	March Air Reserve Base - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		In 2004, it was announced that air freight giant DHL was considering the base for its new Southern California hub; however, competition from nearby San Bernardino International Airport and Ontario International Airport, as well as opposition from residents of fast-growing Riverside and Moreno Valley, reduced the viability of its bid.
		In the base the population was spread out with 37.0% under the age of 18, 8.1% from 18 to 24, 35.1% from 25 to 44, 14.9% from 45 to 64, and 4.9% who were 65 years of age or older.

		Based on this concentration and assuming 1 L/day and 2 L/day ingestion (dermal contact was not considered a health threat at these concentrations and inhalation is not an issue because boron is not volatile) of tap water for children and adults, the exposure dose for boron is 0.058 mg/kg/day and 0.037 mg/kg/day, respectively.
