  • FRENCH VALLEY AIRPORT (F70) 37600 Sky Canyon Dr
    FRENCH VALLEY AIRPORT (F70) 37600 Sky Canyon Dr. Murrieta, CA Phone: 951-600-7297 Riverside FAA FSDO Complaint Line: (951) 276-6701 Visit the F70 website for additional information regarding the airport and procedures at www.rcfva.org Federal Aviation Administration FAA Headquarters 800 Independence Ave., SW Washington, DC 20591 www.faa.gov/contact Feedback is always appreciated at [email protected] INTRODUCTION In response to community interest, this booklet was developed to provide an overview of Airport operations and the complaint process. It will explain how and what aircraft operate in vicinity of F70, their interaction with our neighbors, and how complaints are handled. (F70 is the identifier selected by Federal Aviation Administration for the French Valley Airport. All airports have a three- character identifier; local examples are ONT for Ontario International Airport and LAX for Los Angeles Airport.) AIRPORT HISTORY In the late 1970s, discussion and planning began on relocating the existing Rancho California Airport due, in part, to safety deficiencies. In addition, the airport was leased to the County with the owner not wanting to renew the lease. An evaluation leading to the identification and selection of potential new sites was undertaken in June 1983. In June 1985 the Riverside County Board of Supervisors approved a resolution designating the French Valley site as the replacement site for the existing Rancho California Airport. The Federal Aviation Administration approved the French Valley Airport Layout plan in 1985 and funded four grants for land acquisition. Initial construction of French Valley Airport began in October 1987 and was completed in April 1989.

For the record, infrastructure is the large-scale public systems, services, and facilities of a region that are necessary to support economic activity and quality of life . The systems that are readily used and noticed by the general public are the highway and public transportation systems, airports, school facilities, and community parks . Other systems of infrastructure that are not readily seen by the public are the underground water, sewer, and utility pipes, flood control systems that protect us from storm water runoff, and solid waste facilities . These are the “unsung heroes” of infrastructure, and are only a concern when they do not work . For example, turning on the faucet and nothing coming out, flushing the toilet and having it back-up, or putting out your trash, and no one picks it up .

  • TCWG PM Hot Spot Form RIV031215
    A.1 PM Conformity Hot Spot Analysis Project Summary Form for Interagency Consultation The purpose of this form is to provide sufficient information to allow the Transportation Conformity Working Group (TCWG) to determine if a project requires a project-level PM hot spot analysis pursuant to Federal Conformity Regulations. The form is not required under the following circumstances: 1. The project sponsor determines that a project-level PM hot spot analysis is required or otherwise elects to perform the analysis; or 2. The project does not require a project-level PM hot spot analysis since it: a. Is exempt pursuant to 40 CFR 93.126; or b. Is a traffic signal synchronization project under 40 CFR 93.128; or c. Uses no Federal funds AND requires no Federal approval; or d. Is located in a Federal PM attainment area (note: PM10 and PM2.5 areas differ). Projects other than those listed above may or may not need a project-level PM hot spot analysis depending on whether it is considered a "Project of Air Quality Concern" (POAQC), and should be brought before the TCWG for a determination. It is the responsibility of the project sponsor to ensure that the form is filled out completely and provides a sufficient level of detail for the TCWG to make an informed decision on whether or not a project requires a project-level PM hot spot analysis. For example, the TCWG will be reviewing the effects of the project, and thus part of the required information includes build/no build traffic data. It is also the responsibility of the project sponsor to ensure a representative is available to discuss the project at the TCWG meeting if necessary.

  • Traffic and Circulation
    General Plan Update Section 5.4 Traffic and Circulation This section addresses the City of Murrieta’s existing traffic conditions, the impacts of future traffic growth, planned physical improvements, and additional improvements to accommodate growth. This section is based upon the Traffic Impact Analysis (Draft January 2011, Final September 2011), prepared by Iteris, and included as Appendix C. The City of Murrieta is located in southeastern Riverside County, and is comprised of 26,852 acres (41.96 square miles) of which 21,511 acres (33.61 square miles) is located within the City Limits and 5,341 acres (8.34 square miles) is located within the City’s Sphere of Influence. Surrounding cities include Menifee to the north, Temecula to the south and east, Wildomar to the west, and unincorporated Riverside County to the north, south, and east. The San Diego County border is just south of Temecula, and Orange County lies on the other side of the Santa Ana Mountains to the west. Regional access to the City is provided by the Interstates 15 (I-15), the Corona Freeway, and 215 (I-215), the Escondido Freeway. Much of the transportation system in the City of Murrieta is owned and controlled by the City, such as the local, collector and arterial street system, and most of the traffic signals. Some of the facilities, however, are owned and controlled by other agencies, including Caltrans and the County of Riverside, or shared with other jurisdictions, such as the Cities of Temecula and Wildomar. Similarly, while much of the funding for the transportation system is local, significant funds for improvement and maintenance also come from other sources including State, Federal and County-level funding sources.
