THE READY FOR SCHOOL? ISSUE

Back-to-school traffic returns

BY COLIN NEWTON Special to the Daily Press

SMC Santa Monica College will be opening its doors today for the fall semester, and all Santa Monica public schools will open Tuesday. For residents in some areas, that means one thing: traffic.

The schools don’t normally open at the same time.

“It’s one of the first times it’s happened in about 20 years. It’s very unusual,” said Genevieve Bertone, director of sustainability at Santa Monica College.

The synchronized start date is part of the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District’s plan to give students more time to study for AP and mandated exams.

SMC shares Pearl Street with John Adams Middle School, and is near Grant Elementary and Will Rogers Learning

Community. Santa Monica High School is down Pico Boulevard.

The college always participates with traffic authorities to facilitate traffic in the neighborhood, Bertone said. City road signs have already been placed on Pico warning travelers to expect delays starting Monday.

“We know the extra traffic’s going to be a burden to people coming into Santa Monica, to residents in Santa Monica,” said Santa Monica Police Department’s Sgt. Jaime Hernandez, supervisor of neighborhood resource officers.

To help the college prepare for the congestion, police trained college personnel to provide traffic control, Hernandez said.

SMC personnel will cover the corners of Pico and Pearl.

For the first two weeks, police will be

Paddling down the L.A. River NOAKI SCHWARTZ Associated Press

LOS ANGELES Paddle beneath an overpass and for a moment the concrete flood-control channel that shackles the Los Angeles River for much of its length gives way. Willows bend in the breeze, blue dragonflies skim the surface and snowy egrets rest under the cottonwoods.

Getting here legally is the hard part.

Nearly four decades after capricious flood waters were tamed by concrete, the 51-mile river has largely existed as a no-man's land, a fenced-off, garbage-strewn scar running through the city that serves as occasional set for Hollywood car chases and frequent canvas for graffiti artists. Trespassers risk getting fined for damaging county property.

Kayakers, naturalists and recreation buffs want to change that. After decades of work they're closer than ever to getting "people to see the river as a river," says Melanie Winter, who heads the River Project. The challenge now is getting more bureaucrats to recognize that a river truly runs through L.A. and not just a flood control channel that must be protected.

"The objective is to have open access in these areas to fish, kayak and go bird-watching but hanging over them is that it's technically not legal to do that," said Charles Eddy, a board member of Friends of the Los Angeles River, a nonprofit dedicated to restoring the river.

Nearly 300 people will have a chance to experience one of the few stretches of the waterway that actually looks like a river during a six week pilot program sponsored by the LA Conservation Corps. A decade in the making, the program required the approval of at least a half dozen local, state and federal agencies.

When the corps announced the pilot program they expected some attention, but the $50 trips sold out in just minutes. Officials later discovered their website got 16,000 hits.

The two-mile kayak tour in the Sepulveda basin offers a water's-level glimpse at what could be. Here, the banks and river-bottom are soft brown dirt instead of concrete. Yellow SEE RIVER PAGE 8

VIKINGS TURNED CORSAIRS: Former Samohi Vikings Brandon Taylor, Javon Johnson, Kris Comas, Austin Ehrlich, Joel Ramos and DeVondre Burris will suit up for Santa Monica College this fall. Their move to SMC signals a renewed relationship between the two schools.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

SMC’s Samohi connection

BY DAVE GRENLEY Special to the Daily Press

SMC When Santa Monica College’s football team takes the field for the season opener this weekend the Corsairs will be sporting a distinct Santa Monica High School tint.

SMC Head Coach Gifford Lindheim and his team are looking to bounce back from a tough 4-6 2010 season in which his team only won two conference games. Hopefully, six Samohi graduates on the 2011 roster are ready to do their part to bring the hometown program back to prominence. The sextet of former Samohi Vikings includes: DeVondre Burris, Kris Comas, Brandon Taylor, Joel Ramos, Javon Johnson and Austin Ehrlich.

"Growing up in the community, there has always been a rich tradition of football at Santa Monica High School and Santa Monica College. One of the most important items on my list when I was fortunate enough to take over this program was to re-

connect with Santa Monica High School,” Lindheim said. “We are fortunate to have some Vikings on our squad. We're really excited about the contributions that we think these guys are going to make. There are some very good football players in the group, and I feel very connected to them as people and to their success at Santa Monica College.”

That sentiment sits well with freshman wide receiver Comas, who was Samohi’s top playmaker last season.

“Coach Giff has my back,” Comas said.

“This was the best decision I could have made.”

Comas tallied 17 touchdowns his senior year at Samohi, amassing 50 receptions totaling over 1,000 yards on the season. He averaged over 40 yards per kickoff return to boot.

The decision to continue their football careers and enroll at SMC was a relatively easy one. The consensus amongst the group was that this was the best place for them, on and off the field.

“Coach Giff has so many connections.

That will benefit me down the road.

Coming here was a great decision,” said running back Johnson.

The players unanimously cited the environment, the connection they had developed with the coaches, the high level of familiarity with the school and the football program and the ease in transition from high school to college as factors behind their decisions.

“This is the field we played on in high school. We all feel comfortable here at SMC,” said linebacker Ehrlich.

Aside from the familiarity with Corsair Field, other factors helped sway a number of the former Vikings to pick SMC. “Academics were important for me,” said defensive lineman Ramos. “This is one of the best community colleges. It's ranked No. 1 in the nation for transferring to fouryear colleges.”

Walgreens a neighborhood nightmare

Editor:

In the Aug. 24, 2011 SMDP article titled “A new kind of door-to-door service,” Dean Kubani, director of the Office of Sustainability and the Environment at City Hall, stated, “As of Sept. 17, City Hall will shut down the drop-off location at the City Yards six days a week.

Residents will only be able to bring hazardous materials directly to the facility on Saturday between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m.” and “City Hall chose to try out the program to make hazardous waste drop off more convenient, and to save between $90,000 and $100,000 per year in personnel costs.”

The drop off location at the City Yard is to be replaced by “four state-of-the-art vans” which will provide door-to-door pick up of hazardous materials. The article states that the yard gets approximately 5,000 drop-offs per year. This number equates to about 16 drop-offs per day. This should require a part-time position for one employee at most, and from my personal observations of the drop-off facility that appears to be the case.

So how does replacing a part-time position with four state-of-the-art vans, and presumably four employees save money?

Easy fix for tar Editor:

Thank you for your timely and instructive article on jelly fish and stingrays (”Danger beneath the waves,” Aug. 19, page 1). I was running and swimming at Dorothy’s Beach out in front of Santa Monica Shores Monday and I saw no jelly fish or sting rays but there was that pesky periodic oil or tar on the beach and floating in the water.

You might want to tell folks that the easiest, fastest and safest way to remove tar from your feet is generic baby oil.

A paper towel or rag with baby oil will take off every bit of beach tar. Petrol product to remove petrol product.

NEW

WALGREENS

DRUG

STORE

proposed for the intersection of Pico and Lincoln boulevards is a much smaller project than the contentious Bergamot Transit Village Center development that’s been in the news recently. But, it’s still causing much anxiety for adjacent Sunset Park neighbors.

Traffic impacts resulting from the Walgreens proposal are a major sticking point here, too. Plans are for vehicles to access the Walgreens parking lot from Bay Street/Lincoln Court next to the new drug store, which is proposed for the southeast corner of the busy intersection.

City Hall wants to avoid a driveway on Lincoln, especially so close to Pico Boulevard for, if nothing else, obvious safety reasons. However, “back door” parking lot access also has problems: vehicles coming and going a stone’s throw from nearby apartments, homes and condos.

Another issue is “24 hour operation,” meaning plenty of noisy activity ‘round the clock. Engine noise, car alarms, doors slamming, blaring car stereos and loud conversations in the middle of the night will constitute a continual nightmare for neighbors living, and trying to sleep, literally 23 feet from the proposed store and its parking lot.

Therefore, for the sake of adjacent families, store hours must be limited.

Then there’s alcohol sales. Walgreens wants to sell beer, wine and hard liquor or “spirits.” They must obtain a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) from City Hall and it also needs City Hall’s blessing as a condition for a California Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license.

City Hall loves alcohol sales because it brings in tax revenue. I believe that here, it’s too high a price to pay for irreparably destroying a whole neighborhood’s quality of life.

The immediate area is already awash with alcohol licensees and home to several rehabilitation clinics, a youth center, sober living centers and Santa Monica High School.

Because of the numerous existing alcohol outlets, the corner and adjacent alleys are frequently a hang-out for chronic inebriates and the site of alcohol-related criminal activity.

The Santa Monica Police Department provides input on CUPs, especially when alcohol or other factors affecting law enforcement are concerned. For the above mentioned reasons plus fears about underage drinkers accessing alcohol, Sgt. Richard Lewis e-mailed me and confirmed, “The department has opposed the issuance of a new alcohol license.”

Lewis added, “If one were to be issued, we would like to see conditions attached. Those are having a security guard at the location, having the alcohol at the back of the store, limited to a small area and only to be sold in bulk.”

The Walgreens project is tentatively scheduled for Planning Commission and

public review on Wed, Sept. 21. Restrictions such as reducing neighborhood traffic impacts, eliminating 24 hour operation and a complete restriction of alcohol sales must be imposed on this development.

ANOTHER NIGHTMARE

As if all the large developments in the eastern Mid-City area aren’t enough, neighbors in the Wilshire /Reed Park area shouldn’t feel left out. There’s a massive hotel development coming your way.

The proposed project at 710 Wilshire Blvd. includes the remodeling of the landmark Santa Monica Professional Building at the corner of Wilshire and Seventh Street across from Reed Park into a hotel with 55 guest rooms, retail and restaurant uses.

In addition to renovating the Professional Building for hotel use, developer Maxser & Co is asking, as part of a Development Agreement (DA), to erect a rather homely hotel wing, 81 feet tall with 230 additional guest rooms and 16,421 square foot retail/restaurant space on what is presently a surface parking lot at 1213-1233 Seventh St. Current zoning for the site is 50 feet height (four floors).

The new wing will feature a seventh floor rooftop swimming pool, spa and fitness center. Underground parking for 284 vehicles is projected — 100 fewer than required by code.

Architecturally, it looks like the “El Cheapo Hotel” in downtown Lubbock, Texas.

In addition, developer Maxser wants to build a separate, mixed-use, 24-unit residential building with ground floor retail on another lot across Seventh Court fronting on Lincoln Boulevard.

Maxser limited partner Alexander Gorby and his family members have been frequent and generous contributors to the election/re-election campaigns for all the “big five pro-development council persons.”

The draft EIR “determined that implementation of the project will result in the following significant and unavoidable impacts” involving aesthetics, air quality, historic resources, hazardous materials, construction issues, land use, neighborhood effects, noise, transportation, traffic and more.

Once the draft EIR is completed, Maxser’s development will go before the Planning Commission — probably in November and to City Council in December for DA review.

I’m betting the family Prius that Maxser will be given the whole enchilada making the score Developers 4, Residents zip.

Public input on the draft EIR will be accepted until 5:30 p.m. on Thurs. Sept. 1.

HELLISHEIDI, Iceland Sometime next month, on the steaming fringes of an Icelandic volcano, an international team of scientists will begin pumping "seltzer water" into a deep hole, producing a brew that will lock away carbon dioxide forever.

Chemically disposing of CO2, the chief greenhouse gas blamed for global warming, is a kind of 21st-century alchemy that researchers and governments have hoped for to slow or halt climate change.

The American and Icelandic designers of the "CarbFix" experiment will be capitalizing on a feature of the basalt rock underpinning 90 percent of Iceland: It is a highly reactive material that will combine its calcium with a carbon dioxide solution to form limestone — permanent, harmless limestone.

The researchers caution that their upcoming 6-to-12-month test could fall short of expectations, and warn against looking for a climate "fix" from CarbFix any year soon.

In fact, one of the objectives of the project, whose main sponsors are Reykjavik's city-owned utility and U.S. and Icelandic universities, is to train young scientists for years of work to come.

A scientific overseer of CarbFix — the man, as it happens, who also is credited with coining the term "global warming" four decades ago — says the world's failure to heed those early warnings, to rein in greenhouse-gas emissions from coal, gasoline and other fossil fuels, is driving scientists to drastic approaches.

"Whether we do it in the next 50 years, or the 50 years after that, we're going to have to store carbon dioxide," Columbia University's Wallace S. Broecker said in an interview in New York.

The world is already storing some carbon dioxide. As a byproduct of Norway's natural gas production, for example, it is being pumped into a sandstone reservoir beneath the North Sea. But people worry that such stowed-away gas could someday escape, while carbon dioxide transformed into stone would not.

The experimental transformation will take place below the dramatic landscape of this place 29 kilometers (18 miles) southeast of Reykjavik, Iceland's capital. On an undulating, mossy moor and surrounding volcanic hills, where the last eruption occurred 2,000 years ago, Reykjavik Energy operates a huge, 5-year-old geothermal power plant, drawing on 30 wells tapping into the superheated steam below, steam laden with car-

bon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide.

CarbFix will first separate out those two gases, and the CO2 will be piped 3 kilometers (2 miles) to the injection well, to combine with water pumped from elsewhere.

That carbonated water — seltzer — will be injected down the well, where the pressure of the pumped water, by a depth of 500 meters (1,600 feet), will completely dissolve the CO2 bubbles, forming carbonic acid.

"The acid's very corrosive, so it starts to attack the rocks," explained University of Iceland geologist Sigurdur Reynir Gislason, CarbFix's chief scientist.

The basalt rock — ancient lava flows — is porous, up to 30 percent open space filled with water. The carbonic acid will be pushed out into those pores, and over time will react with the basalt's calcium to form calcium carbonate, or limestone.

CarbFix's designers, in effect, are radically speeding up the natural process called weathering, in which weak carbonic acid in rainwater transforms rock minerals over geologic time scales.

The CarbFix team, beginning work in 2007, had to overcome engineering challenges, particularly in the inventive design and operation of the gas separation plant. They have applied for U.S. and Icelandic patents for that and for the injection well technique.

They plan to inject up to 2,000 tons of carbon dioxide over 6 to 12 months and then follow how far the solution is spreading via tracer elements and monitoring wells.

Eventually they plan to drill into the rock to take a core sampling.

"It will take months and years to test how well it has spread," Reykjavik Energy's Bergur Sigfusson, project technical manager, said as he guided two AP journalists through the step-by-step process over the rolling green terrain of the Hengill volcano.

The team's greatest concern is that carbon "mineralization" may happen too quickly.

"If it reacts too fast, then that will clog up the system," Sigfusson explained. Quick formation of calcium carbonate would block too many paths through the basalt for the solution to spread.

If it works on a large scale, scientists say, carbon mineralization has a limitless potential, since huge basalt deposits are common — in Siberia, India, Brazil and elsewhere.

One formation lies beneath the U.S. northwest, where the U.S. Pacific Northwest National Laboratory plans an experiment similar to CarbFix. The long-term challenge then becomes capturing the carbon dioxide, and building the infrastructure to deliver it to the right places.

MEDICAL WASTE WASHING UP ON NEW

Jersey beaches was a big problem in the late 1980s, closing beaches along a 50-mile stretch of the New Jersey shore. Officials scrambled for months to figure out where the waste was coming from, and eventually zeroed in on New York City's Fresh Kills Landfill on Staten Island. Sub-optimal systems there were not successfully containing medical waste and other garbage on site, and New Jersey beaches-and vacationers and business owners-were paying the price. Although no one was injured or exposed to disease by the washed up waste, the public was especially alarmed given the HIV/AIDS crisis gripping the nation at that time. New York City was required to pay $1 million for past pollution damages and had to shoulder the cost of clean-up at Jersey Shore beaches as well.

The resulting loss of tourism cost business owners throughout the affected region as much as 40 percent of their revenue, with total losses estimated at well over $1 billion.

Some New Jersey business owners remain upset that New York wasn't forced to pay them reparations for lost revenue as well.

In the wake of the scare, Congress enacted the Medical Waste Tracking Act in 1988, requiring the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to create a program to better track medical waste from cradle-to-grave so that it didn't end up fouling beaches or any other environments. While the program was not renewed when it expired in 1991, it served as a model for how states and municipalities could better track potentially dangerous medical waste while also helping medical facilities institute systems and processes for making sure they knew where their waste was going and that it would be disposed of responsibly.

Meanwhile, New York and New Jersey have coordinated on setting up and maintaining their own systems to stem the socalled “syringe tides.” The cornerstone is a multi-agency program designed to intercept debris within New Jersey Harbor before it can get to tourist-crowded Jersey Shore beaches. Thanks to the plan-which relies on surveillance by environmental groups as well as routine and special clean-up sweeps by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the implementation of a communications network to facilitate the reporting of incidents and quick responses-beach closures declined from more than 70 miles in 1988 to less than

DANGER: Medical waste washing up on New Jersey beaches was a big problem in the late 1980s, closing beaches along a 50-mile stretch of the New Jersey shore. Although that problem was addressed for the most part, bacterial contamination from sewage treatment outflows, contaminated storm water and other sources caused more than 24,000 beach closures or advisories across the U.S. last year.

four miles in 1989, with closures remaining at similarly low levels ever since.

Of course, medical waste is hardly the only problem facing America's beaches and coastal waters. According to the non-profit Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), bacterial contamination from sewage treatment outflows, contaminated storm water and other sources caused more than 24,000 beach closures or advisories across the country in 2010 alone. NRDC reports on water quality at U.S. beaches every year in its series of “Testing the Waters” reports. Pressure from the group has helped spur the EPA to agree to overhaul Clean Water Act regulations pertaining to urban and suburban storm water runoff and update decades-old beach water quality standards by 2012. These improvements should help to keep beaches from the Jersey Shore to the Great Lakes to California, and points in between, clear of debris and safe for swimmers and sunbathers of every stripe.

Transit Priority Systems Project Installation of the Transit Priority System (TPS) at 80 traffic signals along major corridors within the City of Santa Monica. Partial roadway closures or detours are expected at various locations on Santa Monica Boulevard, between Lincoln Boulevard and 26th Street, but impact to traffic should be minimal.

STATE FROM PAGE 1 erupted into a public debate on the Legislature's disclosure rules.

Assemblyman Anthony Portantino claims his office budget was slashed this summer and his staff targeted for layoffs as retribution for being the lone Democrat to vote against the state budget. Assembly Speaker John Perez, who controls lawmakers' staff and office budgets, claims Portantino was overspending.

In an effort to clear his name, Portantino requested copies of all Assembly members' budgets for the past few months, which he said would show not only how much office money lawmakers received, but also how those office budgets rose or fell because of how lawmakers cast their votes.

But the committee that oversees lawmakers' spending said those documents are not public and instead released budget figures that obscure hundreds of millions of dollars in spending. For example, the salaries of many legislative staffers who work for individual lawmakers do not appear on lawmakers' office budgets but rather on the budgets for legislative committees.

There's little information about the hundreds of thousands of dollars leaders from both parties dole out at their own discretion to lawmakers who are in their good graces.

Late Friday, after weeks of pressure from good government groups and news organizations, Assembly and Senate officials released newer documents about lawmakers' budgets, but the documents still appeared to be incomplete.

The tussle over spending records has

snowballed into a referendum on the law the Legislature itself approved to govern what it discloses. Some lawmakers are embarrassed by the lack of transparency, and media outlets are pressing the issue.

The debate follows a yearlong series by The Associated Press about the Legislature's secretive ways, and several stories by the AP and San Jose Mercury News that detailed lawmakers' failure to disclose their daily schedules. The Sacramento Bee and Los Angeles Times have filed a lawsuit seeking the same office expenditure records that Portantino was denied.

Meanwhile, GOP lawmakers under pressure from their hometown constituents are breaking ranks with their leadership to release information the Legislature has long sought to keep secret.

At least six Republican lawmakers have made all or parts of their office budgets public in the last two weeks, saying they do not want to be part of the secrecy surrounding the Legislature's $256 million annual budget.

"Here's an opportunity to really restore the faith of the people," said Assemblyman Tim Donnelly, R-Twin Peaks, a freshman lawmaker aligned with the tea party who was among the first to release his office budget. "The people have an absolute right to this information."

The documents he and some other lawmakers released were more detailed than the official budgets officials released.

In response to the pressure, Perez this month appointed a task force — headed by the same lawmaker in charge of blocking the release of budget documents — to investigate whether the Legislative Open Records Act needs to be updated. She is to report back in January, months after the close of this year's legislative session.

There are of course periodic reminders of city life such as an overturned grocery cart on the river bank, an occasional plane flying overhead or shredded plastic grocery bags that resembles Spanish moss hanging from trees and bushes.

Despite the short distance organizers are taking little chance of a slip up during the tryout program, which they hope to make permanent. In addition to signing legal waivers and requiring participants to strap on life jackets and yellow helmets, guides accompany them with medical equipment including a defibrillator.

turous moments of the paddle that include getting pushed through tall grass and down mini rapids or walking down-river while corps volunteers carry kayaks over obstacles.

The program is part of a broader effort to get legal recognition for the river as a river and eventually have more of it returned to a natural state. Last year proponents scored a major victory when the federal government designated the river a full-fledged navigable waterway. Environmental groups and legal experts are also looking at drafting state legislation or pushing the county to change its view of the waterway from infrastructure to a river so residents can use it.

Sean Hecht, who heads the Environmental Law Center at the University of California, Los Angeles said the goal is to allow residents to legally use the river.

"It's clear the LA River is a living river despite the fact that portions of it have been channelized," said Hecht who with his students have been advising groups about access issues.

SCHOOL FROM PAGE 1 assisting the college with traffic control in the greater bottleneck areas, he added.

“After a couple of weeks, it’ll get into a routine,” Hernandez added.

SMC and traffic services were expecting that there would be traffic in the fall for the past few months, Hernandez said.

Fliers were distributed by the college in the neighborhood surrounding the main campus, informing residents about the expected congestion.

In the summer, SMC launched an advertising campaign to educate students about alternative forms of transportation, Bertone said.

The college sent out postcards and emails to registered students, something that SMC doesn’t normally bother with.

The e-mail offered tips on avoiding traffic, such as taking the Big Blue Bus, carpooling or parking at a satellite campus and commuting to the main campus.

Driving to the main campus might be difficult, especially for new students.

“Students are already nervous and scared, we don’t want parking and transportation to be another barrier to pursuing their educational goals,” Bertone said.

SMC students can still ride the BBB for free during the fall semester. This is the third year BBB has offered free rides to students with a current SMC ID. To encourage biking, SMC has partnered with Bikerowave, a Los Angeles-based bicycle repair shop. Students with a valid SMC ID can get some free services from the shop, Bertone said.

If students cannot bike or take the bus, they should make arrangements to carpool, Bertone said.

“There’s no reason you should drive alone,” she said, citing the positive effect car-

pooling has on the environment and at the gas pump.

A new program the campus is offering is Zimride, a San Francisco-based online social networking system that matches riders and drivers for carpools.

SMC is the first community college to use the Zimride program, which is already being used by UCLA, Bertone said.

“It’s like Match.com for drivers,” she said.

“You go on, upload your profile.”

Profiles on Zimride include information on where you’re coming from and when you want to arrive on campus.

You can also upload more personal information, including what music you like to listen to and whether you smoke in the car, Bertone said.

“Things that really impact your commute,” she added.

Even carpools could have trouble finding parking, Bertone said.

The neighborhood around the campus is preferred parking, and normally parked cars without permits are ticketed.

Students who park in preferred parking spots will not be ticketed, but only for the first two weeks of the fall semester, Hernandez said.

“They’re going to grant you a little leeway,” he said.

Bertone hopes that students will follow the college’s advice, and get out of their cars to be greener commuters and reduce congestion. In doing so, they will be better citizens globally and locally, she said.

“That starts right here with being a good neighbor,” she said.

Hernandez had this advice for students and residents.

“For the first couple of weeks, be a little patient,” he said.

The City of Santa Monica has prepared an Initial Study and Negative Declaration for the City of Santa Monica Bike Action Plan. The City of Santa Monica has prepared this Notice of Intent to provide responsible agencies and other interested parties with information describing the proposal and its potential environmental effects.

PROJECT APPLICANT: PROJECT LOCATION:

City of Santa Monica Strategic and Transportation Planning Citywide

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The proposed project consists of the adoption of the City of Santa Monica’s 2011 Bike Action Plan (the Plan). The Plan recommends a number of policies, programs, and projects to promote bicycling and improve the bicycling network in the City. Specifically, the Bike Action Plan identifies 5-year plan and 20-year vision for bicycle programs such as encouragement events, educational programs, and awareness campaigns, as well as bicycle facilities (physical improvements) that include a variety bicycle treatments such as shared use paths and separated bike lanes, neighborhood greenways (bicycle boulevards), and slow streets. The approach to the proposed bikeway improvements was to identify what could be physically possible utilizing the existing public right-of-way without having to make any substantive changes to the street network, based on roadway measurements made in the field when developing the plan’s conceptual recommendations.

The Plan refines the bicycle network identified in the City’s Land Use and Circulation Element (LUCE) (certified Environmental Impact Report SCH #2009041117).

Refinements were made based on a community survey, a series of community workshops and meetings, staff and consultant analysis. Bicycling emerged as a priority in the City’s adopted LUCE because it can provide more clean transportation options, can replace vehicle trips with bicycle trips and promote health through active transportation. The Plan provides a strategic framework for achieving LUCE bicycle goals, policies and actions, supporting the adopted citywide goal of No Net New PM Peak Vehicle Trips.

The Plan recommendations include a back-bone network of high quality bikeways that include some projects which will require further fieldwork and refinement before finalizing the design.

Implementation of the bicycle projects identified in the Bike Action Plan would be dependent on the availability of funding sources. As a programmatic document, specific physical projects that implement the plan would be subject to future environmental review on an individual basis.

AVAILABILITY OF ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION: The Initial Study/Negative Declaration on the proposed project may be reviewed online at http://www01.smgov.net/planning/whats-new/index.html or in person at the following locations: City Planning Division public counter Room 111 1685 Main Street, Santa Monica, CA

Office of the City Clerk Room 102 1685 Main Street, Santa Monica, CA

REVIEW PERIOD: As specified by the State CEQA Guidelines, a 30-day public review period for the Negative Declaration will commence on August 29, 2011 and end on September 28, 2011. The City of Santa Monica welcomes agency and public comments on the document during this period. Any comments on the Negative Declaration must be received within the public review period. Comments may be submitted, in writing, by 5:30 p.m. on September 28, 2011 and addressed to: Michelle Glickert Strategic and Transportation Planning 1685 Main Street, Room 212 Santa Monica, CA 90401 Fax: (310) 458-8341 E-mail: michelle.glickert@smgov.net

■ Of the 1,500 judges who referee disputes as to whether someone qualifies for Social Security disability benefits, David Daugherty of West Virginia is the current soft-touch champion, finding for the claimant about 99 percent of the time (compared to judges' overall rate of 60 percent). As The Wall Street Journal reported in May, Daugherty decided many of the cases without hearings or with the briefest of questioning, including batches of cases brought by the same lawyer.

He criticized his less lenient colleagues, who "act like it's their own damn money we're giving away." (A week after the Journal report, Judge Daugherty was placed on leave, pending an investigation.)

■ Gee, What Do We Do With All This Stimulus Money? The Omaha (Neb.) Public School system spent $130,000 of its stimulus grant recently just to buy 8,000 copies of the book "The Cultural Proficiency Journey: Moving Beyond Ethical Barriers Toward Profound School Change" -- that is, one copy for every single employee, from principals to building custodians. Alarmingly, wrote an Omaha World-Herald columnist, the book is "riddled with gobbledygook," "endless graphs," and such tedium as the "cultural proficiency continuum" and discussion of the "disequilibrium" arising "due to the struggle to disengage with past actions associated with unhealthy perspectives."

SOLUTIONS TO YESTERDAY’S PUZZLE

There are many strategies to solving Sudoku. One way to begin is to examine each 3x3 grid and figure out which numbers are missing.

Then, based on the other numbers in the row and column of each blank cell, find which of the missing numbers will work. Eliminating numbers will eventually lead you to the answer.
