Bella Terra Residential Community and Temple Project Psomas will also review the Project plans,design,and Traffic Memorandum to evaluate operational noise impacts to offsite sensitive receptors (i.e.,the residential units located to the north, south, east,and west). Onsite noise sources such as the operation of HVAC units and common residential activities will be qualitatively evaluated against the standards contained in the City's General Plan and Noise Ordinances. Increases in traffic noise on local roadways will also be discussed and quantified. If mitigation measures are required to minimize noise and vibration impacts, recommend measures will be coordinated with the City. Lastly,a discussion on aircraft noise emanating from the John Wayne Airport will be included,even though the Airport is located over five miles southeast of the Project site.A Noise section will be developed summarizing the findings of the analysis,and the support data and calculations will be provided as an appendix. Transportation Psomas will provide a Traffic Memorandum for the Bella Terra development;a Traffic Impact Analysis(TIA) is not anticipated to be required due to the size of the Project. The Project is expected to generate 11 net peak hour trips and 128 net daily trips. Based on City of Santa Ana guidelines,the Project will screen out of Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT)due to its location in a low- VMT area. Psomas will provide a Memorandum to document the screening and additional discuss, as necessary. The Memorandum will include the following: • A description of existing transportation facilities and traffic control in the immediate Project vicinity • A discussion of Project site access • Trip generation estimates for the Project • A discussion of VMT screening • Res ponsos to the four CEQA transportation questions A 24-hour count will be conducted on West Hazard Avenue along the frontage of the Project to assist with the air quality and noise analyses. No analysis or traffic design is assumed in this SOW. If the City determines that a TIA is required, a Side Letter Amendment will be required.This process would require re-submission to legal for review and signatures. 5ubtask2.2 Peer Review of Existing Technical Studies As indicated above,we assume a number of studies (i.e., Hydrology and Water Quality, Geotechnical, and Phase I ESA) may have been prepared by the Applicant's consultants for the Project. If these reports are available and provided to Psomas,we will conduct a review of each of the studies for CEQA adequacy and prepare a Memorandum summarizing the comments and recommendations, as necessary.
