SAN DIEGO (CNS) - The Center for Biological Diversity and Endangered Habitats League filed a joint petition Monday to protect Quino checkerspot butterflies -- now found only in southern San Diego County and southwestern Riverside County in the United States -- under the California Endangered Species Act.The petition, filed with the California Fish and Game Commission, notes that the Quino checkerspot was once one of the most common butterflies in Southern California. But with the rapid spread of urban sprawl, the butterfly has lost more than 75% of its historic habitat and in 1997 was listed as endangered under the federal Endangered Species Act."It's alarming that a butterfly that once filled the skies of Southern California is now only found in pockets of its former range," said Dr. Tara Cornelisse, an insect scientist at the Center for Biological Diversity. "Even more alarming is that some of those few critical patches of remaining habitat are slated to be developed. With insects declining at a frightening rate, we need to protect more habitat for endangered butterflies, not allow it to be carved up piece by piece."The Center for Biological Diversity is an Arizona-based nonprofit organization known for its work protecting endangered species through legal action and scientific petitions. The Endangered Habitats League is a similar organization focused specifically on Southern California.Despite federal protection, the Quino checkerspot butterfly remains at risk due to continued habitat destruction and fragmentation, climate change, nitrogen pollution, invasive species and lack of enforced protections, a statement from the center said.In the past decade, the butterfly has only been observed in 33 of 62 historic sites and only inhabits patches of southern San Diego and southwest Riverside counties, according to the center.It is a subspecies of the Edith's checkerspot butterfly and is distinguished by its checkerboard pattern of white and orange spots on its black wings.According to the activists, several major development projects totaling more than 6,500 acres and President Donald Trump's planned border wall could negatively impact the butterfly's remaining habitat."By first decreasing the butterfly's designated critical habitat and then allowing large-scale development projects within its few remaining strongholds, the Trump administration has failed to protect this endangered butterfly," said Dan Silver, petition coauthor and executive director of Endangered Habitats League. "To have a chance at surviving rampant development and other threats like climate change and invasive species, the Quino checkerspot butterfly urgently needs California state protection."Under the California Endangered Species Act, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife has three months to make an initial recommendation to the Fish and Game Commission, which will then vote on the petition at a public hearing. If the Quino checkerspot butterfly wins protection under the act, the state can enact its own protections. 3058

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer accepted a nine-figure loan from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Tuesday to help the city finance phase one of the Pure Water San Diego water recycling program.Faulconer joined EPA Acting Administrator Andrew Wheeler to formally claim the 4 million Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act loan. The city estimates that the first phase of the program will cost roughly .4 billion, including funding from the loan.San Diego will provide one-third of the city's drinking water through the Pure Water program by 2035, according to city officials. The city plans to break ground on the project's first phase in 2019."This federal funding is validation that our Pure Water Program is cutting-edge technology and a worthy investment for San Diego's future water independence,'' Faulconer said. "This is going to be one of the most significant infrastructure projects in San Diego history and will deliver clean, reliable water to our residents for decades to come.''As part of the first phase, the city will upgrade existing water facilities and construct new ones, like the North City Pure Water Facility near Eastgate Mall. Phases two and three will result in new water pipelines and facilities in central San Diego and South Bay.Congress enacted the WIFIA loan program in 2014. The EPA has loaned more than .5 billion in WIFIA assistance for five projects over the last two years."This WIFIA loan will help San Diego construct a state-of-the-art water purification facility that will produce 30 million gallons of clean drinking water each day,'' Wheeler said.City officials estimate that the Pure Water project will add nearly 500 jobs in the next five years. The city expects the project to be completed and functional by 2023. 1807
