AES] 1801 7Th Street Sacramento, CA 95811 Crystalgeyser@Analyticalcorp.Com From: marsha yates [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2017 2:27 PM To: Crystal Geyser <[email protected]> Subject: Ryan Sawyer CG Draft EIR To: Ryan Sawyer, AICP Analytical Environmental Services [AES] 1801 7th Street Sacramento, CA 95811 [email protected] RE: Trucking issues/ Traffic & Safety concerns, Sewage issues Mr. Sawyer: Many of the Siskiyou County Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors live within 45 miles. Many of them do not even come up on this side of Mt. Shasta once a year: Their lives are in Yreka. I will feel the repercussions of this project in a way that they will not, because I live, sleep, exercise and breathe on Mt. Shasta within 0.5 miles of this project. The town of Mt. Shasta is surrounded by National Forest, and I live here because of my deep connection to Nature. The silence I hear here, and the fresh mountain air is necessary to my connection with God. I founded Jefferson State Forest Bathing Association to spread the word about the physical and emotional healing nature of the forest, which includes enhanced immune system activity, lower blood pressure, faster healing after operations, better ability to focus, lowering of stress levels. Tourists travel to forests for the healing properties given off by the sounds of water and silence. Many studies have been done to prove the benefits of forest bathing. "The most provocative of these studies conclude that exposure to phytoncides, the airborne, aromatic chemicals/oils emitted by many trees, have a long-lasting impact on people’s immune system markers, boosting natural killer (NK) cells and anticancer proteins by 40 percent." [https://www.spafinder.com/blog/trends/2015-report/forest-bathing/] [.https://cdn.spafinder.com/2015/10/2015-trends- report1.pdf?_ga=1.65317038.1408439616.1488060569]. Our local governments both City and County have not yet begun to recognize the value of forest bathing as part of ecotourism, but tapping into this avenue could be a fantastic boost for our local economy. If the CG plant opens, it must be with carefully planned mitigations to not interfere with other services that can boost our economy. CG's opening without mitigations in place has the potential to damage our environment in ways that damage tourism and our quality of life. As many famous naturalists including John Muir have said, being close to nature IS being close to God. Mt. Shasta symbolizes purity. Unlike Los Angles, people [tourists] come from all over the planet to be here for the purity of our environment. On a daily basis, even in winter, dozens of pilgrims, [ordinary people] are driving or walking up Mt. Shasta in search of answers and directions to apply to their complicated lives. On any day I see license plates from Oregon, Florida, New Mexico, Utah, Montana, and Washington on cars going up and down the mountain. Eco and spiritual tourism cannot be overlooked as the biggest driver of our economy, and the CG project without proper mitigation is a serious threat to it. The following strongly suggested mitigations will help the City and County avoid future liability for negligence or recklessness to visitors, citizens and foreseeable others when the situation is viewed with a wide angle lens. TRUCKING RELATED ISSUES If the CG project cannot be done with proper mitigation which requires teamwork, I recommend choosing the “No Project” option. If CG, the County of Siskiyou and the City of Mt. Shasta cannot work together with the people who live nearest to the project to mitigate their concerns and preserve out quality of life, then the project should not happen. I propose the following mitigations be put in place, and demand that the City and County be required to use their power and influence to make the following be a condition of CG’s operation, immediately revocable without court battles and years of layering and litigation should violations occur: Post large signs defining truck weight limits on city streets, at all exits on the freeway, and just before the plant. A moving violation should be attached, and a $300.00 fine applied when CG trucks are found on city streets south of the plant and outside their posted route north of the entryway to the plant. The fees are fine in addition to the moving violation. Whenever possible, CG should pay the cost of their doing business and not pass the cost to taxpayers: CG should be required to pay for large signs on the freeway and at all identified /possible entrance points. They should be required with the County and City to work cooperatively with Cal Trans. It is inevitable that trucks will miss the left turn into the CG truck entrance. A place near the KOA, or the gas station---Cross Petroleum should be investigated as a place for trucks to turn around without having to enter much of the City. Whichever route is chosen for trucks who fail to turn left, signage must be posted in several places and it must be large and clear. Operating and trucking hours be limited to daylight hours only Monday through Friday, or 7am to 6pm with no weekends. The cost of re-surfacing the exits and freeway entrances needs to be billed to CG when Cal Trans deems the job necessary. SEWAGE ISSUES: As I write this letter, current and severe problems with the City sewer collection system on Mt. Shasta Boulevard is ongoing; including the area west of I-5 because of much snow and rain the past few months. Delay of any project using this system, until the completion of the wastewater treatment plant is ready in 2020 should be an obvious mitigation. CG plans to use this system, which is overtaxed and may be damaged irrevocably if the wet weather conditions continue. This issue needs study and mitigation. If flooding results in our sewage being dumped in the Sacramento River, with CG’s contaminates, it will contaminate the entire water supply of California. Thank you for considering my suggestions. Please read the PDF about forest bathing and ecotouism. Sincerely yours, Marsha Yates 1208 Everett Memorial Highway Mt.Shasta, CA 96067 2015 TRENDS RePORT Top 10 Global Spa and Wellness Trends Forecast Our goal when researching and writing our annual Top 10 Global Spa & Wellness Susie Ellis Trends Forecast is to provide the insight and information companies in the President wellness industry will need to make sound decisions in the year ahead—and help businesses, consumers and the media understand how economic, cultural and Mia Kyricos social shifts will impact not only our industry, but also people’s lives. Chief Brand Officer In the sea of trend lists appearing each new year, we think our unique forecast stands out, taking an intense, research-driven view of what’s trending across the Beth McGroarty global wellness landscape from spa experiences to fitness, beauty, travel, nutrition Research Director and even workplace wellness. And unlike a standard slideshow, our 70-plus page report dives deep into the why, how and where each trend is developing. Spafinder Wellness, Inc. Each year themes emerge, and this year, we discovered that in a world overwhelmed by technology, there is a search for simplicity; as well, a harkening back to lost, healthier ways of living. Read on to discover the boost in meditative “Forest Bathing” experiences and more retreats where trees and silence take luxury “Beyond the Stars.” New master-planned “Wellness Communities & Cities” offer “front porch” values like growing one’s food and knowing your neighbors. And in trends like “My Fitness. My Tribe. My Life,” we see how social fitness will continue to transform the very ways people live, socialize, dress and travel by answering basic human needs for true community in an age of loneliness. In the global quest for the authentic and indigenous, the trends take an unexpected turn, with wellness traditions from Islamic worlds ascending, and food and beauty ingredients from regions like the Middle East and Africa set to grab headlines. And one trend would be unthinkable just years ago: the wave of medical/recreational marijuana legalization across the U.S. (and soon in Uruguay and likely other global regions) means cannabis is getting a “wellness makeover,” with new spa, beauty, travel and yoga connections.

    The Lessons of 1914 for East Asia Today The Lessons of 1914 Ja Ian Chong and for East Asia Today Todd H. Hall Missing the Trees for the Forest A century has passed since the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo set in mo- tion a chain of events that would eventually convulse Europe in war. Possibly no conºict has been the focus of more scholarly attention. The questions of how and why European states came to abandon peaceful coexistence for four years of armed hostilities—ending tens of millions of lives and several im- perial dynasties—have captivated historians and international relations schol- ars alike. Today, Europe appears far removed from the precipice off which it fell a century ago. If anything, most European states currently seem more concerned about the damage potentially caused by ªnancial instruments than instruments of war. On a global scale, the destructive power of contemporary weaponry so dwarfs armaments of that earlier era that some scholars have argued great power war to be obsolete.1 Additionally, the international community has estab- lished international institutions, forums, and consultative mechanisms to chan- nel conºict away from the battleªeld and into the conference room. Yet, not only do the great power relations of that era persist in intriguing scholars; as Steven Miller and Sean Lynn-Jones observe, they also continue to “haunt,” for “they raise troubling doubts about our ability to conduct affairs of state safely in an international environment plagued by a continuing risk of war.”2 In many ways, these doubts have assumed a renewed salience Ja Ian Chong is Assistant Professor of Political Science at the National University of Singapore.

Department of Mass Communication, Federal Polythecnic, Offa, Kwara State, Nigeria; * E-mail of the corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract This study examined the impact of global broadcasting on Africa. The survey research method was applied to collect data with the structured questionnaire as the research instrument. 150 respondents who were purposively selected from Nigeria, South Africa and Egypt were administered the questionnaire online through the surveymonkey.com website. However, 110 respondents properly completed and submitted their questionnaires representing 73 percent response rate. Findings revealed that Cable News Network (CNN) is the preferred global TV news channel of 41 percent of the respondents followed by Al Jezeera (32 percent), China Central Television (18 per cent) and BBC World (9 percent). This is consistent with the 2012 European Media Survey (EMS) report which declared CNN as the undisputed No 1 news brand in Africa. Findings further revealed that global TV news channels carried mostly negative stories about Africa as indicated by 86 percent of the respondents. Furthermore, 60 percent of the respondents indicated that this pattern of coverage not only gave the continent a negative perception but worsened her economic woes.
