Sr 710 North Study: Historic Property Survey Report ATTACHMENT C: HISTORICAL RESOURCES EVALUATION REPORT Historical Resources Evaluation Report December 2014 State Route 710 North Study SUMMARY OF FINDINGS The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), in cooperation with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority, proposes transportation improvements to improve mobility and relieve congestion in the area bounded by State Route 2 (SR 2) and Interstates 5, 10, 210, and 605 (I-5, I-10, I-210, and I-605, respectively) in east/northeast Los Angeles and the western San Gabriel Valley (Historic Property Survey Report [HPSR], Attachment A, Maps 1–3). To accomplish this, four build alternatives are proposed in addition to the No Build alternative. These include the Transportation System Management/ Transportation Demand Management (TSM/TDM) Alternative, Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Alternative; Light Rail Transit (LRT) Alternative; and Freeway Tunnel Alternative. The proposed action will include, but not be limited to, acquisition of right-of-way; temporary construction and permanent easements; construction of elevated roadways/railways, cut and cover tunnels, bored tunnels, sound walls, retaining walls, concrete barriers, drainage facilities, curbs, and gutters; installation of paving; relocation of utilities; and grading (HPSR, Attachment A, Maps 3A, 3B, and 3C). This Historical Resources Evaluation Report (HRER) was prepared in compliance with the Caltrans Programmatic Agreement among the Federal Highway Administration, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, the California State Historic Preservation Officer, and the California Department of Transportation Regarding Compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, as it Pertains to the Administration of the Federal-Aid Highway Program in California executed January 1, 2004, and amendments (2014 Section 106 PA). Cultural resources were identified and evaluated for the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) as required by the 2014 Section 106 PA, using the National Register of Historic Places eligibility criteria found in 36 Code of Federal Regulations Part 800 and the regulations implementing Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended (NHPA). These evaluations comply with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requirements and evaluates identified cultural resources in accordance with California Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 15064.5(a)(2)–(3) using the criteria outlined in PRC Section 5024.1. The document was also prepared in compliance with PRC 5024 for state-owned historical resources. Caltrans is the lead agency under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and CEQA. Archaeological field surveys of the areas of anticipated ground-disturbing activities within the project’s direct Area of Potential Effects (APE) were conducted on various days between September 9 and October 25, 2013. As a result of these surveys, no archaeological resources were identified in the project APE. Architectural surveys of the APE, which includes approximately 2,200 properties, were conducted for the entire APE (direct and indirect) on multiple days from August 26 through October 11, 2013, with follow-up surveys conducted on June 12 and 13, July 25, August 7 and 30, and November 8, 2014. As a result of these surveys, there are a total of 68 properties in the project APE that are either listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register. This includes 43 properties previously listed in or determined eligible for listing in the National Register (including 11 historic districts), 22 properties that were determined eligible for i Historical Resources Evaluation Report December 2014 State Route 710 North Study listing in the National Register as a result of this study (including 2 historic districts and 1 park), and 3 properties (Route 66, 318 Fairview Avenue, and 2020 Fremont Avenue) that are being considered eligible for listing in the National Register for purposes of this study only. In addition to these 68 National Register properties, there are 9 properties (including 1 historic district) that are “historical resources” pursuant to CEQA, but are not eligible for listing in the National Register. As stated in the paragraph above, pursuant to the 2014 Section 106 PA, Stipulation VIII.C.4, Caltrans is considering the various portions of Route 66 within the APE as eligible for the National Register for purposes of this project only. Fifteen bridges were also identified in the APE (HPSR, Attachment B). Of these, the Fair Oaks Overcrossing Bridge #53 0440 is eligible for listing in the National Register as a contributing element of the Arroyo Seco Parkway Historic District. Pursuant to PRC 5024, all the State-owned historical resources within the APE were previously evaluated and the California State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) has concurred with those conclusions. For CEQA purposes, in compliance with PRC 15064.5(a), Caltrans, as the Lead Agency under CEQA, has determined that the 68 resources listed in Table 5 are historical resources pursuant to CEQA. Caltrans, however, is providing this information to the SHPO as a courtesy only and is not seeking the SHPO’s comments. All other historic-period resources within the APE have been determined exempt from further evaluation per the 2014 Section 106 PA. ii Historical Resources Evaluation Report December 2014 State Route 710 North Study TABLE OF CONTENTS SUMMARY OF FINDINGS ...................................................................................................... i TABLE OF CONTENTS ......................................................................................................... iii I.

Cultivation, environment, and faithful caring all have an influence on the final result. Throughout history burgeoning artists have instinctively, and certainly out of financial consideration, opted to live in close communities with fellow artists. In such settings, artists create their own subcultures as they spend their days among like-minded friends who speak their language—a form of communication that is based on their specific brand of artistic discipline and philosophy. Fellowship among artists becomes an essential source of sustaining encouragement in this lifestyle which can be sporadic in work and income. At times, an artist may travail obliviously over many days and weeks with only John Bond Francisco (1863–1931) occasional breaks for quick meals and Out of the Dust, c. 1918 minimal sleep.

Yet within dominant urban design paradigms, many of these per- ceptions never make it into the public meeting, nor onto the abstract maps and renderings that planners and - designers frequently employ. This thesis seeks to show that cinematic practice, or the production of subjec tive, immersive film narratives, can incorporate highly differentiated perceptions into the design process.

McIntire’s “crusade” against the Federal Communications Commission and the Fairness Doctrine brought national attention to the doctrine. This attention influenced the FCC, and in 1987, the Commission repealed this regulatory policy. WXUR is the only radio or television station in American history to be denied license renewal by the FCC as a direct result of Fairness Doctrine violations. This dissertation argues that McIntire and WXUR are underappreciated factors that contributed to the demise of the doctrine. Introduced in 1959 when Congress amended the 1934 Communications Act, the doctrine required radio and television stations to meet two requirements: (1) devote a reasonable percentage of broadcast time to discussions of issues of public importance within the community the licensee served, and (2) design and provide programs so that the public had a reasonable opportunity to hear different and opposing views and arguments on the public issues of interest within that community.

I have always enjoyed reading of the experiences of California pioneers, who came here either before or after I did. The thought came to me, that possibly other people would enjoy an account of the experiences of my seventy years in the State, during which I participated in the occurrences of a very interesting period of the State's development.

  • GC 1323 Historic Sites Surveys Repository
    GC 1323 Historic Sites Surveys Repository: Seaver Center for Western History Research, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Span Dates: 1974-1996, bulk 1974-1978 Conditions Governing Use: Permission to publish, quote or reproduce must be secured from the repository and the copyright holder Conditions Governing Access: Research is by appointment only Source: Surveys were compiled by Tom Sitton, former Head of History Department, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Background: In 1973, the History Department of the Natural History Museum was selected to conduct surveys of Los Angeles County historic sites as part of a statewide project funded through the National Preservation Act of 1966. Tom Sitton was appointed project facilitator in 1974 and worked with various historical societies to complete survey forms. From 1976 to 1977, the museum project operated through a grant awarded by the state Office of Historic Preservation, which allowed the hiring of three graduate students for the completion of 500 surveys, taking site photographs, as well as to help write eighteen nominations for the National Register of Historic Places (three of which were historic districts). The project concluded in 1978. Preferred Citation: Historic Sites Surveys, Seaver Center for Western History Research, Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Special Formats: Photographs Scope and Content: The Los Angeles County historic site surveys were conducted from 1974 through 1978. Compilation of data for historic sites continued beyond 1978 until approximately 1996, by way of Sitton's efforts to add application sheets prepared for National Register of Historic Places nominations. These application forms provide a breadth of information to supplement the data found on the original survey forms.
