Community Plan Exemption Checklist <br />City of Santa Ana Gary Avenue Business Park Project <br />Table N-3: Noise Measurements <br />Site <br />Location <br />Leq <br />Lmin <br />Lmax <br />Time <br />(dBA) <br />(dBA) <br />(dBA) <br />1 <br />Along the east side of East Garry Avenue approximately 500 <br />64.9 <br />58.5 <br />79.0 <br />1 2:00 p.m. <br />feet south of Pullman Street <br />2 <br />Along the east side of Alton Parkway approximately 700 feet <br />66.5 <br />52.2 <br />82.8 <br />12:20 p.m. <br />from the intersection of Daimler Street and Alton Parkway <br />3 <br />Along the western portion of Duryea Avenue, approximately 50�62.3 <br />57.6 <br />73.9 <br />1 2:38 p.m. <br />feet south of SR-55 <br />Source: Acoustical Assessment (Appendix K) <br />Construction <br />Project construction activities for the proposed Project are anticipated to include demolition of the existing <br />three buildings and pavement, site preparation and grading of the Project site, building construction of a <br />new 91,500 square foot light industrial building, paving of onsite driveways, parking lots and truck loading <br />area, and application of architectural coatings. Noise impacts from construction activities associated with the <br />proposed Project would be a function of the noise generated by construction equipment, equipment location <br />sensitivity of nearby land uses, and the timing and duration of the construction activities. The nearest noise <br />sensitive receptors to the Project site are the single-family homes located as near as approximately 2,200 <br />feet north of the Project site. In addition, a dialysis center is located 700 feet to the northeast of the site. <br />Section 1 8-31 A (Special Provisions) of the City's Municipal Code specifies that noise sources associated with <br />construction activities are exempt from the City's established noise standards as long as the activities do not <br />take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or any time on <br />Sunday or a federal holiday. <br />Construction noise impacts to the nearby sensitive receptors have been calculated as part of the Acoustical <br />Assessment completed for the Project included as Appendix K. Anticipated construction equipment noise <br />emissions are identified below. As shown the highest construction noise would be 66.4 dBA Leq. <br />Table N-4 Project Construction Noise Levels <br />Construction Phase <br />Receptor <br />Worst Case <br />Modeled Exterior <br />Noise Level <br />(dBA Leq) <br />Noise <br />Threshold <br />(dBA Leq) <br />Exceeded? <br />Land Use <br />Direction <br />Distance <br />(feet) <br />Commercial <br />Northeast <br />700 <br />63.5 <br />85 <br />No <br />Demolition <br />Residential <br />North <br />2,200 <br />1 53.6 <br />80 <br />No <br />Commercial <br />Northeast <br />700 <br />64.7 <br />85 <br />No <br />Site Preparation <br />Residential <br />North <br />2,200 <br />54.8 <br />80 <br />No <br />Commercial <br />Northeast <br />700 <br />64.4 <br />85 <br />No <br />Grading <br />Residential <br />North <br />2,200 <br />54.4 <br />80 <br />No <br />Building Construction <br />Commercial <br />Northeast <br />700 <br />66.4 <br />85 <br />No <br />Residential <br />North <br />2,200 <br />56.4 <br />80 <br />No <br />Commercial <br />Northeast <br />700 <br />63.6 <br />85 <br />No <br />Paving <br />Residential <br />I North <br />2,200 <br />53.7 <br />80 <br />No <br />Architectural Coating <br />Commercial <br />Northeast <br />700 <br />50.8 <br />85 <br />No <br />Residential <br />North <br />2,200 <br />40.8 <br />80 <br />No <br />Source: Acoustical Assessment (Appendix K) <br />Table N-4 shows that construction noise levels would not exceed the 85/80-dBA threshold and would not <br />exceed the City's municipal code allowable Lmax.
