There is a reference here to a Boundary Commission which is presumably not the UK one described in the article of that name? --Red King 01:24, 13 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

This snub seems to be taken entirely from http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=664 without citation...am I missing something? Possible addition: something about people drowning trying to swim around that fence. Tjm402 21:39, 3 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Beach Water Contamination

edit

For over 80 years the Tijuana River has dumped sewage and other crap into the United States. It has been an unmitigated ecological disaster. Heavy metal contamination, raw sewage and trash is measured in tens of meters in depth in the TJ River Valley which is a so called natural wildlife preserve.
This is the longest documented ecological issue of any river in the United States and it is not mentioned. It is often overlooked by the US Federal Government and the State of California.
Most of the beaches north (in the USA) of where the Tijuana River enters the Pacific Ocean are contaminated more than 70% of the year like at Imperial Beach. Unhealthful bacteria has been tracked all the way north to the mouth of the San Diego Bay. And occasionally far beyond. The US Navy Seal area in Coronado often can not train with the hazardous crap in the water.
Why has none of this been mentioned? Jrcrin001 (talk) 21:12, 6 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
