SAN DIEGO (CNS) - The U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement trade deal includes 0 million in funding to address cross-border pollution in the Tijuana River Valley, San Diego's congressional delegation announced Wednesday. The funding would be dispersed in four annual installments of million in the form of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency grants under its Border Water Infrastructure Program. In June, the fiscal year 2020 federal budget for the BWIP was only million, according to the office of Rep. Scott Peters, D-San Diego. ``The USMCA delivers a massive funding investment that can fix the Tijuana River's sewage spills once and for all,'' Peters said. ``This funding can stop the environmental crisis that has plagued our community for decades and will improve public health.'' The bulk of the funding would be used to expand and upgrade the South Bay International Wastewater Treatment Plant, operated by the International Boundary and Water Commission. The funding would be used to fortify the plant's water treatment capabilities, allowing it to stanch flows of polluted storm and wastewater into the river. ``Cross border pollution is a nightmare for our community and for the individuals that work and recreate near the border,'' Imperial Beach Mayor Serge Dedina said. ``This funding is a critical step towards cleaning up the contamination in the Tijuana River Valley and making our beach safe for surfers and others who enjoy our coast.'' Transborder pollution from the Tijuana River has contaminated U.S. waters and coastlines for decades, forcing San Diego County environmental health officials to regularly close beach access near the border. During that time, local and state officials and environmental activists have called for federal assistance to protect the health of the environment and residents near the border. In April, Sens. Kamala Harris and Dianne Feinstein, D-California, submitted a jointly written letter to multiple federal agencies requesting they address sewage runoff in the river. In July, Peters and Reps. Juan Vargas, D-San Diego, and Mike Levin, D- Oceanside, introduced legislation to increase funding for Tijuana River cleanup efforts and prevention of future pollution. And in September, the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce's annual delegation of local officials and business leaders discussed the issue with cabinet officials and members of Congress. ``This environmental issue has plagued our region for generations and this funding will take major strides in helping us address health and ecological challenges we face,'' Levin said. ``Along with my colleagues, I made it clear to the Trump administration and House Democratic leadership that it is long past time that we make robust investments in cleaning up polluted water that flows over the border.'' The San Diego chapter of the Surfrider Foundation and the city of San Diego have also filed lawsuits against the IBWC, arguing that it has neglected pollution in the river and its effect on the environment. The city jointly filed its lawsuit with California Attorney General Xavier Becerra. The pending funding is a result of Tuesday's deal between congressional Democrats and the White House to support a revised USMCA. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco, said the modified trade agreement includes more strenuous labor and environmental standards for the three countries. House Democrats are now expected to vote for the deal's ratification and send it to the Republican-controlled Senate. The USMCA would replace the North American Free Trade Agreement, which went into effect in 1994 and is blamed by some politicians on both sides of the aisle for hastening outsourcing and the decline of the country's manufacturing industries. President Donald Trump, who campaigned on retooling NAFTA, has faced pushback from members of Congress for much of the year for elements of the original deal like tariffs on steel and aluminum and its enforcement provisions. Local business leaders and elected officials have sung the deal's praises for months, arguing that inter-border commerce is too vital to the San Diego region to sever trade relations between the U.S. and Mexico. The current U.S. legislature and Canadian parliament must still approve the deal for it to go into effect. The Mexican legislature ratified it earlier this year. ``We've been pushing for this modernized trade agreement and now it's here, in a way that sets up San Diego to win big,'' San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer said. ``More free trade and less pollution at the border -- it's what San Diego needs and it looks like it's what San Diego is going to get.'' 4656

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Two new supervisors along with four other county officials, including the district attorney, were sworn in Monday.With family members looking on, Supervisors Jim Desmond and Nathan Fletcher, Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk Ernest Dronenburg, Sheriff Bill Gore, Treasurer/Tax Collector Dan McAllister and District Attorney Summer Stephan took an oath to both the U.S. and state constitutions.Fletcher, who succeeds Ron Roberts, is the second Democrat to serve on the technically nonpartisan Board of Supervisors in roughly three decades.He defeated Republican Bonnie Dumanis in the Nov. 6 election to represent the Fourth District, which includes parts of central and northern San Diego proper from downtown to La Jolla.Desmond, former Republican mayor of San Marcos, defeated Democrat Michelle Gomez, a legislative analyst. He succeeds Bill Horn in representing north San Diego County, including Carlsbad, Oceanside, Fallbrook and Borrego Springs.Gore, Stephan, Dronenburg and Dan McAllister all won outright in the June primary, with more than 50 percent of the vote collected by all four incumbents.After being sworn in, each official gave a short speech. Fletcher said it's a tremendous honor to be able to serve the public, and he takes that obligation very seriously. He said change can be difficult and ``push us outside of our comfort zone,'' but can also mean new insight, benefiting policy and governance.Whatever differences board members have, ``we must always strive to find agreement,'' Fletcher said. While principled dissent is OK, Fletcher said he'll work tirelessly to advance the principles of the county motto: ``the noblest motive is the public good.''``I believe in government as an institution of good, where opportunity is open to all,'' Fletcher said. ``Today, let's get to work.''Desmond said he was ``honored and overwhelmed'' to join the board and thousands of county employees.``I feel today like I've been given a great gift: the opportunity to make positive changes that will affect the county's 3 million voters,'' Desmond said.He said he'll focus on ensuring his district gets the roads, parks and services that resides need, while also concentrating on homelessness, public safety, water access and other infrastructure issues.Desmond said he will support workforce, affordable and veterans' housing, but the county must address traffic congestion issues by improving highways.``Trolleys and (public) transit won't fix all of our needs in San Diego County,'' he said.Gore said his department has worked to make the county one of the safest in the nation, but joked that he didn't sound like former President George W. Bush when he declared ``mission accomplished'' on the Iraq war.``There is still more work to do, Gore said, adding that the county has lowered the recidivism rate to 33 percent, doubled the number of mental health clinicians in its jails, increased beds, and added psychological training and programs to help inmates once they get out.He also said the Sheriff's Department hopes to have a fully accredited mental health care program by 2020 and is planning to build a tunnel connecting the downtown central jail to new courthouse over the next two years.Gore praised colleagues such as Undersheriff Michael Barnett and Chief Administrative Officer Helen Robbins-Meyer for their efforts. He also credited the San Diego Police Department and other law enforcement agencies for their collaboration on serious public safety issues.Stephan said she is grateful for her team and community ``for the mission we're putting forth, the mission of respect and equal treatment for everybody.''Stephan mentioned how her life was shaped by her grandmother, who lived through the Armenian genocide early in the 20th century and traveled to America to find a home.Stephan said her office is going to ``push back the (against) bullies'' and stand up for the vulnerable, including seniors and school children.To avoid a ``one size fits all'' justice system, she and her colleagues created a special position for criminal justice and mental health reform, while also protecting community safety.Stephan said her office is close to launching program within the coming year that will help young people be better informed about substance abuse and deceptive social media practices.Dronenburg said his office has re-opened two offices in the county, improved mass-appraisal techniques and shortened the backlog for appraisals, saving the county million.He said the department has improved both customer and online service, and hired a taxpayers' rights advocate.Dronenburg credited his colleagues for the positive changes.``We are no longer faceless bureaucrats,'' Dronenburg said, adding the department has received national and state recognition for the use of technology.``I've been on the ballot 18 times and won 18 elections,'' he added. ``I want thank the voters -- they're the ones who put me here.''McAllister said the county expects to collect .5 billion in taxes from residents this year. He noted that the county now collects 60 percent of taxes electronically, saving residents an estimated 0,000 in postage.``We currently assist 210 public agencies in San Diego County, and last fiscal year, we reached a record high of .6 billion in our AAA-rated investment pool, making it the second largest pool in the state for the third investment pool, making it the second largest pool in the state for the third year in a row,'' McAllister said.He said the county hopes to have a 75 percent electronic collection rate by 2023.McAllister cited other accomplishments, including an email reminder program for taxpayers, high annual collection rates and education symposiums that have won national acclaim. 5771

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — A coalition of some of San Diego's biggest business and labor groups wants the city to enact Measure C, the hotel-tax increase that did not generate the necessary support during the March primary.The measure would have raised the city's hotel tax by as much as 3.25% to pay for expanding the convention center, adding services for the homeless, and funding road repair. The measure failed to get the two-thirds vote California law requires for many tax increases. "Sixty-five percent of the people voted for it, that's an overwhelming majority of the voters," said Betsy Brennan, CEO of the Downtown San Diego Partnership, a member of the coalition. "To me that speaks to the need and the desire for people to want to support this measure."The measure may, however, have new life. Two recent court cases involving Upland and San Francisco are giving supporters hope that Measure C can be enacted with a 50-percent plus one majority. It's because Measure C was a citizens' initiative, and there is now a legal precedent that tax increases that got to the ballot through signature drives can pass with a simple majority. “Measure C was overwhelmingly supported by San Diego voters in March, and we believe the will of the people — both the voters and the citizens who placed Measure C on the ballot — should be enacted," said a statement from the coalition, attributed to executives from the Chamber of Commerce, Tourism Authority and San Diego and Imperial Counties Labor Council. "Reducing homelessness, repairing roads and investing in our local economy are just as important as it was in March, if not more so. We believe in this cause and will continue to pursue Measure C’s implementation.”The coalition says it will continue to pursue Measure C's implementation. That could involve suing the city over the measure. The City Council itself could take action but discussed it behind closed doors last week without taking any action. Others, however, say enacting Measure C would send the wrong message to voters, who entered the polls March 3 understanding the proposition needs a two-thirds vote. "There are people out there who say my vote doesn't matter. Changing the goalposts after the election would prove that to be true," said Christopher Rice Wilson, associate director at Alliance San Diego, a community empowerment organization that did not take a position on Measure C. The final vote on Measure C was 239,024 in favor, versus 127,349 opposed. 2487
