EXHIBIT 2 <br /> Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation <br /> implemented with the concurrence of the District Landscape Architect. In summary, <br /> substantial adverse effects under NEPA are not anticipated. <br /> The following avoidance and minimization measures shall be implemented: <br /> VIS-1 The project will be implemented in adherence to the guidance found in Caltrans' <br /> Highway Design Manual and other Caltrans memoranda regarding landscape design policy, <br /> which mandates consideration of the local design context in which the work is proposed and <br /> obtaining the input of local governmental agencies. In addition, the project will be designed <br /> and implemented with the concurrence of the District Landscape Architect. <br /> 6.7 Relocation Impact Memo <br /> The project would affect 16 distinct nonresidential properties. Of these, seven nonresidential <br /> properties (composed of nine parcels) would be fully acquired and would result in <br /> displacement requiring relocation. An additional two nonresidential properties would be <br /> partially acquired (sliver takes) and would require some property reconfiguration but would <br /> not result in displacement. Nine properties, including portions of two of the partially acquired <br /> properties mentioned previously, would require a temporary construction easement. Based <br /> on real estate listings and the professional opinions of two local commercial real estate <br /> agents, there appear to be a sufficient supply of adequate sites to relocate all of the <br /> displacees within the immediate vicinity of the City of Santa Ana. Given the availability of <br /> suitable properties in the immediate vicinity of the project, displacement and relocation of <br /> businesses would not result in substantial hardship. Relocation assistance benefits or <br /> entitlements would be provided to displacees in accordance with the Uniform Relocation <br /> Assistance and Real Property Act of 1970, as amended. <br /> Any person (individual, family, corporation, partnership, or association) who moves from real <br /> property or moves personal property from real property as a result of the acquisition of the <br /> real property, or required to relocate as a result of a written notice from the City of Santa <br /> Ana from the real property required for a transportation project is eligible for "Relocation <br /> Assistance." All activities will be conducted in accordance with the Uniform Relocation <br /> Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, as amended. Relocation <br /> resources shall be available to all displacees, in compliance with Title VI, free of <br /> discrimination. <br /> 6.8 Historical Properties Survey Report (HPSR) <br /> The HSPR determined a finding of No Historic Properties Affected. Concurrence on this <br /> determination was received from the State Historic Prservation Officer on February 2, 2012. <br /> 6.9 Archaeological Survey Report (ASR) <br /> No archaeological resources have been previously recorded within the project area of <br /> potential effect (APE), and no new cultural resources were observed within the project APE <br /> for the proposed project during the field survey. Given the geologic setting and the level of <br /> previous disturbance within the project APE, the potential to encounter buried prehistoric <br /> resources or historic-period archaeological resources within the project APE is considered to <br /> be low. <br /> The following avoidance and minimization measure which is standard on all Caltrans' project <br /> will be implemented: <br /> CR-1 It is the Department's policy to avoid cultural resources whenever possible. Further <br /> investigations may be needed if unanticipated cultural sites are encountered that cannot be <br /> PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 20 <br />
