They probably just forgot to put the Prop 65 warning label on it: Warning, this facility contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

This part of CA has lousy air. It has always had lousy air. The airport really isn't the problem. It's the pollution from all the big rigs that are the problem. All of those truck have to drive 90 miles from the LA ports to San Bernardino in traffic moving about 10 mph much of the time. The FAA approved the project because there really wasn't an environmental issue with the airport, per se. The State is saying, wait, you have to look at the whole scope of the project. Both are right, and both are wrong.
Sharon, your analysis sounds right. It's probably all the trucks going in to service the Amazon hub, more so than the planes that is the concern. I think, since the airport is new, they are trying to leverage the permission to build to get more clean truck concessions, clean diesel, EV charging, etc.etc.,
