Източна Калифорния Източна Калифорния (на английски: Eastern California) не е точно определен термин, който в общи линии се отнася за земите на щата Калифорния в САЩ на изток от хребетите на планинската верига Сиера Невада или за най-източните окръзи на Калифорния, които са: - Модок - Ласън - Плумъс - Сиера - Невада - Плейсър - Ел Дорадо - Алпайн - Моно - Иньо - Сан Бернардино - Ривърсайд - Импириъл Климатът в Източна Калифорния е изключително сух и може да бъде определен като пустинен. В Източна Калифорния се намира най-горещата и ниска част на Северна Америка: Долината на смъртта, която съставя едноименния Национален парк. Източна Калифорния е с ниска гъстота на населението освен района на езерото Тахо.

The study found that many amphibole particles in the area meet the counting rule criteria used by the EPA for chemical and morphological limits, but do not meet morphological requirements for commercial-grade-asbestos. The executive summary pointed out that even particles that do not meet requirements for commercial-grade-asbestos may be a health threat and suggested a collaborative research effort to assess health risks associated with "Naturally Occurring Asbestos".[29] In 2003 after construction of the Oak Ridge High School (El Dorado Hills, CA) soccer field, the federal Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry found that some student athletes, coaches and school workers received substantial exposures. The inside of Oak Ridge High School needed to be cleaned of dust.[28] CommunitiesEdit CitiesEdit Unincorporated communitiesEdit - Auburn Lake Trails - Cameron Park - Camino - Camp Sacramento - Cold Springs - Coloma - Cool - Diamond Springs - Echo Lake - El Dorado - El Dorado Hills - Garden Valley - Georgetown - Greenwood - Grizzly Flats - Happy Valley - Meyers - Kyburz - Outingdale - Phillips - Pilot Hill - Pollock Pines - Rescue - Shingle Springs - Somerset - Strawberry - Tahoma - Twin Bridges See alsoEdit NotesEdit - ^ Only larceny-theft cases involving property over $400 in value are reported as property crimes. - ^ Other = Some other race + Two or more races - ^ Native American = Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander + American Indian or Alaska Native - ^ a b Percentage of registered voters with respect to total population.
