My colleagues and I would like to take this a step further by designating it as a wilderness area. There are other reasons why it is absolutely critical that we preserve this beautiful place in America. Because the area is located near the busy city of San Diego and on the U.S.-Mexico border. the danger of pollution not only from smog and other toxins but also from binational travelers is very real. Moreover. the border location of this region is the focus of important law enforcement and border efforts to curtail illegal immigration. These additional strains can cause very real degradation to our environment. Finally. the area presents unique fire management challenges.
