Grand Avenue Widening Project Environmental Impact Report Section 7.0 SECTION 7.0 MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM 7.1 PURPOSE On January 1, 1989, California State Assembly Bill 3180 (AB 3180) became effective. AB 3180 requires state and local agencies to adopt programs for monitoring and reporting of implementation of mitigation measures addressing significant adverse environmental impacts of projects agencies approve subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Consistent with the requirements of AB 3180 and the CEQA Guidelines, this Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) was developed by the City of Santa Ana for use in monitoring the implementation of the proposed Grand Avenue widening project. The City of Santa Ana has the authority to require and enforce the provisions of AB 3180 and the CEQA Guidelines consistent with its existing police powers. As lead agency for the environmental documentation for the proposed Grand Avenue widening, the City is also responsible for approving the MMP and for accepting the written report documenting completion of the implementation of the project mitigation measures. In general, the City of Santa Ana Public Works Agency (PWA) and Planning Department would be responsible for overseeing the implementation of these mitigation measures and for approving measures as complete. 7.2 DEVELOPMENT OF THE MMP The basis of the MMP is the mitigation measures identified as follows: ■ By environmental impact category in the Initial Study Environmental Checklist, as documented in Section 2.0 (Impacts Found Not to Be Significant Based on the Initial Study). ■ By environmental impact category as documented in Section 3.0 (Existing Conditions, Impacts and Mitigation Measures) of this Environmental Impact Report (EIR). After the circulation of the Draft EIR, these measures may be modified and/or new measures added, based on comments received during the public review period. The mitigation measures in the Final MMP will include all the mitigation measures in this Draft EIR as modified based on the responses to comments received on the Draft EIR, if any. 7.3 MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM FOR THE PROPOSED GRAND AVENUE WIDENING Table 7-1 provides the following information: A list of all mitigation measures from Section 3.0 of this EIR. Unless otherwise noted in the language of the measure, each of these measures applies to both Alternatives 1 and 2 for the proposed Grand Avenue widening.
