AECOM <br />Work Plan <br />Background + Project Understanding <br />City of Santa Ana Climate Action Plan EIR <br />EXHIBIT A -1 <br />The City of Santa Ana has taken significant steps to reduce <br />greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy costs, and is <br />seeking to expand on those initiatives through the <br />development of a GHG Inventory and Climate Action Plan <br />(CAP). ICLEI -USA, AECOM, Global Green, and Fehr & Peers are <br />preparing the CAP for the City, with an anticipated <br />completion date in October 2012. The CAP will include a GHG <br />emissions inventory and forecast for both municipal <br />operations and the community, establish GHG emissions <br />targets for the City, and incorporate an implementation and <br />monitoring strategy to ensure the City meets its goals. <br />The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines <br />Section 15183.5 allows jurisdictions to analyze and mitigate <br />the significant effects of GHGs at a programmatic level, by <br />adopting a "plan for the reduction of GHG emissions ". Later, <br />as individual projects are proposed, project- specific <br />environmental documents may tier from and /or incorporate <br />by reference that existing programmatic review in their <br />cumulative impacts analysis. The City would like to use the <br />CAP as a plan for the reduction of GHG emissions within the <br />meaning established by the CEQA Guidelines. <br />Among other provisions established within this portion of the <br />State CEQA Guidelines, Section 15183.5(b)(1)(f) identifies that <br />plans for the reduction of GHG emissions should be adopted <br />in a public process following environmental review. A variety <br />of options are available to satisfy the CEQA Guidelines' <br />recommendation to complete environmental review. The City <br />has identified the need to prepare a focused Environmental <br />Impact Report (EIR) to accompany the CAP as the preferred <br />method of meeting this objective. <br />Completing an EIR for the CAP may also affect the structure <br />and content of the CAP itself. For example, mitigation <br />measures that would otherwise be introduced in the EIR to <br />reduce or avoid a significant environmental effect could <br />instead be incorporated in the CAP. This would result in the <br />need for an additional round of adjustments to the CAP <br />between the preliminary draft CAP used to complete the <br />project description for the EIR and the public review draft <br />CAP released with the Draft EIR. ICLEI -USA will work with <br />AECOM to accommodate this additional round of changes to <br />the CAP and to coordinate the public review process for both <br />documents. <br />Scope of Work <br />The following work plan describes the work proposed by task. <br />AECOM anticipates preparation of a Focused EIR that <br />examines only those technical areas that could be potentially <br />significant as a result of implementing the CAP. <br />Work Plan + Approach <br />The services AECOM proposes to provide include: <br />preparation of an EIR; <br />
