A fire at a large cold-storage warehouse in Los Angeles on June 17 has resulted in an estimated 85 million pounds (39 million kg) of rotting food, including beef, pork, poultry, and seafood. Nearly two months later, the clean-up process is still underway, with residents of Boyle Heights expressing frustration over the lingering odor and potential health risks. The company responsible for operating the warehouse, Lineage Logistics, has stated that 80% of the food waste has been removed as of August 1, but city officials have criticized their response as falling short. Residents have reported seeing flies and rats in the area, and a city-commissioned inspection report found that waste and high temperatures at the warehouse could speed up the breeding of flies capable of infecting wounds. The fire has had a negative impact on local businesses, with one coffee stand owner stating that demand hasn't been the same since reopening due to the persistent smell and swarms of flies. The city has issued public health and safety violation notices to Lineage and has brought mobile health clinics and air purifiers to the neighborhood. The company has been given a deadline of August 13 to complete the cleanup, which is estimated to cost between $80 million to $100 million. Officials have also halted plans to rebuild the warehouse until the health and safety of the community is protected.
