ELEMENT Noise Excessive noise can disrupt our lives From the continuous thrum of cars and trucks traveling the freeways to the unnerving whine of gasoline powered leaf blowers on an otherwise quiet morning noise can interrupt our conversations ourthoughts and our leisure activities Noise sensitivity varies depending on the time of day its duration and pitch and preferences of individuaJs Despite this variability most residents agree that too much noise or the wrong type of noise irritates LIS and can adversely affect our health In Claremont transportation corridors are the major source of noise The I 0 freeway the 21 0 freeway and the Metrolink and planned Gold Line train tracks all traverse the breadth of the City west to east In addition aircraft operations at Cable Airport and Brackett field and aircraft flights from Ontario International Airport fly over Claremont San Bernardino Metrolink Line The San Bernardino Line is Metrolink s busiest line The line connects downtown Los Angeles Union Station to San Bernardino Over 30 trains slop at Claremont TransCenter on a daily basis Scope of Noise Element In recognition of the adverse health effects associated with excessive noise the California Government Code Section 6li302 f very specifically identifies the types of community noise to be addressed in the General Plan The Noise Element is to identify noise sources from Highways and freeways Primary arterials and major local streets Passenger and freight on line railroad operations and ground rapid transit systems Commercial general aviation heliport and military airport operations aircraft overflights jet engine tests stands and all other ground facilities and maintenance functions related to airport operations Local industrial plants including but not limited to railroad classification yards PAGE 6 39 F-5 CITY OF CLAREMONT GENERAL PLAN Other stationary ground noise sources identified by local agencies as contributing to the community noise environment Noise Metrics Evaluating noise is complex The unit of measurement is an A weighted sound pressure level or dB A which accounts for sound pressure level as well as the pitch of sound and the way the average human ear responds to the pressure and pitch Health considerations associated with excessive noise exposure include hearing loss or damage interference with oral communication and interference with sleep At prolonged exposure at sound levels over 81i dB A a person experiences hearing loss At 60 dB A noise impairs speech intelligence and sound levels over 40 to 41i dB A can disturb sleep To account for the fact that noise during night time hours can be more irksome than day time noise acousticians have developed noise metrics that apply a weighed ambient noise level average over a 24 hour period giving penalties to noise that occurs during the 10 00 P M to 7 00 AM period These metrics are defined as either the Community Equivalent Noise Level CNEL or Day Night Level Ldn Noise contour maps similar to topographic maps that show steepness of terrain can then be developed to identify noise level averages throughout the community Noise Conditions in 2005 Figure 6 6 shows noise exposure contours in the City of Claremont represented by Ldn for baseline year 2001i These contours take into account the following noise sources Traffic Noise Noise from the freeways crossing Claremont exceeds 65 Ldn which is generally considered a threshold noise level for residential use Freeways are under the state s jurisdiction and local jurisdictions encountered difficulties

  • Rob Harrison Press Release
    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.

  • 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.

Photo by Chris O’Neill First flown at Grumman’s newly established plant at Bethpage NY on 29 May 1937, the Goose proved to be an outstanding aircraft in both civil and military use. All models were built with variants of the 450hp P&W R-985 Wasp Junior engines. Goose production totalled 345 aircraft, ending in October 1945 at Bethpage. After WWII, military disposals Gooses were in high demand. After civil certification they were put to work in a wide variety of demanding roles, from hauling freight down the Aleutian island chain in Alaska, carrying holiday makers from Los Angeles area to Catalina Island 26 miles across the Bay in the words of a popular 1950s hit song. Others flew as executive machines, carring captains of industry to remote lakes for hunting and fishing. Numerous maintenance companies offered Goose modifications to improve performance or extend airframe life. Prominent among these was McKinnon Enterprises Inc at Sandy, Oregon, which marketed a range of upgrades, including turboprop engines. McKinnon models are detailed at the end of this listing.

    CABLE GRAM July 2017 www.cableairport.com Volume 50, Number 7 Monthly Newsletter Gone West... On Monday, May 29, 2017, CCB lost Tony Settember, proprietor of Foothill Flying Club. Though Tony had a few health issues, his passing was totally unexpected. Tony provided the means to allow hundreds of folks to fullfill their dream of becoming pilots. He always had a smile on his face and positive words to say. Tony will be missed greatly. A memorial gathering will be held for Tony on Saturday, July 8, 2017 beginning at 5:30 PM. The location of the service will be at Bob and Suzanne Cable's hangar (Hangar Q). Tenants Corner: Jim Byrd Jim Byrd has been a regular fixture around CCB for almost 50 years. Here's what he had to say when we caught up with him: What do you fly? My current airplane is a 2013 Cubcrafters CC1-100 SportsCub, which I have leased to Foothill Flying Club (FFC). I give tailwheel instruction through FFC. How long have you been flying? I started flying at Napa County Airport in May of 1952 How long have you been at Cable? And why did you choose Cable? I came to Cable Airport In April of 1968. I came to sell aircraft for Walter Cable. I sold airplanes at Cable until 1972, when Cessna quit making planes and there was an aircraft recession. I then went to Riverside and flew charter for Al Gemende at Air Charter and I ran the radio shop there at Riverside. I then went in business doing control systems for water companies throughout the west.
