  • Archaeological Survey Report
    ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY REPORT Interstate 10 Corridor Project San Bernardino and Los Angeles Counties 07-LA-10 PM 44.9/48.3 08-SBD-10 PM 0.0/R37.0 EA 0C2500 EFIS ID 0800000040 April 2015 STATE OF CALIFORNIA Department of Transportation SUMMARY OF FINDINGS The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), in conjunction with San Bernardino Associated Governments (SANBAG), proposes to improve the Interstate 10 (I-10) corridor. The proposed I-10 Corridor Project (Project) consists of adding lane(s) and providing improvements along all or a portion of the existing 33-mile-long stretch of I-10 from approximately 2 miles west of the Los Angeles/San Bernardino county line in the City of Pomona to Ford Street in the City of Redlands (see Figures 1 and 2 in Exhibit 1 of the Historic Property Survey Report [HPSR] prepared for this Project). The Project considers one “no build” alternative and two “build” alternatives to address existing and future projected traffic demands. The archaeological survey and identification effort included cultural resource records and literature searches, Native American consultation, and reconnaissance and intensive pedestrian (Phase I) surveys of the Area of Direct Impact (ADI). Record searches indicated that nine pending and four known historical archaeological sites were potentially within the Project Area of Potential Effects (APE). Pending archaeological resources that have not been formally recorded onto Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) 523 forms include an unnamed road (P1074-61H), Tenney Ditch (P1063-49H), Marias Araminta Ditch (P1063-52H), Hunt and Cooley Ditch (P1074-84H), Camp Carlton Ditch (P1074-85H), Jansen Ditch (P1074-86H), Rancheria Ditch (P1074-88H), Old Meeks and Daley Ditch (P1074-104H), and Sunnyside and South Fork Ditches (PSBR-21-H).

    Remapping Inland Southern California: Global Commodity Distribution, Land Speculation, and Politics in the Inland Empire by Juan David De Lara A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geography in the GRADUATE DIVISION of the UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY Committee in charge: Richard Walker, Chair Michael Johns David Montejano Fall 2009 The dissertation of Juan David De Lara, titled Remapping Inland Southern California: Global Commodity Distribution, Land Speculation, and Politics in the Inland Empire, is approved: Chair Date Date Date University of California, Berkeley Remapping Inland Southern California: Global Commodity Distribution, Land Speculation, and Politics in the Inland Empire Copyright 2009 by Juan David De Lara 1 Abstract Remapping Inland Southern California: Global Commodity Distribution, Land Speculation, and Politics in the Inland Empire by Juan David De Lara Doctor of Philosophy in Geography University of California, Berkeley Richard Walker, Chair Inland Southern California's development is deeply embedded in the territorial restruc- turing of profit. Cyclical waves of capital investment into local land markets has produced a regional landscape of commodity transport, housing, and labor that links the region's growth to multiple economic scales. My research is an attempt to understand how global shifts in production and an increasing dominance of finance capital have produced new landscapes of accumulation in Riverside and San Bernardino counties - also known as the Inland Empire. Most studies on globalization focus on the shifting geographies of industrial production, financial networks, information technologies, and the emergence of world cities that function as control centers. Links between commodity distribution and urbanization is virtually ignored in the globalization literature.
