Lario Staging Area — Attraction in Irwindale

Beautiful place! I completely without question enjoy this place better than my tiny little 3x3 patio. I don't know how the "people with homes" without any indignation mention the community currently residing there.

Despite the negatives, it is still a cool place for walking, bike riding, and a pit stop to just chill for awhile. No overnight camping. Park closes at 4pm in winter and fall season, 6pm in...

Eaton Fire Debris to be processed next to San Gabriel River, risking groundwater contamination. Hazardous and toxic debris from the Eaton Fire will be trucked to Lario Park at 15701 E. Foothill Blvd. This is next to the San Gabriel River, just above the Santa Fe Dam. If there is a huge rain, debris could get into the groundwater. Trump ordered that the EPA and Army Corps of Engineers have a site ready in 5 days and start removing hazardous material from the burned area, so they jumped and decided to use land already owned by the Army Corps. Unfortunately, this is at a location that could be subject...
