B. Findings The City finds that: Operational emissions associated with the proposed project would exceed the SCAQMD's thresholds of significance for ROG and NOx even with the incorporation of Mitigation Measures AQ -4 through AQ -10. There are no identified mitigation measures that could be implemented that would reduce ROG and NOx emissions below the SCAQMD threshold. Transportation and Traffic A. Facts The project would conflict with an applicable plan establishing measures of effectiveness for the performance of the circulation system and would result in both project level and cumulatively considerable significant and unavoidable impacts. The addition of project traffic to the existing traffic conditions in the project area would result in exceeclance of traffic criteria and thresholds of significance. The needed intersection and roadway improvements that would reduce these impacts are identified in Mitigation Measures TRA -1 through TRA -17. However, several of the improvements are not within the control of the City of Santa Ana to implement, and implementation of several improvements cannot be guaranteed As a result, the traffic impacted locations that are outside of the City of Santa Ana's jurisdiction are significant and unavoidable, These locations include: Intersection of Grand Avenue at Dyer Road (City of Santa Ana /Caltrans) • Intersection of Red Trill Avenue at Valencia Avenue (City of Tustin) a Intersection of SR -55 Northbound Ramps at Dyer Road (City of Santa Ana /Caltrans) The Heritage Mixed Use Project 37 ESA M0730 Statement of rack and Findings September 2016 75A -183
