- An intensive, pedestrian, archaeological and architectural history survey of the site that will be detailed in a Survey/Inventory Report - A Cultural Resources Data Recovery and Mitigation & Monitoring Plan, referred to below as the Cultural Resources Management Plan Deliverable(s) - Overview Report, Survey/Inventory Report, and Cultural Resources Management Plan for incorporation into the EIS/EIR. Paleontology - The Cordoba team will review existing data on paleontological sensitivity and conduct a pedestrian -level reconnaissance survey. A literature review of sensitive geological formations may be generally sufficient, given the urban nature of the site, and will include maps of sensitive areas. This EIS/EIR section will follow CEQ directives, policies, and procedures and include a site characterization, potential for paleontological finds, and mitigation. Deliverable(s) - Paleontology Technical Report with analysis for incorporation into the EIS/EIR. Biological Technical Report, Biological Assessment, and Consultation (if needed) - Although the preponderance of the site is urban is setting, the alternatives do cross the Santa Ana River, and a portion of the project is on the vacant PE Right -of -Way, which will require characterization and may include some special status species. The Cordoba team will conduct vegetation mapping, biological field surveys, and will prepare a draft BA. As applicable, a preliminary delineation of U.S. waterways and a Jurisdictional Delineation Report will be prepared. We will develop a generalized assessment of impacts for the EIS/EIR in the biological technical report, BA, and species-specific survey data. All survey data will be incorporated into a Biological Technical Report, as well as an ESA biological assessment and other biological related reports provided by the Cordoba team. - A literature review will be conducted to identify common and special status biological resources, and illuminate likely permitting constraints within or adjacent to the project area. - The Cordoba team will informally consult with all relevant and applicable regulatory agencies as needed to identify permitting requirements, mitigation, minimization, and avoidance measures associated with project implementation. At present, the need for resources agencies discretionary permitting and mitigation is unclear. If necessary, we will conduct a limited number of additional field surveys to adequately assess any potential effects resulting from the project based on the work plan finalized as a result of Subtask 10.1. Deliverable(s) - Biological Technical Report, Biological Assessment Preliminary Jurisdictional Delineation. and Consultation (if needed) with analysis for incorporation into the EIS/EIR. • Energy, Utilities & Public Services - It is not likely that the project alternatives will significantly increase demands for utilities and services. However, the alternatives will be examined for potential impacts to emergency routes and response times due to temporary lane closures during construction. An energy consumption analysis will also be performed. 321Page
