MONTEREY COUNTY, Calif., 17 de marzo de 2025 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- Los bufetes de abogados de Danko Meredith y Fiore Achermann han presentado una demanda en nombre de Brian y Angie Roeder y docenas de residentes del condado de Monterey que sufrieron impactos en la salud y daños a la propiedad como resultado del catastrófico incendio en las instalaciones de Vistra Moss Landing Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) el 16 de enero de 2025. La demanda nombra a Vistra Corp., PG&E y otros como acusados alegando que su sistema de almacenamiento de baterías de iones de litio liberó toxinas peligrosas al medio ambiente y contaminó las comunidades circundantes.

La demanda pide que se prohíba permanentemente a los Demandados el uso de baterías NMC en las instalaciones, que se exija a los Demandados que remedien la contaminación ambiental y que los demandantes expuestos a la contaminación sean compensados por los costos del monitoreo médico de por vida.

Impacto en Brian Roeder y su comunidad

Brian y Angie Roeder, junto con su hijo pequeño, habían completado recientemente las renovaciones en lo que esperaban que fuera su hogar definitivo en Prunedale. Desde el incendio, han estado viviendo en alojamientos para estancias cortas sin saber cuándo será seguro regresar.

El incendio ha causado a Angie, una veterana de la Fuerza Aérea de los Estados Unidos, una dificultad respiratoria persistente. Le ha causado a Brian, un empresario local, dolores de cabeza diarios y dificultades respiratorias. Brian cofundó Never Again Moss Landing, una organización de base comprometida con la prevención de desastres similares.

Brian inició y financió una iniciativa de muestreo de superficie a gran escala dirigida por ciudadanos. El análisis de estas muestras reveló concentraciones elevadas de metales pesados, incluidos níquel, cobalto, manganeso y litio, en regiones a sotavento de la instalación. Los resultados, que se alinean con los hallazgos del estudio Elkhorn Slough de la Universidad Estatal de San José, muestran una contaminación generalizada por metales pesados en los condados de Santa Cruz, Monterey y San Benito.

La demanda: responsabilizar a las partes responsables
La demanda alega que Vistra Corp. y sus filiales, junto con el fabricante de baterías LG Energy Solution y el proveedor de servicios públicos PG&E, son responsables del desastre. Según denuncia:

  • La instalación dependía de baterías de óxido de litio, níquel, manganeso y cobalto (NMC), conocidas por ser altamente susceptibles a la fuga térmica, en lugar de alternativas más seguras.
  • El BESS estaba alojado en un espacio interior confinado, lo que aumentaba significativamente el riesgo de incendio.
  • El sistema de extinción de incendios de la instalación era inadecuado y no pudo contener el evento de fuga térmica.
  • Los Demandados ignoraron las señales de advertencia anteriores, incluidos dos incidentes anteriores relacionados con incendios en su sitio en 2021 y 2022.

Buscando justicia para la comunidad
Danko Meredith y Fiore Achermann se comprometen a garantizar justicia para las víctimas de este desastre ambiental. La demanda busca una compensación por gastos médicos, pérdida de ingresos, daños a la propiedad y los costos continuos de la remediación ambiental.

"Nuestros clientes han construido toda su vida en torno a la belleza y la tranquilidad de sus hogares y su entorno, y ahora están sufriendo sin culpa alguna", dijo Sophia Achermann, socia de Fiore Achermann. "La imprudente mala gestión de las instalaciones de BESS por parte de los Demandados ha puesto en peligro la salud y la seguridad de esta comunidad. Vistra, PG&E y otros ignoraron los riesgos, priorizando las ganancias sobre la seguridad. Ahora, estas familias sufren las consecuencias. Esta demanda busca justicia y rendición de cuentas para garantizar que esto nunca vuelva a suceder ".
