ICF International for environmental services in an amount not to exceed $204,122 for a proposed
residential development located at 200 East First American Way, subject to non-substantive

DISCUSSION
In April 2011, the Planning Division received a submittal by Ryan Ogulnick, Vineyards
Development Corporation, to develop the approximately 3.1 acre undeveloped parcel of land
located at 200 East First American Way, referred to as The Met at South Coast. The proposed
project is a request to construct 319 multiple family residential units with two levels of subterranean
parking and one level of above grade parking. After reviewing the project description, it was
determined that an environmental impact report (EIR) will be necessary to meet the requirements
of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
A Request for Proposal (RFP) for consultant services was authorized by the City Council on
February 22, 2011. The RFP was prepared and sent to five different environmental firms.
Proposals were received from two environmental firms. After reviewing the proposals, the firm ICF
International was found to be qualified, and was selected based on the firm's experienced staff,
knowledge of the study area, and ability to complete the work in a timely manner. At this time, staff
recommends that ICF International be awarded the contract to prepare the Environmental Impact
Report for the project. The consultant has identified a cost of $204,122 for the EIR and associated
technical studies to be prepared (Exhibit 1). Funding for the work on the EIR would be provided
entirely by applicant.

Within our extensive development project portfolio, we have managed numerous projects involving residential
components. We have selected a few of these local projects to highlight.
Projects Within the Past Five Years
As-Needed Extension of Staff and Environmental Documentation Services-City of Santa Ana
Our local environmental planners, including Chad Beckstrom, are providing on-call CEQA compliance and training
services. Under this contract, we also prepared several small CEQA documents, including an iS/MND to remodel the
California Palms Motel into a residential hotel, which included analysis of air quality, cultural resources, hazardous
materials, water quality, noise, and traffic impacts; preparation of an IS/MND for the construction of 38 residential units at
Alton Court, which Involved demolishing an existing on-site warehouse, Improving public roadway, landscaping and
open space, and developing common recreational areas; and preparation of an IS/ND for the Santa Ana State Enterprise
Zone application. Larger CEQA needs ICF met includes preparing an EIR for the Proposed West End Lofts (project
cancelled) and a six-story Infill development In the City's Downtown National Register District.

We also worked closely with the City's Planning Division to deliver two CEQA training sessions, following the departure of
their Environmental Coordinator. The training, led by Chad, focused on educating the staff on how to conduct
environmental reviews under CEQA. Chad even worked at least one day a week at City Hall to provide follow-up hands-
on training and CEQA advisory services as an extension of staff for a six-month period. Chad worked with City planners
and staff in other City Departments during his time on-site at City Hall to review environmental documents prepared by
City planning staff, provide advice related to CEQA/NEPA, and answer general questions regarding the environmental
review process relative to the City entitlement process. He continues to offer general advice over the phone and
occasional document review on an as-needed basis.

Multiple Development Projects-City of Newport Beach
ICF prepared CEQA documentation for multiple development projects in the City of Newport Beach, including the
following:
A Newport Business Plaza Administrative Draft IS/MND. ICF prepared an IS checklist and MND for a general plan
amendment and planned community text for a development project requiring a General Plan Amendment to
Increase the maximum allowable entitlement. The project proposed demolishing the existing one-story office
building comprised of two connected buildings, and construction of three separate office buildings, two 3-story
buildings and one 1-story building, and multi-level parking. The project also required an amendment to the Koll
Center Planned Community Text to allow an Increase In the maximum net square footage. The proposed project was
located within one mile of John Wayne Airport and subject to its respective AELUP.
e PRIES Office Building B Administrative Draft IS/MND. ICF prepared an IS checklist and MND for a general plan
amendment and planned community text amendment for a development project in the Koll Center. The project
required a General Plan Amendment to Increase the maximum allowable entitlement. The project proposed a three
story building to replace existing paved surface parking located between two office buildings. The project also
included an amendment to the Koll Center Planned Community text to allow an Increase to the maximum net square
footage. The proposed project was located adjacent to a retarding basin and located in the San Diego Creek
Watershed. TMDLs for nutrients, sediments and toxics were discussed as the main tributary of the San Diego Creek
Watershed, San Diego Creek, drains directly Into the Upper Newport Bay. The project was also located within one
mile of John Wayne Airport and subject to its AELUP.
¦ Beauchamp General Plan and Coastal Land Use Plan Amendments IS/MND. ICF prepared an IS checklist and MND for
a general plan amendment and local coastal program amendment for a development project on the Balboa
Peninsula. The project included the demolition of two existing tennis courts and clubhouse and the construction of
five residential dwelling units. The proposed project changed the General Plan land use, so that the land use
designations would be consistent with Single Family Residential Zoning district. The proposed project was located in
a low-lying flat area of Newport Beach which is affected by ocean tides and susceptible to flooding. The proposed
project was located in an area of 100-year flooding and tsunami Inundation at extreme high tide.

Brea Mail Expansion EIR-City of Brea
With Chad Beckstrom as the Project Manager, ICF prepared a draft EIR to support the expansion of the Brea Mall, as
proposed by private developer and applicant, Simon Property Group. The existing mail structure was to be expanded
with approximately 200,000 square feet for retail and restaurant uses In nine new 1- and 2-story buildings. A 6-level
above grade parking structure would also be constructed adjacent to the existing southerly entry. The parking structure
and reconfigured surface parking lot would provide a net Increase of 1,622 new spaces to serve the new expanded mail.
Key environmental issues included aesthetics and visual resources, air quality, land use and planning, noise, and
transportation/traffic. Chad worked closely with the City of Brea, who was the CEQA lead agency. David Crabtree from the
City of Brea commented that "Chad has an excellent grasp of CEQA, but Is able to build meaningful relationships with
City staff that ultimately streamline team communications."

Additional Development Project Experience
East Orange Projects (Santiago Hills II Planned Community) EIR and Supporting Studies-City of Orange
iCF prepared a controversial EIR for the East Orange General Plan (EOGP) and the Santiago Hills II development. The
document addressed several major components, Including; (1) amendments to the City or Orange's General Plan to the
goals and policies of the EOGP, (2) modifications to the Santiago Hills II Planned Community, (3) tentative subdivision
maps for the Santiago Hills 11 Planned Community, (4) amendments to the County Master Plan of Arterial Highways
(MPAH), as well as others. While the EIR addressed the environmental impacts of these goals, the project's main challenge
involved major areas of controversy voiced by the public, including: aesthetics, air quality, biological resources, geology,
hydrology (with respect to the impact and development of stormwater on Handy Creek and Peters Canyon Reservoir),
and noise.
The City of Orange's Deputy Planning Director, Edward Knight observed, "The project was a highly visible and
controversial proposal, which, as anticipated throughout the environmental process, was challenged in court after the
EIR was certified. However, the thorough and professional work done by ICF allowed the City to prevail in court and
survive litigation."
Rosedale Ranch Program EIR Mixed-Use Development-City of Bakersfield
ICF prepared a Program EIR for a new master planned community consisting of residential, commercial, Village Center,
and park components over a 1,655-acre site. The residential components would be organized into three villages. The
Village Center provides for retail, office, entertainment, employment, institutional, and service uses, and would also
comprise approximately 900 units of higher density multi-family residential and live-work opportunities. Additional
pieces of the master planned community includes a 245-acre regional business complex for commercial retail,
commercial office; and light industrial, assembly, warehouse, office, and manufacturing uses. The master-planned
community would also include recreational elements such as a 17-acre lake with a lake and beach club, a community
sports park, a great park, village greens, and various neighborhood parks and trails.

of Bakersfield. Major environmental issues include agricultural land conversion, air quality, biological resources, cultural
resources, hydrology and water quality, land use and planning, noise, public services and utilities, transportation and
traffic, and cumulative impacts from ongoing growth in the region.
Rain Bird Residential Development-City of Glendora
Another mixed-use residential experience was the EIR we prepared for the Rain Bird Residential Development proposed
by William Lyons Homes in the City of Glendora. The project site was occupied by the Rain Bird Corporation
Headquarters, and was used for Rain Bird's corporate offices, as well as the company's product research and testing
facilities. The proposed project involved a Specific Plan for the subdivision and development of 27.6 acres for 53 single-
family detached residential units, 87 triplex-style condominium units, a 1 A-acre passive park, and a 4.7-acre linear open
space buffer area adjacent to a railroad right of way. The major environmental issues Involved In the project included
land use and planning, noise, traffic, air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, public services and utilities,
aesthetics, geology and soils, hazardous materials, population and housing, recreation, and cumulative Impacts.
Traffic Subconsultant Project Experience (LLG)
MacArthur Place-City of Santa Ana
LLG provided an opportunities and constraints analysis, traffic master planning, and internal circulation design for a four
million square-feet urban village in a City redevelopment area. They prepared a Traffic Impact Study to address near- and
long-term traffic conditions that resulted in a comprehensive cumulative traffic mitigation program by project phase. LLG
also prepared signing, striping, traffic signal and traffic control plans for phased implementation, as well as provided
consultation and design support in conjunction with the development of specific parcels.
Hutton Centre-City of Santa
LLG provided traffic planning and internal circulation design, an EIR Traffic Study, and traffic signal and street
channelization plans for a two million square-feet mixed-use office development. Subsequent traffic studies focused on
the impacts of specific development components.

PROJECT APPOACH AND CEQA WORK PLAN
Understanding of the City and the Anticipated Project
ICF understands the environmental issues relative to infill urban development in built-out cities such as Santa Ana. The
anticipated residential development located at 200 East First American Way Is located in one of the City's "District
Centers" known as MacArthur Place, 128 acres In the southeast portion of Santa Ana, near the juncture of the SR-55 and 1-
405. This area is also near employment centers around the John Wayne Airport, Irvine Business Complex, and South Coast
Metro.
The MacArthur Place District Center contains an existing office/hotel complex and a proposed major mixed-use project
which includes professional offices, supporting commercial, and mid and high-rise residential components. The
MacArthur Place District Center is designed as an intense, urban, and mixed-use center that supports the local
employment base. Within the MacArthur Place District Center, three key projects are proposed: Skyline consisting of two
high-rise residential towers; Montage at MacArthur Place, a condominium development at the southeast corner of Main
Street and MacArthur Boulevard; and Promenade Point, with multiple residential towers. Since January 2006, over one
thousand residential units have been built or approved within the MacArthur Place District Center.
The District Center (DC) General Plan land use designation is generally reserved for major activity areas or nodes within
the City designed with an urban character defined by eclectic skylines that include a mixture of high-rise office,
commercial, and residential land uses. The General Plan goals and policies support the creation of high intensity, mixed-
use experiences that support the mid- to high-rise residential development in the varied District Centers (Policy HE-2.2,
Policy 1.2). In accordance with the City's General Plan, Santa Ana Is developing new residential neighborhoods In District
Centers close to employment centers to protect and stabilize existing residential neighborhoods, support the City's
economic base, and provide housing for the local workforce.
The project site is located In a developed and built-up portion of the City, and as a result, natural resource issues are
limited. However, the key environmental Impacts associated with the proposed project are likely to be focused on urban
development issues such as noise, traffic, air quality and greenhouse gasses, land use, and public service and utility
capacities. Based on a review of the City's General Plan, the site lies just outside of the John Wayne Airport 60 dBA impact
zone, but is subject to height restrictions due to being within the AELUP Notification Area, and within the Obstruction
Imaginary Surfaces zone (Horizontal Surface 206'). We also recognize that the existing transportation and roadway
network in this area is constrained, and future intensification of development will require corresponding Improvements
to the circulation system If current levels of service are to be maintained. The City's General Plan acknowledges that the
addition or expansion of transportation facilities will have a corresponding impact on adjacent development over time,

and the historical approach to solving congestion problems (increasing roadway capacity by widening streets, or
building new roads) is the least likely option to be considered by the City.
In terms of land use compatibility, the project would generally be consistent with the District Center concepts, goals, and
policies, Including land use and energy goals related to reducing land use-related energy consumption. These goals and
policies encourage higher density mixed-use housing and office development to relate to areas of higher transportation
access and capacity. In recent decades, Santa Ana has experienced slower growth in housing, due in part to the lack of
vacant land and built out fabric. At the same time, the City's population increased by about 60,000, due In part to
increased Immigration and demographic trends reflective of southern California. The General Plan anticipates additional
infill housing through 2015 particularly In the City's District Centers.
ICF will bring our past experience working with the City of Santa Ana as well as other local government agencies In
preparing environmental documents for similar types of infill projects to bear on the proposed project.
Scope of Work for the Environmental Impact Report (EIR)
ICF will prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) in accordance with State CEQA Guidelines, as well as all up-to-date
CEQA-related legislation and case law. The environmental analysis will focus on the project, as delineated In the project
description, preliminary engineering designs, and other information provided by the City and/or Project Applicant. ICF
understands that our scope of work for environmental review and technical services needed for the 200 East First
American Way project will involve the tasks outlined below.
Task 1. Project Initiation/Develop Project Description and Objectives
Chad Beckstrom and Renee Escario, as the project management team, will meet with the City's project team within five
days of the Notice to Proceed (NTP) to discuss the project issues, refine our scope if necessary, and gather project specific
data and materials (including design details, construction assumptions, and construction schedule) to begin the
environmental analyses.
Following this meeting, ICF will review this information to gain a firm understanding of the project and the Issues. Our
project management and necessary technical staff will conduct field visits to review the site and the overall context of the
surrounding area. Renee will prepare an information needs request to identify any additional project specific information
that will be needed for preparation of the EIR. Renee and Chad will also work with the City to develop the project
objectives and a detailed project description.
At the completion of this task, Renee will provide the City with a Draft Project Description and project objectives for
review.

0 Print and mail up to 30 hard copies of the IS/NOP, plus 15 copies to the State Clearinghouse, Office of
Planning and Research.
¦ Post IS/NOI at the County Clerk.
¦ Provide PDF version suitable for the City to post on their website.
Task 3. Public Scoping Meeting
ICF will work with the City to facilitate a scoping meeting to solicit public input on the scope of the EIR. We will
work with City staff to determine the most appropriate format for the scoping meeting (e.g., open house or
community presentation) and prepare all materials necessary for the scoping meeting (PowerPoint Presentation,
comment cards, sign-in sheets, handouts, poster boards). ICF's project manager and applicable technical staff will
be available to present the project information, as well as information regarding the environmental process and
preliminary findings on the IS. We will facilitate public comments from the audience and provide meeting minutes
to the City following the scoping meeting.
Task 4. Prepare Technical Studies
Due to the nature and location of the proposed project it is anticipated that the following technical studies will be
required:
• Traffic Impact Analysis
d Air Quality Impact and Greenhouse Gas Analysis
¦ Noise Impact Study
® Cultural Resources Study
It is anticipated that the applicant would provide a preliminary level of site specific technical analysis including:
preliminary site plan, grading plans, a preliminary geotechnical study, and a water quality management plan.
Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) Provided by LLG
The following tasks are included in preparation of a project specific TIA, which will be summarized in the EIR and
included as an Appendix.
TIA Task 1: Project Mobilization
¦ LLG will confirm the project description, work schedule, and assumptions to be utilized in the TIA. This will
include the assumptions to be used for the project completion year and anticipated phasing, if any. LLG
would need to obtain a current project site plan that illustrates the access scheme to the project site in both
hard copy and digital formats.
¦ LLG will work with City staff to discuss the project and analysis criteria, confirm the study approach, identify
pertinent traffic issues and concerns, and formalize the Scope of Work for the TIA, which will be submitted to
the City for review and approval.

TIA Task 2: Data Collection and Research
¦ Visit the project study area to confirm existing conditions with respect to existing site development, local area
development, site access, parking use, and areas of congestion in order to verify our overall understanding of
traffic conditions in the area that might affect this project.
o Document the existing roadway striping, traffic control measures, curbside parking restrictions, adjacent
intersection configurations, and other pertinent roadway features.
¦ Obtain existing street improvement plans/striping plans for key roadways in the immediate vicinity of the
project site. Compile information with regards to planned street improvements in the project study area.
¦ Conduct AM peak period and PM peak period traffic volume counts at up to fifteen (15) study intersections.
The traffic counts will be conducted between the hours of 7:00 AM and 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM and 6:00 PM.
These traffic volume data will be utilized in the traffic impact analysis for the project. The number and location
of the study intersections will be verified with City staff prior to commencement of the analysis. Should traffic
and analysis of additional intersections be required (i.e., more than 15 intersections), an amendment to the TIA
scope and budget will be necessary.
¦ Conduct 24-hour machine traffic counts at up to fifteen (15) roadway segments to support the Greenhouse
Gas, Air Quality and Noise analyses.
e Research data at the City of Santa Ana, adjacent jurisdictions and recent traffic impact studies prepared for
developments in the project vicinity regarding the status of other proposed developments (related projects) in
the area that may contribute cumulative impacts to the adjacent street system and study locations in the
vicinity of the proposed project. The compiled list of related projects will be forwarded for review and
approval by City staff.
rt Obtain development information for the remaining vacant portion of the 3-acre parcel to include as a related
project in the cumulative traffic setting.
TIA Task 3: Trip Generation, Distribution, and Assignment
¦ Prepare trip generation forecasts for the proposed project for a typical weekday over a 24-hour period, as well
as for the commuter AM and PM peak hours. The trip generation forecasts will be derived from trip rates
listed in Trip Generation, 8 h Edition, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) in 2008.
Appropriate trip generation credits will also be applied for the existing land uses on site, mixed-use
development, and transit, if applicable.
¦ Assign the forecasted AM and PM peak hour trips expected to be generated by the proposed project to the
study intersections based on existing and anticipated traffic patterns to and from the project site, and input
from City staff. The assumed distribution pattern will be submitted for review and approval by City staff prior
to finalization.
¦ Prepare trip generation forecasts for the related projects for a typical weekday over a 24-hour period, as well
as for the commuter AM and PM peak hours utilizing the ITE Trip Generation publication. The AM and PM
peak hour trips expected to be generated by the related projects will be distributed and assigned to the local
street system.
TIA Task 4: Formulation of Existing Plus Project, Near-Term, and long-term Traffic Volumes
¦ Develop daily, AM peak hour and PM peak hour "existing plus project" traffic volume projections for 15
intersections and 15 roadway segments.
¦ Develop daily, AM peak hour and PM peak hour "near-term" traffic volume projections based on the
application of an annual growth factor to the existing traffic volumes plus the addition of related project
traffic plus the addition of Project traffic for 15 intersections and 15 roadway segments.

Environmental Consulting Services (200 East First American Way) City of Santa Ana
¦ Contact OCTA and formally request preparation of OCTAM 3.3 approved computer traffic model runs for the
model baseline conditions, and Year 2035 buildout conditions for the AM and PM peak periods and daily
traffic conditions.
¦ Forecast future Year 203.5 traffic volumes using the following methodology:
(a) Peak period traffic volumes will be converted to peak hour (i.e., one-hour) traffic volumes using a
conversion factor of 0.38 for the AM peak hour and 0.28 for the PM peak hour;
(b) Calculate the difference between the model baseline and the Year 2035 buildout peak period traffic
volumes and convert to AM and PM peak hour (i.e., one-hour) link traffic volumes;
(c) Link traffic volumes (i.e., two-way directional traffic volumes on each roadway segment) will be post-
processed using the "b-turns" program and the relationship of the base year validation model run
output to the base year "ground" traffic counts to develop 2035 AM and PM peak hour traffic
volumes.
TIA Task 5: Project Evaluation and Mitigation Analysis
¦ Prepare AM peak hour and PM peak hour Level of Service (LOS) calculations at up to fifteen (15) study
intersections to determine the potential impacts of the proposed project. The following traffic scenarios will
be prepared.
(a) Existing Traffic Conditions;
(b) Existing Plus Project Traffic Conditions;
(c) Scenario (b) with Mitigation, if necessary;
(d) Near-Term Background Traffic Conditions (Existing plus Ambient Growth plus Related Projects);
(e) Near-Term Background Plus Project Traffic Conditions;
(f) Scenario (e) with Mitigation, if necessary;
(g) Long-Term (2035) Traffic Conditions;
(h) Long-Term (2035) Traffic Conditions Plus Project; and
(i) Scenario (h) with Mitigation, if necessary.
¦ The LOS calculations will be based on City-approved capacity analysis methodologies (i.e., Intersection
Capacity Utilization method, Highway Capacity Manual method, etc.). The future background traffic volumes
will be forecast by applying a growth factor (typically estimated at 1.0 to 2.0% per year) to the existing traffic
volumes and adding traffic from cumulative developments (related projects) in the study area, while long-
term projections will be forecast based on OCTAM 3.3 traffic forecasts. Prior to initiation of the analysis, we
will confirm the traffic analysis conditions with City staff.
¦ Assess the impact of the project based on the results of the peak hour intersection analyses, the City's LOS
standards and application of the City's significance criteria. Based on this assessment, determine which
intersections (if any) will require improvements to mitigate potential traffic impacts associated with the
proposed project to less than significant levels.
¦ Provide recommended mitigation measures which may include intersection and/or signalization
improvements, striping modifications, the addition of auxiliary turn lanes, traffic control/limitations at site
access points, etc. Please note that this proposal assumes the recommended mitigation measures can be
adequately described within the text of the report. Should the City request preparation of plans to further
demonstrate the feasibility of the mitigation measures, an amendment to our contract will be necessary.
e Calculate the net traffic increment (fair-share percentage) due to the project at the impacted intersections.
Based on the required mitigation measures, estimate the project's fair-share towards the cost of the proposed
mitigation improvements.

An air quality impact and greenhouse gas technical analysis will be prepared consistent with the technical
requirements and methodologies outlined in the South Coast Air Quality Management District's (SCAQMD) CEQA
Air Quality Handbook (as updated per the revisions posted on the SCAQMD website), Localized Significance
Threshold Methodology for CEQA Evaluations, and Particulate Matter (PM) 2.5 Significance Thresholds and
Calculation Methodology guidance documents.
Climate change/GHG emissions, specific methodologies and thresholds will be developed based on information
provided in the California Air Resources Board (CARE) publication Local Government Operations Protocol for the
Quantification and Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventories and consultations with City and SCAQMD
staff members. The air quality assessment will consist of the following:
¦ Regulatory Setting. The regulatory setting will include pertinent air quality statutes and regulations, including
the federal Clean Air Act, California and National Ambient Air Quality Standards, and SCAQMD Air Quality
Management Plan (AQMP) consistency.
¦ Existing Air Quality Conditions. The project site is located within the SCAQMD Source Receptor Area No. 17
(Central Orange County), and as such, local air quality will be characterized by ambient air quality data
collected at the Anaheim ambient air monitoring station. A summary of regional meteorology and local air

quality conditions as measured at said monitoring station and a description of monitoring data compares to
national and state ambient air quality standards.
e Construction-Period Mass Emissions. A construction emissions inventory that will include combustion
emissions related to construction equipment operation; fugitive emissions related to site preparation and
earthmoving activities; mobile source emissions related to construction worker and haul truck trips; and ROC
emissions related architectural coating application and asphalt pavement. The emission inventory will then be
compiled on a daily basis and compared to SCAQMD regional emissions and localized emissions thresholds to
determine significance.
¦ Operations-Period Mass Emissions Analysis. A regional emissions inventory including a quantification of
mobile source emissions related to project-generated traffic and stationary source emissions related to energy
demand (i.e., electricity and natural gas consumption) will be included in the analysis. This emission inventory
will be compiled using the URBEMIS 2007 land use emissions model, or other approved model, and compared
to applicable SCAQMD daily emissions thresholds to determine significance.
¦ Localized Carbon Monoxide Concentration Analysis. The analysis will include the degree to which project-
related traffic volumes have a potential to effect local carbon monoxide (CO) concentrations using California
Department of Transportation CO Hotspot Protocol. Potential impacts will be evaluated utilizing the CALINE4
dispersion model and EMFAC 2007 emissions factors at up to 8 intersection locations for six scenarios (Le.,
Existing No-Project, Existing with Project, Existing with Project Alternative, Future No-Project, Future with
Project, and Future with Project Alternative).
¦ Potential for Health Risk Impacts. Based on a review of the Project Description, a quantitative health risk
assessment (HRA) will not be required. Impacts related to toxic air contaminant (TAC) emissions during short-
term construction and long-term operations will be evaluated qualitatively.
¦ Climate Change/Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Using guidance detailed in the Local Government Operations
Protocol for the Quantification and Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventories (CARB, September 25,
2008), project-related GHG emissions will be estimated using the a combination of approved software
programs and the GHG calculation formulas provided in the California Climate Action Registry, General
Reporting Protocol, Reporting Entity-Wide Greenhouse Gas Emissions, version 3.1. Significance criteria will be
developed based on discussions with SCAQMD and City staff members, using the CARB preliminary draft staff
proposal Recommended Approaches for Setting Interim Significance Thresholds for Greenhouse Gases under the
California Environmental Quality Act (CARB, October 24, 2008) and the Preliminary Draft CEQA Guideline
Amendments for Greenhouse Gas Emissions (OPR, January 8, 2009) as points of departure.
¦ Consistency with AQMP. The analysis will evaluate the project's consistency with the SCAQMD's 2007 AQMP
in accordance with the procedures set forth by the SCAQMD.
¦ Mitigation Measures. Mitigation measures will be developed, where applicable, to address any significant air
quality impacts.
Noise Impact Study
ICF will conduct a noise analysis for the proposed project in accordance with CEQA requirements. Our local noise
engineer is certified by the Institute of Noise Control Engineers and has conducted numerous analyses for projects
involving residential uses. The Noise Impact Study will:
¦ Identify relevant noise regulations (City, State and federal) and determine significance thresholds by which to
compare potential project impacts.
¦ Identify existing land uses in the project area along with existing sources of noise, including the nearby
roadways.
¦ Quantify existing noise conditions in the project area based on noise measurements. Five short-term noise
measurements (10-15 minutes in duration) and one long-term measurement (24 hour) are included within this

scope of work. The short-term noise measurements will be conducted at potentially sensitive noise receivers
and the long-term measurement will be conducted on the project site.
to Evaluate construction noise based on construction equipment data to be provided by the City and noise
modeling methods recommended by the U.S. Department of Transportation.
• Model conditions using traffic data provided by LLG, traffic noise along project-adjacent roadways and noise
generated by the neighboring land uses, using the most recent version of the FHWA-approved traffic noise
prediction model. Key roadway segments will be assessed, to adequately determine existing and future
conditions.
• Predict noise from the on-site operations (i.e., traffic, parking lot, and project equipment) at the nearest noise-
sensitive land uses using data from similar, prior projects and available published data.
e Give special consideration to nearby sensitive receptors, including existing residences and hotel.
The significance of noise impacts will be assessed based on relevant thresholds (City of Santa Ana, State and
federal). If significant noise impacts are identified, mitigation measures to reduce impacts to a less-than-
significant level (where feasible) will be recommended. The findings of the noise analysis will be included in a
technical report provided as an Appendix to the EIR and summarized in the noise section of the EIR.
Cultural Resource Evaluation
ICF recommends that a records search, locality search, site visit, and assessment report be prepared to evaluate
the potential for archeological and paleontological resources to be found on the project site. This evaluation will:
¦ Conduct research records at the South Central Coastal Information Center of the California Historical
Resources Information System (CHRIS).
o Survey the site in accordance with professional standards and methodologies. For costing, we assume no
resources will be identified in the field requiring evaluation.
• Will follow the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology's guidelines related to paleontological resources, which are
widely accepted as an industry standard.
¦ Assess the project-related risks to paleontological resources by utilizing published geologic and
paleontological literature and museum databases, likely including the databases of the Los Angeles County
Museum of Natural History, San Bernardino County Museum, University of California Riverside, California
Academy of Sciences, and University of California Museum of Paleontology in Berkeley.
The findings of the cultural resource evaluation will be included in a technical report provided as an Appendix to
the EIR and summarized in the Cultural Resource section of the EIR.
Task 5. Prepare Administrative Draft EIR
To utilize time most efficiently, preparation of the technical studies would occur concurrently with preparation of
the Administrative Draft EIR.
ICF will prepare a fully edited Administrative Draft EIR for the City's review and comment. The Administrative Draft
EIR will include all of the required components as outlined in the CEQA Statutes and Guidelines and will
incorporate relevant case law and recent legislation. ICF will also consult with responsible agencies, review
available information, and prepare the appropriate analysis for the respective issues.
The EIR will focus on the potentially significant environmental impacts identified in the IS/NOP. The EIR will
synthesize the previously identified technical studies and provide a qualitative analysis of the other environmental
resource areas. The EIR will include a discussion of the existing conditions/affected environment, environmental
impacts, levels of significance of the impacts, and appropriate mitigation measures for each environmental

discipline, as needed. As required, the documents will include a discussion of direct, indirect, growth-inducing, and
cumulative impacts.
Following the City's review and approval of the administrative draft documents, ICF will incorporate the City's
comments and will revise the document accordingly. For scoping and costing purposes, we have assumed one
round of administrative draft submittals.
Cumulative Impacts
The cumulative impacts analysis will focus on the potential for environmental impacts from this project, along with
other proposed and reasonably foreseeable projects in the area. We will develop the list of cumulative projects in
coordination with City staff, and reach out to surrounding jurisdictions. We will evaluate and discuss the project's
contribution to the overall cumulative baseline to identify "cumulatively considerable" impacts. Mitigation
measures will be developed for any cumulatively considerable impacts, if applicable.
Alternatives Analysts
ICF will work closely with the City to identify and screen a reasonable range of alternatives for analysis in the EIR.
In accordance with CEQA, we will qualitatively analyze the alternatives at a reduced level of detail in comparison to
the proposed project, and we will compare the impacts of each of the alternatives with those of the proposed
project, which will be presented in a narrative and a matrix format. CEQA requires that the FIR identify an
environmentally superior alternative, and this summary matrix format will support that determination. We assume
that the alternatives analysis will involve the No Project Alternative, a Reduced Project Alternative, and up to two
other potential build-out scenarios.
Growth-Inducing Impacts
ICF will evaluate whether the proposed project would have the potential to directly or indirectly foster economic
or population growth. This will include an assessment of whether the project or its components would directly
contribute to growth or remove obstacles to population growth, such as through the extension of infrastructure.
We will evaluate whether the project would result in additional impacts to existing community resources or would
encourage and facilitate other activities that could significantly affect the environment.
Significant Irreversible Environmental Changes
ICF will summarize the significant unavoidable impacts resulting from the project and will identify any significant
irreversible changes and irretrievable commitments of the environment. This will include a discussion of the use of
nonrenewable resources, permanent conversion of land uses, improvements to areas previously inaccessible, and
other factors that would commit future generations to similar environmental effects.
Effects Found Not To Be Significant
ICF will provide a qualitative explanation of issues found not to be significant during the IS process, as well as
effects that were studied in the EIR that were determined to be less than significant.

Task 6. Prepare Screencheck Draft EIR and Distribute Public Review Draft EIR
Following the City's review of the Administrative Draft EIR, we will revise the document and prepare a Screencheck
Draft incorporating the City's comments prior to distribution of the public Draft EIR. The budget and schedule
assumes two rounds of review and revision of the Public Review Draft EIR. We will finalize the Draft EIR and
submit up to 20 hardcopies and 20 CDs to the City for distribution during the 45-day public review period. We will
draft the Notice of Availability (NOA), NOC, and assist with media notices. ICF will submit the NOC to the State
Clearinghouse along with the requisite number of copies of the document. If requested by the City, ICF will assist
with distribution and mailing of the Draft EIR to agencies or persons on a mailing list provided by the City. It is
assumed that posting the NOA at the County Clerk and any mailings to local residents or newspaper notices
would be prepared and distributed by the City and is outside of this scope of work.

Task 7. Prepare Administrative Final EIR
Prepare Response to Comments
ICF will work closely with City staff to prepare responses to comments for comment letters received during the
public review period. Traffic related comments will be coordinated with, and responded by LLG. These responses
to comments, along with any changes to the draft environmental document, will be submitted to the City first as
an Administrative Final EIR. ICF will prepare the Administrative Final EIR according to the City-approved format,
which may include either a separate document that includes only the changed text or a reproduction of the Draft
EIR with redline and strikeout text. We assume 60 hours of ICF technical staffs time to respond to comments.
Additionally, 12 hours of Senior Transportation Engineer support and 4 hours of Principal Engineer support is
allocated for response to comments within the TIA budget.
Prepare Mitigation, Monitoring, and Reporting Program
ICF will prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) that will identify mitigation measures,
timing, responsibility for implementation, and monitoring methods. We will work with City staff to identify
appropriate responsible parties, methods, and timing. ICF will provide the MMRP in conjunction with the screen-
check Final EIR.
Prepare Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations
ICF will draft a findings of fact, and, if necessary, a statement of overriding considerations for the decision makers
prior to certification of the Final EIR.

Task 9. Attend Meetings and Project Administration
Project Coordination Meetings with City Staff and Applicant
ICF and LLG staff will be available to attend project meetings with City staff. These may include meetings with the
applicant to understand the project, administrative draft document review meetings, focused issue discussion
meetings, or preparation for public hearings. For budgeting purposes, we propose to attend up to 3 project
coordination meetings.
Planning Commission and City Council Public Hearing(s)
ICF and LLG will be available to attend Planning Commission and City Council Hearings related to the proposed
project. We will produce presentation materials as necessary, and be available to discuss the environmental review
process and results of the Draft and Final EIRs. We will assist City staff, at their direction, through the public
comment and certification processes, briefings to commissioners and City Council members, and other means of
support as may be appropriate. For budgeting purposes, we propose to attend one Planning Commission Hearing
and one City Council Hearing.
Deliverables:
¦ Three project coordination meetings
¦ One meeting before the Planning Commission
¦ One meetings before the City Council
¦ Additional meetings as necessary (to be billed separately on a time and materials basis)
EIR Schedule
The ICF proposed EIR work schedule shown below outlines the timeframes for the tasks described in Scope of
Services and includes time for City review, comment, and redraft of the documents, discussion, and deliberation
throughout the project. This schedule represents our best estimate based on what we currently know of the
project, and assumes that all project description information will be available at the kick-off meeting. We will
refine the schedule as part of Task 1, and will work with the City to develop a mutually agreeable schedule should
adjustments be needed.
