MITIGATION MONITORING PLAN INTRODUCTION Section 15097 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines requires all state and local agencies to establish monitoring or reporting plans for projects approved by a public agency whenever approval involves the adoption of either a "mitigated negative declaration" or specified environmental findings related to environmental impact reports. The mitigation monitoring plan (MMP) contained herein is intended to satisfy the requirements of CEQA as they relate to the Subsequent Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) for the West End Loft Project/Specific Development 80 (SD80). This MMP is intended for use by City staff to ensure compliance with mitigation measures during project implementation. Mitigation measures identified in this MMP were identified in the Subsequent IS/MND prepared for the proposed project. The Subsequent IS/MND presents a detailed set of mitigation measures that will be implemented throughout the lifetime of the project. Mitigation is defined by CEQA as a measure which: . Avoids the impact altogether by not taking a certain action or parts of an action. . Minimizes impacts by limiting the degree or magnitude of the action and its implementation. . Rectifies the impact by repairing, rehabilitating, or restoring the impacted environment. . Reduces or eliminates the impact over time by preservation and maintenance operations during the life of the project. . Compensates for the impact by replacing or providing substitute resources or environments. Note: Sections 21083 and 21087, Public Resources Code; Reference: Sections 21002, 21002.1, 21081, and 211 OO(c), Public Resources Code. The intent of the MMP is to ensure the effective implementation and enforcement of adopted mitigation measures and permit conditions. The MMP will provide for monitoring of construction activities as necessary and in-the-field identification and resolution of environmental concerns. Compliance Checklist City staff will coordinate monitoring and document the implementation of mitigation measures. City staff will be responsible for fully understanding and effectively implementing the mitigation measures contained within the MMP. Table 1 of this report identifies the mitigation measure, the monitoring action for the mitigation measure, the responsible party for the monitoring action, and timing of the monitoring action. 75c'rZO
