Chapter 3 Findings Regarding Project Alternatives <br />¦ Proposed Mitigation Measure. Revise mitigation measure MM4.6-1 to require future <br />development projects to adhere to "[...] the 4`' term Municipal NPDES Stormwater Permit for <br />the Santa Ana Region of Orange County as adopted on May 11, 2009." (Letter from Orange <br />County Public Works, dated June 3, 2010, comment OCPW-3.) <br />Finding. The Agency finds that specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other <br />considerations make this mitigation measure infeasible. <br />Rationale. Because the majority of the future development of the Transit Zoning Code may occur <br />years in the future, requiring development projects to comply with "current National Pollutant <br />Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements" ensures compliance with the most up-to- <br />date standards over a long period of time, since the requirements that are in effect today may differ <br />in the future. Writing the mitigation measure in this way places the responsibility of complying <br />with NPDES regulations on future project proponents, regardless of how the regulations change <br />over time. Therefore, the City will adopt mitigation measure MM4.6-1 as set forth in the EIR. <br />Finding Related to Clarifications and Updates to the EIR in Response to Comments <br />Received Since the Planning Commission Hearing on May 27, 2010 <br />Finding. Responses to all written and oral comments on the EIR received since the Planning <br />Commission Hearing on May 27, 2010, merely clarify and amplify the analysis presented in the EIR and <br />do not trigger the need to recirculate per CEQA Guidelines ?15088.5(b). <br />3-22 Revised Station District Project and FOL Settlement Agreement Findings of Fact/Statement of Overriding <br />Considerations
