CITY COUNCIL MEETING - AUGUST 6, 2024 - WRITTEN PUBLIC COMMENTS BY RESIDENT ARLENE GOTSHALK

MATTERS NOT ON THE AGENDA - EMERGENCY RESPONSE WEBSITE AND DESIGNATED SPOKESPERSON C:\Users\mradeva\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\TD4G8EXV\Emergency response website - public speak at council meeting.docx
RE: EMERGENCY RESPONSE WEBSITE & DESIGNATED SPOKESPERSON One of the many challenges of disaster management is making sure that centralized information is available in a timely manner.

Currently, there is a lot of mixed information circulating in our community through different delivery systems. Each person has to find these sources of information. There is City Email Alerts along with local groups such as Next Door, La Quinta News, etc.. The result is conflicting, limited, and outdated information.. You have to:
 Know that these avenues of information exist!
 Find them
 Sign up for each one of them
 Hope the information is correct.

This maze of information is confusing, time-consuming, and difficult to navigate. And not all information is useful.

Rural Health Information Hub states: “The primary audience for dissemination of disaster information is typically the local community affected by the emergency or disaster event. Disseminating information centrally ensures transparency with the community. Central information keeps individuals and organizations informed of preparedness, response, and recovery efforts.”
MY RECOMMENDATIONS ARE:

1. CREATE ACCESS TO A CENTRAL WEBSITE. A one-stop shop with real-time natural disaster information. The website would include time-stamped updates and reliable links with warnings about current, real-time dangers/damages such as:
 Evacuation orders
 Rising river levels
 Power outages
 Available resources (including reliable social media accounts)  Volunteer requests
 Whether water is safe to drink
 Which roads are safe to be on
C:\Users\mradeva\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\TD4G8EXV\Emergency response website - public speak at council meeting.docx
For example: Preparation and Response information during Tropical Storm Hilary could not be found in one location and was not always accurate or updated which led to fear, chaos, confusion, congestion, and potential danger.

When supplies of sand and sandbags ran out at fire stations, nobody seems to know if or when the supplies were going to be replenished – not the people manning the fire stations or the citizens looking for sand and sandbags. People were scared and angry and raced from one fire station to another wondering if they would be able to find some supplies. Different information was circulating about where to find supplies and a significant time lag occurred before information became available. A centrally posted update of available supplies would have eliminated misunderstandings and frustration.

It cuts through the clutter of all the information surrounding the emergency and offers time-saving solutions, rock-solid advice.

2. DESIGNATE A SPOKESPERSON to present daily live updates like the coordinated briefings made by Cal Fire Spokesperson during disasters. The briefings transcripts could be broadcasted live by the City Spokesperson at the same time (or times) every day on the radio, TV and on City Disaster website, etc. This type of communication and transparency would create a shared understanding and reduce misinformation. It builds trust and offers hope as the chaos unfolds. The Spokesperson could take questions during these live broadcasts and post answers in real-time on the website. Questions could be emailed in and answers could be posted.

By adopting a "simple" approach to complex problems and concentrating on which information is most useful, we can achieve clarity of communication and improve immediate responses. A central website will help simplify information to help us take focused actions during pressing challenges.

Effective communication saves lives and is a critical component of emergency management. Having ACCESS TO A CENTRAL WEBSITE AND A DESIGNATED SPOKESPERSON will keep our community on the same page and unite us with trustworthy, real-time information.

I hope you and your team will create a CENTRAL WEBSITE AND DESIGNATE A SPOKESPERSON to make it more effective to help the people and the community we love.

Subject: City Council members - YouTube video links to Jefferson St Extension and also Avenue 62 dike Travertine hearing
Good day. I hope this will be helpful to you. I am attaching a YouTube link that shows a drive of one mile of the Jefferson Street Extension. The file below shows where the trip started. It is the one circle with a black border. The significant things I would like to point out is that it is pretty flat, it can be to the east more to get further away from the Quarry wall, and the road already is below the Quarry wall and could be graded even lower if need be. There is no dike to cross until you are far from the Quarry. The first dike is at the end of the one mile trip and it is significantly smaller. And far from everyone. The drive went from the one circle with black around it, to the other circle where it says 1.01. https://youtu.be/2UKPt9qFQU8

This second video is taken climbing up the Avenue 62 roadway to the top of the dike. Then you can see the irrigation ponds, back down Avenue 62, the duct tape that shows the bottom of the roadway which is 6 feet above the dike. Above the 6 foot mark, the vehicles (discounting motorcycles) can typically be 5 feet high to 13.5 feet hight. And of course you can see Trilogy residences. Keep in mind, where I am taking this video is below the 6 foot elevated roadway, https://youtu.be/oZqU9JnQb2s

CITY COUNCIL MEETING - AUGUST 6, 2024 - WRITTEN PUBLIC COMMENTS BY GRETCHEN GUTIERREZ CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF DVBA - PUBLIC HEARING ITEM NO. 2 - TRAVERTINE - LETTER IN SUPPORT OF THE PROJECT

1 From: John K. Miller <[email protected]>
Sent: Sunday, August 4, 2024 10:03 AM
To: Linda Evans; John Pena; Kathleen Fitzpatrick; Deborah McGarrey; Steve Sanchez; City Clerk Mail
Subject: Written Comments - John Miller, La Quinta, Travertine Development Dear Madam Mayor and Council Members,
I am John Miller, and I own 81455 Golden Poppy Way in Trilogy La Quinta. I have lived in La Quinta for over 24 years and am happy to call it my home. As a Realtor, I have represented over 1,300 clients over the past 21 years, most of whom chose Trilogy La Quinta for its remote, peaceful, and tranquil location backing up to the Santa Rosa Mountains.

I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed 1200-home Travertine development, particularly the planned primary arterial access routed through Avenue 62. As a resident and community advocate, I have several significant concerns about this development's adverse impacts on our area.

Firstly, the proposed bridge over the existing dike on Avenue 62 to facilitate access to Travertine will dramatically increase noise and traffic throughout our community. This surge in traffic will result in higher emissions and greenhouse gases, which is counterproductive to our collective efforts to reduce our environmental footprint and combat climate change. The influx of vehicles will contribute to air pollution, negatively impacting the health and well-being of current residents.

Moreover, the noise generated by the increased traffic, mainly from vehicles crossing the newly constructed bridge, will disrupt the tranquility of our neighborhood. The residents of Trilogy La Quinta chose this community for its peaceful environment, and introducing this development will undermine the quality of life we currently enjoy. The constant noise pollution will be a source of stress and discomfort for many residents, especially those closest to Avenue 62.

Another critical concern is the potential impact on the local wildlife, specifically the Bighorn sheep that inhabit this region. The construction and increased human activity will likely disturb their natural habitat, threatening survival. Protecting our local wildlife is essential, and the proposed development poses a significant risk to these animals.

Additionally, the infrastructure in our area may need to be equipped to handle the substantial increase in traffic and population density. The strain on local roads, public services, and amenities could lead to congestion and reduced service quality, further diminishing the living standards for current and future residents.

In conclusion, I strongly urge the city council to reconsider the access plan for the Travertine development. Routing the main arterial through Avenue 62 is not sustainable or community-friendly. I CITY COUNCIL MEETING - AUGUST 6, 2024 - WRITTEN PUBLIC COMMENTS BY RESIDENT JOHN MILLER PUBLIC HEARING ITEM NO. 2 - TRAVERTINE - OPPOSED TO THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 2 recommend exploring alternative access points that will minimize the environmental impact, preserve the peace of existing neighborhoods, and protect our local wildlife.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that the city council will take these concerns seriously and decide to prioritize the well-being of current residents and the environment.

Sincerely,
John K Miller

RE: City Council Public Hearing Agenda Item No. 2 -
Travertine Specific Plan Project, Draft & Final Environmental Impact Report [SCH 2018011023]
Dear Mayor Evans, Honorable Councilmembers and Ms. Flores, On behalf of the Western States Regional Council of Carpenters (“Western States Carpenters” or “WSRCC”), our firm is submitting these comments to the City of La Quinta (“City”) in connection August 6, 2024 City Council hearing regarding the Travertine Specific Plan Project (“Project”), as well as the Draft Environmental Impact Report (“DEIR”) and Final Environmental Impact Report (“FEIR”; collectively, “EIR”) associated therewith.

The Project includes development of a mix of uses including up to 1,200 dwelling units of varying residential product types and two community parks (east and west) on 378.8 acres; a 38.3-acre resort/spa facility with a 45,000-square-foot boutique hotel with a 175-seat restaurant, 97,500 square feet of resort villas, and 8,700 square feet of spa and wellness center, as well as yoga and tennis courts; a 46.2-acre resort/golf facility with a 5,500-square-foot golf academy, a 1,000-square-foot clubhouse, and 10,000-square-foot banquet restaurant (500-seat capacity).

The Western States Carpenters is a labor union representing over 90,000 union carpenters in 12 states, including California, and has a strong interest in well-ordered City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project
August 6, 2024

land use planning and in addressing the environmental impacts of development projects. Individual members of the Western States Carpenters live, work, and recreate in the City and surrounding communities and would be directly affected by the Project’s environmental impacts.

The Western States Carpenters expressly reserves the right to supplement these comments at or prior to hearings on the Project, and at any later hearing and proceeding related to this Project. Gov. Code, § 65009, subd. (b); Pub. Res. Code, § 21177, subd. (a); see Bakersfield Citizens for Local Control v. Bakersfield (2004) 124 Cal.App.4th 1184, 1199-1203; see also Galante Vineyards v. Monterey Water Dist. (1997) 60 Cal.App.4th 1109, 1121.

The Western States Carpenters incorporates by reference all comments raising issues regarding the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) submitted prior to certification of the EIR for the Project. See Citizens for Clean Energy v City of Woodland (2014) 225 Cal.App.4th 173, 191 (finding that any party who has objected to the project’s environmental documentation may assert any issue timely raised by other parties).

I. THE CITY’S FEIR FAILED TO RESPOND TO AND ADDRESS
WSRCC’S COMMENTS REGARDING PROJECT’S DEIR.

WSRCC has previously submitted written comments to the City concerning the Project’s DEIR and the deficiencies therein on May 28, 2024, and June 25, 2024.

Notwithstanding, the FEIR for the Project makes no mention of such comments and provides no response to them whatsoever, nor does it provide responses to any other written public comments concerning the DEIR that were received by the City after the close of the DEIR’s 45-day comment period. WSRCC’s prior comments also have not been included for the City Council’s consideration as part of the City’s Agenda Packet for the August 6, 2024, hearing on the Project (to which this correspondence is directed).

Moreover, the resolution adopted by the Planning Commission at its June 25, 2024 hearing on the Project included the Planning Commission’s recommendation to the City Council that the EIR for the Project be certified, but the Project’s FEIR was not even considered by Planning Commission on that date because the FEIR had yet to be released. This apparent procedural sidestep sits in stark contrast to the procedure followed by the City in connection with its recent certification of the EIR in the Coral Mountain Resort project (for which the City’s Planning Commission considered the City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project
August 6, 2024

Page 3 of 28 ends

FEIR and adopted a resolution recommending its certification to the City Council), as well as undermines California’s environmental review process and violates the CEQA.

The CEQA Guidelines require the Lead Agency on a project to prepare a FEIR prior to approving a project. (CEQA Guidelines § 15089(a) – “The Lead Agency shall prepare a final EIR before approving the project.”) The required contents of a FEIR are prescribed by CEQA Guidelines § 15132, which are as follows:
(a) The draft EIR or a revision of the draft.
(b) Comments and recommendations received on the draft EIR either verbatim or in summary.
(c) A list of persons, organizations, and public agencies commenting on the draft EIR.
(d) The responses of the Lead Agency to significant environmental points raised in the review and consultation process.
(e) Any other information added by the Lead Agency.

CEQA Guidelines § 15132.

Here, as it stands, and based on the public comments (from WSRCC and others) regarding the Project and its DEIR that the City received regarding significant environmental points on the Project, the City will have violated CEQA if it continues its failure to respond to said public comments prior to proceeding with certification of the Project’s EIR.

Thus, absent revision and recirculation of a proper and complete FEIR for the Project, no certification of the EIR can permissibly occur. The City must remedy this procedural deficiency, and the City Council should not proceed with adopting any resolutions pertaining to the Project until this CEQA violation is cured.

II. THE CITY SHOULD REQUIRE THE USE OF A LOCAL
WORKFORCE TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY’S ECONOMIC

DEVELOPMENT AND ENVIRONMENT
The City should require the Project to be built using a local workers who have graduated from a Joint Labor-Management Apprenticeship Program approved by the State of California, have at least as many hours of on-the-job experience in the applicable craft which would be required to graduate from such a state-approved apprenticeship training program, or who are registered apprentices in a state-approved apprenticeship training program.

Community benefits such as local hire can also be helpful to reduce environmental impacts and improve the positive economic impact of the Project. Local hire provisions requiring that a certain percentage of workers reside within 10 miles or less of the Project site can reduce the length of vendor trips, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and provide localized economic benefits. As environmental consultants Matt Hagemann and Paul E. Rosenfeld note:
[A]ny local hire requirement that results in a decreased worker trip length from the default value has the potential to result in a reduction of construction-related GHG emissions, though the significance of the reduction would vary based on the location and urbanization level of the project site.

March 8, 2021, SWAPE Letter to Mitchell M. Tsai re Local Hire Requirements and Considerations for Greenhouse Gas Modeling.

Workforce requirements promote the development of skilled trades that yield sustainable economic development. As the California Workforce Development Board and the University of California, Berkeley Center for Labor Research and Education concluded:
[L]abor should be considered an investment rather than a cost—and investments in growing, diversifying, and upskilling California’s workforce can positively affect returns on climate mitigation efforts. In other words, well-trained workers are key to delivering emissions reductions and moving California closer to its climate targets.1
Furthermore, workforce policies have significant environmental benefits given that they improve an area’s jobs-housing balance, decreasing the amount and length of job commutes and the associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In fact, on May 7, 2021, the South Coast Air Quality Management District found that that the “[u]se of a local state-certified apprenticeship program” can result in air pollutant reductions.2 1 California Workforce Development Board (2020) Putting California on the High Road: A Jobs and Climate Action Plan for 2030 at p. ii, available at https://laborcenter.berkeley.edu/ wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Putting-California-on-the-High-Road.pdf. 2 South Coast Air Quality Management District (May 7, 2021) Certify Final Environmental Assessment and Adopt Proposed Rule 2305 – Warehouse Indirect Source Rule – Warehouse Actions and Investments to Reduce Emissions Program, and Proposed Rule 316 – Fees for Rule 2305, Submit Rule 2305 for Inclusion Into the SIP, and Approve City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project
August 6, 2024

Page 5 of 28 ends

Locating jobs closer to residential areas can have significant environmental benefits.

As the California Planning Roundtable noted in 2008:

People who live and work in the same jurisdiction would be more likely to take transit, walk, or bicycle to work than residents of less balanced communities and their vehicle trips would be shorter. Benefits would include potential reductions in both vehicle miles traveled and vehicle hours traveled.3
Moreover, local hire mandates and skill-training are critical facets of a strategy to reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT). As planning experts Robert Cervero and Michael Duncan have noted, simply placing jobs near housing stock is insufficient to achieve VMT reductions given that the skill requirements of available local jobs must match those held by local residents.4 Some municipalities have even tied local hire and other workforce policies to local development permits to address transportation issues. Cervero and Duncan note that:

In nearly built-out Berkeley, CA, the approach to balancing jobs and housing is to create local jobs rather than to develop new housing. The city’s First Source program encourages businesses to hire local residents, especially for entry- and intermediate-level jobs, and sponsors vocational training to ensure residents are employment-ready. While the program is voluntary, some 300 businesses have used it to date, placing more than 3,000 city residents in local jobs since it was launched in 1986. When needed, these carrots are matched by sticks, since the city is not shy about negotiating corporate participation in First Source as a condition of approval for development permits.

Recently, the State of California verified its commitment towards workforce development through the Affordable Housing and High Road Jobs Act of 2022, Supporting Budget Actions, available at http://www.aqmd.gov/docs/defaultsource/Agendas/Governing-Board/2021/2021-May7-027.pdf?sfvrsn=10. 3 California Planning Roundtable (2008) Deconstructing Jobs-Housing Balance at p. 6, available at https://cproundtable.org/static/media/uploads/publications/cpr-jobshousing.pdf 4 Cervero, Robert and Duncan, Michael (2006) Which Reduces Vehicle Travel More: JobsHousing Balance or Retail-Housing Mixing? Journal of the American Planning Association 72 (4), 475-490, 482, available at http://reconnectingamerica.org/assets/Uploads/UTCT825.pdf.

otherwise known as Assembly Bill No. 2011 (“AB2011”). AB2011 amended the Planning and Zoning Law to allow ministerial, by-right approval for projects being built alongside commercial corridors that meet affordability and labor requirements.

The City should consider utilizing local workforce policies and requirements to benefit the local area economically and to mitigate greenhouse gas, improve air quality, and reduce transportation impacts.

III. THE CITY SHOULD IMPOSE TRAINING REQUIREMENTS FOR
THE PROJECT’S CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES TO PREVENT
COMMUNITY SPREAD OF COVID-19 AND OTHER INFECTIOUS

DISEASES
Construction work has been defined as a Lower to High-risk activity for COVID-19 spread by the Occupations Safety and Health Administration. Recently, several construction sites have been identified as sources of community spread of COVID19.5

The Western States Carpenters recommend that the City adopt additional requirements to mitigate public health risks from the Project’s construction activities.

The Western States Carpenters requests that the City require safe on-site construction work practices as well as training and certification for any construction workers on the Project Site.

In particular, based upon the Western States Carpenters’ experience with safe construction site work practices, the Western States Carpenters recommends that the City require that while construction activities are being conducted at the Project Site:

Construction Site Design:
• The Project Site will be limited to two controlled entry points.
• Entry points will have temperature screening technicians taking temperature readings when the entry point is open. 5 Santa Clara County Public Health (June 12, 2020) COVID-19 CASES AT

CONSTRUCTION SITES HIGHLIGHT NEED FOR CONTINUED VIGILANCE IN SECTORS THAT HAVE REOPENED, available at https://www.sccgov.org/sites/ covid19/Pages/press-release-06-12-2020-cases-at-construction-sites.aspx.

City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project
August 6, 2024

Page 7 of 28 ends

• The Temperature Screening Site Plan shows details
regarding access to the Project Site and Project Site logistics for conducting temperature screening.
• A 48-hour advance notice will be provided to all trades prior to the first day of temperature screening.
• The perimeter fence directly adjacent to the entry points will be clearly marked indicating the appropriate 6-foot social distancing position for when you approach the screening area. Please reference the Apex temperature screening site map for additional details.
• There will be clear signage posted at the project site directing you through temperature screening.
• Provide hand washing stations throughout the construction site.

Testing Procedures:
• The temperature screening being used are non-contact
devices.
• Temperature readings will not be recorded.
• Personnel will be screened upon entering the testing center and should only take 1-2 seconds per individual.
• Hard hats, head coverings, sweat, dirt, sunscreen or any other cosmetics must be removed on the forehead before
temperature screening.
• Anyone who refuses to submit to a temperature screening or does not answer the health screening questions will be
refused access to the Project Site.
• Screening will be performed at both entrances from 5:30 am to 7:30 am.; main gate [ZONE 1] and personnel gate
[ZONE 2]
• After 7:30 am only the main gate entrance [ZONE 1] will continue to be used for temperature testing for anybody City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project

gaining entry to the project site such as returning personnel, deliveries, and visitors.
• If the digital thermometer displays a temperature reading above 100.0 degrees Fahrenheit, a second reading will be taken to verify an accurate reading.
• If the second reading confirms an elevated temperature, DHS will instruct the individual that he/she will not be allowed to enter the Project Site. DHS will also instruct the individual to promptly notify his/her supervisor and his/her human resources (HR) representative and provide them with a copy of Annex A.

Planning
• Require the development of an Infectious Disease
Preparedness and Response Plan that will include basic
infection prevention measures (requiring the use of personal protection equipment), policies and procedures for prompt identification and isolation of sick individuals, social distancing (prohibiting gatherings of no more than 10
people including all-hands meetings and all-hands lunches) communication and training and workplace controls that
meet standards that may be promulgated by the Center for Disease Control, Occupational Safety and Health
Administration, Cal/OSHA, California Department of
Public Health or applicable local public health agencies.6 The United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Carpenters International Training Fund has developed COVID-19 Training and Certification to ensure that Carpenter union members and apprentices conduct safe work practices. The Agency should require that 6 See also The Center for Construction Research and Training, North America’s Building Trades Unions (April 27 2020) NABTU and CPWR COVIC-19 Standards for U.S Constructions Sites, available at https://www.cpwr.com/sites/default/files/NABTU_ CPWR_Standards_COVID-19.pdf; Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (2020) Guidelines for Construction Sites During COVID-19 Pandemic, available at https://dpw.lacounty.gov/building-and-safety/docs/pw_guidelines-construction-sites.pdf.

City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project

Page 9 of 28 ends

all construction workers undergo COVID-19 Training and Certification before being allowed to conduct construction activities at the Project Site.

The Western States Carpenters has also developed a rigorous Infection Control Risk Assessment (“ICRA”) training program to ensure it delivers a workforce that understands how to identify and control infection risks by implementing protocols to protect themselves and all others during renovation and construction projects in healthcare environments.7
ICRA protocols are intended to contain pathogens, control airflow, and protect patients during the construction, maintenance and renovation of healthcare facilities.

ICRA protocols prevent cross contamination, minimizing the risk of secondary infections in patients at hospital facilities.

The City should require the Project to be built using a workforce trained in ICRA protocols.

IV. THE CITY MUST REVISE AND RECIRCULATE THE EIR FOR

THE PROJECT
CEQA is a California statute designed to inform decision makers and the public about the potential, significant environmental effects of a project. 14 California Code of Regulations (“CEQA Guidelines”) § 15002(a)(1).8 At its core, “[i]ts purpose is to inform the public and its responsible officials of the environmental consequences of their decisions before they are made.” Citizens of Goleta Valley v. Board of Supervisors (1990) 52 Cal. 3d 553, 564.

To achieve this purpose, CEQA mandates preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”) for projects so that the foreseeable impacts of pursuing the project can be understood and weighed. Communities for a Better Environment v. Richmond (2010) 7 For details concerning the Western States Carpenters’ ICRA training program, see https://icrahealthcare.com/.
8 The CEQA Guidelines, codified in Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, section 15000 et seq, are regulatory guidelines promulgated by the state Natural Resources Agency for the implementation of CEQA. (Cal. Pub. Res. Code § 21083.) The CEQA Guidelines are given “great weight in interpreting CEQA except when . . . clearly unauthorized or erroneous.” Center for Biological Diversity v. Department of Fish & Wildlife (2015) 62 Cal. 4th 204, 217.

184 Cal. App. 4th 70, 80. The EIR requirement “is the heart of CEQA.” CEQA Guidelines, § 15003(a).

The preparation and circulation of an EIR is more than a set of technical hurdles for agencies and developers to overcome. The EIR’s function is to ensure that government officials who decide to build or approve a project do so with a full understanding of the environmental consequences and, equally important, that the public is assured those consequences have been considered. For the EIR to serve these goals it must present information so that the foreseeable impacts of pursuing the project can be understood and weighed, and the public must be given an adequate opportunity to comment on that presentation before the decision to go forward is made. Communities for a Better Environment v. Richmond (2010) 184 Cal. App. 4th 70, 80 (quoting Vineyard Area Citizens for Responsible Growth, Inc. v. City of Rancho Cordova (2007) 40 Cal. 4th 412, 449–450).

Section 15088.5(a) of the CEQA Guidelines provides that an EIR must be recirculated whenever there is disclosure of significant new information. Significant new information includes: (1) disclosure of a new significant environmental impact resulting from the project or from a new proposed mitigation measure; (2) disclosure of a substantial increase in the severity of an environmental impact unless mitigation measures are adopted that reduce the impact to a level of insignificance; and (3) disclosure of a feasible project alternative or mitigation measure considerably different from others previously analyzed which would clearly lessen the significant environmental impacts of the project which the project proponents decline to adopt.

Id.

Additionally, an EIR must be recirculated when it is so fundamentally inadequate and conclusory in nature that meaningful public review and comment is precluded. Id. [citing Mountain Lion Coalition v. Fish & Game Com. (1989) 214 Cal.App.3d 1043].

Here, as discussed below, the DEIR fails to substantiate all of its conclusions to allow meaningful public review and comment, provide adequate mitigation measures, and fully assess all pertinent environmental factors. Accordingly, this comment letter discloses significant new information, necessitating revision and recirculation of the DEIR.

A. The DEIR’s Alternatives Are Legally Inadequate
An EIR must discuss a reasonable range of alternatives to the project, which “shall include those that could feasibly accomplish most of the basic objectives of the project and could avoid or substantially lessen one or more of the significant effects.” CEQA Guidelines § 15126.6(a)&(c). “[T]he discussion of alternatives shall focus on alternatives.... which are capable of avoiding or substantially lessening any significant effects of the project....” CEQA Guidelines § 15126.6(b). Further, an EIR is legally inadequate if it contains an overly narrow range of alternatives. Watsonville Pilots Ass’n v. City of Watsonville (2010) 183 Cal.App.4th 1059, 1087, 20190 [not considering a reduced development alternative was error].

Here, the DEIR considered a (1) no project alternative; (2) an originally approved specific plan alternative; and (3) a phase 1 only alternative. DEIR at 7-42. However, the DEIR notes that both build alternatives it considered would continue to result in similar or greater aesthetic, geology & soils, hazards & hazardous material, hydrology & water quality, land use planning, population & housing, public services, recreation, and utility impacts. Id. Accordingly, the DEIR fails to consider a reasonable range of alternatives which could eliminate or reduce the Project’s significant impacts, as required.

B. The DEIR’s Mitigation Measures Are Insufficient
A fundamental purpose of an EIR is to identify ways in which a proposed project's significant environmental impacts can be mitigated or avoided. Pub. Res. Code §§ 21002.1(a), 21061. To implement this statutory purpose, an EIR must describe any feasible mitigation measures that can minimize the project's significant environmental effects. PRC §§ 21002.1(a), 21100(b)(3); CEQA Guidelines §§ 15121(a), 15126.4(a).

If the project has a significant effect on the environment, the agency may approve the project only upon finding that it has “eliminated or substantially lessened all significant effects on the environment where feasible” PRC §§ 21002; 21002.1, 21081; CEQA Guidelines §§ 15091, 15092(b)(2)(A); and find that ‘specific overriding economic, legal, social, technology or other benefits of the project outweigh the significant effects on the environment.” PRC §§ 21002; 21002.1, 21081; CEQA Guidelines §§ 15091, 15092(b)(2)(B). “A gloomy forecast of environmental degradation is of little or no value without pragmatic, concrete means to minimize the City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project

impacts and restore ecological equilibrium.” Environmental Council of Sacramento v. City of Sacramento (2006) 142 Cal.App.4th 1018, 1039.

CEQA mitigation measures proposed and adopted are required to describe what actions will be taken to reduce or avoid an environmental impact. (CEQA Guidelines § 15126.4(a)(1)(B) [providing “[f]ormulation of mitigation measures should not be deferred until some future time.”].) While the same Guidelines section 15126.5(a)(1)(B) acknowledges an exception to the rule against deferrals, such exception is narrowly proscribed to situations where it is impractical or infeasible to include those details during the project's environmental review.

According to CEQA Guidelines, “[w]hen an EIR has been prepared for a project, the Responsible Agency shall not approve the project as proposed if the agency finds any feasible alternative or feasible mitigation measures within its powers that would substantially lessen or avoid any significant effect the project would have on the environment.” CEQA Guidelines Section 15096(g)(2).

Here, the EIR’s mitigation measures are improperly deferred or fail to adequately mitigate the Project’s impacts as follows:
i. Biological Resources
Although the EIR imposes 40 mitigation measures to mitigate the Project’s biological resource impacts, several of the measures are insufficient. For example, mitigation measures BIO-26 and BIO-27 require pre-construction surveys solely for Le Conte thrashers and Burrowing Owls, despite the DEIR finding that the Project site may also contain black‐tailed gnatcatcher (Polioptila caerulea), loggerhead shrike (Lanius ludovicianus), long‐eared owl (Asio otus), osprey (Pandion haliaetus), and prairie falcon (Falco mexicanus). Compare DEIR at 1-20 – 1-21 with 4.4-10. Thus, BIO-27 should be revised to require pre-construction nesting bird surveys for all nesting birds rather than just for Le Conte thrashers.

Additionally, mitigation measure BIO-28, even as revised in the FEIR, defines the nesting season as February 1- August 31. Such a timeframe is inconsistent with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s (“CDFW”) finding that certain species “commence nesting activities in January. . . and nest later than August 31”9 The nesting 9 See CDFW November 18, 2021 letter to City of Adelanto at 3, available at https://files.ceqanet.opr.ca.gov/273819-
City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project
August 6, 2024

Page 13 of 28 ends

period on the mitigation measures should be revised to account for these findings. The measures also fail to specify that surveys should be consistent with CDFW protocols.

Such specification is necessary to ensure that the measure, and surveys which it requires, are adequate.

Absent such preparation and specifications, the measures are improperly deferred and cannot support the EIR’s less than significant biological resource impact finding.

Moreover, the Project would construct approximately 1,000 feet of the Jefferson Street roadway through and upon the Santa Rosa & San Jacinto Mountains Conservation Area, which has been designated as “Critical Habitat” by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. No analysis is provided in the DEIR or FEIR as to if and how the Project intends to mitigate the associated impacts to the Conservation Area. Further still, as to the Project’s cumulative impacts on biological resources, in conjunction with the development of the neighboring Coral Canyon project and the Resort at Coral Mountain project, the Project will completely cut off Coral Mountain (an undeveloped mountain area north of the Project site within the City limits that has been documented as supporting Peninsular Bighorn Sheep) from the aforementioned federal Conservation Area. The Project’s EIR wholly ignores this impact and the associated habitat fragmentation that will result from the collective development of these three adjacent major development projects. To that end, additional study of the Project’s cumulative impacts on biological resources is absolutely warranted. ii. Greenhouse Gas Emissions
The DEIR finds that the Project greenhouse gas (“GHG”) impacts will be significant and unavoidable. DEIR at 1-33. Thus, the EIR imposes several measures in attempt to mitigate such impacts, GHG-1 – GHG-10.

GHG-2 provides that “[a]ll residences shall incorporate roof‐top solar panels, in‐home batteries and EV charger stations to facilitate use of EVs, golf carts and other low‐ speed electric vehicles (LSEVs).” DEIR at 1-33. However, the measure fails to specify any quantities or minimum coverage for the solar panels, batteries, and charger stations.

City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project
August 6, 2024

Page 14 of 28 ends

Similarly, GHG-5 requires that “[a]ll non‐residential components of the development where vehicle parking is provides shall also provide EV chargers” without in fact specifying any percentage of required chargers. DEIR at 1-34. Thus, the Project’s EIR must be revised to provide such specification in the mitigation measures.

Additionally, as stated in the Office of Planning Research’s (“OPR”) technical advisory in 2018:

VMT and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction. Senate Bill 32 (Pavley, 2016) requires California to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030, and Executive Order B-16-12 provides a target of 80 percent below 1990 emissions levels for the transportation sector by 2050.

Despite the Project’s clear GHG emissions impact in direct contravention of SB 32’s GHG reduction goals, the EIR does not make an adequate effort to otherwise reduce the Project’s GHG impacts through other specific project design features aimed at reducing GHG emissions.

Moreover, the Project is not consistent with the CARB 2022 Scoping Plan. Indeed, the first action item in the Scoping Plan is reduce GHG emissions “40% below 1990 levels by 2030.”10 The CARB Scoping Plan also sets forth the action item that new residential and commercial buildings will have “[a]ll electric appliances beginning 2026 (residential) and 2029 (commercial), contributing to 6 million heat pumps installed statewide by 2030.”11
Despite the clear path presented by the CARB Scoping Plan for reducing GHG emissions, the DEIR declines to hold the Project to that standard, and instead deflects its responsibility to mitigate significant GHG emissions impacts to the greatest degree possible, pursuant to CEQA’s mandate.

Indeed, it is the City’s obligation, as lead agency, to ensure that the Project’s environmental impacts have first been properly analyzed and then mitigated to a less than significant level wherever possible. WSRCC submits that the Project’s implementation of the additional potential mitigation measures set forth below (where applicable), as delineated by the California Air Pollution Control Officers 10 California Air Resources Board 2022 Scoping Plan at p. 72; https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default/files/2023-04/2022-sp.pdf 11 Id. at p. 75

(See Quantifying Greenhouse Gas Mitigation Measures, Tables 6-1 to 6-9, California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA), August 2010.12) It is entirely feasible for the EIR to incorporate a substantial proportion of the foregoing measures for the Project as mandatory forms of mitigation against the Project’s significant and unavoidable greenhouse gas impacts. More is required, and as 12 Available at: http://www.aqmd.gov/docs/default-source/ceqa/handbook/capcoaquantifying-greenhouse-gas-mitigation-measures.pdf City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project

Page 22 of 28 ends

currently constituted, the EIR’s improper analysis and lack of appropriate mitigation on GHG impacts violates CEQA.
iii. Hazards and Hazardous Materials
Mitigation measure HAZ-1, even after revision in the FEIR, requires that “Prior to grading, Limited Phase II Subsurface Investigation shall be required. The Limited Phase II Subsurface Investigation shall be conducted by an Environmental Professional as defined in Section 312.10 of 40 CFR Part 312.” DEIR at 1-35; FEIR at 3-28. Thus, it appears as though no Limited Phase II Subsurface Investigation has been conducted yet, absent any explanation as to why it is not feasible to do so at this time.

Likewise, HAZ-8 requires that “[t]he Project shall consult an asbestos inspection consultant for a comprehensive asbestos survey prior to demolition of the project site”, without indicating why such consultation is not feasible at this time. Deferring formulation of the actual mitigation measure to some undefined time after the Project’s approval is improper and cannot be used as a mitigation measure.

CEQA forbids deferred mitigation. Guidelines § 15126.4(a)(1)(B). CEQA allows deferral of details of a mitigation measure only “when it is impractical or infeasible to include those details during the project’s environmental review.” (Id.) CEQA further requires: “that the agency (1) commits itself to the mitigation, (2) adopts specific performance standards the mitigation will achieve, and (3) identifies the type(s) of potential action(s) that can feasibly achieve that performance standard…” Guidelines § 15126.4(a)(1)(B).

In the context of HAZ-1 and HAZ-8, the City has failed all of these preconditions and requirements, as the EIR has failed to show why a Limited Phase II Subsurface Investigation and/or an asbestos survey cannot be completed or achieved at this time prior to adoption of the EIR, what impacts the measures will have individually or cumulatively, if those would indeed be feasible, and the specific performance criteria the Applicant will have to meet with regard to the measures. Accordingly, the proposed mitigation measures are improperly deferred as it defers the formulation of components of the mitigation to a later time, shifts the burden to the Applicant, and further does not explain how the measures will clearly reduce the hazards impacts to a level of insignificance.

City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project

Page 23 of 28 ends

Absent such preparation or specification, the EIR’s mitigation measures are improperly deferred.
iv. Noise
Mitigation measure NOI-5 provides that “[p]rior to water well drilling, the construction contractor shall provide a temporary 24‐foot‐high noise barrier capable of reducing noise during well construction activities to 80 dBA Leq or less.” DEIR at 1-39. However, there is no indication that any such temporary noise barrier(s) will also be moveable to ensure it properly reduces the sound of the construction noise at its source. As noted by the court in AIDS HEALTHCARE FOUNDATION v. CITY OF LOS ANGELES, LASC Case Number: 19STCP05445 (April 5, 2021):
“The City’s response actually concedes the flaw in the efficacy of MM 1- 2 as it is written. Effective mitigation to sensitive receptors requires the noise barrier systems to be moved. The City argues MM 1-2 is effective because ‘the noise barriers are moveable, meaning that they move in concert with any piece of construction equipment to ensure the equipment does not operate with an unobstructed line of sight to a receptor.’ (Opposition Brief 35:15-17.) The City recognizes the barriers must be moveable ‘to shield construction activities, no matter where they occur onsite.’ (Opposition Brief 35:18-19.)
Despite the City’s recognition the noise barriers must be moved throughout the Project during construction to effectively mitigate construction-related noise, MM 1-2 does not require such movement. It is not about wordsmithing-it is about enforceability and efficacy. The City’s attempts to distinguish between ‘Project boundaries’ and ‘property boundaries’ is unpersuasive.24 Such a distinction-if there is one-does not resolve the ambiguity. Nothing in MM 1-2 requires any noise barriers to be moved. *25 Accordingly, the court finds substantial evidence does not support the City’s conclusion MM 1-2 is an effective mitigation measure.” (Exhibit D, p. 20 [Ruling].)
Absent such specifications, the mitigation measure is legally inadequate and cannot support a finding that the Project’s noise impacts may be reduced to the level identified.

C. The DEIR Fails to Support its Findings on Land Use with Substantial Evidence
Each California city and county must adopt a comprehensive, long-term general plan governing development. Napa Citizens for Honest Gov. v. Napa County Bd. of Supervisors (2001) 91 Cal.App.4th 342, 352, citing Gov. Code §§ 65030, 65300. The general plan sits at the top of the land use planning hierarchy and serves as a “constitution” or “charter” for all future development. DeVita v. County of Napa (1995) 9 Cal.4th 763, 773; Lesher Communications, Inc. v. City of Walnut Creek (1990) 52 Cal.3d 531, 540.

General plan consistency is “the linchpin of California’s land use and development laws; it is the principle which infused the concept of planned growth with the force of law.” Debottari v. Norco City Council (1985) 171 Cal.App.3d 1204, 1213. It is well established that development projects may not be approved if they interfere with, or frustrate, the general plan’s policies and objectives. See Napa Citizens, 91 Cal.App.4th at 378-79; see also Lesher, 52 Cal.3d at 544.

Here, the EIR fails to analyze the consistency of the Project’s requested entitlements with the General Plan and Specific Plan. Specifically, amongst other entitlements, the Project requires a general plan amendment, zone change, specific plan amendment, tentative parcel map, and development plan approval. DEIR at 1-4. However, rather than specifically analyzing the consistency of such departures from the plans, the DEIR merely presumes that such entitlements are consistent because they “do not represent a substantial change to the character of the area envisioned in the General Plan. DEIR at p. 4.11-27. Thus, the EIR’s less than significant finding is unsupported and, for this reason too, the EIR must be revised and recirculated to conduct adequate consistency analysis for each individual entitlement requested.

D. The DEIR’s Hydrology and Water Quality Findings and Analysis Are Insufficient
CEQA requires that an EIR identify and discuss the significant effects of a Project, how those significant effects can be mitigated or avoided. CEQA Guidelines § 15126.2; PRC §§ 21100(b)(1), 21002.1(a). If a project has a significant effect on the environment, an agency may approve the project only upon finding that it has “eliminated or substantially lessened all significant effects on the environment where feasible” and that any unavoidable significant effects on the environment are “acceptable due to overriding concerns.” CEQA Guidelines § 15092(b)(2)(A–B). Such City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project
August 6, 2024

Page 25 of 28 ends

findings must be supported by substantial evidence. CEQA Guidelines § 15091(b).

The DEIR at hand fails to comply with these requirements.

Specifically, the DEIR provides that “[t]he proposed clearing, grading, and construction activities” have the potential to result in surface water quality impacts.” DEIR at p. 4.10-20. Such impacts are of particular concern given that the Project site is within 700 feet of critical habitat for the federally endangered Peninsular bighorn sheep. Id. at p. 4.4-12. Nevertheless, rather than in fact assessing the severity and probability of potential construction related water quality impacts, the DEIR merely concludes that such impacts will be less than significant because the Project will be required to comply with Construction General Permit requirements and best management practices. Id. at p. 4.10-20. Such a blanket conclusion runs afoul to CEQA because it is well established that determinations that regulatory compliance will be sufficient to prevent significant adverse impacts must be based on a projectspecific analysis of potential impacts and the effect of regulatory compliance. See Californians for Alternatives to Toxics v. Department of Food & Agric. (2005) 136 Cal. App. 4th 1; Ebbetts Pass Forest Watch v Department of Forestry & Fire Protection (2008) 43 Cal.

App. 4th 936, 956.

The EIR for the Project cannot rely upon regulatory compliance in making its less than significant impact determination without assessing and providing Project specific information and analysis as to its anticipated water quality impacts.

E. The DEIR Fails to Adequately Analyze the Project’s Cumulative Impacts.

An EIR must discuss a cumulative impact if the project’s incremental effect combined with the effects of other projects is “cumulatively considerable.” 14 C.C.R. §15130(a).

This determination is based on an assessment of the project’s incremental effects “viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects.” 14 C.C.R. §15065(a)(3); Banning Ranch Conservancy v City of Newport Beach (2012) 211 CA4th 1209, 1228. See also 14 C.C.R. §15355(b).

The CEQA Guidelines require that an EIR implement the provisions of Pub. Res.

Code §21083(b)(2), which specifies that the Guidelines must include criteria requiring public agencies to find that a project may have a significant effect on the environment if its possible effects “are individually limited but cumulatively considerable.” City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project
August 6, 2024

Page 26 of 28 ends

The purpose of the cumulative impacts analysis is to avoid considering projects in a vacuum, because failure to consider cumulative harm may risk environmental disaster.

Whitman v Board of Supervisors (1979) 88 Cal.App.3d 397, 408 (citing Natural Resources Defense Council v Callaway (2d Cir 1975) 524 F2d 79). Without this analysis, piecemeal approval of several projects with related impacts could lead to severe environmental harm. Golden Door Props., LLC v County of San Diego (2020) 50 Cal.App.5th 467, 527; San Joaquin Raptor/Wildlife Rescue Ctr. v County of Stanislaus (1994) 27 Cal.App.4th 713, 720; Las Virgenes Homeowners Fed’n v County of Los Angeles (1986) 177 Cal.App.3d 300, 306.

An adequate analysis of cumulative impacts is particularly important when another related project might significantly worsen the project’s adverse environmental impacts.

Friends of the Eel River v Sonoma County Water Agency (2003) 108 CA4th 859.

An EIR must discuss cumulative impacts when they are significant, and the project’s incremental contribution is “cumulatively considerable.” 14 C.C.R. §15130(a). A project’s incremental contribution is cumulatively considerable if the incremental effects of the project are significant “when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects.” 14 C.C.R. §15065(a)(3).

Here, the DEIR for the Project already notes that the Project is anticipated to have significant and unavoidable impacts in the areas of Air Quality and GHG Emissions, and that, absent implementation of extensive mitigation measures, the Project would otherwise be anticipated have significant impacts in the areas of Aesthetics, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Geology and Soils, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology and Water Quality, Noise, and Public Services. Despite the wide scope of significant impacts presented by the Project on its own, the DEIR and FEIR contain no reference or consideration whatsoever of two major development projects planned to be constructed adjacent to the Project site.

The first is the Resort at Coral Mountain project, for which the City just certified an EIR on March 5, 2024, and which is due to be constructed less than a half mile from the Project’s northeast edge. The Coral Mountain Resort project, as approved, will include development of 750 low-density residential units, a golf course, and 60,000 square feet of retail commercial construction, spanning 387 acres immediately northeast of Coral Mountain. The second adjacent project is the Coral Canyons project, in connection with which the City certified the Green Specific Plan on June 6, 1995, and later approved Tentative Tract Maps pursuant to adoption of a Mitigated City of La Quinta – Travertine Specific Plan Project
August 6, 2024

Page 27 of 28 ends

Negative Declaration. Coral Canyons, which is due to be constructed less than a half mile from the northwest edge of the Project, would consist of development of 219 single family lots on 317.61 acres directly west of Coral Mountain. The Jefferson Street roadway, on which the current Project is dependent for vehicular access and traffic flow, would necessarily run directly through the Coral Canyons project to the north.

Upon completion of construction of the Project, and in conjunction with these assorted neighboring projects, the entirety of Coral Mountain will be surrounded on all sides by nearly 1,000 acres of new development, where there was otherwise previously no adjacent development to be found. It defies belief, and CEQA, that the DEIR and FEIR makes absolutely no mention (let alone discussion and analysis) of these two adjacent major development projects, both of which are further along in their respective planning processes, when considering the cumulative impacts that the Project will have within the City.

Accordingly, the EIR must be revised and recirculated to consider and fully analyze the potential cumulative impacts presented by the Project in conjunction with the known development projects in its immediate vicinity. Absent doing so, the EIR will remain legally deficient, and any approval/certification of it in its current form will violate CEQA.

V. CONCLUSION
In sum, WSRCC requests that the City require a local workforce, that the City impose training requirements for the Project’s construction activities to prevent community spread of COVID-19 and other infectious diseases, and that the City revise and recirculate the DEIR for the Project to address the aforementioned concerns. If the City has any questions, please do not hesitate to contact this office.

Subject: Local Hire Requirements and Considerations for Greenhouse Gas Modeling Dear Mr. Tsai,
Soil Water Air Protection Enterprise (“SWAPE”) is pleased to provide the following draft technical report explaining the significance of worker trips required for construction of land use development projects with respect to the estimation of greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions. The report will also discuss the potential for local hire requirements to reduce the length of worker trips, and consequently, reduced or mitigate the potential GHG impacts.

Worker Trips and Greenhouse Gas Calculations
The California Emissions Estimator Model (“CalEEMod”) is a “statewide land use emissions computer model designed to provide a uniform platform for government agencies, land use planners, and environmental professionals to quantify potential criteria pollutant and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with both construction and operations from a variety of land use projects.”1 CalEEMod quantifies construction-related emissions associated with land use projects resulting from off-road construction equipment; on-road mobile equipment associated with workers, vendors, and hauling; fugitive dust associated with grading, demolition, truck loading, and on-road vehicles traveling along paved and unpaved roads; and architectural coating activities; and paving.2
The number, length, and vehicle class of worker trips are utilized by CalEEMod to calculate emissions associated with the on-road vehicle trips required to transport workers to and from the Project site during construction.3 1 “California Emissions Estimator Model.” CAPCOA, 2017, available at: http://www.aqmd.gov/caleemod/home. 2 “California Emissions Estimator Model.” CAPCOA, 2017, available at: http://www.aqmd.gov/caleemod/home. 3 “CalEEMod User’s Guide.” CAPCOA, November 2017, available at: http://www.aqmd.gov/docs/defaultsource/caleemod/01_user-39-s-guide2016-3-2_15november2017.pdf?sfvrsn=4, p. 34. 2 Specifically, the number and length of vehicle trips is utilized to estimate the vehicle miles travelled (“VMT”) associated with construction. Then, utilizing vehicle-class specific EMFAC 2014 emission factors, CalEEMod calculates the vehicle exhaust, evaporative, and dust emissions resulting from construction-related VMT, including personal vehicles for worker commuting.4
Specifically, in order to calculate VMT, CalEEMod multiplies the average daily trip rate by the average overall trip length (see excerpt below):
“VMTd = Σ(Average Daily Trip Rate i * Average Overall Trip Length i) n Where:
n = Number of land uses being modeled.”5
Furthermore, to calculate the on-road emissions associated with worker trips, CalEEMod utilizes the following equation (see excerpt below):
“Emissionspollutant = VMT * EFrunning,pollutant
Where:

Emissionspollutant = emissions from vehicle running for each pollutant VMT = vehicle miles traveled
EFrunning,pollutant = emission factor for running emissions.” 6 Thus, there is a direct relationship between trip length and VMT, as well as a direct relationship between VMT and vehicle running emissions. In other words, when the trip length is increased, the VMT and vehicle running emissions increase as a result. Thus, vehicle running emissions can be reduced by decreasing the average overall trip length, by way of a local hire requirement or otherwise.

Default Worker Trip Parameters and Potential Local Hire Requirements As previously discussed, the number, length, and vehicle class of worker trips are utilized by CalEEMod to calculate emissions associated with the on-road vehicle trips required to transport workers to and from the Project site during construction.7In order to understand how local hire requirements and associated worker trip length reductions impact GHG emissions calculations, it is important to consider the CalEEMod default worker trip parameters. CalEEMod provides recommended default values based on site-specific information, such as land use type, meteorological data, total lot acreage, project type and typical equipment associated with project type. If more specific project information is known, the user can change the default values and input projectspecific values, but the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) requires that such changes be justified by substantial evidence.8 The default number of construction-related worker trips is calculated by multiplying the 4 “Appendix A Calculation Details for CalEEMod.” CAPCOA, October 2017, available at: http://www.aqmd.gov/docs/defaultsource/caleemod/02_appendix-a2016-3-2.pdf?sfvrsn=6, p. 14-15. 5 “Appendix A Calculation Details for CalEEMod.” CAPCOA, October 2017, available at: http://www.aqmd.gov/docs/defaultsource/caleemod/02_appendix-a2016-3-2.pdf?sfvrsn=6, p. 23. 6 “Appendix A Calculation Details for CalEEMod.” CAPCOA, October 2017, available at: http://www.aqmd.gov/docs/defaultsource/caleemod/02_appendix-a2016-3-2.pdf?sfvrsn=6, p. 15. 7 “CalEEMod User’s Guide.” CAPCOA, November 2017, available at: http://www.aqmd.gov/docs/defaultsource/caleemod/01_user-39-s-guide2016-3-2_15november2017.pdf?sfvrsn=4, p. 34. 8 CalEEMod User Guide, available at: http://www.caleemod.com/, p. 1, 9. 3 number of pieces of equipment for all phases by 1.25, with the exception of worker trips required for the building construction and architectural coating phases.9Furthermore, the worker trip vehicle class is a 50/25/25 percent mix of light duty autos, light duty truck class 1 and light duty truck class 2, respectively.”10 Finally, the default worker trip length is consistent with the length of the operational home-to-work vehicle trips.11 The operational home-to-work vehicle trip lengths are:
“[B]ased on the location and urbanization selected on the project characteristic screen. These values were supplied by the air districts or use a default average for the state. Each district (or county) also assigns trip lengths for urban and rural settings” (emphasis added). 12 Thus, the default worker trip length is based on the location and urbanization level selected by the User when modeling emissions. The below table shows the CalEEMod default rural and urban worker trip lengths by air basin (see excerpt below and Attachment A).13

D-84 – D-86. 4 As demonstrated above, default rural worker trip lengths for air basins in California vary from 10.8- to 19.8- miles, with an average of 16.47 miles. Furthermore, default urban worker trip lengths vary from 10.8- to 14.7- miles, with an average of 11.17 miles. Thus, while default worker trip lengths vary by location, default urban worker trip lengths tend to be shorter in length. Based on these trends evident in the CalEEMod default worker trip lengths, we can reasonably assume that the efficacy of a local hire requirement is especially dependent upon the urbanization of the project site, as well as the project location.

Practical Application of a Local Hire Requirement and Associated Impact To provide an example of the potential impact of a local hire provision on construction-related GHG emissions, we estimated the significance of a local hire provision for the Village South Specific Plan (“Project”) located in the City of Claremont (“City”). The Project proposed to construct 1,000 residential units, 100,000-SF of retail space, 45,000-SF of office space, as well as a 50-room hotel, on the 24-acre site. The Project location is classified as Urban and lies within the Los Angeles-South Coast County. As a result, the Project has a default worker trip length of 14.7 miles.14 In an effort to evaluate the potential for a local hire provision to reduce the Project’s construction-related GHG emissions, we prepared an updated model, reducing all worker trip lengths to 10 miles (see Attachment B). Our analysis estimates that if a local hire provision with a 10-mile radius were to be implemented, the GHG emissions associated with Project construction would decrease by approximately 17% (see table below and Attachment C).

Local Hire Provision Net Change
Without Local Hire Provision
Total Construction GHG Emissions (MT CO2e) 3,623
Amortized Construction GHG Emissions (MT CO2e/year) 120.77 With Local Hire Provision
Total Construction GHG Emissions (MT CO2e) 3,024
Amortized Construction GHG Emissions (MT CO2e/year) 100.80 % Decrease in Construction-related GHG Emissions 17%
As demonstrated above, by implementing a local hire provision requiring 10 mile worker trip lengths, the Project could reduce potential GHG emissions associated with construction worker trips. More broadly, any local hire requirement that results in a decreased worker trip length from the default value has the potential to result in a reduction of construction-related GHG emissions, though the significance of the reduction would vary based on the location and urbanization level of the project site.

This serves as an example of the potential impacts of local hire requirements on estimated project-level GHG emissions, though it does not indicate that local hire requirements would result in reduced construction-related GHG emission for all projects. As previously described, the significance of a local hire requirement depends on the worker trip length enforced and the default worker trip length for the project’s urbanization level and location.
