Environmental Protection Agency began trucking hazardous waste 15 miles from Altadena burn zone to Lario Park in Irwindale for sorting and storage on Monday .

Residents of Duarte, Azusa and nearby cities say they had not been notified that waste was arriving by truck at a site near a popular recreation area.

The EPA is working under a 30-day deadline to remove all hazardous waste from the Eaton and Palisades fire burn areas.

EPA has installed liners to prevent toxic materials from leaching into the soil.

Each type of material will be sent to a different permanent facility, EPA says.

Site also has eight air-quality monitors at the perimeter, water trucks that spray three times daily to suppress dust.

"I don't know why we should trust them," one resident says.
