CBX Case Study
C A SE S TUDY | CROSS BORDER XPRESS (CBX) Maximizing Airport Operational Efficiency The Challenge The international border between the United States and Mexico is the most frequently crossed border in the world. In total, there are 48 U.S.-Mexico border crossings with 330 ports of entry. Cross Border Xpress (CBX) is a terminal located in San Diego, California, with a 390-foot pedestrian bridge connecting it to the Tijuana International Airport in Tijuana, Mexico. It provides easy and direct access for ticketed passengers from the U.S. side to clear Mexican immigration and catch their flight at the Tijuana airport, and for passengers arriving in Tijuana to cross into U.S. Cross Border Express at a Glance customs and exit on the U.S. side.

This work estimated dust emission flux (E) between 1979 and 2014 from two desert regions in the Baja California Peninsula (BCP) using a modified dust parameterization scheme. Subsequently, we evaluated the processes controlling the variability of E at intra- and interannual scales. During the period 1979–2014 peak E were generally recorded in summer (San Felipe) and spring (Vizcaino), and the lowest emissions occurred in autumn (San Felipe) and winter (Vizcaíno). -
Air Quality Planning and Transportation Conformity
Appendix C: Air Quality Planning and Transportation Conformity Draft for Public Review May 2021 Appendix C: Air Quality Planning and Transportation Conformity Executive Summary The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), as the region’s Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), must make a transportation air quality conformity determination for regional transportation plans (RTPs) and regional transportation improvement programs (RTIPs). The purpose of transportation conformity is to ensure that federally funded or approved activities are consistent with the State Implementation Plan (SIP). This ensures that no transportation activities will cause or contribute to new air quality violations, worsen existing violations, or delay the attainment of any relevant National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). This report documents a demonstration of conformity for the 2008 and 2015 Ozone NAAQS for San Diego Forward: The 2021 Regional Plan (2021 Regional Plan) and the 2021 Regional Transportation Improvement Program (2021 RTIP), as amended. The 2021 Regional Plan serves as the region’s Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). Background The federal Clean Air Act (CAA), which was last amended in 1990, requires the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) to set NAAQS for pollutants considered harmful to public health and the environment. California has adopted state air quality standards that are more stringent than the NAAQS.1 Areas with levels that violate the standard for specified pollutants are designated as nonattainment areas. The U.S. EPA requires that each state containing nonattainment areas develop and adopt plans to attain the NAAQS by a specified attainment deadline. These attainment plans are called SIPs. The San Diego County Air Pollution Control District (SDAPCD), in collaboration with California Air Resources Board (CARB), prepares the San Diego portion of the California SIP. -

Designing and Establishing Conservation Areas in the Baja California-Southern California Border Region
DRAFT • NOT FOR QUOTATION Designing and Establishing Conservation Areas in the Baja California-Southern California Border Region Michael D. White, Jerre Ann Stallcup, Katherine Comer, Miguel Angel Vargas, Jose Maria Beltran- Abaunza, Fernando Ochoa, and Scott Morrison ABSTRACT The border region of Baja California in Mexico and California in the United States is a biologically diverse and unique landscape that forms a portion of one of the world’s global biodiversity hotspots. While the natural resources of this border region are continuous and interconnected, land conservation practices on either side of the international boundary that bisects this area are quite different. These binational differences place certain natural resources, ecological processes, and wildlife movement patterns at risk of falling through the cracks of conservation efforts implemented in each country. Thus, effective conservation in this region requires binational cooperation with respect to conservation planning and implementation. This paper describes the differences in land conservation patterns and land conservation mechanisms between Baja California and Alta California (Southern California). The Las Californias Binational Conservation Initiative is discussed as a case study for binational cooperation in conservation planning.

Imperial County Agriculture Fresh market carrots Thinning cantaloupes Field harvesting broccoli Harvesting Wheat Cattle Feedlot Colorado water delivery Field packing 'Sweet Imperial' Field packing of Alfalfa hay bale onions honeydew melons Imperial County Overview The Weather Winters are mild and dry with daily maximum temperatures in the 65 to 75ºF (18-24ºC). Summers are extremely hot with daily maximum temperatures of 104 to 115ºF (40-46ºC). The annual rainfall is just over 3 inches (7.5 cm) with most of it coming in late summer or midwinter. Location & Early History Imperial County is located near the Mexican and Arizona borders in Southern California. In the early 1900's the region was a barren desert. Early developers saw that Colorado River could be diverted to supply irrigation water. By 1915, three hundred thousand acres were under cultivation producing vegetables, agronomic crops and livestock to feed the nation. In 2009, Imperial Valley had 572,286 harvested acres worth $1,045,092,000. Leading crops in the area in 2007 are vegetables (114,099 acres -value $690.3 million, agronomic crops (368,517 acres -value $257 million), livestock (Value $343.2 million) fruit & nuts (5,745 acres -value $47.765 million), seed & nursery (62,237 - value $65.577 million, and apiary products ($3.562 million). The Vegetables Imperial Valley has a well-known reputation for midwinter salad vegetables. Shipments of crisp head lettuce, leaf lettuce, cauliflower, broccoli, and cabbage start in December and continue until March. Asparagus is in- season January, February and March. Carrots are harvested January to June. Spring production of warm-season vegetables starts in late April with the harvest of Sweet Imperial onions, sweet corn, bell pepper, chili peppers, cantaloupes, mixed melons and watermelons. -
