There Is No Effective Mitigation for Highway Building in San Onofre State Beach
- "The loss of this coastal haven [San Onofre State Beach] cannot be compensated. There's no land left. And -- here's the kicker -- like any major highway in an unspoiled area, the toll road would attract large-scale development to wild lands; generate contaminated runoff, visual blight and noise; and disrupt the natural flow of the creek that maintains the beach and surf breaks. There is no effective mitigation for such damage." - excerpt from the Los Angeles Times, free registration required, at http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/opinion/la-op-sanonofre8may08,1,929442.story
