INTRODUCTION
The City is currently processing an application from Beverly Hills Land Company, LLC for the Beverly Hills Creative Offices Specific Plan Project. The Project involves the construction of 11 creative office buildings that range from 3- to 4-stories in height. The project site is a parcel that runs parallel to North Santa Monica Boulevard and is commonly referred to as “Parcel 12”. The subject property is a portion of a former railroad right-of-way. The approximately 1,540 foot long by 60 foot wide project site is bounded by North Santa Monica Boulevard to the North, Beverly Boulevard to the East, and Civic Center Drive to the South and West.
E-6
Meeting Date: May 24, 2022
The requested discretionary entitlements for the proposed Project include: a General Plan Amendment, Zoning Map and Zone Text Amendments, a Master Plan of Streets Amendment, a Specific Plan, a Vesting Tentative Parcel Map, and a Development Agreement.
DISCUSSION
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the project will require the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR). Dudek is a California-based environmental consulting firm with more than 500 planners, scientists, facilitators, and support staff statewide. Dudek has a long history of preparing CEQA environmental documents for municipalities in the Los Angeles metropolitan area.
The scope of work, attached to the original contract, identifies that Dudek will complete the CEQA-required environmental review process for the Project with the City of Beverly Hills acting as the Lead Agency. Defined tasks include data collection and technical study production, preparation of draft documents (initial study and EIR) containing analysis of potential environmental impacts and potential environmental mitigation measures, response to City revisions and public comment, preparation and distribution of a Final EIR document, and attendance and support at City meetings and hearings.
The City Council has approved an agreement with Dudek for the preparation of environmental documentation associated with the proposed Beverly Hills Creative Offices and Gateway Park Specific Plan Project. This is an amendment to that agreement, which provides for an additional scope of work that is needed in order to complete the environmental review and provide technical information during public hearings. It should be noted that the original agreement has already been amended once administratively. Amendment No. 1 was executed to include COVID-19 infectious disease language and vaccination requirements.
The Project Applicant has submitted revised project applications and plans, and as a result Dudek will have to update the Administrative Draft of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The Project Applicant has revised the original project scope to incorporate a park design for Parcel 13 into the proposed project. The scope of work under Amendment No. 2 allows for the completion of the environmental review process and for Dudek to provide technical information during public hearings.
Staff is currently reviewing the revised materials submitted by the applicant as part of the application review process. Public hearings will be scheduled at a future date after completion of the Draft EIR. The application requires review by the Planning Commission for recommendation, and a final decision on the project will be made by the City Council.
Meeting Date: May 24, 2022
FISCAL IMPACT
All costs associated with the original contract and all subsequent amendments including amendment # 2 are borne by the Project Applicant. The cost for this amendment # 2 is $165,000. The Applicant has deposited the full amount of the contract amendment and has also deposited the City’s required 15% environmental contract administration fee of $24,750.

EXHIBIT A
SCOPE OF WORK
CONSULTANT shall perform the following services in connection with the preparation of environmental documentation for the proposed CITY creative offices specific plan at 9220 North Santa Monica Boulevard (the “Project”).
Project Overview
The Project Applicant will prepare and implement the Project on a site located at the northern gateway of CITY. The Project site is located on a linear 2.2-acre parcel of land bound by Santa Monica Boulevard to the north, Civic Center Drive to the west and south, and Beverly Boulevard to the east. Uses surrounding the Project site and vicinity include the Civic Center, commercial, multi-family residential, and across Santa Monica Boulevard, the linear Beverly Gardens Park.
The intent of the Project is to attract individuals and companies engaged in media and entertainment near the heart of CITY by providing 11 independent buildings, including 316 parking spaces within a single-level underground parking structure, for these creative companies to locate. By providing unique office space within proximity of restaurants and CITY’s commercial retail center, providing walkable access to CITY amenities for artists and employees within the Creative Offices.
As part of the Specific Plan, the Project Applicant intends to convey ownership of an approximately
2.25-acre linear parcel and a 0.3-acre triangular parcel to CITY for public purposes. Specific development plans for these two parcels, however, are not currently known.
Key to implementation of the proposed Project will be close coordination with the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) due to the known contaminants present at the Project site.
Project Site
The Project site, which collectively consists of the proposed 2.2-acre linear development site, the
2.25-acre linear parcel for CITY, and the 0.3-acre triangular parcel, is the subject of a DTSC site clean-up program. The site was historically used as a railroad right-of-way from 1926 until 1998 and has been tested to determine the presence or absence of known contaminants. Detailed site testing and investigations have revealed the presence of elevated concentrations of arsenic, primarily within the top 2 to 10 feet of soil, yet in certain locations extending down up to 45 feet below ground level. Groundwater testing has shown that arsenic at the site has not affected groundwater quality. Union Pacific Railroad, the former owner of the Project site, has entered into a cleanup agreement with DTSC and a draft RAW was completed in 2015; the RAW was not finalized, however, pending interest expressed by the Project Applicant to redevelop this site.
Given the current status of the draft RAW and the need for the RAW to be updated and finalized in concert with development and implementation of the proposed Project, a key aspect of the DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
5 proposed Project will be close coordination with DTSC throughout the development of the Project description, the environmental impact analysis, and ultimately, Project implementation.
In addition to close coordination with DTSC, CONSULTANT understands that the Beverly Hills community is sensitive to, and actively involved, with activities occurring at and in the vicinity of the Project site. Sensitivity to the community, and running successful public meetings in compliance with CEQA, will be an important part of this Project.
1. Task 1. Project Initiation
At the outset of the Project, CONSULTANT shall attend a Project kickoff meeting with representatives from CITY and the Applicant. The purpose of the kickoff meeting is to (1) compile the relevant background data and reports, (2) clearly define the proposed Project for the purposes of the environmental analysis, (3) begin to compile a list of cumulative projects; (4) receive available technical studies, (5) discuss the Project schedule and important assumptions for achieving the schedule, (6) identify all anticipated discretionary actions, (7) establish early communication among various Project team members and the protocols for ongoing communication, and (8) familiarize CONSULTANT team with the issues and concerns that CITY determines to be important issues for analysis in the environmental document.
2. Task 2. Project Description
Upon receipt of available information from CITY and Project Applicant, CONSULTANT shall prepare a comprehensive Project description. The draft Project description will be based on the details provided in the Applicant’s permit application and entitlement package. CONSULTANT will work with CITY and the Project Applicant to establish a detailed description of all construction and operational components of the proposed Project to verify that all necessary CEQA analyses can be undertaken based on realistic and defensible assumptions. The Project description shall also incorporate the overall concept of DTSC’s RAW implementation, as the removal of contaminated soil must be completed prior to construction of the proposed Project. CONSULTANT’s experience with similar development projects in throughout the greater Los Angeles area and with projects requiring the implementation of a DTSC-approved RAW will help to inform and expedite development of the Project description.
The ultimate work product shall include a description of the Project location and environmental setting; a description of the existing site conditions and land use designations; a description of RAW implementation, and a description of the proposed construction and operational elements of the Project. The Project description shall also include a statement of the proposed Project’s purpose and objectives, Project phasing, responsible and interested agencies, and a list of required permits and approvals. Included within the Project description will be graphics to depict the regional and vicinity locations, site plans, and other illustrations to assist the reader in understanding the proposed Project. CONSULTANT assumes that once finalized, the Project description will remain stable and therefore allow for technical analyses to be initiated.

6 3. Task 3. Initial Study/Notice of Preparation
3.1 Initial Study Checklist
CONSULTANT shall prepare a draft IS/NOP for the proposed Project using CITY-approved checklist format that is consistent with the procedural and substantive provisions of Sections 15063 and 15082 and Appendices C, F, G, and I of the CEQA Guidelines. The IS/NOP will be used to narrow the focus of the environmental issues addressed in the EIR. It is anticipated that the following CEQA issue areas will be sufficiently analyzed in the IS to allow their scoping out from further analysis in the EIR.
Agriculture and Forestry Resources
Biological Resources
Population and Housing
Recreation
Wildfire
CONSULTANT shall provide CITY with an administrative draft IS/NOP in electronic format. Once a consolidated set of review comments have been received from the Project team, CONSULTANT will incorporate all comments and submit (electronically only) a screencheck draft IS/NOP to the Project team for final review before preparing the final IS/NOP for public review. It is anticipated that comments received on the screencheck draft IS/NOP will be minimal and mostly editorial in nature. Substantive comments requiring a second round of substantial edits will require an amendment to the budget proposed. A print-ready copy of the final IS/NOP in electronic format (Word and PDF) will be submitted to the Project team for approval to print.
3.2 Circulate IS/NOP
Once approved and printed, CONSULTANT shall distribute the IS/NOP to the State Clearinghouse and responsible agencies, trustee agencies, and any other interested parties pursuant to the mailing list provided by CITY. For cost estimating purposes, CONSULTANT assumes a total of 60 hard copies of the IS/NOP will be produced, and a total of up to 150 standalone NOP mailers shall be sent to surrounding property owners. CONSULTANT shall be responsible for transmittal of the final NOP to the Los Angeles County Clerk, along with payment of applicable filing fees. If required, CITY shall be responsible for publication of the NOP in a local newspaper. To consolidate the overall Project schedule, CONSULTANT shall begin preparation of the EIR technical studies during the 30-day public review period of the final IS/NOP.

7 3.3 Scoping Meeting
CONSULTANT’s principal in charge and Project Manager will attend and facilitate one scoping meeting for the proposed Project. At CITY’s direction, CONSULTANT can present an overview of the Project description and IS and the purpose of the scoping meeting, provide an overview of the CEQA process, and answer questions raised by the public regarding the CEQA process and/or general questions regarding technical and analytic methods. It is assumed that CITY will coordinate the logistics for the scoping meeting, including reserving a meeting room location, providing translation services, and providing a court reporter if so desired, and that presentation materials describing or illustrating the Project will be provided by the Applicant. CONSULTANT shall provide relevant meeting materials, including speaker cards, comment forms, and a sign-in sheet. CONSULTANT will also take notes regarding the issues raised by commenting individuals that should be addressed in the EIR. Following the scoping meeting, CONSULTANT shall provide a scoping meeting summary memorandum that summarizes the general nature of the verbal comments provided at the meeting.
Deliverables
Administrative draft IS/NOP: 1 electronic copy (Microsoft Word) and PDF Screencheck draft IS/NOP: 1 electronic copy (Microsoft Word) and PDF Final IS/NOP: 1 printed unbound camera-ready copy; 60 printed bound copies of IS/NOP; 20 CDs

Scoping meeting summary memorandum: 1 electronic copy (Microsoft Word)
4. Task 4. Technical Studies
4.1 Air Quality
Local and regional climate, meteorology, and topography as they affect the accumulation or dispersal of air pollutants will be presented in the air quality assessment. Current air quality conditions and recent trends in the South Coast Air Basin, where the proposed Project is located, will be described on the basis of California Air Resources Board (CARB) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency annual air quality monitoring data summaries. Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies responsible for air quality management shall be identified, and applicable federal, state, and local air quality policies, regulations, and standards shall be summarized.
CONSULTANT shall estimate criteria air pollutant emissions associated with the construction phase of the proposed Project using the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod).
The analysis of short-term construction emissions will be based on scheduling information (e.g., overall construction duration, phasing and phase timing) and probable construction activities (e.g., construction equipment type and quantity, workers, and vendor and haul trucks) developed by CITY, and/or standardized approaches. CONSULTANT will then evaluate the significance of the construction emissions based on the South Coast Air Quality Management DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
8 District (SCAQMD) significance criteria. It is assumed that construction of the retail development center can be modeled in one CalEEMod construction run.
CONSULTANT shall assess the proposed Project’s potential to cause or contribute to exceedances of ambient air quality standards at sensitive receptors near the proposed Project activities using the SCAQMD’s localized significance thresholds (LSTs). For projects with a total site area of 5 acres or less, the assessment may use a simple “lookup table” approach provided by the SCAQMD. For budgetary purposes, it is assumed that the maximum daily area of disturbance will not exceed 5 acres for each construction phase (as the Project site is 2.2 acres); therefore, the LST assessment will use the lookup table approach provided by the SCAQMD and the construction emission estimates from CalEEMod. If onsite emissions generated during proposed construction activities would exceed the LSTs, then mitigation measures will be evaluated to reduce Project-generated emissions below the LSTs. If mitigation is not available to reduce potential localized impacts, a refined LST analysis using a dispersion model (i.e., the American Meteorological Society/EPA Regulatory Model (AERMOD) model) should be performed to more accurately estimate potential impacts to sensitive receptors within 500 meters of the Project. Although CONSULTANT’s current cost does not include budget for a refined LST analysis, if required, CONSULTANT has the capabilities to perform this modeling and can provide a separate scope and budget for this effort.
Due to the nature of the proposed Project and the close proximity of neighboring existing sensitive residential receptors, CONSULTANT recommends preparation of a health risk assessment of the emissions associated with toxic air contaminants (TACs), primarily diesel particulate matter (DPM) from heavy-duty trucks and off-road equipment during short-term construction.
CONSULTANT understands that the Project Applicant is having a Health Risk Assessment prepared; as such, CONSULTANT shall complete a peer review of this assessment.
CalEEMod will also be used to estimate Project-generated operational criteria air pollutant emissions associated with mobile, energy, and area sources. CONSULTANT will estimate mobile source (i.e., worker vehicles and heavy-duty trucks) emissions using the trip generation rates and additional necessary trip characteristics provided in the traffic report to be prepared for the proposed Project. Energy and area source emissions (e.g., natural gas combustion and consumer products) will be estimated using the default values in CalEEMod for the proposed land uses (e.g., office building) based on the total proposed square footage for the commercial spaces. Projectspecific values will be used in place of CalEEMod default values when available. The estimated operational emissions will be compared to the significance thresholds established by the SCAQMD. Furthermore, based on the proposed land use, it is not anticipated that operation of the proposed Project would require use of stationary sources (e.g., emergency generators).
Nonetheless, CONSULTANT can evaluate stationary source emissions and potential health risk under a separate scope and budget if determined to be required.
CONSULTANT shall evaluate whether traffic associated with the proposed Project could lead to potential exposure of sensitive receptors to substantial localized concentrations of air pollutant emissions, specifically carbon monoxide (CO) “hot spots.” The qualitative assessment will be based on the traffic report prepared for the proposed Project and applicable screening criteria recommended by the SCAQMD and/or the California Department of Transportation. For DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
9 budgetary purposes, it is assumed that the study intersections would not exceed the applied screening criteria and a quantitative CO hotspots analysis would not be required.
Additional Appendix G thresholds will also be evaluated, including the potential for the proposed Project to expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, to cause objectionable odors, or to impede attainment of the current SCAQMD air quality management plan.
+Peer Review of Health Risk Assessment
CONSULTANT understands that the Project Applicant will have a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) prepared for the proposed Project. As such, CONSULTANT shall complete a peer review of the HRA focused on construction DPM from heavy-duty trucks and any onsite off-road equipment.
CONSULTANT shall review the HRA to ensure that appropriate methodologies and modeling have been used and that the maximum cancer risks at the appropriate receptors (e.g., proximate residential receptors) have been tabulated. If the health impacts exceed the thresholds of significance, CONSULTANT shall review the adequacy of suggested mitigation measures to reduce the health impacts.
4.2 Cultural Resources
The following subtasks serve to provide an assessment of impacts to cultural resources in conformance with CEQA and all applicable local municipal guidelines and regulations.
Records Search
CONSULTANT shall conduct a California Historical Resources Information Systems records search of the proposed Project site and a one-half-(0.5) mile radius at the South Central Coastal Information Center, which houses cultural resource records for Los Angeles County. The purpose of the records search is to identify any previously recorded cultural resources that may be located within the proposed Project site. In addition to a review of previously prepared site records and reports, the records search will also review historical maps of the Project area, ethnographies, the NRHP, the California Register of Historical Resources, the California Historic Property Data File, the lists of California State Historical Landmarks, California Points of Historical Interest, and Archaeological Determinations of Eligibility.
Native American Coordination
Upon specific notice to provide assistance, CONSULTANT shall work with the client or lead agency to complete all required Native American outreach, including a Sacred Lands File Search and Assembly Bill 52 and Senate Bill 18 notification/consultation:
Sacred Lands File and Inquiry Letters: CONSULTANT shall contact the California NAHC for a review of their Sacred Lands File. The NAHC shall determine if any NAHC-listed Native American sacred lands are located within or adjacent to the proposed Project site. In addition, the NAHC will provide a list of Native American contacts for the Project who should be contacted for additional information. If instructed to do so by the lead agency, CONSULTANT shall prepare and mail a letter to each of the NAHC-listed contacts, requesting that they contact us if they know of any Native American cultural resources within or immediately adjacent to the proposed Project DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
10 site. This Native American Contact process is for Project informational purposes only and is not compliant with AB 52.
AB 52: The proposed Project is subject to compliance with AB 52, which requires lead agencies to provide tribes (who have requested notification) with early notification of the proposed Project and, if requested, consultation to inform the CEQA process with respect to tribal cultural resources. While AB 52 is a government-to-government process between the CEQA lead agency and California Native American Tribes, CONSULTANT shall assist CITY with the notification process and responding to any comment letters (if requested).
SB 18: The Project proposes a General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan and is therefore subject to compliance with SB 18 consultation. While SB 18 is a government-to-government process between the CEQA lead agency and Native American Tribes, CONSULTANT shall assist CITY with the outreach process and responding to any comment letters (if requested).
No in-person meetings with Native American groups are included in this scope of work.
Survey
Upon completion of the records search, CONSULTANT shall survey the proposed Project site for archaeological resources. The archaeological survey will consist of an reconnaissance-level pedestrian survey for all accessible portions of the proposed Project site with exposed ground surface utilizing transects spaced no more than 15 meters apart only where it makes sense to do so. Other developed portions of the proposed Project site will be spot-checked. Identified resources will be mapped using iPad technology with ESRI Collector and Avenza PDF Maps software. CONSULTANT assumes that the survey will be negative for archaeological resources (i.e., no newly discovered archaeological resources will be encountered and no previously recorded resources will require updates). No artifacts, samples, or specimens will be collected during the survey. Should any resources be encountered during the survey requiring recordation or collecting, CONSULTANT shall work with CITY to augment this scope of work and associated costs. Given that the subject property of the proposed Project undeveloped, CONSULTANT assumes no buildings or structures within the proposed Project site will require recordation or evaluation for historical significance at this time. Should this be required in the future, CONSULTANT can provide this service for an additional fee.
Paleontological Resources
As per CEQA guidelines, CONSULTANT shall complete a paleontological resources inventory and assessment. CONSULTANT’s qualified paleontologist will complete a paleontological records search through the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County to determine the location of any previously recorded fossil discoveries. In addition, CONSULTANT will review geological maps and paleontological and geological literature, which along with the records search, will provide information necessary to determine the paleontological sensitivity of Project area. CONSULTANT anticipates the direct costs for the records search to be no more than $300.00. CONSULTANT shall prepare a paleontological resources analysis to be included in the Geology and Soils section of the EIR that will include all necessary information, including records search and map and literature review results, to provide recommendations for future management considerations or treatment. It is assumed that any existing geotechnical and paleontological resource reports will be provided to CONSULTANT, if available.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
11 Cultural Resources Technical Report
CONSULTANT will prepare a cultural resources technical report that will summarize the results of the cultural resources records search, Native American coordination, and pedestrian survey. The report will discuss the proposed Project description, regulatory framework, all sources consulted, research and field methodology, and recommendations for appropriate management. CONSULTANT assumes no more than one draft and one final version of the report shall be required.
4.3 Greenhouse Gas Emissions
The GHG emissions assessment shall include a setting and background discussion consisting of a summary of the greenhouse effect and global climate change, potential changes to the global climate system and to California, and emission inventories at the national, state, and local levels.
It will also include a summary of the key federal, state, and local regulatory actions and programs to reduce GHG emissions. CONSULTANT will estimate the GHG emissions associated with construction of the proposed Project using CalEEMod based on the same construction scenario utilized in the air quality analysis. Proposed Project-generated operational GHG emissions that will be estimated will include those associated with mobile sources, natural gas usage, electrical generation, water supply, wastewater, and solid waste disposal. When proposed Project details are not available, CalEEMod default values will be used to calculate direct and indirect source GHG emissions.
CONSULTANT shall assess the significance of the proposed Project with respect to the Appendix G thresholds; specifically, whether a project would (a) generate GHG emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment and (b) conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing GHG emissions. The SCAQMD GHG CEQA Significance Threshold Working Group has proposed options lead agencies can select from to screen thresholds of significance for GHG emissions in residential and commercial projects; however, no thresholds have been formally adopted. Our budget assumes that a simple emission-based threshold can be used, such as the SCAQMD recommend 3,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) per year for all land use types.
At a local level, CITY has not adopted a GHG reduction plan or Climate Action Plan. Nonetheless, CONSULTANT shall discuss how the proposed Project complies with state regulations (AB 32); General Plan goals, objectives, and policies that help CITY contribute to regional GHG reduction efforts; and applicable development standards that would increase energy efficiency, such as the California Building Code. CONSULTANT shall also provide a qualitative post-2020 analysis that will evaluate whether or not the Project-generated GHG emissions would impede the attainment of the 2030 and 2050 reduction goals identified in Senate Bill 32 and Executive Order S-3-05, respectively. Because CITY has not adopted a numeric post-2020 threshold or provided guidance for demonstrating that a project will not impede the implementation of State’s post-2020 GHG reduction goals, a qualitative assessment is assumed to be sufficient.
4.4 Noise
As part of the Project’s environmental document, CONSULTANT shall conduct a noise and vibration study of potential impacts to existing noise-sensitive land uses in the Project vicinity (i.e., nearby residences). Single-family residences are located within 165 feet, across Santa Monica Boulevard DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
12 from the Project site. These land uses could be impacted by noise from Project-related construction activities and operation, as well as from Project-related traffic.
A field noise study shall be conducted to measure existing on- and off-site noise conditions. Soundlevel data will be collected over 10-20 minute periods at up to six (6) nearby noise-sensitive receiver locations. Manual traffic counts will also be conducted during the sound level measurements, for use in calibrating the transportation noise model.
Potential construction noise impacts at nearby noise-sensitive land uses will be evaluated using construction activity information provided by the Project applicant and the Federal Highway Administration’s construction noise model. Potential impacts from construction-related vibration will be evaluated at vibration-sensitive locations (i.e., residences and fragile buildings including historic structures) using guidance and methodologies recommended by Caltrans and/or the Federal Transit Administration.
Long-term (operational) noise effects from the existing, future and Project-related vehicle trips along the nearby roadways will be evaluated using the Project’s traffic study and the Federal Highway Administration’s Traffic Noise Model version 2.5. On-site operational noise from heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment, or other noise-generating Project features will also be evaluated.
The significance of noise and vibration impacts will be assessed based on the relevant CITY, state, and federal thresholds. If significant impacts are identified, mitigation measures to reduce impacts to a less than significant level (where feasible) will be recommended. The regulatory background, existing noise environment, study methodology, results of the noise analysis, findings of potential effects and mitigation measures will be detailed in the EIR Noise Section, with a technical appendix containing noise measurement data and modelling results.
4.5 Transportation Study
The CITY has adopted new transportation impact thresholds and guidelines to adhere to CEQA requirements pertaining to Senate Bill 743 (SB 743). The primary purpose of SB 743 was eliminating level of service (LOS) as a measure of vehicular capacity and traffic congestion as a basis for determining significant transportation impacts under CEQA. Rather, SB 743 required lead agencies to shift the focus from evaluating traffic impacts based on metrics that only consider vehicle travel time delay (i.e., impacts to drivers) to metrics that capture the state’s goals of improved air quality, reduced GHG emissions, and improved public health (i.e., impacts of driving).
In response, the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) selected vehicle miles of travel (VMT) as the new transportation impact metric for which lead agencies are required to define methodologies, thresholds, and mitigation consistent with their respective General Plan goals. It should be noted that while LOS will no longer constitute a CEQA impact, it can still be used to inform decision makers on the overall effects of a project. Consequently, CITY adopted their Local Transportation Assessment Guidelines in October 2019. These guidelines define the transportation analysis that should be completed for CITY projects beyond the VMT analysis required under CEQA.
The analysis approach contained in the proposed scope of work is based on the new CEQA thresholds and on CITY’s local guidelines.

13 CONSULTANT has teamed with Fehr & Peers for the preparation of the transportation analysis. The scope of work presented below is in response to the following requests in CITY’s RFP:
1. CEQA Analysis: The preparation of a CEQA transportation analysis must use the Vehicle Miles Traveled (VM”) metric.
2. Local Transportation Assessment Study: An additional standalone local traffic analysis using LOS must also be provided.
3. Parking Study: The Project Applicant team is preparing a parking study; this scope of work includes a peer review of the Applicant-provided study.
Project Initiation
Fehr & Peers shall attend a kickoff meeting with the Project team to review the Project description, site plan, and discuss CONSULTANT’s scope of work. CONSULTANT shall verify the study locations with CITY staff prior to proceeding with the Local Transportation Assessment and collecting traffic count data.
Traffic Count Data Collection
The Project is located between Santa Monica Boulevard and Civic Center Drive. The primary access points to the Project driveways on Civic Center Drive would be from the Santa Monica Boulevard & Civic Center Drive intersection on the western edge of the site and from the Beverly Boulevard & Civic Center Drive intersection on the eastern edge of the site. Based on the expected trip generation, CITY requires the preparation of a Local Transportation Assessment Study to analyze the changes to intersection operations in the study area and the potential for neighborhood traffic intrusion. For the purposes of preparing the cost estimate for this submittal, Fehr & Peers has assumed that up to 10 intersections and 4 neighborhood roadway segments would be included in the study. A preliminary list of study locations is provided below and will be reviewed with CITY staff.

14 4. Third Street
Traffic counts for the 10 study intersections will be collected during the following time periods:
Weekday morning peak hour (7:00 AM to 10:00 AM)
Weekday evening peak hour (4:00 PM to 7:00 PM)
Daily (48-hour) traffic counts will be collected for the four roadway segments. Additionally, Fehr & Peers shall conduct a field visit to verify roadway geometries and signal phasing at each of the study intersections.
Project Trip Generation & Distribution
Fehr & Peers shall estimate the vehicle-trip generation of the proposed Project based on ITE rates for similar uses. Trip generation will be estimated on a daily basis and during the AM and PM peak hours. Fehr & Peers shall distribute the Project trips onto the study area roadway network based on vehicle travel patterns in the study area and the expected origin/destination of trips to/from the Project site based on the proposed uses.
Existing Conditions Analysis
Using the traffic counts collected, Fehr & Peers will determine the existing LOS for each of the 10 study intersections. For both signalized and unsignalized intersections, CONSULTANT shall apply the Highway Capacity Manual methodologies using the Synchro software program and report average vehicle delay and LOS during the AM and PM peak hours.
Additionally, Fehr & Peers shall conduct a field visit to verify that the LOS results at the study intersections match actual travel conditions. If necessary, Fehr & Peers shall make adjustments to the calculation inputs to more closely approximate field conditions, such as applying a peak hour factor or accounting for reduced saturation flow rates due to downstream congestion.
Cumulative No Project Conditions
Fehr & Peers shall work with CITY staff and the Project team to determine the appropriate horizon year for the Cumulative Conditions analysis. Fehr & Peers shall review the latest Cumulative projects list from CITY. Fehr & Peers will update the Traffix database, which includes pending and approved development projects within CITY and nearby Cities of Los Angeles and West Hollywood to reflect the latest list of cumulative projects. These volumes will be added to the existing counts along with a growth factor (1% per year) to reflect ambient growth in traffic.
Traffic operations for the 10 study intersections will be analyzed under Cumulative Conditions during the AM and PM peak hours.
Local Intersection Analysis
Vehicle-trips generated by the proposed Project will be manually added to existing traffic counts and Cumulative No Project forecasts to generate plus Project conditions for the following analysis scenarios:
Existing Plus Project Conditions
Cumulative Plus Project Conditions
DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
15 Fehr & Peers shall determine the plus Project LOS for each of the 10 study intersections for both analysis scenarios during the AM and PM peak hours. Changes in vehicle delay and LOS will be compared to CITY’s criteria for signalized and unsignalized intersections and any delay increases that exceed CITY’s criteria will be documented under Existing and Cumulative Plus Project conditions.
Residential Roadway Intrusion
Fehr & Peers shall evaluate the Project’s impacts on the residential roadway segments listed above. Fehr & Peers shall determine the percent volume increase on the residential streets and compare that increase against CITY’s criteria. Any exceedance of CITY’s volume criteria will be documented.
Multimodal System
Fehr & Peers shall evaluate the pedestrian and bicycle system within the study area with the addition of the proposed Project. The existing system will be compared to CITY’s Complete Streets Plan to determine if any planned improvements would be affected by the proposed Project or if any planned improvements should be incorporated as part of the proposed Project. Fehr & Peers shall also evaluate the transit system for access opportunities to the proposed Project.
Project Site Access and On-Site Circulation
The review of Project site access and on-site circulation shall consider the following:
Project driveway traffic control
Delivery vehicle access and circulation
Adequacy of vehicular parking
Adequacy of bicycle parking
Potential queuing at Project driveways shall be evaluated based on the review of Project driveway operations. Potential queues will be described in the traffic operations report based on the anticipated intersection LOS results. This scope of work does not include a detailed queuing study using a traffic simulation model, such as SimTraffic or Vissim.
Transportation Assessment Report
Fehr & Peers shall produce a stand-alone Local Transportation Assessment Report summarizing the results of the activities described above. This report shall document the study area, data collection efforts, the existing and cumulative conditions analysis, site access, and the changes to traffic operations at the study intersections and roadway segments resulting from the proposed Project. Fehr & Peers anticipates producing one draft report for Project team and CITY Staff review. Following this review, Fehr & Peers shall prepare and submit the Final Report.
VMT Analysis
Fehr & Peers will use CITY’s VMT screening criteria, methodology, and thresholds to analyze the Project’s VMT. Based on initial review of CITY’s screening criteria, the proposed Project will require a VMT analysis. This analysis will be completed using the SCAG regional travel demand model. The Project land uses will be added to the model and the resulting “VMT per employee” will be reported. The Project’s VMT per employee will be compared to the SCAG regional average VMT per employee. A project impact will occur if the Project VMT is less than 15% below the DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
16 regional average based on CITY’s impact thresholds. Given that this will be the first EIR in CITY to complete a VMT analysis under CITY’s new thresholds, Fehr & Peers shall review the approach and preliminary findings with CITY staff prior to completing the VMT analysis.
Fehr & Peers shall prepare a technical memorandum for use by the Project team that describes the VMT methodology, the VMT analysis results, and the impact conclusions. This memorandum can be used to prepare the transportation impact findings in the EIR Transportation section.
Response to Comments
As part of the Final EIR effort, Fehr & Peers will prepare written responses on up to 10 public and agency comments related to transportation for a total of 20 hours of staff time. Additional comments or those requiring new analysis will require an adjustment to the scope and budget.
Meetings
For scoping purposes, Fehr & Peers anticipates attendance at a total of four (4) meetings. These meetings could include Project team meetings, public scoping meetings, Planning Commission hearings, and/or CITY Council meetings.
Parking Study Peer Review
Fehr & Peers shall peer review the parking study being conducted by the Project Applicant. Fehr & Peers shall review the data collection, methodology, and findings based on CONSULTANT’s experience in conducting similar parking studies. Fehr & Peers shall prepare a memorandum to document CONSULTANT’s comments on the peer review.

CONSULTANT’s approach for evaluating impacts related to visual simulations, air quality, cultural resources, geology and soils GHG emissions, hydrology and water quality, noise, and transportation is discussed in Task 4. The results of these technical studies will be incorporated into the respective EIR sections. CONSULTANT’s approach to evaluating impacts related to aesthetics, energy, geology and soils (assuming the Applicant provides a geotechnical investigation), hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology and water quality (assuming the Applicant provides a hydrology and drainage report), land use and planning, public services, tribal cultural resources, and utilities and service systems is summarized below.
Aesthetics
Per CEQA Section 21099 (as amended by SB 743), aesthetic impacts of a residential, mixed-use residential, or employment center Project on an infill site within a transit priority area shall not be considered significant impacts on the environment. CONSULTANT will work with CITY staff to determine whether or not the nature and size of the Project constitutes an employment center project and the applicability of CEQA Section 21099 to the proposed Project. Nonetheless, even if the Project is considered an employment center project, it is recommended that an abbreviated Aesthetics section be prepared of for the EIR that discusses visual changes in the Project vicinity that would occur as a result of Project implementation. To support this discussion, photo realistic simulations provided by the Applicant will be included in the EIR section.
Air Quality
CONSULTANT will rely upon the results of the air quality assessment prepared as part of Task
4.1 and include an evaluation of all CEQA Guidelines Appendix G thresholds, including the potential for the proposed Project to expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, to result in other emissions such as odors, or to impede attainment of the SCAQMD 2016 air quality management plan. Details of the analysis (e.g., daily criteria air pollutant emission calculations) will be included in an appendix to the EIR. In the event that CITY and/or Applicant elect to have CONSULTANT prepare a Health Risk Assessment, the results of the Health Risk Assessment will also be included in this section of the EIR.
Cultural Resources
CONSULTANT shall prepare a cultural resources EIR section that will summarize the results of the records search, Native American coordination, and background research completed under Task 4.2.
The section will discuss the proposed Project’s potential to impact historical resources under CEQA and will provide mitigation measures and recommendations as appropriate.
Energy
CONSULTANT shall prepare an energy conservation assessment for the proposed Project per DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
19 Appendix F and G of the CEQA Guidelines. The analysis will briefly summarize electricity, natural gas, and petroleum energy sources and the relevant regulatory framework. The CEQA Guidelines provide no specific thresholds for impacts associated with energy consumption; however, Appendix F and G of the CEQA Guidelines (14 CCR 15000 et seq.) provides guidance for evaluating whether a development project may result in significant impacts with regard to energy.
Based on Appendix F and G of the CEQA Guidelines, the following evaluation topics will be applied as thresholds to assess if the Project could have a significant impact on energy conservation: if the Project would (1) result in wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy, (2) conflict with existing energy standards and regulations, and (3) place a significant demand on local and regional energy supplies or require a substantial amount of additional capacity. The proposed Project will be assessed in regards to construction and operational energy consumption, which will be quantified to the extent estimation methods and Project-specifics are available. Proposed Project electricity (kilowatt-hours, kWh) and natural gas (British thermal units, BTU) usage will be estimated based on Project specifics; CalEEMod default values will be used, as appropriate, when Project specifics are not available. Petroleum consumption will be estimated using CalEEMod or the EMFAC Motor Vehicle Emission Source Inventory Model and based on the same equipment and vehicle assumptions assumed in the air quality and GHG emissions analysis. Proposed Project elements that would reduce the Project’s energy demand will be identified in the analysis and quantified as available. CONSULTANT assumes that CITY will provide a list of the proposed Project’s sustainable design and energy conservation measures prior to initiating air quality and GHG emissions modeling, as the energy analysis will be prepared consistent with the emissions modeling assumptions.
Geology and Soils
This scope of work assumes that the Applicant will provide to CITY and CONSULTANT a geotechnical investigation of the Project site. Drawing on the information and conclusions in this geotechnical report, as well as additional available geologic maps and data (U.S. Geological Survey, California Geological Survey, and U.S. Department of Agriculture), CONSULTANT shall prepare an EIR section evaluating the potential for the proposed Project to result in impacts associated with geology and soils. No geological surveys or field investigations are proposed.
Based on California Building Industry Assn. v. Bay Area Air Quality Management Dist. (2015), geologic impacts will only be considered significant in the event that construction and/or operation of the proposed Project would exacerbate existing geologic hazards, such as seismicity, faulting, liquefaction, and landslides. Construction-induced soil erosion impacts will be addressed with respect to a Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System-related stormwater pollution prevention plan and associated best management practices. In addition, the results of the paleontological resources portion of the Cultural Resources Technical Report, prepared under Task 4.2, shall be summarized such that potential Project-related impacts to paleontological resources can be evaluated.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
CONSULTANT will rely upon the results of the GHG emissions assessment prepared as part of Task 4.3 and include an evaluation of all CEQA Guidelines Appendix G thresholds. Details of the analysis shall be included in an appendix to the EIR.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
20 Hazards and Hazardous Materials
CONSULTANT’s hazardous materials specialists include registered engineers, hydrogeologist and certified engineering geologists who have worked on numerous remediation projects under regulatory oversight; thus, CONSULTANT is well versed in the nuances of managing site cleanup and maintaining ongoing site operations as well as re/development. CONSULTANT has also prepared hazards sections for many CEQA documents for sites with existing contamination and subject to cleanup orders required by regulatory agencies; thus CONSULTANT is practiced in designing mitigation that meets Project objectives in consideration of existing cleanup efforts and allows the Project to move forward in an efficient manner.
For the hazards and hazardous materials section of the EIR, CONSULTANT will evaluate potential impacts due to current and past hazardous materials/waste storage and/or use and identify potential environmental concerns related to construction and operation of the proposed Project. CONSULTANT understands there is existing contamination from arsenic in soil at the site due to its previous long-time use as a railroad. Investigation and cleanup activities are overseen by the DTSC. Numerous soil samples have been collected and there are many documents for the proposed Project site related to environmental assessment, investigation and health and safety, as well as voluntary cleanup agreements with CITY for ongoing landscaping maintenance. A soil management plan was prepared in 2017 and outlines procedures for management of any disturbed soils as well as worker health and safety. CONSULTANT understands that impacted soil would be managed and disposed of properly in order to ensure health and safety of workers, occupants and the community and will carefully evaluate all existing, available data and make recommendations as to appropriate mitigation that will meet these goals and limit potential impacts to the Project schedule.
The hazards and hazardous materials assessment for the EIR shall include:
Review of federal, state, and local regulatory agency records per Government Code Section 65962.5 for sites within and adjacent to the proposed Project site, including the Regional Water Quality Control Board’s GeoTracker website, DTSC’s EnviroStor website, and California Environmental Protection Agency’s Regulated Site Portal; Review of available environmental site assessment/investigation/remediation reports, and relevant regulatory documents, for the Project site and nearby sites that would potentially impact the Project site;
Review of the National Pipeline Mapping System for hazardous material pipelines; Evaluation of local safety plans, emergency response plans, and wildland fire zones; Evaluation of potential impacts to nearby airports; and Evaluation of potential impacts to nearby school sites.
Impacts will be evaluated regarding the construction and operations components of the proposed Project, including proposed use/handling of hazardous materials/wastes. If the findings indicate potential impacts related to hazards and hazardous wastes or materials, mitigation measures may include further work related to additional investigation, sampling, remediation, human health risk analyses and/or construction and operations contingency measures.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
21 Hydrology and Water Quality
Relying upon the results of the hydrology and water quality/drainage study provided by the Applicant, the hydrology and water quality section of the EIR will (1) identify beneficial uses and water quality impairments (if any) of downstream surface water bodies, (2) describe existing groundwater quality conditions, (3) explain state and federal water quality regulations and CITY’s development standards (e.g., regarding drainage and erosion control, non-stormwater discharges, and grading), (4) discuss the various ways in which the proposed Project could adversely affect hydrology and water quality (both directly and indirectly), and (5) identify any additional best management practices or mitigation measures necessary to reduce potential impacts to a less-than-significant level.
CONSULTANT shall summarize and evaluate the Applicant’s water quality management report and low-impact development design features, which are anticipated to articulate how the Project would comply with the requirements of the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board’s National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit requirements and CITY’s requirements, including best management practices to comply with the low-impact development mandates. Water quality, hydrology and drainage reports will be included as appendices to the Draft EIR.
Land Use and Planning
The proposed Project would require a General Plan Amendment, a Zoning Map and Zone Text Amendment, the adoption of a new Specific Plan, the approval of a Vesting Tentative Tract Map, and a Development Agreement. These approvals would allow a change in land use designation from Railroad to Creative Office Specific Plan, a change in zoning from T-1 to Creative Office Specific Plan, and put in place a Specific Plan permitting maximum building height and a maximum FAR. The Development Agreement would allow for approval of the proposed development, and as part of the Development Agreement, would include the conveyance of fee title land to CITY for future public use.
The land use and planning section of the Draft EIR shall describe existing land uses, intensities, and patterns in the vicinity of the Project site, as well as the compatibility of the proposed Project with existing development. The EIR will evaluate any potential conflicts between the proposed general plan and zoning amendments as well as the proposed specific plan with surrounding land uses. These conflicts could include a use that would create a nuisance for adjacent properties or result in incompatibility with surrounding land uses, such as difference in the physical scale of development, noise levels, traffic levels, or hours of operation. The EIR will evaluate the extent to which adopted CITY development standards or proposed design standards would eliminate or minimize potential conflicts between the proposed Project and adjacent uses.
Noise
CONSULTANT will rely upon the results of the noise assessment prepared as part of Task 4.4 and include an evaluation of all CEQA Guidelines Appendix G thresholds. Details of the analysis will be included in an appendix to the EIR.
Public Services
The CITY Police Department and Fire Department provide police and fire services to CITY, respectively. The EIR will address potential impacts of the proposed Project on police and fire department response capabilities and time resulting from construction of the new uses.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
22 The EIR will also address proper site access and circulation, location and number of fire hydrants, and fire prevention devices and systems that would be installed. Impacts on recreational facilities, schools, and libraries will also be analyzed. Potential impacts to public services will be substantiated and analyzed in the EIR.
Tribal Cultural Resources
CONSULTANT will summarize the results of the records search, NAHC SLF results and tribal outreach, and all CITY’s AB 52 and SB 18 efforts for the proposed Project, including notification and consultation with applicable tribes. In addition, the section will provide a brief analysis of potential Project-related impacts to Tribal Cultural Resources in conformance with CEQA and will provide mitigation measures and recommendations as appropriate.
Transportation
CONSULTANT will rely upon the results of the transportation assessment prepared as part of Task 4.5 and include an evaluation of all CEQA Guidelines Appendix G thresholds. Details of the analysis and the complete Transportation Impact Analysis, as prepared by Fehr & Peers, will be included in an appendix to the EIR.
Utilities and Service Systems
This section of the EIR will evaluate the potential for the proposed Project to affect water, wastewater, stormwater, and solid waste services. It is assumed that a water, sewer, and stormwater infrastructure capacity study will be provided by the Applicant to confirm that the offsite pipelines and infrastructure can accommodate the demands of the proposed Project. It is anticipated that a will-serve letter will be provided by LADWP regarding the availability of potable water to serve the proposed Project. This section will also include a discussion of the proposed Project’s possible sources of water supply over the life of the Project and the environmental impacts of supplying that water to the Project site, including analysis of any uncertainties in supply.
Based on information provided by the Applicant, this section will address whether the proposed Project would result in the relocation or construction of new water, wastewater treatment, or stormwater drainage, electric power, natural gas, or telecommunication facilities, the construction of which would cause significant environmental impacts. CONSULTANT will also provide projections of solid waste generation, which will be compared to existing and future landfill capacity to determine whether the changes in land use would substantially shorten the life of the landfill or necessitate expansion of the landfill. If inadequate capacity is identified for wastewater, water, storm drain, or solid waste facilities, measures to properly serve the proposed Project will be identified.
Cumulative Impacts. Consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15130, the EIR will include a discussion of cumulative impacts for each impact category analyzed within the EIR. The analysis will discuss impacts created as a result of the combination of the proposed Project together with other projects in the vicinity causing related impacts.
Effects Found Not to Be Significant. Consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15128, an EIR will contain a brief statement disclosing the reasons why various possible significant effects of a proposed Project were found not to be significant and were, therefore, not discussed in detail in the EIR.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
23 Alternatives to the Proposed Project. The alternatives chapter will be prepared to meet the objectives of the CEQA Guidelines by addressing alternatives to the Project as proposed. It is anticipated that, in addition to the No Project Alternative, other alternatives to be evaluated could include development of a mixed-use development that is consistent with the underlying zoning of the Project site. Each alternative will be evaluated with respect to the environmental issue area reviewed for the proposed Project. As required by the CEQA Guidelines, the advantages and disadvantages of each alternative and the reasons for rejecting or recommending it will be provided. The environmentally superior alternative will be identified from among the alternatives to the proposed Project. In addition, a narrative will be provided that discusses alternatives that were considered but were determined to be infeasible and, therefore, not assessed in detail. For purposes of this analysis, it is assumed that five alternatives will be carried forward for analysis evaluated in the EIR.
Long-Term Implications of the Proposed Project. This chapter will include analysis of significant irreversible changes that would occur as result of the proposed Project, as well as growth-inducing impacts.
List of Preparers. This chapter will include references, acronyms and abbreviations, and the preparers of the EIR.

Provided below is a discussion of each component of the Final EIR.
6.1 Response to Comments
The Response to Comments chapter will include comments received on the draft EIR, responses to those comments, and standard introductory material. All comments will be numbered (to indicate comment letter and comment number), and the responses to those comments will be similarly numbered to allow easy correlation. For purposes of this scope of work and cost estimate, CONSULTANT assumes that no more than 50 substantive discrete comments will be received on the draft EIR; note that one comment letter can contain multiple substantive comments. Since the actual scope and extent of public comments (assumed to be accepted only in written format) cannot be definitively determined at this time, if additional staff hours are needed to prepare responses to comments, the scope of work and budget provided in this proposal will be amended.
6.2 Revisions to the Draft EIR
Revisions to the Draft EIR will be incorporated, in underline and strike-out text, directly into the body of the Draft EIR document. This document will then be retitled as the Final EIR.
6.3 MMRP
The MMRP shall be in table format and will specify Project-specific mitigation measures and standard conditions of approval that are applicable to the proposed Project. Mitigation timing and responsible parties will also be identified. The objective of the MMRP is to comply with California Public Resources Code Section 21081.6, as mandated by AB 3180, which requires that a lead agency adopt an MMRP at the time an EIR is certified.
6.4 Certification Documents
CONSULTANT shall prepare draft findings of fact for each significant effect identified in the final EIR and prepare a statement of overriding considerations if unavoidable significant impacts are identified. As required by the CEQA Guidelines, one of three findings must be made for each significant effect and must be supported by substantial evidence in the record. The statement of overriding considerations will rely on input from the Project team regarding the benefits of the proposed Project. CONSULTANT will consult with the Project team to review and finalize the findings and statement of overriding considerations for CITY’s ultimate adoption.

Additional Scope of Work
1 Revised Project Description
Upon receipt of the Notice to Proceed, CONSULTANT will review available information from CITY and Project Applicant and update the comprehensive project description. CONSULTANT will work with CITY and the Project Applicant to refine, as necessary, the description of all construction and operational components of the revised project to verify that all necessary CEQA analyses can be undertaken based on realistic and defensible assumptions. The project description will also incorporate the overall concept of DTSC’s RAW implementation, as the removal of contaminated soil must be completed prior to construction of the proposed project. CONSULTANT’s experience with similar development projects in throughout the greater Los Angeles area and with projects requiring the implementation of a DTSC-approved RAW will help to inform and expedite development of the project description.
The ultimate work product will include a revised description of the project location and environmental setting; a description of the existing site conditions and land use designations; a description of RAW implementation, and a description of the proposed construction and operational elements of the project. The revised project description will also include a statement of the project’s purpose and objectives, project phasing, responsible and interested agencies, and a list of required permits and approvals. Included within the project description will be graphics to depict the regional and vicinity locations, site plans, and other illustrations to assist the reader in understanding the proposed project. CONSULTANT assumes that once finalized, the revised project description will remain stable and therefore allow for technical analyses to be initiated. 2 Revised Administrative Draft EIR
CONSULTANT will update the previously-prepared Administrative Draft EIR sections, as well as prepare new Biological Resources and Recreation sections, as follows.
Aesthetics
DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
30 CONSULTANT will update the aesthetics chapter and specifically, the environmental setting and impact analysis to address the Park Site. The existing visual character of the Park Site will be documented and described and potential impacts to scenic views, existing visual character, and day and nighttime views associated with the installation of lighting and glare sources on the Park Site will be evaluated. This scope assumes that the existing visual simulation of the Project as viewed from westbound Santa Monica Boulevard (i.e., Key Observation Point No. 8) will be updated by Gensler to reflect the conceptual park plan design for the Park Site prepared by Michael Van Valkenburg Associates Inc.
Air Quality/Greenhouse Gas Emissions/Energy
CONSULTANT will update the construction and operational emissions calculations of the project based on the revisions to the project description. CONSULTANT will also remodel using the latest version of CalEEMod (2020.4.0), which was released since the last draft. CONSULTANT will update the ambient air quality conditions to reflect the latest 3 years of available data.
CONSULTANT will update all emission tables within the air quality, energy, and greenhouse gas (GHG) sections to reflect the updated modeling. The methodologies within each section will be revised accordingly. CONSULTANT assumes that any additional information requested will be provided. CONSULTANT assumes no change in significance criteria for all three sections.
Biological Resources
Based upon available aerial imagery, it is understood that the proposed project is on a property that is primarily disturbed and is within a region of developed lands. As such, much of the natural habitats, soils, and hydrology have been removed. A CONSULTANT biologist will review available relevant literature and data on special-status species, sensitive natural communities, and potentially jurisdictional aquatic resources to determine their potential for occurrence on the project site, plus a 100-foot buffer (the study area). Following the literature review, a CONSULTANT biologist will conduct a general survey of the study area to identify existing biological resources and potential biological constraints. During the field survey, land cover types will be mapped and a general inventory of plant and wildlife species detected will be compiled, as well as a determination of potential special-status species and other sensitive biological resources that could occur within the study area. The results of the literature and database reviews and the general survey will be summarized within a Biological Resources section of the EIR. Mitigation measures will be given for any impacts deemed potentially significant, if any.
Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources
CONSULTANT will review all project description changes and update all CONSULTANT work products accordingly including ensuring the validity of the previous research, analysis and assessments in context of the updated project description. Specifically, CONSULTANT will assist CITY in their tribal consultation obligations and communicate the results within the CEQA document. CONSULTANT assumes that assistance with tribal consultation is limited to assistance with letter writing (if required), organization of tribal consultation communication record and documentation of consultation efforts within the CEQA documents.
Geology and Soils
While this section of the Administrative Draft EIR was not completed and submitted to CITY, initial work was done on the EIR section. As such, this amendment request includes time to update the DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
31 section based on the revised project and updated information, as provided by the Project Applicant.
Hazards and Hazardous Materials
CONSULTANT hazardous materials specialists will review the updated project description, which now includes proposed remediation of the northeastern adjoining “Public Benefit Open Space,” for potential impacts due to current and past hazardous materials/waste storage and/or use and identify potential environmental concerns related to construction and operation of the proposed project. CONSULTANT understands there is existing contamination from arsenic in soil at the Specific Plan Area due to its previous long-time use as a railroad. Investigation and cleanup activities are underway and are overseen by the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC). Using available soil sampling information, the EIR will include an analysis of potential hazards and hazardous materials impacts associated with remediation, project construction, and project operation.
Hydrology and Water Quality
While this section of the Administrative Draft EIR was not completed and submitted to CITY, initial work was done on the EIR section. As such, this amendment request includes time to update the section based on the revised project and updated information, as provided by the Project Applicant.
Land Use and Planning
CONSULTANT will update this section of the Administrative Draft EIR to reflect the revised Specific Plan and specifically evaluate land use compatibility of new public open space/park component of the revised project. Consistency with adopted plans and policies will be evaluated herein.
Noise
The proposed public passive park space is anticipated to consist primarily of landscaped areas that may be used for strolling, running, or other passive recreation. However, the conceptual site plan indicates there could be several water features included as well. Noise associated with the park would include demolition and construction activities, while long term operation could include noise generated by mechanical equipment used with the water features.
Potential demolition and construction noise impacts at nearby noise-sensitive land uses will be evaluated using construction activity information provided by the project applicant or based upon similar scale construction efforts and employing the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) construction noise model. Potential impacts from construction-related vibration will be evaluated at vibration-sensitive locations using guidance and methodologies recommended by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) or Caltrans.
Noise from proposed mechanical equipment associated with the water features will be quantified, based upon manufacturer sound power ratings of such equipment integral to the water features.
Incidental noise from passive recreational use of the park will be qualitatively assessed at the nearest residential receivers.
Recreation
DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
32 With the addition of a park component into the project, CONSULTANT will create a new Recreation section within the EIR that evaluates the potential for the project to increase the use of existing parks such that substantial deterioration of the facility would occur and/or whether the project would result in the construction of recreational components that could create a physical effect on the environment. The analysis within this section of the EIR will draw from the conclusions in the other environmental impact chapters and categories throughout the rest of the EIR.
Transportation
Fehr & Peers
Fehr & Peers completed a draft Transportation Impact Report to comply with CEQA requirements and a Local Transportation Study to comply with CITY’s traffic study guidelines in March 2021 for the Beverly Hills Creative Office project. The purpose of this scope of work is to update both studies to reflect the revised project description. In addition, we recommend collecting new traffic count data and updating existing conditions to reflect Spring 2022 conditions. As such, Fehr & Peers will complete the following activities:
Project Re-initiation
Fehr & Peers will attend a kick-off meeting with the project team to review the revised project description, site plan, and discuss our scope of work.
Traffic Count Data Collection
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the previous Local Transportation Study relied on historic data in the study area. However, many of the traffic counts available were several years old and some dated back to 2013/2014. Given that schools are back in session and much of the typical travel activity has returned to pre-pandemic conditions, Fehr & Peers proposes to collect new traffic count data this Spring. The new counts will still be compared to the historic data to confirm they realistically reflect pre-pandemic travel conditions.
Traffic counts will be collected at the study intersections and roadway segments included in the Local Transportation Study. Please note that the original Fehr & Peers budget reflected 10 study intersections; however, 13 intersections are now included in our draft Local Transportation Study based on the project’s trip generation and potential impacts.
The 13 study intersections and four study roadway segments are listed below.
Study Intersections
1. North Santa Monica Boulevard & North Rexford Drive (S)*
2. North Santa Monica Boulevard & Palm Drive/Beverly Boulevard (S)
3. North Santa Monica Boulevard, Doheny Drive, & Melrose Avenue (S)

North Maple Drive: Between 3rd Street & Alden Drive
North Maple Drive: Between Alden Drive & Beverly Boulevard West 3rd Street: Between Maple Drive & Palm Drive
West 3rd Street: Between Oakhurst Drive & Doheny Drive Traffic counts for the 13 study intersections will be collected during the following time periods:
Weekday morning peak hour (7:00 AM to 10:00 AM)
Weekday evening peak hour (4:00 PM to 7:00 PM)
Daily (48-hour) traffic counts will be collected for the four roadway segments.
Project Trip Generation and Distribution
Since the submittal of the draft transportation reports, ITE has published a new edition of Trip Generation which includes an updated trip generation rate for office uses. Fehr & Peers will update the vehicle-trip generation of the proposed project based on the new ITE rates to estimate project trips on a daily basis and during the AM and PM peak hours. Fehr & Peers will also estimate the trip generation of the proposed park based on ITE rates.
The new estimate of project trips will then be distributed to the study area roadway network based on vehicle travel patterns in the study area and the expected origin/destination of trips to/from the project site based on the proposed uses.
Existing Conditions Analysis
Using the new traffic counts collected, Fehr & Peers will update the existing level of service (LOS) for each of the 13 study intersections during the AM and PM peak hours.
Cumulative No Project Conditions
Fehr & Peers will work with CITY staff and project team to determine if the horizon year for the Cumulative Conditions analysis has been revised. Fehr & Peers will also review the latest Cumulative projects list from CITY and nearby Cities of Los Angeles and West Hollywood to determine if any new pending development projects need to be reflected in the Cumulative conditions analysis. Traffic operations for the 13 study intersections will be re-analyzed under Cumulative Conditions during the AM and PM peak hours.
Local Intersection Analysis
DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
34 Vehicle-trips generated by the proposed project will be manually added to existing traffic counts and Cumulative No Project forecasts to generate plus project conditions for the following analysis scenarios:
Existing Plus Project Conditions
Cumulative Plus Project Conditions
Fehr & Peers will determine the plus project LOS for each of the 13 study intersections for both analysis scenarios during the AM and PM peak hours. Changes in vehicle delay and LOS will be compared to CITY’s criteria for signalized and unsignalized intersections and any delay increases that exceed CITY’s criteria will be documented under Existing and Cumulative Plus Project conditions.
Residential Roadway Intrusion
Fehr & Peers will update the evaluation for the residential roadway segments listed in above to reflect the new traffic counts and the new project trip generation estimates. Fehr & Peers will determine the percent volume increase on the residential streets under Existing Plus Project and Cumulative Plus Project conditions and compare that increase against CITY’s criteria. Any exceedance of CITY’s volume criteria will be documented.
Multi-Modal System
Fehr & Peers will update the description of multi-modal facilities to reflect recent changes to Metro’s bus lines and service frequencies in the study area. These changes are a result of the implementation of Metro’s Next Gen Plan and temporary service cuts due to bus driver shortages. Fehr & Peers will also update the multi-modal evaluation to reflect the proposed park and pedestrian access to the park site.
Project Site Access and On-Site Circulation Review
Fehr & Peers will update the site access analysis based on the new project trip generation.
Review of project site access and on-site circulation will consider the following:
Project driveway traffic control
Delivery vehicle access and circulation
The results of the queueing analysis will be updated to reflect the new trip generation estimates for the project. Potential queues at project driveways will be described in the traffic operations report based on the anticipated intersection level of service results. This scope of work does not include a detailed queuing study using a traffic simulation model, such as SimTraffic or Vissim.
Local Transportation Assessment Report
Fehr & Peers will update the Local Transportation Assessment Report to reflect the revised analysis described above. It is assumed that Fehr & Peers will produce one draft report for project team and CITY Staff review. Following this review, Fehr & Peers will prepare and submit the Final Report.
Transportation Impact Report
DocuSign Envelope ID: 51CEEA55-7A73-4CE8-8343-207BDF97828E B0785-0001\2658867v5.doc
35 Fehr & Peers will update the Transportation Impact Report to reflect the revised project description, new trip generation estimate, new transit information, and updates to planned construction activities. The VMT analysis results for the office uses do not need to be updated due to the minimal change in the square footage of the project site. However, Fehr & Peers will update the VMT section of the report to discuss the park uses and qualitatively summarize why the park is not expected to have a VMT impact. Fehr & Peers anticipates producing one draft report for project team and CITY Staff review. Following this review, Fehr & Peers will prepare and submit the Final Report.
Responses to Comments
Fehr & Peers will prepare written responses on up to 10 public and agency comments related to transportation for a total of 20 hours of staff time. Additional comments or those requiring new analysis will require an adjustment to the scope and budget.
Meetings
For scoping purposes, Fehr & Peers anticipates attending a total of four (4) meetings.
These meetings could include project team meetings, public scoping meetings, Planning Commission hearings, and/or CITY Council meetings.
EIR Section
CONSULTANT will update the project’s transportation section to reflect the revised project description. Using the Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Local Transportation Analysis (LTA) reports prepared by the sub-consultant, Fehr and Peers, CONSULTANT will update the Existing Setting, Impacts Analysis including VMT analysis and Project Site Access and Circulation, Cumulative Impacts, Construction Period impacts and Mitigation Measures included In the EIR section. Per revised scope provided by Fehr and Peers for the transportation analyses for the project, it is our understanding that the project’s VMT analysis, impacts and mitigation measures (i.e., CEQA Analysis) would not change significantly. However, the project’s trip generation and traffic analysis (i.e., Non-CEQA analysis) provided in the LTA will be updated using trip rates from the current Institute of Transportation Engineers’ Trip Generation Manual and new traffic counts to be collected at the study area intersections and roadway segments, respectively. The list of cumulative projects to be included in the project’s traffic analysis may also be revised. As such, all relevant updates to the transportation analyses of the proposed project will be incorporated in the transportation section of the EIR.
Utilities and Service Systems
Utilizing the updated utility information provided by the Project Applicant, this section of the Administrative Draft EIR will be revised to include updated details for the revised project.
Schedule
Upon receipt of the Notice to Proceed on this Amendment Request, the CONSULTANT team will initiate updates along the timeline outlined in Table 2 below.
