<br />City Place <br />Focused Environmental Impact Report <br /> <br />Findings and Facts in Support of Findings <br /> <br />As discussed in Section 4.7 in the EIR, although the construction of the City Place would not <br />result in significant adverse noise impacts, project enhancement measures N-l, N-2, N-3 and N-6 <br />below are incorporated in the proposed City Place project to minimize the generation of noise <br />during construction, <br /> <br />N-l During all site preparation, grading and construction, the contractor will be required to <br />ensure that all construction equipment is in proper operating condition and fitted with <br />standard factory noise attenuation features, All equipment shall be properly maintained to <br />assure that no additional noise, due to worn or improperly maintained parts, would be <br />generated, <br /> <br />N-2 During final design, the applicant will prepare a traffic haul plan for review and approval <br />by the City of Santa Ana, The contractor will be required to use only the approved haul <br />routes to minimize exposure of sensitive receptors to potential adverse noise levels from <br />hauling operations, <br /> <br />N-3 During all site preparation, grading and construction, the contractor will be required to <br />site all construction staging and storage areas away from Lawson Way, to minimize noise <br />impacts on the senior citizen retirement facility on the east side of Lawson Way <br /> <br />N-6 Construction operations for the proposed project shall be limited to 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM <br />Monday through Saturday, and no construction operations on Sunday or Federal <br />Holidays. <br /> <br />Level of Significance of Impacts Related to Construction Noise <br /> <br />Construction related noise impacts associated with the project would be less than significant. <br /> <br />Findings Related to Operational Exterior Noise Impacts <br /> <br />Project enhancement measures have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which <br />lessen operational exterior noise impacts as identified in the EIR. <br /> <br />Facts in Support ofthe Finding Related to Operational Exterior Noise Impacts <br /> <br />As discussed in Section 4, 7 (Noise) in the EIR, even though the operation of the City Place <br />project will not result in significant adverse noise impacts, project enhancement measure N-4 <br />below, is designed to reduce noise levels associated with mechanical equipment. In addition, the <br />operation of the proposed City Place project will be required to comply with City of Santa Ana <br />Ordinances related to noise control during operations, <br /> <br />N-4 Mechanical equipment shall be acoustically engineered, incorporating mufflers, <br />enclosures, parapets and/or other noise attenuation features, so that noise generated by the <br />operation of this equipment does not exceed the applicable City noise standard at <br />sensitive receptor locations, <br /> <br />U: IDBottlwp51 ICity Place findings. doc <br />September 29, 2004 <br /> <br />Page 19 <br /> <br />75A-141 <br /> <br />
