  • 3.7 Biological Resources
    3.7 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This section identifies major plant and animal resources within the City’s Planning Area and assesses the potential impacts of the proposed General Plan on biological resources with the understanding that certain resources, especially wildlife, are transitory and may potentially be present in a wide variety of areas regardless of previous records of observation. The City’s Planning Area consists of its incorporated boundaries and adopted Sphere of Influence (SOI). The County’s Planning Area consists of unincorporated land within the One Valley One Vision (OVOV) Planning Area boundaries that is located outside the City’s boundaries and the adopted SOI. The City and the County Planning Areas together comprise the OVOV Planning Area. A substantial portion of the area within the City has been developed. Species within the remaining natural areas are adapted to the Mediterranean climate of the region, in that they thrive in the cool, wet winters, and dry, hot summers typical of the area. Within the City boundaries, these areas include the Santa Clara River through the City; and portions of San Francisquito Canyon, Sand Canyon, Whitney Canyon, and Placerita Canyon. The major natural features of the City’s adopted SOI include the Liebre Mountains south of the National Forest boundary, including Cruzan Mesa and portions of Tick Canyon, Mint Canyon, Bouquet Canyon and San Francisquito Canyon; and the San Gabriel Mountains north of the National Forest boundary, including portions of Sand Canyon and

  • The Hollywood Cinema Industry's Coming of Digital Age: The
    The Hollywood Cinema Industry’s Coming of Digital Age: the Digitisation of Visual Effects, 1977-1999 Volume I Rama Venkatasawmy BA (Hons) Murdoch This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University 2010 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. -------------------------------- Rama Venkatasawmy Abstract By 1902, Georges Méliès’s Le Voyage Dans La Lune had already articulated a pivotal function for visual effects or VFX in the cinema. It enabled the visual realisation of concepts and ideas that would otherwise have been, in practical and logistical terms, too risky, expensive or plain impossible to capture, re-present and reproduce on film according to so-called “conventional” motion-picture recording techniques and devices. Since then, VFX – in conjunction with their respective techno-visual means of re-production – have gradually become utterly indispensable to the array of practices, techniques and tools commonly used in filmmaking as such. For the Hollywood cinema industry, comprehensive VFX applications have not only motivated the expansion of commercial filmmaking praxis. They have also influenced the evolution of viewing pleasures and spectatorship experiences. Following the digitisation of their associated technologies, VFX have been responsible for multiplying the strategies of re-presentation and story-telling as well as extending the range of stories that can potentially be told on screen. By the same token, the visual standards of the Hollywood film’s production and exhibition have been growing in sophistication.

  • The Soledad Canyon High Desert, California Public Lands Conservation and Management Act of 2009
    THE SOLEDAD CANYON HIGH DESERT, CALIFORNIA PUBLIC LANDS CONSERVATION AND MANAGEMENT ACT OF 2009 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What is H.R. 4332, the Soledad Canyon High Desert, California Public Lands Conservation and Management Act of 2009? The Soledad Canyon High Desert, California Public Lands Conservation and Management Act of 2009 is legislation introduced by Rep. Howard P. “Buck” McKeon, R‐CA 25. The legislation would end a nearly decade‐long dispute between the City of Santa Clarita and CEMEX USA (CEMEX) over a sand and gravel mine the company proposed to operate in Soledad Canyon. In 1990, CEMEX was awarded two ten‐year consecutive contracts to extract 56 million tons of sand and gravel from Soledad Canyon over a period of 20 years by the United States Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the City of Santa Clarita objected to the plan. Santa Clarita and CEMEX declared a truce in February 2007 and announced they would seek a legislative solution to the dispute. This legislation is the result of that agreement. How does the legislation resolve the dispute between the City of Santa Clarita and CEMEX? H.R. 4332 would require the BLM to cancel CEMEX’s right to mine at the contract site, and would ensure that CEMEX is fairly compensated for its loss arising from such cancellation. As compensation for the cancellation of its Soledad Canyon contracts, the legislation would provide a means for CEMEX to recover the fair market value of its contracts. Once H.R. 4332 is signed into law, the Secretary of the Interior would offer for sale federal land near Victorville, CA, which is currently on the BLM’s “disposal list.” The proceeds from the land sales would be deposited into a special account in the United States Treasury.
