City of Santa Ana <br />Environmental Checklist <br />Specific internal circulation descriptions, project - related traffic increase, and potential effects to <br />emergency response - related traffic conditions are discussed in Section XVI, "Traffic and Circulation." <br />As described, traffic generated from operation of the project would not result in significant traffic <br />impacts; as such, project - related traffic would not result in delays to emergency vehicles. <br />As described, the proposed project would not block emergency vehicle access to the site or adjacent <br />areas, and the project would not interfere with the adopted NHMP. In addition, and as mentioned in <br />the Project Description, the Academy is preparing an emergency preparedness handbook drafted <br />specifically to the needs of the school site in conjunction with the police and fire departments. This <br />handbook will include emergency evacuation plans for fire, flood, earthquake, terrorist threats, and <br />hostage situations. As a result, implementation of the proposed project would not impair or <br />physically interfere with an emergency response and impacts are considered to be less than <br />significant. <br />h. Expose people orstructures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving wildland fires, <br />including where wildlands are adjacent to urban !zed areas or where residences are intermixed <br />with wildlands? <br />No Impact. The proposed project site is located within an urban developed area and is not located <br />within an identified wildland fire hazard area, as identified by the Orange County Operations Centel- <br />and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Figure 20, Orange County Fire <br />Hazard Severity Zones; County of Orange n.d.). Implementation of the proposed project would also <br />require adherence to the following chapters of the City's Municipal Code to reduce potential fire <br />hazards: Chapter 8.2 Uniform Building Code, Chapter 8.4 Uniform Mechanical Code, Chapter 8.5 <br />National Electric Code, and Chapter 14 City of Santa Ana Fire Code. Additionally, the project would <br />be in compliance with any further guidelines from the City of Santa Ana Fire Department related to <br />fire prevention and is subject to approval by the City's Building Department. Therefore, the <br />proposed project would not expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death <br />from wildfires. <br />The Academy Charter High School 1 <br />202 <br />Initial Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration tCF 3 -53 tune ne 20 2 <br />�1 <br />M Wan <br />
