San Diego 11th on national list of dog attacks on mail carriers [Breaking]
This annual list is designed to highlight the seriousness of the issue, and is often released around National Dog Bite Awareness Week, which this year starts Sunday.
In recent years, San Diego’s highest number of reported dog attacks on postal carriers happened in 2011, with 67 attacks — ranking behind only Los Angeles, which had 83 attacks that year. For a few years — rankings issued in 2011, 2012 and 2016 for attacks from the previous year — San Diego held the second place spot for the number of dog attacks. The rank climbed and dropped a notch or two, but generally landed in the top five during that rough time span.The Postal Service asked that when a letter carrier arrives at a residence, dogs should be inside or behind a fence, away from the door or in another room or on a leash.

The path it took to get there serves either as a blueprint or a cautionary tale for Western water planners. San Diego’s water is now among the most expensive in the country. That’s prompted two largely agricultural irrigation districts in the region to try to break away from the regional water supplier saying they can purchase cheaper water elsewhere. Experts say that would push costs up even more as the state sinks deeper into drought.
