Box 1988 1 Santa Ana, CA 92702 APezeshkpour@santo-ana.org RE: Proposal For CEQA Analysis for the Garry Avenue Business Park Dear Mr. Pezeshkpour: July 26, 2021 Paoe 2 Thank you for contacting EPD Solutions, Inc. regarding environmental (CEQA) compliance services for the proposed new 93,900-square foot (SF) speculative industrial warehouse building on a 5.13-acre site located at 1700 E. Garry Avenue. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING The project site is currently occupied with three office park buildings, totaling 102,946 SF that will be demolished as part of the project. Approximately 33,791 SF of the total SF of the existing buildings is currently vacant. The proposed project involves the construction of a business park with a 93,500 SF warehouse building, parking, and loading docks. Access to the project site would be provided via one inbound only driveway along Garry Avenue close to the northern boundary of the site near Pullman Street and one outbound only driveway along Garry Avenue at the eastern boundary of the site. Construction is anticipated to commence in July 2021 and is expected to be completed in July 2022. The project requires approval of a general plan amendment (GPA) to designate the site as Industrial (IND) and zone change (ZC) to change the zoning district to Light Industrial (MI ). The applicant has decided to allow the City to proceed with changing the site's land use designation in the current City -led General Plan Update (GPU) to MI and then follow that effort with entitlements that include the aforementioned ZC and DPR permit process. If the City's GPU is delayed, the applicant will proceed with the GPA, ZC and DPR as part of the project. PROPOSED ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW As discussed, the following outlines the alternative approaches to CEQA compliance for the project based on the above assumption. We address the 2 entitlement process approaches mentioned above (1. Project includes GPA and ZC and 2. Project is consistent with GP and Zoning) and how they relate to the CEQA compliance effort. 1. Project includes GPA and ZC a) CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 Exemption b) CEQA Guidelines Section 15168 Exemption c) Supplement or Addendum to Revised General Plan EIR (2021) Proposal for CEQA Analysis Garry Avenue Business Park 2. Project is consistent with GP and Zoning a) Initial Study/Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration b) EIR July 26, 2021 Page 3 La) Categorical Exemption Due to the project site's size and proposed increase in square footage, the project would not qualify for a categorical exemption, including a Class 32 exemption which is limited to 5-acres or a Section 15302 Replacement or Reconstruction exemption which requires the replacement structure to be of substantially similar purpose and capacity as the structure replaced. Although the existing buildings total more square footage than the proposed building, the anticipated tenancy of the proposed building would be different than the existing buildings. Lle) CEQA Guidelines Section 15168 Streamlining Again, since the proposed project is assumed to be consistent with the site's General Plan and zoning designation in this scenario, the proposed project may be consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15168, Program EIR. A later activity in a program, such as a project that implements a General Plan, does not need additional CEQA analysis if its impacts would be within the scope of the impacts disclosed in a program EIR. Similar to the 15183 Streamlining process, EPD would prepare a modified initial study checklist to document the fact that the project's impacts are within the scope of the impacts identified in the General Plan EIR. If only minor clarifications are needed to make the General Plan EIR sufficient for the project, then the checklist needed to satisfy the requirements of the 15168 Streamlining process also can be an addendum to the General Plan EIR. l.c) CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 Streamlining Since the proposed project is assumed to be consistent with the site's General Plan and zoning designation in this scenario, the proposed project may be consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15183, projects consistent with a community plan. A project is eligible for 15183 Streamlining if it would create no peculiar environmental effects that are not addressed as significant effects in the General Plan EIR or cannot be substantially mitigated by the imposition of uniformly applied development policies or standards. EPD will prepare an Initial Study and will thoroughly review the project, the Revised General Plan EIR, the project's impacts to determine if the project can be streamlined under Section 15183. The Initial Study will guide the appropriate CEQA path. Based on the proposed uses and the City's overview of the studies completed to - dale, significant and unavoidable uses are not anticipated; therefore, the Initial Study could lead to either 15183 streamlining or a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND). l.d) Addendum to Revised General Plan EIR (2021) CEQA Guidelines Section 15164, Addendum to an EIR or Negative Declaration, states that the lead agency "shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR [or adopted Negative Declaration] if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR (SEIR) occurred." In turn, Section 15162 requires a SEIR if: (1) there are substantial changes proposed to the project which will require major revisions of the previous EIR; (2) there are substantial changes in circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or Proposal for CEQA Analysis Garry Avenue Business Park July 26, 2021 (3) new information of substantial importance; which was not known or could not have been known shows the project will do any of the following: (a) have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR; (b) significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR; (c) mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, but the project proponent declines to adopt the mitigation measure; or (d) mitigation measures which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would , substantially reduce the effects, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure. Preparation of an Initial Study will allow for a determination on whether any of the conditions listed in Section 15162 exist for the proposed project, which would require an SEIR. The fact that new information of substantial importance is available or that the project is now more specifically defined does not establish that an SEIR is required. It is only required if this new information or project modification would also result in significant environmental impacts. Another consideration for preparing an SEIR or other CEQA compliance document in lieu of an Addendum is if there is potential controversy related to the project, which would demand public review and comment about the environmental impacts of the project. 2.) Initial Study/Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration Under this scenario, the project would include a GPA and ZC along with the DPR. EPD would prepare an Initial Study based on the technical studies prepared by the applicant after reviewing the technical studies for CEQA adequacy and preparing additional studies that have not been completed by the applicant. The Initial Study would determine if an ND, MIND or EIR is required. EPD assumes an ND or MIND in this case based on the understanding that the technical studies prepared to -date and the remaining studies have not and will not identify any significant and unavoidable impacts. If any studies determine that a significant and unavoidable impact(s) will occur, an EIR will be prepared. However, this is not expected based on the results of the studies prepared by the applicant. Per your request, the following scope of work is based on scenarios l.c) and 2.) for scope definition and discussion purposes; however, we can amend the scope to accommodate another document type if further discussion yields a different approach is preferred, including those listed above or a combination of several approaches. Proposal for CEQA Analysis July 26, 2021 Garry Avenue Business Park Paae 5 SCOPE OF WORK 1. Project Initiation and Project Description EPD will participate in the kick-off meeting with City staff and if authorized, the applicant, to confirm: 1. the CEQA approach. to the project; 2. the scope of work; 3. the project schedule; and, 4, communication protocol and the administrative record. The meeting discussion would include any known project issues, and agency and community issues that need to be considered through the process. As part of this task, EPD will review the project's entitlement submittal package, the City's General Plan Update and associated EIR and mitigation measures, Municipal Code, and other relevant documents. EPD will then prepare a detailed project description for the project. EPD will also identify the relevant mitigation measures in the General Plan EIR that will be applicable to the project and any that may need to be refined to accommodate the project. As you know, one of the keys to successful CEQA compliance is a clear definition of the project and its components. Prior to initiating technical studies, the project description must be complete, comprehensive, and stable and finite in order to ensure the studies analyze potential impacts accurately and fully. EPD will identify any additional information needed to develop a thorough and complete project description. Based on the project plans supplied during the project kickoff meeting, the project description will provide the project's location, environmental setting, background and history, project characteristics, construction schedule/phasing, and discretionary actions. The project description will include figures to depict the regional and site vicinity and key project components to support the environmental analyses. EPD will also confer with the City and project team during this early process to discuss the potential environmental impacts of the proposed project. As part of this initial review, EPD will confer with the team to determine if any issues might come up related to the thresholds of significance. Upon initial review the greatest potential issue is traffic but with the proposed use being the lower trip generating use, it is likely no longer an issue to be concerned with. This and other issues will be analyzed further. Subsequent to this initial analysis, EPD will discuss with the team the results and identify any potential issues relative to the impact analysis and mitigation measures. 2. Technical Studies 2.1. Review of Applicant -Prepared Technical Studies We understand the following technical studies have been prepared by the applicant. The companies that prepared the reports are also listed where provided. These studies may need to be modified to address the General Plan EIR tiering approach if they were prepared with the assumption of a standalone CEQA document. 1. Hydrology and hydraulics — Kimley Horn 2. Hydrology WQMP — Kimley Horn 3. Biological survey — Rocks Biological Consulting 4. Air Quality — Kimley Horn Proposal for CEQA Analysts July 26, 2021 Garry Avenue Business Park Pace 6 5. Greenhouse Gas — Kimley Horn 6. Noise — Kimley Horn 7. Trip Generation & VMT — Kimley Horn 8. Phase 1 ESA 9. Geotechnical Report We assume the City will provide all of these technical reports at the time of project initiation. EPD will review the studies for adequacy for CEQA analysis, not a full peer review of the analysis. Therefore, the CEQA adequacy review will focus on: 1. the appropriateness of the methodology and analysis; 2. confirming the. conclusions are supported by factual and clearly disclosed evidence; 3. consistency among reports based on the approved project description and accurate representation of project -related information; and, 4. whether the analysis meets the applicable CEQA provisions and the State CEQA Guidelines. EPD will provide written comments on the technical studies, which EPD assumes the City will review and supply to the applicant along with any City department comments on the studies. EPD assumes that the applicant's consultant team will complete all necessary and requested revisions and forward a revised technical document with responses to the comments for each study. EPD will review the revised reports to ensure that all necessary and required comments have been addressed and resolved. One round of review is assumed. EPD Prepared Technical Studies The followingadditional studies are proposed in support of the CEQA document. 2.2: Cultural Records Search 2.3: Health Risk Assessment 2.4: Historical Resources Assessment 2.5: 2.2. Cultural Records Search The project site has been fully developed. Although unlikely, the potential for cultural resources discovered during earth moving construction activities could occur due to the timeframe when the existing improvements were constructed and the likelihood that cultural or tribal monitoring did not occur. EPD will perform a non - qualified consultant record search request to the South -Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) located on the California State University Fullerton campus. The record search would provide additional information regarding whether cultural resources have been discovered within a VA mile radius of the project site, providing cultural resource sensitivity in the project area. Due to circumstances related to COVID-1 9 policies, the SCCIC has restricted access and hours. This is resulting in delays in the receipt of information regarding previously recorded cultural resources. It is noted that the timeframe for receipt of this information is currently six to eight weeks. 2.3. Health Risk Assessment (optional) The project is not located near sensitive receptors. If the project generates less than 100 new daily heavy- duty truck trips (dependent on the ITE trip rates used in the traffic analysis), the potential health risk from project -related truck traffic will be addressed qualitatively, using the recommendations from the CAPCOA "Health Risk Assessments for Proposed Land Use Projects. If the project's truck trips exceed 100 per day, a Proposal for CEQA Analysis July 26, 2021 Garry Avenue Business Park Paae 7 quantitative (dispersion modeled) HRA will be required and would be based on truck data from the project. specific traffic analysis. Cancer risk due to air toxic exposures at the project will be estimated using methodology that conforms with SCAQMD requirements for mobile source emissions. Cancer risk will be estimated using the most recent OEHHA methodology that assess the cancer risk exposure to the following groups: 3rd trimester, infants, children, adults 16-30 years, and a cumulative 30.25-year exposure. This proposal assumes dispersion modeling will be necessary for purposes of budgeting. 2.4. Historical Resources Assessment (opffonal) As the existing buildings are over 45 years old, an assessment for historical resources is required under CEQA. An architectural historian will conduct property -specific research in order to accurately characterize construction and development history of the subject property. Historical research will include review of building permits, city directories, historical aerial photographs, Sanborn fire insurance maps, historical photographs, newspaper articles, and other primary and secondary source materials as necessary. Best industry practices dictate research into assessor's record. We will request a search from Environmental Data Resources (EDR) to obtain historical Sanborn fire insurance maps, historical aerial images, and city directories. We will conduct a field survey to examine and document the property. Digital photography will be used to document the features and characteristics of the buildings, as well as their general setting. The field survey will allow for the accurate depiction of each property's condition, historic integrity, alterations, and changes over time. Upon completion of the site visit and research, we will prepare a five to ten page Historical Evaluation Memorandum for the property pursuant to CEQA, which will include consideration of the potential individual eligibility of the subject property under federal and state criteria of significance. If the property is found individually eligible under federal or state criteria, the Memorandum will include a list of character -defining features. In compliance with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) guidelines for cultural resources surveys, evaluationfindings will be documented on California Department of Parks & Recreation (DPR) series 523 forms, which will be included as an appendix. We assume permit history will be readily available. We assume that research regarding property development history and alterations will be readily attainable and discernible, requiring no more than four hours of labor. More extensive research may require a budget supplement. 2.5. Assembly Bill 52/Senate Bill 18 Consultation (optional) AB 52 consultation would be required if the project requires a standalone CEQA compliance document —in this case an IS/MND—and SB 18 is required for General Plan Amendments (and other nonapplicable entitlements). Therefore, if the project applicant decides to proceed with processing the project before the City completes the General Plan Update and EIR, AB 52 and SB 18 consultations would be required. EPD will assist the Cityin completing the Native American consultation process under AB 52 and SB 18. The City, as the Lead Agency, is responsible for initiating the AB 52 and SB18 consultation processes; however, EPD will assist by contacting the Native American Heritage Commission and local tribes, requesting the Sacred Land File search on behalf of the City, and preparing the AB 52 and SB 18 notification letters for the City's review and approval. EPD will prepare and distribute all mailings and will attend any Native American consultations, if requested by the City. EPD will provide mitigation measures, agreed upon as necessary by the City to reduce potential impacts to a less than significant level. Proposal for CEQA Analysis July 26, 2021 Gamy Avenue Business Park Page 8 3. Environmental Documentation - Initial Study/Section 15183 Streamlining 3.1. Administrative Draft Initial Study As discussed above, EPD assumes the project will be proceeding after the City completes the public drafts of the GPU and EIR. Therefore, the CEQA compliance approach will be to tier off of that EIR in which it will qualify for CEQA review under Section 15183 of the California Code of Regulations, which stipulates that if a project is consistent with the land use and zoning of an adopted General Plan, CEQA "shall not require additional environmental review, except as might be necessary to examine whether there are project - specific significant effects which are peculiar to the project or its site." Completing the analysis pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 would focus the effort on a narrow range of potentially significant impacts, including those which: • Are peculiar to the project or the parcel on which the project would be located; • Were not analyzed as significant effects in a prior EIR on the Zoning Action, General Plan or community plan with which the project is consistent; • Are potentially significant off -site impacts and cumulative impacts which were not discussed in the prior EIR prepared for the general plan, community plan or zoning action; • Are previously identified significant effects which, as a result of substantial new information which was not known at the time the EIR was certified, are determined to have a more severe adverse impact than discussed in the prior EIR. To evaluate the project pursuant to the above, EPD will prepare an IS for the project addressing each of the environmental topics and through this effort evaluate the applicability of Section 15183 to the project. An administrative draft of the IS will be provided to the City for review. City comments will be incorporated into an updated document. One round of review is expected. 3.2. Public Draft IS/Section 15183 Streamlining and MMRP Section 15183 does not require a public circulation of the tiering document, but in preparation for the hearing body's staff report packages, EPD will prepare the final public draft IS/Section 15183 Streamlining document, including revisions that may be necessary after the Planning Commission meeting, including responses to comments submitted on the CEQA document. Because the scope of changes is not known at this time and until the hearing occurs, the fee associated with this task is a budget amount. As part of this task, EPD will also prepare an MMRP for the project incorporating the General Plan EIR mitigation measures and any project -specific measures. The MMRP will use the City's typical format for such documents. EPD will review the MMRP with the to ensure the steps to compliance with each mitigation measure are appropriate and feasible. 4. Environmental Documentation - Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration This scope of work assumes that after preparing the Task 3 efforts, the applicant will instead move forward with the GPA, ZC and DPR due to delays on the City's GPU and EIR. Therefore, the IS prepared under Task 3 would require revisions to remove references to tiering off of the GPU EIR and instead be drafted as a standalone project CEQA document and in support of an MND. EPD expects and assumes that previously prepared technical studies, prior to any revisions made to account for the Task 3 approach will be adequate for use in the IS. Proposal for CEQA Analysis July 26, 2021 Garry Avenue Business Park Page EPD will work with the City, and the applicant, and their design team, as authorized by the City, to mitigate all impacts to below a level of significance; however, if an impact cannot be mitigated adequately, it could be deemed significant and unavoidable by the City, which would trigger the need for an EIR. We will advise the project team immediately if we find any impacts could reach this severity. 4.1. Administrative Draft IS/MND EPD will review the prepare an IS consistent with the State CEQA Guidelines and the City's local CEQA guidelines. We anticipate the Initial Study will be used to support the use of a or an MND. An administrative draft of the IS/MND will be provided to the project team for review. One round of review is assumed. 4.2. Public Draft IS/MND EPD will incorporate City comments and prepare a Public Draft IS/MND for public release and distribution. As part of this task, EPD will also prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the project. The MMRP will use the City's typical format for such documents. EPD will review the MMRP with the project team to ensure the steps to compliance with each mitigation measure are appropriate and feasible. At the conclusion of this task, EPD will coordinate public release of the IS/MND, NO] for a 20- or 30-day review period. 4.3. Responses to Comments During the public review period and immediately thereafter, EPD will prepare responses to public comments and communicate with the City and project team to discuss any comments that raise significant issues or require additional analysis beyond what has been completed under Task 3 and assumed in this proposal. EPD will Inform the project team immediately if an addendum to this proposal is needed as a result of the public comments. If a submittal to the State Clearinghouse occurs, a Notice of Completion (NOC) will be prepared and submitted alongside the IS/MND. 20 hours have been assumed in the budget for this task. 4.4. Final IS/MND and NOD EPD will compile the Final IS/MND document addressing any changes associated with the responses to comments for the Planning Commission hearing and then subsequently for the City Council hearing. Upon City approval of the environmental document, EPD will coordinate filing of the Notice of Determination (NOD). Because the scope of changes is not known at this time and until the hearing occurs, the fee associated with this task is a budget amount. 6. Meetings & Hearings EPD will attend team meetings (either in person or via conference call) and hearings before the Planning Commission and City Council. For budgeting purposes, four one -hour conference calls, one Planning Commission and one City Council hearing are assumed. 6. CEOA Project Management EPD's CEQA project manager will coordinate closely with the project team and City staff to assure that the CEQA document delivered to the City is legally defensible, accurate, and useful to decision makers considering the approval of the project. The project manager will also coordinate with City staff throughout the process not only to streamline the CEQA process, but to avoid or anticipate any changes that could result in delays. The project manager will be the key contact for the project team and City and will be responsible for managing (1) IS/MND task scheduling and assignment, management of resources, monitoring of costs, and schedule adherence; (2) consultation and coordination with local and state agencies relative to the environmental document and the environmental review process; (3) coordination and communications with the project team and City to ensure that City policies, procedures, and any applicable codes are complied with and, where applicable, are incorporated into the environmental document; and (4) ensuring that the Proposal for CEQA Analysis Garry Avenue Business Park July 26, 2021 Page 10 environmental review process and the environmental document satisfy the statutes and guidelines of CEQA and CEQA procedures. This scope of work assumes ongoing project management at an estimated 25 hours of management time. FEES & EXPENSES EPD proposes the following labor fees and expenses.
