California senator proposes using border crossing tolls to clean up Tijuana River Valley.

California State Senator Steve Padilla has introduced Senate Bill 10, which proposes using tolls from the new Otay Mesa East border crossing to fund environmental clean-up efforts in the Tijuana River Valley. The bill aims to allocate funds for water treatment and restoration projects, addressing severe pollution issues in the area. The tolls, which are expected to generate up to $25 million annually, would support efforts to mitigate the impact of raw sewage and industrial waste affecting the region.
