Welcome
to the
National Citizens Cement Kiln Coalition.
A
Project of Downwinders At Risk
The
National Cement Kiln Coalition was founded as a result of
repeated requests from citizens living near cement kilns for
organizing and technical expertise. The organizations in
the coalition have each participated in or are currently
active in a cement kiln struggle.
The
National Citizens Cement Kiln Coalition is a
coalition of grassroots environmental groups from
communities across the United States where cement or
aggregate companies are burning or proposing to burn
hazardous waste in their kilns. In the U.S., close to 70% of
off-site incinerated hazardous waste is burned in these
units.
