Community Plan Exemption Checklist <br />City of Santa Ana Gary Avenue Business Park Project <br /> <br />38 <br /> <br />Operation <br />Operational activities associated with the Project would result in emissions of CO, VOCs, NOX, SOX, PM10, <br />and PM2.5. Operational related emissions are expected from the following primary sources: area source <br />emissions, energy source emissions, mobile source emissions, and on-site equipment emissions. Implementation <br />of the proposed Project would result in long-term regional emissions of criteria air pollutants and ozone <br />precursors associated with area sources, such as natural gas consumption, landscaping, applications of <br />architectural coatings, and consumer products. Operational vehicular emissions would generate a majority <br />of the emissions from implementation of the Project. <br /> <br />Operational emissions associated with the proposed Project were modeled using CalEEMod and are <br />presented in Table AQ-3. As shown, the proposed Project would result in long-term regional emissions of <br />criteria pollutants, however, these emissions would be below the SCAQMD’s applicable thresholds. Therefore, <br />the Project’s operational emissions would not exceed the NAAQS and CAAQS, would not result in a <br />cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant, and impacts would be less than significant. <br /> <br />Table AQ-3: Proposed Project Operational Emissions <br /> <br />Source <br />Reactive <br />Organic <br />Gases <br />(ROG) <br />Nitrogen <br />Oxide <br />(NOx) <br />Carbon <br />Monoxide <br />(CO) <br />Sulfur <br />Dioxide <br />(SO2) <br />Coarse <br />Particulate <br />Matter (PM10) <br />Fine <br />Particulate <br />Matter (PM2.5) Summer Emissions <br />Area Source Emissions 2.11 0.00 0.02 0.00 0.00 0.00 <br />Energy Emissions 0.01 0.10 0.08 0.00 0.00 0.00 <br />Mobile Emissions 0.52 6.65 6.34 0.04 2.80 0.81 <br />Off-road Emissions 1.97 16.47 15.95 0.04 0.85 0.78 <br />Total Emissions 4.61 23.22 22.39 0.08 3.65 1.59 <br />SCAQMD Threshold 55 55 550 150 55 150 <br />Exceeds Threshold?

The daily construction emissions generated onsite by the proposed Project are evaluated <br />against SCAQMD’s Localized Significance Thresholds (LSTs) to determine whether the emissions would cause <br />or contribute to adverse localized air quality impacts. Receptor locations are off-site locations where <br />individuals may be exposed to emissions from Project activities. <br /> <br />Some people are especially sensitive to air pollution and are given special consideration when evaluating <br />air quality impacts from projects. These groups of people include children, the elderly, individuals with pre- <br />existing respiratory or cardiovascular illness, and athletes and others who engage in frequent exercise. <br />Structures that house these persons or places where they gather to exercise are defined as “sensitive <br />8/22/2022 <br />Planning Commission 2 – 77
