“Justin Kray compiled a map of Saint James Parish, showing how the Petro Chemical and other industries were voted in to build around the citizens of Convent and St James Louisiana, while industries proposed in other areas never saw the light of day. This map was used in the Moratorium Law Suit, exposing what Saint James Parish Land Usage Plan has created.”
Gail LeBoeuf
Co-Founder/Co-Director, Inclusive Louisiana
“Justin provided indispensable mapping support to environmental justice organizers standing up to one of the very worst air toxics polluters in the country. A meticulous attention to detail led him to create an excellent work product and his earnest commitment to community goals make him an extremely valued partner.”
