EXHIBIT 2 Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation avoided by the project. If cultural materials are discovered during construction, all earth- moving activity within and around the immediate discovery area will be diverted until a qualified archaeologist can assess the nature and significance of the find. If changes are made to the proposed project, an additional archaeological survey would be required to include areas not previously surveyed. 6.10 Historic Resources Evaluation Report (HRER) Thirty-four built environment properties were evaluated in the HRER. The Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad was determined ineligible for the National Register and the California Register in 2007, as was 1102 East Fruit Street in 2004. 917 Logan Street was surveyed in 1980 and was determined to be a 5D2. Due to a lack of supporting documentation of that finding and because it was assessed more than 20 years ago, it has been re-evaluated and determined individually ineligible for the National Register and California Register. The Orange County Maintenance Yard was previously determined eligible for the National Register by State Historic Preservation Officier (SHPO) on December 27, 2004. A re-assessment of the determination and supporting documentation for 1102 East Fruit Street concluded that the finding in 2004 was in error and the Orange County Road Department Maintenance Yard is ineligible for the National Register and the California Register. All of the evaluated properties have been found to be ineligible for the National Register and the California Register and are not considered historical resources for the purposes of CEQA. All other properties within the APE meet the criteria for Section 106 PA Attachment 4 (Properties Exempt from Evaluation). No impacts were identified and no avoidance, minimization and/or mitigation measures were needed. 6.11 Community Impact Assessment (CIA) The Community Impact Assessment considers how the proposed project would affect the people, neighborhoods, communities, businesses, and larger social and economic systems. The findings of the CIA concludes that the proposed project would not introduce an incompatible use in the area, the pattern and rate of population and housing growth would be consistent with those contemplated in existing regional and local plans for the area, and the proposed project would have beneficial effect on community. Cumulative impacts are not expected to be cumulatively considerable. The following avoidance and minimization measures shall be implemented: TRF-1 Prepare and implement a Traffic Management Plan (TMP). The TMP will be provided to emergency service providers and school officials with construction plans prior to commencement of construction. The following shall be included in the TMP or carried out in coordination with the TMP: • Implement a construction management program that maintains access to and from the project area community through signage, detours, flagmen, etc. • Coordinate with emergency services providers to ensure that alternative response routes to and from the project area community are in place during construction of the proposed project. • Provide access to all fire hydrants along all access routes and provide and maintain fire department vehicle access roads along project site. • Consult with local school officials to indentify safe vehicular routes and pedestrian crossing for student traveling to and from schools in the project area community during construction of the proposed project. • Coordinate with the utility providers for relocation of ut9ility lines and inform the utility users in advance about the date and timings of service disruptions.
