Silver Platinum Silver Platinum It is the mission of the Irwindale Chamber of Commerce to BUILD solid relationships and provide quality services which SUPPORT chamber members and businesses, in order to PROMOTE the economic vitality of our community. Volume 28, Number 8 August 2008 CORNERSTONES of Irwindale Seizing a Golden Opportunity for Valley Commerce By: Adam B. Schiff, D-Pasadena, represents the 29th Congressional District. If you commute in Los Angeles County, you spend too much time behind the wheel - 72 hours a year too much to be exact. Los Angeles is the most Platinum congested region in the nation, and this costs an average commuter $1374 a year more than others spend for time and gasoline. In fact, the average Southern Californian consumes 57 extra gallons of gas a year stuck in traffi c, and with a Silver gallon of gas approaching $5, this is a crushing burden for many families. Silver With millions of frustrated commuters stuck on our freeways, Los Angeles also has the distinction of having the worst year-round pollution in the country. It is an economic and health imperative that we reduce congestion Bronze on our freeways, cut traffi c and commute times, and decrease smog - and investing in mass transit is a big part of the answer. There is no question that the Gold Line Foothill Extension, which will extend the Gold Line from Pasadena to Azusa and beyond to Ontario Airport, will Corporate be a part of our future - but that future should be now.

  • Sun Valley High-Tech Plant Looks to Seperate Treasures from Trash By: Carlos Granda (ABC News) - Friday, April 08, 2016 05:52PM SUN VALLEY, LOS ANGELES (KABC)
    Volume 36, Number 04 April/May 2016 Sun Valley High-Tech Plant Looks to Seperate Treasures From Trash By: Carlos Granda (ABC News) - Friday, April 08, 2016 05:52PM SUN VALLEY, LOS ANGELES (KABC) The phrase “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure” perhaps applies nowhere more so than at a massive high-tech recycling facility in the northern San Fernando Valley. The Athens Services materials recovery facility in Sun Valley is a first of its kind in Los Angeles - on the cutting edge for how effectively it separates reusable materials from trash and diverts waste from landfills. The facility, which opened in October 2014, uses magnets to pull out metals, optical sorting machines that can recognize different types of materials, and human sorters whose eyes spot plenty of items that weren’t meant for the trash pile. Workers at the plant have found just about everything you could imagine - hand grenades, boa constrictors, even a military medal that its owner though he had lost forever. “It was accidentally thrown away and he just thought he had completely lost it,” said Juan Ornelas, a facility supervisor. “It just so happened that I found that box which pertained to him and he was very excited, very happy to get it back.” The goal is to save, reuse and get as close to zero waste as possible. “What we do every morning is we wake up and try to find out how not to take things to a landill,” said Gary Clifford, Athens Services executive vice president.

  • Chapter 2 Alternatives
    Readers’ Guidance: This chapter reflects modifications to the proposed project that occurred subsequent to issuance of the Draft EIR/EIS in April 2004. Changes are shown in strikeout and underline format so that the reader can compare updated information to that shown in the draft environmental document. THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY BLANK Alternatives CHAPTER 2 - ALTERNATIVES Background Transportation improvements for the San Gabriel Valley and adjoining areas have been the subject of study for several decades. Among past efforts was the creation of I-210, the Foothill Freeway, for which planning was initiated in 1955. Implementation of that freeway plan continues today. As early as 1980, transportation planners envisioned the use of the former Atchison Topeka-Santa Fe Railroad’s Pasadena Subdivision alignment as part of a countywide rapid rail network. The first outgrowth of this vision was the initiation of planning for Phase I of the Gold Line in the late 1980’s. Local governments have been keenly interested in how that right-of-way might be best used to improve mobility. In light of the pending acquisition of the former Atchison Topeka-Santa Fe railroad right-of- way (completed in 1992 with Proposition C funds), the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA), in cooperation with the Foothill Cities Transportation Task Force and the San Bernardino Associated Governments prepared a study that resulted in issuance of the Northern San Gabriel-San Bernardino Valley Transportation Corridor Preliminary Planning Study in 1992. In 1993, LACMTA and the Foothill Task Force Cities commissioned an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) to evaluate the impacts of light rail and commuter rail east of the planned Sierra Madre Villa LRT station.
