IT IS A FACTOR.

I APOLOGIZE FOR THE HURT THAT CAME OUT OF THAT.

THE PROPOSAL INVOLVES THE CITY PAIN $132 MILLION TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THE PROPERTY.

THE HIGH RISE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A NEW CITY HEADQUARTERS UNTIL IT WAS DISCOVERED TO BE CONTAMINATED WITH ASBESTOS.

THE DEAL COULD BE REVISITED NEXT MONTH DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE MAYOR AND CITY ATTORNEY 'S OFFICE OPPOSED IT AND SAID IT DOES NOT NEED THE CITY'S LEGAL AND FINANCIAL INTEREST.

>>> MORE NEWS FROM CITY HALL, THE COUNCIL VOTES TO EXPAND HOURS OF ONE OF THE SAFE PARKING LOTS.

OUR REPORTER EXPLAINED HOW MUCH HE MIGHT GET.

HOW MUCH SOMEONE GETS DEPENDS ON THE RING,.

SINGLE FILERS UP TO $75 MILLION WILL GET $350.

FOR AN INDIVIDUAL MAKING $250,000 A YEAR, ONLY $200.

THERE ARE TEARS FOR INDIVIDUAL AND JOINT FILERS WITH AND WITHOUT DEPENDENTS.

ATOP PAYMENT OF $1050 WOULD BE FOR A COUPLE WITH ONE DEPENDENT EARNING UP TO $150,000 A YEAR THAT COUPLES MAKING MORE THAN $500,000 A YEAR DO NOT QUALIFY PAYMENTS WOULD BE ISSUED WITH DIRECT DEPOSIT REPUBLICANS OR DEBIT CARDS.

>> A LOT OF STUFF WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO INFLATION AND PAIN FOR RENT, GAS, FOOD AND JUST BASIC NEEDS HAS BEEN VERY DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN WITH THE FAMILY OF FOUR, TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE.

SO IT IS A GREAT DEAL .

>> THE HE WAS AT HIS IN HIS CAR AND WHAT THE REBATE AND SUSPENSION OF THE GAS TAX .

>> IN MY OPINION, THEY SHOULD BE BOTH.

CUT THE GAS TAX AND GIVE US A LITTLE BIT OF RELIEF FOR INFLATION.

I THINK THAT WOULD HELP A LOT .

>> THE ANNOUNCEMENT COMES MORE THAN THREE MONTHS AFTER GOVERNOR NEWSON AND LEADERS PROMISED TO PROVIDE RELIEF IN RESPONSE TO RISING GAS PRICES AND INFLATION.

THE STATE SENATOR IS THE REPUBLICAN CHALLENGING NEWSOME IN THE NOVEMBER ELECTION AND SAYS THE RELIEF IS COMING TO MAKE LATE, DOESN'T DO ENOUGH AND IS SOUNDING A WARNING .

>> I THINK THIS COULD BE RIPE FOR FRAUD AND THOSE PEOPLE ON A FIXED INCOME OR SENIOR CITIZENS GETTING SOCIAL SECURITY CHECK, THEY DON'T FILE TAXES AND WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE .

>> IT WILL SUSPEND THE D CELL SALES TAX STARTING OCTOBER 31 FOR 12 MONTHS AND INCLUDES ADDITIONAL FUNDING TO HELP PEOPLE PAY FOR RENT AND UTILITY BILLS.

OUR ENVIRONMENT REPORTER SAYS SOME SMALLER SCALE PROJECTS ARE ALREADY HAVING A POSITIVE IMPACT.

>> WHEN MORGAN ROGERS SURVEYS THE CONCRETE LINE TIJUANA RIVER CHANNEL AS IT CROSSES THE INTERNATIONAL BORDER, HE SEES PROGRESS THIS IS WHERE TRANSITIONS TO THE NATURAL AND IT'S A GOOD VIEWPOINTS.

YOU SEE ALL THE SEDIMENT THAT HAS ACCUMULATED IS FROM THE WET SEASON .

>> HE IS A CIVIL ENGINEER IN CHARGE TO POLLUTION CONTROL ON THE U.S. SIDE OF THE BORDER AND THE CONCRETE CHANNEL AS A CONDUIT FOR POLLUTION.

>> WHEN IT RAINS, WE GET RAIN WATER AND IT CARRIES A LOT OF SEDIMENT AND TRASH.

>> WHEN IT'S NOT RAINING MOST SEWAGE TAINTED FLOWS CAN BE STOPPED BY A RELATIVELY LOW TECH SOLUTION.

>> WE HAVE A SEDIMENT BURN CONSTRUCTED WITH THE SEDIMENT DEPOSITED ON THE CONCRETE LINE -- CHANNEL.

IT'S CONSTRUCTED AND MAINTAINED BY MEXICO AND WE PROVIDE THE EQUIPMENT.

AND WHATEVER ELSE THEY NEED TO FACILITATE CONSTRUCTION THE BERM AND MAINTAINING IT .

>> YOU LOOK OVER THE SEDIMENT WALL AND THEIR STANDING WATER A FEW HUNDRED YARDS NORTH THE MEXICAN PUMP STATION PULLS MOST OF THE WATER OUT OF THE RIVER CHANNEL.

>> IT'S VERY EFFECTIVE FOR PREVENTING FLOWS FROM COMING DOWN THE RIVER AND CROSSING THE BORDER INTO THE UNITED STATES.

>> THERE ARE OTHER SMALL SUCCESS STORIES.

HE TAKES US TO A CULVERT NORTH OF THE BORDER WALL.

LOOK AT THE FENCE AND YOU CAN SEE CARS ZIPPING BY ON A MEXICAN HIGHWAY >> THIS IS ONE OF THE FIVE CANYON COLLECTORS .

>> THEY RECENTLY FIXED AND UNDERGROUND GAIT THAT WAS LOCKED IN PLACE CREATING PRESSURE WHEN SEWAGE FLOWS UNDER THE BORDER WALL.

WITH THE GATE NOW FULLY OPEN, THE FLOWS ARE EASIER TO MANAGE AND THERE'S A TRICKLE OF WATER COMING ON THIS DAY BUT IT IS HARDLY AN ISSUE.

>> THIS IS NOT SOMETHING I WOULD WORRY ABOUT.

WE WANT TO ELIMINATE ALL FLOWS BUT WE ARE HANDLING THIS ONE.

>> THE PROGRESS HAS BEEN NOTICED AND IS WELCOMED.

>> I'M VERY HAPPY WITH THE MICRO FIXES.

MICRO FIXES THAT CAN STOP FLOWS AND RESULTANT WEEKS OF CLOSURES .

>> THE MAYOR OF IMPERIAL BEACH SAYS STOPPING THE FLOW OF SEWAGE TO THE TIJUANA ESTUARY HELPS BUT THE MICRO FIXES DO NOT SOLVE THE BORDER POLLUTION PROBLEM.

HIS BEACHES HAVE BEEN POLLUTED FOR MUCH OF THE SUMMER BECAUSE OF A BROKEN MEXICAN SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT .

>> THEY DISCHARGE 30 TO 50 MILLION GALLONS OF RAW SEWAGE ON THE BEACH EVERY DAY.

IT COMES UP TO THE BEACH AS WELL AS ALL THE OTHER DISCHARGE SITES .

>> THAT IS ONE REASON THE U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY IS PUSHING FOR CONFERENCE OF SOLUTION WHICH INCLUDES PROJECTS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE U.S./MEXICO BORDER.

I HOPE TO CAPTURE THE FLOWS ACROSS THE BORDER ON LAND AND BUILD A TREATMENT PLANT THAT WORKS SOUTH OF THE BORDER.

BUT IT WILL STILL BE A COUPLE OF YEARS BEFORE ENTERING MAJOR SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANS START TO BE BUILT .

>> IT'S NOT FAST ENOUGH THAT IT IS A PRIORITY.

>> THE VICE CHAIR OF THE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS SAYS IT IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THE FIX IS COMING.

FOR COMMUNITIES THAT HAVE LONG ENTERED THE PUBLIC HEALTH CRISIS AND SHE SAYS FOCUSING ON POLLUTION POSTINGS DURING THE DRY SUMMER MONTHS SHOULD NOT BECOME A DISTRACTION .

>> THE TEST, LET'S NOT MAKE IT ABOUT BUSINESSES OR COMMUNITY BUT ABOUT OUR COMMUNITY SAFE AND HEALTHY SO EVERYONE CAN ENJOY THE BEAUTY OF OUR BEACHES IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.

>> IT WOULD BE VERY, VERY DIFFICULT ESPECIALLY WITH THE PRICE OF DAY CARE AND EVEN FEEDING SOMEBODY ELSE.
