will be required as a Condition of Approval for any future development project.
The project is required to implement the payment of TUMF fees and established LOS requirements. Project implementation is not anticipated to conflict with the regional congestion management program if the project description combined with standard conditions described in this discussion, including the payment of TUMF fees, are implemented prior to project construction. Less than significant impacts are anticipated.
Mitigation Measures: None
c) Result in a change in air traffic patterns,
including either an increase in traffic levels
or a change in location that results in
substantial safety risks?
Discussion:
The proposed project is not of such a size or nature to cause noticeable changes in air traffic levels, patterns or a change in traffic location. The project is not located near any airport facility or within an airport influence area. No impact is anticipated.
Mitigation Measures: None
d) Substantially increase hazards due to a
design feature (e.g., sharp curves or
dangerous intersections) or incompatible
uses (e.g., farm equipment)?
Discussion:
In its current condition, the undeveloped Project property is bordered by the partially improved alignment of 20th Avenue to the south and the future Calle De Los Romos to the east.
To provide proper access to the facility, off-site design and the proposed off-site improvements include street paving on portions of 20th Avenue and Calle De Los Romos along the Project’s frontage.
Circulation design will undergo City and Fire Department review before approval to ensure that the local development standards for roadways, in interior and exterior circulation designs, are met without resulting in traffic safety impacts including hazardous design features. The Project and the interim facility will not include sharp curves or dangerous intersections. No incompatible uses will result from the proposed or interim Project.
Driveways shall incorporate proper stacking, sight distance and intersection control (e.g. left turn pockets) features. Consequently, the project design will not substantially increase vehicular hazards.
A traffic control plan will be prepared prior to construction to reduce the potential for temporary hazards associated with construction activities. This requirement will work to coordinate traffic associated with the interim facility staff, construction traffic and existing users along 20 th Avenue. All project plans shall
be reviewed and approved by the City Engineering Department. Impacts are expected to be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: None
e) Result in inadequate emergency access?
Discussion:
The proposed Project will provide adequate access to emergency response vehicles, as required by the City of Desert Hot Springs and in accordance with the Fire Department review and requirements. Site plan review would include in-depth analysis of emergency access to the site to ensure proper access to facilities. As mentioned previously, the proposed site plan provides vehicular access points, both on 20th Avenue and Calle De Los Romos. The design details of the vehicular driveways will be reviewed and approved by the Fire Department and the City.
The Project is anticipated to provide proper premises identification with legible site name, address numbers, and clear signage indicating the site access points. Security gates, controlled access key boxes, operational fire hydrants and extinguishers are also required in accordance with Chapter 15.24 of the Desert Hot Springs Municipal Code.
Emergency access for the interim facility will also be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer and RCFD for confirmation of proper features/design.
The interim facility will temporarily allow up to approximately 26,880 square feet of cultivation space inside refurbished shipping containers referred to as Ecopods. These would be fully secured within temporary screened eight (8) foot chain link fences to obscure views from outside the structures.
Interim cultivation will comply with City standards, conditions, and ordinances.
Following implementation of standard conditions, the Project is anticipated to result in less than significant impact related to emergency access.
Mitigation Measures: None
f) Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or
programs regarding public transit, bicycle,
or pedestrian facilities, or otherwise
decrease the performance or safety of such
facilities?
Discussion:
SunLine Transit Agency provides bus services to the City of Desert Hot Springs through Lines 14, 15 and 20 (line 20 is available on weekdays only.) The TIA states that these line run on Palm Drive to the East. There are currently no transit routes that serve roadways in the immediate vicinity of the Project.
SunLine Transit Agency buses are wheelchair accessible and include bicycle racks accommodating two or three bicycles. The potential use of local bus services by future Project employees is not expected to conflict with or substantially increase the demand for this transit service. Project implementation is not anticipated to interfere with the existing service or performance at bus stop facilities. Less than significant impacts are anticipated.
Item Number: 2.

If future demand warrants, expansion of available services may be appropriate. Transit services are monitored by both the City and SunLine. Additional services are periodically considered in response to anticipated increase in use.
The proposed Project would improve pedestrian mobility by incorporating pedestrian sidewalks along the frontage of the proposed adjacent streets (outside of the proposed property fencing), where currently none exist. The widening and improvements of the roadways do not include bicycle lanes however improvements resulting from the Project are expected to enhance, rather than obstruct or conflict with, the City’s established goals on bicycle transportation or with any existing facilities. Less than significant impacts are expected.
Mitigation Measures: None
XVII. TRIBAL CULTURAL RESOURCES -- Would the Project:
a) Would the project cause a substantial
Adverse change in the significance of a
Tribal cultural resource, defined in Public
Resource Code Section 21074 as either
a site, feature, place, cultural landscape that is
geographically defined in terms of the size
scope of the landscape, sacred place, or object
with cultural value to a California Native
American tribe, and that is:
i) Listed or eligible for listing in the California
Register of Historical Resources, or in a local
Register of historical resources as defined
in Public Resource Code Section 5020.1(k), or:
Discussion:
As previously discussed in the Cultural discussion of this document, CRM Tech conducted a project and site specific study on historical and archaeological resources. The assessment included records searches, Native American scoping, historical background research, and field survey. The field survey results were negative for cultural resources. The entire project area was closely inspected for any evidence of human activities dating to the prehistoric or historic period, but none was found. No buildings, structures, objects, sites, features, or artifacts more than 50 years of age were encountered.
The 2008 survey previously prepared noted the presence of two small, rectangular-shaped concrete pads that appeared to be of modern origin, but their location is no longer a part of the project area for this study. No other sites, buildings, structures, objects, features, or artifacts of prehistoric or historical origin were encountered during the survey. Furthermore, the NAHC reported that the sacred land research yielded negative results for Native American Cultural Resources within the Project area.
Therefore, less than significant impacts are expected. However, the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, Morongo Band of Mission Indians, and the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians, has identified the project location to be a part of their Tribes Traditional Use Area (TUA) and requested Native American Cultural Resources monitors from their respective Tribes are present during all ground disturbing activities in the project area. Therefore, less than significant impacts are expected following the recommended mitigation measure CR-2 if this implemented.

Mitigation Measures: CR-2
ii) A resource determined by the lead agency,
in its discretion and supported by substantial
evidence, to be significant pursuant to criteria
set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resources
Code Section 5024.1. In applying the criteria
set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resources
Code Section 5024.1, the lead agency shall
consider the significance of the resource to a
California Native American Tribe.
Discussion:
Public Resource Code 21074 identifies “Tribal Cultural Resources” as “sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to a California Native American Tribe” and that are either included or determined to be eligible for inclusion on the national, state, or local register of historic resources, or that are determined by the lead agency, in its discretion, to be significant when taking into consideration the significance of the resource to a California Native American Tribe. To ensure that all significant Tribal Resources are identified and fully considered, the City of Desert Hot Springs initiated a 30-day government to government Tribal consultation period with local tribes on August 1, 2017 to conclude on August 31, 2017. Any Tribal Cultural Resources identified during this consultation period will be made part of the public record and disclosed to the decision making bodies along with their significance to the relevant Tribe.
As previously discussed, the NAHC was contacted by CRM TECH as part of their research for the Project and site specific historical and archaeological study. The Native American sacred land research did not indicate the presence of Native American resources with a half-mile radius of the Project site.
However, it was recommended that other local Native American groups be contacted for further information. CRM Tech contacted 18 local Native American representatives and Six (6) Tribal representatives contacted have responded in writing, the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, Morongo Band of Mission Indians, and the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians, have identified the project location to be a part of their Tribes Traditional Use Area (TUA).
The Cabazon and San Manuel Band of Mission Indians, and Augustine Band of Cahuilla Indians did not identify any specific cultural resources and deferred to Tribes in closer proximity. The Agua Caliente Tribal Historic Preservation Office and the Morongo and Soboba Band of Mission have requested Native American Cultural Resources monitors from their respective Tribes be present during all ground disturbing activities in the project area. Therefore, less than significant impacts are expected following the recommended mitigation measures CR-1 and CR-2 of this Initial Study are implemented. Should any new mitigation measures be necessary beyond CR-1 and CR-2 already listed, they will be incorporated into the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the project prior to final approvals by the City.
Mitigation Measures: CR-1 and CR-2

XVIII. UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS -- Would the Project:
a) Exceed wastewater treatment
requirements of the applicable Regional
Water Quality Control Board?
Discussion:
The Project falls under the Mission Springs Water District’s (MSWD) sewer service area. Public sewer and water is provided to the Project area by the Mission Springs Water District. MSWD does not currently have infrastructure in place for sewer services. MSWD operates two wastewater treatment plants serving 7,300 parcels and a population of approximately 20,400. The Horton Wastewater Treatment Plant (Horton WWTP), located on Verbena Drive about a half mile south of Two Bunch Palms Trail, has a capacity of 2.3 million gallons per day (mgd) (2,800 AFY). The Project proposes a mixed-use development containing retail commercial, vertical harvest commercial, and a marijuana cultivation campus developed in four Phases and three Planning Areas on 64.91. A sewer package plant will be installed at the Project entry to the east of the Project area to serve the initial Phase of the development. As additional Phases are ready to construct the package plant can be expanded to accommodate the additional wastewater flows. The Project is not expected to exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the State Regional Water Quality Control Board (SRWQCB) (Colorado River Basin). In addition, City and other local and governmental agency review will ensure compliance with all current and applicable wastewater treatment requirements. Less than significant impacts are expected.
Mitigation Measures: None
b) Require or result in the construction of
new water or wastewater treatment
facilities or expansion of existing facilities,
the construction of which could cause
significant environmental effects?
Discussion:
MSWD provides domestic water and wastewater service in the Project vicinity. The site is currently vacant and undeveloped land and currently not served by existing utilities. The Project proposes to connect to the existing 12” and 26” inch water mains in 20 th Avenue. The Project site does not have
access to wastewater service at this time. MSWD operates two wastewater treatment plants serving 7,300 parcels and a population of approximately 20,400. The Horton Wastewater Treatment Plant (Horton WWTP), located on Verbena Drive about a half mile south of Two Bunch Palms Trail, has a capacity of 2.3 million gallons per day (mgd) (2,800 AFY).
As part of the overall sewer improvements, MSWD has installed approximately 65,700 linear feet of sewer since 2010 and has abated approximately 1,275 septic tanks. The District is continuing to make additional sewer improvements and when complete will result in 31,300 linear feet of new sewer and service to 695 parcels and approximately 518 additional active septic tanks will be abated.
The 2007 MSWD Sewer Master Plan identifies the need for a Regional Waste Water Treatment Plant (RWWTP) which is proposed at the northeast intersection of I-10 and Indian Ave. At this location, a majority of the MSWD service area can be served and wastewater collected and conveyed to the Item Number: 2.

proposed RWWTP via a gravity system. The Sewer Master Plan states that this RWWTP should have been planned, designed and constructed and operational by 2012. However, the District is still awaiting further study and adequate funding sources. Per the 2015 MSWD Urban Water Management Plan, the RWWTP is expected to be in operation by 2018.
The Proposed project is designed to connect into sewer infrastructure contingent upon on the MSWD proposed RWWTP and a 21’” sewer line proposed on Little Morongo Road as outlined in the 2007 MSWD Sewer Master Plan. However, the development of the proposed project is not reliant on the installation of sewer and as an alternative is designed with a private sewer package plan with the ability to initially process up to 10,000 gallons of waste water per day on site, the package plant would be located just east of the Projects entrance. This plant will be designed to expand as the project proceeds into its other phases, with the intent of ultimately moving it to the MSWD proposed RWWTP property once this site is up and running and they are ready to accept it. The discharge from this package plant will be used for subsurface irrigation of the landscaping around the entrance to our project.
This facility will connect to the sewer drain pipes being constructed in their final locations, expanding to accommodate further phases if necessary. This will occur either in its existing location the Projects entrance or as agreed upon with MSWD. Once the new Treatment Plant is brought on-line, these plants can then be transferred to MSWD and used for overflow or backup facilities as they build and operate their RWTTP plant.
The wastewater from the proposed project is expected to be accommodated with the proposed package plan and the RWWTP once it is constructed. The operation and construction of the package plant will comply with the requirements of the State Regional Water Quality Control Board and Riverside County Health Department along with MSWD and the City. The sewer master planned facilities will comply with CEQA protocols prior to construction, to include environmental analysis.
Connections into sewer infrastructure once installed will undergo review by MSWD and City Staff to ensure wastewater capacity and compliance. Additionally, sewer installation and connection fees in place at the time of development or connection would be collected by MSWD. The Therefore, less than significant impacts are expected.
Mitigation Measures: None
c) Require or result in the construction of
new storm water drainage facilities or
expansion of existing facilities, the
construction of which could cause
significant environmental effects?
Discussion:
The flood plain in the Project vicinity has a FEMA Zone X (Shaded) designation, which applies to areas of 0.2% annual chance flood; areas of 1% annual chance flood with average depths of less than 1 foot or with drainage areas less than 1 square mile; and areas protected by levees from 1% annual chance flood. Project implementation would involve permanent site improvements introducing impervious surfaces in the form of buildings, paving, and hardscape to the previously undeveloped (pervious) land.
Item Number: 2.

The light industrial nature of the Project requires ample utilization of the entire property to accommodate the proposed facilities and operations (buildings, parking lot, drive aisles, etc.). As a result, opportunities to minimize imperviousness through the use of landscaping, natural areas or other pervious surfaces are restricted throughout the Project site plan. To prevent changes to local drainage conditions (patterns, quantities, or velocities) and adverse erosion and sedimentation impacts, the Project will implement a storm drain design with flood control facilities sized to handle the Projectspecific conditions.
The Preliminary Hydrology Report prepared for this Project indicates that runoff from each on-site drainage area will be conveyed via surface flows to a designated surface retention basin or an underground retention structure sized to retain and infiltrate the largest increase in runoff volume between the pre- and post-construction condition caused by the controlling storm event. The drainage management areas cover the entire proposed development. Only runoff in excess of the storm drain system capacity would be conveyed off-site in a pattern that does not cause erosion or siltation conditions. The Project’s northern and western boundaries will be improved with earthen slopes no steeper than 3:1 from the adjoining land to the curbs and paved surfaces. These slopes will be planted with native and/or drought-tolerant vegetation to increase stability and minimize erosion. The proposed development also includes street frontage improvements with proposed curb-and-gutter facilities, which will help address the existing unimproved condition.
The Project will be required to comply with all construction requirements and best management practices through the life of the Project. Standard engineering procedures currently in place require that all final grading and hydrology plans be submitted to the City of Desert Hot Springs for review and approval prior to the issuance of a grading permit. Less than significant impacts are expected.
Mitigation Measures: None
d) Have sufficient water supplies available
to serve the Project from existing
entitlements and resources, or are new
or expanded entitlements needed?
Discussion:
Groundwater is the primary source of domestic water supply in the Coachella Valley; the Mission Springs Water District (MSWD) provides potable water to the City by extracting groundwater from the Mission Creek subbasin. The existing MSWD distribution system consist of three independent water distribution systems: 1) Desert Hot Springs and surrounding area system – encompasses the City of DHS, a portion of the City of Palm Springs and surrounding unincorporated area of Riverside County, 2) Palm Springs Crest System, and 3) West Palm Springs Village System.
Per the MSWD 2015 Urban Water Management Plan, the MSWD system, inclusive of all three distribution systems, has approximately 1.26 million linear feet of pipeline. The District’s service area currently includes 9 active wells that supply the Desert Hot Springs System and two wells each for the Palm Springs Crest System and West Palm Springs Village System. The MSWD 2015 UWMP states the Mission Springs subbasin is currently in overdraft condition. MSWD, DWA, and CVWD now jointly manage the Mission Creek Subbasin under the terms of the Mission Creek Settlement Agreement (December, 2004). This agreement and the 2003 Mission Creek Groundwater Replenishment Item Number: 2.

Agreement between CVWD and DWA specify that the available SWP water will be allocated between the Mission Creek and Whitewater River Subbasins in proportion to the amount of water produced or diverted from each Subbasin during the preceding year. In 2014, production from the Mission Creek Subbasin was about 7.4 percent of the combined production from these two Subbasins.
As required by the policies of the General Plan, the City will continue to cooperate with MSWD and other agencies/jurisdictions in implementing a groundwater replenishment program capable of ensuring the viability of the Mission Creek subbasin.
The proposed development will be expected to follow water conservation guidelines to mitigate impacts to public water supplies. Examples of these water conservation methods include water conserving plumbing fixtures, drought tolerant landscaping, and drip irrigation systems. The Project proposes to connect to the existing 12” and 26” inch water mains in 20 th Avenue. Additional domestic water
improvements necessary to serve this development will be identified by MSWD and included as conditions of approval by the City of Desert Hot Springs during the City’s standard review process. Less than significant impacts to water supply are expected.
Mitigation Measures: None
e) Result in a determination by the
wastewater treatment provider which
serves or may serve the Project that it
has adequate capacity to serve the
Project’s projected demand in addition
to the provider’s existing commitments?

f) Be served by a landfill with sufficient
permitted capacity to accommodate the
Project’s solid waste disposal needs?
Discussion:
Solid waste disposal and recycling services for the City of Desert Hot Springs are provided by Desert Valley Disposal (DVD). Solid waste generated by the project would consist of standard household/office waste. Unused plant material derived from the cultivation campus will be composted and reintroduced into soil composite. Commercial waste and recycling collected from the proposed Project will be hauled to the Edom Hill Transfer Station. Waste from this transfer station is then sent to a permitted landfill or recycling facility outside of the Coachella Valley. These include Badlands Disposal Site, El Sobrante Sanitary Landfill and Lamb Canyon Disposal Site. CalRecycle data indicates that these landfills have 40-50% of their remaining estimated capacity. Less than significant impacts to solid waste are expected.
Mitigation Measures: None
g) Comply with federal, state, and local
statutes and regulations related to
solid waste?
Discussion:

8 2 AIR QUALITY SETTING
This section provides an overview of the existing air quality conditions in the Project area and region.
2.1 ATMOSPHERIC SETTING
The Project site is located within Salton Sea Air Basin (SSAB) within the jurisdiction of the SCAQMD. The SSAB (also referred to herein as “the Basin”) is aligned in a north-west-southwest orientation stretching from Banning Pass to the Mexican border. The regional climate, as well as the temperature, wind, humidity, precipitation, and amount of sunshine significantly influence the air quality in the Basin.
The climate of the Coachella Valley is a continental, desert-type climate, with hot summers, mild winters, and very little annual rainfall. Precipitation is less than six inches annually and occurs mostly in the winter months from active frontal systems and in the late summer months from thunderstorms. Almost all of the annual rainfall comes from the fringes of mid-latitude storms from late November to early April with summers often being completely dry. Temperatures exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit (°F), on the average, for four months each year, with daily highs near 110 °F during July and August. Summer nights are cooler with minimum temperatures in the mid-70s. During the winter season, daytime highs are quite mild, but the dry air is conducive to nocturnal radiational cooling, with early morning lows around 40 °F.
The Coachella Valley and adjacent areas are exposed to frequent gusty winds. The flat terrain of the valley and strong temperature differentials, created by intense solar heating, produce moderate winds and deep thermal convection. Wind speeds exceeding 31 miles per hour (mph) occur most frequently in April and May. On an annual basis, strong winds (greater than 31 mph) are observed 0.6 percent of the time and speeds of less than 6.8 mph account for more than onehalf of the observed winds. Prevailing winds are from the northwest through southwest, with secondary flows from the southeast. The strongest and most persistent winds typically occur immediately to the east of Banning Pass, which is noted as a wind power generation resource area. Aside from this locale, the wind conditions in the remainder of the Coachella Valley are geographically distinct. Stronger winds tend to occur closer to the foothills. Less frequently, widespread gusty winds occur over all areas of the Valley.
Portions of the SSAB experience surface inversions almost every day of the year. Inversions in the SSAB are attributed to strong surface heating, but are usually broken, allowing pollutants to disperse more easily. Weak surface inversions are caused by cooling of air in contact with the cold surface of the earth at night. In the valleys and low-lying areas, this condition is intensified by the addition of cold air flowing downslope from the hills and pooling on the valley floor. In addition, inversions in the SSAB caused by the presence of the Pacific high-pressure cell can cause the air mass aloft to sink. As the air descends, compressional heating warms the air to a temperature higher than the air below. This subsidence inversion can act as a nearly impenetrable lid to the vertical mixing of pollutants. These inversions can persist for one or more Item Number: 2.

14748-02 AQ Report
9 days, causing air stagnation and the buildup of pollutants. Subsidence inversions are common from November through June and are relatively absent from July through October.
Within the Project area, there is a natural sand migration process, called “blowsand,” that has direct and indirect effects on air quality. Blowsand produces particulate matter (PM10) in two ways: (1) by direct particle erosion and fragmentation as natural PM10, and (2) by secondary effects, as sand deposits on road surfaces.
Also, where water has already receded around the Salton Sea, the surface areas contain a salty mix of sediments that can change from a hardened salt crust to a fluffy soft layer of dust depending upon the season. Exposed sediments could elevate PM10 levels throughout the region.
Almost 120,000 acres of Salton Sea lakebed could be exposed as inflows to the Sea decrease in future years. Local communities may be affected by 60,000 potentially dust-blowing acres, which will cause PM10 levels to rise.
2.2 CRITERIA POLLUTANTS
Criteria pollutants are pollutants that are regulated through the development of human health based and/or environmentally based criteria for setting permissible levels. Criteria pollutants, their typical sources, and health effects are identified below (4):
TABLE 2-1: CRITERIA POLLUTANTS
Criteria Pollutant Description Sources Health Effects
CO CO is a colorless, odorless gas
produced by the incomplete
combustion of carbon-containing
fuels, such as gasoline or wood.
CO concentrations tend to be the
highest during the winter
morning, when little to no wind
and surface-based inversions trap
the pollutant at ground levels.
Because CO is emitted directly
from internal combustion
engines, unlike ozone (O3), motor
vehicles operating at slow speeds
are the primary source of CO in
the SCAB. The highest ambient
CO concentrations are generally
found near congested
transportation corridors and
intersections.
Any source that
burns fuel such as
automobiles, trucks,
heavy construction
equipment, farming
equipment and
residential heating.
Individuals with a deficient
blood supply to the heart are
the most susceptible to the
adverse effects of CO
exposure. The effects
observed include earlier
onset of chest pain with
exercise, and
electrocardiograph changes
indicative of decreased
oxygen (O2) supply to the
heart. Inhaled CO has no
direct toxic effect on the
lungs but exerts its effect on
tissues by interfering with O2
transport and competing with
O2 to combine with
hemoglobin present in the
blood to form
carboxyhemoglobin (COHb).
Hence, conditions with an
increased demand for O2
supply can be adversely
affected by exposure to CO.
Individuals most at risk

10 Criteria Pollutant Description Sources Health Effects include fetuses, patients with
diseases involving heart and
blood vessels, and patients
with chronic hypoxemia (O2
deficiency) as seen at high
altitudes.
SO2 SO2 is a colorless, extremely
irritating gas or liquid. It enters
the atmosphere as a pollutant
mainly as a result of burning high
sulfur-content fuel oils and coal
and from chemical processes
occurring at chemical plants and
refineries. When SO2 oxidizes in
the atmosphere, it forms SO4.
Collectively, these pollutants are
referred to as sulfur oxides (SOX).
Coal or oil burning
power plants and
industries,
refineries, diesel
engines
A few minutes of exposure to
low levels of SO2 can result in
airway constriction in some
asthmatics, all of whom are
sensitive to its effects. In
asthmatics, increase in
resistance to air flow, as well
as reduction in breathing
capacity leading to severe
breathing difficulties, are
observed after acute
exposure to SO2. In contrast,
healthy individuals do not
exhibit similar acute
responses even after
exposure to higher
concentrations of SO2.
Animal studies suggest that
despite SO2 being a
respiratory irritant, it does
not cause substantial lung
injury at ambient
concentrations. However,
very high levels of exposure
can cause lung edema (fluid
accumulation), lung tissue
damage, and sloughing off of
cells lining the respiratory
tract.
Some population-based
studies indicate that the
mortality and morbidity
effects associated with fine
particles show a similar
association with ambient SO2
levels. In these studies,
efforts to separate the effects
of SO2 from those of fine
particles have not been
successful. It is not clear
whether the two pollutants
act synergistically, or one

11 Criteria Pollutant Description Sources Health Effects pollutant alone is the
predominant factor.
NOX NOX consist of nitric oxide (NO),
nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and
nitrous oxide (N2O) and are
formed when nitrogen (N2)
combines with O2. Their lifespan
in the atmosphere ranges from
one to seven days for nitric oxide
and nitrogen dioxide, to 170
years for nitrous oxide. NOX is
typically created during
combustion processes and are
major contributors to smog
formation and acid deposition.
NO2 is a criteria air pollutant and
may result in numerous adverse
health effects; it absorbs blue
light, resulting in a brownish-red
cast to the atmosphere and
reduced visibility. Of the seven
types of nitrogen oxide
compounds, NO2 is the most
abundant in the atmosphere. As
ambient concentrations of NO2
are related to traffic density,
commuters in heavy traffic may
be exposed to higher
concentrations of NO2 than those
indicated by regional monitoring
station.
Any source that
burns fuel such as
automobiles, trucks,
heavy construction
equipment, farming
equipment and
residential heating.
Population-based studies
suggest that an increase in
acute respiratory illness,
including infections and
respiratory symptoms in
children (not infants), is
associated with long-term
exposure to NO2 at levels
found in homes with gas
stoves, which are higher than
ambient levels found in
Southern California. Increase
in resistance to air flow and
airway contraction is
observed after short-term
exposure to NO2 in healthy
subjects. Larger decreases in
lung functions are observed
in individuals with asthma or
chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (e.g.,
chronic bronchitis,
emphysema) than in healthy
individuals, indicating a
greater susceptibility of these
sub-groups.
In animals, exposure to levels
of NO2 considerably higher
than ambient concentrations
result in increased
susceptibility to infections,
possibly due to the observed
changes in cells involved in
maintaining immune
functions. The severity of
lung tissue damage
associated with high levels of
O3 exposure increases when
animals are exposed to a
combination of O3 and NO2.

disease, are considered to be
the most susceptible subgroups for O3 effects. Shortterm exposure (lasting for a few hours) to O3 at levels
typically observed in
Southern California can result
in breathing pattern changes,
reduction of breathing
capacity, increased
susceptibility to infections,
inflammation of the lung
tissue, and some
immunological changes.
Elevated O3 levels are
associated with increased
school absences. In recent
years, a correlation between
elevated ambient O3 levels
and increases in daily hospital
admission rates, as well as
mortality, has also been
reported. An increased risk
for asthma has been found in
children who participate in
multiple outdoor sports and
live in communities with high
O3 levels.
O3 exposure under exercising
conditions is known to
increase the severity of the
responses described above.
Animal studies suggest that
exposure to a combination of
pollutants that includes O3
may be more toxic than
exposure to O3 alone.
Although lung volume and
resistance changes observed
after a single exposure
diminish with repeated
exposures, biochemical and
cellular changes appear to
persist, which can lead to
subsequent lung structural
changes.

13 Criteria Pollutant Description Sources Health Effects Particulate Matter PM10: A major air pollutant
consisting of tiny solid or liquid
particles of soot, dust, smoke,
fumes, and aerosols. Particulate
matter pollution is a major cause
of reduce visibility (haze) which is
caused by the scattering of light
and consequently the significant
reduction air clarity. The size of
the particles (10 microns or
smaller, about 0.0004 inches or
less) allows them to easily enter
the lungs where they may be
deposited, resulting in adverse
health effects. Additionally, it
should be noted that PM10 is
considered a criteria air
pollutant.
PM2.5: A similar air pollutant to
PM10 consisting of tiny solid or
liquid particles which are 2.5
microns or smaller (which is often
referred to as fine particles).
These particles are formed in the
atmosphere from primary
gaseous emissions that include
SO4 formed from SO2 release
from power plants and industrial
facilities and nitrates that are
formed from NOX release from
power plants, automobiles and
other types of combustion
sources. The chemical
composition of fine particles
highly depends on location, time
of year, and weather conditions.
PM2.5 is a criteria air pollutant.
Sources of PM10
include road dust,
windblown dust and
construction. Also
formed from other
pollutants (acid
rain, NOX, SOX,
organics).
Incomplete
combustion of any
fuel.
PM2.5 comes from
fuel combustion in
motor vehicles,
equipment and
industrial sources,
residential and
agricultural
burning. Also
formed from
reaction of other
pollutants (acid
rain, NOX, SOX,
organics).
A consistent correlation
between elevated ambient
fine particulate matter (PM10
and PM2.5) levels and an
increase in mortality rates,
respiratory infections,
number and severity of
asthma attacks and the
number of hospital
admissions has been
observed in different parts of
the United States and various
areas around the world. In
recent years, some studies
have reported an association
between long-term exposure
to air pollution dominated by
fine particles and increased
mortality, reduction in
lifespan, and an increased
mortality from lung cancer.
Daily fluctuations in PM2.5
concentration levels have
also been related to hospital
admissions for acute
respiratory conditions in
children, to school and
kindergarten absences, to a
decrease in respiratory lung
volumes in normal children,
and to increased medication
use in children and adults
with asthma. Recent studies
show lung function growth in
children is reduced with long
term exposure to particulate
matter.
The elderly, people with preexisting respiratory or
cardiovascular disease, and
children appear to be more
susceptible to the effects of
high levels of PM10 and PM2.5.
VOC VOCs are hydrocarbon
compounds (any compound
containing various combinations
of hydrogen and carbon atoms)
that exist in the ambient air.

ROG Similar to VOC, ROGs are also
precursors in forming O3 and
consist of compounds containing
methane, ethane, propane,
butane, and longer chain
hydrocarbons, which are typically
the result of some type of
combustion/decomposition
process. Smog is formed when

and elevated blood Pb levels
can occur due to breakdown
of bone tissue during
pregnancy, hyperthyroidism
(increased secretion of
hormones from the thyroid
gland) and osteoporosis
(breakdown of bony tissue).
Fetuses and breast-fed babies
can be exposed to higher
levels of Pb because of
previous environmental Pb
exposure of their mothers.
Odor Odor means the perception
experienced by a person when
one or more chemical substances
in the air come into contact with
the human olfactory nerves (5).
Odors can come
from many sources
including animals,
human activities,
industry, natures,
and vehicles.
Offensive odors can
potentially affect human
health in several ways. First,
odorant compounds can
irritate the eye, nose, and
throat, which can reduce
respiratory volume. Second,
studies have shown that the
VOCs that cause odors can
stimulate sensory nerves to
cause neurochemical changes
that might influence health,
for instance, by
compromising the immune
system. Finally, unpleasant
odors can trigger memories
or attitudes linked to
unpleasant odors, causing
cognitive and emotional
effects such as stress.

16 2.3 EXISTING AIR QUALITY
Existing air quality is measured at established SCAQMD air quality monitoring stations. Monitored air quality is evaluated in the context of ambient air quality standards. These standards are the levels of air quality that are considered safe, with an adequate margin of safety, to protect the public health and welfare. National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) and California Ambient Air Quality Standards (CAAQS) currently in effect are shown in Table 2-2 (6).
The determination of whether a region’s air quality is healthful or unhealthful is determined by comparing contaminant levels in ambient air samples to the state and federal standards. At the time of this AQIA, the most recent state and federal standards were updated by California Air Resources Board (CARB) on May 4, 2016 and are presented in Table 2-2. The air quality in a region is considered to be in attainment by the state if the measured ambient air pollutant levels for O3, CO (except 8-hour Lake Tahoe), SO2 (1 and 24 hour), NO2, PM10, and PM2.5 are not to be exceeded. All others are not to be equaled or exceeded. It should be noted that the three-year period is presented for informational purposes and is not the basis for how the State assigns attainment status. Attainment status for a pollutant means that the SCAQMD meets the standards set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or the California EPA (CalEPA).
Conversely, nonattainment means that an area has monitored air quality that does not meet the NAAQS or CAAQS standards. In order to improve air quality in nonattainment areas, a State Implementation Plan (SIP) is drafted by CARB. The SIP outlines the measures that the state will take to improve air quality. Once nonattainment areas meet the standards and additional redesignation requirements, the EPA will designate the area as a maintenance area (7).

19 2.4 REGIONAL AIR QUALITY
Air pollution contributes to a wide variety of adverse health effects. The EPA has established NAAQS for six of the most common air pollutants: CO, Pb, O3, particulate matter, NO2, and SO2 which are known as criteria pollutants. The SCAQMD monitorslevels of various criteria pollutants at 37 permanent monitoring stations and 5 single-pollutant source Pb air monitoring sites throughout the air district (8). On January 5, 2021, CARB posted the 2020 amendments to the state and national area designations. See Table 2-3 for attainment designations for the SCAB (9).
Appendix 2.1 provides geographic representation of the state and federal attainment status for applicable criteria pollutants within the SSAB.

2.5 LOCAL AIR QUALITY
The Project site is located within the Source Receptor Area (SRA) 30. Within SRA 30, the SCAQMD Coachella Valley 1 monitoring station, located 3.50 miles south of the Project site, is the nearest long-term air quality monitoring station for CO and NO2. As the Coachella Valley 2 monitoring station does not include statistics for O3, PM10, and PM2.5, the next nearest station will be used.
The Coachella Valley 2 monitoring station, located 22.88 miles siutheastt of the Project, is the next nearest monitoring station that reports air quality statistics for O3, PM10, and PM2.5.
The most recent three (3) years of published data available from SCAQMD is shown on Table 2-4 and identifies the number of days ambient air quality standards were exceeded for the study area, which is considered to be representative of the local air quality at the Project site. Data for O3, CO, NO2, PM10, and PM2.5 for 2018 through 2020 was obtained from the SCAQMD Air Quality Data Tables (10). Additionally, data for SO2 has been omitted as attainment is regularly met in the SCAB and few monitoring stations measure SO2 concentrations.

2.6 REGULATORY BACKGROUND
2.6.1 FEDERAL REGULATIONS
The EPA is responsible for setting and enforcing the NAAQS for O3, CO, NOX, SO2, PM10, and Pb (11). The EPA has jurisdiction over emissions sources that are under the authority of the federal government including aircraft, locomotives, and emissions sources outside state waters (Outer Continental Shelf). The EPA also establishes emission standards for vehicles sold in states other than California. Automobiles sold in California must meet the stricter emission requirements of the CARB.
The Federal Clean Air Act (CAA) was first enacted in 1955 and has been amended numerous times in subsequent years (1963, 1965, 1967, 1970, 1977, and 1990). The CAA establishes the federal air quality standards, the NAAQS, and specifies future dates for achieving compliance (12). The CAA also mandates that states submit and implement SIPs for local areas not meeting these Item Number: 2.
Desert Gateway Air Quality Impact Analysis
14748-02 AQ Report
21 standards. These plans must include pollution control measures that demonstrate how the standards will be met.
The 1990 amendments to the CAA that identify specific emission reduction goals for areas not meeting the NAAQS require a demonstration of reasonable further progress toward attainment and incorporate additional sanctions for failure to attain or to meet interim milestones. The sections of the CAA most directly applicable to the development of the Project site include Title I (Non-Attainment Provisions) and Title II (Mobile Source Provisions) (13) (14). Title I provisions were established with the goal of attaining the NAAQS for the following criteria pollutants O3, NO2, SO2, PM10, CO, PM2.5, and Pb. The NAAQS were amended in July 1997 to include an additional standard for O3 and to adopt a NAAQS for PM2.5. Table 2-3 (previously presented) provides the NAAQS within the SCAB.
Mobile source emissions are regulated in accordance with Title II provisions. These provisions require the use of cleaner burning gasoline and other cleaner burning fuels such as methanol and natural gas. Automobile manufacturers are also required to reduce tailpipe emissions of hydrocarbons and NOX. NOX is a collective term that includes all forms of NOX which are emitted as byproducts of the combustion process.
2.6.2 CALIFORNIA REGULATIONS
CARB
The CARB, which became part of the CalEPA in 1991, is responsible for ensuring implementation of the California Clean Air Act (AB 2595), responding to the federal CAA, and for regulating emissions from consumer products and motor vehicles. AB 2595 mandates achievement of the maximum degree of emissions reductions possible from vehicular and other mobile sources in order to attain the state ambient air quality standards by the earliest practical date. The CARB established the CAAQS for all pollutants for which the federal government has NAAQS and, in addition, establishes standards for SO4, visibility, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and vinyl chloride (C2H3Cl). However, at this time, H2S and C2H3Cl are not measured at any monitoring stations in the SSAB because they are not considered to be a regional air quality problem. Generally, the CAAQS are more stringent than the NAAQS (15) (11).
Local air quality management districts, such as the SCAQMD, regulate air emissions from stationary sources such as commercial and industrial facilities. All air pollution control districts have been formally designated as attainment or non-attainment for each CAAQS.
Serious non-attainment areas are required to prepare Air Quality Management Plans (AQMP) that include specified emission reduction strategies in an effort to meet clean air goals. These plans are required to include:
Application of Best Available Retrofit Control Technology to existing sources; Developing control programs for area sources (e.g., architectural coatings and solvents) and indirect sources (e.g. motor vehicle use generated by residential and commercial development); A District permitting system designed to allow no net increase in emissions from any new or modified permitted sources of emissions;
Item Number: 2.
Desert Gateway Air Quality Impact Analysis
14748-02 AQ Report
22 Implementing reasonably available transportation control measures and assuring a substantial reduction in growth rate of vehicle trips and miles traveled;
Significant use of low emissions vehicles by fleet operators; Sufficient control strategies to achieve a 5% or more annual reduction in emissions or 15% or more in a period of three years for ROGs, NOX, CO and PM10. However, air basins may use alternative emission reduction strategy that achieves a reduction of less than 5% per year under certain circumstances.
State law makes CARB the lead agency for all purposes related to the SIP. Local air districts and other agencies prepare SIP elements and submit them to CARB for review and approval. CARB then forwards SIP revisions to the USEPA for approval and publication in the Federal Register.
The 2016 Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) and Coachella Valley PM10 State Implementation Plan constitute the SIP for the Riverside County portion of the SSAB. These air quality plans, promulgated by the SCAQMD, establish programs of rules and regulations directed at reducing air pollutant emissions and achieving state (California) and national ambient air quality standards. Pollutant control strategies are based on the latest scientific and technical information and planning assumptions, including the Southern California Association of Governments’ (SCAG’s) latest Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy, updated emission inventory methodologies for various source categories, and the latest growth forecasts.
The 2016 AQMP constitute the SIP O3 within the Riverside County portion of the SSAB. The 2016 AQMP contains strategies stated in the SIPs for achieving air quality standards on a regional basis.
TITLE 24 ENERGY EFFICIENCY STANDARDS AND CALIFORNIA GREEN BUILDING STANDARDS California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 24 Part 6: The California Energy Code was first adopted in 1978 in response to a legislative mandate to reduce California’s energy consumption.
The standards are updated periodically to allow consideration and possible incorporation of new energy efficient technologies and methods. CCR, Title 24, Part 11: California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen) is a comprehensive and uniform regulatory code for all residential, commercial, and school buildings that went in effect on August 1, 2009, and is administered by the California Building Standards Commission.
CALGreen is updated on a regular basis, with the most recent approved update consisting of the 2022 California Green Building Code Standards that will be effective on January 1, 2023. The CEC anticipates that the 2022 energy code will provide $1.5 billion in consumer benefits and reduce GHG emissions by 10 million metric tons (16). The Project would be required to comply with the applicable standards in place at the time building permit document submittals are made. These require, among other items (17):
NONRESIDENTIAL MANDATORY MEASURES

2.6.3 AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT PLANNING
Currently, the NAAQS and CAAQS are exceeded in most parts of the SSAB. In response, the SCAQMD has adopted a series of AQMPs to meet the state and federal ambient air quality standards (18). The Coachella Valley PM10 State Implementation Plan (CVSIP) establishes additional controls needed to demonstrate expeditious attainment of the PM10 standards in the Coachella Valley, located in the Salton Sea Air Basin. This area which is under South Coast AQMD's jurisdiction has been designated as a serious non-attainment area for PM10. AQMPs are updated regularly in order to more effectively reduce emissions, accommodate growth, and to minimize any negative fiscal impacts of air pollution control on the economy. A detailed discussion on the AQMP and Project consistency with the AQMP is provided in Section 3.10.

26 3 PROJECT AIR QUALITY IMPACT
3.1 INTRODUCTION
The Project has been evaluated to determine if it will violate an air quality standard, contribute to an existing or projected air quality violation, or determine if it will result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of a criteria pollutant for which the SCAB is non-attainment under an applicable NAAQS and CAAQS. Additionally, the Project has been evaluated to determine consistency with the applicable AQMP, exposure of sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, and the impacts of odors. The significance of these potential impacts is described in the following section.
3.2 STANDARDS OF SIGNIFICANCE
The criteria used to determine the significance of potential Project-related air quality impacts are taken from the CEQA Guidelines (14 CCR §§15000, et seq.). Based on these thresholds, a project would result in a significant impact related to air quality if it would (1):
Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan.
Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is in non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard.
Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations.
Result in other emissions (such as those leading to odors) adversely affecting a substantial number of people.
The SCAQMD has also developed regional significance thresholds for other regulated pollutants, as summarized at Table 3-1 (19). The SCAQMD’s CEQA Air Quality Significance Thresholds (April 2019) indicate that any projects in the SSAB with daily emissions that exceed any of the indicated thresholds should be considered as having an individually and cumulatively significant air quality impact.

27 3.3 METHODOLOGY
3.3.1 CALEEMOD
Land uses such as the Project affect air quality through construction-source and operationalsource emissions.
In May 2022 California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA) in conjunction with other California air districts, including SCAQMD, released the latest version of CalEEMod version 2022.1. The purpose of this model is to calculate construction-source and operational-source criteria pollutant (VOCs, NOX, SOX, CO, PM10, and PM2.5) and GHG emissions from direct and indirect sources; and quantify applicable air quality and GHG reductions achieved from mitigation (20). Accordingly, the latest version of CalEEMod has been used for this Project to determine construction and operational air quality emissions. Output from the model runs for both construction and operational activity are provided in Appendices 3.1.
3.4 CONSTRUCTION EMISSIONS
3.4.1 CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES
Construction activities associated with the Project will result in emissions of VOCs, NOX, SOX, CO, PM10, and PM2.5. Construction related emissions are expected from the following construction activities:
• Site Preparation
• Grading
• Building Construction
• Paving
• Architectural Coating
Grading Activities
Dust is typically a major concern during grading activities. Because such emissions are not amenable to collection and discharge through a controlled source, they are called “fugitive emissions”. Fugitive dust emissions rates vary as a function of many parameters (soil silt, soil moisture, wind speed, area disturbed, number of vehicles, depth of disturbance or excavation, etc.). CalEEMod was utilized to calculate fugitive dust emissions resulting from this phase of activity. Based on information provided by the Project Applicant, the Project would require 655 cubic yards of import.
OFF-SITE UTILITY AND INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS
In addition, to support the Project development, there will be paving for off-site improvements associated with roadway construction and utility installation of the Project site. It is expected that the off-site construction activities would not take place at one location for the entire duration of construction. Impacts associated with these activities are not expected to exceed the emissions identified for Project-related construction activities since the off-site construction Item Number: 2.
Desert Gateway Air Quality Impact Analysis
14748-02 AQ Report
28 areas would have physical constraints on the amount of daily activity that could occur. The physical constraints would limit the amount of construction equipment that could be used and any off-site and utility infrastructure construction would not use equipment totals that would exceed the equipment totals on Table 3-4. As such, no impacts beyond what has already been identified in this report are expected to occur.
ON-ROAD TRIPS
Construction generates on-road vehicle emissions from vehicle usage for workers and vendors commuting to and from the site. The number of workers and vendor trips are presented below in Table 3-2. It should be noted that for Vendor Trips, specifically, CalEEMod only assigns Vendor Trips to the Building Construction phase. Vendor trips would likely occur during all phases of construction. As such, the CalEEMod defaults for Vendor Trips have been adjusted based on a ratio of the total vendor trips to the number of days of each subphase of activity.

3.4.2 CONSTRUCTION DURATION
For purposes of analysis, construction of the Project is expected to last approximately 16 months, commencing in January 2023 and being completed in December 2024. The construction schedule utilized in the analysis, shown in Table 3-3, represents a “worst-case” analysis scenario should construction occur any time after the respective dates since emission factors for construction decrease as time passes and the analysis year increases due to emission regulations becoming more stringent1. The duration of construction activity and associated equipment was based on information provided by the Project Applicant and represents a reasonable approximation of the expected construction fleet as required per CEQA Guidelines (21).
3.4.3 CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT
A summary of construction equipment by phase is provided at Table 3-4. The equipment list is generally based on CalEEMod default parameters and confirmed with the Project Applicant, with the exception of the equipment needed for building construction which was doubled to account for the reduction in building construction schedule. Consistent with industry standards and typical construction practices, each piece of equipment listed in Table 3-4 will operate up to a 1 As shown in the CalEEMod User’s Guide Version 2022.1, Section 4.3 “Off-Road Equipment” as the analysis year increases, emission factors for the same equipment pieces decrease due to the natural turnover of older equipment being replaced by newer less polluting equipment and new regulatory requirements.

3.5 OPERATIONAL EMISSIONS
Operational activities associated with the proposed Project will result in emissions of VOCs, NOX, SOX, CO, PM10, and PM2.5. Operational emissions would be expected from the following primary sources:
• Area Source Emissions
• Energy Source Emissions
• Mobile Source Emissions
• On-Site Cargo Handling Equipment Emissions
3.5.1 AREA SOURCE EMISSIONS
ARCHITECTURAL COATINGS
Over a period of time the buildings that are part of this Project will require maintenance and will therefore produce emissions resulting from the evaporation of solvents contained in paints, varnishes, primers, and other surface coatings. The emissions associated with architectural coatings were calculated using CalEEMod.
CONSUMER PRODUCTS
Consumer products include, but are not limited to detergents, cleaning compounds, polishes, personal care products, and lawn and garden products. Many of these products contain organic compounds which when released in the atmosphere can react to form ozone and other photochemically reactive pollutants. The emissions associated with use of consumer products were calculated based on defaults provided within CalEEMod.

32 LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE EQUIPMENT
Landscape maintenance equipment would generate emissions from fuel combustion and evaporation of unburned fuel. Equipment in this category would include lawnmowers, shedders/grinders, blowers, trimmers, chain saws, and hedge trimmers used to maintain the landscaping of the Project. The emissions associated with landscape maintenance equipment were calculated based on assumptions provided in CalEEMod.
3.5.2 ENERGY SOURCE EMISSIONS
COMBUSTION EMISSIONS ASSOCIATED WITH NATURAL GAS AND ELECTRICITY Electricity and natural gas are used by almost every project. Criteria pollutant emissions are emitted through the generation of electricity and consumption of natural gas. However, because electrical generating facilities for the Project area are located either outside the region (state) or offset through the use of pollution credits (RECLAIM) for generation within the SCAB, criteria pollutant emissions from offsite generation of electricity is generally excluded from the evaluation of significance and only natural gas use is considered. The emissions associated with natural gas use were calculated using CalEEMod.
3.5.3 MOBILE SOURCE EMISSIONS
The Project related operational air quality emissions derive primarily from vehicle trips generated by the Project, including employee trips to and from the site and truck trips associated with the proposed uses. Trip characteristics available from the Desert Gateway Traffic Analysis were utilized in this analysis (22). Per the Desert Gateway Traffic Analysis, the proposed Project expected to generate approximately 6,378 total trips per day which include 5,976 passenger car trips per day and 402 truck trips per day.
APPROACH FOR ANALYSIS OF THE PROJECT
To determine emissions from passenger car vehicles, the CalEEMod defaults were utilized for trip length and trip purpose for the proposed industrial land uses. For the proposed industrial uses, it is important to note that although the Desert Gateway Traffic Analysis does not breakdown passenger cars by type, this analysis assumes that passenger cars include Light-Duty-Auto vehicles (LDA), Light-Duty-Trucks (LDT12 & LDT23
), Medium-Duty-Vehicles (MDV), and
Motorcycles (MCY) vehicle types. In order to account for emissions generated by passenger cars, the fleet mix in Table 3-7 was utilized.
2 Vehicles under the LDT1 category have a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of less than 6,000 lbs. and equivalent test weight (ETW) of less than or equal to 3,750 lbs.
3 Vehicles under the LDT2 category have a GVWR of less than 6,000 lbs. and ETW between 3,751 lbs. and 5,750 lbs.

To determine emissions from trucks for the proposed industrial uses, the analysis incorporated the SCAQMD recommended truck trip length of 14.2 miles for 2-axle and 3-axle (LHDT1, LHDT2, and MHDT) trucks and 40 miles for 4+-axle (HHDT) trucks and weighting the average trip lengths using traffic trip percentages taken from the Desert Gateway Traffic Analysis. The trip length function for the proposed industrial building use has been revised to 34.40 miles, with an assumption of 100% primary trips for the proposed industrial land uses. In order to be consistent with the Desert Gateway Traffic Analysis, trucks are broken down by truck type. The truck fleet mix is estimated by rationing the trip rates for each truck type based on information provided in the Desert Gateway Traffic Analysis. Heavy trucks are broken down by truck type (or axle type) and are categorized as either Light-Heavy-Duty Trucks (LHDT14 & LHDT2 5)/2-axle, MediumHeavy-Duty Trucks (MHD)/3-axle, and Heavy-Heavy-Duty Trucks (HHD)/4+-axle.

35 3.6 LOCALIZED SIGNIFICANCE
3.6.1 BACKGROUND ON LOCALIZED SIGNIFICANCE THRESHOLD (LST)DEVELOPMENT The analysis makes use of methodology included in the SCAQMD Final Localized Significance Threshold Methodology (LST Methodology) (23). The SCAQMD has established that impacts to air quality are significant if there is a potential to contribute or cause localized exceedances of the NAAQS and CAAQS. Collectively, these are referred to as LSTs.
The SCAQMD established LSTs in response to the SCAQMD Governing Board’s Environmental Justice Initiative I-47
. LSTs represent the maximum emissions from a project that will not cause or contribute to an exceedance of the most stringent applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard at the nearest residence or sensitive receptor. The SCAQMD states that lead agencies can use the LSTs as another indicator of significance in its air quality impact analyses.
LSTs were developed in response to environmental justice and health concerns raised by the public regarding exposure of individuals to criteria pollutants in local communities. To address the issue of localized significance, the SCAQMD adopted LSTs that show whether a project would cause or contribute to localized air quality impacts and thereby cause or contribute to potential localized adverse health effects. The analysis makes use of methodology included in the LST Methodology (24).
3.6.2 APPLICABILITY OF LSTS FOR THE PROJECT
For this Project, the appropriate SRA for the LST analysis is the SCAQMD Coachella Valley 1 (SRA 30). LSTs apply to CO, NO2, PM10, and PM2.5. The SCAQMD produced look-up tables for projects less than or equal to 5 acres in size.
In order to determine the appropriate methodology for determining localized impacts that could occur as a result of Project-related construction, the following process is undertaken:
CalEEMod is utilized to determine the maximum daily on-site emissions that will occur during construction activity.
The SCAQMD’s Fact Sheet for Applying CalEEMod to Localized Significance Thresholds and CalEEMod User’s Guide Appendix A: Calculation Details for CalEEMod is used to determine the maximum site acreage that is actively disturbed based on the construction equipment fleet and equipment hours as estimated in CalEEMod (25) (26).
If the total acreage disturbed is less than or equal to five acres per day, then the SCAQMD’s screening look-up tables are utilized to determine if a Project has the potential to result in a significant impact. The look-up tables establish a maximum daily emissions threshold in lbs/day that can be compared to CalEEMod outputs.
If the total acreage disturbed is greater than five acres per day, then LST impacts are appropriately evaluated through dispersion modeling.
7 The purpose of SCAQMD’s Environmental Justice program is to ensure that everyone has the right to equal protection from air pollution and fair access to the decision-making process that works to improve the quality of air within their communities. Further, the SCAQMD defines Environmental Justice as “…equitable environmental policymaking and enforcement to protect the health of all residents, regardless of age, culture, ethnicity, gender, race, socioeconomic status, or geographic location, from the health effects of air pollution.” Item Number: 2.

36 The LST Methodology presents mass emission rates for each SRA, project sizes of 1, 2, and 5 acres, and nearest receptor distances of 25, 50, 100, 200, and 500 meters. For project sizes between the values given, or with receptors at distances between the given receptors, the methodology uses linear interpolation to determine the thresholds.
3.6.3 EMISSIONS CONSIDERED
SCAQMD’s LST Methodology clearly states that “off-site mobile emissions from the Project should not be included in the emissions compared to LSTs (23).” Therefore, for purposes of the construction LST analysis, only emissions included in the CalEEMod “on-site” emissions outputs were considered.
3.6.4 MAXIMUM DAILY DISTURBED-ACREAGE
The “acres disturbed” for analytical purposes are based on specific equipment type for each subcategory of construction activity and the estimated maximum area a given piece of equipment can pass over in an 8-hour workday (as shown on Table 3-9). The equipment-specific grading rates are summarized in the SCAQMD’s Fact Sheet for Applying CalEEMod to Localized Significance Thresholds and CalEEMod User’s Guide Appendix C: Emission Calculation Details for CalEEMod (25) (27). It The disturbed area per day is representative of a piece of equipment making multiple passes over the same land area. In other words, one Rubber Tired Dozer can make multiple passes over the same land area totaling 0.5 acres in a given 8-hour day. Based on Table 3-10, the Project’s construction activities could actively disturb approximately 3.5 acres per day during site preparation and 4 acres per day during grading activities.

3.6.4 RECEPTORS
As previously stated, LSTs represent the maximum emissions from a project that would not cause or contribute to an exceedance of the most stringent applicable NAAQS and CAAQS at the nearest residence or sensitive receptor. Receptor locations are off-site locations where individuals may be exposed to emissions from Project activities.

37 Some people are especially sensitive to air pollution and are given special consideration when evaluating air quality impacts from projects. These groups of people include children, the elderly, and individuals with pre-existing respiratory or cardiovascular illness. Structures that house these persons or places where they gather are defined as “sensitive receptors”. These structures typically include uses such as residences, hotels, and hospitals where an individual can remain for 24 hours. Consistent with the LST Methodology, the nearest land use where an individual could remain for 24 hours to the Project site has been used to determine construction and operational air quality impacts for emissions of PM10 and PM2.5, since PM10 and PM2.5 thresholds are based on a 24-hour averaging time8.
LSTs apply, even for non-sensitive land uses, consistent with LST Methodology and SCAQMD guidance. Per the LST Methodology, commercial, educational, and industrial facilities are not included in the definition of sensitive receptor because employees and patrons do not typically remain onsite for a full 24 hours but are typically onsite for 8 hours or less. However, LST Methodology explicitly states that “LSTs based on shorter averaging periods, such as the NO2 and CO LSTs, could also be applied to receptors such as industrial or commercial facilities since it is reasonable to assume that a worker at these sites could be present for periods of one to eight hours (28).” Therefore, any adjacent land use where an individual could remain for 1 or 8-hours, that is located at a closer distance to the Project site than the receptor used for PM10 and PM2.5 analysis, must be considered to determine construction and operational LST air impacts for emissions of NO2 and CO since these pollutants have an averaging time of 1 and 8-hours.
RECEPTORS
Receptors relative to the Project area are described below and shown on Exhibit 3-A. Localized air quality impacts were evaluated at receptor land uses nearest the Project site.
R1: Location R1 represents the existing residence at 17851 Louise Street, approximately 3,677 feet north of the Project site.
R2: Location R2 represents the existing warehouse Black Lion Farms at 64125 19th Avenue, approximately 61 feet north of the Project site.

R4: Location R4 represents the existing corporate office Alaskalifornia INC at 64200 20th Avenue, approximately 68 feet east of the Project site.
The SCAQMD recommends that the nearest sensitive receptor be considered when determining the Project’s potential to cause an individual a cumulatively significant impact. The nearest land use where an individual could remain for 24 hours to the Project site has been used to determine localized construction and operational air quality impacts for emissions of PM10 and PM2.5 (since PM10 and PM2.5 thresholds are based on a 24-hour averaging time). The nearest receptor used for evaluation of localized impacts of PM10 and PM2.5 is represented by location R1 which 8 It should be noted that a school use is not included in SCAQMD’s specific definition of sensisitve land uses for LST purposes, since the LST definition includes locations where an individual has a likelihood to remain for 24-hours per day. School receptors are considered for localized emissions of NO2 and CO – which have averaging times of 1 and 8-hours as noted above.

As previously stated, and consistent with LST Methodology, the nearest commercial, educational, or industrial use to the Project site is used to determine construction and operational LST air impacts for emissions of NOX and CO as the averaging periods for these pollutants are shorter (8 hours or less) and it is reasonable to assumed that an individual could be present at these sites for periods of one to 8 hours. The nearest receptor used for evaluation of localized impacts of NOX and CO is represented by location R2 which represents the existing warehouse Black Lion Farms at 64125 19th Avenue, approximately 61 feet/25-meters north of the Project site.
It should be noted that the LST Methodology explicitly states that “It is possible that a project may have receptors closer than 25 meters. Projects with boundaries located closer than 25 meters to the nearest receptor should use the LSTs for receptors located at 25 meters (23).” As such a 25- meter receptor distance will be used for evaluation of localized NOX and CO.

3.7.1 LOCALIZED THRESHOLDS FOR CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY
Since the total acreage disturbed is 3.5 acre per day for site preparation and 4 acres per day grading activities, the SCAQMD’s screening look-up tables are utilized in determining impacts. It should be noted that since the look-up tables identify thresholds at only 1 acre, 2 acres, and 5 acres, linear regression has been utilized to determine localized significance thresholds.
Consistent with SCAQMD guidance, the thresholds presented in Table 3-11 were calculated by interpolating the threshold values for the Project’s disturbed acreage.

41 3.8 OPERATIONAL-SOURCE EMISSIONS LST ANALYSIS
The Project is located on an approximately 64.91-acre parcel. As noted previously, the LST Methodology provides look-up tables for sites with an area with daily disturbance of 5 acres or less. For projects that exceed 5 acres, the 5-acre LST look-up tables can be used as a screening tool to determine whether pollutants require additional detailed analysis. This approach is conservative as it assumes that all on-site emissions associated with the project would occur within a concentrated 5-acre area. This screening method would therefore over-predict potential localized impacts, because by assuming that on-site operational activities are occurring over a smaller area, the resulting concentrations of air pollutants are more highly concentrated once they reach the smaller site boundary than they would be for activities if they were spread out over a larger surface area. On a larger site, the same amount of air pollutants generated would disperse over a larger surface area and would result in a lower concentration once emissions reach the project-site boundary. As such, LSTs for a 5-acre site during operations are used as a screening tool to determine if further detailed analysis is required.
The LST analysis generally includes on-site sources (area, energy, mobile, and on-site cargo handling equipment – are previously discussed in Section 3.5 of this report). However, it should be noted that the CalEEMod outputs do not separate on-site and off-site emissions from mobile sources. As such, in an effort to establish a maximum potential impact scenario for analytic purposes, the emissions shown on Table 3-13 represent all on-site Project-related stationary (area) sources mobile sources. It should be noted that the longest on-site distance is roughly 0.48 miles for both trucks and passenger cars. As such, a separate CalEEMod run for operational LSTs has been prepared which accounts for the 0.48-mile on-site travel distance. Outputs from the model runs for operational LSTs are provided in Attachment A Modeling based on these assumptions demonstrates that even within broad encompassing parameters, Project operational-source emissions would not exceed applicable LSTs.

3.9 CO“HOT SPOT” ANALYSIS
As discussed below, the Project would not result in potentially adverse CO concentrations or “hot spots.” Further, detailed modeling of Project-specific CO “hot spots” is not needed to reach this conclusion. An adverse CO concentration, known as a “hot spot”, would occur if an exceedance of the state one-hour standard of 20 ppm or the eight-hour standard of 9 ppm were to occur. At the time of the SCAQMD’s CEQA Air Quality Handbook (1993) (1993 CEQA Handbook), the SCAB was designated nonattainment under the CAAQS and NAAQS for CO (29).
It has long been recognized that CO hotspots are caused by vehicular emissions, primarily when idling at congested intersections. In response, vehicle emissions standards have become increasingly stringent in the last twenty years. Currently, the allowable CO emissions standard in California is a maximum of 3.4 grams/mile for passenger cars (there are requirements for certain vehicles that are more stringent). With the turnover of older vehicles, introduction of cleaner fuels, and implementation of increasingly sophisticated and efficient emissions control technologies, CO concentration in the SCAB is now designated as attainment, as previously noted in Table 2-3.
To establish a more accurate record of baseline CO concentrations affecting the SCAB, a CO “hot spot” analysis was conducted in 2003 for four busy intersections in Los Angeles at the peak morning and afternoon time periods. This “hot spot” analysis did not predict any violation of CO standards, as shown on Table 3-15.

Source: 2003 AQMP, Appendix V: Modeling and Attainment Demonstrations Notes: Federal 1-hour standard is 35 ppm and the deferral 8-hour standard is 9.0 ppm.
Based on the SCAQMD's 2003 Air Quality Management Plan (2003 AQMP) and the 1992 Federal Attainment Plan for Carbon Monoxide (1992 CO Plan), peak CO concentrations in the SCAB were a result of unusual meteorological and topographical conditions and not a result of traffic volumes and congestion at a particular intersection. As evidence of this, for example, 9.3 ppm 8- hour CO concentration measured at the Long Beach Boulevard and Imperial Highway intersection (highest CO generating intersection within the “hot spot” analysis), only 0.7 ppm was attributable to the traffic volumes and congestion at this intersection; the remaining 8.6 ppm were due to the ambient air measurements at the time the 2003 AQMP was prepared (30). In contrast, the ambient 8-hour CO concentration within the Project study area is estimated at 0.8 ppm—0.5 ppm. Therefore, even if the traffic volumes for the Project were double or even triple of the traffic volumes generated at the Long Beach Boulevard and Imperial Highway intersection, coupled with the on-going improvements in ambient air quality, the Project would not be capable of resulting in a CO “hot spot” at any study area intersections.
Similar considerations are also employed by other Air Districts when evaluating potential CO concentration impacts. More specifically, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) concludes that under existing and future vehicle emission rates, a given project would have to increase traffic volumes at a single intersection by more than 44,000 vehicles per hour (vph) —or 24,000 vph where vertical and/or horizontal air does not mix—in order to generate a significant CO impact (31).
Traffic volumes generating the CO concentrations for the “hot spot” analysis is shown on Table 3-16. The busiest intersection evaluated was that at Wilshire Boulevard and Veteran Ave., which has a daily traffic volume of approximately 100,000 vehicles per day and AM/PM traffic volumes of 8,062 vph and 7,719 vph respectively (32). The 2003 AQMP estimated that the 1-hour concentration for this intersection was 4.6 ppm; this indicates that, should the daily traffic volume increase four times to 400,000 vehicles per day, CO concentrations (4.6 ppm x 4= 18.4 ppm) would still not likely exceed the most stringent 1-hour CO standard (20.0 ppm)9 .

As shown on Table 3-17, the highest trips on a segment of road for the proposed Project during AM and PM traffic is 2,627vph and 2,928 vph, respectively, on Indian Canyon Dr. and 19th Av. (22). As such, Project-related traffic volumes are less than the traffic volumes identified in the 2003 AQMP. The Project considered herein would not produce the volume of traffic required to generate a CO “hot spot” either in the context of the 2003 Los Angeles hot spot study or based on representative BAAQMD CO threshold considerations. Therefore, CO “hot spots” are not an environmental impact of concern for the Project. Localized air quality impacts related to mobilesource emissions would therefore be less than significant.

3.10 AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT PLANNING
The Project site is located within the SSAB and is subject to SCAQMD’s 2016 AQMP and the 2003 CV PM10 SIP. The SCAQMD has jurisdiction over an approximately 10,743 square-mile area consisting of the four-county Basin and the Los Angeles County and Riverside County portions of what use to be referred to as the Southeast Desert Air Basin. In these areas, the SCAQMD is principally responsible for air pollution control, and works directly with the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), county transportation commissions, local governments, as well as state and federal agencies to reduce emissions from stationary, mobile, and indirect sources to meet state and federal ambient air quality standards.
Currently, these state and federal air quality standards are exceeded in most parts of the SSAB.
In response, the SCAQMD has adopted a series of AQMPs to meet the state and federal ambient air quality standards. AQMPs are updated regularly in order to more effectively reduce emissions, Item Number: 2.
Desert Gateway Air Quality Impact Analysis
14748-02 AQ Report
45 accommodate growth, and to minimize any negative fiscal impacts of air pollution control on the economy.
In March 2017, the SCAQMD released the Final 2016 AQMP (2016 AQMP). The 2016 AQMP continues to evaluate current integrated strategies and control measures to meet the NAAQS, as well as explore new and innovative methods to reach its goals. Some of these approaches include utilizing incentive programs, recognizing existing co-benefit programs from other sectors, and developing a strategy with fair-share reductions at the federal, state, and local levels (33).
SCAG adopted the 2020-2045 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (2020-2045 RTP/SCS), a planning document that supports the integration of land use and transportation to help the region meet the federal metropolitan planning organization (MPO) requirements under the Sustainable communities and Climate Protection Act. The proposed Project would be developed in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations contained in those plans, because the Single Family Detached land use was included in the SCAG analysis.
Criteria for determining consistency with the AQMP are defined in Chapter 12, Section 12.2 and Section 12.3 of the 1993 CEQA Handbook (34). These indicators are discussed below:
3.10.1 CONSISTENCY CRITERION NO. 1
The proposed Project will not result in an increase in the frequency or severity of existing air quality violations or cause or contribute to new violations or delay the timely attainment of air quality standards or the interim emissions reductions specified in the AQMP.
The violations that Consistency Criterion No. 1 refers to are the CAAQS and NAAQS. CAAQS and NAAQS violations would occur if regional or localized significance thresholds were exceeded.
Construction Impacts – Consistency Criterion 1
Consistency Criterion No. 1 refers to violations of the CAAQS and NAAQS. CAAQS and NAAQS violations would occur if LSTs or regional significance thresholds were exceeded. As evaluated, the Project’s regional and localized construction-source emissions would not exceed applicable regional significance threshold and LST thresholds. As such, a less than significant impact is expected.
Operational Impacts – Consistency Criterion 1
As evaluated, the Project would not exceed the applicable regional and localized significance thresholds for operational activity. Therefore, the Project would not conflict with the AQMP according to this criterion.
On the basis of the preceding discussion, the Project is determined to be consistent with the first criterion.
3.10.2 CONSISTENCY CRITERION NO. 2
The Project will not exceed the assumptions in the AQMP based on the years of Project buildout phase.
Item Number: 2.
Desert Gateway Air Quality Impact Analysis
14748-02 AQ Report
46 The 2016 AQMP demonstrates that the applicable ambient air quality standards can be achieved within the timeframes required under federal law. Growth projections from local general plans adopted by cities in the district are provided to the SCAG, which develops regional growth forecasts, which are then used to develop future air quality forecasts for the AQMP. Development consistent with the growth projections in City of Desert Hot Springs General Plan is considered to be consistent with the AQMP.
Construction Impacts – Consistency Criterion 2
Peak day emissions generated by construction activities are largely independent of land use assignments, but rather are a function of development scope and maximum area of disturbance.
Irrespective of the site’s land use designation, development of the site to its maximum potential would likely occur, with disturbance of the entire site occurring during construction activities.
Operational Impacts – Consistency Criterion 2
The Project is within the Desert Harvest Specific Plan and the current General Plan designations on the property are Industrial (I). Industrial (I) land uses allow for a maximum of 0.60 FAR and are appropriate for light industrial, manufacturing and indoor cultivation uses housed in multi-tenant, low-scale developments. Research and development, professions offices, industrial parks, and business uses are also allowed, as well as large warehouses and distribution facilities, which are encouraged to be near freeways, freeway access routes and away or buffered from any residential uses. In addition, any supporting commercial retail or service uses are allowed. (35).
The Project consist of a distribution center (approximately 1,059,240 square feet), 2 commercial areas (total of 42,000 square feet), and a 150-room hotel sf, which is consistent with the proposed Industrial designation and therefore, the Project does not propose or require amendment of the site’s underlying land use designation.
On the basis of the preceding discussion, the Project is determined to be consistent with the second criterion.
AQMP CONSISTENCY CONCLUSION
The Project would not have the potential to result in or cause NAAQS or CAAQS violations.
Additionally, Project construction and operational-source emissions would not exceed the regional or localized significance thresholds. The Project is therefore considered to be consistent with the AQMP.
3.11 POTENTIAL IMPACTS TO SENSITIVE RECEPTORS
The potential impact of Project-generated air pollutant emissions at sensitive receptors has also been considered. Sensitive receptors can include uses such as long-term health care facilities, rehabilitation centers, and retirement homes. Residences, schools, playgrounds, childcare centers, and athletic facilities can also be considered as sensitive receptors.
Item Number: 2.
Desert Gateway Air Quality Impact Analysis
14748-02 AQ Report
47 Results of the LST analysis indicate that, the Project would not exceed the SCAQMD localized significance thresholds during construction. Therefore, sensitive receptors would not be exposed to substantial pollutant concentrations during Project construction.
Results of the LST analysis indicate that the Project would not exceed the SCAQMD localized significance thresholds during operational activity. Further Project traffic would not create or result in a CO “hotspot.” Therefore, sensitive receptors would not be exposed to substantial pollutant concentrations as the result of Project operations.
3.12 ODORS
The potential for the Project to generate objectionable odors has also been considered. Land uses generally associated with odor complaints include:
• Agricultural uses (livestock and farming)
• Wastewater treatment plants
• Food processing plants
• Chemical plants
• Composting operations
• Refineries
• Landfills
• Dairies
• Fiberglass molding facilities
The Project does not contain land uses typically associated with emitting objectionable odors.
Potential odor sources associated with the proposed Project may result from construction equipment exhaust and the application of asphalt and architectural coatings during construction activities and the temporary storage of typical solid waste (refuse) associated with the proposed Project’s (long-term operational) uses. Standard construction requirements would minimize odor impacts from construction. The construction odor emissions would be temporary, shortterm, and intermittent in nature and would cease upon completion of the respective phase of construction and is thus considered less than significant. It is expected that Project-generated refuse would be stored in covered containers and removed at regular intervals in compliance with the City’s solid waste regulations. The proposed Project would also be required to comply with SCAQMD Rule 402 to prevent occurrences of public nuisances. Therefore, odors associated with the proposed Project construction and operations would be less than significant and no mitigation is required (36).
3.13 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS
As previously shown in Table 2-3, the CAAQS designate the Project site as nonattainment for O3 PM10, and PM2.5 while the NAAQS designates the Project site as nonattainment for O3 and PM2.5.
Item Number: 2.
Desert Gateway Air Quality Impact Analysis
14748-02 AQ Report
48 The SCAQMD has published the White Paper on Potential Control Strategies to Address Cumulative Impactsfrom Air Pollution which addresses the cumulative impacts from air pollution (37). In this report the SCAQMD clearly states:
“…the AQMD [Air Quality Management District] uses the same significance thresholds for project specific and cumulative impacts for all environmental topics analyzed in an Environmental Assessment or EIR. The only case where the significance thresholds for project specific and cumulative impacts differ is the HI [Hazard Index] significance threshold for toxic air contaminant (TAC) emissions.
The project specific (project increment) significance threshold is HI > 1.0 while the cumulative (facility-wide) is HI > 3.0. It should be noted that the HI is only one of three TAC emission significance thresholds considered (when applicable) in a CEQA analysis. The other two are the maximum individual cancer risk (MICR) and the cancer burden, both of which use the same significance thresholds (MICR of 10 in 1 million and cancer burden of 0.5) for project specific and cumulative impacts.
Projects that exceed the project-specific significance thresholds are considered by the SCAQMD to be cumulatively considerable. This is the reason project-specific and cumulative significance thresholds are the same. Conversely, projects that do not exceed the project-specific thresholds are generally not considered to be cumulatively significant.”
Therefore, this analysis assumes that individual projects that do not generate operational or construction emissions that exceed the SCAQMD’s recommended daily thresholds for projectspecific impacts would also not cause a cumulatively considerable increase in emissions for those pollutants for which the Basin is in nonattainment, and, therefore, would not be considered to have a significant, adverse air quality impact. Alternatively, individual project-related construction and operational emissions that exceed SCAQMD thresholds for project-specific impacts would be considered cumulatively considerable.
CONSTRUCTION IMPACTS
The Project‐specific evaluation of emissions presented in the preceding analysis demonstrates that Project construction-source air pollutant emissions would not result in exceedances of regional thresholds after implementation of MM AQ-1. Therefore, Project construction-source emissions would be considered less than significant on a project-specific and cumulative basis.
OPERATIONAL IMPACTS
The Project‐specific evaluation of emissions presented in the preceding analysis demonstrates that proposed Project operational-source air pollutant emissions would not result in exceedances of regional thresholds. Therefore, proposed Project operational-source emissions would be considered less than significant on a project-specific and cumulative basis.

APPENDIX C
MAPS AND TABLES OF AREA DESIGNATIONS FOR
STATE AND NATIONAL AMBIENT AIR QUALITY STANDARDS
This attachment fulfills the requirement of Health and Safety Code section 40718 for CARB to publish maps that identify areas where one or more violations of any State ambient air quality standard (State standard) or national ambient air quality standard (national standard) have been measured. The national standards are those promulgated under section 109 of the federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7409).
This attachment is divided into three parts. The first part comprises a table showing the levels, averaging times, and measurement methods for each of the State and national standards. This is followed by a section containing maps and tables showing the area designations for each pollutant for which there is a State standard in the California Code of Regulations, title 17, section 70200. The last section contains maps and tables showing the most current area designations for the national standards.

1. California standards for ozone, carbon monoxide (except 8-hour Lake Tahoe), sulfur dioxide (1- and 24-hour), nitrogen dioxide, and particulate matter (PM10, PM2.5, and visibility reducing particles), are values that are not to be exceeded. All others are not to be equaled or exceeded. California ambient air quality standards are listed in the Table of Standards in Section 70200 of Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations.
2. National standards (other than ozone, particulate matter, and those based on annual arithmetic mean) are not to be exceeded more than once a year. The ozone standard is attained when the fourth highest 8-hour concentration measured at each site in a year, averaged over three years, is equal to or less than the standard. For PM10, the 24-hour standard is attained when the expected number of days per calendar year with a 24-hour average concentration above 150 μg/m3 is equal to or less than one. For PM2.5, the 24-hour standard is attained when 98 percent of the daily concentrations, averaged over three years, are equal to or less than the standard. Contact the U.S. EPA for further clarification and current national policies.
3. Concentration expressed first in units in which it was promulgated. Equivalent units given in parentheses are based upon a reference temperature of 25°C and a reference pressure of 760 torr. Most measurements of air quality are to be corrected to a reference temperature of 25°C and a reference pressure of 760 torr; ppm in this table refers to ppm by volume, or micromoles of pollutant per mole of gas.
4. Any equivalent measurement method which can be shown to the satisfaction of the CARB to give equivalent results at or near the level of the air quality standard may be used.
5. National Primary Standards: The levels of air quality necessary, with an adequate margin of safety to protect the public health.
6. National Secondary Standards: The levels of air quality necessary to protect the public welfare from any known or anticipated adverse effects of a pollutant.
7. Reference method as described by the U.S. EPA. An “equivalent method” of measurement may be used but must have a “consistent relationship to the reference method” and must be approved by the U.S. EPA.
8. On October 1, 2015, the national 8-hour ozone primary and secondary standards were lowered from 0.075 to
0.070 ppm.
9. On December 14, 2012, the national annual PM2.5 primary standard was lowered from 15 μg/m3 to 12.0 μg/m3. The existing national 24-hour PM2.5 standards (primary and secondary) were retained at 35 μg/m3 , as was the annual
secondary standard of 15 μg/m3
. The existing 24-hour PM10 standards (primary and secondary) of 150 μg/m3 also were retained. The form of the annual primary and secondary standards is the annual mean, averaged over 3 years.
10. To attain the 1-hour national standard, the 3-year average of the annual 98th percentile of the 1-hour daily maximum concentrations at each site must not exceed 100 ppb. Note that the national 1-hour standard is in units of parts per billion (ppb). California standards are in units of parts per million (ppm). To directly compare the national 1-hour standard to the California standards the units can be converted from ppb to ppm. In this case, the national standard of 100 ppb is identical to 0.100 ppm.
11. On June 2, 2010, a new 1-hour SO2 standard was established and the existing 24-hour and annual primary standards were revoked. To attain the 1-hour national standard, the 3-year average of the annual 99th percentile of the 1-hour daily maximum concentrations at each site must not exceed 75 ppb. The 1971 SO2 national standards (24-hour and annual) remain in effect until one year after an area is designated for the 2010 standard, except that in areas designated nonattainment for the 1971 standards, the 1971 standards remain in effect until implementation plans to attain or maintain the 2010 standards are approved.
Note that the 1-hour national standard is in units of parts per billion (ppb). California standards are in units of parts per million (ppm). To directly compare the 1-hour national standard to the California standard the units can be converted to ppm. In this case, the national standard of 75 ppb is identical to 0.075 ppm.
12. The CARB has identified lead and vinyl chloride as 'toxic air contaminants' with no threshold level of exposure for adverse health effects determined. These actions allow for the implementation of control measures at levels below the ambient concentrations specified for these pollutants.
13. The national standard for lead was revised on October 15, 2008 to a rolling 3-month average. The 1978 lead standard (1.5 μg/m3
)as a quarterly average) remains in effect until one year after an area is designated for the 2008 standard, except that in areas designated nonattainment for the 1978 standard, the 1978 standard remains in effect until implementation plans to attain or maintain the 2008 standard are approved.
14. In 1989, the CARB converted both the general statewide 10-mile visibility standard and the Lake Tahoe 30-mile visibility standard to instrumental equivalents, which are "extinction of 0.23 per kilometer" and "extinction of 0.07 per kilometer" for the statewide and Lake Tahoe Air Basin standards, respectively.

Item Number: 2.
Area Designations for the State Ambient Air Quality Standards The following maps and tables show the area designations for each pollutant with a State standard set forth in the California Code of Regulations, title 17, section 60200. Each area is identified as attainment, nonattainment, nonattainment-transitional, or unclassified for each pollutant, as shown below:
Attainment A
Nonattainment N
Nonattainment-Transitional NA-T
Unclassified U
In general, CARB designates areas by air basin for pollutants with a regional impact and by county for pollutants with a more local impact. However, when there are areas within an air basin or county with distinctly different air quality deriving from sources and conditions not affecting the entire air basin or county, CARB may designate a smaller area. Generally, when boundaries of the designated area differ from the air basin or county boundaries, the description of the specific area is referenced at the bottom of the summary table.

Area Designations for the National Ambient Air Quality Standards The following maps and tables show the area designations for each pollutant with a national ambient air quality standard. Additional information about the federal area designations is available on the U.S. EPA website:
https://www.epa.gov/green-book
Over the last several years, U.S. EPA has been reviewing the levels of the various national standards. The agency has already promulgated new standard levels for some pollutants and is considering revising the levels for others. Information about the status of these reviews is available on the U.S. EPA website:
https://www.epa.gov/criteria-air-pollutants
Designation Categories
Suspended Particulate Matter (PM10). The U.S. EPA uses three categories to designate areas with respect to PM10:
• Attainment (A)
• Nonattainment (N)
• Unclassifiable (U)
Ozone, Fine Suspended Particulate Matter (PM2.5), Carbon Monoxide (CO), and Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2). The U.S. EPA uses two categories to designate areas with respect to these standards:
• Nonattainment (N)
• Unclassifiable/Attainment (U/A)
The national 1-hour ozone standard was revoked effective June 15, 2005, and the area designations map reflects the 2015 national 8-hour ozone standard of
0.070 ppm. Area designations were finalized on August 3, 2018.
On December 14, 2012, the U.S. EPA established a new national annual primary PM2.5 standard of 12.0 μg/m3. Area designations were finalized in December 2014. The current designation map reflects the most recently revised (2012) annual average standard of 12.0 μg/m3 as well as the 24-hour standard of 35 μg/m3, revised in 2006.
On January 22, 2010, the U.S. EPA established a new national 1-hour NO2 standard of 100 parts per billion (ppb) and retained the annual average standard of 53 ppb.
Designations for the primary NO2 standard became effective on February 29, 2012.
All areas of California meet this standard.
Sulfur Dioxide (SO2). The U.S. EPA uses three categories to designate areas with respect to the 24-hour and annual average sulfur dioxide standards. These designation categories are:
• Nonattainment (N),
• Unclassifiable (U), and
• Unclassifiable/Attainment (U/A).
On June 2, 2010, the U.S. EPA established a new primary 1-hour SO2 standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb). At the same time, U.S. EPA revoked the 24-hour and annual C-25
Item Number: 2.
average standards. Area designations for the 1-hour SO2 standard were finalized on December 21, 2017 and are reflected in the area designations map.
Lead (particulate). The U.S. EPA promulgated a new rolling 3-month average lead standard in October 2008 of 0.15 μg/m3. Designations were made for this standard in November 2010.
Designation Areas
From time to time, the boundaries of the California air basins have been changed to facilitate the planning process. CARB generally initiates these changes, and they are not always reflected in the U.S. EPA’s area designations. For purposes of consistency, the maps in this attachment reflect area designation boundaries and nomenclature as promulgated by the U.S. EPA. In some cases, these may not be the same as those adopted by CARB. For example, the national area designations reflect the former Southeast Desert Air Basin. In accordance with Health and Safety Code section 39606.1, CARB redefined this area in 1996 to be the Mojave Desert Air Basin and Salton Sea Air Basin. The definitions and boundaries for all areas designated for the national standards can be found in Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Chapter I, Subchapter C, Part 81.305. They are available on the web at:
