Top issues during term (5)(Environment)
Community Air Protection and air quality education
The county says new mandates — a hotline, website, expanded permitting — would land on local businesses and residents through fees, with no state funding attached.
SMARA mining oversight and abandoned Picacho mine
About $85,000 in forfeited financial assurance available for reclamation; consultant costs are borne by operators.
SB 675 — Imperial County air district restructuring
The district's $3.8 million budget versus San Diego's $155 million frames the cost concerns; costs would fall on permit holders and ratepayers.
Heber electric school bus funding increases
About $95,585 in additional AB 617 grant funds — not local tax dollars.
Geothermal permitting authority letter to CEC
Related to the county's $3.24 million-plus contract with Dudek for the Lithium Valley programmatic EIR, which critics called inadequate.
