SANTA ANA REZONE PROJECT INITIAL STUDY/MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION implementation of this mitigation would reduce potential impacts related to human remains to a less than significant level. Tribal Cultural Resources Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a Tribal Cultural Resource, defined in Public Resources Code Section 21074 as either a site, feature, place, cultural landscape that is geographically defined in terms of the size and scope of the landscape, sacred place, or object with cultural value to a California Native American Tribe, and that is: d) Listed or eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources, or in a local register of historical resources as defined in Public Resources Code Section 5020.1(k), or Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. A review of the CRHR, local registers of historic resources, the SCCIC records search, and the NAHC SLF search results, and subsequent Tribal representative outreach failed to identify any listed or eligible for listing TCRs that may be adversely affected by the proposed project. Should any undiscovered TCRs be encountered during project construction, implementation of MM CUL-1 and MM CUL-2 would ensure that undiscovered TCRs are not adversely affected by project -related construction activities. e) A resource determined by the lead agency, in its discretion and supported by substantial evidence, to be significant pursuant to criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resources Code Section 5024.1. In applying the criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resource Code Section 5024.1, the lead agency shall consider the significance of the resource to a California Native American Tribe. Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated.
