CITY OF SANTA ANA SHORT-TERM RENTAL PROHIBITION ORDINANCE <br />CITY OF SANTA ANA <br />4. Evaluation of Environmental Impacts <br /> Page 27 <br />term disposition of any collected materials should be determined in consultation with the <br />affiliated tribe(s), where relevant; this could include curation with a recognized scientific or <br />educational repository, transfer to the tribe, or respectful reinternment in an area designated <br />by the tribe. a qualified archaeologist shall monitor all ground-disturbing construction and pre- <br />construction activities in areas with previously undisturbed soil. The archaeologist shall inform <br />all construction personnel prior to construction activities of the proper procedures in the <br />event of an archaeological discovery. The training shall be held in conjunction with the <br />project’s initial on-site safety meeting and shall explain the importance and legal basis for the <br />protection of significant archaeological resources. In the event that archaeological resources <br />(artifacts or features) are exposed during ground-disturbing activities, construction activities <br />in the immediate vicinity of the discovery shall be halted while the resources are evaluated for <br />significance by an archaeologist who meets the Secretary’s Standards, and tribal consultation <br />shall be conducted in the case of a tribal resource. If the discovery proves to be significant, <br />the long-term disposition of any collected materials should be determined in consultation with <br />the affiliated tribe(s), where relevant; this could include curation with a recognized scientific <br />or educational repository, transfer to the tribe, or respectful reinternment in an area designated <br />by the tribe. <br />CUL-7 If an Archaeological Resources Assessment does not identify potentially significant <br />archaeological resources but the site has moderate sensitivity for archaeological resources <br />(Mitigation Measure CUL-4), an archaeologist who meets the Secretary’s Standards shall be <br />retained on call. The archaeologist shall inform all construction personnel prior to <br />construction activities about the proper procedures in the event of an archaeological discovery. <br />The pre-construction training shall be held in conjunction with the project’s initial on-site <br />safety meeting and shall explain the importance and legal basis for the protection of significant <br />archaeological resources. In the event that archaeological resources (artifacts or features) are <br />exposed during ground-disturbing activities, construction activities in the immediate vicinity <br />of the discovery shall be halted while the on-call archaeologist is contacted. The resource shall <br />be evaluated for significance and tribal consultation shall be conducted, in the case of a tribal <br />resource. If the discovery proves to be significant, the long-term disposition of any collected <br />materials should be determined in consultation with the affiliated tribe(s), where relevant. <br />Analysis of the Modified Project <br />The Modified Project expressly prohibits STRs and only affects existing structures. The Modified Project would <br />not require development, redevelopment, or changes to existing development types in the city; construction <br />activities would not occur under the Modified Project. Additionally, the existing conditions related to cultural <br />resources have not changed since the certification of the GP EIR. The Modified Project is not anticipated to <br />result in any physical impacts on the environment. Thus, the Modified Project would not impact historical <br />resources or archeological resources or disturb human remains. No impacts would occur. The Modified Project <br />would not result in any new or more severe significant impacts than those identified in the GP EIR. <br />Exhibit 3 - Environmental Analysis
