A Terrible Plan: Triple Border Fence for Coastal San Diego County
- "Opposition to the Triple Border Fence project is close to unanimous. Critics include two federal agencies as well as state, county, and local governments, the area's two congressional representatives, and numerous environmental, human rights, and archeological organizations. By contrast, the driving force behind the project is one man: Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.), chair of the powerful House Armed Services Committee, whose district does not even include the 14-mile stretch of border where the project is being built." - excerpt from a Grist Magazine article referring to the Triple Border Fence that Homeland Security wants to build through a wildlife refuge at the coast in the southwest corner of San Diego County.
