Sustainability advocates in Southern California recently gained a new ally in an unexpected place when Austrian-Canadian autoparts/racetrack mogul Frank Stronach came out for using local suppliers.
Santa Anita will use sand from a Southern California quarry on its new conventional main track surface that is being installed this fall, track president George Haines said on Thursday.
...
The new surface will consist of 90 percent sand, using two types of sand, and 10 percent clay, which was found in nearby Corona, Calif.

The new surface will replace a foreign synthetic product.
