It is our pleasure to inform you that the City of San Bernardino has met the criteria for the Surface Mining and Reclamation Act (SMARA) Award for 1995. The City of San Bernardino has demonstrated its commitment to balance environmental integrity and economic growth through its surface mining ordinance and compliance with the statutory requirements of SMARA. SMARA is administered by the Department of Conservation through a partnership with local government agencies. As a means of recognizing the most successful partnerships, the Department has developed the SMARA Lead Agency Awards Program. This award program commemorates the best in public policy -- excellence in the management of natural resources at the local level. The Department would like to honor the City of San Bernardino by presenting a plaque in recognition of this fine achievement. In addition, the names of those lead agencies receiving this award will be the subject of a Department press release and an announcement at the January public meeting of the State Mining and Geology Board. The State Mining and Geology Board will be contacting you within the next few weeks to arrange for the award presentation. Sincerely, DeWayne Holmdahl, Chair Elin D.

San Bernardino County and Rail Cycle have reached agreement on a package of benefits which includes a business license tax. However, because of a recent California Supreme Court ruling which prohibits public agencies from imposing taxes without a majority vote of the people, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors has placed this measure on the ballot . The Board has approved the Rail Cycle landfill project, but the tax must be approved and initiative (Measure L) must be defeated before building can begin. Rail Cycle is a project of Waste Management , Inc. to transport up to 21,000 tones per day of nonhazardous municipal solid waste from various cities and counties in Southern California, and to construct and operate a large capacity, long-term landfill facility (60-100 years) . It is designed to meet strict Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards for new landfills, including double liners and liquid and gas leachate monitoring. It would be located about 90 miles east of Barstow. When the facility is operating at full capacity, the tax on Rail Cycle is expected to generate $24 million in general tax revenues to the County, based on anticipated revenues from tipping fees charged per ton of waste disposed at the landfill . Other fees which do not require voter approval will also be paid by Rail Cycle to be used for the post-closure and remediation of county landfills scheduled for closure in the near future and for mitigation of air quality impacts in the desert . ARGUMENTS FOR: 1 . The County' s general fund will benefit significantly from the operation of the landfill . The benefits package will also help to pay for scheduled closing of outdated County landfills which do not meet the stricter EPA standards. 2 . Taxpayers would not be liable for cleanup. State and federal regulations require landfill operators to include a financial assurance mechanism to cover the cost of closure and postclosure and for potential corrective actions should the landfill contaminate ground water . ARGUMENTS AGAINST: 1. The County is selling out to big money interests who might leave local taxpayers to pay for cleaning up leaks. 2 . The County should not allow trash from outside the county, but if it does, money would only come years from now if dump operates at full capacity. Measure L Clean Desert Water Coalition Initiative This measure is related to Measure M, the Business License Tax. Signatures to place Measure L on the ballot were gathered by a group composed primarily of opponents of the proposed Rail Cycle Bolo Station landfill . It would ban any landfill within 10 miles of potential potable water for domestic or municipal use. Rail Cycle ' s proposed landfill is located within 10 miles of such a water source, which supplies water to the Cadiz Land Company, an agricultural operation. If this measure passes, the Rail Cycle project could not go forward even if the business tax passes. The primary SUPPORTERS of the initiative are the Cadiz Land Company and the Desert Environmental Response Team. The primary OPPONENT of the initiative is Rail Cycle. ARGUMENTS FOR: 1. Landfills leak and contaminate the groundwater . 2. If Rail Cycle abandons the site, taxpayers will have to pay to clean it up. 3. Scarce desert water sources must be protected for present and future growth of the High Desert. The Rail Cycle project sits astride an aquifer that has the potential, if needed, to supply 100,000 people with drinking water annually. 4 . San Bernardino County should not take Los Angeles ' garbage. ARGUMENTS AGAINST: 1. New landfills must meet strict EPA standards intended to prevent contamination of groundwater and other adverse impacts on the environment . 2. Operators of landfills must provide financial assurances in the event that corrective actions are necessary. 3. If this measure passes, it would be difficult to locate new landfills anywhere in the county even if the County itself runs out of capacity. 4 . The site sits over the part of the aquifer which is too salty to drink and it will not affect the part which is of higher quality. * Researched and Prepared by the League of Women Voters of San Bernardino to inform voters about these important measures . rr r Measure L Clean Desert Water Coalition Initiative This measure is related to Measure M, the Business License Tax.
