ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT ADDENDUM Bristol Street Widening Phase IIIB — Washington Avenue to 17fh Street 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 FIR (refer to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164(e)). 1.2 Project Location The proposed Project includes a segment of Bristol Street between Washington Avenue and 17d' Street in the City of Santa Ana.
