  • Chapter I – Purpose and Need
    1 Environmental Assessment Kitchen Creek Helitanker Base Project To comply with the National Environmental Policy Act, the Kitchen Creek Helitanker Base Environmental Assessment has been prepared. This Environmental Assessment tiers to the decision for the 2005 Land and Resource Management Plan for the Cleveland National Forest and complies with the standards and guidelines of that plan. To avoid bulk and duplication these documents are incorporated by reference. These documents, as well as information from the project record are available from the Cleveland National Forest Supervisor’s Office, San Diego, California. This Environmental Assessment is not a decision document. Instead, it presents the evidence and analysis necessary to determine whether the consequences of the Proposed Action are “significant” and therefore whether an Environmental Impact Statement is necessary. The Responsible Official (Donn Christiansen, District Ranger, Descanso Ranger District) will determine whether an Environmental Impact Statement is necessary and whether or not to implement one of the alternatives considered in the Environmental Assessment. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination in all its programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, gender, religion, age, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, or marital or family status. (Not all prohibited bases apply to all programs.) Persons with disabilities who require alternative means for communication of program information (Braille, large print, audiotape, etc.) should contact USDA's TARGET Center at (202) 720-2600 (voice and TDD). To file a complaint of discrimination, write USDA, Director, Office of Civil Rights, Room 326-W, Whitten Building, 14th and Independence Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20250-9410 or call (202) 720-5964 (voice and TDD).

    Cleveland National Forest Forest Service News Release Media Contact: Nathan Judy 858-674-2984 [email protected] San Diego River Conservancy Awards Wildfire Early Action Plan Funds to the Cleveland National Forest SAN DIEGO, Calif. — July 30, 2021. The San Diego River Conservancy authorized $3 million of Wildfire Early Action Plan grant funding for wildfire, climate, watershed, and forest health projects to the Cleveland National Forest. In April, Governor Gavin Newsom signed California Senate Bill No. 85, amending the 2020-21 Budget Act to provide additional funding for various wildfire and forest resilience activities. The Conservancy was allocated $12 million through the Wildfire Early Action Plan. The Cleveland National Forest proposed a wildfire resilience and forest health project, including fuel reduction activities on 1,485 acres of public land, 26.5 miles of roads, the construction of a helicopter landing zone, and three 10,000-gallon underground water tanks, in the headwaters of the San Diego and Tijuana River watersheds. On July 8, 2021, the San Diego River Conservancy Board approved a resolution authorizing the grant. Cleveland National Forest Supervisor Scott Tangenberg said, “These funds will allow us to increase the pace and scale of our treatments on the land with our State and local partners, which will help increase public safety and set us up for even more success in the future. We will be strengthening fire resiliency by increasing fuel reduction treatments, including forest health improvements, improving the safety of fire access roads, installing a remote water source and helicopter access for firefighting and rescues, providing more public outreach to support and encourage home hardening in the wildland urban interface, and so much more.” The projects, which all have completed National Environmental Policy Act decisions, could begin as soon as Fall 2021.

    Think Blue Tips You can help protect the Tijuana River Watershed by taking simple steps to prevent pollution: Properly dispose of trash and take large items to a landfill or recycling center. Take household chemicals (paint, motor oil or household cleaners) to a Household Hazardous Waste Collection Center. Watersheds are land areas that funnel water to a common low point – usually a stream, lake, river or out to the ocean. Pick up after your pet and properly dispose of waste in the trash.

The valley is rich in diverse natural resources and is home to dozens of sensitive species, along with more than 340 bird species as part of the Pacific Flyway. The TRVRP also includes opportunities for diverse park activities for a variety of user groups. Recreational activities range from passive activities such as hiking, biking, bird watching, and horseback riding to active activities such as organized sports and community gardens. What is the TRVRP Campground and Nature Education Project?

  • Kumeyaay Cultural Landscapes of Baja California's Tijuana River
    Journal of California and Great Basin Anthropology | Vol. 28, No. 2 (2008) | pp. 127–151 Kumeyaay Cultural Landscapes of Baja California’s Tijuana River Watershed LYNN H. GAMBLE MICHAEL WILKEN-ROBERTSON Department of Anthropology, San Diego State University, 5500 Campanile Drive, San Diego, CA 92182 The cultural landscape of the Kumeyaay living in the Tijuana River Watershed of Baja California embodies the sacred, symbolic, economic, and mythological views of a people who have lived in the region for centuries. Recent research on this region that integrates ethnographic, ethnohistorical, and (to a lesser degree) archaeological information reveals a landscape that is alive and imbued with power, sustenance, and legend—a dynamic construct that reflects both changing Kumeyaay relationships with the land and the group’s continuity with the past. Sacred sites, peaks, transformed rocks, magic boulders, and other geographic features associated with oral traditions populate the landscape. Ecosystems and areas of historic significance represent direct links with generations of ancestors and are still layered with meaning in the minds of descendants. For us the mountains, the rocks, the trees: all this is something important. As my grandfather used to say, this ground is the floor for your feet, the rocks and hills are your walls, the sky is your roof and the sun your light1 [Josefina López Meza, personal communication 2004]. ultural landscapes are an elusive topic All individuals and communities, not just the C for archaeologists, especially those who work in Kumeyaay, give symbolic meanings to the places they regions of the Californias and the Great Basin where inhabit: monumental architecture is rare or non-existent.

  • Continued State of Emergency Declared for Tijuana River Valley
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Lisa Schmidt 619-210-9499 Tuesday, March 16, 2021 [email protected] Continued State of Emergency Declared For Tijuana River Valley SAN DIEGO – Today, the San Diego City Council approved a continued State of Emergency Resolution due to the environmental disaster still occurring within the Tijuana River Valley. The original State of Emergency resolution was first passed in 1993 and the crisis has steadily worsened. In 2019, the Council updated the state of emergency resolution, recognizing the severe environmental disaster caused by the transboundary flows of sewage, solid waste, and toxic sediment in the Tijuana River Valley for several decades. In 2019, as one of her first actions as the District 8 Councilmember, Moreno urged the San Diego City Council to join a State of California lawsuit against the International Boundary and Water Commission (IBWC) for their failure to uphold the Clean Water Act with respect to the transboundary flows of pollution. This lawsuit was in collaboration with the California State Lands Commission, the City of Chula Vista, the City of Imperial Beach, the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board, the Unified Port of San Diego, and the Surfrider Foundation. Last year, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dedicated $300 million, appropriated by the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, directly towards improving the conditions in the Tijuana River Valley. District Eight residents frequently experience a foul smell, and people who have been exposed to the toxic waste have reported skin rashes, headaches and respiratory issues. “As a nearby resident of the Tijuana River Valley, I share the frustration and health concerns raised when the contamination flows run rampant,” said Councilmember Moreno.
