory chief with the North Bay branch of the Army Corps, said in an interview the agency is still determining whether an environmental impact study will be necessary and that the Corps will require Sunset Exploration to submit alternative plans that would mean less impact on the marsh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Can natural gas exploration be done in the Suisun Marsh in an area that has less impact on wetlands?\" Cohen indicated the Corps would ask Sunset Exploration. \"Could you request that fill be half an acre instead of an acre? Could you situate it partially on an area that has already been filled in? What are your other options here that don't involve putting fill in wetlands?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Clean Water Act requires the Army Corps to permit the least environmentally damaging plan, but Cohen said when it comes to surrounding communities, they usually fall outside the scope of the Corps' jurisdiction, which only covers actions that occur on waterways. Cohen said it usually doesn’t include a city 5 miles away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It all starts from, ‘What are they putting in the wetlands?’ then, ‘What are they proposing that adds onto that?'\" she said. \"There's executive orders about environmental justice that we are going to look at for our analysis. But there is a scope limitation, so we don't know how far that extends yet.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cohen was referencing potentially stricter executive orders around environmental justice forthcoming from the Biden administration, but there are also several court cases that limit the scope of the Corps' jurisdiction. The Corps has received a handful of similar requests for exploratory drilling in and around the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta in the last decade, and Cohen said most of them get approved after a discussion of how to reduce damage to wetlands and endangered species.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I've been here for about 12 years,\" she said. \"I don't know that we have denied a natural gas well exploratory permit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cohen added that the Corps' job is to decide, in consultation with agencies like the California Water Quality Control Board and the Department of Fish and Wildlife, whether a project is legally permissible. If it is legal, the permit is approved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supervisor Brown said that isn’t a good enough reason to \"destroy\" a wetland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just because it’s legal doesn’t mean it's right. I hope the Army Corps will take that into consideration and reject this project.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The permit review process will take at least four months. Supervisor Brown, Hollin Kretzmann and other environmental groups said they will do whatever they can to fight the project every step of the way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sunset Exploration did not return requests for comment on this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's David Marks contributed to this story.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Though patients do have rights within these frameworks, the ability to protect these rights may be diminished by the altered mental state the patient is experiencing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One solution that has gained attention is the practice of integrating social workers into police work involving mental health care. Boykin rejects this solution, pointing out that the social workers involved are sometimes indistinguishable from police officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These social worker models need to be divorced from police and policing,\" Boykin said, \"here in Sacramento we have a social worker that wears a police uniform that literally has the word social worker on the back. Someone who is not experiencing our shared reality can’t tell the difference between one person in a bulletproof vest and another.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boykin said social work is inherently tied to law enforcement, and that deeper transformation is needed to rebuild trust with communities of color.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Understand that these systems were built for white land-owning males, and what we’re gonna have to do is deconstruct them and rebuild them absent from the roots that are steeped in white supremacy,\" Boykin said.

Gong says defunding those institutions was co-opted by politicians during a period of fiscal crisis, and that when the money wasn’t reinvested in alternatives, city streets and jails began to be filled by people with psychiatric disabilities, which resulted in public backlash and calls to \"bring back the asylum.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to prepare for problems with new systems we build, especially in a bad economy like this, and we have to have real answers if people do demand a return to harsh enforcement,\" Gong said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It seems that people are looking for real answers and solutions: More than 4,000 people registered for the discussion via Zoom, and the recording of the panel has since been viewed thousands of times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Oakland, the city council has responded to calls to defund the police by passing a revised city \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandca.gov/news/2020/oaklands-mid-cycle-budget-cuts-14-3-million-from-police-budget-invests-additional-50-million-to-address-racial-disparities\">budget in June\u003c/a>, which allocates $1.85 million to create a Mobile Assistance Community Responders of Oakland, or MACRO, which is intended to remove police from some 911 calls related to mental health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But APTP has criticized the program’s white leadership as out of touch, and said MACRO was developed without adequate community input. Boykin says practical community solutions are what will make a difference in the future of mental healthcare, and that those solutions start with small steps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Talk to your neighbors, say hi, get to know them.
