He reviewed the sites being considered: NAS Miramar, East Miramar, and Otay

Miramar site when NAS Miramar becomes available, and will be made in March to
the City of San Diego and participating agencies.

surrounding communities, such as Scripps Ranch, Santee and Poway; transportation
impacts on the 1-15 corridor and adequacy of mass transit; and hours of opera-
tion for an international airport.

Fred Pierson, Community Planning Liaison for Miramar Naval Air Station, stated
the U.S. Navy has no plans to vacate Miramar Naval Air Station and reviewed the
importance of this site to the military's defense readiness. He cited the
intense use of an international airport would be incompatible with the
surrounding communities and the environmentally sensitive plant and animal habi-
tats which would be destroyed with expansion to the east.

of the Miramar East site; publishing an article in Poway Today with a summary of
SANDAG's draft report; and setting a public hearing to receive input from the
community regarding SANDAG's recommendation.
