San Bernardino County and its Department of Health on Tuesday April 13 suspended use of Johnson & Johnson’s version of the COVID-19 vaccine following reports of what were said to be six “rare cases” of blood clotting in those inoculated with the prophylactic.
The discontinuation of the vaccine’s use is temporary, county officials said, and was being done in compliance with recommendations made by state and federal health agencies.
Health professionals downplayed the seriousness of the clotting reaction, pointing out that the six known manifestations of the problem were among more than 6.8 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson/Janssen vaccine administered in the U.S.
The pause was issued in response to six reported cases of a rare and severe type of blood clot in individuals after receiving the Johnson & Johnson/Janssen vaccine. None of the six cases were in California.
Physicians with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control have just begun to analyze the incidence of clotting, and have not yet moved to the conclusion that the vaccine is flawed. The Johnson & Johnson vaccine was given emergency FDA approval in February as part of a push to speed up vaccination efforts to arrest the progression of the year-long pandemic.
The clots that have been tracked are serious, occurring in places they are not known to lodge, in veins that drain blood from the brain, and in people with abnormally low levels of clot-forming platelets. The six cases created alarm among medical professionals in that six was at least three times the number of brain-drainage clots that would have been statistically likely to occur, according to the Centers for Disease Control’s Dr. Tom Shimabukuro.
“What we have here is a picture of clots forming in large vessels where we have low platelets,” Shimabukuro said. “This usually doesn’t happen.”
Of the six people inoculated who suffered the blood clots, one died and another is in serious condition.
The government said there are no signs of similar clots after vaccination with the Pfizer and Moderna shots that are the most plentiful vaccines available in the United States.
The Johnson & Johnson vaccine accounts for 48,600, or 6.6 percent, of the 738,225 vaccine doses received in San Bernardino County. Pfizer accounts for 49.5 percent and Moderna 43.9 percent.
The county has 8,500 doses of the Johnson & Johnson/Janssen vaccine on hand. Those doses will be kept in storage pending further direction from the state and federal governments.
County-run vaccination clinics have primarily used the Pfizer vaccine. County-operated special vaccination events that had been scheduled to utilize the Johnson & Johnson/Janssen vaccine have been switched to Pfizer. Second-dose appointments will be made when first doses are administered. Those who have appointments for those events are being notified. There are no plans to cancel events at this time.
“The county has no higher priority than the health and safety of our residents,” said Dr. Michael A. Sequeira, San Bernardino County Health Officer. “Although this condition is extremely rare among Johnson & Johnson recipients – much more rare than serious blood clots among those who contract COVID-19 – this pause is prudent pending further federal review.”
Anyone who has received the Johnson & Johnson/Janssen vaccine and who develops a severe headache, abdominal pain, leg pain or shortness of breath should contact his or her health care provider, Sequeira said.
“The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines remain widely available in our county and have proven to be safe and effective,” Sequeira said. “The public should remain confident in the nation’s COVID-19 vaccination effort.”

American Pacific Borates and Lithium Limited is purposed to initiate operation of what is believed to be the third largest boric acid mining project in the world at Fort Cady in San Bernardino County’s Mojave Desert.
The mine is located approximately 30 miles east of Barstow and two-and-four-tenths miles south of Interstate 40.
American Pacific Borates and Lithium Limited is working what is the world’s largest known borate deposit, with an estimated mineral resource of 120.4 million tons. In total, over $80 million has been spent on the Fort Cady project, including license acquisition, drilling and resource estimation, well testing, metallurgical testing, feasibility studies and pilot plant infrastructure. In addition, the project has previously obtained all operating and environmental permits required for commercial solution mining operations.
Duval Corporation evaluated the Fort Cady deposit in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, completing over 30 diamond drill holes upon which the maiden resource estimate was defined. An additional 17 production wells were completed in the following years which were used for injection testing and pilot-scale operations.
The project will be developed in three phases with an estimated investment of $526 million. Phase one is now approaching operational status, while phases two and three are expected to be operational by the second quarter of 2023 and the second quarter of 2025, respectively.
The mine site encompasses an area of a half square mile.
The Fort Cady deposit lies in the Hector Basin in the central Mojave region. The project area has uniform exposures of fine-grained lacustrine sediments and tuffs with younger alluvium occurring in washes and overlying the older lacustrine sediments.
The entire mineralized zone, irrespective of grade cut-off and minor barren interbeds, ranges up to 400 feet in thickness. The borate mineralization occurs in the form of colemanite and is found in thinly laminated silt, clay, and gypsum beds.
The Fort Cady project has proven reserves of 27 metric tons, grading 6.70 percent boron trioxide, B2O3, 11.91 percent boric acid, H3BO3, and 379 parts per million of lithium as of December 2018. The probable reserves are estimated at 13.8 metric tons grading 6.40% boron trioxide, B2O3, 11.36% boric acid, H3BO3, and 343 parts per million of lithium.
The project employs a solution mining method carried out at the site of the deposits intended to recover boric acid. A push and pull method is currently employed and will continue until the wells naturally connect, after which separate injection and recovery wells will be used.
A hydrochloric acid solution is injected into the ore body, 1,394 feet below the surface through the wells. The solution leaches the colemanite ore to form a pregnant leach solution, which is extracted through reverse pumping.
The pregnant leach solution is processed and filtered to remove insoluble impurities by passing it through a solvent extraction circuit, followed by washing and stripping circuit. The final stripped liquor is filtered and directed to the crystallization circuit.
The crystallizer produces slurry containing 28 percent liquid boric acid by weight, which is directed to the dewatering circuit. The boric acid liquor is filtered, concentrated, and crystallized by evaporation. The crystallized boric acid is dried and bagged as a final product.
The site is accessible from the I-40 Hector turn-off and Route 66. A pipeline has been constructed to connect the processing plant to the existing Pacific Gas and Electric Company mainline for supplying natural gas for the project.
Power is sourced from an eight megawatt steam turbine type generator. Water is supplied from two existing water wells in the area. Four new wells are proposed to supply 100 gallons per minute of process water required for the operations when it reaches full capacity.
Barr Engineering, an engineering and environmental consulting services company, was engaged to work on the mineral processing program. .
The geotechnical and water management consulting firm Piteau Associates was contracted to prepare a detailed mining plan for Fort Cady while RESPEC Consulting certified the identified mineral resource estimates into verified ore reserves.
Process solutions company Millcreek Engineering was engaged to conduct basic engineering for the Fort Cady project.
The combined environmental impact statement and environmental impact report for the plan of operations was issued by the Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management, and the mining conditional use permit and approved reclamation plan was issued jointly by the San Bernardino Land Use Services Department and the California Department of Conservation, Office of Mine Reclamation.
Ultimately, approximately 80 employees are to be involved on-site at the operation.

The Wildlands Conservancy has conferred upon former Yucaipa Mayor Dick Riddell its Lifetime Conservation Award.
The Wildland Conservancy Board and its executive director, David Myers, timed the presentation of the award to correspond with Riddell’s 96th birthday on April 8.
Riddell had served on the city council from 1994 until the end of last year, when he was defeated in the city’s first by-district election in District 5, in which he was outdistanced by Jon Thorp.
During his 26 year tenure, Riddell was elevated to the mayor’s position by his colleagues for a total of 15 one-year terms.
A member of the California Oak Foundation, Riddell was the progenitor of Yucaipa’s oak tree ordinance and as a member of both the city council and a member of the Crafton Hills Open Space Conservancy and Yucaipa Valley Conservancy, he had a hand in establishing a state park, a city wildlands park and regional trails.

The incidence of mountain lions preying upon household pets in Wrightwood has increased significantly in recent weeks.
There have been repeated sightings of the cats – known by the scientific name puma concolo  – throughout Wrightwood on both sides of the east/west San Bernardino County/Los Angeles County boundary.
Mature males of the species generally weigh between 118 pounds and 220 pounds and mature females between 65 pounds and 141 pounds. In the California wild, they will aggressively prey on deer, sheep, goats, coyotes, rabbits, raccoons and gophers. Attacks on people are rare, but do take place. Preying on livestock and pets may occur when a mountain lion is in a condition of severe starvation.
Attacks are most frequent during late spring and summer, when juvenile cougars leave their mothers and search for new territory. That appears to be what is happening in Wrightwood at present.
Pet owners are advised to avoid interactions between their domesticated animals and mountain lions by keeping pets on a leash while they’re outdoors, bringing pets inside at night and enclosing them in a protected space if left unattended outside.

A 45-year-old man who has yet to be identified by authorities was found dead in the parking lot of Victorville’s Green Tree Inn after creating a ruckus and getting his clock cleaned by a security guard early Thursday evening.
Just before 7:30 p.m., San Bernardino County sheriff’s deputies summoned to the location found the man. One report had it that he was found on the ground after having stumbled following his fight with the security guard. Another said he had made it to a vehicle, believed to be his own, and was found there unresponsive and no longer breathing.
The sheriff’s dispatch center sent the deputies to the Green Tree Inn in response to a report of an assault having taken place there.
The deputies attempted to revive the man, performing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation after checking for a puse and finding none. Paramedics responded and the man was transported to Victor Valley Global Medical Center in Victorville, where he waa pronounced dead.
It was the position of hotel staff that the man, who was not checked into the hotel, was causing a disturbance and was unwelcome at the hotel, and thus merited the thrashing he was given.
Homicide investigators in short order verified that he was not a guest at the Green Tree Inn. The detectives have not verified the claims by hotel personnel that the intruder provoked the beating he received by mouthing off to them and the security guard. Witnesses said the man clearly lost in the physical exchange with the guard, who sent him packing into the parking lot, where he was staggering and lost his footing more than once, falling to the pavement.
Public identification of the man will not come until notification of his next of kin is made.

With the suspension of Rosemary Hoerning as city manager, Steven Parker is the new honcho in Upland, and he is not going to allow things to get away from him like she did. Indeed, if that happens, Parker is prepared to leave on his own terms rather than be forced out on the city council’s terms, as has happened with Hoerning.
Parker, who has been elevated to the position of acting city manager, is no pushover. He landed the assistant city manager position in Upland in April of last year on the strength of the four month’s experience he had as the accounting manager with the City of West Covina, the year and seven months he spent as the assistant city manager with the City of Stanton, where for four years and five months before that he was Stanton’s director of administrative services. Prior to that, he spent six months as a department manager on loan to the City of San Bernardino while working for the preeminent municipal government consulting firm in California, Urban Futures. For three-and-a-half years before that he was the finance director with the Yorba Linda Water District. In addition to that, Parker had more than ten-and-a-half years experience as supervisor, manager and senior manager with the accounting firms of Mayer Hoffman McCann and Conrad & Associates. That experience convinced Hoerning that Parker had what it takes to serve as her right-hand man.
Parker knows that Hoerning was doing a first class job running the City of Gracious Living. He had been right beside her in the trenches as a senior member of her management team. She was felled by small-minded people in the city who either did not have the sharps to recognize the exemplary way in which she and Parker were making the machinery at Upland City Hall hum or who were so envious of their achievements that they felt compelled to cheapen them imposing on Hoerning a humiliating suspension she does not deserve.
Hoerning had the good sense to right Upland’s listing financial ship, and Parker admires her for that. A numbers cruncher extraordinaire, Parker recognizes that Upland’s top-flight public employees deserve all they are getting and more in the way of salaries, benefits and future promised pensions. It is Upland’s tightfisted and ungrateful citizens who have historically turned down the option of imposing further taxes upon themselves to defray the cost of the top-drawer service all of Upland’s residents are benefiting from. It is those small-minded people who are preventing the city from being able to maintain its fiscal integrity, Parker implicitly understands. Hoerning, with Parker’s assistance, found the solution to Upland’s dilemma: pension obligation bonds. Together they have the city on a course to issue $130 million worth of those bonds, projecting that debt onto the backs of the current generation’s children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, who will be better able to afford the opportunity to pay off the debt present-day Uplanders are accruing so they can benefit by the excellent service of the dedicated employees at City Hall.
Late last month, the Upland City Council in its questionable wisdom began the process of removing Hoerning as city manager, in so doing having Parker take on the duties she had formerly shouldered in overseeing city operations. Parker has gamely stepped into the role of acting city manager, yet he believes the council made a mistake in getting rid of someone as dedicated and competent as Hoerning. If the council is committed to that mistake and cannot be dissuaded from it, Parker would like to see Hoerning restored as city engineer, the position she was elevated from to take on the city manager’s post in 2019. That will be possible only if, after the insult that has been heaped upon her, Hoerning is yet willing to remain with the city.
As far as Parker is concerned, Hoerning and virtually everyone at City Hall have been the victims of a disinformation campaign perpetrated by wrongheaded city residents along with unscrupulous and unethical journalists. This agitation is aimed at tearing down the city and destroying the good names and reputations of the city’s municipal workforce. The Sentinel, Parker knows, has been a central element in this scurrilous promulgation of fake news.
A case in point is the Sentinel’s April 2 edition, which carried an article about Hoerning’s promotion of Community Development Director Robert Dalquest. The Sentinel erroneously reported that the community development director position in Upland had eight pay grades or steps. The Sentinel inaccurately reported that Hoerning’s action skipped Dalquest six of those steps to the seventh step. The Sentinel inaccurately reported that when Dalquest was hired by the city, he began, as do most city employees, at the lowest pay grade, or step, within the job category of community services director. The Sentinel, in error, reported that in conferring the raise upon Dalquest, Hoerning upped his pay by $32,876. All of that was a pack of insidious lies, according to Parker, designed to prejudice the city’s residents against Hoerning, the best city manager Upland ever had, and Dalquest, an urban planner universally recognized as someone at the very pinnacle of his profession.
Everyone in Upland knows, according to Parker, that there are thirteen steps, not eight, in the pay scale for Upland development services director, and that when Dalquest began with the city in December 2018, he was remunerated at a point on the pay scale midway between step four and step five. Thus, when Hoerning boosted Dalquest’s pay status, she did so only by two-and-one-half steps, a raise of $8,447.56, not the $32,876 reported in the Sentinel on April 2.
The way Parker sees it, the Sentinel is chock full of horseshit, which fortunately, is recognized by the majority of those who read it for what it is. Nevertheless, Parker, who is way smarter than all five of the members of the city council, recognizes that two of the council members are so stupid they actually take what appears in the Sentinel at face value. Saddled with this situation, Parker is facing an existential crisis and is not certain he wants to remain in the role of assistant city manager in Upland if and when the city council decides on who is to replace Hoerning, let alone subject himself to serving as acting city manager answerable to the full council until the arrival of a new city manager to relieve him of that burden.
If Parker cannot persuade the city council to keep Hoerning as city manager or as city engineer, he is ready to quit, which will leave Upland in a real fix.

The holder of this perspective refused to identify herself.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF: JESUS Q. SANDOVAL
CASE NO. PROPS 2100337
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both of JESUS Q. SANDOVAL
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by CESAR SANDOVAL in the Superior Court of California, County of SAN BERNARDINO.
THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that CESAR SANDOVAL be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedent’s wills and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.
THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in Dept. No. S-37P at 9:00 a.m. on MAY 12, 2021 at Superior Court of California, County of San Bernardino, 247 West Third Street, San Bernardino, CA 92415, San Bernardino District.
Filed: MARCH 22, 2021
JUDGE TARA REILLY
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under Section 9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

Sentinel 4-09-21

This week, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors overrode the concerns of local residents, local water district members and officials with the Colton Joint Unified School District by giving a deep-pocketed campaign donor go-ahead on a development plan that will allow contaminant-tainted water run-off from his project in Bloomington to be injected directly into the regional water table.
In the months and weeks before approval was ultimately given to that project, the county in lockstep with the developer hid from the public information relating to how stormwater at the site will be handled.
The project in question is Chandi Enterprises’ proposal to construct what has essentially evolved into a truck stop to be located at 10951 Cedar Avenue, at the southeast corner of Cedar and Santa Ana Avenue in the unincorporated county community of Bloomington, three-quarters of a mile south of the I-10 Freeway.
The property is currently zoned for low density residential use, in which the minimum density is to be no greater than a single unit per acre, with agricultural uses permitted on the property. The project proposal called for a zoning amendment altering the residential land use to commercial.
In the more than two years that the project has been on the drawing boards and under consideration by the San Bernardino County Land Use Services Department, its character and intensity has significantly changed. Initially it was represented as a commercial center with a large restaurant as its centerpiece. It was at that time intended, Chandi Enterprises maintained, to involve some retail units, two fast food outlets and a gas station. Multiple versions and redrafts followed, until at present an opposition to the project has formed. According to those project opponents, the facility is most accurately described as a truck stop.
Trucking in the unincorporated county community of Bloomington is a sensitive issue. With its current number of residents approaching 26,000, Bloomington is larger population-wise than six of San Bernardino County’s cities or towns – Needles, Big Bear Lake, Grand Terrace, Yucca Valley, Barstow and Loma Linda. It straddles the I-10 Freeway essentially south of the cities of Rialto and Fontana and north of the Riverside County line. Paralleling the freeway are the parallel Union Pacific and Southern Pacific the railroad lines as well as the major east-west thoroughfares of Santa Ana Avenue, Jurupa Avenue, Slover Avenue and Valley Boulevard, all of which lead toward Ontario International Airport. Thus, the community, once intensely agricultural in nature, has become more and more identified with the transportation industry. In addition, the City of Fontana, led by Mayor Acquanetta Warren, has for the last decade sought economic rejuvenation by the construction of warehousing. The rise of the logistics industry in an area proximate to Bloomington has led to an intensification of truck traffic through the community.
Moreover, a significant number of residents in Bloomington are themselves associated with the trucking industry. In many cases, those residents have grown accustomed to using their property as storage and parking areas in ways that are not in compliance with local codes. The county has been reluctant, remiss or neglectful in enforcing these regulations, such that bootleg trucking operations proliferate in Bloomington neighborhoods.
Among a significant portion of the Bloomington population there has been resistance to the development of warehousing or other enterprises that have the ultimate effect of cementing Bloomington as a trucking-centered community. Even as outside entities have sought through the county, which has land use authority over Bloomington, legitimate entitlements to construct warehousing and distribution operations in the community, residents have registered consistent protests. Generally, those protests have been ineffective. Most of those development proposals clashed in some regard with the zoning or development standards for the area. Nevertheless, even over resident opposition, the county planning commission and the board of supervisors have consistently granted the discretionary variances, zone changes and planning document amendments necessary to allow those projects to proceed, even though the options existed to withhold those approvals. This has led to the charge that county officials, most notably the board of supervisors, has consistently sided with developmental interests over the residents of Bloomington. It has been suggested that those county officials have little or no regard for the community of Bloomington, with a population at the low end of the socioeconomic ladder, in comparison to business and developmental interests with a propensity for providing the county’s elected leadership with hefty political contributions on the legal side and outright bribes and kickbacks on the illicit side. The Chandi Enterprises trucking augmentation facility at 10951 Cedar Avenue is largely seen as an illustration of this trend.
Others have suggested there is a racial/ethnic component at play. Members of county staff have remarked that while a project such as the Chandi Enterprises trucking facility can find a home in a district like Bloomington, where 2010 Census figures put the percentage of Latinos in the community at 64.4 percent, a similar project would not see the light of day in the white affluent unincorporated county communities of San Antonio Heights or Lake Arrowhead.
Perhaps the most alarming element of the plan is that the county has hidden from public view that it has allowed Chandi Enterprises to utilize the least expensive and least intensive methodology to arrest the flow of pollutants that will emanate from the site once it is has been converted to a truck stop. The county has elected to “let the native soil” do all the work in terms of stormwater dispersal instead of insisting on more stringent mitigation options.
Most telling in this regard was that the county did not require Chandi Enterprises to carry out a full-blown environmental impact report for the project, instead allowing its environmental certification to be effectuated by the board of supervisors making what is called a mitigated negative declaration.
An environmental impact report is an involved study of the project site, the project proposal, the potential and actual impacts the project will have on the site and surrounding area in terms of all conceivable issues, including land use, water use, air quality, potential contamination, noise, traffic, and biological and cultural resources. It specifies in detail what measures can, will and must be carried out to offset those impacts.
A mitigated negative declaration is a far less exacting size-up of the impacts of a project, by which the panel entrusted with a community’s ultimate land use authority, in this case the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors, issues a declaration that all adverse environmental impacts from the project will be mitigated, or offset, by the conditions of approval of the project imposed upon the developer.
Ultimately in the case involving the Chandi Enterprises truck stop in Bloomington, that mitigated negative declaration did not adequately address the manner in which water run-off from the site, which will include rainwater washing over the vehicles and the pavement, taking with it fuel spillage, both gasoline and diesel, petroleum products, solvents, and other chemicals that will then be injected directly into the ground without any form of treatment, ultimately percolating down into the water table.
In the county’s initial study, officials basically said that any water quality issues will be handled after the project is approved during the final permitting process. No plans for treatment or containment were made openly available to the public.
Greg Young, a Bloomington resident and board member of the West Valley Water District, which supplies water to Bloomington, began inquiries some time ago about what methodology would be used to ensure water run-off from the project would not contaminate the local water supply. At present, there is no storm drain system in that area of Bloomington.
“As a water board member, I wanted to find out what they would be doing to treat the water before putting it into ground,” Young told the Sentinel. “That turned into a two-month long odyssey to get a simple answer to what is a pretty simple question.”
Under guidelines set up by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, projects that will result in the contamination of stormwater washing over them must obtain an MS4 general permit. An MS4 permit is designed to reduce the amount of sediment and other pollutants entering state waters from or through stormwater systems. Entities regulated by the MS4 general permit must develop a stormwater pollution prevention program and adopt what is referred to in governmental parlance as best practices.
Young sensed early on that he was getting stonewalled, he said.
“They had a traffic study, and an air quality study and a noise study, but there was nothing on the county website on the subject of the impact on groundwater,” Young said. “I asked and asked again for the water quality mitigation report relating to the project, and then started making my inquiries in writing. I was trying to corner them and get a straight answer to what they had done to obtain from the State Water Resources Board a permit for a stormwater discharge permit. The MS4 permit is a broad permit, and the county had not obtained one for this project. I asked for answers based on what they are supposed to do according to the permit the county has. What I was asking for was the water quality mitigation report the county was required to do, as this project was listed as a priority type in the overall MS4 permit. After three emails, the third of which I will admit was rather strident, someone finally did get back to me. This is what they said: ‘We cannot release that to you because the county doesn’t own that document. We do not have the permission of the developer/consultant to release that to the public. You can view it in person if you want, but only if you agree to not take pictures of it or make copies, and someone will need to monitor you the whole time you are examining the document.’”
Continuing, Young said, “So, I had no other alternative really, and I agreed to those terms. That was how I was able to get to the water quality mitigation plan document and see it, which wasn’t all that substantial. The whole section was pretty thorough when it came to listing out in substantial detail the types of pollutants that are going to come off this project, but there was nothing about mitigation other than that the project would have a giant infiltration chamber.
“I wanted to see what there was other than this chamber to treat the water before it goes into the ground,” Young went on. “Mind you, this run-off is going to be water with grease, oil, solvents, gasoline, diesel fuel, radiator fluid, transmission fluid and the like of which is to get washed into the system, this infiltration tank. So I asked, ‘How is that going to be treated?’ It was at that point that the county fessed up and told me, ‘There is basically nothing in the way of a filtration process. It’s just the run-off being collected into the chamber and then it is just merged into the soil.’ Soils have a finite capacity to screen out pollutants. Clayier soils prevent contaminants from migrating deep into the soil and lessen the chance they will reach the water table. But for that to occur, you need soil that is composed of 40 percent to 60 percent clay, and most of the coring samples from the project site showed only traces of clay. Contaminated water will move through sand very quickly. If you keep pouring contaminated water into the ground, sooner or later that will force all of the pollutants down into the water table.”
A consultant working for Chandi confidently declared that the water table would remain safe using that methodology, Young said, on the theory that the ground would serve as a filter through which the water would pass but the contaminants would be caught. “He talked about it like he had found the cure for cancer and he said that as the run-off goes though all these layers of sand, the contaminants would get captured,” Young said.
Young expressed skepticism at that, since he is knowledgeable about the efforts to remove perchlorate from the local water table after that chemical was released into the ground in the Rialto area in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. The United States Environmental Protection Agency has since declared the area of contamination to be a Superfund site, and it is believed that the effort to purge the local aquifer of the cancer-causing agent which, when consumed in even minute quantities, wreaks havoc to the thyroid gland, will take the better part of the next century.
“The soil in the middle of the valley is super sandy,” Young said. “Letting all the storm run-off from a truck stop servicing up to 36 trucks at any given time, with underground gasoline tanks and above-ground diesel tanks, run through the soil is not a cure. The contaminants will get pushed further down into the soil. Things will just accumulate, and over time it will get worse. In 40 or 50 years a soil and water table remediation effort will cost hundreds of millions if not a billion dollars.”
Attempts to get the West Valley Water District involved in examining the matter were made, but opposition to this emerged from the West Valley board president, Channing Hawkins, who is a staff member with Fifth District Supervisor Joe Baca, Jr. Hawkins nixed having the water district he heads look into the matter because Baca, like his colleagues on the board of supervisors – Fourth District Supervisor and Chairman Curt Hagman, Third District Supervisor Dawn Rowe, Second District Supervisor Janice Rutherford and First District Supervisor Paul Cook – are now or will soon be recipients of largesse put up by Chandi Enterprises owner Nachhattar Singh Chandi.
At this week’s meeting held on Tuesday. April 6, the item for the consideration of the Chandi Enterprises truck stop was pushed to the end of the agenda, such that it was the last and, at one hour 22 minutes and 22 seconds, the most lengthy matter considered by the board of supervisors during its 4 hour, 27 minute and 45 second convocation.
Colton Joint Unified School District Superintendent Dr. Frank Miranda spoke to the board of supervisors on Tuesday about what he said was his “concern for students attending schools operating near the proposed project.” Before Miranda made his remarks, Terry Howell, the school district’s general counsel, ceded his time to Dr. Miranda. Miranda said the proximity of the truck stop to Crestmore Elementary School, a quarter of a mile away, Walter Zimmerman Elementary School, a quarter of a mile away and Slover Mountain High School, a half mile away, presented safety issues. Miranda noted the district also owned the 28 acres immediately adjoining the project site. Miranda said the district had reviewed the project proposal and submitted in “good faith” input with regard to the plans, expecting a substantive reply. Chandi Enterprises did not respond until March 1, he said, indicating the district’s “concerns still have not been addressed adequately.” Those concerns extended to, Miranda said, traffic, the physical endangerment of students, as well as air quality impacts and above-ground diesel tanks at the site.
Just as Miranda was getting to a request that Chandi Enterprises be required to do a complete and comprehensive environmental impact report for the project, he was cut off by Clerk of the Board Lynna Monell because he had at that point exceeded three minutes. Despite the consideration that Howell had conceded his speaking time to Miranda, Hagman, as board chairman did not allow Miranda to continue, keeping Miranda from getting his request that an environmental impact report be completed for the project on the record.
Bloomington Municipal Advisory Council Member Angela McLain read into the record a statement from Diane Mendez-Cantu, the chairwoman of the Bloomington Municipal Advisory Council. McLain quoted Mendez-Cantu as saying, “When the Chandi project was originally proposed, the Bloomington Municipal Advisory Commission fully supported it. We were excited about this project and welcomed the Chandi Group into our community. Well, we were all fooled. What this project has morphed into is a full-blown truck stop, with forty big-rig truck spots, seven diesel bays, above-ground fuel tanks and truck scales, right next to 30 acres of residentially-zoned property. This is not what Bloomington needs or wants.”
According to Mendez-Cantu, the Chandi Group had engaged in a “bait and switch” deception of the county and Bloomington’s residents. “The project is not what was originally proposed,” McLain read from Mendez-Cantu’s written statement. “It is dangerous for our residents to have a project of this magnitude in the center of our community, bringing in more truck traffic per day than the last six warehouses built in and around our community combined.”
Roxanne Nabozo, a Bloomington resident, questioned the wisdom of putting diesel fuel tanks above ground.
Gary Grossich, a member of the Bloomington Municipal Advisory Council, told the board of supervisors, “You are giving the developer a blank check to open one of the largest truck stops in the area with virtually no conditions placed on the project. The county appears to be taking the see no evil speak no evil and hear no evil approach while pretending this is not a full blown truck stop while all the documents and facts say it is. The 6,410 daily vehicle trips shown in the traffic study are more than six Bloomington warehouses combined, and yet no significant mitigation? A truck stop belongs along the freeway, not in a neighborhood surrounded on three sides by residential zoning.”
The board was about to give permission to the Chandi Group to proceed with a project “you would never support if it was proposed in your community,” Grossich said.
Eric Scott a former member of the Bloomington Municipal Advisory Council said members of the Bloomington community had given the Chandi Group input on what was deemed an acceptable use of the site, and that Chandi responded with a project that was diametrically opposite of what was requested.
“The safety of the residents of Bloomington is again threatened, the health of the residents of Bloomington is again threatened and the quality of life of the residents of Bloomington is again affected,” Scott said.
Ultimately, the board of supervisors gave unanimous approval to the project, dubbed the Bloomington Commercial Center.
The meeting concluded shortly after the hearing on the project ended. A number of Bloomington residents, anxious to speak with Baca, waited in the foyer of the county administrative building outside the board meeting chambers to question him about his vote. Baca, however, along with Hagman, rushed past them, determined to speak with Nachhattar Singh Chandi, the owner, president and chief executive officer of Chandi Enterprises, to arrange for the reception of political donations.
Chandi, whose corporation’s headquarters are located in Indio, has done extensive development in Riverside County, where he has established himself as one of the most prolific donors to elected officials there. Chandi has bragged that he made more than $1 million in donations in four years. Having recently discovered the pay-to-play environment in San Bernardino County, he has recently redirected a considerable degree of his company’s developmental focus northward. Previously, he made substantial donations to Paul Cook while he was a member of Congress prior to his election to the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors last year. Chandi has shown dexterity in the way in which he makes donations to politicians, and has used others through whom those donations are delivered. In this way, members of the board of supervisors are confident they can depend on Chandi to deliver to them substantial amounts of money, far in excess of the $4,700 per person cap put on donors to members of the board of supervisors in San Bernardino County.
Hagman, the board chairman, is contemplating making an exit from the board of supervisors when his current term is up in 2022, and is mulling a run for the California State Senate or Congress. He is hopeful that he can touch Chandi for $200,000 in donations.
Likewise, Baca believes that Chandi will endow his campaign war chest with at least $100,000.
On the Chandi Enterprises side of the equation, the company has hired Roger Hernandez, who served in the California Assembly at the same time that Curt Hagman and Paul Cook were also Assembly members, to lobby them and assist in conveying money to them, both in the form of political donations and other gratuities.
Baca believes that Chandi will come through with money earmarked for him based not only on his vote on Tuesday, but as a result of an unstated commitment between the two that Baca will support any further projects the Chandi Group undertakes in San Bernardino’s unincorporated communities, and most tellingly, the manner in which Baca was willing and was able to use his staff member, Channing Hawkins, to squelch the West Valley Water District’s exploration of the methodology that will be used to divert contaminant-laden run-off from the project into the ground without treatment. By allowing Chandi to go with the least expensive method of dealing with the stormwater run-off – simply diverting it untreated into the water table – Chandi Enterprises saved hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Toni Merrihew, the chief financial officer for the Chandi Group, during Tuesday’s meeting signaled to the members of the board of supervisors that they can count on her boss, Nachhattar Singh Chandi, coming through with some mega-donations in the future if the Bloomington Commercial Center were to be approved. “The Chandi Family is known for their generosity to the communities in which we do business,” Merrihew said.
Merrihew somewhat obliquely acknowledged what many of the project’s opponents said, that the Chandi Group had initially proposed a far different undertaking than what was ultimately approved by the board of supervisors.
“We made many revisions to the site design for different reasons, project economics, changing interests in prospective tenants, but one thing that has not changed from Day One when we put the project together: we knew it would be a gas station and we knew we wanted to have a truck fueling station,” Merrihew said, indicating that the Chandi Group assumed from the outset that Bloomington is fated to be a trucking-oriented community. “The reason for that was clear when we drove the area and saw the number of trucks that are here. When we see the warehouses that are in your community, we knew that it made sense. The final design that we’ve come up with is bright, its attractive, it’s welcoming.”
Merrihew minimized, as best she could, the big rig-centric aspect of the project.
“It’s intended to be a neighborhood center,” she said. “The project is not designed to entice truck drivers to pull in and stay for long periods. We don’t have lounge areas, nor are we affiliated with any of the major truck stop companies. What we are looking to do is just provide a convenient stop for those trucks that are already in the neighborhood.”
Merrihew did not address reports that Chandi Enterprises intends to approach Amazon and FedEx and cut them deals for fueling contracts, which will bring their traffic from Fontana and Rialto to Bloomington to use its truck stop.
She said the project will “generate new jobs” and serve as means of improving the local economy “in the way of sales tax revenue. Gas tax revenues are are a big economic incentive to cities and communities.”
Merrihew said the Bloomington truck stop would be a success. “This isn’t our first rodeo,” she said.
Speaking to how the project started out as one thing – a retail center that was to center around a restaurant – and ended up as another – a truck stop without a restaurant – Merrihew denied that the Chandi Group had engaged in bait and switch tactics. It was just that a truck stop is the best that can be had in Bloomington, she said.
“We know that the community would like to see retail stores and restaurants in new development,” she said. “Honestly, so would I, but we’ve spoken with a lot of real estate brokers, pre-COVID and now during this situation, and at the present time we’ve got a lot of ‘nos’ on the area. People don’t like to hear this, but when the national retailers look at an area, they look at the demographics and what it will support, and right now they’re telling us that we just don’t have – they use the word retail gravity. We just don’t have that here.”
Young said he believes the community will come to regret the action the board of supervisors took on Tuesday, but that day will come long after the current set of politicians who okayed the project are out of the picture.
“They rushed through with a negative declaration on this, and the grave potential of what this will do to the groundwater beneath it is unmitigated,” Young said. “There was a really embarrassing moment when the documentation for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act was examined, and it was clear they had used material that was copied and pasted from a previous document for a different project in Sun Valley, in a different county. That was an out-and-out misrepresentation. The county did not question those documents.”
Young said, “This project evolved over a two-year period and they began and ended the environmental assessment long before they got to the final version. They did not bother to update the study before they put the draft out there to be certified and rushed through the negative declaration. At the meeting when the superintendent of the Colton School District said that the issues that had been raised were not satisfactorily addressed, the board of supervisors didn’t bat an eye. The actual documentation that was provided in conjunction with this project was shoddy as hell, with documents that cut right to the heart of the threat to regional groundwater hidden from the public. The county relied upon a consultant handpicked by the developer to carry out what essentially became the basis for the environmental certification of the project, and the county land use staff, the county planning commission and the board of supervisors were provided with only what that consultant wanted them to see.
“They are going to allow contaminated water to go straight into the ground untreated with only the interruption of an infiltration chamber,” Young continued. “They are just going to let dirty rainwater be infiltrated straight into the soil. They are not cleaning that water before it goes into the ground and in 30 or 40 years, in every square inch of the valley, we won’t be able to use the water below us because it will have been poisoned. Instead of forcing the developer to spend $500,000 now, they are going to make it so the county’s future taxpayers will have to spend $500 million or more later.”
Young said he had special concern with regard to Supervisor Baca, who represents Bloomington on the board of supervisors. The other board members, he said, do not represent Bloomington or San Bernardino County’s Mid-Valley, and one could anticipate that they would not have the local population’s best interests at heart.
“I was hoping Joe Baca, Jr. might do the right thing and convince his colleagues that we need to be very careful about this,” Young said. “Basically he went along with the developer on this project over the concerns of the community. He did not fight to get any of the potential sales revenue to be designated for the community and to offset the problems this project is going to bring. All the revenue will go into the county general fund. If he did not wish to stop the project or did not feel he had the votes to do so, he could have at least tried to get some of the funds designated for the community. At one point, Mr. Baca did try to push the developer to add the restaurant pad back into the project, but went along with staff who said they could not make any changes to the site plan at this time. Ultimately, he took at face value the word of someone who appeared to be misrepresenting things, and did not demand the substance of that representation to be included in the approval. Time will tell if Mr. Chandi will ever keep his verbal promise.
“The long term impact on this will run into the hundreds of millions of dollars,” Young lamented. “Sadly, this is another example of a supervisor not standing with the community. There are many people in Bloomington who had hope that Mr. Baca would be different than his predecessor, who engaged in selling us out to the highest donor on a regular basis.”
At the February 18 county planning commission meeting at which the project was considered, six Bloomington residents spoke in opposition to the project. A common theme in most of the statements related to the unsuitability of the site as a truck stop. The planning commission voted 4-to-0 to recommend to the board of supervisors that it approve the project. Kareem Gongora, Baca’s appointment to the commission, abstained.
Heidi Duron, the county’s planning director, at this week’s board of supervisors meeting said, “You can see that while there is parking and services offered as convenience for trucks, the project is a commercial center that will serve the Bloomington community at large with auto fueling and drive-thru restaurants.”
Neither Duron nor Chandi Enterprises’ environmental consultant Chuck Holcomb addressed the manner in which an infiltration chamber was to be used to collect stormwater run-off from the project, and neither offered an explanation of the basis upon which Chandi Enterprises had obtained a water discharge permit to inject that contaminated water into the regional aquifer.
Deputy County Counsel Jason Searles was assigned by the county’s top lawyer, County Counsel Michelle Blakemore, to vet the project from a legal standpoint. Searles is said to have had misgivings about the project and whether its approval would withstand a legal challenge on environmental certification grounds. Blakemore, whose function during her tenure as county counsel has brought her face-to-face with multiple circumstances in which bribes and kickbacks are being channeled to members of board of supervisors, has advised her staff that if they want to keep their jobs, they will need to look the other way when indications of graft on the part of their political masters, the county supervisors, loom into view.

The ownership of the Arrowhead Water Bottling Company has changed, and with it the identity of its parent company. Unclear yet is how or if the ownership shift will change the company’s controversial drafting of water from the San Bernardino National Forest.
Last month, Nestlé S.A., a Swiss multinational food and drink processing conglomerate corporation headquartered in Vevey, Vaud, Switzerland shed its Nestlé Waters North America division, selling that portion of its operations pertaining to bottling drinking water in the Unitied States and Canada to One Rock Capital Partners, LLC, in partnership with Metropoulos & Company in what was represented as a $4.3 billion transaction.
One Rock and Metropoulos obtained from Nestlé Waters North America its American/Canadian water portfolio including everything but the North American marketing rights to Perrier. Now in the possession of Poland Spring® Brand 100% Natural Spring Water, Deer Park® Brand 100% Natural Spring Water, Ozarka® Brand 100% Natural Spring Water, Ice Mountain® Brand 100% Natural Spring Water, Zephyrhills® Brand 100% Natural Spring Water, Arrowhead® Brand Mountain Spring Water, Pure Life® and Splash, One Rock and Metropoulos have consolidated those holding under the name BlueTriton Brands.
“I am very excited to join with my One Rock partners and lead this company as we begin a new chapter together as BlueTriton, building on the rich heritage of our historic, iconic, and beloved brands,” said Dean Metropoulos, chairman and interim chief executive officer of BlueTriton Brands. “We have all become increasingly aware of how critical our products and their rapidly evolving innovations are to human wellness and our communities. Our unique U.S. and Canadian platforms provide us opportunities to touch every consumer, in all facets of their lives, and we look forward to strengthening our bonds with consumers and communities by leading with innovation and relevance.”
Tony W. Lee, the managing partner of One Rock, said, “The company has an established reputation as a top provider of water and hydration that is favored by consumers across North America. We see significant opportunity to further the market leadership of BlueTriton and look forward to building on the strong foundation that exists in the business today.”
Triton is a god of the sea in classical Greek mythology. Combined with the color blue, representing water, the new name reflects, the company said, its “role as a guardian of sustainable resources and a provider of fresh water.”
That representation may be put to the test with regard to its Arrowhead Brand holding. There is uncertainty as to whether Nestlé Waters North America had rights to the water it obtained high in the San Bernardino Mountains which it bottled and sold under the Arrowhead brand.
Over the past five years, the Arrowhead water withdrawals in the San Bernardino National Forest have been under a great deal of scrutiny. These withdrawals occur at the Strawberry Creek headwaters around 5,000 feet elevation using a series of mountainside horizontal borehole wells and tunnels that annually drain multi-millions of gallons of forest groundwater through a two-mile pipeline that terminates at a holding area along Old Waterman Canyon Road, above the City of San Bernardino. The water is then picked-up by large tanker trucks and hauled to a bottling plant. The groundwater withdrawals are reported to the San Bernardino Municipal Valley Water District, which two months ago was undertaking to initiate litigation against Nestlé Waters of North America over those withdrawals. On March 2, 2020 the San Bernardino Municipal Valley Water District Board of Directors met in closed session to discuss pending litigation against Nestlé Waters of North America, Inc. Upon the board reconvening, it was announced that the board gave direction to legal counsel, but no further information has been forthcoming.
There are questions as to whether Nestlé formerly had or BlueTriton currently has a legitimate claim to and any future guaranteed access to the water that is the centerpiece of the Arrowhead Spring Water Bottling Enterprise.
The California State Water Board, which has ultimate determinative authority over water right issues throughout the Golden State, has an ongoing investigation into the Arrowhead operation and the company’s water claims. The board’s authority extends to water on federal lands.
Decades ago, Nestlé inherited the Arrowhead water bottling operation from Perrier, which had itself purchased the operation from BCI-Arrowhead. Previous to that, corporate predecessor Arrowhead Puritas was extracting water from Strawberry Canyon based on a ten-year permit issued by the National Forest Service in 1978 and renewed annually at a cost of $524 per year. Arrowhead Puritas was bought out by Beatrice Foods and then morphed into the BCI-Arrowhead Drinking Water Company, which acquired the still-active permit. The BCI-Arrowhead Drinking Water Company applied to extend that permit and, in 1987, while that application process was still uncompleted, Perrier purchased the BCI-Arrowhead Drinking Water Company. The then-pending water extraction permit renewal required a U.S. Forest Service review of the water drafting arrangement and its environmental/ecological impact, which at that point the U.S. Forest Service did not have the immediately available resources to carry out. In a gesture of compromise, Perrier was allowed, pending the eventual Forest Service review, to continue to operate in Strawberry Canyon by simply continuing to pay the $524-per year fee to perpetuate the water extraction under the terms of the expired permit. In 1992, when Nestlé acquired the Arrowhead brand from Perrier, it inherited the Strawberry Canyon operation and continued to pay the $524 annual fee without renewing the permit, which at that time existed under the name of the “Arrowhead Mountain Spring Water Co,” one that was never listed legally in corporate filings, but which is currently operating under Nestlé Waters of North America, Inc.
In 2017, the California State Water Board’s initial investigation limited Nestlé’s temporarily authorized water withdrawals in the San Bernardino Mountains to 26 acre-feet a year.
An acre foot equals 325,851.4 gallons or 43,560 cubic feet, the amount of water that would cover one acre, 43,560 square feet, to the depth of one foot.
The 26 acre-feet allotment is about 20 percent of the 192 acre-feet (62.56 million gallons) Nestlé was previously siphoning from Strawberry Canyon annually. Records indicate that Nestlé has not complied with the reduced authorized water orders, and that the company took 144 acre-feet in 2017, 141 acre-feet in 2018 and 210 acre-feet in 2019, with no indication of compliance in 2020 or 2021.
In this way, Nestlé’s Arrowhead Spring Water bottling division was potentially vulnerable to enforcement action and hefty fines. BlueTriton has inherited that vulnerability. Moreover, continued depletion of the Strawberry Canyon water source is likely to prompt the state water board to make an exhaustive review of the water rights pertaining to the Arrowhead Spring Water operation that grew out of that company’s corporate predecessor’s claims to the water drawn at the 5,000 foot elevation in Strawberry Canyon.
The Sentinel’s review of the public record indicates those rights were erroneously conflated with a spring much lower down the mountain at the 2,000 foot elevation proximate to the historic Arrowhead Springs Hotel. It thus would appear that Nestlé did not, in fact, have a valid claim to the Arrowhead water it sold to One Rock Capital Partners, LLC and Metropoulos & Company.
In a recent correspondence obtained by the Sentinel, state water board officials indicated that the new owners would need to comply with California laws and regulations and be the respondent to the water rights being investigated.
The US Forest Service permit for the Arrowhead pipeline expires in August 2021. According to the permit terms, the permit is non-transferable; the new owner would need to reapply for the permit with conditions attached. If the water rights case rules against Nestlé/BlueTriton and a determination that environmental damage has been done to Strawberry Canyon and/or forest property dependent upon the aquifer Strawberry Creek supplies, specific liability on Nestlé’s/BlueTriton’s part could follow, including accountability for making false claims to the federal government to obtain a permit. This legal trouble was only a fraction of the liabilities that were mounting for Nestlé Waters North American water bottling operations in the U.S. and Canada prior to the sale to One Rock Capital Partners, LLC and Metropoulos & Company. Across the country there was further litigation over Nestlé’s water drafting including a class action lawsuit involving Poland Springs in Maine.
Metropoulos & Company publicist, Hannah Arnold, has not responded to the Sentinel’s inquiries as to whether the company’s officers are aware of the full extent to which the rights to the water in Strawberry Canyon are under challenge and if the company would be willing to forsake that part of BlueTriton’s water portfolio if the California State Water Board makes a determination that the company’s claim is invalid.
