Nearly eight years after the disastrous Aliso Canyon gas leak sprung up in the hills above Porter Ranch, sending thousands of families fleeing, a team of UCLA researchers has announced details of a planned study into the effects of the leak on the health of residents near the underground natural gas storage facility owned by SoCalGas. A team of about 50 researchers will work on the study, examining health impacts on pregnant women, children and adults during and after the disastrous 2015 gas leak.
