City of Santa Ana Addendum to the <br />MainPlace Mall Transformation Proiect Fashion Square Commercial Center Final EIR <br />CAP Goals I Compliance <br />water, and waste disposal. <br />Solid Waste, Water, and Wastewater Measures <br />GOAL 24: AB 341 Commercial and <br />Consistent. The Project would implement a solid waste recycling <br />Multifamily Recycling <br />system in compliance with State and local regulations. <br />GOAL 25: Food Waste Digestion <br />Consistent. The existing MainPlace Mall has piloted a composting <br />project with select restaurants and eateries. The food waste is <br />converted to Biofuel, which provides electricity to a Waste & Water <br />Treatment Plant in the City of Carson. The program is expected to <br />continue (https://www.shopmainplacemall.com/sustainability/). <br />GOAL 26: Rainwater Harvesting <br />Consistent. The proposed Project would install storm water <br />detention systems that would infiltrate runoff onsite. In addition, <br />runoff would be routed to onsite landscaped areas. <br />GOAL 27: Turf Removal <br />Consistent. No turf exists onsite. The Project includes landscaping <br />alternatives to turf. <br />* Note that emissions reduction from these measures include natural gas and electricity savings. <br />**Emissions reduction from these measures is due entirely to natural gas savings. <br />***Emissions reduction from these measures is due entirely to electricity savings. <br />Source: Greenhouse Gas Emissions Assessment, 2019 <br />Conclusion for Air Quality <br />Overall, impacts related to air quality (including GHGs) from implementation of the <br />proposed Project would be less than significant. Thus, no new or substantially greater <br />air quality impacts would occur with implementation of the proposed Project when <br />compared to those identified in the 1983 EIR or 1996 Addendum. <br />Based on the foregoing, none of the conditions identified in CEQA Guidelines section <br />15162 that would trigger the need to prepare a subsequent or supplemental EIR or <br />other environmental document to evaluate Project impacts or mitigation measures exist <br />regarding air quality. There have not been 1) changes to the Project that require major <br />revisions of the previous adopted EIR due to the involvement of new significant <br />environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified <br />effects; 2) substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the <br />Project is undertaken that require major revisions of the previous adopted EIR due to <br />the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the <br />severity of previously identified effects; or 3) the availability of new information of <br />substantial importance relating to significant effects or mitigation measures or <br />alternatives that were not known and could not have been known when the 1983 EIR <br />was adopted as completed. <br />Mitigation Measures <br />The 1983 EIR described that increased air emissions would result from increased traffic <br />and increased use of electricity and natural gas, and references mitigation measures to <br />be designed to reduce the generation of traffic and usage of electricity and natural gas <br />in other sections of the EIR; no specific air quality mitigation measures were identified. <br />123 <br />
