Body
BACKGROUND:
On March 6, 2018, the consultant engineer submitted a San Bernardino County (County) scoping agreement for the project, in the County area just west of the Rialto City limits. The City provided comments on the scope on March 6, 2018. It was followed by the 1st TIA prepared for the County on April 23, 2019. The City completed a review of the TIA and sent comments on April 29, 2019. It was followed by a second TIA on May 20, 2019 and a 3rd TIA on November 11, 2019.
