ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORTADDENDUM Bristol Street Widening Phase IIIB— Washington Avenue to 17� Street In addition, no substantial changes in circumstances under Section 15162(a)(2) have occurred since the certification of the 1990 FEIS/EIR for the approved Project that would result in new significant impacts or substantially increase the severity of significant impacts previously identified, since the background environmental conditions have not significantly changed since that time. The City of Santa Ana has received no information indicating there has been a substantial change in any circumstances that would result in a new or substantially greater significant impact. Furthermore, no new information, which was not known and could not have been known at the time of the 1990 FEIS /EIR preparation, has been revealed that shows new or substantially greater significant impacts would result (see CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a)(3)). In addition, there are no new or different mitigation measures or alternatives that would substantially reduce one or more significant impacts of the approved Project but that are not adopted. The proposed modifications do not identify or require adoption of any further mitigation measures or alternatives beyond those provided in the certified 1990 FEIS /EIR for the approved Project, since additional mitigation measures are either not necessary or not feasible, and the alternatives analyzed in the 1990 FEIS /EIR represent a reasonable range as required pursuant to CEQA (see CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a)(3)). This Addendum relies on the certified 1990 FEIS/EIR and the related administrative record, in addition to the additional documentation included to support the Addendum, including the appendices. The Addendum is to be included or attached to the 1990 FEIS /EIR and is not to be considered as an independent or separate document. As this Addendum does not identify new or substantially greater significant impacts, circulation for public review and comment is not necessary pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164(c). However, the City Council will consider and adopt or reject this Addendum at a public meeting (refer to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164(d)). The findings of the City Council in its resolution of adoption of this Addendum, if adopted, will reflect this Addendum which provides the basis and substantial evidence for the decision not to prepare a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR (refer to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164(e)). 1.2 Project Location The proposed Project includes a segment of Bristol Street between Washington Avenue and 17" Street in the City of Santa Ana.
