ONE BROADWAY PLAZA PROJECT EIR ADDENDUM CITY OF SANTA ANA 5. Environmental Analysis source. As with the Approved Project, the implementation of mitigation measure AS-1 would ensure that exterior lighting and fixtures would ensure that lighting impacts are less than significant. The Proposed Project's would result in no changes to the non -reflective exterior building materials under the Approved Project; similarly, the Proposed Project would result in a less than significant impact to glare. 5.1.3 Adopted Mitigation Measures Applicable to the Proposed Project The following mitigation measures have been carried through from the One Broadway Plaza EIR. These mitigation measures have been incorporated into MMRP for this Addendum. Any modifications to the mitigation measures from the Certified EIR are shown as strikegh for deleted text and bold for new, inserted text. AS-1 The project proponent will ensure that all outdoor lighting and fixtures, including lighting for construction, are shielded or designed and located to minimize nighttime light spillage onto adjacent uses. Outdoor fixtures will be designed to generate less than 0.25-foot candle power of light where possible, and will direct lighting towards the interior of the project site. 5.2 AGRICULTURE AND FOREST RESOURCES 5.2.1 Summary of Previous Environmental Analysis With respect to agricultural resources, the Initial Study concluded that the Project Site is located in an urbanized area and is developed with residential and commercial uses. Soils within the Project Site are not candidates for listing as prime farmland, unique farmland, or farmland of statewide importance. In addition, the Project Site does not contain land zoned for agricultural uses nor a Williamson Act contract. No agricultural uses exist on site or adjacent to the Project Site. Therefore, no impact would occur with respect to agricultural uses, and no additional analysis is required in Certified EIR. The 2004 EIR and its corresponding Initial Study did not analyze Forestry Resources. Forestry resources are discussed below. 5.2.2 Impacts Associated with the Proposed Project In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model (1997) prepared by the California Dept. of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agriculture and farmland. In determining whether impacts to forest resources, including timberland, are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to information compiled by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection regarding the state's inventory of forest land, including the Forest and Range Assessment Project and the Forest Legacy Assessment project; and forest carbon measurement methodology provided in Forest Protocols adopted by the California Air Resources Board.
