    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contacts: Rob Harrison or Susan Newman-Harrison Phone: 909.626.7442 AEROBATIC PERFORMER ROB HARRISON – THE TUMBLING BEAR RARELY UPRIGHT That Rob Harrison would be popping in and out of puffs of white smoke, spinning, diving and twisting through the air in a specially built monoplane, repeatedly contorting his body to resist up to eight times his body weight in pressure, was unthinkable on that first flight. Then, his Dad, a career Naval officer, was at the controls of a Piper Cub, and 6-year-old Rob was scared. Now, nearly six decades later, the Claremont, CA resident, better known in airshow circles as “The Tumbling Bear,” remembers that first flight. Remembers, sure; dwells upon it, no. That’s typical. This is a guy who rarely looks back, always forward. There’s the next show, the next new move, the next generation he hopes to pass along his positive attitudes on experimentation and achievement. Fear is also a distant memory. There’s no place for it now, not with the massive rush of adrenaline that accompanies each 1 Rob Harrison Airshows | 1275 N.

Besides, he says, “Fear is the enemy of safety.” The Tumbling Bear, all 6-foot and 250 pounds of him, has been a marquee airshow attraction since 1993 when he made the decision to embark on a new career after 28 years with the United States Forest Service, where he was responsible for the technical aspects of firefighting airplanes and helicopters.

Of these comments, seven were received from State, regional, or local agencies; two were from community/business organizations; one was from a tribal government; and twelve received from private parties. All comments have been responded to within this document. Comments that address environmental concerns have been specifically addressed. Section 15088 of the State CEQA Guidelines, Evaluation of and Response to Comments, states: a) The lead agency shall evaluate comments on environmental issues received from persons who reviewed the draft EIR and shall prepare a written response. The lead agency shall respond to comments received during the noticed comment period and any extensions and may respond to late comments. b) The written response shall describe the disposition of significant environmental issues raised (e.g., revisions to the proposed project to mitigate anticipated impacts or objections). In particular, major environmental issues raised when the lead agency’s position is at variance with recommendations and objections raised in the comments must be addressed in detail, giving the reasons that specific comments and suggestions were not accepted. There must be good faith, reasoned analysis in response. Conclusory statements unsupported by factual information will not suffice. c) The response to comments may take the form of a revision to the draft EIR or may be a separate section in the final EIR.

  • Chapter 1 Purpose Need
    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 Purpose and Need CHAPTER 1 - PURPOSE AND NEED 1-1 STUDY AREA AND STUDY CORRIDOR A general Study Area was defined to encompass 13 adjoining cities that lie along I-210 and a railroad right-of-way, between Pasadena on the west and Montclair on the east. The study area includes the cities of Pasadena, Arcadia, Monrovia, Duarte, Irwindale, Azusa, Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne, Pomona, and Claremont in Los Angeles County. In San Bernardino County, it includes the cities of Montclair and Upland. For the purposes of environmental analysis, a Study Corridor was defined within the broader Study Area. Figure 1-1 shows the Study Area and Study Corridor. The Study Corridor was defined to be 1,000 feet in width, along either side of the rail alignment. This 2,000-foot width was selected because most environmental impacts that would potentially be generated by the proposed LRT service would occur within this band. The 2,000-foot band is the area of potential impact (API) for all environmental assessment topics except traffic and cultural resources. For traffic, the API was determined on a case-by case basis in consultation with corridor cities to reflect traffic patterns of the cities around proposed stations and at at-grade rail crossings.

    RESOLUTION NUMBER 4376 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PERRIS, CALIFORNIA, SUPPORTING A HIGH SPEED RAIL ALIGNMENT ALONG THE 1-215 WITH STATIONS NEAR MARCH AIR RESERVE BASE AND THE DOWNTOWN SAN BERNARDINO TRANSIT CENTER WHEREAS, the California state government is proposing to build a high-speed rail line stretching from San Diego to Sacramento; and WHEREAS, California’s high-speed train initiative has attracted interest from around the world – and won our state a larger share of federal funding than any similar project in the country -- $2.25 billion; and WHEREAS, the southern section of the high speed rail project will link San Diego to Los Angeles, via the Inland Empire; and WHEREAS, the California High Speed Rail Authority is charged with determining the rail alignment and location of rail stations, and are currently deciding whether to follow an I-15 alignment through Corona or an I-215 alignment through Riverside and San Bernardino; and WHEREAS, the measure of success for the high speed rail project will be ridership and the ability of the project to be self-supporting; and WHEREAS, the Inland Empire, comprised of Riverside and San Bernardino Counties, has a population of over four million people as of 2008, and is the second largest area in Southern California. Since the 2000 Census, the area has experienced a 25.4% growth in population; and WHEREAS, of the staggering growth in the Inland Empire, the overwhelming majority is along the I-215 corridor in Riverside and San Bernardino Counties. The existing population along the I-215 corridor and Coachella Valley is near 2.2 million potential riders; and WHEREAS, residents in Riverside and San Bernardino County cities along the I-215 corridor and in Coachella Valley simply cannot get to an I-15 station easily.
