Approximately 175 persons could be employed on site, working multiple shift periods within the conditioned hours of operation. The interior operation hours are conditioned to be 24/7, and deliveries to/from the site and loading/unloading operations would be conditioned from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Hours of Operation Permitted Prohibited Inside building operations 24 hours/7 days per week ---- Outside building operations 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. 11:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. The Project site is zoned MR-Restricted Manufacturing in the Zoning Map and designated Light Industrial on the General Plan Land Use Map. The proposed assembly and light manufacturing building and use is permitted in the MR-Restricted Manufacturing zoning district and is consistency with the City’s General Plan land use designation for the site. Pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15063, an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared for this proposal (Attached 5). SITE AND SURROUNDING AREA: The Project site is located along Barton Road between Terrace Avenue and La Crosse Avenue in the western portion of the City. The site is surrounded by existing commercial to the north, existing residential uses to the northwest, a Southern California Edison overhead line to the west, and existing commercial/industrial buildings to the south and east. A former railroad grade for the Southern Pacific Railroad is adjacent west alongside the site. The site abuts the City of Colton to the south and is in close proximity to Colton’s boundary to the west. The Project site is currently vacant and includes a 12-feet-wide storm drain alignment to the southwest, asphalt/paved parking areas, concrete slab, and sparse vegetation and trees. Soils onsite consist of alluvium, comprised of clay, silt and gravel. The overall site topography is generally flat and slopes downward to the south at a gradient of less than one percent, with the exception of some local variation. Site elevation is approximately 970 feet above mean sea level. Surrounding land uses are as follows: C.1 Packet Pg. 9 General Plan Land Use Designation Zoning Existing Land Use North Northwest Industrial Medium Density Residential (MR) Restricted Manufacturing (R-3) Medium Density Residential Barton Road Business Park, Class B Industrial Residential East General Commercial (C2) General Commercial Laboratory building for a water testing company South City of Colton-Light Industrial City of Colton-(M-1) Light Industrial City of Colton, La Crosse Business Park West Utility Easement City of Colton-Light Industrial City of Colton-(M-1) Light Industrial Disturbed vacant lot The Project site has multiple easements traversing the property, some of which are proposed to be quitclaimed.

Permitted uses may include light manufacturing and assembly, small scale warehousing and distribution, research and development, and administrative and service types of uses. The site is designated Restricted Manufacturing District (MR) on the Zoning Map. The purpose C.1 Packet Pg. 11 of the MR District is to provide for the development of low intensity and low impact light manufacturing and industrial uses. Manufacturing and industrial uses that operate free of objectionable noise, dust, odor, or other nuisances to other (non-industrial uses) in planned, architecturally integrated building groups would be allowable uses. Permitted uses in the MR district include, but are not limited to, agricultural and nursery supplies and services; automotive related services (including motorcycles, boats, recreational vehicles, trailers, and campers); parts and supplies; building maintenance services and supplies sales; communication services; laundry/cleaning services; light manufacturing; printing/reproduction services; public storage facilities; and research services. The Project is consistent with the City’s General Plan land use designation and zoning designation. The Project meets the zoning development standards. The Municipal Code allows one hundred percent lot coverage minus the required parking and landscaping. The Project meets the parking requirement of 240 spaces, meets the height requirement of minimum 35 feet, meets the twenty-five front setback requirements, exceeds the 5% minimum landscape requirement, and complies with the outside loading dock storage and roof mechanical equipment screening requirements. Operation and Objectives The proposed building is a speculative building, and no specific tenant has been identified at this time by the Applicant. The typical anticipated operational activities would include employees and customers traveling to and from the site, delivery of materials and supplies to the site, truck loading and unloading, and light manufacturing activities. Racks, forklifts, shelving units, automatic machines, and conveyor belts are anticipated to be utilized within the interior of the building. Approximately 175 persons are anticipated to be employed on site, with one or more shift periods occurring each day. Municipal Code Section 8.108.050 (Item F), “Loading or Unloading of Trucks” stipulates that “no person shall create or cause to be created loud and excessive noise in connection with the loading or unloading of motor trucks and other vehicles, so as to disturb the peace and quiet of adjacent residential neighborhoods, between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. The loading or unloading in such a manner as to be loud or excessive at a distance of 50 feet from the trucks or vehicles being unloaded shall be prima facie evidence of a violation of this Section.” The Applicant has requested that those hours for the loading or unloading be lengthened by 2 hours. It is the discretion of the Planning Commission to consider these extended hours for the loading and unloading activities in the loading dock area. The conditions of approval as presented with this agenda item reflect the Applicant’s request for extended dock hours but can be modified upon direction from the Planning Commission. The Applicant is requesting 24/7 hours of operation inside the building pursuant to Municipal Code Section 18.06.032 “After-hours operation,” any use that has hours of operation at any time between 11:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. is considered to have “after-hours operation. The Applicant’s request for 24/7 hours of operation means that during “after-hours operation,” deliveries to the site and loading/unloading of materials are not permitted. C.1 Packet Pg. 12 The Applicant is requesting loading dock open at 6:00 a.m. and close at 11:00 p.m. All delivery, loading, and unloading activities would occur between those hours. All 18 loading docks for the Project are located on the southwest side of the building behind the security gate and fencing. This location was preferable as it is located the maximum distance away from sensitive receptors (residential uses), allowing the building and fencing to screen operations and noise from nearby sensitive receptors to the northwest. The Project is located more than 50 feet from sensitive land uses (existing residential neighborhood) buffered by the Barton Road public right - of-way. The Project will have 24/7 on-site security cameras and is conditioned for any future tenant to submit a security plan and operations plan to the San Bernardino County Sheriff and the Planning Director prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. Site Plan The site design conforms to setback, height limits, and lot coverage requirements of the MR- Restricted Manufacturing zone. The Project scope includes demolition and removal of existing concrete pads and asphalt paved areas, construction of perimeter wall and fencing, landscaping, parking, trash enclosure, lighting, security features, and construction of ultimate street improvements at the Project’s frontage (Attachment 2). The Project’s parking will include a combination of five-feet perimeter landscaping planter and diamond tree/landscape every two parking spaces, totaling 6.8 percent landscape coverage. The Project’s perimeter fencing to the east property line will include 6-foot-high wrought iron fence with green vines and decorative pilasters every 20 feet, the south side will have 8-feet high tubular fencing, and the west side will be a retaining wall with tubular fence on top with varying height not to exceed 6-feet. The loading docks and trailer area are located on the southwest of the property secured by 8-foot high manually operated metal gates. The storm drain and storm tech underground chambers for National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) are located in the southwest area. Parking lot lighting will not exceed 1.4 -foot candles at the property lines. In accordance with the Zoning Code, the Applicant is required to complete all right-of-way improvements including, but not limited, driveway approach, dedication, and restoration of any public improvements damaged during construction. In addition, the Project has been conditioned to complete the ultimate street frontage improvements once the City of Colton bridge street improvements are completed, in coordination with the City of Grand Terrace and City of Colon (Attachment 3). Access and Circulation The Project’s main 70 feet wide driveway for vehicular ingress and egress access will be off Barton Road at the Project’s northern boundary. The Project includes thirty (30) feet wide interior access around the perimeter of the building. An emergency vehicle access driveway will be located along the northern boundary, east of the main driveway, and secured with a commercial anti-crash gate. The proposed 170,152 square-foot building is required by the Municipal Code to provide a total of 240 parking spaces. The parking will include 7 accessible parking stalls and 48 EV capable (20 percent), with 12 stalls being full charging stations and 36 C.1 Packet Pg. 13 equipped with EV supply equipment for future use. Eighteen (18) trailer parking spaces will be provided, located in front of the corresponding loading dock door. This area is enclosed by a gated entrance on the west side and another on the south side, at the back of the building. Pedestrian access is located on the northeast side of the property and leads directly to the office area. Access and circulation improvements will be designed and constructed consistent with City design and engineering standards. The Project is proposing the ultimate street improvements at Barton Road, including dedication, underground utilities, streetscape, and compliance to conditions of approval established by the City Engineer with the Public Works Division. Landscape Plan The Project proposes approximately 26,645 square feet (6.6 percent of the site’s area) of landscaping, exceeding the 5 percent landscape requirement. The parking lot areas located on the northeast and northwest portions of the site would include 15-gallon to 24-inch box trees and 5-gallon shrubs. The proposed landscape will be visually pleasing within the Industrial zoning and will create screening between existing uses. Landscaping for the Project will be developed in accordance with the requirements of the Grand Terrace Municipal Code Title 15, Buildings and Construction, Section 15.56, Water Efficient Landscape, and has been conditioned accordingly. A final landscape and irrigation plan in accordance with the City's Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance will be required and landscape improvements will be completed prior to final building inspection. (Attachment 4) Architectural Elevations/Floor Plans The building will be concrete tilt-up panels’ construction with wall articulation in the form of projections, glass, metal accents, and variations in color. The floor plan is divided in three areas, including 4,800 square-foot of office space, 50,326 square-foot of assembly area, 115,026 square-foot of product storage area, and 18 loading docks and doors. The building height is 44- feet, and the rooftop HVAC equipment units will be screened from the street line of sight by the parapet height within the architecture of the building. The main façade elevation is oriented to the north, fronting Barton Road. The office entrance is located to the northeast side of the building highlighted by floor to ceiling gazed windows with a metal canopy (Attachment 2). The Applicant is proposing to a neutral-tone gray color scheme, “Snowbound” for the base color with accent areas in “March Wind”, “Gray Shingle”, “Gauntlet Gray”, “Iron Ore”, accent tile in “Porta Nouva Rovere”, and metal canopy at the east building entrance (Attachment 5). The proposed architecture, colors, and materials will be harmonious with the surrounding commercial and industrial uses. AGENCY REVIEW: The Project’s architectural plans were distributed to various departments for review and comment prior to this agenda report. Conditions of approval received from reviews by Building C.1 Packet Pg. 14 and Safety, Public Works, San Bernardino County Fire (Permit No: FPLN-2022-00215), Burrtec, and the City of Colton are included in the Project’s Conditions (Attachment 7). ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Pursuant to CEQA, an Initial Study was prepared to analyze potential significant environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the proposed Project. As required by State CEQA Guidelines Section 15063, the Initial Study determined a Mitigated Negative Declaration was required for the Project. Based on the Initial Study and supporting information, the City intends to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration. The Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration concluded the Project would have “no impact” or “less than a significant impact” in the areas of aesthetics, agriculture and forestry, air quality, energy, greenhouse gas emissions, hydrology and water quality, lands use and planning, mineral resources, population and housing, public services, recreation, wildfire, and the site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services. The Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration concluded the Project would have potential environmental impacts to biological resources, cultural resources, geology and soils, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, transportation, and tribal cultural resources. Adherence to the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program would reduce the potential environmental impacts to a less than significant level. The Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration Draft was circulated for a 30-day public review period from October 26, 2023, to December 5, 2023 [extended due to the November 23 holiday]. The Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration was made available for public review at City Hall and on the City’s website: <https://www.grandterrace- ca.gov/departments/planning_development_services>. The Notice of Intent to Adopt was noticed to properties within 1000-foot radius; posted in the local newspaper “Grand Terrace City News”; and filed with the San Bernardino County Clerk and the State Clearinghouse. The City received 11 written comment letters in response to the Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration. The Final Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration provides responses to comments and includes the Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program. The Final IS/MND was posted on the City’s website. The City noticed this public hearing to properties within 1000-foot radius and to commentors requesting to be added to the distribution list during the public review period. A Notice of Determination will be filed with the County Clerk and State Clearinghouse upon Project approval. PUBLIC NOTICE: C.1 Packet Pg. 15 The Public Hearing Notice for the Project was published in compliance with the City's Municipal Code and the City’s “Expanded Public Noticing and Outreach Policy for Public Hearings and Public Workshops.” The Public Hearing Notice was published at the Grand Terrace City News (1/4-page box advertisement), posted in three public places, including Grand Terrace News Paper, City Hall Lobby and Kiosk, and at the Project site located at 21801/21823 Barton Road. The Public Hearing Notice was mailed to property owners within 1000-feet of the site. CONCLUSION: The proposed assembly and light manufacturing building is consistent with the City’s General Plan land use designation and zoning district for the site. The construction of the building, including colors, materials, and proposed landscaping will complement and enhance both the site and surrounding area. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the attached Resolution 2024-01; approve the Project and the Conditions of Approval; and approve the Final Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. FINDINGS Environmental: 1. Finding: The Planning Commission/Site and Architectural Review Board hereby finds that pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15063, an Initial Study has been prepared for the Project by the City as the Lead Agency. Facts in Support of Finding: Based on the Initial Study and supporting analysis, a Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared. The Project will not have a significant effect on the environment due to the incorporation of conditions and mitigation measures to reduce or offset impacts to biological resources, cultural resources, geology and soils, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, transportation, and tribal cultural resources to less than significant levels. The Project is consistent with the applicable general plan land use designation and zoning map development standards. The approval of the Project would not result in environmental significant effects to aesthetics, agriculture and forestry, air quality, energy, greenhouse gas emissions, hydrology and water quality, lands use and planning, mineral resources, population and housing, public services, recreation, wildfire, and the site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services.

In addition, the Project is located more than 50 feet from existing residential uses. The Project meets the parking requirement of 240 parking spaces with 18 tuck dock doors. Approximately 175 people would be employed on site, with two shifts per day. There are no anticipated parking issues. In addition, the Project has been conditioned to have a maximum truck storage consistent with the number of loading dock doors totaling 18. The Project has been conditioned so no construction or modifications that increase the number of loading docks will be supported. In addition, the Project has been conditioned to undergo a Project review in the same manner as the original conditional use permit should the site be subleased to more than one tenant business. The parking will include lighting proposed to be shielded from reflecting in the public right-of-way and adjacent properties. The Project will have on-site cameras that will be operated 24/7. Due to the unidentified tenant, a Conditional Use Permit was required so the Planning Commission may periodically review this approval to ensure that is being operated in a manner consistent with the conditions of approval and in a manner which is not detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties in the vicinity pursuant to Section 18.83.032. Based on the items above stated, the proposed use will not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare of the persons residing or working within the neighborhood of the proposed Project or within the city. A.-2 Finding: The proposed use will not be injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood or within the city. Facts in Support of Finding: The Conditional Use Permit allows the City to impose C.1 Packet Pg. 17 conditions of approval to prevent impacts to the adjacent properties caused by operations activities. The Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration includes mitigation measures to prevent and/or minimize impacts related to biological resources, cultural resources, geology and soils, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, transportation, and tribal cultural resources. The Project has been conditioned to provide a security plan and operations plan to be reviewed and approved by San Bernardino County Sheriff’s and the Planning Director. The proposed use is consistent with the zoning designation and meets the design standards.

The project site is approximately 9.2 acres and is located in the western portion of the City of Grand Terrace (herein referenced as the “City”) at Assessor’s Parcel Numbers (APNs) 1167-121-02, 1167-121-03, 1167-121-04, 1167-121-07, a portion of 1167-121-08; and 1167-131- 011. Specifically, the project site is located at 21801 and 21823 Barton Road on the south side of Barton Road, between Terrace Avenue and La Crosse Avenue. Regional access to the project site is provided via I-215 and local access is provided via Barton Road, both of which are identified as major corridors in the City’s General Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The project site has a General Plan land use designation of Light Industrial. According to the General Plan Land Use Element, "permitted uses for properties designated as Light Industrial include those uses that can be made compatible with other surrounding uses within the City regarding noise, dust, odors, vibration, glare, air quality, traffic, aesthetics, and hazardous materials. Typical uses may include light manufacturing and assembly, small scale warehousing and distribution, research and development, and administrative and service types of uses.” The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan. The proposed project is the development of an assembly and light manufacturing building up to a maximum of 173,000 square feet. The maximum building height of the two-story building is proposed at approximately 44 feet in accordance with the development standards contained in the City’s Municipal Code Chapter 18.39, MR Restricted Manufacturing District. Site improvements include new parking, landscaping, trash enclosure area, lighting, security, 18 dock doors, perimeter wall and fencing, and street improvements along the north side of the site. The City of Grand Terrace has discretionary authority over the proposed project, which requires the following discretionary approvals: • Conditional Use Permit (CUP 22-02) • Lot Merger (LM 22-02) • Site and Architectural Review (SA 22-08) • Environmental (E 22-06) CEQA Compliance The Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) (State Clearinghouse No. 2023100788) was made available for public review and comment pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15073.

Where existing conditions change or fluctuate over time, and where necessary to provide the most accurate picture practically possible of the project's impacts, a lead agency may define existing conditions by referencing historic conditions, or conditions expected when the project becomes operational, or both, that are supported with substantial evidence. In addition, a lead agency may also use baselines consisting of both existing conditions and projected future conditions that are supported by reliable projections based on substantial evidence in the record. At the time of initiating the project’s environmental review process (March 2023), the environmental baseline the site was developed with three (3) industrial buildings consisting of the following businesses: Nu-Ray Metals (manufacturer and installer of metal siding and roofing materials), Houston & Harris PCS, Inc. (sewer mainline cleaning and video inspection company), and a former administrative building. As such, these buildings were reflected in the environmental analysis and described in the project description (Refer to Draft IS/MND Section 2.2, Environmental Setting). These three industrial buildings were approximately 12,950 square feet in size and located along the northeastern portion of the project site. By August 2023, these buildings have since been demolished for public health and safety reasons as deemed necessary by the City 1. However, the demolition of these buildings has been studied as part of the project’s environmental analysis. These baseline conditions were established at the beginning of the environmental review process in compliance with State CEQA Guidelines Section 15125(1)(a). The description of the environmental setting is intended to provide context for the reader to understand the impacts discussed, and for the significance conclusions that are provided within the CEQA compliance document (CEQA Portal Topic Paper, Baseline and Environmental Setting, https://ceqaportal.org/tp/Baseline%20and%20Environmental%20Setting%20Topic%20Paper%2008-23-16.pdf). 1 City Demolition Permits B00-004-879, B00-004-880, B00-004-881.

Please accept and consider these comments on behalf of Golden State Environmental Justice Alliance (GSEJA). Also, Golden State Environmental Justice Alliance formally requests to be added to the public interest list regarding any subsequent environmental documents, public notices, public hearings, and notices of determination for this project. Send all communications to Golden State Environmental Justice Alliance P.O. Box 79222 Corona, CA 92877. 1.0 Summary The project proposes the construction and operation of one approximately 170,152 square foot (sf) warehouse building on an approximately 9.2 acre site. The proposed building would be composed of approximately 115,026 square feet of warehouse space (referred to in the MND as “product storage area”), 50,326 square feet of assembly area, and 4,800 square feet of office space. The project includes 18 truck/trailer dock doors and 240 passenger car parking spaces. 2.0 Project Description The Project Description states that “The earthwork volumes are estimated at approximately 11,700 cubic yards of cut and 13,000 cubic yards of fill dirt, resulting in approximately 1,300 cubic yards of import soil.” There is no mechanism for public verification of this conclusion, such as a grading plan, included in the MND.

These grading truck hauling trips must be included for all sections of environmental analysis, including but not limited to the Air Quality, Energy, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, and Transportation analysis. The MND does not include a detailed site plan, floor plan, grading plan, or elevations for the proposed project. The basic components of a Planning Application include a site plan, floor plan, grading plan, elevations, and written narrative. The figure provided in Exhibit 2-3: Conceptual Site Plan has been edited for public review to remove any and all site-specific information. Providing a detailed site plan for public review is vital as it provides information such as the earthwork quantity notes, parking requirements, site coverage, floor area ratio, the notes block, etc. The elevation provided in Exhibit 2-4: Project Rendering does not provide any useful information, such as the building height or the colors/materials palette. The site plan and elevations provided are not useful for public review and do not satisfy CEQA’s requirements for meaningful disclosure and adequate informational documents (CEQA § 15121 and 21003(b)). Incorporation by reference (CEQA § 15150 (f)) is not appropriate as these documents contribute directly to analysis of the problem at hand. An EIR must be prepared to include all of these application items in their unedited and wholly complete form, and recirculated for public review. The project requires approval of the following discretionary applications in order to proceed: 1.Conditional Use Permit (CUP 22-02) 2.Lot Merger (LM 22-02) 3.Site and Architectural Review (SA 22-08) 4.Environmental (E 22-06) CEQA Compliance 4.3 Air Quality, 4.6 Energy, and 4.8 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Please refer to attachments from SWAPE for a complete technical commentary and analysis. The MND does not include for analysis relevant environmental justice issues in reviewing potential impacts, including cumulative impacts generated by the proposed project. This is especially significant as the surrounding community is highly burdened by pollution. According to CalEnviroScreen 4.01, CalEPA s screening tool that ranks each census tract in the state for pollution and socioeconomic vulnerability, the proposed project s census tract (6071007107) ranks worse than 87% of the rest of the state in overall pollution burden. The surrounding community, including sensitive receptors such as the residential neighborhood and manufactured residential community to the north, bears the impact of multiple sources of pollution and is more polluted 1 CalEnviroScreen 4.0 https://oehha.ca.gov/calenviroscreen/report/calenviroscreen-40 E-2 E-3 E-2 cont.

For example, the project census tract ranks in the 99th percentile for ozone burden, the 84th percentile for particulate matter (PM) 2.5 burden, 96th percentile for diesel PM burden, and 92nd percentile for traffic impacts. All of these environmental factors are attributed to heavy truck activity in the area. Ozone can cause lung irritation, inflammation, and worsening of existing chronic health conditions, even at low levels of exposure2. Exhaust fumes contain toxic chemicals that can damage DNA, cause cancer, make breathing difficult, and cause low weight and premature births3. The very small particles of diesel PM can reach deep into the lung, where they can contribute to a range of health problems. These include irritation to the eyes, throat and nose, heart and lung disease, and lung cancer 4. The census tract ranks in the 61st percentile for drinking water, which indicates that it ranks with the worst quality drinking water in the state. Poor communities areas are exposed to contaminants in their drinking water more often than people in other parts of the state5.The census tract ranks in the 70th percentile for solid waste facility impacts, which can expose people to hazardous chemicals, release toxic gases into the air (even after these facilites are closed), and chemicals can leach into soil around the facility and pose a health risk to nearby populations6. The census tract also bears more impacts from cleanup sites than 69% of the state. Chemicals in the buildings, soil, or water at cleanup sites can move into nearby communities through the air or movement of water7. The census tract also ranks in the 60th percentile for toxic releases. People living near facilities that emit toxic releases may breathe contaminated air regularly or if contaminants are released during an accident8. Further, the census tract is a diverse community including 60% Hispanic, 16% African-American, and 3% Asian-American residents, whom are especially vulnerable to the impacts of pollution. The community has a high rate of low educational attainment, meaning 75% of the census tract over age 25 has not attained a high school diploma, which is an indication that they may lack health insurance or access to medical care. The community has a high rate of poverty, meaning 88% of the households in the census tract have a total income before taxes that is less than the poverty level. Income can affect health when people cannot afford healthy living and 2 OEHHA Ozone https://oehha.ca.gov/calenviroscreen/indicator/air-quality-ozone 3 OEHHA Traffic https://oehha.ca.gov/calenviroscreen/indicator/traffic-density 4 OEHHA Diesel Particulate Matter https://oehha.ca.gov/calenviroscreen/indicator/diesel-particulate- matter 5 OEHHA Drinking Water https://oehha.ca.gov/calenviroscreen/drinking-water 6 OEHHA Solid Waste Facilities https://oehha.ca.gov/calenviroscreen/indicator/solid-waste-sites-and- facilities 7 OEHHA Cleanup Sites https://oehha.ca.gov/calenviroscreen/indicator/cleanup-sites 8 OEHHA Toxic Releases https://oehha.ca.gov/calenviroscreen/indicator/toxic-releases-facilities E-3 cont.

Poor communities are often located in areas with high levels of pollution10. Poverty can cause stress that weakens the immune system and causes people to become ill from pollution11. Living in poverty is also an indication that residents may lack health insurance or access to medical care. Medical care is vital for this census tract as it ranks in the 69th percentile for incidence of cardiovascular disease and 63rd percentile for incidence of asthma. The census tract also has a high rate of linguistic isolation, meaning 67% of households speak little to no English and face further inequities as a result. Additionally, the project’s census tract (6071007107) is identified as a SB 535 Disadvantaged Community12, which is not discussed or presented for analysis in the MND. Census tracts adjacent to the project site (6071007109 (east); 6071004004 (west); 6071007108 (north); 6071012500 (north); and 6065042300 (south)) are also identified as SB 535 Disadvantaged Communities. This indicates that cumulative impacts of development and negative environmental impacts in the City and surrounding area are disproportionately effecting these communities. The MND does not discuss that the project site and surrounding area are disadvantaged communities and does not utilize this information in its analysis. The negative environmental, health, and quality of life impacts of the warehousing and logistics industry in the City have become distinctly inequitable. The severity of impacts particularly on these Disadvantaged Communities must be included for analysis as part of an EIR. The State of California lists three approved compliance modeling softwares13 for non-residential buildings: CBECC-Com, EnergyPro, and IES VE. CalEEMod is not listed as an approved software. The CalEEMod modeling does not comply with the 2022 Building Energy Efficiency Standards and under-reports the project s significant Energy impacts and fuel consumption to the public and decision makers. Since the MND did not accurately or adequately model the energy impacts in compliance with Title 24, a finding of significance must be made. An EIR with modeling using one of the approved software types must be prepared and circulated for public review in order to adequately analyze the project s significant environmental impacts. This is vital as the MND utilizes CalEEMod as a source in its methodology and analysis, which is clearly not an approved software. 9 OEHHA Poverty https://oehha.ca.gov/calenviroscreen/indicator/poverty 10 Ibid. 11 Ibid. 12 OEHHA SB 535 Census Tracts https://oehha.ca.gov/calenviroscreen/sb535 13 California Energy Commission 2022 Energy Code Compliance Software https://www.energy.ca.gov/programs-and-topics/programs/building-energy-efficiency-standards/2022- building-energy-efficiency-1 E-3 E-4 cont.

The Project Description/Environmental Setting within the MND also notes that the project site is not fully operational, in stating that, “At the time of initiating the project s environmental baseline (March 2023), the site was developed with three (3) buildings consisting of the following businesses: Nu-Ray Metals (manufacturer and installer of metal siding and roofing materials), Houston & Harris PCS, Inc. (sewer mainline cleaning and video inspection company), and a former administrative building. These three (3) buildings were approximately 12,950 square feet in size and located along the northeastern portion of the project site. As of August 2023, these buildings have since been demolished for safety reasons.” The MND states clearly that the total 12,950 sf building area was not completely occupied as one of the three buildings is a former administrative building. Additionally, it is clear that the Environmental Setting provided is erroneous and misleading in order to artificially inflate “existing” emissions/VMT and credit the proposed project with associated reductions. By December 2022, former tenant Houston & Harris PCS filed with the Secretary of State that their principal business address had moved to San Bernardino, CA14. At minimum, this demonstrates that the arbitrary Environmental Setting date of March 2023 within the MND is inaccurate. The existing conditions of the site in March 2023 likely generated significantly lower VMT and significantly lower vehicle trips due to the existing vacant site conditions. Further, CEQA Guidelines Section 15125(a)(1) states that, “Where existing conditions change or fluctuate over time, and where necessary to provide the most accurate picture practically possible of the project s impacts, a lead agency may define existing conditions by referencing historic conditions, or conditions expected when the project becomes operational, or both, that are supported with substantial evidence,” and CEQA Guidelines Section 15125(a)(3) states that, “An existing conditions baseline shall not include hypothetical conditions, such as those that might be allowed, but have never actually occurred, under existing permits or plans, as the baseline.” The MND and its appendices model the existing site as fully operational utilizing default rates/average rates. The physical conditions and actual emissions/vehicle traffic counts that existed at the time of analysis are not described or discussed with meaningful supporting evidence in the MND. Utilizing emissions default rates/average rates instead of actual traffic counts and emissions 14 Houston & Harris PCS Statement of Information December 2022 https://bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov/api/report/GetImageByNum/250216187047222091138044195074202115114236096 029 E-5 E-6 C.1.a Packet Pg. 41 At t a c h m e n t : F i n a l I S .

The MND has not provided meaningful, substantial evidence to support the claim that the previous on-site uses were operational at the time environmental analysis commenced. Information provided in the Phase 1 ESA demonstrates that all buildings at the project site were vacant in May 2023, including interior photos of the empty remaining buildings, dumpsters and onsite debris from recently demolished buildings, and the concrete pad remnants of those former buildings. Additionally, the Phase 1 ESA includes statements that the buildings are vacant. It is clear that this is an effort to artificially reduce the GHG Emissions generated by the proposed project to less than significant levels. Removing the “existing uses” emissions credits (873 MTC02e) indicates that the project will generate 3,616 MTC02e annually, which exceeds the 3,000 MTC02e annual threshold. An EIR must be prepared to remove the “existing uses” emissions credits and include a finding of significance because the proposed project exceeds the applicable threshold. Table 13: Consistency with the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS provides a misleading and erroneous consistency analysis with SCAG’s 2020-2045 Connect SoCal RTP/SCS that concludes the project does not conflict with any Connect SoCal Goals. Due to errors in modeling (and improper emissions reductions credits to onsite uses that did not actually exist and substantial evidence to support those claims were not provided) as noted throughout this comment letter and attachments, the proposed project has signifiant potential for inconsistency with Goal 5 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality, Goal 6 to support healthy and equitable communities, and Goal 7 to adapt to a changing climate. An EIR must be prepared to include revised, accurate modeling and a consistency analysis with all goals of SCAG’s 2020-2045 Connect SoCal RTP/SCS. 4.11 Land Use and Planning The MND does not provide any information regarding the buildout conditions of the City’s General Plan. Table 2.5: Nonresidential Buildout Estimates of the General Plan notes that the Light Industrial designation supports the development of 1,398,276 sf of building space through the document’s 2025 horizon year15. The project’s proposed 170,152 sf of building space is 12.2% of the total Light Industrial space permitted over the 15 year General Plan period, which represents 15 General Plan EIR https://cdnsm5- hosted.civiclive.com/UserFiles/Servers/Server_12337255/File/Departments/Planning%20&%20Development/Planni ng/draft_eir.pdf E-6 E-7 cont.

An EIR must be prepared to provide a cumulative analysis discussion of projects approved since General Plan adoption and projects in the pipeline” to determine if the project will exceed SCAG s and/or the City s General Plan growth estimates for the City. The project site has a General Plan land use designation of Light Industrial. The Light Industrial designation permits “small scale warehouse and distribution.” The MND attempts to characterize the project as an Assembly and Light Manufacturing project to demonstrate compliance with the General Plan Light Industrial land use designation. However, the project does not provide any manufacturing area. Assembly is the assemblage of finished parts into a product for consumption. The project name of “Assembly and Light Manufacturing” is misleading as the proposed building is clearly designed to function primarily as a distribution center/warehouse building. Table 1: Project Characteristics of the MND attempts to support the facade that the project as an assembly/light manufacturing use by characterizing the primary warehouse area as “product storage.” Even if it is true that 50,326 square feet of the building will be utilized as assembly area, this is only 29.5% of the 170,152 total square foot building area utilized for this function. The “product storage” (warehouse/distribution) area is 115,026 square feet and comprises 67.6% of the 170,152 total square foot building area. Therefore, warehousing/distribution is the primary use of the building and does not comply with the Light Industrial land use designation of the General Plan. A General Plan Amendment is required to allow primarily warehousing/distribution uses within the Light Industrial designation and an EIR must be prepared to include this information for analysis. The MND does not provide a consistency analysis with all land use plans, policies, or regulations adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect. The project has significant potential to conflict with many of these items, including but not limited to the following from the General Plan: 1.Circulation Element Goal 3.1 Provide a comprehensive transportation system that provides for the current and long-term efficient movement of people and goods within and through the City. 2.Circulation Element Policy 3.1.1: Provide a transportation system which supports planned land uses and improves the quality of life. 3.Circulation Element Policy 3.1.7: The maximum acceptable Level of Service for streets identified in the City Master Plan of Streets and Highways during peak hours shall be LOS D”. 4.Circulation Element Goal 3.3: Provide for a safe circulation system. 5.Circulation Element Policy 3.3.1: Promote the safe and effective movement of all segments of the population and the efficient transport of goods.

There are no methods for the public to verify that the project would only generate approximately 175 new employees. The MND utilizes uncertain and misleading language which does not provide any meaningful analysis or calculation of the project s population and employment (construction and operational) generation. In order to comply with CEQA s requirements for meaningful disclosure, an EIR must be prepared to provide an accurate estimate of employees generated by all uses of the proposed project. It must also provide demographic and geographic information on the location of qualified workers to fill these positions as the the MND also has not provided meaningful evidence that the local population is qualified for or interested in work in the industrial sector. A construction worker employment analysis must also be included to adequately and accurately analyze all potentially significant environmental impacts. Additionally, any information from the project applicant utilized to generate the employment estimates must be provided in an EIR. Incorporation by reference (CEQA § 15150 (f)) is not appropriate as the information from the project applicant contributes directly to analysis of the problem at hand. An EIR must be prepared to include the information from the project applicant and the source of the MND’s calculation of approximately 175 new employees. The MND does not provide any information regarding the buildout conditions of the City’s General Plan. Table 2.5: Nonresidential Buildout Estimates of the General Plan notes that buildout of the Light Industrial designation will generate 1,398 new employees. Utilizing the MND’s calculation of 175 employees, the proposed project accounts for 12.5% of the total employees generated by the buildout of the Light Industrial land use designation. A single project accounting for this amount of the projected employment growth over 15 years represents a significant amount of growth. There is also no analysis of projects approved, proposed, or in the pipeline” within the City to demonstrate that the combined workforce and population of all projects does not exceed the growth estimates of the City’s General Plan or SCAG’s RTP/SCS.

Utilizing the MND's calculation of 175 employees, the project represents 6.7% of the City’s employment growth from 2016 - 2045. A single project accounting for this amount of the projected employment and/or population over 29 years represents a significant amount of growth. An EIR must be prepared to include this analysis, and also provide a cumulative analysis discussion of projects approved since 2016 and projects “in the pipeline” to determine if the project will exceed employment growth forecasts from SCAG and/or the General Plan. Additionally, an EIR must provide demographic and geographic information on the location of qualified workers to fill these positions in order to provide an accurate environmental analysis. 4.17 Transportation Table 1: 21801 Barton Road Trip Generation within Appendix L: Trip Generation and VMT Analysis provide trip generation reduction credits for “existing uses.” It is not appropriate to model the existing vacant site as fully operational utilizing ITE default rates/average rates and provide VMT and emission reduction credits based on “existing uses” that do not actually exist and does not provide the most accurate picture practically possible of the project s impacts pursuant to CEQA Section 15125. The Project Description/Environmental Setting within the MND also notes that the project site is not fully operational, in stating that, “At the time of initiating the project s environmental baseline (March 2023), the site was developed with three (3) buildings consisting of the following businesses: Nu-Ray Metals (manufacturer and installer of metal siding and roofing materials), Houston & Harris PCS, Inc. (sewer mainline cleaning and video inspection company), and a former administrative building. These three (3) buildings were approximately 12,950 square feet in size and located along the northeastern portion of the project site. As of August 2023, these buildings have since been demolished for safety reasons.” The MND states clearly that the total 12,950 sf building area was not completely occupied as one of the three buildings is a former administrative building. Additionally, it is clear that the Environmental Setting provided is erroneous and misleading in order to artificially inflate “existing” emissions/VMT and credit the proposed project with associated reductions. By December 2022, former tenant Houston & Harris PCS filed with the Secretary of State that their principal business address had moved to San Bernardino, CA17. At minimum, this demonstrates that the arbitrary Environmental Setting date of March 2023 within 16 SCAG Connect SoCal Demographics and Growth Forecast adopted September 3, 2020 https://scag.ca.gov/sites/main/files/file-attachments/0903fconnectsocal_demographics-and-growth- forecast.pdf?1606001579 17 Houston & Harris PCS Statement of Information December 2022 https://bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov/api/report/GetImageByNum/250216187047222091138044195074202115114236096 029 E-10 E-11 cont.

The existing conditions of the site in March 2023 likely generated significantly lower VMT and significantly lower vehicle trips due to the existing vacant site conditions. Further, CEQA Guidelines Section 15125(a)(1) states that, “Where existing conditions change or fluctuate over time, and where necessary to provide the most accurate picture practically possible of the project s impacts, a lead agency may define existing conditions by referencing historic conditions, or conditions expected when the project becomes operational, or both, that are supported with substantial evidence,” and CEQA Guidelines Section 15125(a)(3) states that, “An existing conditions baseline shall not include hypothetical conditions, such as those that might be allowed, but have never actually occurred, under existing permits or plans, as the baseline.” The MND and its appendices model the existing site as fully operational utilizing ITE default rates/average rates. The physical conditions and actual vehicle traffic counts that existed at the time of analysis are not described or discussed with meaningful supporting evidence in the MND. Utilizing ITE default rates/average rates instead of traffic counts at the project site during business operations serves to artificially reduce the project’s significant environmental impacts by modeling the alleged businesses onsite as more traffic intensive than they actually were. The MND has not provided meaningful, substantial evidence to support the claim that the previous on-site uses were operational at the time environmental analysis commenced. Information provided in the Phase 1 ESA demonstrates that all buildings at the project site were vacant in May 2023, including interior photos of the empty remaining buildings, dumpsters and onsite debris from recently demolished buildings, and the concrete pad remnants of those former buildings. Additionally, the Phase 1 ESA includes statements that the buildings are vacant. It is clear that this is an effort to artificially appease the City’s Traffic Impact Analysis Guidelines18. The Guidelines state that a, “TIA which includes LOS analysis shall be required for a proposed project that meets any of the following criteria: Projects that will add 51 or more trips during either the AM or PM peak hours to any intersection.” Table 1: 21801 Barton Road Trip Generation within Appendix L: Trip Generation and VMT Analysis shows that the project will generate 654 total PCE daily vehicle trips, including 82 PCE trips during the AM peak hour and 87 PCE trips during the PM peak hour. Table 1 credits the proposed project trip reductions for the buildings located on the project site utilizing ITE default trip rates, including 181 total PCE daily vehicle trips, 32 PCE trips during the AM peak hour and 38 PCE trips during the PM peak hour. After the credits, the proposed project generates 473 total 18 Grand Terrace Traffic Impact Analysis Guidelines https://grandterracecityca.iqm2.com/Citizens/FileOpen.aspx?Type=1&ID=1618&Inline=True E-12 E-11 cont.

The AM/PM PCE peak hour trips are conveniently 1 and 2 fewer PCE trips than the 51 PCE peak hour trips threshold. The MND concludes the project will have less than significant impacts due to the trip reduction credits. However, the City’s Traffic Impact Analysis Guidelines do not permit or contemplate the possibility of trip reduction credits based on existing uses in such analysis. It is therefore even more egregious that the MND improperly utilized trip reduction credits as this is not permitted by the City’s Guidelines. Removing the “existing uses” trip generation credits indicates that the project will generate 82 PCE trips during the AM peak hour and 87 PCE trips during the PM peak hour. Therefore, a TIA and LOS analysis are required and must be included as part of a project EIR. The MND has not analyzed the project in accordance with the City Guidelines and utilizes an artificially low “net new trips” generated by the project in order to exempt itself from conducting a project-specific LOS/VMT analysis. The project trip generation must be revised to remove any credit given for the existing buildings in order to accurately and adequately analyze the project’s trip generation in accordance with the City’s Guidelines and the City’s General Plan LOS requirements. Further, the MND has not provided meaningful evidence to support the conclusion that Mitigation Measure T-1 will reduce project generated VMT to below the significance threshold of 28.0 VMT per employee continuously for the life of the project. Since future building tenants are unknown at this time, implementation of trip reduction measures cannot be guaranteed to reduce Project generated VMT to a level of less than significant. It is not possible for the City to ensure that Mitigation Measure T-1 will result in reduced VMT by project employees and be implemented continuously, at all times, throughout the life of the project and maintain a VMT reduction to less than significant levels at all times. The efficacy of the proposed mitigation measures and reduction of VMT impacts below the applicable thresholds cannot be assured and the project’s VMT impact is therefore considered significant and unavoidable. An EIR must be prepared to include a finding of significance because there is no possible assurance of the percentage of project employees that would utilize non-automobile travel associated with the mitigation measures and mitigation of the project’s VMT impact to less than significant is not feasible. Further, the MND has underreported the quantity VMT generated by the proposed project operations. The operational nature of industrial/warehouse uses involves high rates of truck/trailer/delivery van VMT due to traveling from large import hubs to regional distribution centers to smaller industrial parks and then to their final delivery destinations. Once employees arrive at work at the proposed project, they will conduct their jobs by driving delivery vans across the region as part of the daily operations as a distribution facility, which will drastically increase E-13 E-12 cont.

The project’s truck/trailer and delivery van activity is unable to utilize public transit or active transportation and it is misleading to the public and decision makers to exclude this activity from VMT analysis. The project’s total operational VMT generated is not consistent with the significance threshold and legislative intent of SB 743 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing VMT. An EIR must be prepared to reflect a quantified VMT analysis that includes all truck/trailer and delivery van activity. The MND has not adequately analyzed the project’s potential to substantially increase hazards due to a geometric design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses; or the project’s potential to result in inadequate emergency access. There are no exhibits adequately depicting the onsite turning radius available for trucks maneuvering throughout the site or the maneuvering area available at the intersection of the project driveway and adjacent street. Notably, passenger car parking stalls are located within the truck/trailer loading dock court on the west building. These parking stalls may be in use at any time and further restrict truck/trailer movement on the site and present a safety hazard with potential for conflicts between passenger cars and trucks/trailers. Additionally, the project site has a single driveway access point along Barton Road that will be utilized for access by both truck/trailers and passenger cars. The overall site design presents several potential conflicts in maneuvering area for both passenger cars and trucks/trailers that have not been analyzed. The MND also states that, “The project is subject to discretionary review by the Public Works Director and City Traffic Engineer to determine whether the development provides adequate on- site and off-site roadway improvements for the safety of motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists. A Circulation Site Plan has been developed for the project to ensure safe access to and from the development and to provide recommended roadway and/or traffic signal improvements to the satisfaction of City Traffic Engineer recommendations.” However, the City’s determination/review of the project is not included for public review, and neither is the Circulation Site Plan. There are no exhibits depicting the available space onsite throughout the project site to accommodate heavy truck maneuvering. There are also no exhibits depicting emergency vehicle access. This does not comply with CEQA’s requirements for adequate informational documents and meaningful disclosure (CEQA § 15121 and 21003(b)). Incorporation by reference (CEQA § 15150 (f)) is not appropriate as the City’s determination/review of the project and the Circulation Site Plan contribute directly to analysis of the problem at hand. Deferring this environmental analysis required by CEQA to the construction permitting phase is improper mitigation and does not comply with CEQA’s requirement for meaningful disclosure and adequate informational documents. An EIR must be prepared to include the City’s determination/review of the project and the Circulation Site Plan for review, analysis, and comment by the public and decision makers in order to provide an adequate and accurate environmental analysis.

For example, SCAG’s Connect SoCal Demographics and Growth Forecast19 notes that the City will add 2,600 jobs between 2016 - 2045. Utilizing the MND’s calculation of 175 employees, the project represents 6.7% of the City s employment growth from 2016 - 2045. A single project accounting for this amount of the projected employment and/or population over 29 years represents a significant amount of growth. This total increases exponentially when commercial development activity and other industrial projects are added to the calculation. Further, Table 2.5: Nonresidential Buildout Estimates of the General Plan notes that buildout of the Light Industrial designation will generate 1,398 new employees. Utilizing the MND’s calculation of 175 employees, the proposed project accounts for 12.5% of the total employees generated by the buildout of the Light Industrial land use designation. A single project accounting for this amount of the projected employment growth over 15 years represents a significant amount of growth. An EIR must be prepared to include this information for analysis and also include a cumulative development analysis of projects approved since 2016 and projects “in the pipeline” to determine if the proposed project exceeds SCAG’s growth forecasts and projects approved since General Plan adoption and projects “in the pipeline” to determine if the proposed project exceeds General Plan growth estimates for cumulative analysis. Conclusion For the foregoing reasons, GSEJA believes the MND is flawed and an EIR must be prepared for the proposed project and circulated for public review.

This comment is submitted by Blu, Collins & Ho LLP on behalf of the Golden State Environmental Justice Alliance (GSEJA). This comment requests GSEJA to be added to the project’s distribution list. The comment is acknowledged. Since this comment does not identify a specific concern with the adequacy of the Draft IS/MND or raise an issue or comment specifically related to the Draft IS/MND’s environmental analysis under CEQA, no further response is warranted. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15088(a) requires that a lead agency only evaluate and respond to comments raised on environmental issues.) As requested, both entities have been added to the project’s distribution list. During the public review period, a supplemental comment letter was received from Blum, Collins & Ho LLP; refer to Comment Letter G. Response E-2 This comment notes that the Draft IS/MND does not contain a detailed site plan, floor plan, grading plan, or elevations for the proposed project. This comment is acknowledged. The Draft IS/MND provides several graphic depictions which demonstrate the proposed project description including Exhibit 2-3, Conceptual Site Plan and Exhibit 2-4, Project Rendering. Further, the preliminary grading plan, detailed site plan, floor plan, elevations, and landscape plan for the proposed project are on-file with the City. The Draft IS/MND is consistent with State CEQA Guidelines Section 15063(d) which outlines the required contents of an Initial Study. Response E-3 This comment notes the presence of sensitive receptors in the community surrounding the project site. This comment notes the surrounding disadvantaged community and requests an EIR be prepared to fully analyze impacts to the community. This comment is acknowledged. It should be noted that neither the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) nor the City of Grand Terrace have established thresholds and regulations specifically for disadvantaged communities. The air quality and greenhouse gas (GHG) thresholds were established to protect the general population, taking into consideration the most vulnerable people. Further, the SCAQMD and the State CEQA Guidelines Appendix G Checklist utilized by the City do not require discussion or analysis on disadvantaged communities. Therefore, it is not necessary to discuss or analyze disadvantaged communities in the IS/MND, and an EIR is also not necessary in this regard. Response E-4 This comment notes that CalEEMod modeling does not comply with the 2022 Building Energy Efficiency Standards and requests an EIR to be prepared. California’s Building Energy Code Compliance Software (CBECC) is for Building Energy Efficiency Standards compliance modeling and is not suitable for CEQA compliance analysis. CalEEMod is the most appropriate modeling tool to estimate the project’s energy consumption for CEQA compliance purposes. As such, the Draft IS/MND adequately discloses the potential impacts of the project in this regard. Response E-5 This comment notes that the Draft IS/MND does not accurately convey baseline conditions of the project site. This comment is acknowledged. Refer to Master Response 1. The existing condition of the project is correctly identified in the Draft IS/MND. CEQA Guidelines require evaluating project impacts by comparing with existing conditions, and therefore taking emission reduction credits from the existing uses on-site is appropriate.

This comment is acknowledged. The project is consistent with the City’s General Plan. Refer to Section 4.6, Energy, Table 10, General Plan Project Consistency Analysis, of the Draft IS/MND, which outlines how the project is consistent with relevant goals and policies of the General Plan. Response E-8 This comment notes that the proposed project is not compliant with the City’s General Plan designation of Light Industrial. This comment is acknowledged. The City’s General Plan defines Light Industrial is as “Permitted uses for properties designated as Light Industrial include those uses that can be made compatible with other surrounding uses within the City regarding noise, dust, odors, vibration, glare, air quality, traffic, aesthetics, and hazardous materials. Typical uses may include light manufacturing and assembly, small scale warehousing and distribution, research and development, and administrative and service types of uses.” Thus, warehousing and distribution is a compatible use, and the project is consistent with the land use designation of the General Plan. Response E-9 This comment notes that the Draft IS/MND does not provide a consistency analysis with circulation goals of the City’s General Plan. This comment is acknowledged. As stated in the Draft IS/MND,” The project does not propose permanent alterations to vehicular circulation routes or obstruct public access along adjacent roadways”. Additionally, Draft IS/MND Section 4.17, Transportation, analyzes whether the project would “conflict with a program plan, ordinance, or policy addressing the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle, and pedestrian facilities”. The traffic analysis found that impacts would be less than significant. Response E-10 This comment notes that the projected number of employees for the proposed project (approximately 175) accounts for significant growth. This comment is acknowledged. The Draft IS/MND identified the increase in employees as minimal in comparison to the increase anticipated in the SCAG Growth Forecast. Response E-11 This comment notes that the Draft IS/MND does not accurately convey baseline conditions of the project site. This comment is acknowledged. Refer to Master Response 1.

The Project proposes to construct a 171,300-square-foot (“SF”) manufacturing building and 240 vehicle parking spaces on the 9.2-acre site. Our review concludes that the IS/MND fails to adequately evaluate the air quality and health risk impacts. As a result, emissions and health risk impacts associated with construction and operation of the proposed Project may be underestimated and inadequately addressed. An Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”) should be prepared to adequately assess and mitigate the potential air quality and health risk impacts that the project may have on the environment. Air Quality Failure to Provide CalEEMod Output Files The IS/MND relies on the California Emissions Estimator Model (“CalEEMod”) to estimate the Project’s construction and operational criteria air pollutant emissions, stating: “The following assumptions were used in the analysis of the proposed project’s construction- related air emissions impacts: [...] •Construction equipment inventory was derived from the CalEEMod model equipment inventory…” (p. 33). G-1 G-2 C.1.a Packet Pg. 57 At t a c h m e n t : F i n a l I S . M N D _ H i n e s A s s e m b l y B l d g P r o j e c t _ F e b r u a r y 2 0 2 4 ( C o n d i t i o n a l U s e P e r m i t 2 2 - 0 2 , S i t e a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w 2 2 - 0 8 , L o t 2 Specifically, the IS/MND states that “Project-Generated Construction Emissions, presents the anticipated daily short-term construction emissions; refer to Appendix F, AQ, GHG, and Energy Analysis, for the CalEEMod outputs and results” (p. 34). Furthermore, the IS/MND relies on the CalEEMod to estimate the Project’s operational air pollutant emissions, stating: “The area source and energy source operational emissions for the project and the Existing Land Use were derived from the default estimates produced by the CalEEMod model” (IS/MND, pp. 37). However, review of Appendix F, demonstrates that the while the inputs used for the CalEEMod models are provided, the output files which disclose the Project’s emissions are not provided.1 As the IS/MND fails to disclose the CalEEMod output files used to estimate the Project’s construction and operational emissions, we cannot verify that the IS/MND’s air modeling and subsequent analysis are accurate. We recommend that the Project not be approved until a complete air quality analysis, including the associated air modeling, is prepared and disclosed. SWAPE Analysis Indicates a Potentially Significant Air Quality Impact In an effort to quantitatively estimate the Project’s construction-related emissions, we utilized the CalEEMod Version 2020.4.0,2 as well as Project-specific information provided by the IS/MND and associated documents. CalEEMod provides recommended default values based on site-specific information, such as land use type, meteorological data, total lot acreage, project type and typical equipment associated with project type. In our model, we included 165,352-SF of “General Heavy Industrial,” 4,800-SF of “General Office Building” land use, and 240 parking spaces (p. 9, Table 1).3 We also assumed that the Project would be located within Climate Zone 10 4 and the Project’s utilities would be provided by Southern California Edison (p. 48). Additionally, we included the following assumptions listed in the IS/MND: •“Construction would commence in Spring 2024 for a duration of approximately 15 months; •Grading activity would involve the import of 7,000 cubic yards of soil; •Fugitive dust mitigation was applied as per SCAQMD Rule 403 – Fugitive Dust (2 times watering per day), limiting vehicle speed on unpaved surfaces to 15 miles per hour, and soil moisture maintained at 12 percent); • Construction equipment inventory was derived from the CalEEMod model equipment inventory; and 1 Best presented as PDFs to allow for visibility of the changes to default values and the associated emissions estimates. 2 “CalEEMod Version 2020.4.0.” California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA), March 2022, available at: http://www.aqmd.gov/caleemod/download-model. 3 115,026-SF Product Storage Area + 50,326-SF Assembly Area = 165,352-SF General Heavy Industrial 4 “Appendix F – Climate Zones Lookup.” CAPCOA, September 2016, available at: http://www.aqmd.gov/caleemod/user's-guide, pp. 15.

All other values were left as default. Our analysis estimates that the reactive organic gases (“ROG”) emissions associated with Project construction and operation exceed the applicable South Coast Air Quality Management District (“SCAQMD”) threshold of 75-lbs/day, as referenced by the IS/MND (p. 34, Table 2) (see table below).5 SWAPE Criteria Air Pollutant Emissions Construction ROG (lbs/day) SWAPE 80.4 SCAQMD Threshold 75 Exceeds? Yes As demonstrated in the table above, the Project’s construction-related ROG emissions, as estimated by SWAPE, exceed the applicable SCAQMD significance threshold. Our modeling demonstrates that the Project would result in a potentially significant air quality impact that was not previously identified or addressed by the IS/MND. As a result, an EIR should be prepared to adequately assess and mitigate the potential air quality impacts that the Project may have on the environment. Diesel Particulate Matter Emissions Inadequately Evaluated The IS/MND concludes that the proposed Project would result in a less-than-significant health risk impact based on a quantified construction and mobile-source operational health risk assessment (“HRA”). Specifically, the IS/MND estimates that the maximum incremental cancer risk posed to nearby, existing residential sensitive receptors associated with exposure to diesel particulate matter (“DPM”) emissions during Project construction and operation would be 1.1 in one million, which would not exceed the SCAQMD significance threshold of 10 in one million (see excerpt below) (p. 38, Table 6). 5 “South Coast AQMD Air Quality Significance Thresholds.” SCAQMD, March 2023, available at: https://www.aqmd.gov/docs/default-source/ceqa/handbook/south-coast-aqmd-air-quality-significance- thresholds.pdf?sfvrsn=25.

First, the IS/MND’s construction HRA is incorrect, as it relies upon emissions estimates from an unsubstantiated air model, as discussed above in section of this letter titled “SWAPE Analysis Indicates a Potentially Significant Air Quality Impact.” As a result, the HRA may rely on an underestimated DPM concentration to calculate the health risk associated with Project construction. As such, the IS/MND’s construction HRA and the resulting cancer risk should not be relied upon to determine Project significance. Second, the IS/MND fails to mention the exposure assumptions for the construction-related and operational HRAs, such as age sensitivity factors (“ASF”) or fraction of time at home (“FAH”) values whatsoever. Until the IS/MND substantiates the use of correct exposure assumptions, the HRAs may underestimate the cancer risk posed to nearby, existing sensitive receptors due to Project construction and operation. Furthermore, according to the Risk Assessment Guidelines provided by the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (“OEHHA”), the organization responsible for providing G-4 cont.

As such, we cannot verify that the IS/MND’s HRA is accurate, and the Project’s cancer risks may be underestimated. Mitigation Feasible Mitigation Measures Available to Reduce Emissions Our analysis demonstrates that the Project would result in potentially significant air quality, health risk, and GHG impacts that should be mitigated further. In an effort to reduce emissions, the Project should consider the implementation of the following mitigation measures found in the California Department of Justice Warehouse Project Best Practices document.7 •Requiring off-road construction equipment to be hybrid electric-diesel or zero emission, where available, and all diesel-fueled off-road construction equipment to be equipped with CARB Tier IV-compliant engines or better, and including this requirement in applicable bid documents, purchase orders, and contracts, with successful contractors demonstrating the ability to supply the compliant construction equipment for use prior to any ground-disturbing and construction activities. •Prohibiting off-road diesel-powered equipment from being in the “on” position for more than 10 hours per day. •Using electric-powered hand tools, forklifts, and pressure washers, and providing electrical hook ups to the power grid rather than use of diesel-fueled generators to supply their power. •Designating an area in the construction site where electric-powered construction vehicles and equipment can charge. 6 “Risk Assessment Guidelines Guidance Manual for Preparation of Health Risk Assessments.” OEHHA, February 2015, available at: https://oehha.ca.gov/media/downloads/crnr/2015guidancemanual.pdf, p. 8-7, Equation 8.2.4. 7 “Warehouse Projects: Best Practices and Mitigation Measures to Comply with the California Environmental Quality Act.” State of California Department of Justice, September 2022, available at: https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/media/warehouse-best-practices.pdf, p. 8 – 10.

While air monitoring does not mitigate the air quality or greenhouse gas impacts of a facility, it nonetheless benefits the affected community by providing information that can be used to improve air quality or avoid exposure to unhealthy air. •Requiring all stand-by emergency generators to be powered by a non-diesel fuel. •Requiring facility operators to train managers and employees on efficient scheduling and load management to eliminate unnecessary queuing and idling of trucks. •Requiring operators to establish and promote a rideshare program that discourages single- occupancy vehicle trips and provides financial incentives for alternate modes of transportation, including carpooling, public transit, and biking. •Meeting CalGreen Tier 2 green building standards, including all provisions related to designated parking for clean air vehicles, electric vehicle charging, and bicycle parking. •Designing to LEED green building certification standards. •Providing meal options onsite or shuttles between the facility and nearby meal destinations. •Posting signs at every truck exit driveway providing directional information to the truck route. •Improving and maintaining vegetation and tree canopy for residents in and around the project area. •Requiring that every tenant train its staff in charge of keeping vehicle records in diesel technologies and compliance with CARB regulations, by attending CARB-approved courses. Also require facility operators to maintain records on-site demonstrating compliance and make records available for inspection by the local jurisdiction, air district, and state upon request. •Requiring tenants to enroll in the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s SmartWay program, and requiring tenants who own, operate, or hire trucking carriers with more than 100 trucks to use carriers that are SmartWay carriers. •Providing tenants with information on incentive programs, such as the Carl Moyer Program and Voucher Incentive Program, to upgrade their fleets. These measures offer a cost-effective, feasible way to incorporate lower-emitting design features into the proposed Project, which subsequently, reduce emissions released during Project construction and operation.

Until the feasibility of incorporating on-site renewable energy production is considered, the Project should not be approved. An EIR should be prepared to include all feasible mitigation measures, as well as include updated air quality, health risk, and GHG analyses to ensure that the necessary mitigation measures are implemented to reduce emissions to below thresholds. The EIR should also demonstrate a commitment to the implementation of these measures prior to Project approval, to ensure that the Project’s significant emissions are reduced to the maximum extent possible.

This supplemental comment letter provided by Blum, Collins & Ho LLP includes comments from Soil/Water/Air Protection Enterprise related to air quality and health risks impacts, associated modeling files, and resumes. This comment notes air quality and health risk impacts have not been adequately addressed and requests the preparation of an EIR. This comment is acknowledged. Refer to Responses G-2 through G-5. Response G-2 This comment notes that CalEEMod output files were not provided. The complete CalEEMod output files for construction and operation of the project are provided in Appendix F, CalEEMod Emission Summary (Data Attachment starting from Page 34 of Appendix F), of the Draft IS/MND. Response G-3 The commenter conducted a CalEEMod model run for the project and found reactive organic gases (ROG) emissions exceeding SCAQMD threshold during project construction, and therefore claimed the project would cause significant air quality impacts. This comment is acknowledged. The CalEEMod modeling conducted by the commenter is flawed because an old CalEEMod version of 2020.4.0 was used. CalEEMod was updated to Version 2022.1 in December 2022, which incorporated updated default values based on the latest information available. Specifically, CalEEMod Version 2020.4.0 assumed higher architectural coating areas per square foot of building area than CalEEMod Version 2022.1, resulting in higher ROG emissions during the architectural coating phase. Based on the CalEEMod modeling conducted for the project using Version 2022.1, maximum daily ROG emissions during construction would be 68.2 pounds per day, which would not exceed SCAQMD threshold of 75 pounds per day; refer to Appendix F of the Draft IS/MND. Therefore, project construction would not cause significant air quality impact, and the analysis in the Draft IS/MND is accurate and adequate. Response G-4 This comment notes the Draft IS/MND’s health risk assessment is incorrect. The health risk assessment in the Draft IS/MND relies on emissions calculated from accurate CalEEMod models, as included in Appendix F, CalEEMod Emission Summary, of the Draft IS/MND; refer to Response G-2. Furthermore, the Draft IS/MND includes detailed exposure assumptions used to calculate cancer risks; refer to Appendix G, Health Risk Assessment, Page 9 through Page 11, of the Draft IS/MND. The exposure assumptions are conservative and consistent with SCAQMD requirements. Therefore, the health risk assessment analysis in the Draft IS/MND is accurate. Response G-5 The commenter recommends mitigation measures to be incorporated into the project to mitigate the significant air quality and health risk impacts. This comment is acknowledged. However, as discussed in Response G-2 through G- 4 above, the project’s air quality and health risk impact analysis is deemed adequate, and would not result in significant air quality or health risk impacts, and therefore mitigation measures are not necessary or required. The project is required to comply with 2022 Title 24 standards, which include requirements on solar panels. Therefore, mitigation measures are not necessary for the project.

After reviewing the Project and the IS/MND and its accompanying documents, SAFER concludes that there is a fair argument that the Project may have significant environmental impacts that have not been mitigated, rendering the MND inadequate under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), Public Resources Code section 21000, et seq. Accordingly, an environmental impact report (“EIR”) is required. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Project would include the development and operation of a 173,000-square foot assembly and light manufacturing building and associated site improvements on approximately 9.2 acres of land at 21801 and 21823 Barton Road. The two-story building would be approximately 44-feet in height and would include 18 truck dock doors. As of March 2023, three buildings occupied the Project site, but were demolished in August 2023. Residences are located northeast of the Project site. LEGAL STANDARD As the California Supreme Court has held “[i]f no EIR has been prepared for a nonexempt project, but substantial evidence in the record supports a fair argument that the project may result in significant adverse impacts, the proper remedy is to order preparation of an EIR.” (Communities for a Better Env’t v.

Res. Code § 21068; see also 14 CCR § 15382.) The EIR is the very heart of CEQA. Bakersfield Citizens for Local Control v. City of Bakersfield (2004) 124 Cal.App.4th 1184, 1214 (Bakersfield Citizens); Pocket Protectors v. City of Sacramento (2004) 124 Cal.App.4th 903, 927. The EIR is an “environmental ‘alarm bell’ whose purpose is to alert the public and its responsible officials to environmental changes before they have reached the ecological points of no return.” Bakersfield Citizens, 124 Cal.App.4th at 1220. The EIR also functions as a “document of accountability,” intended to “demonstrate to an apprehensive citizenry that the agency has, in fact, analyzed and considered the ecological implications of its action.” Laurel Heights Improvements Assn. v. Regents of Univ. of Cal. (1988) 47 Cal.3d 376, 392. The EIR process “protects not only the environment but also informed self- government.” Pocket Protectors, 124 Cal.App.4th at 927. Where an initial study shows that the project may have a significant effect on the environment, a mitigated negative declaration may be appropriate. However, a mitigated negative declaration is proper only if the project revisions would avoid or mitigate the potentially significant effects identified in the initial study “to a point where clearly no significant effect on the environment would occur, and…there is no substantial evidence in light of the whole record before the public agency that the project, as revised, may have a significant effect on the environment.” PRC §§ 21064.5 and 21080(c)(2); Mejia v. City of Los Angeles (2005) 130 Cal.App.4th 322, 331. In that context, “may” means a reasonable possibility of a significant effect on the environment.

Under the “fair argument” standard, an EIR is required if any substantial evidence in the record indicates that a project may have an adverse environmental effect—even if contrary evidence exists to support the agency’s decision. 14 CCR § 15064(f)(1); Pocket Protectors, 124 Cal.App.4th at 931; Stanislaus Audubon Society v. County of Stanislaus (1995) 33 Cal.App.4th 144, 150-51; Quail Botanical Gardens Found., Inc. v. City of Encinitas (1994) 29 Cal.App.4th 1597, 1602. The “fair argument” standard creates a “low threshold” favoring environmental review through an EIR rather than through issuance of negative declarations or notices of exemption from CEQA. Pocket Protectors, 124 Cal.App.4th at 928. The “fair argument” standard is virtually the opposite of the typical deferential standard accorded to agencies. As a leading CEQA treatise explains: This ‘fair argument’ standard is very different from the standard normally followed by public agencies in making administrative determinations. Ordinarily, public agencies weigh the evidence in the record before them and reach a decision based on a preponderance of the evidence. [Citations]. The fair argument standard, by contrast, prevents the lead agency from weighing competing evidence to determine who has a better argument concerning the likelihood or extent of a potential environmental impact.

Kostka & Zishcke, Practice Under CEQA, §6.29, pp. 273–74. The Courts have explained that “it is a question of law, not fact, whether a fair argument exists, and the courts owe no deference to the lead agency’s determination. Review is de novo, with a preference for resolving doubts in favor of environmental review.” Pocket Protectors, 124 Cal.App.4th at 928 (emphasis in original). DISCUSSION I. The IS/MND Fails to Adequately Describe the Project’s Environmental Setting. The City inadequately characterized the existing environmental setting and the site’s ability to provide habitat for rare, special-status species. Every CEQA document must start from a “baseline” assumption. The CEQA “baseline” is the set of environmental conditions against which to compare a project’s anticipated impacts. Communities for a Better Envt. v. So. Coast Air Qual. Mgmt. Dist. (2010) 48 Cal. 4th 310, 321. Section 15125(a) of the CEQA Guidelines (14 C.C.R., § 15125(a)) states in pertinent part that a lead agency’s environmental review under CEQA: “…must include a description of the physical environmental conditions in the vicinity of the project, as they exist at the time [environmental analysis] is commenced, from both a local and regional perspective. This environmental setting will normally constitute the baseline physical conditions by which a Lead Agency determines whether an impact is significant.” (Emphasis added.) (See, Save Our Peninsula Committee v. County of Monterey (2001) 87 Cal.App.4th 99, 124- 125.) As the court of appeal has explained, “the impacts of the project must be measured against the ‘real conditions on the ground,’” and not against hypothetical permitted levels. (Save Our Peninsula, supra, 87 Cal.App.4th 99, 121-123.) A document’s environmental setting is deemed deficient where it fails to acknowledge certain habitat that lies adjacent to the Project site. (San Joaquin Raptor/Wildlife Rescue Ctr. v County of Stanislaus (1994) 27 Cal.App.4th 713, 722-30 (“San Joaquin Raptor”) [description of the environmental setting deficient because it did not disclose the specific location and extent of riparian habitat adjacent to the property, inadequately investigated the possibility of wetlands on the site, understated the significance of the project's location adjacent to a river, and failed to discuss a nearby wildlife preserve].) Courts have repeatedly held that where an environmental document contains an “inadequate description of the environmental setting for the project, a proper analysis of project impacts [i]s impossible.” (Galante Vineyards v. Monterey Peninsula Water Management Dist. (1997) 60 Cal.App.4th 1109, 1122 [invalidating EIR with only passing H-2 H-1 cont. C.1.a Packet Pg. 69 At t a c h m e n t : F i n a l I S .

Sonoma County Water Agency (2003) 108 Cal.App.4th 859, 873-75.) As applied here, the MND fails to establish disclose the baseline environmental conditions of the area immediately west of the Project site, and its potential to support special- status species. Instead, the MND dismisses the usefulness of the area as habitat by labeling it a “utility easement.” (MND, p. 8.) However, this utility easement is vegetated open land that may serve as valuable habitat for special-status species, and the Project may impact species in this adjacent areas. By not accurately describing the environmental setting of the area directly west of the Project site, the MND failed to analyze any potential impacts to this land or species that may use it. The MND should be revised to account for this deficiency. II.The EIR’s Analysis of Energy Conservation Does Not Comply with CEQA or Appendix “F” of the CEQA Guidelines. The Project will substantially increase the energy demand and reliance on fossil fuels. At full buildout, the Project would increase demand for electricity by nearly three trillion British thermal units and more than 900,000 thousand kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per year during operation and natural gas by nearly 4,000,000 thousand (kWh). (MND, p. 48.) Despite this massive new energy demand, the MND does not conduct a thorough analysis of the Project’s energy impacts. Instead, it simply asserts that the Project will comply with Title 24 building codes and CALGreen, and concludes that the Project will therefore not result in wasteful or inefficient use of energy resources. CEQA requires more. In pursuit of CEQA’s goals including the long-term protection of the environment, it is paramount that agencies seriously consider ways to transition to a renewable energy future, as outlined in Appendix F of the CEQA Guidelines. CEQA requires agencies analyze a project’s energy conservation impacts. (14 Cal. Code of Regs. (“CCR”), §§ 15126.2(b), Appendix F; Pub. Res. Code (“PRC”), § 21100(b)(3) (“CEQA Guidelines”).) If the analysis reveals the project may have a significant environmental effect due to wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary use of energy resources, “the EIR shall mitigate that energy use.” (Id.) An analysis of a project’s energy use “should include the project’s energy use for all project phases and components, including transportation-related energy, during construction and operation. In addition to building code compliance, other relevant considerations include, among others, the project’s size, location, orientation, equipment use and any renewable energy features that could be incorporated into the project.” (CEQA Guidelines, § 15126.2(b) (emphasis added).) Appendix F of the CEQA Guidelines provides “guidance” on information to include in an analysis of a project’s energy use, and impacts and mitigation measures for agencies to consider. (CEQA Guidelines, Appendix F; CEQA Guidelines, § 15126.2(b).) It explains that “[t]he goal of conserving energy implies the wise and efficient use of energy,” which is achieved by “(1) decreasing overall per capita energy consumption, (2) decreasing reliance on fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas and oil, and (3) increasing reliance on renewable energy resources.” (CEQA Guidelines, Appendix F, § I.)

Rather, CEQA imposes a responsibility on public agencies to provide a methodical discussion that reduces fossil fuel reliance, encourages renewable energy use, and reduces per capita energy consumption. Here, the MND’s analysis of the Project’s energy impacts does not meet these standards. Instead, the MND’s section on energy merely discusses the Project’s expected energy consumption. (MND, pp. 47-48.) Missing from the MND is any analysis of ways the Project could decrease reliance on fossil fuels, increase reliance on renewables, or decrease per capita energy consumption. For example, the MND should include a discussion of the feasibility of putting solar panels on the rooftop, adding electric vehicle chargers, and other ways to meet the state’s energy goals. Merely stating that the Project must comply with Title 24 and the 2022 California Green Building Code (CAL Green) code is not sufficient. (See Ukiah Citizens for Safety First v. City of Ukiah (2016) 248 Cal.App.4th 256, 264-65; California Clean Energy Committee v. City of Woodland (2014) 225 Cal.App.4th 173, 209-23. These courts have held that an energy analysis must go beyond stating compliance with Title 24 and consider other relevant factors listed in Appendix F of the CEQA Guidelines, such as the project’s size, location, equipment use, and potential renewable energy features. (Id.) The MND failed to do so here. Similarly, the MND’s attempt to dismiss construction-related energy impacts because any construction-related energy use “would be substantially less than that required for project operation and would have a negligible contribution to the project’s overall energy consumption” (MND, p. 46) does not meaningfully contribute to the analysis. The question is not how much energy is required during construction compared to the operation. The relevant question is how the Project can be constructed in a manner that uses energy in a wise and efficient manner by reducing fossil fuel usage and increasing renewable energy usage. The same question then must be asked about Project operations. Finally, the MND’s statement that the Project is “calculated to be comparable to, or less than, energy consumed by other industrial uses of similar scale and intensity that are constructed and operating in California” is not sufficient because there is no evidence to support the statements and because it does not address whether the Project will result in a significant impact. Without a more robust discussion of the Project’s energy impacts, the MND lacks substantial evidence to conclude that the Project’s energy impacts will be less-than-significant. CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, the IS/MND prepared for the Project is inadequate. SAFER requests that the City prepare an EIR to fully analyze and mitigate the Project’s significant environmental impacts. Thank you. H-3 cont.

This comment is provided on behalf of Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility, and the commenter requests an EIR to be prepared. This comment is acknowledged. Since this comment does not identify a specific concern with the adequacy of the Draft IS/MND or raise an issue or comment specifically related to the Draft IS/MND’s environmental analysis under CEQA, no further response is warranted. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15088(a) requires that a lead agency only evaluate and respond to comments raised on environmental issues.) Response H-2 This comment notes that the existing environmental setting, in regard to special status species, has not been accurately portrayed. This comment is acknowledged. See Master Response #1. Refer to the Draft IS/MND Appendix A, General Biological Assessment. The General Biological Assessment determined the area immediately west of the project site is “a disturbed open field”. No special-status plant or wildlife species identified by the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) were observed during the field survey. The project site is not located within any designated Federal critical habitat. Further, the project is not required to analyze off-site land. Response H-3 This comment notes the project will substantially increase the energy demand and reliance on fossil fuels. This comment is acknowledged. As discussed in the Draft IS/MND, the project would comply with the 2022 Title 24 Standards and CALGreen Code, which require energy efficient and renewable energy features to be incorporated in the project design. These features include energy efficient appliances, equipment, and heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) systems that reduce energy consumption. In addition, the 2022 Title 24 Standards require solar panels to be installed on non-residential buildings, which increases reliance on renewable energy. The project would also include electric vehicle (EV) charging stations in compliance with the CALGreen Code, which reduces reliance on fossil fuels. As such, by complying with the latest Title 24 Standards and CALGreen Code, the project is deemed to decrease reliance on fossil fuels, increase reliance on renewables, and decrease per capita energy consumption, ensuring energy use associated with the project operations would not be wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary. Therefore, the energy analysis included in the Draft IS/MND is adequate. Response H-4 This comment suggests that construction-related energy impacts have not been sufficiently analyzed. This comment is acknowledged. Construction of the project is expected to last for approximately 14 months, which is short-term and temporary. Energy consumption during construction would also be short-term and cease once the project is fully constructed. Construction equipment would be required to comply with the latest engine standards and idling regulations, which reduce fossil fuel usage. The project would also use electric construction equipment if available, and because electricity would be generated from more renewable sources in compliance with the State’s Renewable Portfolio Standards, using electric construction equipment would increase renewable energy usage. As such, the project is deemed to reduce fossil fuel usage and increase renewable energy usage, ensuring energy use associated with the project construction would not be wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary. Therefore, the energy analysis included in the Draft IS/MND is adequate. C.1.a Packet Pg. 73 At t a c h m e n t : F i n a l I S .

The City of Grand Terrace is the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Lead Agency for the Proposed Project. To provide context, South Coast AQMD staff has provided a brief summary of the project information and prepared the following comments which are organized by topic of concern. South Coast AQMD Staff’s Summary of Project Information in the MND Based on the MND, the Proposed Project consists of constructing a 173,000-square-foot building for assembly and light manufacturing use on 9.2 acres. Regional access to the project site is provided via I-215, and local access is provided via Barton Road. Based on a review of aerial photographs, South Coast AQMD staff found that the nearest sensitive receptor (e.g., residential development) is located 115 feet from the Proposed Project site. Construction of the Proposed Project is anticipated from spring 2024 through summer 2025. The project is located southwest of Barton Road and La Crosse Avenue at 21801 and 21823 Barton Road. South Coast AQMD Staff’s Comments User-Defined Land Use Subtype in the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) Analysis In the operational CalEEMod output files, alongside the “Unrefrigerated Warehouse-No Rail” and “Manufacturing” land use subtypes, a “User-Defined Industrial” subtype is also included.1 According to the CalEEMod User Guide, the “User-Defined” option may be chosen to characterize project land use subtypes not included in CalEEMod. If selected, all data on the Land Use screen must be input manually. 2 However, in the Proposed Project’s CalEEMod output files, the lot acreage and the floor square area use are both set to zero under the “User- Defined Industrial” land use subtype. Since the truck trips for the “User-Defined Industrial” are specified as 105 trips/day and no data is filled under this subtype, there is a potential underestimation of the heavy-duty truck emissions for warehouse activities. Therefore, it is 1 Ibid. Appendix B - Air Quality Impact Analysis. CalEEMod Operational and LST Output Files. 2 California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) Version 2022.1 User Guide.

South Coast AQMD Air Permits and Role as a Responsible Agency If the implementation of the Proposed Project would require the use of new stationary and portable sources, including but not limited to emergency generators, fire water pumps, boilers, etc., air permits from South Coast AQMD will be required. The final CEQA document, whether a MND or EIR, should include a discussion about the potentially applicable rules that the Proposed Project needs to comply with. Those rules may include, for examples, Rule 201 – Permit to Construct,3 Rule 203 – Permit to Operate,4 Rule 401 – Visible Emissions,5 Rule 402 – Nuisance,6 Rule 403 – Fugitive Dust,7 Rule 1110.2 – Emissions from Gaseous and Liquid Fueled Engines,8 Rule 1166 – VOC Contaminated Soil Excavation,9 Regulation XIII – New Source Review,10 Rule 1401 – Air Toxics,11 Rule 1466 – Control of Particulate Emissions from Soils with Toxic Air Contaminants,12 Rule 1470 – Requirements for Stationary Diesel Fueled Internal Combustion and Other Compression Ignition Engines,13, and etc. It is important to note that when air permits from South Coast AQMD are required, the role of South Coast AQMD would change from a Commenting Agency to a Responsible Agency under CEQA. In addition, if South Coast AQMD is identified as a Responsible Agency, per CEQA Guidelines Sections 15086, the Lead Agency is required to consult with South Coast AQMD. CEQA Guidelines Section 15096 sets forth specific procedures for a Responsible Agency, including making a decision on the adequacy of the CEQA document for use as part of the process for conducting a review of the Proposed Project and issuing discretionary approvals. Moreover, it is important to note that if a Responsible Agency determines that a CEQA document is not adequate to rely upon for its discretionary approvals, the Responsible Agency must take further actions listed in CEQA Guideline Section 15096(e), which could have the effect of delaying the implementation of the Proposed Project. In its role as CEQA Responsible Agency, the South Coast AQMD is obligated to ensure that the CEQA document prepared for this Proposed Project contains a sufficient project description and analysis to be relied upon in order to issue any discretionary approvals that may be needed for air permits. 3 South Coast AQMD Rule 201 – Permit to Construct.

Conclusion The Lead Agency is recommended to revise the CEQA analysis to address the aforementioned comments and provide the necessary evidence to sufficiently support the conclusions reached. If the requested information and analysis are not included in the final CEQA document, either the Final MND or other type of CEQA document, the Lead Agency should provide reasons for not doing so. Pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 21092.5(b) and CEQA Guidelines Section 15074, prior to approving the Proposed Project, the Lead Agency shall consider the MND for adoption together with any comments received during the public review process and notify each public agency when any public hearings are scheduled. Please provide South Coast AQMD with written responses to all comments contained herein prior to the adoption of the Final MND. When responding to issues raised in the comments, detailed reasons supported by substantial evidence in the record to explain why specific comments and suggestions are not accepted must be provided.

This supplemental comment letter includes South Coast Air Quality Management District’s (SCAQMD) comments on the air quality analysis of the Draft IS/MND This comment provides a general introduction, appreciating the efforts to include SCAQMD as part of the project’s CEQA process. This comment is acknowledged. Response I-2 The commenter notes there may be an underestimation of truck related emissions. The “User-Defined Industrial” land use subtype was solely used to model heavy-duty truck trips emissions. The other emission sources calculated from lot acreage and floor square-feet area are included in the “Manufacturing” and “Unrefrigerated Warehouse-No Rail” land use subtypes. The total floor area modeled for “Manufacturing” (53.6 thousand square feet) and “Unrefrigerated Warehouse-No Rail” (118 thousand square feet) is 171.6 thousand square feet, which is slightly higher than the project’s total building floor area of 170,152 square feet. Therefore, the modeling is conservative and captured emissions from all sources for the correct total floor area. Response I-3 This comment notes if implementation of the project requires the use of new stationary and portable sources, including but not limited to emergency generators, fire water pumps, boilers, etc., air permits from South Coast AQMD will be required. The project proposes the development of an assembly and light manufacturing building, which does not require the use of emergency generators, fire water pumps, boilers, or other heavy-duty equipment that require on-site combustion. As such, the project is not expected to include new stationary and portable sources that require SCAQMD air permits. However, if such equipment is deemed necessary after the CEQA review is completed, the project applicant would apply for air permits from SCAQMD before such equipment is installed and operated. Response I-4 The comment notes SCAQMD requires written responses to all the aforementioned comments and a notice of any scheduled public hearing(s). This comment is acknowledged, and no further responses are needed. C.1.a Packet Pg. 78 At t a c h m e n t : F i n a l I S .

This requirement ensures that environmental impacts found to be significant will be mitigated. The reporting or monitoring plan must be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation (Public Resources Code Section 21081.6). In compliance with Public Resources Code Section 21081.6, Table 1, Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, has been prepared for the Assembly and Light Manufacturing Building Project (the “project”). This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) is intended to provide verification for the mitigation measures (MM) to ensure they are monitored, reported, and completed. Monitoring includes: 1) verification that each mitigation measure has been implemented; 2) recordation of the actions taken to implement each mitigation; and 3) retention of records in the City of Grand Terrace project file. This MMRP delineates responsibilities for monitoring the project, but also allows the City flexibility and discretion in determining how best to monitor implementation. Monitoring procedures will vary according to the type of mitigation measure. Adequate monitoring consists of demonstrating that monitoring procedures took place and that mitigation measures were implemented. This includes the review of all monitoring reports, enforcement actions, and document disposition, unless otherwise noted in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (Table 1). If an adopted mitigation measure is not being properly implemented, the City and its designated monitoring personnel shall require corrective actions to ensure adequate implementation. Reporting consists of establishing a record that a mitigation measure is being implemented, and generally involves the following steps: • The City distributes reporting forms to the appropriate entities for verification of compliance. • Departments/agencies with reporting responsibilities will review the Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration, which provides general background information on the reasons for including specified mitigation measures. • Problems or exceptions to compliance will be addressed to the City as appropriate. • Periodic meetings may be held during project implementation to report on compliance of mitigation measures. • Responsible parties shall provide the City with verification that monitoring has been conducted and ensure, as applicable, that mitigation measures have been implemented. Monitoring compliance may be documented through existing review and approval programs such as field inspection reports and plan review. • The City prepares a reporting form periodically during the construction phase and an annual report summarizing all project mitigation monitoring efforts. • Appropriate mitigation measures will be included in construction documents and/or conditions of permits/approvals.

The proposed use will not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfate of the persons residing or working within the neighborhood of the proposed Project or within the city. 1. The proposed assembly and light manufacturing use (“Project”) is consistent with the Industrial General Plan Land Use Designation and is consistent with the MR-Restricted Manufacturing zoning which supports low C.1.c Packet Pg. 117 At t a c h m e n t : R e s o l u t i o n 2 0 2 4 - 0 1 _ H i n e s A s s e m b l y B l d g P r o j e c t ( C o n d i t i o n a l U s e P e r m i t 2 2 - 0 2 , S i t e a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w 2 2 - 0 8 , L o t M e r g e r 01247.0001/919526.1 Page 3 of 30 intensity and low impact light manufacturing and industrial uses. Land uses surrounding the Project site consist mainly of commercial and industrial uses, with multifamily residential located northeast of the Projects site. The Project is a shell built to suit an assembly and light manufacturing building, the operational activities will include employees and customers traveling to and from the site, delivery of materials and supplies to the site, truck loading and unloading, and assembly and light manufacturing activities. Equipment such as forklifts, shelving units, automatic machines, conveyor belts will be utilized in the interior of the facility. There is no outdoor storage proposed and the Project has been conditioned to keep all storage material and equipment in the interior of the building. The proposed hours of operation for deliveries will be from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Loading/unloading of material and deliveries will be prohibited between 11:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m.; however, the interior operations will be conducted twenty-four hours/seven days per week (24/7). The 173,000-square foot assembly and light manufacturing building is proposed to be constructed approximately in the center of the 9.2-acre property and has an approximate height of 44-feet. The Project has been designed with loading docks located on the southwest side of the building, allowing the building and walls to screen operations and noise from nearby sensitive receptors, located to the northwest. In addition, the Project is located more than 50 feet from existing residential uses. The Project meets the parking requirement of 240 parking spaces with 18 tuck dock doors. Approximately 175 people would be employed on site, with two shifts per day. There are no anticipated parking issues. In addition, the Project has been conditioned to have a maximum truck storage consistent with the number of loading dock doors totaling 18. The Project has been conditioned so no construction or modifications that increase the number of loading docks will be supported. In addition, the Project has been conditioned to undergo a Project review in the same manner as the original conditional use permit should the site be subleased to more than one tenant business. The parking will include lighting proposed to be shielded from reflecting in the public right-of-way and adjacent properties. The Project will have on-site cameras that will be operated 24/7. Due to the unidentified tenant, a Conditional Use Permit was required so the Planning Commission may periodically review this approval to ensure that is being operated in a manner consistent with the conditions of approval and in a manner which is not detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties in the vicinity pursuant to Section 18.83.032.

The proposed use will not be injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood or within the city. The Conditional Use Permit allows the City to impose conditions of approval to prevent impacts to the adjacent properties caused by operations activities. The Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration includes mitigation measures to prevent and/or minimize impacts related to biological resources, cultural resources, geology and soils, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, transportation, and tribal cultural resources. The Project has been conditioned to provide a security plan and operations plan to be reviewed and approved by San Bernardino County Sheriff’s and the Planning Director. The proposed use is consistent with the zoning designation and meets the design standards. The Project frontage along Barton Road will include ultimate street improvements, including but not limited to sidewalk, curb, gutter, and street landscape. A bond will be established to allow for Colton’s Bridge Improvements. The Project will be conditioned for maintenance of all landscaping areas, including maintenance of the city’s right-of-way landscape frontage. In addition, conditions will be included for compliance with the city’s Noise standards, the lighting must remain on during the hours of operation, installation of security cameras, on-site maintenance, and overall upkeep to the building exterior. The proposed Project will not be injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood or City. The City has the authority to revoke a conditional use permit to ensure the community’s health, safety, and welfare are protected, pursuant to Chapter 18.83-Conditional Use Permit. b. The proposed assembly and light manufacturing use is consistent with the Light Industrial General Plan land use designation which permitted uses typically include light manufacturing and assembly, small scale warehousing and distribution, research and development, and administrative and service type of uses. The use is also consistent with the MR-Restricted Manufacturing zoning designation which supports low intensity and low impact light manufacturing and industrial uses which operate free of objectionable noise, dust, odor, or other nuisance to other (non-industrial uses) in planned, architectural integrated buildings; therefore, the proposal is consistent General Plan and zoning, and compatible with adjacent uses. c. Conditions necessary to secure the purposes of the Grand Terrace Municipal Code and General Plan have been applied to the Project.

Based upon the forgoing and all oral and written communications from members of the public and City staff (including, but not limited to, all oral and written staff reports and attachments) presented at the February 15, 2024, public hearing, the Planning Commission/Site and Architectural Review Board finds as follows with respect to Site and Architectural Review 22-08. 1. The proposed assembly and light manufacturing use is consistent with the intent of the Light Industrial General Plan designation intended for uses that can be made compatible with other surrounding uses within the City regarding noise, dust, odors, vibration, glare, air, quality, traffic, aesthetics, and hazardous materials. Supported uses typically include light manufacturing and assembly, small scale warehousing and distribution, research and development, and administrative and service type of uses. MR-Restricted Manufacturing zoning, which supports the development of low intensity and low impact light manufacturing and industrial uses. The Project requires the Lot Merger consistent with Goal 2.4. to provide for a mix of attractive industrial land uses designated to generate employment opportunities and Policy 2.4.5, to assist in the consolidation and assemblage of properties to assure adequate size quality development in areas designated as light industrial. In addition, the proposed manufacturing and light assembly use is consistent with the Restricted Manufacturing District in the Municipal Code which purpose is to provide for the development of low intensity and low impact light manufacturing and industrial uses. The use is permissible in the zoning; however, a Conditional Use Permit was required to ensure the use remains operating consistent with the approval. An Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration has been conducted for the Project. The Project meets the purpose of the zoning, and it meets the applicable development standards, including but not limited to lot coverage, parking, setbacks, and landscaping requirements. 2. The location and configuration of all structures associated with this Project are visually harmonious with this site and surrounding sites and structures, as they do not interfere with the neighbor’s privacy and do not unnecessarily block scenic views from other structures and/or public areas and are in scale with the townscape and natural landscape of the area. The building will be located in the central area of the Project site. The east perimeter will include a six-foot high fence with green vines and decorative pilasters every 15-feet with a five-foot landscape screen landscape area.
