the project using published data from the US Environmental Protection Agency and Federal Transit Administration. The noise analyses will evaluate the potential for project-related traffic and stationary sources to substantially elevate the ambient noise environment. Other Environmental Issues The remaining impact areas, including geology and soils, hydrology, land use, public services and utilities, etc., will be addressed in their respective sections in the Initial Study. Most issues will be addressed based on plans from the project architects and readily available information contained in the City of Santa Ana's General Plan and General Plan EIR and similar sources. PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION AND NOI FILING Our cost estimate assumes one iteration of revisions, no substantive changes to the project description, and no additional modeling/analysis required. Once the Initial Study is approved by the City for reproduction, a Notice of Intent (NOI) to adopt the MND will be prepared using the City's standard form, if available. After City approval of the Initial Study/MND and NOI, The Planning Center will copy and distribute the NO[ for the required 30-day public review to the public, responsible agencies, and other special interest groups or individuals identified by the City.'fhePlanning Center will also prepare a newspaper notice for the City to publish in a newspaper of general circulation in the area affected by the proposed project. FINAL MND/RESPONSES TO COMMENTS Although not required by CEQA, it is The Planning Center's standard practice and recommendation to respond to all environmental comments on the MND. Responses will focus on comments that address the adequacy of the MND. Comments that do not address MND adequacy will be noted as such and no further response will be provided, unless deemed necessary by the City. If an unexpectedly large volume of comments is received or if certain comments result in the need for substantial response or new research or analysis, the Initial budget may not be sufficient. MITIGATION AND MONITORING PROGRAM A Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) will be prepared (if necessary) pursuant to Section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code. NOTICE OF DETERMINATION The NOD will be prepared by The Planning Center. It is assumed that the City will file the NOD with the County Clerk and State Clearinghouse. This proposal does not include the County of Orange filing fee or the Fish and Game fee.
