The description of the plan area was developed from previous reports and studies. The Groundwater Management Plan (2005 GWMP) for the Elsinore Area, a portion of the Elsinore Valley Subbasin, was developed by Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (EVMWD) in 2005 (MWH, 2005) and was implemented in 2008 (MWH, 2011). The 2005 GWMP was used as background information for this chapter. Various studies and plans, developed more recently than the 2005 GWMP, were used to develop the description of the plan area. 2.2 Geographic Area The Elsinore Valley Subbasin is located in the Santa Ana River Watershed and underlies the Elsinore Valley in western Riverside County. The location of the Elsinore Valley Subbasin is presented on Figure 2.1. The boundary of the GSP Area, which is coincident with the Elsinore Valley Subbasin boundary is shown on Figure 2.2. The GSP Area is covers approximately 23,600 acres. The boundaries of the Bedford-Coldwater Subbasin, located to the northwest, and the Temecula Valley Subbasin, located to the southeast, are also presented on Figure 2.2. GSPs are under development of the Bedford-Coldwater Subbasin and the Temecula Valley Subbasin. The hydrogeologic conditions of the Elsinore Valley Subbasin are described in detail in Chapter 3. The Elsinore Valley Subbasin is bounded by the Willard fault, a splay of the active Elsinore fault zone, and Santa Ana and Elsinore Mountains on the southwest; the Temecula Valley Groundwater Basin at a low surface drainage divide on the southeast; the Temescal Subbasin of the Upper Santa Ana River Valley Groundwater Basin at a constriction in Temescal Wash on the northwest; and non-water bearing rocks of the Peninsular Ranges along the Glen Ivy fault on the northeast (MWH, 2011). In general, inflows to the subbasin are predominantly from the canyons to the northwest and the San Jacinto River on the northeast. FINAL DRAFT | JUNE 2020 | 2-1 EVMWD | ELSINORE VALLEY SUBBASIN GROUNDWATER SUSTAINABILITY PLAN | CHAPTER 2 The general groundwater flow direction is from the northwest to the southeast, largely a result of groundwater extraction in the southeast region (Elsinore Area) of the Elsinore Valley Subbasin. 2.3 Land Use Jurisdictional Agencies Land use and land management activities can influence water demands, recharge potential, and water quality. This section identifies and describes the agencies with land use management responsibilities with the GSP Area. Detailed discussion of land use planning and policies relevant to groundwater management is included in Section 2.7. The jurisdictional boundaries for agencies that have land use management responsibilities in the GSP Area are shown on Figure 2.3. In general, these agencies can be categorized as follows: • Counties. • Cities. • Federal Lands. • State Lands. • Others. 2.3.1 Counties The GSP Area lies within the western portion of Riverside County. Riverside County has jurisdiction for land use planning for unincorporated areas in the County. The southwest portion of the GSP Area is within unincorporated area in Riverside County. Riverside County also has responsibility for small water systems (between 15 and 199 service connections) and for on-site wastewater treatment systems (OWTSs) through its Department of Environmental Health. Riverside County Department of Environmental Health is also responsible for regulation of the construction, destruction, and maintenance of groundwater wells. 2.3.2 Cities The City of Lake Elsinore, City of Canyon Lake, and the City of Wildomar have land use planning authority within their respective boundaries. The City of Canyon Lake overlaps only a very small portion of the GSP Area along the San Jacinto River. General plan elements relevant to the GSP are discussed Section 2.7. In addition to land use planning, the cities of Lake Elsinore and Wildomar are responsible for stormwater management for their respective jurisdictions. 2.3.3 Federal Lands State and Federal Lands in the GSP Area are presented on Figure 2.4. There are small portions of the GSP Area within United States Forest Service (USFS) Land and Non-Forest Service Land (lands within the Forest Service boundary with undetermined ownership) within the USFS. The USFS Land is the Cleveland National Forest. Resource management efforts in the Cleveland National Forest target fire, ecology, archaeological resources, and recreational resources. 2.3.4 State Lands There are no State Lands in the GSP Area. 2.3.5 Others The Canyon Lake Property Owners Association (POA) has responsibility for stormwater management within the City of Canyon Lake. 2-2 | JUNE 2020 | FINAL DRAFT CHAPTER 2 | ELSINORE VALLEY SUBBASIN GROUNDWATER SUSTAINABILITY PLAN | EVMWD Legend Ca jo n C a Major Rivers n y o n Minor Rivers C S r h e a e y Lakes k k C e r L re e Santa Ana River y C e t r l k eC a Watershed r e e B e k County Boundaries Elsinore Valley Subbasin k k k e GSP Area Boundary e e e r e e r r C C Mill C Creek r e n o e i i e a O n D o v t Ontario e Redlands n Miles S A SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY 0 5 10 n n uc aipa Creek a Y RIVERSIDE COUNTY a S Data Sources: City of Lake Elsinore, S Cal-Atlas, DWR Bulletin 118, National iver R Hydrography Dataset, SAWPA LOS ANGELES COUNTY a k An e e Disclaimer: Features shown in this ORANGE COUNTY a r t C figure are for planning purposes and an S o Banning represent approximate locations. r e Engineering and/or survey accuracy r t is not implied.

  • Inland Empire Fact Sheet SIMPLIFYING FEDERAL STUDENT AID: Grants, Loans, & Repayment Plans
    Inland Empire Fact Sheet SIMPLIFYING FEDERAL STUDENT AID: Grants, Loans, & Repayment Plans November 2016 Join the conversation at #KeepCollegeAff ordable INTRODUCTION The need for a college education has never been greater. Degrees at all levels, from vocational certificates to Master’s degrees, allow individuals to enjoy greater economic and social success. In fact, individuals with a bachelor’s degree will earn over $1.3 million more over their lifetimes than someone with only a high school diploma. For first-generation, low income and minority students, access to college opportunity yields a pathway to increased economic stability and prosperity for future generations. The jobs of the future require college credentials. By 2020, 65% of all jobs across the United States will require some type of college credential. The same holds true for the State of California: 68% of all jobs by 2020 will require future workers to have college credentials. Educational credentials needed For jobs of the future 12% 11% Master's Degree or Higher 24% 23% Bachelor's Degree Some College, Associate's, 32% 33% or Vocational Credential High School Diploma or Less 33% 34% College Credential Required California U.S. Unless immediate action is taken, and current trends persist, California will be short 2.4 million college educated workers to meet workforce demands. To succeed in this new economy, California must ensure that more of its residents are on track to enter college and graduate with a degree or credential. Keeping college affordable is key to meeting California’s economic demands and ensuring opportunity to a better future for the state’s residents.

    SMP 2015-01 / RP 2006-01A2 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT 4.10 UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS 4.10 UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS This Subsection addresses the topics of water service and supply; wastewater collection and treatment; stormwater drainage management; solid waste collection and disposal; and utilities. The analysis contained in this Subsection is based in part on information obtained from the 2010 Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (EVWMD) Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) (EVMWD, 2011a). A complete list of references can be found in EIR Section 7.0, References. 4.10.1 SCOPE OF REVIEW The Nichols Canyon Mine, as discussed in Section 2.0, Environmental Setting, is an existing, ongoing surface mining operation operating pursuant to vested mining rights and an approved reclamation plan (RP 2006-01A1), which was analyzed in a prior MND. Although the City has chosen to prepare an EIR for the Project here, the scope of review addresses those impacts resulting from the Project as described in Section 3.0, Project Description, and not impacts related to existing, approved operations, which form the environmental baseline, as discussed in Section 2.7, Existing Physical Site Conditions. Accordingly, this Subsection analyzes utilities and service systems impacts related to the Project specifically. This Subsection does not analyze utilities and service systems impacts related to existing, approved operations. 4.10.2 EXISTING CONDITIONS A. Water Service and Supply Existing Site and Area Conditions The Nichols Canyon Mine is located within the service area of the EVMWD. At the time the EVMWD’s UWMP was prepared in 2010, the EVMWD estimated that there were approximately 123,375 people within its 96 square mile service area (EVMWD, 2011a, p.
