Proposal for CEQA Analysis July 26, 2021 Garry Avenue Business Park Paae 7 quantitative (dispersion modeled) HRA will be required and would be based on truck data from the project. specific traffic analysis. Cancer risk due to air toxic exposures at the project will be estimated using methodology that conforms with SCAQMD requirements for mobile source emissions. Cancer risk will be estimated using the most recent OEHHA methodology that assess the cancer risk exposure to the following groups: 3rd trimester, infants, children, adults 16-30 years, and a cumulative 30.25-year exposure. This proposal assumes dispersion modeling will be necessary for purposes of budgeting. 2.4. Historical Resources Assessment (opffonal) As the existing buildings are over 45 years old, an assessment for historical resources is required under CEQA. An architectural historian will conduct property -specific research in order to accurately characterize construction and development history of the subject property. Historical research will include review of building permits, city directories, historical aerial photographs, Sanborn fire insurance maps, historical photographs, newspaper articles, and other primary and secondary source materials as necessary. Best industry practices dictate research into assessor's record. We will request a search from Environmental Data Resources (EDR) to obtain historical Sanborn fire insurance maps, historical aerial images, and city directories. We will conduct a field survey to examine and document the property. Digital photography will be used to document the features and characteristics of the buildings, as well as their general setting. The field survey will allow for the accurate depiction of each property's condition, historic integrity, alterations, and changes over time. Upon completion of the site visit and research, we will prepare a five to ten page Historical Evaluation Memorandum for the property pursuant to CEQA, which will include consideration of the potential individual eligibility of the subject property under federal and state criteria of significance. If the property is found individually eligible under federal or state criteria, the Memorandum will include a list of character -defining features. In compliance with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) guidelines for cultural resources surveys, evaluationfindings will be documented on California Department of Parks & Recreation (DPR) series 523 forms, which will be included as an appendix. We assume permit history will be readily available. We assume that research regarding property development history and alterations will be readily attainable and discernible, requiring no more than four hours of labor. More extensive research may require a budget supplement. 2.5. Assembly Bill 52/Senate Bill 18 Consultation (optional) AB 52 consultation would be required if the project requires a standalone CEQA compliance document —in this case an IS/MND—and SB 18 is required for General Plan Amendments (and other nonapplicable entitlements). Therefore, if the project applicant decides to proceed with processing the project before the City completes the General Plan Update and EIR, AB 52 and SB 18 consultations would be required. EPD will assist the Cityin completing the Native American consultation process under AB 52 and SB 18. The City, as the Lead Agency, is responsible for initiating the AB 52 and SB18 consultation processes; however, EPD will assist by contacting the Native American Heritage Commission and local tribes, requesting the Sacred Land File search on behalf of the City, and preparing the AB 52 and SB 18 notification letters for the City's review and approval. EPD will prepare and distribute all mailings and will attend any Native American consultations, if requested by the City. EPD will provide mitigation measures, agreed upon as necessary by the City to reduce potential impacts to a less than significant level.
