Border Field State Park
A triple border fence is being proposed along this section of the International Border between the United States and Mexico. This is a California State Park adjacent to San Diego County public lands. The wall will destroy sensitive prehistoric sites and significant historic trails, believed to be those of the Portola expedition and the Spanish padres. The entire cultural and environmental landscape of this international setting is at risk. The project consists of three parallel steel fences with a filled in freeway wide road between. The Coastal Commission unanimously rejected the proposal, but Duncan Hunter say's he will go for a presidential override to get the around the environmental process.
