I, Debra J. Adams, City Clerk of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, or my
designee, hereby certify that a true, accurate copy of the foregoing
agenda was posted on November 10, 1999, seventy two (72) hours
prior to the meeting per Government Code 54954.2 at 10500 Civic
Center Drive.
Submitted to the Rancho Cucamonga City Council on November 17, 1999
To Whom It May Concern:
Several neighbors and I are taking the initiative to open a dialogue with you as
the SAN BAG representative. We have taken some time to discuss this matter
and believe that there is room for an alternative solution to the issue of closing
Highland Avenue two years before the completion of the freeway. We did not
became aware of this matter until we received the Segment 4 Construction
Advisory dated 11/10/1999 which indicates that from 11/15/1999 forward,
Highland Avenue and other streets will be permanently closed. Why was there
never any mention of this in any of the updates sent prior to the 11/10/1999
Advisory?
Instead of a little over a mile and a half walk to get to school, mainly on side
streets that are not very busy, my daughter and other children living in our
neighborhood will now have to walk four miles on very busy main city
thoroughfares to get to Rancho Cucamonga High School and back. Not only is
this inconvenient, but we believe this action by SAN BAG has placed the children
in harms way. Did SAN BAG not give any consideration to the health, safety and
welfare of these children? What does SAN BAG plan to do to help mitigate this
problem?
What about the children that go to Victoria Groves Elementary? Now they will
have to travel three or four times the distance over busy city streets to go to the
same school? Was any thought given to this before the decision to close
Highland was finalized?
Did SAN BAG give notice to the city of Rancho Cucamonga that this closure was
going to occur approximately two years before the completion of the freeway?
Did SAN BAG ever recommend to the Rancho Cucamonga mayor or city council
to begin considering extending, across Deer Creek, a street such as Victoria
Park Lane to help mitigate this problem?
Has SAN BAG notified the Chaffey Unified High School District or the Alta Loma
School District that this closure is going to happen?
Has SAN BAG done anything to facilitate this matter with the people most
impacted by this closure? An example of the short notice provided by SAN BAG
is the Segment 4 Construction Advisory which is dated 11/10/1999 but not
received by us until Saturday 11/13/1999, two days before the closure and on a
weekend making it impossible to contact anyone in SAN BAG prior to the closure.
There was no mention of the closure in the SANBAG published Route 30 update
for October, and only an invitation to come to a meeting on 11/2/1999 with no
agenda indicating the topics to be discussed. Even if an agenda had been
provided, there was insufficient time for us to respond to SANBAG's intent to
close Highland. Based on this lack of consideration for the public, what recourse
does that leave for the average citizen?
About a year ago, when I first found out that the plan called for the closure of
Highland, I specifically asked SANBAG representatives when this would occur. I
was told by several different representatives (I think a man named Moon?) and
another person, both of whom told me that this closure would not happen until
the freeway was completed. They also told me that there would be
accommodations for pedestrians between where 19th currently cuts in to
Highland and Milliken. If something changed over the past year, why was this
community not notified sooner?
We are submitting this informal document as a first step in an attempt to achieve
recourse. I am looking forward to receiving an early response from you or your
superiors.
Thank you,
Jerry Jacobson

Submitted to the Rancho Cucamonga City Council on November 17, 1999
Mr. Gillespie,
My name is Jerry Jacobson and I live in Rancho Cucamonga. I drafted the
e-mail below for myself and four of my neighbors and sent it to SANBAG. I am
sending a copy to you, because we believe that as the engineer in charge of the
freeway project, some of our questions can or should be responded to by you.
To say that the unannounced and sudden closure of this portion of Highland
Avenue and some of the surrounding streets has taken us all by surprise, would
be an understatement.
In addition to the inconvenience, the impact to families that send their children to
schools east of Deer Creek is onerous. I only spent a short time yesterday
speaking with my neighbors about this matter, and one for one, they indicated
that they would support any effort to achieve some recourse.
A quote by Joe O'Neal in an article in the Daily Bulletin on Friday 11/12/1999
indicates that some people living south of Highland and between Deer Creek and
Milliken requested that Highland remain permanently closed. Several questions
come up when reading this statement.
1. Where is this "Deer Creek" as in "between Deer Creek and Milliken?
2. If my guess is correct, Mr. O'Neil is referring to the Deer Creek run off channel
just east of the Windsong tract where I live.
3. Who are these "people" referred to in the article? No one in my neighborhood
that I spoke with made a request to permanently close Highland. If a survey
were to be done, I bet it would show that very few, if any, "people" requested this.
4. If the "people" in the Windsong tract request that Highland not be permanently
closed, will you or Mr. O'Neil comply with our request?
5. What are the criteria for making this type of request? A preponderance of
"people", or perhaps it is based on demographics, or is the criteria more
monetary in nature?
6. When did Rancho Cucamonga lose its governing body? Am I to understand
that the mayor and city council do not have to rule on these types of changes?
7. Does Mr. O'Neil really have this much authority?
8. I understand that the city is planning on making Banyon or Wilson into a four
lane road out to the new Day Creek Blvd. Have the people in that area requested
this or will this also be a surprise?
I know that you may not like the way I phrased question 5 but I am appalled that
a man of Mr. O'Neil's stature would make such a ridiculous statement. If nothing
else, the statement shows the contempt he holds for the constituents of this fine
city.
I am only attempting to gather information to determine what recourse my
neighbors and I have regarding being heard about this issue. My intention is to
handle this very serious and important matter as amicably as possible. I hope
we will all be able to agree on that and come to a solution that is a win-win for
both the city and the constituents victimized by this decision.
I would very much appreciate a timely response to my issues and concerns both
above and in the attached e-mail.
Thank you,

DECLARATION OF DAVID T. WILLIAMS
Mr, J42(f431.P02
161112407
08120/97 NIg4;stl
1. I am the president of WEST Consultants, Inc., a
San Diego based water resources engineering firm. I received a
B.S. degree in Civil Engineering from the University of
California, Davis, and an M.S. in Environmental Civil Engineering
at the same university. I also received a Ph.D. in Hydraulics
and Sedimentation from Colorado State UniverSity. I am a fellow
o~ the American Society of Civil Engineers, an~adjunct professor
at San Diego State University in the Civil Engineering
Department, a certified Professional Hydrologisn, a Certified
Professional in Erosion and Sediment Control (CPESC), and a
California registered pro~essional Civil Engineer. I have over
25 years of experience in wa=er resources, with a specialty in
~lood hazard evaluation. I currently supervise over 20 engineers
who conduct flood related studies for the ArmyiCorps o~
EngineerS, California Department of Transportation, and Federal
Emergency Management Agency. I am familiar with the Corps of
Engineers' procedures as I was employed by the,Corp for
approximately 15 years. I am also f~_liar with FEMA regulations
and, in fact, I teach FEMA remapping procedures as part of a
course on hydraulics engineering for the American Society of
Civil Engineers. Attached as Exhibit A is a copy of my
curric~lumvitae. Because I am teaching such a FEMA course in
Portland, Oregon, I am not available to testify at the Rancho
Cucamonga City council hearing scheduled for AUgust 20, 1997. I
have personal knowledge of the statements made.heroin and, if
Sent by: LOEB & LOEB 213 688 3460; 11/03199 3:31PM;]etF"ax #985;Page 3/19
2. This declaration is made in support of Cucamongans
United for Reasonable Expansion (.CUEE") challenge to the Lauren
Development Project. I have ha~ the opportua=i~y to personally
evaluate the Deer Creek Debris Basin and the p=operty between the
Debris Basin and the levee. I also have walked the levee. I
have reviewed documents and understand that the proposed
residential development by Lauren Development involve~ removal of
an approximately 48' high and over 2,080 foot long, levee and
multiple swale system built in the 1950s. This levee and swale
system has effectively served to hold back water and debris flow
from downslope structures, including water and.debris flow d~ring
=he 1969 floods. The effectivenoes of the levee can be seen on
aerial and topographic maps already submitted in the record.
3. In my professional opinion, I have concluded that
removal of the levee and swale ~ystem (and the'construction uf a
residential development) will place both the new residents and
the existing residents downslope of the levee in substantially
greater risk of flooding and debri~ flow than currently exists
notwithstanding the existence of the Deer Creek Debris Basin
upslope. I base this conclusion on the following ~actors.
HC3q;44~l.PO~
16,.'1112~07
08/20/97 RHN:etl
(a) The Debris Basin wa~ designed to withstand a
5.0 magnitude earthquake. Attached are excerp~ from the Army
Corps' design memoranda for the Debris Basin. mSubsequent studies
conducted by the Southern California Earthquake Center ("SCEC")

realistically produce a 7.0 or greater magnitude earthquake. I
have reviewed the declaration of Dr. Thomas Benyey, Ph.D,
Director of the SCEC and this declaration has been submitted in
the record for your cunmideraCion.
(b) The volume capacity of the. Debris Basin was
based upon the Tatumme=hod developed in 1963 by the Los Angeles
A~y Corps of Engineers. The Corps published updated criterion
for Debris Basin design in 1992 which could significantly change
the design volume. Based upon my own personal~observations and
these new standards, the Debris Basin appears ~o be undersized.
This is another post-1990 changed circumstance!that must be
considered.
HCH24z,]1.P02
163112407
{c) In 1994, WEST Consultants performed a study
of the Barrow Debris Basin in the City of Glendora, County of Los
Angeles. I was direcnly involved in that proj6cU. The Barrow
basin overtopped during the 1969 flood, which at this location
was a ten year precipitation even~ approximatel~ one year after a
b~rn. Although the available volume of the Debris' Basin was
adequate, computations showed that the "runup"~of ~he debris due
to momen=uxn was approximately ten feet, causing the debris to go
over the spillway b~ four feet which, in turn, ~plugged the
downs=ream concrete channel resulting in overtqpping of the
Debris Basin and substantial damage to downstream property.
The Deer creek Debris Sasin has similar watershed basin slope
characteristic of the Harrow Debris Basin. Th~ spillway crest is

cleanup, according to =he plans) is at approximately 2845. About
25% of the volume from small events is allowed-to fill before
clean out is required. This would allow the manerial to fill up
to about elevation 2850. If an event sim/lar co the Harrow Debris
Basin event occurred, the debris would go over!the spillway by
three feet. The downstream channel w~s designed based upon
"clear" water and debris in the water would significantly
decrease the capacity and spill over or cause it to plug up
cornpie=elV also causing it to spill over.
16111~0F
08/20/97 MHM;S~I
(d) In the 1950s, the local ~lOod control agency
constructed a series of swales and levees designed to slow the
debris flows and ccnve~ them to a controlled outlet point. The
flood of 1969 caused a debris torrent which was largely
controlled by the levees and swales. The levee and swale system
protected the area.and the homes dowllslope o~ the levee. The
developer intends to remove this levee and use~the spoil to fill
in the swales. Although ~he levee and swales were built before
the construction of the Debris Basin, the Arm~=Corps considered
them aB an integral par~ of the project and recommended that
material that would accumulate in ~he Debri~ Basin actually be
used to fortify =he levee. Removal of ~he swales and levee8
would weaken the protective nature of the Corp~ Debris Basin
project. I also understand that the developer ]claims tha~ the
levee is no longer effective because o~ a approximately 200
breach aU the top of Paddock Road. This is a small fraction of
the overall levee and can easily be repaired and has minimal

and the swale system to provide secondary protection to the
aowaslope residents.
(e) Tom Sheahan, a registered geologist,
certified hydrogeologiet. and principal of Dames & Moore, has
identified two potential landslide areas exceeding 100 acres that
are adjacent to the Deer Creek Debris Basin spillway. If these
elides become active, they would bypass the Debris Basin and go
~nhindered to downslope areas that currently are protected by the
levee and swale system. This would be Darticuiarly dangerous for
the proposed new homes to be built on the 8ameilocation as the
levee and swales once the levee is destroyed and is equally
dangerous to existing homes.
4. The seriousness of this matter should not be
t~nored by the City. The damage to l~fe and p~operty in the
event of~a debris flow is serious. Given the ~hanged
circumstanoes described above {earthquake magnitudes and new
debris basin design criteria), the City must require further
study and mitigation measurerB prior to placin~ its citizens at
ri~k.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing
is true and correct and that this declaration is signed at
Portland, Oregon on August 20, 1997.

SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATION OF DAVID T. WILLIAMS, PH.D., P.E.
1. I am the president of WEST Consultants, inc.. a San Diego based
water resources engineering firm. I received a B.S. degree in Civil Engineering from
the University of California, Davis. and an M.S. in Environmental Civil Engineering at
the same university. I also received a Ph.D. in Hydraulics and Sedirnentatlon from
Colorado State University. I am a fellow of the American Society of Civil Engineers,
an adjunct professor at San Diego State University in the Civil Engineering
Department, a certffied Professional Hydrologist, a Certified professional in Erosion
and Sediment Control (C.p:,ESC), and a California registered professional Civil
Engineer. I have over 25~'~ears of experience in water resources, with a specialty in
flood hazard evaluation. I currently supervise over 20 engineers who conduct flood
related studies for the Army Corps of Engineers, California Department of
Transportation, and Federal Emergency Management Agency. I am familiar with the
Corps of Engineers' procedures as I was employed by the Corps for approximStelY 15
years. I am also familiar with FEMA regulations as i teach FEMA remapping
procedures as part of a course on hydraulics engineering for the American Society of
Civil Engineers. I authored the Reservoir Sedimentation Chapter in the U,S. Corps of
Engineers Manual on Sedimentation investigation and the HEC-6 user's manual for
the Army Corps Hydrologlc Engineedncj Center. I previously submitted e declaration
to the City of Rancho Cucamonga on August 20. 1997, concluding that new
information not available to the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, Los Angeles (ACOE)
at the time the Deer Creek Debris Basin ("Debris Basin") was constructed
necessitates e serious safety review before the secondarY containment levee is
28

S9/'15/1998 21:13 213-688-3927 LOEB
1 removed. This new information included the existence of landslide areas above the
2 Debris Basin channel that were net identified or addressed by the ACOE at the time
3 of the Dabfie Basin Construction. Further, the magnitude of the Cucamonga Fault.
4 which runs virtually beneath the Debris Basin and directly under the channel, is
5
significantly higher than the ACOE's projections when The Debris Basin wile designed.
6
I base these conclusions upon my review of the original Design Memorandum
7
8 developed by the ACOE in connection with the Debris Basin, which is too voluminous
9 to attach and which is available to your staff. The statements made in my original
10 declaration are incorporated by reference.
11 2. This declaration is made in support of Cucamongans United for
12
Reasonable Expansion (CURE) challenge to the Lauren Development Project. I have
13
personally visited the Debris Basin, the adjacent levee, and the property down slope
'14
15 of the Debris Basin. Based upon my significant experience with hydraulics and
16 sediment transport, which spans over 25 years, I have concluded that removal of the
17 existing secondary levee and construction of homes in its location places future and
18 existing home owners in danger. Therefore. I urge the City Council to hire qualified
19 Debris Basin experts to thoroughly evaluate the vulnerability of the Debris Basin prior
20
to approving the Project.
21
3. The volume capacity of the Debris Basin for the design event was
22
23 I:msed upon the .Taturn Method, which was developed in 1963 by the U.S. Army
24 Corps of Engineers, Los Angeles. Subsecluent to the construction of the Debris
25 Basin, the ACOE updated the Method and released the publication entitled "Los
26
Angeles District Method for Prediction of Debris Yield," in February 1992 (revised in

I August 1992) a copy of which is attached as Exhibit "A". Since the 1963 publicaljon,
2 23 years of additional flood information (and resulting debris production) was
3 c.,ollected and used to update the coefficients of the debris production equations in the
4 1992 publications. Significant floods have occurred since 1963 which provide
5 important information; in padicular, the floods of November 1965. January 1969, and
6
February 1978. In statistical analysis. when large events occur, the information
7
8 gathered is used to update a frequency study, i.e., the relationship of how frequent a
9 certain phenomenon such as debris discharge occurs, as the information can change
10 drastically. For example. suppose a 50 year flood event produces 10.000 cubic yards
11 of debds using frequency analysis based upon measurements evaliable prior to 1963,
12 Subsequently, three signfficant flood events occurred with the resulting debris
13 production measured and used to update the frequency relationshiP. Using the
14
15 updated frequency relationship, the 10.000 cubic yards of debris would now be
16 related to a more frequent event, for example, a 20 year flood event. in turn. the
17 debds production of a 50 year flood event would be higher than the original 10,000
18 cubic yards. Based on the new information and statistical analysis, the debris basin
no longer provides the original design level of protection; in actuality, there is a
greater dsk than originally anticipated, When the volume capacity is exceeded during
a flood event. the debris torrent goes up and over the basin spillway and can overtop
and tax the embankments that are on each side of the spillway. Since the channel
downstream of the spillway is designed for "clear" water, this debris torrent can easily
overwhelm the channel. overflow into the adjacent area, and subsequently damage
the property and endanger the lives of the people down slope of the debris basin.

4. The above phenomenor~ occurred at many locations in the San
Gabriel Mountain Range in 1969. The Deer Creek Oebds Basin similarly is located in
the San Gabriel MOuntains. To protect down slope and future homeowners in
Rancho Cur.,amonge, a qualified engineer with IPebds Basin experience must re-
compute the design capacity based upon the updated information and check it
against the aGtual capacity of the Debris Basin just before maintenance excavation is
performed. This analysis has not been conducted by the ACOE, the San Bernardino
County Rood Control District, FEMA. the City Engineer. nor Lauren Oevelopment's
consultants. Without such an analysis, the City is placing its families in the same
position as those who were caught in Debris Flow down slope of other San Gabriel
Mountain Basins that failed.
5. Another phenomenon for which the Debris Basin was not
designed is what is termed as "run up" over the spillway, Because of the steepnose
of Cucamonga Peak, the area just upstream of the Debris Basin, a debris torrent
'entering the Debds Basin will have extremely high velocities. Even If the Debris
Basin has adequate volume capacity, which is seriousiy in question, the debris
torrent, by virtue of its high velocity. can have enough momentum to "run up" the
approach slope of the spillway and overtop it. As a result of the property damage
and loss of life in 1965, 1969 and 1978, the Los Angeles County Department of
Public Works requked an analysis of "run up" for one of their Debris Basins before
permitting development of the area down slope of the basin. 'Attached as Exhibit "B"
is a copy of the American Society of Engineers (ASCE) paper entitled "Overtopping
Prevention of the Harrow Debris Basin in Los Angeles County," presented at the
ASCE Water Resources Engineering 98 conference, which documents the analysis.
8
LOf..t5 ~! uuc= v,~,-,.,- ....
21; 13 213-~,88-3927
In this paper, the Harrow Debris Basin was deemed to have adequate volume
2 capacity (50 year design flood) when a 10 year flood event caused the basin to
3 overtop by a combination of debris volume loss and "run up" phenomenon. This
4 overtopping caused the downstream channel to "plug up" and spill onto the adjacent
5 land, causing damage to the property down slope of the debris basin. The Harrow
6 Debris Basin is uncomfortably similar to the Deer Creek Debris Basin since it is along
7
8 the same side of the San Gabriel Mountain Range. The similarities are supported by
9 the fact that the 1992 ACOE debds method showed high correlation between debris
10 yield and watershed parameters when analyzing the area that encompasses both
11 Deer Creek and Harrow Oebds Basins. Such an analysis has not been performed by
t 2 the ACOE, the San Bernardino County Flood Control District, FEMA, the City
13 Engineer nor Lauren Development's consultants. Evaluating the "run up" capacity of
14
15 the Deer Creek Debris Basin is a critical step that must be undertaken by the City
16 prior to placing its residents at risk by approving the Lauren Development project.
17 6. In light of the previously mentioned concerns, a complete safety
18 and impa~ Study should be performed on the Deer Creek Debris Basin, its
19 downstream channel, and potential effects of the down slope areas. This study is
20 recommended due to the seriousness of the potential damage to life and property. I
21 should also emphasize that the perimeter levee proposed to be removed was rated
22
23 by FEMA to a 100 year flood event in 1983. Attached is correspondence from FEMA
24 to the Mayor of Rancho Cucamonga dated September 4, 1997, confirming this fact. I
25 previously testified that the small breech in the levee can be easily repaired and does
26 not detract from FEMA's rating. An earthen levee can be easily maintained.

DECLARATION OF BRUCE COLLINS'
I, Bruce Collins, declare and state as follows:
1. I am a Senior Engineer at Dames .& Moore, one of
the largest geotechnical firms in the world. I have a Bachelor
of Sciences Degree in Civil Engineering and graduate studies in
hydrotogy from the University of California and waste water
treatment from Oklahoma State University. In my over 35 years as
an engineer I have had extensive experience on flood control and
drainage issues. I was project hydrologist and facilities design
engineer for developing a comprehensive master plan for flood
control and storm drainage for metropolitan Reno. Also, I was
project manager of the Major Urban Studies Plan for Metropolitan
Spokane Water Resources and Flood Control, Seattle District, Army
Corps of Engineers. The statements made herei~ are in support cf
the opposition of Cucamongans United for Reasonable Expansion
("CURE") to the Lauren Development Project. The statements made
are of my own personal knowledge and, if called as a witness, I
would and could testify to the truth thereof.
2. On June 10, 1997, I performed a site inspection
and evaluation of the Deer Creek alluvial fan [erimeter drainage
containment levee. Lauren Development is proposing to remove a
substantial section of the drainage swale and embankment which

The Perimeter Swale and Levee.Are Still valuable Flood
Protection St. ructures.
3. I~ has been presumed by Lauren Developmen~ That
the construction of the Deer Creek Debris Basin'and doncreTe
channel has rendered the perimeter containment swale and
embankment obsolete, thus rendering its removallas no consequence
to local drainage. This presumption fails to recognize the
benefit of this perimeter containment drainage structure which is
supplementary to the Deer Creek Basin that serves to concentrate
the surface water flow of Deer Creek and direct:it into a
Concrete channel. p~sp~e._the Deer Creek Basin~, home owner~ and
~de~s O~ .~b~..Q~he~ side of the swale and levee would be
siqnificantlv less safe if the levee is to be b~eached and if the
drainage swale is filled in.
· The Perimeter Swale and Levee PrOV~de!$~condary Flood
and Drainage Containment.
4. In assessing the value and benefits Zo the
residents of RC-V/Maven View Estates provided by the perimeter
swale and levee, it should be recognized that the Deer Creek
Debris Basin only collects and directs surface water into the
concrete drainage channel and that there is a substantial
quantity of subsurface flow through the alluvial fan and surface
drainage originating below the basin now being intercepted by the
perimeter swale and levee. An inspection of the Deer Canyon
debris dam site and adjacent area indicates ~hat the debris dam
has no signiEicant storage capacity -- a maximum depth of the
retention basin being a depth of 15-18 feet at the low flow
intake strutcure. The spillway disctlar~es to a. lined concrete

rectangular channel which conveys flow down across the alluvial
fan which spreads across the Deer Creek-Day Creek break in slope
as these waterways come out of the steeper mountainous terrain
above. Addinionally, approximately 200 acres of land below the
debris basin are tributary no the perimeter ditch and levee. ~
spoke to Mr. Ray Lenaburg of FEMA's San FrancisCo office. The
PEMA Zoning is now dependent on the levee's existence.
Mr. Lenaburg states that the developer would ha~e ~o prove tkat
the perimeter swale/levee is no longer essential1 to providing the
100-year flood level of protection. This proof. would have to
include the complex hydrologic evaluation of surface water runoff
non intercepted by the debris basin and the potential for
artesian resurfacing of flow through the alluvial fan.
· Seismic Vulnerability Should Be ~ecocmi~ed.
5. In addition, the existing levee and perimeter
swale provide an even more significant benefit ~as a "last diEch"
containment barrier in the event of potential failure of the Deer
Creek Debris Basin and surface flow interception structure due to
damage from an earthquake. In this regard, it ishould be clearly
recognized that virtually all structures in SoUthern California
are subject to earthquake damage vulnerability,i but that in
particular there has been recent redelination o.f a significant
fault line in very close proximity ~o the debris basin, This
higher level of seismic risk may not have been .considered and is
a factor that must be evaluated now, in light of more detailed
data from recent seismic studies in this area.

For the above significant drainage and seismic reasons,
retention of the perimeter swale/levee is of very significant
benefit to the adjacent downhill residents.
The Deer Canyon Basin does not function as a flood
retention reservoir as there is very little storage capacity in
the basin. Its primary function is to collect surface water at
the mouth of Deer Canyon and collect it into a concrete channel
which conveys this flow down to the larger tributaries in the
valley and ultimately into the Santa Ana River.
6. In conclusion, iE is the opinion~ of Dames & Moore
=hat the very significant benefit of the existing perimeter swale
and levee should be recognized and be given serious consideration
relative Co ~he permitting of development of land which migh~
seriously diminish the safety value of this "last ditch" of
protection to downstream residents. The proposed substitution
for the perimeter swale and levee by the construction of a
ditch as per Amended Tentative Map Section "A-A" is not an
adequate substitution or mitigation measure. It is our opinion
that this facility should be protected from breach, filling or
inadequate replacement.

April 2, 1999
Mr. David Freeman
Department of Water & Power
111 North Hope Street
Los Angeles, California 90017
Dear Mr. Freeman:
I am writing on behalf of the homeowners who oppose the removal of a 40-foot
high, 2000-foot long levee along Deer Creek in Rancho Cucamonga. For approximately
30 years, I worked at the Los Angeles County Flood Control District where I ultimately
was the ChiefEngineer where I served in that capacity from 1970 to I979. For about 16
years of that time, I held policy-making jobs in the flood control and sediment control
arenas of the organization. I have a civil engineering background with Bachelor and
Master's Degrees from Caltech.
At one time, I believed that the existence of a debris basin was enough to protect
people. Unfortunately, I witnessed firsthand what happens to debris basins in Los
Angeles County when there is a significant fire-flood sequence, and the severe damage to
life and property which results. Based upon my experience, I know that debris basins can
be overwhelmed, and therefore believe additional downslope protection is needed. The
existing 40' high levee at Deer Creek provides that additional protection.
Since the Deer Creek Debris Basin was designed by the Army Corps of Engineers
in the late 1960s, more severe sediment flow events have occurred than the basin was
designed to handle. I am personally familiar with the severe sediment overflows which
occurred twice in 1969, and again in 1978 in the northerly reaches of the San Femando
Valley in Los Angeles County. The terrain, vegetative cover, and meteorological factors
there are similar to those affecting the mountains containing Deer Canyon. Up to then,
Mr. David Freeman
Department of Water & Power
April 2, 1999,
Page two
the design of debris basins in Los Angeles County was based upon standards similar to
those used for Deer Canyon.
In the Fall of 1977, several watersheds in the mountains surrounding San
Fernundo Valley had completely burned. In February, 1978, after moderate rainfall had
occurred for more than twenty-four hours, terminating with short period (5- to 30-minute)
intensities having a 25- to 50-year recurrence interval, very severe sediment flows exited
from the burned watersheds. In one case, the amount of sediment was estimated to have
exceeded the capacity of the debris basin by 50%. In two cases, development had been
allowed to occur downstream of the basin in a manner which relied entirely upon the
adequacy of the facility. The damage to homes and infrastructure from overflowing
sediment was extensive. Many homes were damaged beyond repair.
Based upon this experience, I concluded that the design of development
downstream of a debris basin must include a protected facility to handle sediment
overflow that will occur in severe events beyond the design capacity of the facility. As a
matter of public policy, I believe that such secondary containment for development
downstream of debris basins is absolutely necessary. The alluvial cone feature so evident
at the foot of every canyon emanating from the San Gabriel and San Bernardino
Mountains, including Deer Canyon, is startling proof that massive fire-flood sequences
have happened in the past, and there is no reason to expect that they will not continue to
occur in the future.
The existing levee serves the purpose of collecting sediment/debris overflow now
on the westerly side of the Deer Canyon Channel in the reach below the debris basin. If
all or a portion of the levee and swales are removed for any reason, it must be replaced
with an adequate facility serving the same purpose. The 3' x 6' trapezoidal channel that
the developer proposes to partially build on property controlled by the Los Angeles
Department of Water and Power is not intended to capture debris and is not such a
structure.
Since the Department would be allowing the developer to remove portions of the
levee and fill in the swales on its property, the Department could expose itself, and the
City of LOs Angeles, to significant liability when a debris overflow occurs. Because
debris flows do not happen on a regular basis, many people are not familiar with just how
devastating they can be.

DECLARATION OF N: THOMAS SHE~HAN,
R.G.. R. GP., C.E.G.. C.HG.
I, N. Thomas Sheahan, declare and state as follows:
1. I am a vice-president and Principal Hydrol0gist at Dames & Moore.
I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Geology and Geography from the University of
Missouri, a Certificate in Advanced Groundwater Hydrology:: from the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology (MIT), and a Juris Doctor degree !from the University of
La Veme. I am a Registered Geologist, Registered Geophysic!st, Certified Engineering
Geologist and Certified Hydrogeologist in California, and I aml admitted to practice law
in the State of California. Attached hereto is a true and correc!~ copy of my Curriculum
Vitae. This declaration, like the previous testimony I provided to the City of Rancho
Cucamonga Planning Commission, is made in support of Cucamongans United for
Reasonable Expansion ("CURE") challenge to the Lauren Devel'.opment residential project.
I have personally inspected the area in the vicinity of the Deer Creek Basin, Deer Creek
Channel, and the existing levee and swale system, and have reviewed technical doctwnents
regarding the geological, geotechnical, and hydrogeological asp~.cts of this area. I am not
a party to this action. The statements made herein are of my own personal knowledge,
and if called as a witness, I would and could testify to the truth thereof. I will be
available to testify and respond to questions at the August 20, 1997 Hearing.
2. I previously testified and will testify again tO the following opinions.
The removal of the levee and swale system creates significanl~ additional risk to down
slope property and residents. The levee and swale system withstood the 1969 floods, the

largest flooding event in 30 years. Exhibit "A" is a copy of a Map reflecting the impact
of the 1969 flood on the area, and the protection afforded by the levee and swale system.
Aerial photographs also graphically demonstrate that the levee .was virtually unbreached
despite significant water and debris flow.
3. Removal of the levee and swales is particularly unwarranted in light
of new information that calls into serious question the integrity of the Deer Creek Debris
Basin. As I testified previously, two potential landslide areas exceeding 100 acres exist
in the hills just to the east, and outside the catchment area, of the Debris Basin. If these
landslides should be m-activated for a~y reason (quakes, heavy rains, or bums resulting
in hydraphobic soil conditions), the Debris Basin Spillway Channel will not hold this
much debris and the debris will fill the channel causing the remainder to continue to flow
southerly toward the existing levee. Dr. David Willjams, Ph.D, an expert in Debris Basin
design, shares this opinion and has provided a declaration toi the City Council. Any
overtopping of the Debris Basin places in serious jeopardy thei new Lauren homes and,
if the levee and swales are removed, places the existing homes downslope of the existing
Ievee in serious jeopardy, also.
4. Other important changed circumstances concerning the integrity of the
Deer Creek Debris Basin include the new (1996) information from the Southem California
Earthquake Center ("Center") on the probable earthquake magnitude of the Sierra Madre-
Cucamonga Thrust Fault which passes through, or very close t0, the ba~e of the Debris
Basin, and crosses the spillway channel. The Army Corps. originally designed the Debris
Basin in 1980 to withstand a 5.0 quake. According to the Declaration of Dr. Thomas
Sent by: LOEB & LOEB
213 688 3460j 11/03/99 3:34PMj].tlf_j&_#985jPage 15/19
Henyey, Ph.D, Director of the SCEC., James Dolan of the Center trenched the Cucamonga
fault in 1996 and concluded that the probable magnitude was as high as 7.5. An
earthquake of this magnitude would result in significantly more damage than the Army
Corps originally estimated in 1980.
5. Additionally, Dr. David Williams has testified that the Debris Basin
design is now obsolete, and that new design criteria was developed in the 1990s to
improve the integrity of debris basins. He concludes "Based upon my own personal
observations and these [Army Corps] new standards, the Debris Basin appears to be
undersized. This is another post-1990 changed circumstance that must be considered."
Willjams Declaration at Paragraph 2(b) at page 3.
6. I have reviewed a geoteclmical analysis performed by RMA Group
CRMA"), consultants fbr Lauren Development, that purports: to compare the relative
safety of the levee and swale system to Lauren Development~s replacement berrn and
channel. RMA's conclusions are misleading and incorrect for s..Cveral important reasons.
In each of the instances discussed below, P,.MA elected to use: dift~rent factors for the
replacement berm and concrete channel than the factors which they applied to the levee.
Had they compared "apples to apples" instead of their skewed analysis comparing "apples
to oranges" the results would be significantly different: the calculated safety factors for
the levee would be higher and the safety factors for the proposed replacement berm would
(a)
be lower.
RMA utilized a higher water table for the levee than for the
berm without any explanation for this discrepancy.
Such an approach artificially

increased the load on the levee.
the two structures.
(b)
Calculations must be equalized to truly evaluate
RMA reduced the total load of soil ~on the replacement berm
and levee by removing the quantity of dirt in the concrete channel. In the levee,
they conveniently have added an earthen bluff that increases the soil load. Again,
no justification or explanation exists for adding the bluff-
(c) In attempting to find the most critical failure surface for
the replacement channel, RMA should have provided a gr. eater range for the
downhill and uphill extent of the failure surface, as they did fbr the levee
analysis. By using a larger range, RMA would likely have found a more
critical failure surface, thereby reducing the safety factor calculated for the
replacement berm. Instead, RMA used a small range for the berm. On the
levee, however, it used a broader range. Again, unless the assumptions are
equal, the entire comparison is flawed.
(d) RMA used a steeper water-table gradient for the levee that
ad~is water to the levee creating an additional load.
7. The replacement berm and channel is 20 feet high; the existing levee
is 40 feet high which is 100 percent higher. Further, RMA has not evaluated the integrity
of the levee relative to the overall velocity reducing swale system which also will be
destroyed. The levee and swales are an integrated whole and must be considered as such.
8- There are several significant defects in RMA's replacement berm
designs.

06/2D/97' ~H,:cOl
The safety factor of 1.40 is not enough. Static minimum design is
usually 1.5. Based upon the findings of the SCEC, RMA has not used the
appropriate earthquake standards. RMA used a 0. 1 5 coefficient, however, a 0.30
or 0.40 should have been used, because acceleration due to a 7.5 magnitude
earthquake on the Cucamonga Fault (the extent of jolt when the quake occurs) is
probably 0.5 to 0.7. Thus, the true ground acceleration may be four times higher
than what RMA used. If that had been taken into account, that is, a higher
earthquake load coefficient, the safety factor for the replacement berm would be
significantly lower.
9. My conclusion, based upon the above, is that the Developer has not
introduced any credible, non-biased, scientific evidence to establish that the berm and
channel are sufficient mitigation to removal of the levee. Moreover, RMA has not, and
cannot, state that the berm and replacement channel can handle the volume of Debris Flow
and flooding that would occur if the Debris Basin failed. once again, the 40+ year old
levee has a demonstrated record of withstanding the most serious flood of the past several
decades.
10. I have reviewed materials from RMA and from the Hewill and
McGuire firm that indicated that the levee is no longer effective because of a minor
breach at the top of Paddock Street. Ihis is very deceiving. The entire levee is several
thousand feet long; the area of breach is only about 200 feet. Moreover, any breach can
be easily corrected (and should have been corrected) by the ~property owner. These
arguments arc red herrings without any technical basis.

levee was breached in 1969 is easily rebutted by simply looking at the topographic maps
and aerial photographs attached for your information. Had the levee not been in place,
it is obvious that all of the structures beneath the levee would have been seriously
damaged in the 1969 flood.
11. It is my professional opinion that the [evec and swale systems
continue to keep the people and property downslope of the levee safe from flooding and
debris flows. Removal of the levee and swale system increases the risk of damage to
property and to the families in the area. The trapezoidal channel proposed as a substitute
does not provide protection.
12. The area at issue is zoned for open space and recharge. The Army
:
Corps of Engineers actually designated the subject property as a recharge area as part of
its overall Debris Basin project. For whatever reason, the San Bernardino County Flood
Control District has not implemented the Army Corps' recharge mitigation measures.
The Debris Basin was designed with a tbur-foot pipe at the ~tower inlet to allow for
releases of water into the area. This is one of several water-release valves which I
understand the Flood Control District intends to shut off due to the Lauren Development
and other proposed developments. The elimination of potentiatly thousands of acre feet
of recharge water on an annual basis potentially reduces the quantity of groundwater
available to the Cucamonga Water Agency and the San Antonio~ Heights Water Agencies
in the event that their allocation in the basin is reduced. As is generally known,
California is facing a federal requirement to reduce its allocation of waters from the
Colorado River. Groundwater (particularly groundwater recharged from mountain

streams) is of higher quality and is less expensive than water imported from other areas.
As matters stand now, it is my understanding that the City is permitting the reduction of
recharge areas without coordinating with local water agencies of the Regional Water
Quality Control Board. The failure to implement the Army Corps' recharge mitigation
measures is a post-1990 changed circumstance that must be considered.
13. For all of the above reasons, including the changed circumstances
described above, a full environmental impact report and careful study. of the subject
project is necessary to protect the health and safety of the public and to protect valuable
water resources in the area.

2. One of the most pressing and critical issues facing seismic baT~rd
planners in the southern California metropolitan region concerns the size and frequency
of earthquakes along the Sierra Madre-Cucarnonga thrust fault. This 60-mile long,
northward-dipping fault system is responsible for the uplift of the San Gabriel
Mountains. Attached as Exhibit B is a true and correct copy of a map prepared by Dr.
James Dolan CDolan") of USC showing active faults in southern California. Of
specific interest shown on attached Exhibit B is the Sierra Madre-Cucamonga fault
system, and a recent trench site on the Cucamonga fault where data about the
frequency and magnitude of earthquakes on the Cucamonga fault was collected by
Dolan in June of 1996. The Sierra Madre-Cucarnonga fault system is relatively
continuous and many scientists believe it has the potential to rupture from end to end
or along much of its length. The region on the earth's surface thati lies over this fault
is depicted as the green area in the upper panel of attached Exhibit~ C. Other colors
depict other thrust faults (some less certain than others), but it can be seen that much
of the Los Angeles greater metropolitan area sits over a network of these active faults.
The SCEC, which was founded in 1991 and is based at USC, has funded studies to
gain a better und~n'standing of the earthquake potential of the Sierr~i Madre-Cucamonga
fault system to determine how frequently earthquakes occur along the fault and how
large they will be.
3. One important way to study the fault's earthquake potential is to
identify places where the fault intersects the eanh's surface -- referred to as the fault

trace and identified on maps as the fault line -- and to dig trenches across it. The fault
and the layers of rock that have been offset by the fault during pre-historic earthquakes
can be seen on the walls of the trench. This line of investigatior~ is called
paleoseismology. Attached as Exhibit D is a mapping of one wall Of the Cucamonga
Fault trenched by Dolan in 1996 which shows fault lines and offsetslayers. The
amount of offset can be measured and in many cases the age of the. layers can be
determined by using radiocarbon dating to indicate when the offset;. i.e., when the
earthquake occurred. Often more than one offset is observed whiel~ reflects a number
of past events. Many studies of earthquakes in California and around the world tell us
that the amount of offset is proportional to earthquake size. For example, an offset of
one meter corresponds to about a magnitude 6, while an offset of about tbxee meters
corresponds to a magnitude 7. While the offset of a magmitude 7 is. only a few times
that of a 6, the energy released by a 7 is thirty times more than that of a 6 and si._~x
times more than a 6.5. :~
4. Prior to 1991, there were no paleoseismology studies !of the Sierra
Madre-Cucamonga fault. Since then, there have been two such studies of the Sierra
Madre section of the system between Altadena and A2.usa, and one on the Cucanmnga
section just east of Day Canyon Wash 'shown on attached Exhibit E,' All three studies
suggest that earthquakes on this fault system are likely to be in the magnitude 6 to 7.5
range. The trenching done in June 1996 on one strand of the Cucamonga section

and 7. These magnitudes are significantly greater than past earthquakes (magnitudes 4
to 5) reported to have occurred along this section of fault.
5. The Cucamonga fault strands are shown as barbed and dotted lines on
attached Exhibit F, and as solid and dotted lines on attached Exhibi$ G (the dotted
lines are where the location of the fault is less certain due to poor exposure). Attached
Exhibit G shows that the mapped fault trace may pass through, or v. ery close to, the
~base of the debris basin and the spillway. Earthquakes in the magnitude 4 to 5 range
would not be expected to break the earth's surface and cause damage to the dam,
whereas earthquakes greater than magnitude 6 to 6.5 will almost always break the
surface and likely will displace portions of the dam. Also, the ground shaking for the
larger events would be considerably greater than for the smaller events.
6. The Cucamonga fault in this area consists of at least three sub-parallel
strands. The three strands can be seen as lines with barbs in the red region on the
fight-hand side of attached Exhibit F. If offsets take place concurrehtly on more than
one strand during an earthquake, then the total offset could be considerably larger than
estimated from the June 1996 trench alone, and thus the magnitude could be greater
than 7.0. For example, offsets on parallel strands were observed d~ing the 1971 San
Fernando earthquake at the far westem end of the Sierra Madre segment. (Note: The
various parallel strands of range-front faults such as the Sierra Madre-Cucamonga are
not always recognized, or disappear, at the surface in high energy etlvironments such

as on active alluvial fans, in major drainages, or where man has altered the terrain.
This is not only a problem lbr paleoseismology studies as noted above, but also is a
concern when developing rage-front property in that City Planners must be careful to
identify active strands using careful surface observations, trenching, and/or remote
sensing [subsurface imaging] techniques so as not to construct across them. We also
know from the 1994 Northridge earthquake, and in retrospect from ihe 1971 San
Fernundo earthquake, that ground shaking can be very extreme on the upthrown side
of a thrust fault) which could be the situation on the Cucamonga Fault.
7. Finally, determining how long it has been since the last quake is an
important factor in evaluating probabilities. It has been estimated that if the entire
Sierra Madre~Cucamonga fault normally broke in repeated earthquakes, it should do so
approximately every 1000 years (the recurrence interval) and be a magnitude 7.4. If
the Cucamonga section broke independently it should do so about every 400 years
and be a magnitude 6.9. And if only sections of the Cucamonga fault broke, major
earthquakes might range between magnitude 6 and 6.9. So if the d~ite of the last
earthquake were known, the date of the next event could be estimated from the
recurrence interval under the assumption that successive events always have the same
characteristic size -- a very uncertain assumption in many scientists':i minds because
earthquakes are not always characteristic nor do they occur with regularity. Since the
historic record, which begins in about I800 in southern California, sihows no major

Biographical Sketch
Dr. Henyey joined USC in 1968 as an Assistant Professor, and was promoted to Full Professor in
1981. His major research interests include the mechanics of fault zones and the structure of the
continental crust. His Ph.D. work at Caltech and early research at the University of Southern
California dealt with the thermomechanics of the San Andteas fault and the thermal regime of
southwestern North America. Heat-flow observations were used to estimate the magnitude of shear
stress on the San Andrcas fault. Later thermal studies were a plied to teetome pwblems of the
and evolution in southwe. stem U.S., and more recently in New Zealand. He was coordinator for the
CALCRUST consortlure which acquired and processed seismic reflection data from a number of
areas in southern California and Anzona. Most recently he has become principal investigator for
major geophysical transects across the Transverse Ranges in southern California and the Southern
A!I~ in New Zealand.
In 1991, after chairinS the Department of Geological Sciences at USC for 2 years, Henyey
assumed the role of Executive Director of the Southern California Earthquake Center -- a new NSF
Science and Technology Center with primary funding from the NSF and the USGS, and
supplemental funding from FEMA, Caltmns and the County and City of Los Angeles. In this
position, he assisted K. Aki, the Science Di~,~tor in coordinating a program focused on earthquake
hazard analysis and knowledge transfer in southe~ California involving more than 50 scientists at
several institutions. With the resignation of Aki as of Jan. 31, 1996, Henyey was asked by the Board
of Directors to assume the position of Center Director which he now occupies. Henyey has been on
numerous national panels dealing with earthquake issues, and a consultant to the geothermal
industry, state and local government, and the port of Los Angeles on earthquake hazards.

AFFIDAVIT OF JAMES GOODRIDGE
State of California
County of Mendoclno
I, JAMES GOODRIDGE, declare and state as follows:
1. I worked for the California Department of Water Resouces for 30 years.
From 1978 to 1983, I served as the State CIImatologls./, An important
part of my work was in developing procedures for analyzing rain
records Ior hydraulic design used by the Division of Dams and for the
design of stormwater culverts by Caltrans.
2. My approach to design storms is one based on actual records of rainfall
and dream flow rather than third party works such as those published
by the National Oceanic and Almospheric Adminldration maps of
County Flood Control maps, By relying on actual records, I use the
most up-to-date data sets for flood studies. The use of recent data is
irrgmrtant because of the upward trend in flood produci~g rainfalls In
the last several decades as described in Impact of Climatic Variation On
Flood Coni~o/Planning in California attached as Exhibit A. i have
compiled rainfall depth duration frequency data on several thousand
California weaffier records,
3. The stream-flow records I used for the evaluation of the Deer Creek
Watershed are from the United States Geological Survey as published
on CDROM by Earthlnfo inc. The rain records primarily were from
Climatologica/Data, a monthly publication of the National Climatic Data
Center. The rainfall records for this study also include records from the
San Bernamino County Flood Control District and the Los Angeles
County Public Works Department. These agencies have produced
carefully quality-controlled records that are broadly relied upon with
confidence for engineering design studies.
Attached as Exhibit B is a sample of the rain records rdied upon by this
study, The methods I use to analyze rain records are described in
Historic Rainstorms in California, published by the Department of Water
Resources.
To determine a design storm, I combine the results of many records in a
region to avoid the situation where a small sample unduly Influences
the outcome_ This is a method utilized by the State of California
Department of Water Resources and it is the procedure that has been
long recommended in Spillway safety studies. Such design storm
averaging is the approach used on Exhibit C Analysis of 3 Hour 5'torm
in Deer Canyon. This was developed further on Exhibit D a Suggested
Design Storm for 1 Day Storm on Deer Creek.
6. The average annual stream flow on Day and Cucamonga Creeks was
12.3 and 10.8 inches per year. This suggests that Deer Canyon runoff
was about 12 inches per year based on the similar orlentaiton of Day
Creek and Deer Wash and in Interpolating between Day and Cucamonga
Creeks. There are no stream-flow measurements on Deer ~k. This
may be due to a lack of bedrock outcropping allowing measuring of
underflow of ground water along with surface water.
The consumptive use of native vegetation is between 20 to 30 inches
per year. Adopting a responsible stance by asstaming such consumptive
use to be 30 inches per year, the average annual rainfall on the Deer
canyon watershed would be approximately 42 inches per year. The
year 3-hour storm from Exhibit B is 15 % of the mean annual
precipitation or 6.34 inches. The 100-year 3 hour storm is 16.8 % of the
mean annual precipitation or 7.06 inches. The 100-year 24-hour design
storm would be 50 % of the average annual rainfall or 21.02 inches,
! reviewed records covering the period 1929 to 1972 on Day Creek, the
stream draining Cucamonga Peak immediately to the east of Deer
Canyon. Attached as Exhibit E are copies of those records from the
United States Geological Survey, The average annual flow at Day Creek
is 12.36 inches per year over the watershed. It varied from 112 inches in
1969 to a low of .76 inches in 1961. A most significant measurement
was 33 inches of runoff in one day on January 26, 1969. The peak flow
on January 25, 1969 in Day Greek was 9460 cubic feet per second. This
translates to 2083 cubic feet per second per square mile. The 33 inches
in one day is the highest rainfall I have ever observed in my 50 years of
reviewing rainfall records.
Stream-flow measurements are made in cubic feet (or cubic meters) per
second. I have divided the flow volumes by the drainage area so that
visualize the rainfall and runoff patters. 4070 cubic feet is 8070 or 96,8~;0
acre inches. 96,900 acre inches divided by 4.58 square miles or 2931
acres is 33.04 inches of runoff in one day- I know of no daily California
rainfall ~at is higher. Day Creek and Cucamonga Creeks also had very
large floods on March 2, 1938.
10. I have reviewed excerpts from the Army Corps of Engineers Design
Memorandum for Cucamonga Creek which indicate that the Army
Corps calculated that the 200-year storm for Deer Canyon was 3.27
inches over three 'hours, This calculation is substantially less than the
100-year storm based upon the actual rain guage records which would
not have been available to the Corps in the 19608 and 10108. Under any
circumstances, 3.27 inches Is substantially less than my estimate of the
7.06 inches for the 100-year 3-hour storm :or Deer Canyon.
I declare Under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct and
that this Affidavit was executed by me on the 1'* day of November 1999 in
Mendocino, California.

Impact of Climate Variation
On Flood Control Planning in California
By Jim Goodridge
Box 750
Mendocino CA 95460
Prepared for the 1999 Califomia Weather Symposium
Sierra College, Rocklin CA, June 26, 1999
Abstract
lfthe rainfall climate were a stationary time series. oct 50-year period would be as
good as any other for defining flood threats. This is not the 'reaE~-. The more recent 50 years is
considerably wetter than the previous 50 years with impor, an{ lessons for flood control
planning.
Rainfall dam of the last 100 years were examined on several scales ifsWnn dinlion
for long term trends, These included the maximum one-day, r. en and thirty consecutive days
and the annual total rain. On each time scale there is a notable =crease in rain in the last half of
the records.
Flood control planners need to have current and reliable hydrologic records to forecast
~rending flooding potential. Engineering design feeds off the rhn sets that are compiled for
current weather and flood forecasting; but with an added ~ of needing well-documented
and long historic records. Knowledge of both the historic scene as well as data trends are
critical to understanding flood threala.
The realities of climatic variation need be rooted in ~Tvation. The increased
climate variation in California j~ related to sea stirface temp,n-~_ac and ocean currents. Forces
associated with ocean currents and upwelling are examined. T~'~ir impacls on both rainfall and
temperaran lends are studied. These forces include Solar ~ variations and thcrmohalinc
cycle invigomtion and length of day variations.
The impact of observed c!irna;e variation on older flood ccnlrol projects is that based
on current hydrologic records they are undersized for their intended level of protection.
Why is the weather changing? We have lived with ;he concept of climate as a
stationary time series since Dr. Rcichelderfer's time. It's time for a fresh look. The some
of weather and climate is solar energy. The reality of clim~.'c variation has to be rooted in
observation.
Solar radiation has been measured at ground level for many years. The energy
output of the Sun is about 1366 Watts per square meter at the top of the atmosphere.
Clouds and water vapor reduce this energy at ground level by 50 to 90 percent. Ground
surface measurements of ~lar energy trends are therefore rot helpful in assessing
FROM LATHAM & WATK!NS OC (WED)ll. 3'99 ig:20/ST,'Ig:18,,'NO, 4861487146 P 8
variation in solar output. The Smithsonian Institute supported nearly a hal f-century of
unsuccessful solar constant investigation at places like the top of Mount Whitney and
Table Mountain early this century. The ground bast solar energy measurements have an
accuracy at best of only a few percent.
The Solar Constant has been measured successfully from above the atmosphere
aboard orbiting satellites since 1978. These measurements have varied from 1365.6 to
1366.7 watts per square meter. The solar constant measurements were found to vary as the
Wolf Sunspot Numbers. The correlation coefficient between the Solar Constant and
sunspot numbers (r^2) is .9 indicating that 95 % of the variation in the solar constant is
described by sunspot numbers.
A solar constant index was developed for this study for the period 1700 to 2006.
NOAA estimated solar constant values from several satellites were used for 1977 to 1998.
Correlation was made with the measured sunspot numbers for 1770 to 1976 and from the
NASA projected of stmspot numbers for the 1999 to 2006 periods.
The solar constant has been the highest since 1770 in the recent 50 years (See
Figure I ). The additional heating on Earth from a higher solar constant can only cause a
greater evaporation from equatorial oceans, more atmospheric water and therefore more
clouds. More evaporation means a higher salt concentration on the surface of the
equatorial oceans. A greater water density due to increased salt of the surface waters of the
equatorial oceans means an invigorated thermohaline cycle of Eanh's oceans (See Figure
2).
An invigorated thermohaline cycle results in more upwelling of cold ocean bottom
water of the Asian Coast at about latitude 40°N. This upwelling if real would be evident in
the sea surface temperatui-e pattern of the North Pacific Ocean. Figure 3 is a map ofthe
Pacific Ocean North of Latitude 20°. The main feature of a 5 l-year thermal history of the
North Pacific Ocean is a declining temperature trend. This covers the 51 years from 1947
to 1997. 'lhis temperature trend in the North Pacific varies from about -5°F per century
off the Japan Coast to +3 ° per century off the Central California Coast.
An invigorated thermohaline circulation could result in higher sea levels on the
California Coast that would reduce upwelling of cold water. The upwelling index of the
NOAA Marine Fishery group supports this concept as shown on Figure 4. The upwelling
index is actually computed on daily. This generates fir too much data to visualize long
term trends so the plots of Figure 4 are a nine-year nmning average of the annual
averages. The trend at 39°N and 125°W Shows a sharp peak in mid 1970's. The sea water
temperature at Bodega Bay is shown on Figure 5 with an upward trend of about 3°F per
100 years and a notable upward trend starting in 1971.
The San Diego records on Figure 7 illustrate a relationship between sea level and
air temperature. Nine-year averages of trend-adjusted sea level and trend adjusted air
temperature records look remarkably similar in their long-term trends.

Tropical storms represent the connective dissipation of heat of sea water over
about 80~F. WarneT sea surface teml~ratures mean an increase in the frequency af tropical
storms. Tropical storm frequency of the Eastern North Pacific ~ has increased from
about I0 per year to, about 18 per year over the last 50 years. The number of tropical
storms per year is shown on Hgure 6.
Air temperatures at coastal sites ate highly conclate4t with the sea surface
temperature as shown on Figure 8. The land based air temperatures at C_s_!,_'fornia stations
were correlated with the sea surface temperature at a five-degree grid point centered at
35'N and 125°W and shown on Figure 9. The areas of high correlation with sea surface
tempexamres are adjacent to the coas~inc. Interior valleys show little or no correlation of
air and seawater temperature.
The high sea surface temperatures could have influenced urban heat islands
studies, as most large California cities arc adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. The degree in
which the sea surface temperature influences the urban heat island studies dFigure 10
remains to be studied.
The annual total rain history of California has been modeled using 39 rain long-
term records that were complete for the period 1876 to 1998. These were averaged arc
plotted on Figure 11. There is an upward trend in this dam set The recent increase in wet
years iS evident since there were 6 years over 40 inches in the last half of the record and
only one in the tirst half. A nine-year running average d the coefficient of variation (CV)
was used on Figuse 12 to model the trend in wet yest frequency.
The increase in CV after I975 (from Figure 12) corresponds with an increase in
sea surfarc temperature for the Northeast Pacific Ocean (shown on Figures 3 and 9). The
CV increase corresponds as welt with the decxease in the upwcilin8 index shown on
Figure a, and the increase in sea surface temperaim shown on Figure 5 for Bodcga Bay.
The increase in CV furthc~ corresponds with the increase in tropical storm frequency
shown on Figure 6.
The increased variation in California rainfall seems definitely related to sea surface
temperature and ocean currents and hence with the increase in the Solar Constant An
increase in severe flooding is also associated with the increase in CV as shown in FiKur~
13 where the number of 1000-year rainfalls in California has increased along with the CV.
Douglas Hoyt and Kenneth Schatten in their book The Role of the Sun in Climate
Challge used a 45-year running average of WoW Sunspot Numbers to their studies. This
suggested a similar investigation using C. alifornla rain records. There was a 1930 study for
a raidall index for Los Angeles based on proxy records at the Old Spanish Missions
extending back to 1769, by H.B.Lynch. When a 45 year CV based on rainfall combined
Lynch record and the Los Angeles rain records was prepared. It was compared to the aS
year .tnmning average of the solar constant series. A plot of the Solar Constant and Los
Angeles rainfall index shows interesting peaks in the presem era and about 1850, as shown
in Figure 14.

Changes in the rotational velocity of Earth are an expression if the angular
momentum of the combined ear, i and atmosphere system_ Tl~e tolal mass of the
atmosphere is about fig equivalent of a ball of lead 60 miles in diam~,r. The length of the
day vawiations (LOD) ate monitored daily to millionths of seconds by the Naval
Observatory who have kindly supplied data for this study. Variation in the east-west wind
component is n~sponsible for over 90 percent of variation in the LOD.
The correspondence between the variation in LOD and ocean upwelling off the
California Coast (as seen on Figure 15) suggests a-wind driven system rather ~ a simple
thermoh~!ine driven sysusm. This is because of the dominan~ of atmospheric influences
in LOD variation. A decrease in oceanic upweHiag in the mid 1970's off the California
Coasx follows the mid 1970's decrease in the LOD variation in. The therrnohaline driven
system provides the cold water in the Western North Pacific Ocean. TIme dominant long
lasting trend in cold water suggesl:i higlgt bamn~tric prr~ure in the west. The warm
temperatures of the F~_mtem North Pacific Ocean suggests long lasting low baromewic
pressures in that region. The pressure differences could drive the winds reflecting in the
variation in the LOD statistic. A decrease in oceanic upwelling is therefore indicates an
increase in sea surface temperature (as seen on Figure 16).
An increase in sea .surface texnp~ratur¢ off our coast means an increase air
temperature trends in California (as seen on Figure 8). The inta~t~ in tropical storm
frequency in the North-east Pacific (as seen on Figure 7), the increased variation in total
rainfall and tl~ number of extreme rainfalls (as seen on Figure 13) are all associated with
th~ higher SST in the North-east Pacific Ocean.
The conclusions from this study are that California rainfall and 2mperamrc
variability are in response to an increase in the "solar constant" and the observed
atmospht~ric heating is from sea stirface temperature and increase and mtan thermal
pollution and trot a "global greenhouse effect". The upwelling of cold water on the Asian
coast is quite clearly driving our West Coast temperature s upward and increasing our
sever storm frequency.

de&tin featm~ of the Deer Creek debris basin. This memorandum lists debris production at
this location to be 310 me-fee from I major storm.
I have calculated the volume of clcbris that could be held by the storm dmirt improvements
ptarmed to run along tiae northern boundary of Tract 14771 as approximatcIy 78,660 cubic
feet or 1.8 acre-feet. I made this calculation using meastffemcnt$ made from the above
mentioned Crrading Plma.'~. The planned trapezoid-shaped storm dram is shown as
approximately 2,020 feet tong, 3.3 feet deep, 6.0 feet wide at the bottom and 17.6 feet wide
at the top.
I have calculated the mmximum volume of debrb, which could be cocttalned by the lcvcc and
swales on Tract 14771, as approximately 12.$4 million cubic feet or 288 acre-feet. Tables
showing the deWmined results of my calculations arc srr~hed to this declaration (See
Attschntent 2). The method I used to calculate 1his volume and my assumptions arc
described in the following

the Deer Crock alluvin[ fan. I measured the slope of zhe alluvial fan to be approximately
7 degrees from the United States Geological Survey Ctwamonga Peak 7-I/2 minut~
quadxanglc. The upper sudacc.of a dobris flow would thus be defined as that elevation
projecting at a 7-degree slope up from the top of the diversion levee until thc elevation
reaches the elevalion at the northern boundary of. the tract. In my opinion, this is a
conservative estimate of maYimtma top of the debris fill as debris coulct conceivably pile
higher than this c|evation and spil! %o the north.
I cons~uct~d north-south-lrendin8 ground surface elevation profiles from the northern
tract boundary southward to the northeast side of the diversion levee. Profiles were
cotretracted along the proposed subdivision streets, along the lo~ boundaries bcv,vcen each
~treet, and at the w~l and east botmdnry of Tract 14771. 'I constructed a total of ten
profiles at a nearly tmiform spacing averaging 220 feet. t uSed the contours of existing

profile. The ten elevation profiles ate attached to this declaration (See Attachment 2). l
then constructed the line reptcscn~l~ the top of maximum potential debris f~I1 w~thin

For each pwfile, I then e, alculated the cross sectional area between the debris fill ~ine and

the cross sectiorud area between the 8round surface and the fill surface, I calculated the
area of ixadividual rapezoidal sl~apu formed by extending vertical lines upwards from the

between conlout lines as the height of ~e Inpezoki and the d~bri8 ~hickness at each

&~,eraSe base length multiplied by the height. I then calculated the ca. oss-~ectionai area of
each profile by sttmmlng the ex~as formed by the individual trapezoids.
Next, [ calculated rise voltline of debris between eoch profi]~ using a'similar trapezoidal
approximation. To obtain the volume of potential debris fit between eavh profile,
calculated the volume of a trap8zotdal prism deftned between successive profiles. To
calculate the prim volume, I multiplied the distance between each profile by the average

ABSTRACT
Debris flows following fire are a common, but poorly understood, problem in
southern California. Research to date suggests that they result from greatly. accelerated
rates of surface erosion by both wet and dry processes during the days and weeks
following a fire. Significant mounts of hillslope debris are delivered to stream channels
during the fire by a process called dry ravel. An important feature of postfire erosion is
the rapid development of extensive rill networks on hillslopes. These rill networks are
linked to a layer of water-repellent soil that forms a few millimeters below the Found
surface during the fire. These rill networks result from numerous, tiny debris flows that
occur on the hillslopes during the early storms. The rill networks form rapidly, often in a
matter of minutes, and provide an efficient means for transporting surface runoff to
stream channels. This helps explain why postfire debris flows often occur during very
small storms and after short periods of rainfall.
INTRODUCTION
Every year southern California faces the unusual problem of
debris flows from freshly burned watersheds. This problem arises
from a unique comb/nation of factors involving the region's vege-
tation, physical setting, and climate. First, the native vegetation,
California chaparral and its associated ecosystems, is subject to
periodic fires. As a given site can potentially burn every 10 to 40
years (Hanes, 1977), fires can be expected to occur somewhere in
southern California almost every year. 'Second, the area is one of
high tectonic activity where steep, chaparral-covered mountain
slopes are drained by steep, short, bedrock-controlled channels.
Finally, because of Califomia's Mediterranean climate, the peak
fire season occurs immediately before the winter rainy season.
Thus, it is not unusual for the early rains to fall on barren, freshly
burned slopes.
Postfire debris flows occur most commonly on smaller wa-
tersheds. They are unusual in that they can occur in response to
rather small storms and do not require a particularly long period
of antecedent rainfall. They occur during the earliest postfire
storms and tend to diminish in frequency as the rainly season
progresses. This suggests that the debris flows are a typical re-
sponse of the anique conditions of the postfire environment to the
early storms.
BACKGROUND
A review of available literature reveals that the relationsh/p
between fires and floods was recogn/zed at least by 1930 and
possibly as much as I0 years earlier. Eaton (1935) was the first to
recognize that these floods were actually debris flows. He dis-
cussed the flooding from burned watersheds that occurred on
January 1, 1934, in the towns of Montrose and La Crescenta near
Los Angeles, California, and characterized these floods as a series
of debris flows.
From Eaton's descrilx/ons and from the published discus-
sions accompanying his paper, it is evident that this phenomenon
was recognized and andersuxxl by workers from the Los Angeles
area, but not by those unfarnDiar with the area and its flooding
problem. Three discussions that supported and elaborated on his
findings were by engineers from the area (Baker, 1935; Blaney,
1935; Pickett, 1935). Most other discussions either disputed his
105
106 W. G. Wells H
findings or focused on other aspects of his paper. Two foresters,
Kotok and Kraebel (1935), who were closely associated with the
then-recently established San Dimas Experimental Forest in Los
Angeles County, were also familiar with the area and understood
its flooding problems. They agreed with Eaton's views but did not
call the flooding a series of debris flows. Rather, they described it
as "the sequence of fire and flood." This was soon shortened to
"fire-flood sequence," and because of the active research at San
Dimas for the next 30 years, it became the most common term in
local usage.
It seems that Eaton may have been ahead of his time, or that
debris flows, as a distinct phenomenon, were not widely recog-
nized in the 1930s, because Eaton is rarely cited in subsequent
articles on postfire flooding. In their later paper on the La Cres-
centa floods, Troxell and Peterson (1937) cited Eaton's work but
treated the floods as alluvial flows of water-borne debris and not
as actual debris flows. Their descriptions of the flows accurately
reflect what we know today about the actual behavior of debris
flows, but they did not identify them as debris flows. Their exten-
sive discussion of the mechanics of flow and sediment transport
clearly shows that they thought they were dealing with alluvial
flows and with sediment that moved as suspended and bed load
in these flows. However, they also described "walls of water" 8 to
10 ft high and flows whose surface was "greatly raised in the
center of the cross section." This last description (Troxell and
Peterson, 1937) generally agrees with more recent descriptions of
debris flows.
After 1937, most of the work on postfire flooding in south-
ern California was done by USDA Forest Service researchers at
the San Dimas Experimental Forest. This research was guided by
the philosophical concepts of soil conservation and focused on
accelerated erosion after fire and on increased peak flows. A
report by the Division of Forest Influences Research staff (1951 )
described dramatic increases in erosion on study plots following a
fire in November 1938. The San Dimas Experimental Forest
Staff (1954) also published an eyewitness account of what was
certainly a debris flow that occurred during January 1954 in an
area that burned in November 1953. The debris flow occurred
during darkness and was again described as a debris-laden flood
and not as a debris flow.
Scott (1971) described the debris flows of January 1969 in
Glendora, Calffomia, and, while noting that most of the moun-
tain slopes above Glendora had burned in the summer of 1968,
he did not make a strong connection between the fires and the
debris flows. Rather, he cited the extremely large storms of that
period as the principal cause of the flows. Later work by Wells
(1982) suggested that large flows are more strongly linked to fires
than to even the largest storms. The problem of postfire debris
flows is not confined to southern California. Brown (1972) re-
ported high peak flows and sedimentation rates from freshly
burned watersheds in Australia. From his account, it seems clear
that these were also debris flows.
By the early 1940s, the connection between recent fires and
flooding was clearly recognized. Rowe and others (1949, 1954)
did an extensive study of the effects of fires on peak flo~s ar
annual sediment production. This was a regional study that
ered virtually all of coastal southern California t'rom San Lu
Obispo to the Mexican border. As a result of this study th~
compiled a series of tables showing expected future peak
and sediment production from burned watersheds in their stuC
area. Unfortunately, this study was never published, although
methodology used in compiling the tables is described in Sectic
22 of the Handbook of Hydrology (Chow, 1964). Even thoug
the study dents extensively with fires and flooding, there is ever
indication that the authors did not consider the flows to be debt
flows or anything other than ordinary floods.
RECENT DEBRIS FLOW STUDIES
Work by Davis (1977) again suggests that many postfir.
flows are debris flows. He analyzed the records of 12 large reset
volts in the Los Angeles area and estimated the bulking ratios c
sediment in their flows. He concluded that bulking ratios tende~
to remain nearly constant over a wide range of flow rates (tw~
orders of magnitude) in a given drainage. High flows tended tt
carry the same proportion of sediment as low flows, and eact
drainage had a characteristic bulking ratio. Davis noted that post-
fire flows were an important exception to this trend. In the wa-
tersheds he studied, Davis found that bulking ratios ranged frorr
about 0.005 to 0.025 (0.5 to 2.5 percent sediment by volume) los
normal flows. For postfire flows, he found bulking ratios of 0.4 tc
0.6 (40 to 60 percent by volume)!
A connection between fires and debris flows was again
demonstrated in 1978 when a debris flow was observed and
photographed in a recently burned watershed near Los Angeles.
California (Wells, 1981). Carter Canyon, a small (31 ha) drain-
age in the San Gabriel Mountains above Sierra Madre, Califor-
nia, was burned by the Mountain Trail Fire on October 23, 1978.
On November I 1, 1978, a debris flow containing 500 to 700 m3
of sediment was observed in Carter Canyon during a small
(38 man) storm. The flow occurred during a brief burst of heavy
rainfall near the end of the storm and came down a channel in
which there had been no previous flow. As it emerged from the
canyon and entered a debris basin, the snout of the flow was
about 2 m high and could have been described as a "wall of
water." Figure I shows the actual debris flow a few seconds after
it entered the debris basin. During the winter of 1978-79, Carlet
Canyon was monitored, and at least two subsequent flows were
identified from bank and channel deposits, although they were
not actually observed. During that year, Carter Canyon produced
3,100 m3 of debris, most of it as debris flows.
During the fall and winter of 1984-85, an experiment to
investigate the effects of burning on small watersheds was done at
the San Dimas Experimental Forest about 32 km northeast of
Los Angeles, California. Four watersheds ranging in size from 15
to 30 ha were prescribe-burned on October 29 and 30. Studies of
debris movement both on hillslopes and in channels were among
several conducted in conjunction with the fires. Observations and

INTRODUCTION
The coastal mountains of southern California present an
interesting sedimentation problem in that periodic brushfires
appear to play a major role in the erosion processes
operating on their slopes. Four factors combine to create
this problem: extremely steep slopes, easily-weathered parent
material, highly flammable vegetation, and the area's
Mediterranean climate.
This paper is primarily concerned with work that is
currently in progress. Therefore, much of the evidence
presented is qualitative rather than quantitative. The data
which are presented are of a preliminary nature and are still
inconclusive. As a result, the hypotheses presented have
not been fully tested and are subject to considerable revisi0~.
DESCRIPTION OF THE AREA
The mountains of California's southern and south-central coast
generally trend from northwest to southeast following the very
active San Andreas Fault. Immediately north of the Los
Angeles Basin is an area called the Transverse Ranges where
the trend shifts to east-west. The information presented here
is mainly from work done in one of these Transverse Ranges,
the San Gabriel Mountains. These mountains lie north of the
Los Angeles metropolitan area and are the main source of its
sedimentation problems (Fig. 2).
The San Gabriel Mountains rise to heights of about 3000
metres from a base of about 200 metres. Slopes are extremely
steep, averaging 60 to 70 percent and frequently exceeding
307
100 percent. Figure 3 shows an example of these slopes in
Carter Canyon near the town of Pasadena in the Los Angeles
metropolitan area. The slopes in this picture actually range
from 80 to 90 percent.
The mountains are mostly Mesozoic granite and a complex
of Precambrian igneous and metamorphic rocks. As a rule,
these rocks are poorly consolidated and weather very rapidly.
As a result, sedimentation rates are usually not weathering-
limited, and there is always abundant sediment available for
transport. Soils are shallow, very coarse textured, and
rarely show any profile development. Because of this and
because of the extremely steep slopes, one of the most
common erosion processes is one called dry ravel. Dry ravel
is simply the unconsolidated flow of dry soil particles under
the influence of gravity. Many of the slopes in the area
exceed the unconsolidated angle of repose for the soil on them,
so that only small disturbances (even wind) are required to
initiate this process. On many of the hillslopes, this process
is responsible for over half of all sediment movement
(Anderson et al., 1959, Krammes, 1960, Krammes, 1965).
The stability of slopes in this area is largely maintained
by the vegetation growing on them. Over half of the area is
covered by a highly flammable complex of evergreen-sclerophyll
shrubs called chaparral (Wells and Palmer- 1979). Chaparral
is a vegetation type this is not only adapted to periodic
fire, but is possibly even dependent on fire for its maintenance
(Hanes, 1974). Muller et al. (1965) estimate that
a given stand of chaparral will burn every 10 to 40 years,
308
and in southern California, many areas have burned as many
1
as five times since 1910'-
The climate of the area, like all Mediterranean climates.~
is characterised by hot, dry summers and cool, wet winters.
The driest months are July and August, and the period from
August to November is one of hot, dry desiccating winds call~
extreme fire danger in a matter of hours. The rainy season
begins in December and lasts until mid-April with January and
February being the wettest months. Plants begin their spring
growth about mid-February and continue through June. Thus,
southern California is presented with a yearly cycle of a
fire season, then a rainy season and, finally, a growing seass
BACKGROUND
The accelerating effect of fires on erosion rates has been
recognised for more than 50 years. Records kept by the U.S.
Forest Service show that studies of this problem had been
proposed as early as 1927. The first quantitative study aPPe-i
to be one published by Rowe et al. in 1954. Working with
rainfall records and reservoir data, they concluded that
sedimentation rates for large (>5 km2) catchments could be as
much as 35 times normal during the first year after a fire.

They also ·concluded that these accelerated erosion rates
decreased rapidly over time and returned to normal in 8 to 10
years.
For smaller catchments and individual hill slopes, these
rates appear to be even higher. Several unpublished reports
from the files of the U.S. Forest Service show increases of
over two orders of magnitude after a fire. Data from one of
these reports is reproduced in Table 1 as an example. This
table compares runoff and sediment delivery from two groups of
0.008 hectare plots on the San Dimas Experimental Forest near
Glendora, California (Fig. 4). The Fern Canyon group consisted
of three plots on a 50 percent slope facing northwest. The
Tanbark group consisted of nine plots on a 35 percent slope
facing east. Both groups of plots were established in 1934,
and the data are for the period from October 1 1935 to
September 30 1946. The Fern Canyon plots were burned on
November 18 1938.
The overall fire effect is evident from the data. Both
sediment delivery and runoff increased after the fire, but the
increase in sediment delivery is much greater. It is
interesting to note that the Fern Canyon plots recovered (returned
to normal) by the end of the third year. This is much sooner
than the time reported by Rowe et al, (1954) and is more in
agreement with the findings of Brown (1972) for burned
catchments in New South Wales, Australia. He reported that
recovery took from 4 to 5 years. It appears that recovery
time is related to basin size. Since sediment delivery is

Reexamining Fire Suppression

Jan E. Kee|ey,~* C. J. Fotheringham,zl· Marco Heralso.I;
California shrubland wildfires are increasingly destructive. and it is widely held
that the problem has been intensified by fire suppression. Reading to larger.
more ~ntense wildfires. However, analysis of the California Statewide Fire
History Database shows that. since 1910, fire frequency and area burned have
not declined, and fire size has not increased. Fire rotation intervals have de-
dined, and fire season has not changed. implying that fire intensity has not
increased. Fire frequency and population density were correlated, and it is
suggested that fire suppression plays a critical rate in offsetting potential
impacts of increased ignitions. Large fires were not dependent on old age classes
of fuels, and it is thus unlikely that age class manipulation of fuels can prevent
large fires. Expansion of the urban-wi|dland interface is a key factor in wildland
fire destruction.
California shrublands frequently fuel massive
high-inmnsity wildfires that are of increasing
concern to resource managers and the public.
Despite increased expenditures on fire sup-
pression, each new decade experiences in-
creased loss of property and tires from brush-
lm~d wildfires (]). By the middle of this
century, it was suggested that the problem
stemmed in large part from the bttrgeoning
population and poor zoning rcguh~ons alton-

Accepting expanded urbanization a.s the
source of the wildfire problem has profound
economic and political implications. An al-
ternalive view to emerge in the early 1970s
was that the primary problem was tied to the
overly successful state and federal fire sup-
pression programs. As a consequence of
eliminating fires from the wildlured ecosys-
tem, it has been widely held that wc have
exaccrbatcd the situation by allowing unnat-
ural fuel accumulation (3). Thus, when the
inevitable fire docs come, it is larger and

A 9-year Landsat imagery record that
showed that fires between 5000 and 10,000
ha were slightly more abundant in southern
California than in ~jaccnt Baja California.
(5) has been widely cited as support For a link
between fire suppression and fire size. On the
basis of this study, it has been hypothesized
thut large wildfires in California shrublands
arc a modern artifact. duc to fire suppression,
and that they can be prevented by creation of
a mosaic landscape of patches of different
ages (6). The model is predicated on asser-
tions that, because of fire suppression, ([) the
number of tires has declined over time, (it)
fires are substantially larger today than in the
past, (iii) contemporary fires burn with great-
er intensity than in the past, (iv) large fires
result From extensive stands of very old age
closes, and (v) there has been a decline in
area burned, as suggested by some (3), but
not all (5), studies. None of these assertions
have bccn documented.
To investigate historical changes in fire
regimes, we used thc recently available Cal-
itbrnia Statewide Fire HiStOry Database,
which includes all records atom the Califor-
nia Dcparnnent of For~sery and U.S. ForeSt
Service and other county records (7).
limited our analysis to counties dominated by
shrublands with ~t stand-replacing fire
gin~e: from north to south, Monterey, San
Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Vantufa, Los
Angeles, San Bcmardino, Riverside, Orange,
and San Diego. Records datc from the late
19th century tbr some counties and from a.t
least I910 for othcrs (8).
Collectively, since 1910, there has been a
highly significant increase (r2 = 0.61, P <
0.01, n = 9) in the number of fires per
decade. This increase is due largely to south-
em California counties, which also had siS-
510 486 7070 P.01/04
ni~cant increases in area burned (Fig. 1) (9).
In no cmmty was there a significant decline in
number of fires or area bumcd. All counties
exhibited significant interdecadal differences
in area burned [P < 0.01, one-way analysis
of variance (ANOVA)]. For most counties,
the 1920s and 1970s were high and the 1930s
and 1960s low. Collectively, area burned was
significantly correlated (r2 = 0.71, P < 0.0l,
n = 9) with number of fires, which was also
correlated (r2 = 0.51, P < 0.05, n = 9) with
population density (t0).
All counties reported very large fires flora
the beginning of record keeping; indeed, one
of the largest fires in Los Angeles Cottory
was a 24,076-ha fire in 1878 (Fig. 2). Durin:l
the 20th century, there has bccn no increase
in mean fire size lbr ~ny county, but four
exhibited significant declines (Fig. 2). One
contributor to this decline could be a purport-
ea inclination by agencies early in the century
to not record very small fires (8). However, ff
fires less than 100 ha in size are removed
from the data set, there is stiI1 a slight down-
ward trend in fire size this century (all coun-
ties combined, r2 = 0.02, P < 0.001, n =
2766). Another factor that could explain a
trend toward smaller mean fire size is tht:
increase in human-caused (I ;) ignitions (Fig.
1), coupled with the t~.ct that many are ignited
under moderate weather conditions and along
toadways, factors contributing to their sup-
pression at a small size (12). rfwe focus just
on large fires, greater than 1000 ha, the trend
toward smaller fires disappears, but still no.
county had a significant increase in fire size
(ranges: ra = 0.00 to 0.02, P > 0.10 to 0.99,
n =. 82 to 159). The assertion that large
wildfires are an artifact of modern fire sup-
pression iS not snpported.
ContraSting fires after 1950, when fire
suppression impacts would be greatest (I3),
with those in and before 1950, we see no
significant change in patteru of burning (Fig.
3A); a small pcmentage of fires account for
the bulk of area burned, now and in the past
[10% of the fires accounted for 75% (in and
before 1950) to 79% (after 1950) of the area
burned], The primary change has been in the
prolifcration of fires between 10 and 100 ha
(Fig. 3B), reflecting both increased ignitions
under moderate conditions--.that favor sup-
pressiota--and increased reporting of small
fires. In these brushland ccosystems, the fre-
quency of small to medium size fires cannot
be ~ksed to quantify the risk or largc ~rcs (t4).
Contrasting fire regimes between the first
and second halves of this century, we tbund
that fire frequency increased m all but one
county (Table 1). The majority of camales
exl~ibited no significant change in mean or
median fire size; however, three southern
Califoruia counties had highly significant de-
clines in mean fire size. Fire rotation inter-

These f=c rotation intervals do not support
the assertion that large rims derive from ancient
stands of brush. To investigate the tree fire
return interval, we us~ digitizcd fire maps for
the Sm~m Monica Mountains in Los Angeles
and Ventura counties (16). Fires in this brush-
dominated range have included numerous large
catas~ophic and costly fires, such as the 1961

nificant (P < 0,05 with one-way ANOVA, n =
8) diff~rencc across age claSSes, with timIs l 1 to
20 years old rapresenting 38%, which was more
~¢tn double the consumption of older age clas~
fuels. Became of the proximity of this range to
urban centers, the age classes consumed may
not be representative of more remote sites;

Inferences that ~reg today arc of greater
intensity arc based on the assertions that fire
rotation intervals have increased and fixere
has been a seasonal shift toward autumn
burning (6). However, rotation intervals have
generally declined (Table !) and September
has remained the peak month of burning
throughout this century (Fig. 5).
Humans directly affect fire rcgirnes in two
ways: They ignite fires and they suppress
fires. In brush-covered landscapes of south-
em and central-coastal California, there is no
evidence that fire suppression has altered the
natural stand-replacing f'nre regime in the
manner suggested by others (& 5). This is

in striking contrast to coniferous forcats
throughout much of the western United
Statcs, where the stand-thinning fire regime
has proven amenable to near total fire ex-
clusion, resulting in demonstrably hazard-
omq fuel accumulation and increased poten-
tial f'or catastrophic wildfires (17). The pri-
mary hazard in brnshland ecosystems is the
marked increase in fire frequency during
the latter half of this century that often
results in type conversion to nonnativc
exotic grasslands (18), and fire suppression
plays a crucial role in offsetting this
impact.
Large catastrophic wildfires in brush-cov-
ered regions of California are often drivc;n by
high winds, and raider these conditions even
modern fire suppression techniques are inef-
fective (19). Today, pcople ignite most Of
these fires; however, in their absence, light-
ning storms that typically occur just weeks
betbre the autumn fo~hn winds (ll) would
have providcd a natural sourcc of ignition.
Although fuel structure is an important deter-
mining thetot in fire behavior: the role of
strncrure diminishes markedly under foOhn
winds that can blow at speeds exceeding 100
bT~hour and arc responsible for the majori~'
of arcs burned in California bntshlands (19).
Under these conditions, fires readily blzm
through all age classes of fiiels (Fig. 4), and
thus, rotational burning programs that
tempt to modify vast stretches of chaparral
landscape through age class modification arc
not likely to bc effective in stopping these
catastropMc fir¢s.

Tills may come ~ welcome news to m-
sottree managers because the combinatk~n of
legal restrictions and filmncial constzaims
makes large-scale prescribed burning of brush-
land landscapes unobtainabl¢. Our results sup-
port the conclusion That the most effective strat-
egy (20) for reducing catasU'ophic losses from
wildfires is to minim/ze the management cffort
spent on the bulk of the cltaparnti landscape and
focus on stntegic locations. The worst fires
prcdlctably tbllow landscape features, and these
patterns can be used W select buffer zones at the
urbm~-wi Idland interface for more intensive ~uel
management. However, the urban-wild]and in-
terface is so extensive now that cvcn su'ategi-
eaily ~octtsed intensive mm-lagcmenr could have
enormous ecological impacts. Preference for a
rural life-Style and the skyrocketing cost of
suburban housing in Iarg¢ metropolitan ar-
eas continue to expand the urban-wildIand
interface, and of particular concern is the
prediction that rural population wi}l soon
exceed urban grov~th (21).

The incidence and importance of fire in the Amazon have increased substantially
during the past decade, but the effects of this disturbance force are still poorly
understood. The forest fire dynamics in two regions of the eastern Amazon were
studied. Accidental fires have affected nearly SO percent of the remaining
forests and have caused more deforestation than has intentional clearing in
recent years. Forest fires create positive feedbacks in future fire susceptibi|ity,
fuel |oading, and fire intensity. Unless current rand use and fire use practices
are chan~ed, fire has the potential to transform large areas of tropical forest
into scrub or savanna,
Fire is recognized as a historic but infrequent
element of the Amazonion disturbmice regime
(I, 2). Cun'endy, however, fires in AmazonSart
lbrests ate frequent because of the ~ccidental
spread from nearby paslums and the metcased
susceptibility of partially logged or damaged
forests (3-6). Here. positive feedbacks as~-
elated with accidental forest rims arc report-
ed; these constitute a threat to thc integrity of
a large pan of the Amazonion forest.
Field scudis were concentrated in d~e
Tail~ndia region 0:iS. l). Ten 0.f-ha plots
(eight fie-affected and two control), spread
over 100 kmz, were established in 1996 to study
fire impacts on forest structure, biDmass, and
species composition (3). These plots were rc-

were made at widely scattered locations with-
in a 150-km2 area south of Tail~ndia. For

used to calculate the rate of spread and was
combined with flame depth data to calculate
the average range of flame residence times at
a point. Fl:une height was used as a censer~
vadve estimate of total flame length for the
calculation of fireline intensity (11) because
wind and slope were minimal (12),
The first fire to enter a forest usually
move~ slowly along the ground (Table t) and
is similar to a prescribed bum (<50 kW m'l)
in intensity (13). These fires consume little
besides the dry leaf liner, but because of
the chaxaeteristically thin tree bark [7.3 ~ 3.7
mm for >20 cm diameter at breast height
(dbh) (8)] protecting the cambium tissue:s,
they still kill roughly 95% of the contacted
stems > 1 cm dbh. Large, thicker barked trees
survive. After the fire, a rain of combustible
fuels of all Sizes falls from the standing dead
trees CTable I) (14). Fire damage and
windthrow in these thinned forests continue
to cause mortality for ~t least 2 years after the
fire (4, 15). Fuel levels rise substantially and
the open canopy (50 to 70% cover) allows
greater solar heating and air movement to dry
out the forest fuels. Previously burned forests
thus become susceptible to fire during corrl-
men dry season weather conditions (3).
Previously burned forests were much
more likely to bum than were unbumcd for-
ests in 1997 (Table 1). Burned forests axe
often adjacent to fire-maintained pasture and
agricultural plots and are therefore frequently
exposed to sources of ignition. Second fires
are faster moving and much more intense. We
estimate heat release (12) of <7500 kW m~
in first bums but of 75,000 kW m'a or more
in subsequent burns. Because of the increased
flame depth, the residence time increases
spite [aster rates of spread, resulting in great-
er tree mortality. Large trees have linle sua'-
rival advm~tage during these more intense
fires. Fire-induced tree mortality can be mod-
eled as a function of bark thickness and fire
residence time (16). For the observed fire
characteristics and bark thickness distribution
(8), no more than 45% of ~rees over 20 cm
dbh are stLsceptible to fire-induced mortality
in the initial fires. However, in recurrent fires,
up to 98% of the trees become susceptible
fire-induced mortality.
The impacts of recurrent fires are much
worse than those of initial rims. Higher mortal-
Sty result~ in a very open canopy (10 to 40%
cover), large inputs of combustible fuels, and
[s~ter drying. During the 1997 fires, subarmorial
amounts of carbon were released to the atmc-
sphcrc, with combustion reducing oneire bit'-
mass by apptoximamly 15, 90, and 140 Mg
Im't in feet, second, and recurrent bums,
speetively. Invading grasses and weedy vines
add highly combustible live fuels to the already

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
FOOTHILL BOULEVARD MEDIANS PHASE II
NOVEMBER 17, 1999
PAGE 2
The construction project will include installing a landscape median island along Foothill
Blvd., widening the Deer Creek Bridge Structure to the ultimate width on Foothill Blvd,
installing a Master Plan Drainage System from the Deer Creek Channel to the Church Street\
Basin, installing a new Traffic Signal at Center Street and Foothill Blvd. and modifying the
existing traffic signal at Hermosa Avenue and Foothill Blvd. to the ultimate location.
This project lies within the boundaries of the City of Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment
Area for assistance to local businesses, thus the Redevelopment Agency will be contributing
half of the costs for development.
Phase I of the Foothill Blvd. Median Landscape is currently under construction with
completion early 2000. The proposed Phase II will be a continuation of the project with the
additional amenities. The merchants, property owners and residents in the area have been
notified of the improvements and have welcomed the public improvements.
When completed, the project will extend from Vineyard Avenue to Haven Avenue, including
flood protection at the intersection of Hermosa Avenue and Foothill Blvd.
The Engineer's estimate for construction of Phase II is $3.75 million. Legal advertising is
scheduled for November 30 and December 14, 1999 with the Bid Opening at 2:00 PM on
Tuesday, December 28, 1999.

e. This amendment would not be materially injurious or detrimental to
the adjacent properties and would not have a significant impact on
the environment nor the surrounding properties.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Council during the
above-referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in
paragraphs 1 and 2 above, this Council hereby finds and concludes as follows:
That the subject property is suitable for the uses permitted in the
proposed district in terms of access, size, and compatibility with
existing land use in the surrounding area. A Low-Medium
Residential designation is proposed in Area 1, consistent with the
other Low-Medium districts abutting the Interstate 15 Freeway in the
Etiwanda Area. The proposed Low-Medium designation was shown
in the Master Plan for approved Tentative Tract 15711 to depict
circulation and a potential subdivision design. A Medium Residential
designation is proposed in Area 2 adjoining a commercial corridor
to provide support for businesses, public transit, and to create viable
activity centers. Area 2 is shown on the Etiwanda Specific Plan
Concept Plan of "Relative Land Use Intensities" as an appropriate
site for higher land use intensities because of the proximity to major
traffic and commercial corridors. The proposed Medium designation
Ordinance 611
Page 3
in Area 2 is consistent with the existing property lines and contains
ample frontage along Etiwanda Avenue, with secondary access
available to the north in approved Tentative Tract Map 15711. The
property configurations in Area 2 provide opportunity for a
coordinated, appropriately designed Medium density project
compatible with the nearby Foothill Boulevard commercial corridor;
and
b. That the proposed amendment would not have significant impacts
on the environment nor the surrounding properties. The General
Plan currently designates Area 1 as Medium Residential (8-14
dwelling units per acre) and Area 2 as Low-Medium Residential (4-8
dwelling units per acre). The proposed project exchanges land use
designations of two undeveloped 20-acre sites. This equal
exchange of land use designations is intended to be "density
neutral" with no changes in the number of dwelling units designated
for the Etiwanda Specific Plan; and
c. That the proposed amendment is in conformance with the General
Plan and the Etiwanda Specific Plan.
4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Negative
Declaration, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental
assessment for the application, the City Council finds that there is no substantial
evidence that the project will have a significant effect upon the environment and
adopts a Negative Declaration attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this
reference, based upon the findings as follows:
a. That the Negative Declaration has been prepared in compliance with
the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended, and
the State CEQA guidelines promulgated thereunder; that said
Negative Declaration and the Initial Study prepared therefore reflect
the independent judgment of the City Council; and, further, this
Council has reviewed and considered the information contained in
said Negative Declaration with regard to the application.
b. That, based upon the changes and alterations which have been
incorporated into the proposed project, no significant adverse
environmental effects will occur.
c. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 753.5(c) of Title 14 of the
California Code of Regulations, the City Council finds as follows: In
considering the record as a whole, the Initial Study and Negative
Declaration for the project, there is no evidence that the proposed
project will have potential for an adverse impact upon wildlife
resources or the habitat upon which wildlife depends. Further,
based upon the substantial evidence contained in the Negative
Declaration, the staff reports and exhibits, and the information
provided to the City Council during the public hearing, the City
Council hereby rebuts the presumption of adverse effect as set forth
in Section 753.5(c-1-d) of Title 14 of the California Code of
Regulations.

5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4
above, this Council hereby approves Etiwanda Specific Plan Amendment 99-01, a
request to change the Etiwanda Specific Plan Land Use Map for approximately 20
acres of land south of the Interstate 15 Freeway and west of East Avenue from
Medium Residential (8-14 dwelling units per acre) to Low-Medium Residential (4-8
dwelling units per acre); and for approximately 20 acres of land on the east side of
Etiwanda Avenue, 550 feet north of Foothill Boulevard, from Low-Medium
Residential (4-8 dwelling units per acre) to Medium Residential (8-14 dwelling units
per acre) as shown in the Exhibit "A."

CONSIDERATION OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAFTER 1204 OF TrT1.E 12
OF THE RANCHO CUCAMONGA MUNICIPAL CODE PROVIDING FOR THE
ESTABLISHMENT OF LEAS~ AREAS IN PUBLIC PARKS AND
A[:X:)P'RNG REGULATIONS APPUCABLE THERETO; AND CONSIDERATION OF A
RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING A LEASI-K)FT]ONAL AREA FOR DOGS WITHIN A
CITY-OWNED PARK
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached ordinance and resolution
providing for the development and operation of an off-leash dog area within the City.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The City Council has previously approved use of the northwest corner of Etiwanda
Creek Park as an off-leash dog area. As part of that approval, the City Council required
the Members of R.C.-S.P.O.T. (Rancho Cucamonga - Socializing Pets and Owners
Together) to raise the required funds and install the necessary improvements. The
group is actively fundraising for the initial phase of the improvements which will include
the fencing necessary to open the park. R.C.-S.P.O.T. is hopeful that the park will be
open by the end of the year.
The existing municipal code section governing the use of City parks prohibits dogs from
being off-leash within the parks. In order to allow off-leash dog area(s) within City parks
it is necessary to amend the municipal code to allow for areas to be designated as off-
leash dog spaces.
MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OFF-LEASH DOG AREA ORDINANCE AND RESOLUTION
November 17, 1999
Page 2
The attached ordinance is presented for first reading and will make the necessary
changes to the municipal code to allow off-leash areas. Included within the ordinance
are those off-leash facility regulations which have been discussed and agreed to with
representatives of R. C.-S. P. O .T,
Also attached is a resolution which specifically designates the northwest corner of
Etiwanda Creek Park as an approved off-leash dog area. In the future, if the City
Council decides to allow additional off-leash areas these can be added by designation
in a resolution.
City staff is currently completing the preparation of an agreement with R.C.-S.P.O.T.
identifying the responsibility of the City and R.C.-S.P.O.T. with regards to facility
development and operation. It is expected that the proposed agreement will be
presented to the City Council on December 1, 1999, for consideration along with the
second re ding of the attached ordinance.
