Thus, the trip rates inputted into the model for these land uses are underestimated and as a result, the model incorrectly estimates the Project's operational mobile -source emissions. Un3tbstuntiatvdRrsfuction in Cum in erciul-Work Trip Length in Existing Model Review of the Project's CaIEEMod output files demonstrates that the commercial -work (C-W) trip length was manually Increased in the model without adequate justification. Asa result, the model may underestimate the Project's operational emissions. Review of the Project's CaIEEMod output files demonstrates that the Project's C-W trip length was manually increased from the default value of 16.60 miles to 40 miles (see excerpt below) (Appendix B, pp. 562, 620). As previously stated, the CalFEMod User Guide requires that any non -default values inputted most be justified.' However, review of the "User Entered Comments & Non -Default Data" table demonstrates that this change was not justified or even addressed. The DEIR and associated appendices also fail to address this reduction. Asa result, we cannot verify that this trip length is accurate and, as a result, the model should not be relied upon to determine Project significance. 31 32 Use oflncorrect Trip Purpose Percentages in Existhkq Model Review of the Project's CaIEEMod output files demonstrates that the pass -by and diverted trip percentages used in the model were manually altered without sufficient justification. As a result, the 33 model underestimates the Project's operational emissions. 'Supra, In 1, p. 7, 13. 75C-173
