May 11, 2007- "SAVE TRESTLES" CAMPAIGN SCORES BIG - Back To Back Wins Aid Effort To Protect Surf Break and State Park -
Late Wednesday night the House Armed Services Committee passed an amendment to the National Defense Act that included language which now forces the TCA to comply with the same California state laws as other developers in obtaining approval to construct the proposed toll road. The amendment, which was submitted by Rep. Susan Davis of San Diego and supported by Rep. Loretta Sanchez of Orange County, was needed to counter several exemptions from state and federal environmental laws which the TCA had secretively garnered over the past several years.
"With these exemptions, the TCA had a trump card in their back pocket, which they could have used to avoid full compliance with environmental laws," said Surfrider Foundation Assistant Environmental Director, Mark Rauscher. "This vote is a victory for protecting park lands everywhere and upholding state laws."
Surfrider Foundation and its partners applaud Davis' efforts to level the playing field.
In other good news word came down late Thursday morning that the California District Court of Appeals had sided with the Surfrider Foundation and other environmental organizations and ruled that a suit filed by the Save Trestles/San Onofre coalition against the TCA for violating the California Environmental Quality Act must be heard in San Diego County (the TCA of course wanted the case to be tried in Orange County).
"The ruling by the 4th District Court of Appeals is a clear sign that this issue impacts more than just the residents of South Orange County," said Surfrider Foundation's Matt McClain. "If completed as planned, this toll road project will have direct and adverse impact on San Diegans, and very likely destroy precious resources that belong to the public at large."
While these two decisions do not yet represent the final nail in the coffin for the proposed toll road extension, they are two big steps towards that direction!

Sediment Flow [Save Trestles] - Daniel Gannaway
The future of Trestles grows increasingly uncertain. The Transportation Corridor Agencies (TCA) -- a privately held agency -- has been aiming to build an extension to the existing 241 Toll Road for nearly ten years now. Plans would connect the expansion with Interstate 5 at Basilone Rd, just south of Trestles Beach. Environmental activists and concerned surfers have recently begun doing all they can to throw a wrench in TCA's plans.
With the looming threat of the proposed Toll Road tearing through the precious San Mateo Creek, the TCA released the final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) last Wednesday. EIRs are required by law for any planned development and serve to gauge the ecological impact that may result from construction. First draft EIRs are drawn up by the developers' environmental consulting firms and then released to the public for comments.
Numerous organizations' and activists' views were addressed in last week's final EIR that plainly stated, "There will be no effect in sediment movement, and thus no effect on the breaks in any way due to the Foothill-South project. The Foothill-South project will not change the quality of the surf at Trestles"
"Our goal has always been to find a solution that balances the critical need to improve mobility, while preserving our natural environment and reducing impacts to our communities," said Ken Ryan (taken from www.thetollroads.com), Chairman of the Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor Agency.
The Surfrider Foundation, and other groups, such as the Sierra Club and Wildcoast disagree. "Everything the TCA tells you about how this project is going to affect the surf at Trestles is a lie," a steadfast Matt McClain of Surfrider Foundation voiced. "If the TCA wants to have an open debate about this, we'd be happy to oblige."
"They say because Trestles has a cobblestone bottom, the loss of sediment won't affect the waves," McClain continued. "But when sand fills in, it dictates the quality of the wave. Look at this past winter; locals were claiming it was the best it's been in ages because of all the sand that packed in from that record rainfall."
Surfrider, among other environmental organizations, maintain that the TCA's recommended alignment of the 241 toll road extension poses a significant threat to the water and wave quality of Trestles Beach. "Mundaka is a perfect example. After a government-dredging project took out all the sand up river, the break shut down. The bottom topography never changed, the break was just sand starved," McClain stated. "Mundaka shows you how dependent breaks like Trestles are on sediment flow."
The San Onofre State Parks are answering as many questions as they can and informing the public about any impending loss to the existing terrain. "This land is a treasure. It's the last of its kind," San Onofre State Park Superintendent Steve Long said recently. "The toll road will not only affect the water quality, but also the visual, aesthetical, and spiritual experience of Trestles."
The proposed toll road route has six miles of the sixteen-mile stretch of asphalt running parallel to San Mateo Creek. Surfrider believes the sediment will likely be offset because of the underground concrete reinforcement that is needed for the building of new roads. They've also raised water quality concerns because of the area's rolling hills. If not properly contained, highway runoff could potentially lead down to the river and ultimately the ocean.
There's been talk about an alternative plan that aims to divert the Toll Road up Christianitos Road and drop it back near the coast three miles south. This would avoid the San Onofre Campground as well as sacred Native America burial grounds that exist within the state park. However, the details of this plan have yet to come to fruition.
The surf industry has rallied behind the Save Trestles movement. Such notable figures as Volcom CEO Richard Woolcott, Surfline president Sean Collins, and a slew of others have voiced their distaste for the planned development.
"We are witnessing a disaster in the making", former Surfing Magazine publisher Bob Mignogna reminds us. "But it is not too late to prevent the 241 Toll Road Extension from being built through the San Mateo Canyon. Go to www.Surfrider.org to find out what to do. Take action now to protect our pristine surf park."
Surf Industry Manufacturers Association (SIMA) Executive Director Sean Smith went to bat against legislators in Sacramento recently. Smith not only discussed the adverse effects to the environment but also to the surf industry as a whole. "One voice alone isn't going to do it," Smith remarked. "We need thousands. I realized that in Sacramento. Everyone should write a letter to the current California administration, whether it's to Schwarzenegger or the Parks Department." In addition to Surfrider, Smith cited Friends of the Foothill as a major ally on the front lines.
So what's the next step? If the final EIR is approved on January 12th, 2006, organizations opposing this project will most likely file a lawsuit and the battle will move into the courts.
"We can win this campaign if we continue to get the support like we did at last month's meeting," McClain concluded encouragingly. "We need to politicize this issue and get people shouting loud enough for both our state and local officials to hear."

Friends,
Well the heat is on, literally and figuratively…
After a relatively quiet couple of months, the Save Trestles campaign saw a flurry of activity over the last two weeks.
Much hullabaloo was made about a coalition of local business interests and trade unions filing a motion to join the TCA in defending several lawsuits against the agency’s Environmental Impact Report for the proposed extension to the 241 Foothill-South toll road. Among those groups supporting the TCA, the Orange County Business Council, The Los Angeles and Orange County Building and Construction Trades Council, the Black and Latino Business Councils of Orange County and the South Orange County Chamber of Commerce.
Did you notice a reoccurring theme in all those groups?
That’s really the short of it isn’t it – a bunch of people are going to line their pockets at the expense of a state park, seven endangered and threatened species, and the surf break at Trestles.
In other news, the TCA has asked that the venue for the lawsuit be moved from San Diego to Orange County. Since the San Onofre State Beach Park and other resources affected by this project are in San Diego, it makes sense to hold the trial there, right? Not if you’re the TCA and are hoping to move the venue to their powerbase. A hearing to decide on the motion will take place this Wednesday in San Diego Superior Court.
In better news, thanks to two sold out performances at the Los Angeles Forum, the Surfrider Foundation’s Save Trestles campaign received a nice big check for $29,250 from Pearl Jam. The band made the donation through their Vitalogy Foundation. Sighted in the crowd was non-other than Woolly and the crew from Volcom – who made the trek up from OC to catch the show. As expected the band was great and even asked the audience to support both the Surfrider Foundation and the Save Trestles campaign.
Industry support continues to trickle in. As most of you recall, Scott Daley and the crew over at Body Glove (along with Oakley, Adio and Lost) all stepped up big for the BG Surfbout contest a few months back, raising over $3,000K for the campaign. Our friends at Rip Curl recently donated four pallets of rashguards which will be used to help raise funds for the campaign. Gary and Brandon Ward at Ocean Minded have also pledged to step up to the plate by producing cool little Save Trestle signs that the public can place in their yards to show support for the campaign. Many of you San Clemente residents may recall the success that the “Derail the Rail” folks had with a similar effort – and absolutely help in our goal of making this issue visible in our community.
As great as this support has been, WE STILL NEED MORE HELP FROM OUR FRIENDS IN THE INDUSTRY!!!
The Surfrider Foundation and our coalition partners are working hard each and everyday to prevent this project from happening, but at the end of the day – the TCA is still able to outspend us on a scale of thousands to one. We need to get the public educated, aware and active if we are to Save Trestles!
Create and sell a Save Trestles t-shirt… Create and donate a window display at one of your accounts… Print some stickers… Do something!
One last item – Chad Nelsen, Surfrider Foundation’s Environmental Director is working with researchers at UCLA to conduct a valuation study on the surf break at Trestles. If you happen to surf Trestles in the near future, please take a moment to visit www.beach.com/trestles <http://www.beach.com/trestles> and complete the short survey. Your participation can help us better understand the value of surf spots and may help in our efforts to protect this unique break.
Thanks as always for your continued support,
The Surfrider Foundation

State Attorney General Bill Lockyer has joined the Surfrider Foundation and other environmental organizations in filing suit against the Transportation Corridor Agency (TCA) to block the construction of the 241 Foothill South Toll Road. Lockyer filed the lawsuit on behalf of the people of California and the State Park and Recreation Commission. The complaint alleges the TCA and its board of directors violated the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) by failing to adequately assess significant environmental effects of the road, failing to identify measures that could mitigate those impacts, and failing to properly study alternatives that would avoid harm to the environment.
A press conference was held at the Department of Justice office in Sacramentoon March 23. Joining the Attorney General was Surfrider Foundation Executive Director Jim Moriarty to offer insight into how the toll road project would affect the surfing resources at the nearby breaks at Trestles.
“This project will certainly cause significant degradation to the water quality at Trestles, and will likely impact the actual break itself should we see changes to the hydrology of San Mateo Creek,” said Moriarty.
Meanwhile, 400 miles to the south, Surfrider Foundation’s South Orange County Chapter organized a protest rally around an afternoon appearance by United States Congressman Ken Calvert at the San Clemente Community Center. Approximately 50-70 activists were on hand to demonstrate their opposition to Rep. Calvert’s ongoing support for the TCA’s planned extension to the 241 Foothill South toll road. With television crews from KNBC, FOX and FUEL looking on, local protesters took advantage of the opportunity to admonish Rep. Calvert for his patronage of this ill-conceived project. To his credit, Rep. Calvert stood before the crowd for nearly 20 minutes, answering various questions. Ultimately however, the Congressmen’s answers proved unsatisfactory.
When queried about report findings from renowned engineering consultants, Smart Mobility, which stated that a simple widening of Interstate 5 would be cheaper and more effective than extending the toll road, Rep. Calvert responded “I’m all for widening I-5, but I think we need the toll road as well,” to which local Surfrider Foundation activist Mark Babski quickly reminded the Congressman that the TCA has a non-compete clause written into their contract with Cal Trans.
“Today’s protest is just the beginning,” said Surfrider Foundation South Orange County Chapter Chair Ed Schlegal. “Everyone of our elected officials, from the San Clemente City Council to the Governor, needs to know that our community is not going to stand for this project compromising our State Parks and threatening our coastal environments.”

Well, it’s official…the Transportation Corridor Agency has approved a plan to construct the extension of the 241 Foothill South Toll Road.
Yesterday’s vote by the TCA was by no means unexpected. What was a surprise was that the vote was not unanimous. In fact, three of the TCA’s own board members voted against the project.
As many of you know, during the days leading up Thursday’s vote, the Surfrider Foundation led a charge to implore Governor Schwarzenegger to oppose the project’s proposed alignment. As of Thursday morning, the Surfrider Foundation’s “Save Trestles” Action Alert had netted over 8,500 messages sent to the Governor and his staff.
The Governor’s office issued the following comments immediately prior to the TCA’s vote:
"This is a complex issue involving a State Park with an expiring lease on Federal military land with the decision-making authority over this proposed road resting in the hands of local officials represented by the Transportation Corridor Authority (TCA).
Administration officials are very disappointed that the TCA was unable to find an alternative alignment acceptable to the military. We understand the desperate need to reduce traffic congestion in this area, but are equally concerned about losing valuable state park land that is beloved by so many California residents.
Following TCA's vote, federal and state law will require the TCA to complete additional filings and a Federal environmental impact statement. The Resources and Business, Transportation and Housing Agencies will continue to work with the military, TCA, local officials and stakeholders to mitigate any impacts on San Onofre State Park should the project go forward as proposed, and to explore all viable alternatives should there be an opportunity to reconsider the alignment."
While not the strong condemnation we had hoped for, the Governor’s comments do signal reservations within the highest level of State Government about the project’s alignment. They also leave the door open for the Surfrider Foundation and its coalition partners to aggressively move forward with the next phase of the campaign.
The coalition partners will be meeting over the next several days to solidify “next step” strategies and responsibilities, the first of which will likely be the filing of legal action against the TCA on grounds that the project’s Environmental Impact Report contains significant omissions and errors.
In addition to legal action, the TCA also faces a series of hurdles as they begin efforts to secure the necessary approvals and permits for the project. The Surfrider Foundation will be working to rally public support to encourage each of the issuing agencies to deny permits for the project.
“This fight is far from over,” said Jim Moriarty, Surfrider Foundation’s Executive Director. “Rather this is the point in the campaign where Surfrider Foundation and its supporters can play the most pivotal role in stopping this project.”
The Surfrider Foundation is calling upon all coastal supporters to stay tuned for specific requests by going to www.savetrestles.org and clicking the “Take Action” section of the Web site, where we will be posting information on upcoming permit hearings, as well as continued information on how and where to submit comments to Governor Schwarzenegger and other elected and appointed officials.

Well folks – The TCA tried to sneak one in under the radar last night; securing a last minute add to the Aliso Viejo City Council agenda in an effort to convince the Council to reconsider their previous vote to oppose the recommended alignment of the 241 Foothill-South extension. Sample letter:
As expected, the TCA continued to spin yarns and dispense half-truths in hopes of selling this ill-conceived project. Examples include them trying to convince the council that the San Onofre State Beach and Campground lease was "unique" and will be "shortly expiring." This is obviously not the case, as the California State Parks system maintains over 20 parks on leased land - and like those other parks, the San O lease is expected to continue on indefinitely.
The TCA speaker also made specific mention of the surfing resources at Trestles - and stated that according to their expert analysis "There shouldn't be any increase in sedimentation or excess sand at the break", which elicited snickers from the audience, as our whole argument is based on sedimentation loss from the project (think Mundaka).
Two of the council members, Cynthia Adams and Karl Warkomski seemed particularly skeptical of the TCA's plan. Councilman Warkomski actually did an incredible job of holding the TCA speaker's feet to the fire regarding their efforts to obtain exemptions to the ESA and other environmental laws.
Despite the late notice, the Surfrider Foundation was able to turn-out a number of activists, a few of whom joined representatives from the Sierra Club and NRDC in providing public comments. Several audience members from Aliso Viejo and surrounding communities offered comments in support of the Council’s previous vote as well. In the end, the city council voted not to take any action (either to rescind or reaffirm their previous vote). While this fairly good news, it does demonstrate that the Aliso Viejo city council is still wrestling with this issue.
Therefore, it is extremely important that we let them know how much we appreciate their efforts to protect both our State Park system, the environment in and around San Mateo Creek and the surfing resources at Trestles. We ask that everybody please email each of the council members (sample letter below) and encourage them to continue their opposition of the TCA’s recommended alignment.

- Your friends at the Surfrider Foundation
Dear Council(wo)man ___________,
Thank you for your city’s recent vote to support California’s State Parks by opposing the recommended alignment of the 241 Foothill South extension. I understand that the TCA is seeking to have the Council rescind its position. As such, I urge you to stay the course and not be swayed by false promises of this ill-conceived project. While South Orange County certainly faces traffic issues associated with the continued growth and development, less expensive, more productive and less environmentally damaging alternatives exist that would better address this issues.
Your city’s vote to support the California State Park’s recommendation, will not only help to preserve one of Southern California’s last remaining unfettered watersheds and help protect seven endangered or threatened birds and animals, it will work to protect our precious beach and coastal resources and maintain the outstanding quality of life we have come to associate with living in South Orange County. For more information and to find out how you can help visit http://www.savetrestles.org.
Sincerely,

1. The local PBS station, KCET (channel 6 on Cox Cable), will broadcast a show on its news feature program Life & Times Tuesday (tonight) at 6:30 p.m. about San Onofre State Park and the proposed toll road, called "Taking a Toll on a State Park?"
2. Mark Rauscher of Surfrider's National office was interviewed yesterday for an upcoming radio show on the toll road issue. We'll let you know when that program is scheduled.
3. As you know, the day after Laguna Beach voted unanimously to oppose a toll road through San Onofre State Park, the city of Aliso Viejo followed suit. Then on Thursday, Orange County's toll road builders - Transportation Corridor Agencies (TCA) - were expected to vote on the proposed extension of the Foothill-South Toll Road that threatens San Onofre State Beach.
However, at the 11th hour, the TCA received a letter from the Schwarzenegger administration, signed by Resources Secretary Mike Chrisman and Business, Housing, and Transportation Secretary Sunne Wright McPeak requesting a 30-day delay on the vote, calling the issue "extremely complex," and requesting more time to review comments and concerns raised by state departments and stakeholders, including Surfrider. TCA Board members reluctantly agreed to the extension and the vote is now expected to take place on February 23rd at the TCA headquarters in Irvine.
We are pleased that Governor Schwarzenegger's administration is looking into this issue and will be considering the interests of ALL Californians who will be affected if the single-purpose toll road agency is permitted to ruin California's 5th most popular state park, including the world- famous surf at Trestles. This proposal is not just bad for San Onofre, but would set a dangerous precedent for all state parks throughout California that face continued development pressures.
As you can imagine, the coming month is critical to the future of San Onofre State Park. If you can, please write letters to our governor, and the two cabinet members who are getting involved on his behalf, ASAP. Letters DO make a difference. Also, letters to local newspapers are key as well. Addresses are below.
WRITE TO THE GOVERNOR TODAY!
Please write, call or email Governor Schwarzenegger and Secretaries Mike Chrisman and Sunne Wright McPeak. Thank them for considering the interests of all Californians and encourage them to promote transportation solutions that do not harm our protected parks. The TCA is a single-purpose agency not interested in exploring other alternatives, but our state leaders are capable of implementing win-win solutions that improve our transportation needs and protect our communities and valuable state parks.
