VI. Utilities and Service Systems:
The Discussion for Sub -section (b) notes that the potential need for new or expanded wastewater treatment facilities is "potentially significant" and states that this need will be analyzed in the DEIR. It is assumed that the analysis will lead to mitigation measures to reduce potential impact to "Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated." As stated previously, this designation appears to be premature. The NOP should designate this potential impact as "potentially significant" until the DEIR analysis is completed.
Sub -section (d) refers to availability of water supplies to support the proposed Project and should be designated as "potentially significant" until the EIR analysis shows otherwise. The DEIR analysis should consider how the proposed Project could be designed to make maximum use of recycled water to minimize the need for fresh water.
Sub -sections (e) and (f), which address wastewater generation and increased general of solid waste, should also be designated as "potentially significant" until the EIR analysis proves otherwise.
C. Conclusion:
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this important Project. We hope that these comments will assist the City in the DEIR and the final Project.

2.) Draft Circulation Element 01232-28b.doc
Dear Mr. Ramirez:
The following eight points need to be addressed in the EIR prepared on the basis of Ref. 1. NOR Importantly the EIR must assess its proposed mitigation measures for the traffic growth created by the General Plan Update and its handling by the city along with traffic growth permitted under the current General Plan and planned huge traffic growth in the Irvine Business Complex.
As a baseline, the latest city traffic studies currently show that six intersections in the city are unsatisfactory i.e. operate at LOS E or above. This means that the city does not have the funding to correct current discrepancies in its Circulation System. (1.) The NOP projects major and expensive intersection and in some cases roadway improvements that are totally unfunded. The proposed improvements, whose funding is highly questionable as further described below, still leave four intersections remaining that are not operating at a satisfactory level (LOS D or below). These four intersections are shown in the Ref.2.) Traffic Study to operate at LOS E and above and therefore are in violation of the state requirement that the Land Use Element match the capacity of the Circulation Element.
An even larger problem presents itself in the proposed mitigation of the 13 intersections and/or arterials named in the NOP. Newport Beach City Law (The Traffic Phasing Ordinance) was changed to meet constitutional rulings that developments can be charged only for their proportional share of the cost of mitigating unsatisfactory traffic created by their project.
While many of the developments authorized by the General Plan Update will be built within a few years of its approval, it will take many years for additional developments to be built that will furnish sufficient additional funding to actually enlarge an intersection and/or roadway. It will also be that in many cases very close to a full additional load will be placed upon an intersection but the funds to complete the improvements will be lacking. During that interim period, that is indeterminate in length, the roadways will be more congested than would bee indicated by the false assumption that all the intersections were improved as of the date of the EIR study.
(2.) A further problem presents itself in the city's proposed plan to enlarge 13 intersections. Most of these proposed improvements require widening of the intersection to add more turn lanes or through lanes. This widening will require expensive condemnation of land. Where is the funding for these actions plus noise abatement walls and the actual construction of the additional lanes? (3.) Therefore, the EIR must examine a phased implementation of Circulation system improvements and the resultant traffic congestion until the time in the future when the city will be able to accumulate sufficient funding to actually improve all intersections. A summary of the proposed thirteen intersection and arterial street improvement costs is needed along with a timeline display of when the improvements will actually be made along with the projected construction rate of the proposed developments.
(4.) Also of great concern, the widening of intersections will place traffic closer to residential areas. Noise mitigation that is acceptable to the homeowners is also required. (5.) Has the traffic generated by the huge residential dwelling complex in the City of Irvine on Jamboree Road near Campus Drive been included in the traffic calculations? (6.) The City of Irvine has changed its General Plan and completed an EIR to permit the construction of approximately 10,000 more dwelling units in the Irvine Business Complex. The Circulation system traffic numbers and subsequent proposed mitigation must include provisions for a good portion of this excess traffic that will unquestionably use Newport Streets in the Airport Area, and Bristol, Campus, McArthur and Jamboree Roads. While the city of Newport Beach has announced it is looking into measures to block or mitigate this City of Irvine plan at this late date, the Newport EIR must contain provisions for this traffic even if only as an alternate case.
(7.) The intersection of Goldenrod and PCH has been shown in traffic studies conducted over the last five years to operate at unsatisfactory levels. Recently, a statement was issued that this intersection would operate at LOS F because it couldn't be mitigated. An explanation is needed as to how the traffic in this intersection was claimed to have been recalculated and the problem eliminated.
(8.) The impacts of summer traffic need to be studied and mitigation measures proposed. In particular, given the proposed 245 units of housing plus mixed use commercial projected for the Mariner's Mile section of Pacific Coast Highway, what will be the summer season impacts on Pacific Coast Highway, Newport Blvd and impacted arterials between the freeways and beach access locations. Given the 3300 housing units proposed for the airport area, how will summer traffic mix with those units plus the 10,000 additional city of Irvine Dwelling Units? Thank you,
Greenlight

RE: Notice of PreparationllS — City of Newport Reach General Plain Update Dear Mr. Ramirez:
The City of Irvine has received the Notice of Preparation for the above project. Based on its review, the City of Irvine has the fallowing comments:
1. Land Use Chan es in the John Wayne Airport Subarea. Please provide specific information on the location of proposed land use intensity changes that increase development potential in the John Wayne Airport; area, as well as witywide, Table 3 of the NOP identifies an increase of 4,300 additional multi faultily units over the existing General Plan. In particular, please identify each location where the increase is proposed, including surface parking lots, Provide information an the existing land use designation for each site and the current development potential as well as the proposed land use designation and site speo'rtic acreages. A comparison of each site's existing General Plan land use designation and its proposed General Plan designation will provide the City of Irvine with the opportunity to determine if a substantial environmental impact will occur as a result of the proposed General Plan Update.
2. Given the proposed General Plan intensity increases in the John Wayne Airport Business subarea, the traffic analysis should include arterials and intersections within the City of Irvine bounded'by Main Street to the north, Red Hill Avenue to the west and Harvard Avenue/University Drive to the east. Depending on where the proposed intensification is within the subarea,, the traffic analysis study area should be expanded to the north and east accordingly. Additionally, the study area should be expanded if impacts are identified along these boundary arterials and intersections.
3. The traffic analysis should analyze the cumulative impacts of the significant projects currently under review within the City of Irvine. Contact City staff for an active list of projects to include based on the ctit-off date of the traffic analysis. nomiTCf1 nK1 DCI'Vrll cr) DADCD

subject. Notice of Preparation/Initial Study for City ofNewport Beach General flan Update Deaf' Mr. lea nirez:
John Wayne Airport, Orange County (SNA) ("SWA" or "the Airport") appreciates this opportunity to comment on the Notice of Preparation/Iaitial Study ("NOP/IS ") for the Environmental Impact Report (" EIR") that will be prepared for the City of Newport Beach's ("City") General Plan Update project. We understand from the NOP/IS that the General Plan Update includes a specific "Sohn Wayne Airport Area" special study subarea which will allow for the development of new residential neighborhoods as replacement of existing and allowed future uses. We would appreciate an opportunity to review the General Pan Update document when it can be made available to us.
GENERAL CO1V, MPNTS
In the NOP/Is, references are made to policies that "establish criteria for the development of cohesive residential neighborhoods oriented around neighborhood parks and local -serving convenience commercial facilities and interconnected by a network of pedestrian -oriented streets" within the subarea designated as "lohn Wayne Airport: Area." The Airport requests that the City address the impacts of any new residential development policies considering JWA's existing and future airport operations and given the proximity of this subarea to the Airport. General flan policies and/or EIR mitigation measures should be considered which incorporate specific information regarding the following requirements: (1) sound attenuation; (2) height limitations; (3) density/intensity limitations; (4) notification requirements; (5) avigation easements; (6) obstruction lighting and marking requirements; and (7) compliance with all Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA"), California Department of Transportation, Division of Aeronautics ("Caltrans"), and Airport Land Use Commission ("ALUC") requirements,
In addition, the Airport has a number of more specific comments. that we would like the City to consider as it moves forward on the General Plan. Update, as provided below.

SPECIFIC COMMENTS
GENERAL PLAN POLICIES AND EIR MITIGATION MEASURE,,S
The following restrictions should be included as General Plan policies and EIR mitigation, measures for all residential development' within the John Wayne Airport Area residential development.
I, Sound Attenuation: Include General plan sound attenuation policies and EIR mitigation measures for adl John Wayne Airport Area residential development: in order to minimize the noise impacts on the residences from present and projected future noise levels, including roadway, aircraft, helicopter, railroad and other noise sources. The sound attenuation requirements should, at a minimum, meet all current City interior and exterior noise standards.
2. Avigation Easement: Include General Plan policies and EIR mitigation measures requiring all John Wayne .Airport Area residential development to record an avigation easement in the chain of title of each residential dwelling unit for noise and related aviation impacts in favor of the County of Orange, the airport proprietor of SWA, prior to issuance of building pennit .
The avigation easement should be in a form consistent with current. Airport requirements. (This avigation easement is separate from and in addition to the "Avigation Easement for Orange County Airport" recordeCd March 17,1964 in book 6965, page 721, which represents a separate John Wayne Airport "ownership" avigation easement already existing over pordons of the City of Newport Beach.)
3. sleight Limitations: Include General Plan policies and EIS, mitigation measures addressing height limitations on all John Wayne Airport Area residential development to limit the height pf any permanent or temporary structure, to a. height under 203.68 feet Above Mean Sea Level ("AMSL") reference National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NG VD 29) consistent with current Orange County Surveyor Adjustment Datum.
4. Obstruction Lighting and Marking: Include General Ilan policies and EIR mitigation measures addressing lighting and marking on all John Wayne Airport Area residential development to comply with the conditions and recommendations by t1w FAA with respect to obstruction lighting and/or marking consistent with the criteria provided in FAA Advisory Circulars 70/7460-1 and 70/7460-1K,
S. Disclosure of JW.A .Aroximity: Include General flan policies and EIR mitigation measures for occupancy disclosure to be provided in future sales literature and saxes/rental/lease agreements for the residential developments stating that the property is located in the vicinity of JWA.

6. -Veed Disclosure Notice; Include General Plan policies and EIR mitigation measures for deed discloswe notification on all John Wayne Airport Area residential development units which require a "Deed Disclosure Notice" 4f the avigation easement. This disclosure notice must be submitted to the City and signed as a part of each sales/rental/lease agreement,
7. Signage: Include Qeneral Plan policies and EIR mitigation measures fox signage on all holm Wayne Airport Area parks and recreational development whieh requires every local park, recreational area, and private recreational facility to place appropriate signage indicating the presence of operating aircraft.
8. Density and Intensity Limitations: Include General Plan policies and EIR mitigation measures in order to minimize the safety impacts on the ,residences from aircraft operations.
The safety measures should establish appropriate criteria limiting the maximum number of dwellings or people in areas close to the airport. The density and intensity limitations should be consistent with those provided by the Airport Environs Land Use Plan for the Airport.
MR ANALYSIs
T11e land use designation, changes being proposed for the John Wayne Airport Area are, in certain cases, significant departures fxQm the land uses currently designated for the Area. The current nonresidential designations permit uses which are generally compatible with the nearby JWA use. In contrast, the proposed residential uses are generally not compatible with a. nearby airport. We believe that the EIR needs to include a complete analysis of envirorrrnental impacts ofthe proposal to amend the General Plan to provide additional residential development in pxQximity of the Airport.
Consistent with our understanding Of the City's goals of developing a strategy or plan for residential development in the John Wayne Airport Area, we have provided below specific comments related to the proposed residential, policies for the area and potential impacts and mitigation measures that should be addressed in the EIR.
1. General Plan Policies for Residential Development in the General Plan John Wayne Airport Area Subarea Should Include Adequately Protecting Future Residential Development From Operations at JWA.
Q;ne of the goals of developing a strategy Or plan for residential development in the City's JWA subaarea should be to adequately protect future residential development from current and projected future aircraft operations at JWA. Specifically, one of the goals should be to ensure that any future residential projects are well planned and provided with the type of protections (4e,, sound attenpation, height limitations, density/intensity limitations, and

adequate notice) needed. These protections should include, all of the items specified previously in this letter and discussed in more detail below.
2. The General Plan Should Include Specific Development Policies for the John Wayne Airport Area Related to Operations at ,TWA.
The following issues should be addressed in the EIR related to any residential development that is proposed for the John Mayne Airport Area subarea:
a. Sound attenuation development standards fpr all residential development. b. Avigation easement requirements for all residential development. c, Height limitation development standards for all residential development, d, Density/intensity limitation development standards for all residential development. e, Obstruction lighting and marking development standards for all residential development.
i Disclosure of JWA proximity development requirements. g. Deed disclosure development requirements,
h, Signage development requirements for public parks and recreational areas.
3. General flan and EIR Maps Depicting the John Wayne Airport Area Should Include JWA's 75, 70, 65 and 60 dB CnL Noise Contour and the Airport's Runway Protection Zones.
A map should be included in the EIR depicting the 75, 70, 65 and 60 decibels ("413") Community Noise Equivalent Level ("CNEL") noise contours for JWA, In addition, Lm,x(10) single event noise levels should be determined through field measurements collected during an appropriate time period of representative aircraft operations and included in the EIIt. Only in t11is way can, the information provide a true and complete picture of the noise eavironrneat resulting from airport operations that would result if a residential project is built at a given location within the JWA planning subarea, information regarding the number of flights that are projected to take off and land at JWA should also be provided.
Finally, the map should include the current boundaries of the Airport's Runway Protection

Zones. The Airport is available tQ worlc with the City on these issues and to provide any necessary information.
4. The Airport Land Use Commission Compatibility Policies Should be Addressed in the General Plan and EIR.
The General Plan and EIR. should include a detailed discussion regarding Airport Land Use ComrnisSion (" ALUC") land use compatibility policies and whether the proposed SWA planning subarea is consistent with these pglicies, Although the City is required to submit the proposed General Plan Update project to the ALUC for an independent consistency determination with the JWA Airport Environs Land Use Plan, the General Plan and EIR should provide a discussion of the ALUC policies and the extent to which. the City believes that the General Plan Update is consistent with these policies.
5. The General PIann Update and EIR Should Address Policies and Mitigations for Residential Land Use in the ,TWA Planning Subarea including Sound Attenuatign, Density/Intensity Limitations, Avigation Easement, Height Limitations, Obstruction Lighting and Marking, Oacupaney and Deed Disclosure, and Signage.
Because the location of the subarea designated "John Wayne Airport Area" is in close proximity to JWA, the policies and mitigation measures used for residential development should be tailored toward minimizing incompatibilities between any new residential development and the ongoing aperatiom at JWA, to the extent possible, We believe that using the following set of guidelines will help create the type of neighborhood that will be successful, desirable and sustainable in the long tent.
A. SoundAtteaua lion
Portions of the General Plan/John Wayne Airport Area will be impacted by current and projected future aircraft noise levels. Single event noise level standards that apply to the interior of residential units located within the 60 d13 CNEL noise contour should be incorporated into the General Plan policies and EIR mitigation, measures as a standard for future residential development. In addition, the mitigation measures should provide detail regarding the type of acoustical testing that will be required to ensure that the inte.rinr noise level criteria has been met.
B. Avigation Easements
The General Plan and. EIR should include policies and mitigation reasures that require all John Wayne Airport Area residential development to record an avigation
FEB.27.2006 4:25PM AIRPORT LAND USE COMMISSION NO.292 P.7i10 Gregg Ramirez
City of Newport Beach
February 27, 2006
easement for noise and related aviation impacts in favor of the County of Orange, the airport proprietor of .TWA, prior to issuance of building permits. The avigation easement should be in a form consistent with current Airport requirements.
C. Height Limitations
The STkTE AERONAUTICS ACT (PUBLIC UTILITIES CODE §§21001, et seq.) provides for the right of flight over private property, unless conducted in a dangerous manner or at altitudes below those prescribed by federal authority. M.UTIL.CoDE §21403(a). No use shall be made of airspace above a property wl-dch would interfere with the right of flight, including established approaches to a runway, Pua.UTrL,CoDE §21402. Specifically, the guidelines of FEDERAL AVIATIOX RErjULATToN (FAR) Part 77, Objects Affecting Navigable A irspace (14 C.F.R. §§77, et seq.), establishes imagiw.ty surfaces for airports and runways as a means to identify objects that are obstructions to air navigation. Each surface is defined as a slope ratio or at a certain altitude above the airport elevation.
The FAA uses PAR Part 77 obstruction standards as elevations above which structures may constitute a safety problem. The regulations require that anyone proposing to construct an object which could affect the navigable airspace around an airport submit information about the proposed construction to the FAA. The FAA then conducts an aeronautical study, the outcome of which is a determination as to whether the object would be a potential hazard to air navigation. If the proposed object is determined to pose a hazard, the FAA may object to its construction and issue a detennination of a hazard to air navigation, examine possible revisions of the proposal to eliminate the problem, -require that the project be appropriately marked and lighted as an airspace obmotion, and/or initiate changes to the aircraft flight procedures for the airport so as to account for the object.
The dimensions of the imaginary surfaces Vary depending on the type of approach to a particular runway based on the ultimate dimensions shown on the airport layout plan. Where imaginary surfaces overlap, the lowest surface is used to determine whether or not an object would be an obstruction to air navigation. The FAR Part 77 horizontal surfaces limit the height of structures on a project site to an elevation of 203.68 feet above mean sea level (AMSL) reference National Geodetic Vertical I)aturn of 1929 (NOWD 29) consistent with current Orange County Surveyor Adjustment Datum,
in addition to the FAR Part 77 requirements, the County of Orange imposes specific height restrictions on buildings and other structures in the environs of TWA.

City of Newport Beach
February 27, 2006
Specifically, on March 17, 1964, the Orange County Board of Supervisors recorded an "Avigation Easement for Orange County Airport, In Boole 6965, rage 721" covering approximately 18,500 acres around the airport. The avigation easement specifies: "the air avigation easement does not allow buildings or structures to project into the air space above the surfaces shown and defined, and allows aircraft using the Orange County Airport to operate above these surfaces." In the four decades history of the Avigation Easement the Board has, on a case -by -case basis and for substantial financial remuneration, allowed particular non-residential high, -rise buildings to be constructed above, and therefore, into the County s avigation easement elevation of 203.68 feet AMSh in the "horizontal surfaces" area However, also during this tune period, the Board has maintained a. consistent policy of not permitting any residential project to be constructed within the horizontal surfaces. In maintaining this strict standard, the Board has focused on the safety of, and environmental impact to, high- rise residential buildings near JWA that result froin aircraft operations.
The General Plan Update/John Wayne Airport Area boundary falls within the approximate 10,000-foot radius "horizontal surface" area near JWA. The General Plaa and EIR should therefore include a discussion of the County's avigation easement surrounding JWA and the FAR Part 77 requirements, In addition, the General Plan and. EIR should include policies and mitigation measures that restrict the height of buildings consistent with Part 77 and the Counnty's avigation easement height limitations.
D. Obstruction 4igliting and Marking
In addition to the PAR, Part 77 height requirements, the FAA also specifies lighting and marking requirements for structures and related land uses in order to minimize air hazards in the areas surrounding airports. It is important for the City of Newport Beach to impose consistent lighting and marking development standards on all John Wayne Airport Area residential development which requires all development to comply with the conditions and recommendations by the FAA with respect to obstruction lighting and/or marking consistent with the criteria provided in FAA Advisory Circulars 70/7460-1 and 70/7460-IK.
E, DiscloSare of JWA Proximity
California Civil Code sections 1103.4(c)(1) and 1353(a), and California Business and Professions Code sections 11010(a) and 11010(b)(12)(13) require the disclosure of airport noise, vibration, mid odors in expert -prepared natural hazard disclosure reports for residential property sales or lease. Specifically, if the property is located
FEB.27.2005 4=26PM AIRPORT LAND USE COMMISSION NO.292 P.9f10 Gregg RanireZ
City of Newport Beach
February 27, 2006
within the airport i4u,ence area of JWA, the report must contain the follOwing statement:
"NOTICE OF AIRPORT IN VICWITY
This property is presently located in the vicinity of an airport, within what is known as an airport influence area. For that reason, the property may be subject to some of the annoyances or inconveniences associated with proximity to airport operations (for example: noise, vibration or odors).
Individual sensitivities to those annoyances can varyfrom person to person.
You may wish to consider what airport annoyances, if any, are associated with the property before you complete your purchase and determine whether they are acceptable to yore."
The General Play policies and EIR mitigation measures for residential development in. the JWA planning subarea should include this Notice of Airport in Vicinity notification requirement.
F. Deed Disclosure Notice
Ea addition to the disclosure of JWA pro�c ty notice requirements discussed above, General flan policies and EIR mitigation measures should specify that deed disclosure notice requirements be imposed on all John Wayne .Airport Area residential development, A "Deed Disclosure Notice" of the avigation easement should be submitted to the City and signed as a part of each sales/rental/lease agreement.
G. Signage
It is important that the General Plan and EIR recognize the noise impacts associated with outdoor recreational use (as opposed to indoor residential use). In this regard, the General plan and EIR. slxould include policies and mitigation measures for signage on all John Wayne Airport Area park and recreational development indicating the presence of operating aircraft.
I . Detash,)&T atensity Limitations
It is important that the General Flan and EIR recognize the safety impacts associated with development in proximity to the Airport. The overall objective of safety compatibility criteria is to minimize the risks associated with potential

Page q
aircraft accidents. There are two components to this objective, however. The most fundamental safety compatibility component is to provide for the safety of people and property on the ground in the event of an aircraft accident near an airport, The other important component is to enhance the chances of survival of the occupants of an aircraft involved in an accident which takes place beyond the immediate runway enviromnent. Specific compatibility strategies must consider both components of the safety compatibility objective. The primary strategy is to limit the use (the number of people concentrated on the site) in locations most susceptible to an off -airport aircraft accident. The most direct method of reducing the potential severity of an aircraft accident is by the establishment of criteria limiting the maximum number of dwellings or people in areas close to the airport.
The General flan and EIR should include policies and mitigation measures that recognize these compatibility strategies related to safety concerns.
We appreciate your efforts to address the issues contained in this letter and look forward to continuing to work with you in connection witl-L the preparation and approval of the City of Newport Beach General Plan Update and EIR in order to ensure that the General Plan and EIR provide adequate means for implementing policies and enforcing EIR mitigation measures, to the extent possible, to minimize the impact of airport operations on residential development within the General Plan. uea near IWA.

SUBJECT: NEWPORT BEACH GENERAL PLAN UPDATE
Dear Mr. Ramirez:
AM FEB 2 i 2006 PM
19110 t11112 `1,213141516
On behalf of the property owners of the Newport Banning Ranch we appreciate the opportunity to offer comments to your Notice of Preparation ("NOP") of a Draft Environmental Impact Report in support of the City's General Plan Update. We have been participating in the General Plan Update through attendance at the various community workshops, committees and via testimony before the City Planning Commission and City Council.
Although some sentiment exists for acquisition of the entire Banning Ranch property for open space purposes, the property owners believe a high quality master planned re -development of the site holds the most promise. For many decades the Banning Ranch has been used for oil and gas production and these uses still encumber most of the site. In addition to land value, we believe the open space acquisition option in the City's General Plan needs to consider the significant additional costs associated with proper oil field closure and consolidation as well as the fiscal realities related to subsequent habitat restoration and long term maintenance obligations.
The owners have attempted to work with all interested parties on acceptable General Plan thresholds for the future use and/or development of the property. These thresholds for the property would allow for up to:
a) 1375 residential dwelling units,
b) 75,000 square feet of retail commercial uses,
c) a 75 room coastal inn, and
d) open space preservation and recreational uses.
In reviewing table 3 of the City's NOP document, we noticed an effort had been made to essentially allocate the proposed 1375 dwelling units as one-half multi -family and MP605502 - 1

one-half single family units. We expect the project to provide a range of residential housing types based on future planning and market studies and as such, would not want to be constrained by an artificial allocation at the present time. Table 3 also makes reference to up to 500 students as a proposed use. We assume this allocation is made in context of the property owned by the Newport -Mesa Unified School District. Although unknown at the present time, it is possible future discussion and planning with the school district could result in addressing school needs with offsite facilities. If that were the case, we would not want to create the burden of a future General Plan Amendment. We are not in a position to represent the views of the school district on this matter but would propose the 500 student reference to represent an "allowable but not mandatory" use for General Plan purposes. Finally, table 3 also shows what appears to be 60 acres of Park/Open Space. We acknowledge and support the City's desire to reflect adequate park and open space in a future re -use of our property but do not understand where the referenced acreage number came from and therefore are not in a position to offer our consent.
We anticipate the Banning Ranch will feature large areas devoted to natural open space preserves, trails and active recreation uses. The precise size and location of which will be determined through a collaborative planning process.
In closing, we look forward to continuing our efforts to work with the City and its residents on the General Plan Update.
Sincerely,

Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on the Notice of Preparation/Initial Study for and Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the City of Newport Beach General Plan Update. The General Plan Update includes the existing City of Newport Beach boundaries and its sphere of influence.
Caltrans District 12 status is a reviewing agency on this project at this time and would like to work in active partnership with the local jurisdictions and the private sector to ensure that:
1. The General Plan states policies stressing Caltrans coordination and early involvement in project and program development.
2. The General Plan addresses the fact that Caltrans has regulatory authority over certain developments that directly or indirectly impact State Transportation facilities.
3. The General Plan, specifically the Transportation/ Circulation element takes the regional overview of the transportation issues, problems, and solutions in to consideration. Including language requiring the City to develop policies stressing coordination between the City and Caltrans early in the land use and transportation planning process.
4. Caltrans right of way and possible need for encroachment permits are identified.
If you have any questions or need to contact us, please do not hesitate to call Maryam Molavi at (949) 724-2267.

Description The General Plan Update defines comprehensive land use, noise, housing, circulation, and infrastructure, public service, resource conservation, and public safety policies for the entire City.
While policies regarding future land use and growth are addressed from a citywide perspective, the majority of land use changes are limited to nine primary tudy areas. Accordingly, the EIR will comprehensively address the impacts of all policies thoughout the City and, additionally, focus on those areas in which the most significant land use changes could occur.

We have determined that the proposed Plan is regionally significant per California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (Section 15206). The project is a local General Plan Update. SCAG bases review of such plans on its adopted regional plans:
Destination 2030: 2004 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide (RCPG) —1996 Version Compass Growth Vision
CEQA requires that EIRs discuss any inconsistencies between the proposed project and the applicable general plans and regional plans (Section 15125 [d]). Please state separately how the proposed plan will or will not support each regional plan. Please cite specific policies in the regional plans that the proposed plan supports. if there are inconsistencies, an explanation and rationalization for such inconsistencies should be provided. Visit www.Sca-q.ca.gov for downloadable versions of these documents.
SCAG a!sc offers the following, comments:
The Compass Growth Vision embraces strategic residential infill to achieve improved mobility, livability, prosperity, and sustainability. It appears that the proposed Newport Beach General Plan Update would encourage a better jobs -housing balance in existing employment centers. Please explain how the Newport Beach General Plan Update will or will not encourage such policies consistent with the Compass Growth Vision.
Please provide a minimum of 45 days for SCAG to review the EIR when this document is available. If you have any questions regarding the attached comments, please contact me at (213) 236-1851. Thank you.

Notice of Preparation of a Draft Environmental Impact Report for City of Newport Beach General Plan Update
The South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) appreciates the opportunity to comment on the above -mentioned document. The SCAQMD's comments are recommendations regarding the analysis of potential air quality impacts from the proposed project that should be included in the Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR). Please send the SCAQMD a copy of the Draft EIR upon its completion. In addition, please send with the Draft EIR all appendices or technical documents related to the air quality analysis and electronic versions of all air quality modeling and health risk assessment files.
Air Quality Analysis
The SCAQMD adopted its California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Air Quality Handbook in 1993 to assist other public agencies with the preparation of air quality analyses. The SCAQMD recommends that the Lead Agency use this Handbook as guidance when preparing its air quality analysis. Copies of the Handbook are available from the SCAQMD's Subscription Services Department by calling (909) 396-3720. Alternatively, 'lead agency may wish to consider using the California. Air Resources Board (CARE) approved URBEMIS 2002 Model.
This model is available on the SCAQMD Website at: www.agmd . og v/cega/models.html.
The Lead Agency should identify any potential adverse air quality impacts that could occur from all phases of the project and all air pollutant sources related to the project. Air quality impacts from both construction and operations should be calculated. Construction -related air quality impacts typically include, but are not limited to, emissions from the use of heavy-duty equipment from grading, earth-loading/unloading, paving, architectural coatings, off -road mobile sources (e.g., heavy-duty construction equipment) and on -road mobile sources (e.g., construction worker vehicle trips, material transport trips). Operation -related air quality impacts may include, but are not limited to, emissions from stationary sources (e.g., boilers), area sources (e.g., solvents and coatings), and vehicular trips (e.g., on- and off -road tailpipe emissions and entrained dust). Air quality impacts from indirect sources, that is, sources that generate or attract vehicular trips should be included in the analysis.
Consistent with the SCAQMD's environmental justice enhancement I-4, in October 2003, the SCAQMD Governing Board adopted a methodology for calculating localized air quality impacts and localized significance
Mr. Gregg B. Ramirez, Senior Planner -2- January 31, 2006 thresholds (LSTs). LST's can be used in addition to the recommended regional significance thresholds as a second indication of air quality impacts when preparing a CEQA document. Therefore, when preparing the air quality analysis for the proposed project, it is recommended that the lead agency perform a localized significance analysis by either using the LSTs developed by the SCAQMD or performing dispersion modeling as necessary. Guidance for performing a localized air quality analysis can be found at hiip:// www.aqmd.goy/ceq,a/handbook/LST/LST.html .
It is recommended that lead agencies for projects generating or attracting vehicular trips, especially heavy-duty diesel -fueled vehicles, perform a mobile source health risk assessment. Guidance for performing a mobile source health risk assessment ("Health Risk Assessment Guidance for Analyzing Cancer Risk from Mobile Source Diesel Idling Emissions for CEQA Air Quality Analysis") can be found on the SCAQMD's CEQA webpages at the following internet address: hiip:// www.gqmd.gov/ceqa/handbook/mobile toxic/mobile toxic html. An analysis of all toxic air contaminant impacts due to the decommissioning or use of equipment potentially generating such air pollutants should also be included.
Mitigation Measures
In the event that the project generates significant adverse air quality impacts, CEQA requires that all feasible mitigation measures that go beyond what is required by law be utilized during project construction and operation to minimize or eliminate significant adverse air quality impacts. To assist the Lead Agency with identifying possible mitigation measures for the project, please refer to Chapter 11 of the SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook for sample air quality mitigation measures. Additionally, SCAQMD's Rule 403 — Fugitive Dust, and the Implementation Handbook contain numerous measures for controlling construction -related emissions that should be considered for use as CEQA mitigation if not otherwise required. Other measures to reduce air quality impacts from land use projects can be found in the SCAQMD's Guidance Document for Addressing Air Quality Issues in General Plans and Local Planning. This document can be found at the following internet address:
http://www.aqmd.izoy/prdas/agizuide/agguide html. Pursuant to state CEQA Guidelines §15126.4 (a)(1)(D), any impacts resulting from mitigation measures must also be discussed.
Data Sources
SCAQMD rules and relevant air quality reports and data are available by calling the SCAQMD's Public Information Center at (909) 396-2039. Much of the information available through the Public Information Center is also available via the SCAQMD's World Wide Web Homepage ( http://www.agmd.gov) .
The SCAQMD is willing to work with the Lead Agency to ensure that project -related emissions are accurately identified, categorized, and evaluated. Please call Charles Blankson, Ph.D., Air Quality Specialist, CEQA Section, at (909) 396-3304 if you have any questions regarding this letter.

General Plan Update
Notice of Preparation/Initial Study
January 2006
By Fax- 949.644.3229
Dear Mr. Ramirez,
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the NOP for the General Plan Update. I have the Following questions that should be addressed in the EIR:
1. Table 3. City of New -port Beach General Plan Update Existing and Proposed Land Use. Can you provide a total of how many residential units (du) will be added to the existing dwelling units under the Existing, Current OP and Proposed GP, and what the incremental changes are? For example, l now have to add the Existing NIFR and SFR to get 39,369 du, I have to add 29,504 NTR to 19,570 SFR to get 49,074 du under the Current GP, and l have to add Proposed MFR 34,303 plus 20,402 SFR to get 54,705 du under the Proposed General Plan.. Thus, the Proposed General Plan will have 15,336 more du than existin& and 5,631 du more than the Current CrP, and the Current GP over existing is 5,631. This is important for people to know how much the City will grow under the different SGenarlos.
2_ What is the growth in population who will occupy the dwelling units, and what is the per cent growth compared to the existing?
3. What is the number of people per household under the different categories of Existing, Current GP, and Proposed GP?
4. What percent growth in population will occur under the Current GP and the Proposed GP?
5. What is the number of park acreage required under the Quimby Act and will the proposed GP meet these requirements?

6, Table 4, Transportation improvements under Proposed General Platt Update.
There are 13 additional intersection improvements with project proposed. The EIR should identify what actions need to be taken at each of these locations. Will land need to be acquired to improve the intersections? If so, from whom and at what cost? If land is not acquired, how will the improvements be accomplished?
7. Will parking need to be removed from the sides of streets to accomplish widening of highways such as Coast Highway in Mariners Mile?
& Will land need to be acquired to widen streets? From whom? At what cost?
9. The EIR should examine eliminating alternatives that are not feasible, such as the 19'h St3reetBanning Bridge over the Santa Ana River. Both the cities of Huntington Beach and Costa Mesa are actively working to eliminate this bridge from the County Master Platt of Arterial Highways. What will happen to Newport Beach traffic circulation if this bridge is not built? The traffic alternatives should include this very possible scenario in the EIR. For example, the city of Costa Mesa has proposed a series of alternatives to mitigate for loss of the bridge. These alternatives can be obtained from the City Manager of Costa Mesa and should be included in the MR.
10. How will the recently announced decision of the city of Irvine to add an overlay of 10,000 dwelling units near John Wayne Ala port and Jamboree affect the circulation of Newport Beach and its capacity to handle the traffic from the development? See attached article from the Daily Pilot February 13, 2006 entitled: Housing flans worry Newport".
Thanks again for the opportunity to comment on the NOR Please put me on the mailing list for the EIR notices.
Sincerely,
Jan D. Vandersloot, MD

1. INTRODUCTION
SECTION 1.0 — INTRODUCTION
In August of 2003, EIP conducted reconnaissance -level biological surveys to supplement and refine information presented in the City of Newport Beach, California, Local Coastal Plan — Biological Appendix (Chambers Group and Coastal Resources Management, December 2002) and the City of Newport Beach, California, General Plan — Newport Beach Biological Resources (Chambers Group and Coastal Resources Management, January 2003). A detailed mapping and characterization of seven "Environmental Study Areas" (ESAs) — Banning Ranch, Buck Gully, Coastal Foredunes, MacArthur -San Miguel, Morning Canyon, Semeniuk Slough, and Spyglass Hill — was performed to provide further detail on the habitat composition and quality of each ESA, including the presence of potential waters/wetlands of the U.S., and the habitat's potential to support special -status species. From these data, a ranking system was developed, based on inherent habitat value, to evaluate the sensitivity of the ESAs to future development and guide the City with respect to biological resource permitting and ultimate development of the site(s)
1.1 PURPOSE OF STUDY
EIP Associates was contracted by the City of Newport Beach to supplement the findings presented in the City of Newport Beach, California, Local Coastal Plan — Biological Appendix (Chambers Group and Coastal Resources Management, December 2002) and the City of Newport Beach, California, General Plan — Newport Beach Biological Resources (Chambers Group and Coastal Resources Management, January 2003).
A Local Coastal Plan (LCP) is required under provisions of the California Coastal Act and is a basic planning tool used by local governments to guide development in the coastal zone, in partnership with the Coastal Commission. The Biological Appendix prepared for the City of Newport Beach, California, Local Coastal Plan in December 2002 included the delineation of 19 Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Areas (ESHAs), which are defined by the California Coastal Act as areas in which "plant or animal life or their habitats are either rare or are especially valuable because of their special role in an ecosystem that could easily be disturbed or degraded by human activities or development." The City of Newport Beach determined that the data used to delineate four of the ESHAs (Semeniuk Slough, Buck Gully, Morning Canyon, and Banning Ranch) was not detailed enough for the area to warrant designation as an ESHA. This document aims to provide the detail necessary to allow the Coastal Commission the ability to determine what areas, if any, within these four ESAs may be designated as ESHAs. An additional Non-ESHA Sensitive Habitat (p. 4-58 in City of Newport Beach, California, Local Coastal Plan) — the Coastal Foredunes — was also re-evaluated for the same purpose. This refinement of the habitat mapping of these areas will facilitate the decision -making process associated with any proposed development in these areas.
The Biological Resources section of the General Plan is intended to serve as an update to the City of Newport Beach, California, General Plan by identifying ESHAs in Newport Beach that warrant protection. The Biological Resources Report for the General Plan includes the delineation of nine areas previously designated P:\Projects-All Employees\10579-02 Newport Beach Bio\Addendum\addendum.doc 1 -1 December 8, 2003
1. Introduction
as ESHAs, two of which (MacArthur and San Miguel, and Spyglass Hill) the City concluded warranted additional analysis. As above, this document aims to provide the detail necessary to allow the City and Coastal Commission the ability to determine what areas, if any, within these two ESAs may be designated as ESHAs, according to criteria in the California Coastal Act. Refinements to maps based on this additional data will allow the City and potential developers to facilitate the decision -making process surrounding development proposed in these areas.

2. METHODOLOGY
SECTION 2.0 — METHODOLOGY
2.1 LITERATURE REVIEW/INFORMATION SEARCH
Information on occurrences of special -status species in the vicinity of the Study Area was gathered from the California Department of Fish and Game's (CDFG) Natural Diversity Data Base (CDFG, 2003) and the California Native Plant Society's (CNPS) Electronic Inventory of Rare and Endangered Vascular Plants of California (CNPS, 2003) for the quadrangles containing the Study Area (i.e. Newport Beach, Tustin, and Laguna Beach 7.5 minute quadrangles). The CNDDB and CNPS Electronic Inventory are historical observation records and do not constitute an exhaustive inventory of every resource.
Additional background on biological resources within the study area was derived from the Preliminary Descriptions of the Terrestrial Natural Communities of California (Holland, 1986), the California Native Plant Society's Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants of California (Tibor, Ed., 2001), The Jepson Manual — Higher Plants of California (Hickman, J.C., Ed., 1993), and the Draft Program Environmental Impact Report Newport Banning Ranch Local Coastal Program (PCR, 2000).
Lastly, EIP biologists reviewed the City of Newport Beach, California, Local Coastal Plan — Biological Appendix (Chambers Group and Coastal Resources Management, December, 2002) and the City of Newport Beach, California, General Plan — Newport Beach Biological Resources (Chambers Group and Coastal Resources Management, January, 2003) for relevant information on the specific ESAs covered in this report.
2.2 HABITAT VALUE RANKING
Basis of the Ranking System
For this report, EIP Associates has developed a system to rank specific areas within each of the respective ESAs based on a composite score of variables that collectively represent habitat quality. Habitats are attributed a low (3), moderate (2) or high (1) rank based on the number of positive or negative ecological attributes or functions (see below) in each area. In general, the more positive attributes or functions maintained by the habitat, the higher the rank, whereas areas with more negative attributes or functions are ranked lower. Moderate and highly ranked habitats are those more ecologically valuable and more likely to be adversely affected by development.
The following attributes were evaluated in ranking the various habitats within each ESA:
• Ability of the habitat to support special status species (recorded or potential) • Waters of the U.S. or jurisdictional wetlands
• DFG/CNDDB Sensitive Community (e.g. sage scrub, dune, etc.) • Degree of habitat integrity / connectivity
P:IProjects -All EmployeesM579-02 Newport Beach BioOddendumladdendum.doc2-2 December 8, 2003
2 — Methodology
While most of the above habitat characteristics are easily documentable from a variety of sources, habitat integrity/connectivity is a more subjective measure of biological value, which considers various attributes affecting a given habitat's quality in a particular geographic area. Attributes contributing to (or detracting from) habitat integrity include:
• Patch size and connectivity— Large "pieces" of habitat adjacent to or contiguous with similar or related habitats are particularly useful for more mobile species that rely on larger territories for food and cover.
• Presence of invasive / non-native species — Invasive/non-native species often provide poorer habitat for wildlife than native vegetation. Proliferation of exotic plant species alters ecosystem processes and threatens certain native species with extirpation.
• Disturbance — This includes disturbance due to human activities such as access (trails), dumping, vegetation removal, development, pollution, etc.
• Proximity to development — Habitat areas bordering development provide marginal habitat values to wildlife due to impacts from negative edge effects. This proximity presents the possibility of secondary effects to the habitat due to spillover or human intrusion. Deterioration of habitat results from intrusion of lighting, non-native invasive plant species, domestic animals, and human activity. • Fragmentation — The converse of "connectedness", habitat fragmentation is the result of development of large areas of undisturbed, contiguous habitat. The resulting breaking up of these areas into isolated, disjunct parcels can create barriers to migration, reduce wildlife food and water resources and generally compress territory size to reduce existing wildlife populations to nonviability.
Fragmentation increases negative edge effects, whereby the interior area of habitat is affected by the different conditions of the disturbance on its edges. The smaller a particular habitat is, the greater the proportion of its area which experiences the edge effect, and this can lead to dramatic changes in plant and animal communities. In general, loss of habitat produces a decline in species total population size, and fragmentation of habitat can isolate small sub -populations from each other. This process leads to conditions whereby animals and plant species are endangered by local, then more widespread, extinction.

2 — Methodology
Use of the Ranking System
The habitat ranking system can be used to direct development away from higher -value habitats or, at a minimum, indicate which areas will likely receive a greater level of resource agency scrutiny in the permitting process. It may also be used to guide mitigation.
Specific habitats within the respective ESAs are attributed a rank of 1 (high value) where proposed development would definitely require a resource permit, including, but not limited to:
1. U.S. Clean Water Act, Section 404 Permit through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers -waters of the U.S. and associated wetlands;
2. U.S. Endangered Species Act, Section 7 or 10 consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service — Listed threatened or endangered species or those proposed for listing;
3. California Fish & Game Code, Section 2081 Incidental Take Permit from the California Department of Fish and Game - Threatened or endangered species or those proposed for listing under the California Endangered Species Act;
4. California Fish & Game Code, Section 1601-1603 Streambed Alteration Agreement with the California Department of Fish and Game — waters of the State.
Habitats with a rank of 2 (moderate value) maintain significant characteristics to support the presence of special status plant and wildlife species. Proposed development in these areas will require additional field surveys to determine if resources are present, which would necessitate permitting activities.
Habitats with a rank 3 (low) are generally predominated by non-native species or otherwise exhibit a history of disturbance that make resource permitting a very unlikely requirement in these areas.
2.3 FIELD SURVEYS
Reconnaissance -level field surveys of were conducted on August 25, 26, and 27, 2003, by Ron Walker and Joshua Boldt of EIP Associates to examine each ESA in order to describe existing resources and to determine their distribution and relative abundance. Surveys focused on identification of areas exhibiting characteristics of natural or undisturbed habitats and areas that could potentially support special -status plant or wildlife species. Surveys of each ESA were conducted on foot and, in each, habitat types were identified and mapped and observed wildlife and plant species were recorded.
Surveys were conducted following a period of elevated precipitation for the Newport Beach area. While precipitation totals for the 2001-2002 wet season were well below average (3.55 in., average is 11.52 in.), those for the 2002-2003 wet season were slightly above average (14.73 in.)

2 — Methodology
( http://www.oc.ca.gov/prfd/envres/Rainfall/rainfalldata.asp) . Consequently, the composition of vegetation communities — in particular annual species and the extent of wetland areas —was likely to be representative of what is typically found in years of average precipitation.
2.4 MAP PREPARATION
Maps and data were created in GIS (Geographical Information Systems) format at a 1:2400 scale, or 1 inch = 200 feet, using ArcView 3.2a, using aerial photographs, coastal zone boundaries, ESA boundaries (Chambers, 2002, 2003) roads, parks, and parcels as base layers. Field observations and measurements were used to subdivide habitats within the existing ESA boundaries. Roads (either dirt or paved) that bisected a habitat were included within the boundaries of an ESA; whereas roads at the edge of an ESA were excluded. The subdivided ESAs were then ranked according to their relative value and resource permitting requirements.
Maps of all the ESAs were printed out, using the aerial photos as a base
2.5 ESA DEFINITION
When the City of Newport Beach drafted the first Local Coastal Program (LCP) Land Use Plan in the 1980s, the term "environmentally sensitive habitat area" was used to identify riparian areas, wetlands, intertidal areas, and other habitats that are considered to be environmentally sensitive. These environmentally sensitive habitat areas were described as being located on all or portions of twelve large areas. In 2002, a biological assessment study was conducted for use in updating the biological resource sections of the LCP Land Use Plan (Chambers Group and Coastal Resources Management, December, 2002) and the General Plan (Chambers Group and Coastal Resources Management, January, 2003). This biological assessment study carried over the term "environmentally sensitive habitat area" or "ESHA" to describe twenty-eight areas, including the twelve areas described in the existing LCP Land Use Plan.
The California Coastal Commission staff advised City staff that describing areas as ESHAs should be given careful consideration given the limitations on development within these areas as set forth in Section 30240(a) of the Coastal Act. Section 30240(a) requires the protection of environmentally sensitive habitat areas against any significant disruption of habitat values and limits uses to only those that are dependent on those resources. Consequently, subsequent drafts of the LCP Land Use Plan now identify these areas as "environmental study areas" (ESAs) to distinguish their geographic identification from the ESHAs that may be located within them. To avoid further confusion, this addendum to the 2002 biological assessment study has been prepared to more correctly identify the twenty-eight areas (nineteen in the coastal zone and nine outside of the coastal zone) as "environmental study areas."
ESAs are typically undeveloped areas supporting natural habitats that may be capable of supporting sensitive biological resources. An ESA may support species and habitats that are sensitive (e.g. wetlands) and rare P:IProjects -All EmployeesM579-02 Newport Beach BioOddendumladdendum.doc2-5 December 8, 2003

within the region or may function as a migration corridor for wildlife. ESAs may contain areas referred to as Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Areas (ESHAs), as defined under Section 30107.5 of the California Coastal Act. These are areas in which "plant or animal life or their habitats are either rare or are especially valuable because of their special nature or role in an ecosystem that could easily be disturbed or degraded by human activities or development". While an ESHA is, by Coastal Commission definition, a sensitive habitat, an ESA, as defined in this report, requires further study to determine if such a designation is appropriate or if a given area contains resources of particular value or concern.

SECTION 3.0 — BIOLOGICAL HABITATS
3.1 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY AREAS
A variety of diverse, valuable, and sensitive habitats occur within the City of Newport Beach. Environmental Study Areas (ESAs) are those portions of the City that contain natural habitat. An ESA may contain areas that are considered ESHAs.
3.1.1 Semeniuk Slough (Oxbow Loop)
3.1.1.1 Description
Semeniuk Slough is a remnant channel of the Santa Ana River that historically drained into West Newport Bay and is still exposed to limited tidal influence through a tidal culvert connected between the Santa Ana River and the slough. The 76.74-acre site is bordered by the Newport Shores residential development to the south, the Santa Ana River to the west, and the Banning Ranch ESA to the north and east (Figures 2-3). The ESA is located on the USGS Newport Beach 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle. The Semeniuk Slough ESA includes the main slough channel immediately north of Newport Shores and the coastal salt marsh habitat to the north, including a narrow sliver of salt marsh habitat in the far north of the ESA, flanked by the Santa Ana River on the west and the Banning Ranch ESA on the east. Several smaller interconnected channels and inundated depressions are located throughout the salt marsh habitat.
Semeniuk Slough is predominantly an open -water estuary, with southern coastal salt marsh as the predominant fringing vegetation and chenopod scrub and ornamental vegetation as a less significant component of the ESA. Southern coastal salt marsh vegetation on -site is dominated by pickleweed (Salicornia virginica), alkali heath (Frankenia salina), California cord grass (Spartina foliosa), California sea -lavender (Limonium californicum), and salt grass (Distichlis spicata), with shore grass (Monanthohloe littoralis), fleshy jaumea (Jaumea carnosa), and saltwort (Batis maritima) as associated species. Sea -fig (Carpobrotus chilensis) has invaded some of the upland portions of the salt marsh habitat in areas adjacent to disturbance.
Other ornamental plant species found along the margin of the main slough channel, primarily in the eastern and southern section of the ESA near Newport Shores, include myoporum (Myoporum sp.), acacia (Acacia sp.), Mexican fan palm (Washingtonia robusta), pine (Pinus sp.), and eucalyptus (Eucalyptus sp.). An island in the southwest part of the ESA has been graded or otherwise disturbed in the recent past and the resulting plant community is less established than the surrounding salt marsh. This area is dominated by a mixture of salt marsh species, such as salt grass, heliotrope (Heliotropium curassavicum), and pickleweed, and upland ruderal species, such as burclover (Medicago sp.) and melilotus (Melilotus sp.) A small area of chenopod scrub occurs along the levee separating the Santa Ana River and the Semeniuk Slough ESA and is dominated by saltbush (Atriplex sp.)

Special -Status Species (Known Occurrences)
The following special -status species have recorded CNDDB occurrences or other known occurrences within or adjacent to the Semeniuk Slough ESA:
• Centromadia parryi ssp. australis (southern tarplant) (CNPS 1B) (CNDDB Occurrence #65): This occurrence of southern tarplant is from the "Newport Slough, south of the oil fields on the edge of the salt marsh and the access road." This is mapped at the western end of the access road north of the main slough channel in the Semeniuk Slough ESA. More than 100 plants were observed in 1998.
This population is presumed to still be present.
• Suaeda esteroa (Estuary seablite) (CNPS 1 B) (CNDDB Occurrence # 13): This occurrence of estuary seablite is from the "Newport Slough, south of the oil fields on the edge of the salt marsh and the access road." This is mapped along the margin of the access road north of the main slough channel, east of the southern tarplant occurrence, in the Semeniuk Slough ESA. This population is presumed to still be present.
• Passerculus sandwichensis beldingi (Belding's savannah sparrow) (CSC) (CNDDB Occurrence # 43):
The location of this occurrence of Belding's savannah sparrow is the "Santa Ana River mouth, Newport Slough area." The CNDDB maps this occurrence on the entire southwest portion of the ESA. 17 pairs were observed in 1996, and 36 pairs in 2001. This population is presumed to still be present. In addition, this species is known to breed in nearby areas including Upper Newport Bay and salt marsh habitat in Huntington Beach (MEC 1991).
P:IProjects-All EmployeesM579-02Newport Beach BiolAddendumladdendum.docM December8, 2003
3. Biological Habitats
• Aphanisma blitoides (aphanisma) (CNPS 1 B) (CNDDB Occurrence # 23): The information for this occurrence is from a 1932 herbarium collection from "Costa Mesa, along base of sea cliffs." It is mapped along the bluff separating Banning Ranch from Highway 1 and Semeniuk Slough. Although this population is presumed to still be present, it has not been observed since 1932. • The California least tern (Sterna antillarum) (FE, SE), which has a large nesting colony on the Huntington Beach side of the Santa Ana River mouth, forages occasionally in the slough channels (Atwood and Minsky 1983).
• Small numbers of western snowy plover (Charadrius alexandrinus nivosus) (FT, CSC) breed in the Huntington Beach least tern colony in some years (Gallagher 1997). Western snowy plovers are observed occasionally in Semeniuk Slough (MEC 1991).
• The California brackish water snail (Tryonia imitator) (FSC) has been collected in substantial numbers in the channels of Semeniuk Slough (MEC 1991).
Waters/Wetlands of the U.S.
The entire Semeniuk Slough ESA site is salt marsh/open estuary, except for small area of chenopod scrub along western border.
Integrity
The Semeniuk Slough ESA is a relatively large, uninterrupted coastal salt marsh. It is hydrologically and tidally connected to the Santa Ana River, which empties into the Pacific Ocean, and is also contiguous with the large Banning Ranch ESA on its northern and eastern borders. This provides wildlife with a relatively large, diverse area for foraging, shelter, and movement. The proximity to the Newport Shores residential development has introduced numerous ornamental and non-native species to the eastern perimeter of the site, and also allows use of the sloughs for recreational use. A few oil -well related structures are located in the southern part of the ESA, immediately north of the main slough channel. The land surrounding these structures has been cleared. Two roads bisect the ESA - one leading from the Santa Ana River levee to the Banning Ranch area, and the other leading to the oil well structures.

3.1.2 Buck Gully
3.1.2.1 Description
The Buck Gully ESA is a steep, open canyon extending 2.5 miles from Little Corona Beach to Newport Coast Drive in the San Joaquin Hills (Figures 9-12). The canyon is divided by the Coast Highway. The lower section extends from Little Corona Beach to the Coast Highway and the larger, upper section stretches from the Coast Highway to Newport Coast Drive. The 261.95-acre ESA is bordered by the Pacific Ocean and Little Corona Beach to the west, and residential and commercial development to the east, north, and south of the site. The Buck Gully site is located on the Laguna Beach 7.5-minute USGS topographic quadrangle.
The Buck Gully ESA is dominated by Diegan coastal sage scrub and southern mixed chaparral, with southern willow scrub, annual grassland, and coastal freshwater marsh occurring as smaller components of the community. Diegan coastal sage scrub and southern mixed chaparral encompass the majority of the gully - from the upper rims to the alluvial bottoms. A narrow ribbon of southern willow scrub riparian habitat is supported by an unnamed creek that flows along the canyon bottom the length of the gully. Patches of annual grassland occur throughout the chaparral and coastal sage scrub habitats and also in areas where native vegetation has been cleared for fire prevention.
The narrow, western reach of the canyon is largely encroached upon by the adjacent residential areas to the southeast and northwest. The upper slopes in this area of the canyon support a mix of disturbed southern mixed chaparral, a small patch of coastal sage scrub, and non-native ornamental vegetation originating from the surrounding homes. Typical chaparral species in this area include toyon (Heteromeles arbutifolia), laurel sumac (Malosma laurina), and ceanothus (Ceanothus sp.) Non-native and ornamental species include giant reed (Arundo donax), acacia, eucalyptus, myoporum, Mexican fan palm, Brazilian pepper tree (Schinus terebinthifolius), Peruvian pepper tree (Schinus molle), castor bean (Ricinus communis), tree tobacco (Nicotiana glauca), pampas grass (Cortaderia sp.), and fennel (Foeniculum vulgare). The canyon bottom in this area is dominated by riparian vegetation including willows (Salix spp.), blackberry (Rubus sp.), cattail (Typha sp.), and bulrush (Scirpus sp.). A small freshwater marsh comprised almost exclusively of cattail is situated at the mouth of the gully adjoining Little Corona Beach.
The central section of the canyon immediately northeast of the Coast Highway, while closely confined by residential development, contains fewer ornamental plant species than the coastal portion and supports southern mixed chaparral and southern willow scrub habitats with species compositions similar to the lower canyon. The chaparral in this area supports toyon, laurel sumac, ceanothus, chamise (Adenostoma fasciculatum), lemonadeberry (Rhus integrifolia), scrub oak (Quercus berberidifolia), southern honeysuckle P:IProjects-All EmployeesM579-02Newport Beach BiolAddendumladdendum.doc3-5 December8, 2003
3. Biological Habitats
(Lonicera subspicata), redberry (Rhamnus crocea), bush monkey flower (Mimulus aurantiacus), and sugar bush (Rhus ovata).
Approximately adjacent to the intersection of 5th Avenue and Poppy Avenue, the gully veers east and opens into a broader canyon. The southern slopes of the canyon in this area support dense stands of southern mixed chaparral, while the northern slopes support disturbed annual grassland, possibly established as chaparral and coastal sage scrub, but subsequently cleared for fire prevention by homeowners. At present, the annual grassland contains black mustard (Brassica nigra), tocalote (Centaurea melitensis), artichoke thistle (Cynara cardunculus), wild oats (Avena fatua), soft chess (Bromus hordeaceus), barley (Horedum sp.), ripgut brome (Bromus diandrus), and fennel. Diegan coastal sage scrub becomes more dominant as the canyon slopes on the upper portions of the canyon veer eastward. This community is composed of California sagebrush (Artemisia californica), California buckwheat (Eriogonum fasciculatum), white sage (Salvia apiana), prickly pear (Optunia sp.), coyote brush (Baccharis pilularis), blue elderberry (Sambucus mexicana), laurel sumac, lemonadeberry, and California bush sunflower (Encelia californica).
The canyon floor of Buck Gully supports a southern willow scrub community, dominated by willows and mule fat (Baccharis salicifolia), with occasional western sycamore (Platanus racemosa) and cottonwood (Populus fremontii). Associated plant species include cattail, blue elderberry, poison oak (Toxicodendron diversilobum), rush (Juncus spp.), and nutsedge (Cyperus sp.).
The upper canyon is broader than the lower canyon and is therefore less impacted by adjacent development.
Vegetation in this area is primarily Diegan coastal sage scrub and southern mixed chaparral, interrupted by occasional patches of annual grassland, and southern willow scrub associated with the creek at the canyon bottom.

Special -Status Species (Known Occurrences)
The following special -status species have recorded CNDDB occurrences within the Buck Gully ESA:
• Euphorbia misera (cliff spurge) (CNPS 2) (CNDDB Occurrence # 21): The location for this occurrence is listed as "Corona del Mar State Beach" and consists of a total of three colonies at the following locations: "Inspiration Point south of Orchid Ave. at Ocean Blvd.; adjacent to Glen Dr./Beach Dr.; and south of Glen Dr." This first location is just north of the mouth of Buck Gully. A "Glen Dr." does not exist in Newport Beach, but the colonies associated with these locations are assumed to be in the general vicinity of the first colony. 60 plants were observed in 1989. This population is presumed to still be present.
• Dudleya multicaulis (many -stemmed dudleya) (CNPS 1 B) (CNDDB Occurrence # 94): The source for this occurrence is a 1908 herbarium collection from "Corona del Mar bluffs." This population has not been relocated and is believed to be no longer present. • Quercus dumosa (Nuttall's scrub oak) (CNPS 1 B) (CNDDB Occurrence # 3): This occurrence is reported to be due east of the corner of 5th Ave. and Poppy Ave. in Buck Gully in an area of chaparral R:Projects-All EmployeesM579-02Newport Beach BiolAddendumladdendum.doc3—U December8, 2003

and coastal sage scrub. Four to seven plants were observed in 1991, and this occurrence is presumed to still be present.
• Lasthenia glabrata (Coulter's goldfields) (CNPS 1 B) (CNDDB Occurrence # 58): Location information for this occurrence is "Buck Gully, about one mile upstream from Highway 1." Two plants were observed in 1998 in a clay depression near willow woodland in the valley bottom. This occurrence is presumed to still be present.
Waters/Wetlands of the U.S.
The unnamed creek channel flowing the length of Buck Gully is a likely water of the U.S. Sections of the riparian corridor and the coastal freshwater marsh at the mouth of the canyon near Little Corona Beach may also be considered "associated wetlands."
Integrity
The lower (western) portion of Buck Gully is isolated from the upper Buck Gully by the Coast Highway. This area is closely confined by residential development on the south and north. The proximity to development, accessibility by local residents and their pets, and abundance of non-native ornamental plant species detract from the quality of habitat for wildlife species in this area. The upper (eastern) portion of Buck Gully is a broad, open, relatively undisturbed canyon. Coastal sage scrub and mixed chaparral dominate much of the area, except for the riparian corridor along the canyon bottom and the tops of the canyon, which are influenced by the adjacent residential development. Much of the native vegetation near the rim of the canyon has been removed to reduce wildfire hazard.
Ornamental and non-native plant species from the adjacent residential development have encroached into Buck Gully, especially in the lower, narrow portions. Annual grasslands in Buck Gully consist of non-native annual grasses and forbs. Some non-native inclusions were also observed in the Diegan coastal sage scrub, southern mixed chaparral, and southern willow scrub habitats.
3.1.3 Morning Canyon
3.1.3.1 Description
Morning Canyon, an 8.26-acre ESA perpendicular to the coastline, is located between Corona Highlands and Cameo Highlands above the Coast Highway, and between Shore Cliff and Cameo Shores on the ocean side of Coast Highway (Figure 9). Morning Canyon is bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west, Pelican Hills Golf P:IProjects-All EmployeesM579-02Newport Beach BiolAddendumladdendum.doc3-9 December8, 2003
3. Biological Habitats
Course to the east, and residential development to the north and south. This ESA is located on the Laguna Beach 7.5 minute USGS topographic quadrangle.
Morning Canyon is characterized by disturbed, remnant, southern mixed chaparral vegetation on the canyon floor and along the upland slopes. This area, however, contains few remaining native species and is dominated by non-native and ornamental species that have invaded the canyon from adjacent residential areas located immediately to the northwest and southeast. Native plant species in the remnant southern mixed chaparral community include coyote brush, toyon, mountain mahogany (Cercopcarpus betuloides), lemonadeberry, and blue elderberry. Non-native species include fennel, pampas grass, acacia, date palm (Phoenix sp.), fig (Ficus sp.), hottentot fig (Carpobrotus edulis), Himalayan blackberry (Rubus discolor), tree tobacco, pittosporum (Pittosporum sp.), and castor bean.
The canyon bottom once supported a southern willow scrub and willows, mule fat, and mugwort (Artemisia douglasiana) can still be observed growing among the dominant non-native vegetation, though these species are no longer common enough to consider this habitat to be southern willow scrub. Non-native plant species now dominate the bottom and lower slopes of the canyon and include giant reed, acacia, hottentot fig, eucalyptus, myoporum, Mexican fan palm, Brazilian pepper tree, Peruvian pepper tree, pampas grass, ivy (Hedera sp.), and fennel.
Although most of the native riparian -associated species have been displaced by non-native and ornamental species, the area is still used by riparian wildlife, such as American crow (Corvus brachyrhyncus), northern mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos), mourning dove (Zenaida macroura), cedar waxwing (Bombycilla garrulous), English sparrow (Passer domesticus), raccoon (Procyon lotor), and opossum (Didelphis virginiana). The presence of a perennial watercourse along with a structurally diverse woody vegetation community provides the necessary habitat attributes that are essential to riparian -associated species.

The lower, southwestern section of Morning Canyon is separated from the upper section of Morning Canyon by the Coast Highway. The entire canyon is very narrow and closely bordered by residential development on the northwest and southeast, the Pacific Ocean to the southwest, and the Pelican Hills Golf Course at the northeastern edge of the area. Ornamental species have completely displaced native vegetation in much of canyon and now dominate throughout the majority of this ESA. Pets from the adjacent residences likely use the area and further discourage wildlife use of the canyon.
3.1.4 MacArthur and San Miauel
3.1.4.1 Description
The 7.69-acre MacArthur and San Miguel ESA (Figure 7), consists of two relatively small and isolated patches of undeveloped land divided by San Miguel Drive, and bordered by Avocado Avenue to the northwest and MacArthur Boulevard to the southeast. The area south of San Miguel Drive is bordered by an open lot to the south (north of the Central Library), while the area north of San Miguel Drive is bordered by San Joaquin Hills Road to the northeast. The site is located on the USGS Newport Beach 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle.
The area south of San Miguel Drive is 3.54 acres of predominantly Diegan coastal sage scrub habitat, consisting of California sagebrush, deerbrush (Lotus scoparius), and coyote brush, along with the non-native tocalote and scattered instances of prickly pear. Other common, non-native species include black mustard and various grasses. The perimeter of this portion of the site has been previously disturbed by adjacent road development and several ornamental species occur immediately outside the boundaries of this area, including eucalyptus, myoporum, and Peruvian pepper tree. Much of the adjacent undeveloped land - particularly the large lot separating the site from the Central Library - supports ruderal vegetation.
Two drainages intersect in the middle of this parcel. An east -west flowing drainage supports a limited amount of disturbed southern willow scrub habitat containing willow, cattails, bulrush and mule fat. The north -south flowing drainage supports a small seasonal wetland consisting of cattail and duckweed (Lemna sp.) The area north of San Miguel Drive consists of 4.15 acres dominated by mowed annual grassland containing ripgut brome, wild oat, soft chess, Bermuda grass (Cyonodon dactylon), Bermuda buttercup (Oxalis pes- P:IProjects-All EmployeesM579-02Newport Beach BiolAddendumladdendum.doc3-12 December8, 2003

There are also some scattered coyote brush, California sagebrush, and saltbush (Atriplex sp.) shrubs typically associated with the coastal sage scrub that likely dominated the site prior to development. This area has been graded adjacent to MacArthur Boulevard, but then slopes steeply towards Avocado Avenue. A public transit center on the northern third of this parcel is bordered by ornamental (Mexican fan palm and pine) trees and turf grass, which also occur at the corner of MacArthur Boulevard and San Miguel Drive. Two concrete -lined ditches - one adjacent to Avocado Avenue and the other crossing the site near San Miguel Drive — drain the area.

Although suitable habitat exists for these species within the MacArthur/San Miguel ESA, the small, fragmented nature of the area and its proximity to development, makes it unlikely that most species would utilize this area.
Special -Status Species (Known Occurrences)
There are no recorded occurrences of special -status species in the CNDDB for the MacArthur/San Miguel ESA.
Waters/Wetlands of the U.S.
The two drainages traversing the parcel south of San Miguel Drive, along with the small seasonal wetland associated with the north -south flowing drainage, could be potential "waters of the U.S." The concrete -lined ditches north of San Miguel Drive are, however, not likely to be considered "waters of the U.S." Integrity
This ESA is relatively small in size (7.69 acres) and completely isolated from any adjacent, associated habitats by urban development, thereby precluding the use of this ESA by most wildlife species. This proximity to R:Projects-All EmployeesM579-02Newport Beach BiolAddendumladdendum.doc3-14 December8, 2003

development has introduced numerous ornamental and non-native species to the perimeter of the site, further reducing the integrity of the ESA. The fact that the area north of San Miguel Drive is maintained in a mowed condition makes use of this area by wildlife highly unlikely.
3.1.5 Spyglass Hill
3.1.5.1 Description
The 17.31-acre Spyglass Hill ESA includes the uppermost reaches of Big Canyon (Figure 8). The site consists of a well-defined canyon with vegetated slopes bordered by residential development and a seasonal, southeast to northwest flowing drainage at the canyon bottom. This ESA is west of Spyglass Hill Road and northeast of Mission Bay Drive. The site is located on the USGS Newport Beach 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle.
This community is dominated by the Diegan coastal sage scrub and southern mixed chaparral, with several ornamental trees along the northeast -facing slope, just up from the vegetated canyon bottom. In addition, native vegetation immediately adjacent to the residential development has been cleared for fire prevention purposes.
The upland areas on the north and east slopes of the main drainage support dense Diegan coastal sage scrub habitat, dominated by California sagebrush, coyote brush, lemonadeberry, California buckwheat, deerweed, white sage, and laurel sumac. Slopes south and west of the drainage support southern mixed chaparral, dominated by toyon, ceanothus, coyote brush, bush mallow (Malacothamnus sp.), scrub oak, live oak (Quercus agrifolia), bush monkey flower, poison oak, blue elderberry, lemonadeberry, and chamise. The drainage itself is ephemeral and therefore is unable to support typical riparian habitat. It is characterized by species associated with the Diegan coastal sage scrub to the northeast and the southern mixed chaparral to the southwest.

Waters/Wetlands of the U.S.
The unnamed creek channel flowing the length of through this ESA is a potential waters of the U.S.
Integrity
The Spyglass Hill ESA is a relatively undisturbed area of high -quality Diegan coastal sage scrub and southern mixed chaparral. Except for the area immediately adjacent to the residential development to the west and southwest, the habitats in the Spyglass Hill ESA are almost entirely composed of native species. However, this ESA is completely isolated from any adjacent, associated habitats by residential development, and overall the area is relatively small (17.31 acres). This is an ideal example of fragmented habitat. While supporting undisturbed native vegetation communities, the isolated nature of the area possibly precludes its use by many wildlife species.
3.1.6 Coastal Foredunes
3.1.6.1 Description
Foredune habitats are identified by stands of dense to sparse annual and perennial herbs, grasses, or shrubs occurring on sand dunes along the coast. In Newport Beach, southern coastal foredune habitat extends southwest, from 10th Street to the tip of the Balboa peninsula along the ocean side of Balboa, immediately adjacent to the bike lane (Figures 4-6). The vegetation in this community is generally sparse with overall cover ranging from 20 to 70 percent in some areas, while other areas are completely devoid of vegetation. Areas of open sand fragment this southern coastal foredune habitat. Dominant plants include non-native species such as sea -fig, hottentot fig, sea rocket (Cakile maritima), and native purple sand -verbena (Abronia umbellata), beach evening primrose (Camissonia cheiranthifolia), beach morning glory (Calystegia soldanella), and beach P:IProjects-All EmployeesM579-02Newport Beach BiolAddendumladdendum.doc3-17 December8, 2003
3. Biological Habitats
bur (Ambrosia chamissonis). Many areas are almost completely covered by sea -fig and hottentot fig, which seem to have been introduced from the residences fronting the beach area. Although many areas within the Coastal Foredunes ESA have extensive non-native cover, these species are considered to be a component of southern coastal foredune habitat and were therefore not mapped differently from those areas supporting a predominance of native species.

This occurrence is presumed to still be present.
Waters/Wetlands of the U.S.
No potential wetlands/waters of the U.S. were observed during biological surveys within the Coastal Foredunes ESA.
Integrity
Ornamental and non-native species, likely introduced from the adjacent residences, dominate much of the southern coastal foredune habitat in this ESA. Numerous residences use the beach area as an extension of their backyards and residents have planted and irrigated the ornamental species that have replaced native species in these areas. Increased human activity and public access also adversely impact these dune habitats, as evidenced by the numerous trails bisecting the dunes.
3.1.7 Banning Ranch
3.1.7.1 Description
The 282.40-acre Banning Ranch ESA is located near the mouth of the Santa Ana River (Figures 13-14). This ESA is bordered to the northeast and east by residential and commercial development, to the north by Talbert Regional Park, to the south by West Coast Highway, and to the south and west by the Newport Shores residential community and the Semeniuk Slough ESA. The Banning Ranch site is located on the Newport Beach 7.5 minute USGS topographic quadrangle.
P:IProjects-All EmployeesM579-02Newport Beach BiolAddendumladdendum.doc3-19 December8, 2003
3. Biological Habitats
The Banning Ranch ESA encompasses four distinct topographic features that influence the type and character of biological resources on the site. The western edge of Newport Mesa, which comprises much of the eastern portion of the site, represents a coastal plane that slopes gently from east to west. Historic oil -extraction related infrastructure is found throughout the mesa, including the location of wells, pipelines, buildings, improved and unimproved roads, and open storage pipes and machinery.
Bluffs form the western edge of the mesa, which are very steep along the southern and southwestern edges of the mesa, but become less severe in the north. These bluffs provide a transition between mesa uplands to the east and the lowlands to the west.
The bluffs and mesa are incised at various points along their/its length by a number of drainages. Two of these drainage features - one in the southern portion of the site and one in the northern portion - are markedly larger than the others and referred to as "arroyos".
The majority of the lowlands in the western portion of the project site were historically tidal marsh associated with Semeniuk Slough. The construction of a levee between the Banning Ranch lowlands and Semeniuk Slough removed the former from tidal influence, very likely to facilitate oil extraction activities. Subsequent channelization of the Santa Ana River and oil extraction activities at Banning Ranch, dating back at least 75 years, have altered these lowlands area to where they are now characterized by narrow channels and low pockets of periodically -standing water in some areas. Tidal influence is presently limited to only 4.8 acres at the southwest corner of the lowlands. The entire area supports a network of roads, pipelines, oil derricks, and a few buildings.
Plant communities on the Banning Ranch property range from relatively undisturbed native to highly disturbed exotic populations. Upland (mesa) areas generally support southern coastal bluff scrub and non-native grassland, while the lowlands support riparian and wetland vegetation. Current plant communities include: (1) southern coastal bluff scrub; (2) sage scrub -grassland ecotone/sere; (3) annual grassland; (4) ruderal (uplands); (5) ruderal wetlands; (6) vernal pool; (7) alkali meadow; (8) southern coastal salt marsh; (9) coastal brackish marsh; (10) mulefat scrub; (11) southern black willow forest; (12) developed areas; (13) disturbed areas; and (14) ornamental vegetation (Figures 13-14).
Scattered portions of both upland and lowland areas of Banning Ranch contain ruderal vegetation dominated by non-native grasses and forbs. Plant species associated with this community include black mustard, wild radish (Raphanus sativus), pampas grass, fennel, and filaree (Eroidum sp.). The lowland portions of this ESA consist of ruderal wetlands, alkali meadows, southern coastal salt marsh, and coastal brackish marsh.
Ornamental vegetation occurs throughout the site, though primarily in the upland areas, and include hottentot- fig, myoporum, and eucalyptus.

The following special -status species have recorded CNDDB occurrences or other known occurrences within or adjacent to the Banning Ranch ESA:
• Centromadia parryi ssp. australis (southern tarplant) (CNPS 1B) (CNDDB Occurrence #64): This occurrence of southern tarplant is from the "south end of the Newport oil fields in disturbed areas adjacent to oil pipelines" and is mapped near the southwestern border of the Banning Ranch ESA near its boundary with the Semeniuk Slough ESA. More than 1000 plants were observed in 1998. It was also observed on Banning Ranch by PCR during surveys conducted in 2000 for the Draft Program Environmental Impact Report Newport Banning Ranch Local Coastal Program (PCR, 2000).
This population is presumed to still be present.
• Aphanisma blitoides (aphanisma) (CNPS 1 B) (CNDDB Occurrence # 23): The information for this occurrence is from a 1932 herbarium collection from "Costa Mesa, along base of sea cliffs" and was mapped along the bluff separating Banning Ranch from Highway 1 and Semeniuk Slough. Although this population is presumed to still be present, it has not been observed since 1932. • San Diego fairy shrimp (Branchinecta sandiegoensis) (FE) was documented by PCR during surveys conducted in February and March 2000 for the Draft Program Environmental Impact Report Newport Banning Ranch Local Coastal Program (PCR, 2000) from the vernal pool and a small depression immediately to the south.

3. Biological Habitats
• Coastal California gnatcatcher (Polioptila californica californica) (FT, CSC) has been observed primarily within coastal bluff scrub onsite during focused surveys from 1992 to 1998. 19 pairs were observed in 1992 and between 1993 and 1996, the number of observed pairs ranged from 16 to 29. 17 pairs were observed in 1997, and 19 pairs were observed in 1998 (PCR, 2000). • Coastal cactus wren (Campylorhynchus brunneicapillus) (CSC) Ten pairs were observed in 1997 and seven pairs were observed in 1998 (PCR, 2000).
• The following special -status species were observed either on -site or flying over the area during surveys conducted by PCR for the Draft Program Environmental Impact Report Newport Banning Ranch Local Coastal Program (PCR, 2000): California least tern, yellow warbler, Belding's savannah sparrow, southwestern willow flycatcher, northern harrier, Cooper's hawk, golden eagle, sharp - shinned hawk, white-tailed kite, and osprey. No further details about these observations were given.
Waters/Wetlands of the U.S.
A 1998 wetland delineation performed by PCR determined there were 57.5 acres of jurisdictional waters on Banning Ranch, including 57.15 acres of jurisdictional wetlands and 0.35 acre of unvegetated channels. The majority of these wetlands are in the lowland portion in the northwest part of the ESA, with other jurisdictional areas associated with four drainages originating at various locations on the upper portions of the site. In addition, one vernal pool was identified near the central portion of the site (PCR, 2000).
Integrity
The Banning Ranch ESA is a large, relatively undeveloped, but historically disturbed assemblage of diverse habitats that, together with the contiguous Semeniuk Slough ESA, provides wildlife with a significantly large, diverse area for foraging, shelter, and movement. Infrastructure related to oil exploration and extraction is scattered throughout the area, especially in the northern portion of the mesa, degrading the native habitats where they occur. Much of the land surrounding developed areas (i.e. oil infrastructure) is disturbed and does not support any vegetation. Improved and unimproved roads bisect the entire ESA, fragmenting habitat and creating increased areas of "edge effect". Areas supporting annual grassland and ruderal vegetation communities are dominated by non-native species, typically annual grasses and forbs. Ornamental species are found throughout the site, primarily in upland areas. The entire Banning Ranch ESA is closed to public access, though pets from nearby residences and feral domestic animals are common transients through these habitats.
P:IProjects-All EmployeesM579-02Newport Beach BiolAddendumladdendum.doc3-24 December8, 2003
3. Biological Habitats
While disturbance associated with the oil infrastructure does diminish the quality of habitat in the Banning Ranch ESA to some extent, the overall area should be regarded as relatively high -quality wildlife habitat due to its large size, habitat diversity, and continuity with the adjacent Semeniuk Slough ESA.
3.2 SUMMARY
The information in this report is presented as a supplement to the City of Newport Beach, California, Local Coastal Plan — Biological Appendix (Chambers Group and Coastal Resources Management, December 2002) and the City of Newport Beach, California, General Plan — Newport Beach Biological Resources (Chambers Group and Coastal Resources Management, January 2003). Together with the ESA maps provided in Figures 2-14, this information can facilitate the decision -making process associated with any proposed development in these areas. This will guide the City in focusing development in areas with the fewest impacts to biological resources and attempting preservation and protection in areas with the highest biological value. The habitat value ranking system presented in this report will also guide resource permitting efforts of prospective developers by indicating which sub -areas of the studied ESAs either definitely will require some level of permitting or for which additional studies need to be performed to determine whether such permitting is required.

GENERAL PLAN TRANSPORTATION STUDY
ES.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This Executive Summary concisely summarizes all of the information in the Newport Beach General Plan Transportation Study (Urban Crossroads, Inc., March, 2006). For full details, the reader should also review the main body of the report. This report summarizes the Existing conditions and buildout alternatives traffic analysis completed for the City of Newport Beach General Plan update. Existing conditions are described and two General Plan buildout alternatives are evaluated: Without Project (buildout of existing General Plan) and With Project (buildout of proposed General Plan) conditions.
The buildout alternatives are analyzed using a roadway system that incorporates the constrained roadway network (with only those improvements from the currently adopted General Plan Circulation Element that have not been deemed "uncertain"), with the addition of the 19th Street bridge over the Santa Ana River, and the widening of Coast Highway through Mariner's Mile. Alternative modes of transport are also discussed in the report.
ES.1 Trip Generation
Trip generation is the initial step in determining future traffic conditions. Trip distribution (where people are going) and traffic assignment (what route, what time of day, and even what direction people are going) are equally important parts of the traffic forecasting process.
The potentially beneficial effects achieved through improved mixes of complimentary land use leads to the true measure of future traffic volumes and, most importantly, intersection peak hour operations. As demonstrated in subsequent sections of this report, the slightly increased trip generation for the ES-1
With Project scenario compared to the Without Project (currently adopted General Plan) scenario actually results in a decrease in the number of projected intersection deficiencies with no improvements to the roadway system) and a reduced list of the needed roadway improvements.
Trip generation calculations have been performed for existing, Without Project, and With Project scenarios. Tables ES-1 through ES-3 summarize the results of this analysis for daily, AM peak hour, and PM peak hour conditions, respectively.
Citywide trip generation for the Without Project scenario is projected to increase by 27%. For the With Project scenario, trip generation is expected to increase by 31 %, a difference of 4%. Existing represents 2002 conditions, consistent with the rest of the Environmental Impact Report. Existing differs slightly from previously published reports as the data sets continue to be reviewed, refined, updated, and generally improved. Increased trip generation / volume may not necessarily increase congestion. The effects are dependent on many other factors, including peaking characteristics of traffic, directional split, even quantity of cross -street traffic.
Trip generation rates were derived during the Newport Beach Traffic Model update to reflect conditions in Newport Beach. In Coastal areas, residential uses were found to generate less traffic than in other areas of the City. Daily Coastal trip generation is approximately 85 to 87% of trip generation in the majority of the City. Therefore, an adjustment of approximately 12 to 15% was made in trip generation for land uses in this area as part of the traffic model validation and is reflected in the General Plan Transportation Study.
The analysis documented herein is a series of steps that lead, ultimately, to the real meaning: How does the system work during peak traffic hours, with the recommended / planned improvements?
This is the real measure of performance, not changes in trip generation or traffic volumes.

ES-5
This General Plan updated traffic analysis demonstrates that the proposed General Plan results in less congestion than we have today. This is a result of better land use planning, combined with more effective roadway improvements.
In conjunction with earlier analysis of land use alternatives, research was conducted to determine whether trip rate adjustments are appropriate for certain kinds of land uses being considered in the Newport Beach General Plan update.
For mixed use developments, it was found that there is a range in trip generation savings of 10-40%. The adjustment applied for the Newport Beach General Plan Transportation Study is 10%, at the conservative end of research findings. High- rise apartments have been shown to generate up to and beyond 40% fewer trips than typical apartments. To portray a conservative worst case scenario, a factor of 20% is used for high-rise apartments in this General Plan Transportation Study.
ES.2 Daily Traffic Volumes
The latest version of the Newport Beach Traffic Model (NBTM) has been used to evaluate each of the General Plan buildout alternatives. The model has been updated in this process to incorporate the most current demographic data available for areas outside the City of Newport Beach, and the most current income statistics available within the primary study area. Daily traffic volumes for Existing conditions is shown on Exhibit ES -A.
Peak season daily traffic volumes have been collected for select locations (primarily in coastal areas) of the City of Newport Beach. Daily traffic volume counts were collected over a one week period in August of 2003 for each selected roadway segment, and are included in Appendix "J". For each roadway segment selected for summertime counts, the highest typical weekday (Tuesday through Thursday) volume has been compared to the shoulder season count volume at the same location. All segments increase for summer conditions by at least 5% and as much ES-6
as 74%. The only location with a volume increase of more than thirty (30) percent is on Balboa Boulevard east of 20th Street on the Peninsula.
Review of the data clearly indicates that Newport Boulevard is the most popular and heavily impacted access route to the beach for summertime traffic.
Jamboree Road and MacArthur Boulevard appear to be the least affected routes, with increases in traffic of between 5 and 10 percent. Newport Coast Drive experiences a higher percentage increase in summertime traffic, but the magnitude of the increase (approximately 3,400 vehicles per day) is very similar to the increase on MacArthur Boulevard north of Coast Highway. The traffic increases along Coast Highway itself are also less than the increases on routes leading to the beach, suggesting that people are oriented towards traveling to the beach/coast, rather than along it.
General Plan buildout Without Project and With Project daily traffic volumes are included in Exhibits ES-B and ES-C, respectively. Growth from Existing to Without Project and With Project conditions has been calculated. The majority of roadway segments increase by less than 10,000 vehicles per day (VPD). Roads expected to carry traffic increases greater than 10,000 vehicles per day are shown on Table ES-4 Without Project and on Table ES-5 With Project. In general, these roads are in the Airport Area or serve regional through traffic as well as local traffic. The only roadway experiencing growth in excess of 15,000 VPD is Newport Coast Drive for both Without and With Project conditions.
A comparison of the change in traffic from Without Project to With Project conditions has also been completed. In general, daily traffic volumes change by 1,000 vehicles per day (VPD) or less on most roadways from the Without to With Project conditions. Volumes on a few roadways (Birch Street, Coast Highway, Jamboree Road, and MacArthur Boulevard) change by as much as 3,000 VPD.

Traffic source analysis, providing information on the destination of roadway users, was performed for three key entries to the City of Newport Beach:
• Northbound Coast Highway, south of Newport Coast Drive • Southbound Coast Highway, south of the Santa Ana River • Southbound MacArthur Boulevard, north of Bonita Canyon Drive For each of the three entries, traffic internal to the City of City of Newport Beach accounts for more than 60% of the vehicles studied, with primary destinations for all three locations being Corona Del Mar, Newport Center, and Bayside / Balboa Island.
ES.3 Intersection Performance
The true measure of traffic flow is peak hour intersection operations. The individual intersection level of service for each of the three scenarios has been summarized in Table ES-6. Comparisons of the three scenarios and the percentage of intersections with each service level are demonstrated in Table ES-7. The current standard for acceptable level of service in the City of Newport Beach is "D". As shown in Table ES-7, over 75% of intersections experience Level of Service "D" or better operations in every scenario. For With Project conditions, approximately 20% of intersections experience deficient operations (12 intersections in the AM peak hour and 14 intersections in the PM peak hour), while the Without Project conditions result in approximately 21 % of intersections experiencing deficient operations (14 intersections in the AM peak hour and 13 intersections in the PM peak hour).
Table ES-8 provides a summary of intersections experiencing deficient operations in any of the three analysis scenarios without additional improvements. In every case where intersection LOS changes from Without to With Project, it is only by one level.

ES-17
Twelve intersections that have acceptable existing operations experience LOS "D" or worse conditions (without improvements) in both General Plan buildout scenarios; two additional intersections experience this change only in the Without Project scenario; one additional intersection experiences this change only in the With Project scenario. These intersections are the following. • Newport Boulevard at Hospital Road (Without Project and With Project) • Newport Boulevard at 32nd Street (With Project)
• Tustin Avenue at Coast Highway (Without Project and With Project) • MacArthur Boulevard at Campus Drive (Without Project and With Project) • Von Karman Avenue at Campus Drive (Without Project and With Project) • Jamboree Road at Campus Drive (Without Project and With Project) • Jamboree Road at Birch Street (Without Project and With Project) • Birch Street at Bristol Street North (Without Project) • Campus Drive/Irvine Avenue at Bristol Street South (Without Project) • Irvine Avenue at University Drive (Without Project and With Project) • Dover Drive at Coast Highway (Without Project and With Project) • Jamboree Road at Bristol Street South (Without Project and With Project) • MacArthur Boulevard at Ford Road/Bonita Canyon Drive (Without Project and With Project)
• SR-73 NB Ramps at Bonita Canyon Drive (Without Project and With Project)
• Marguerite Avenue at Coast Highway (Without Project and With Project) The intersections that experience deficient operations in the Without Project (currently adopted General Plan) condition, but do not experience the same deficiency in the With Project conditions are Birch Street at Bristol Street North (in the AM peak hour) and Campus Drive/Irvine Avenue at Bristol Street South (in the AM peak hour). These intersections are in the Airport Area and serve regional through traffic as well as local traffic.
ES-18
Of the 21 total intersections that require improvements, 12 of the intersections have the same improvements in the Without Project and With Project scenarios.
Six intersections require more improvements for the Without Project scenario when compared to the With Project scenario. Bluff Road at Coast Highway requires multiple additional through lanes to achieve LOS "D." Jamboree Road at Campus Drive would need a third WB left turn lane. For Birch Street at Bristol Street North to operate at LOS "D," the westbound approach needs to be reconstructed to provide 2 left turn lanes, 2.5 through lanes, and 1.5 right turn lanes. It would be necessary to reconstruct Campus Drive at Bristol Street South to provide 2 left turn lanes, 2.5 through lanes, and 1.5 right turn lanes. Dover Drive at Coast Highway would require a fourth westbound through lane.
Jamboree Road at Bristol Street South would need to provide 2.5 left turn lanes,
1.5 through lanes, and 2 right turn lanes.
There are three intersections that require more improvements in the With Project scenario than the Without Project scenario. Newport Boulevard at 32nd Street requires that the eastbound movements be restriped to provide 2 left turn lanes and 1 shared through -right lane, and the westbound movements be restriped to provide 1 left turn lane, 1 through lane, and 1 free right turn lane. MacArthur Boulevard at Jamboree Road would need the addition of a fourth east bound through lane. MacArthur Boulevard at San Joaquin Hills Road requires a fourth northbound through lane.
Improvements have been suggested that provide operations at a level of service traditionally determined acceptable in Newport Beach (LOS "D") at all potentially deficient intersections (outlined within the body of the report). In most cases, these improvements involve spot improvements such as additional turn lanes, rather than extensive roadway widening, and are feasible without significant widenings that could impact community character. Therefore, it is recommended that LOS "D" remain the acceptable standard for the vast majority of intersections in Newport Beach. There are some areas, however, where special circumstances make it infeasible or undesirable to make the improvements necessary to ES-19
maintain LOS "D." For these "exception intersections," listed below, LOS "E" is recommended as the acceptable service standard. It should be noted that this is not a new policy direction for Newport Beach. The existing Circulation Element lists 18 intersections in the Airport Area that were projected to perform at a level of service worse than "D,° and includes a policy that there was a conscious decision to accept these levels of service in the Airport Area and focus efforts to improve service on areas less affected by regional traffic.
O Dover Drive (NS) at Coast Highway (EW): LOS "E"
® Riverside Avenue (NS) at Coast Highway (EW): LOS "E"
Congestion at this intersection is related to regional through traffic and improvement beyond LOS "E" requires significant right-of-way acquisition and widening that could impact pedestrian and bicycle use of the intersection.
® Campus Drive (NS) at Bristol Street North (EW): LOS "E" The barrier that John Wayne Airport presents to through traffic, combined with regional traffic in the Airport Area, causes this intersection to perform below LOS "D". LOS "Y cannot be achieved without extremely costly right-of-way acquisition and improvements.
® Goldenrod Avenue (NS) at Coast Highway (EW): LOS "E"
® Marguerite Avenue (NS) at Coast Highway (EW): LOS "E" The widening of Coast Highway through Corona Del Mar would not achieve LOS D at the intersections of Coast Highway with Goldenrod Avenue and Marguerite Avenue unless one westbound through lane was added at Goldenrod Avenue and the same westbound lane and one eastbound through lane was added at Marguerite Avenue. These additional lanes would require roadway widening and/or
parking/pedestrian facility removal of 12 feet per lane, These improvements are not recommended, as the character of Corona Del Mar as a pedestrian village would be compromised. Localized widening was ES-20
implemented on Coast Highway at Marguerite Avenue, and was removed because it did not work operationally.
Based on these standards, Table ES-9 shows recommended intersection improvements to provide acceptable operations at study area locations for Without Project and With Project conditions. Comparisons of the three scenarios and the percentage of intersections with each service level with recommended improvements are demonstrated in Table ES-10. For With Project conditions, approximately 95% of the locations with recommended improvements operate at LOS "D" or higher. The Without Project conditions with recommended improvements result in over 92% operating at LOS "D" or higher. Approximately 5% of the intersections for With Project conditions (3 intersections in the AM peak hour and 4 intersections in the PM peak hour) operate at LOS "E", while approximately 7% of the intersections for Without Project conditions (4 intersections in the AM peak hour and 5 intersections in the PM peak hour) operate at LOS "E". Exhibit ES-D summarizes the final intersection LOS with improvements for all scenarios.
A comparison of intersection improvements and levels of service to the currently adopted Circulation Element is included in Table ES-11. The currently adopted Circulation Element identified 18 intersections that would operate at unacceptable (with one or both peak periods at LOS "E" and 6 with at least one peak period at LOS "F") conditions. The proposed Circulation Element reduces the number of intersections experiencing LOS "E" to five and none at LOS "F".
ESA Special Issues
Several special issues have been evaluated in this Transportation Study.
Without the potential 19th Street bridge over the Santa Ana River, Bluff Road at Coast Highway and Superior Avenue at Coast Highway experience deficient operations requiring substantial additional improvements. The bridge would provide relief to Coast Highway, resulting in the need for at least one fewer ES-21

The potential extension of the SR-55 freeway is not recommended, as it would result in additional through traffic congestion on Coast Highway through Mariners Mile.
The City Council has identified open space as the preferred use of Banning Ranch, but the analysis contained in this Transportation Study has assumed worst case conditions, including alternate residential and commercial development on the Banning Ranch property. If the open space preservation occurs, roadway segments through the property (Bluff Road and 15th Street) will not be constructed, the relief to Superior Avenue at Coast Highway will not be provided by the new Bluff Road connection, and Superior Avenue at Coast Highway will experience Level of Service "E" conditions. With development on Banning Ranch, Bluff Road at Coast Highway would experience unacceptable levels of service unless the 15th Street extension is constructed. Without this improvement, an additional westbound through lane would be required on Coast Highway to provide LOS "D" conditions at the intersection of Bluff Road at Coast Highway. Based on this analysis it is recommended that two new roadways provide access to Coast Highway through the Banning Ranch property, should the alternate land use be constructed.
The widening of Coast Highway through Mariners Mile is recommended, as it would alleviate congestion through this key stretch of roadway, and the City has already begun reserving right-of-way for this improvement. To facilitate this widening, it is recommended that the City pursue obtaining control of Coast Highway from the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), so that the widening may be constructed to City of Newport Beach standards.
Grade separation for the intersection of MacArthur Boulevard at Jamboree Road is one improvement that was considered to maintain LOS "D" at this location.
During the Visioning Process, citizens indicated a desire to not incorporate additional grade separated intersections in the roadway system. Acceptable ES-32
operations can be achieved with at -grade improvements (a 4th eastbound through lane and a 3rd westbound left turn lane), and those improvements are recommended. The City of Newport Beach (in conjunction with the City of Irvine) is in the process of studying improvement alternatives, including potential grade separation.

1.0 INTRODUCTION AND METHODOLOGY
This report has been prepared in support of the update of the City of Newport Beach General Plan and Circulation Element. This report documents the traffic analysis performed to determine the impacts and provide recommendations in developing the City of Newport Beach General Plan Circulation Element.
This chapter of the report introduces the reader to the existing and General Plan buildout analysis portion of the City of Newport Beach General Plan Circulation Element update project and presents the goals and objectives of the work effort. The General Plan forecasts have been prepared using the Newport Beach Traffic Model, version 3.1 (NBTM
3.1). For detailed discussion of the model, see Newport Beach Traffic Model (NBTM) 3.1 Technical Documentation Report (Urban Crossroads, Inc., December, 2003).
The NBTM 3.1 travel demand forecasting tool has been developed for the City of Newport Beach to identify traffic and circulation issues in and around the City. The NBTM 3.1 tool has been developed in accordance with the requirements and recommendations of the Orange County Subarea Modeling Guidelines Manual (August, 1998) and has been found by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) to be consistent with these guidelines. The NBTM 3.1 is intended to be used for roadway planning and traffic impact analyses, such as:
• General Plan/Land Use analysis required by the City of Newport Beach. • Amendments to the Orange County Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH). • Orange County Congestion Management Program (CMP) analysis.
The NBTM 3.1 is a vehicle trip based modeling tool, and it is intended for evaluating general roadway system supply and demand problems and issues. The NBTM 3.1 has been specifically calibrated to represent "shoulder season" (spring/fall) conditions in the City of Newport Beach, consistent with longstanding practice for traffic analysis in the City of Newport Beach. This is also consistent with current practices at many other local agencies in the region.
1-1
The NBTM has been updated as part of this work effort to incorporate the most current demographic information available, including socioeconomic data outside the primary area, and new income data within the primary area. Examples of substantial changes outside the City of Newport Beach include John Wayne Airport expansion plans, University of California, Irvine (UCI) expansion, as well as reuse of the Marine Corps Air Stations at Tustin and El Toro.
1.1 Goals and Obiectives
The goals of the General Plan Update Traffic Study are to present the existing traffic network, volumes, and evaluation; develop and analyze future General Plan buildout, without and with project, daily and peak hour volume forecasts; compile data for additional transportation systems; present special issues.
1.2 Methodology Overview
This section provides a broad overview of the analysis methodology.
Subsequent sections provide additional detail regarding the forecasting methodology. The overall coverage area of the NBTM 3.1 is depicted on Exhibit 1-A. The NBTM 3.1 coverage area includes the five county urbanized area which is included in the parent Orange County Transportation Analysis Model, Version 3.1 (OCTAM 3.1) tool.
The basic model structure recommended in the subarea modeling guidelines is a "focused" modeling approach. The concept of a focused model is to provide the greatest level of detail within the primary analysis or study area, with the least detail included in those parts of the model which are geographically distant from the primary study area. This concept is further refined in the guidelines as a three tier system.
Tier 1 is the least detailed component of the subarea model. The intent of the Tier 1 level of definition is to provide the minimum amount of detail necessary to accommodate regional traffic as it enters the Tier 2 coverage area. 1-2

The Tier 1 level of detail is not intended to support detailed analysis within the Tier 1 area.
The Tier 2 level of detail corresponds directly to the parent OCTAM 3.1 model, while Tier 3 incorporates more detail than the parent model. Exhibit 1-A also presents the limits of each tier or level of detail. While the Tier 3 area incorporates additional detail surrounding the City of Newport Beach, the City is the primary study area for this work effort.
The primary study area of the NBTM is shown on Exhibit 1-B. The primary study area of the NBTM is generally bounded by the Brookhurst Street/Santa Ana River on the west, Adams Avenue/Baker Street/Campus Drive/SR-73 on the north, Crystal Cove State Park on the east, and the Pacific Ocean on the south. As described previously, Tier 2 area level of detail and vehicle traffic forecasting capability is equal to that of the parent OCTAM 3.1 travel demand forecasting tool.
The Tier 2 area is generally bounded by the northwest Orange County line, 1-5 Freeway, Fairhaven Avenue, Santiago Canyon Road, El Toro Road, Santa Margarita Parkway, Trabuco Creek, and the Pacific Ocean.
The NBTM is derived from the OCTAM 3. 1. Exhibit 1-C provides an overview of the NBTM modeling process. The general modeling steps or processes are:
• Land use to socioeconomic data (SED) conversion
• Trip generation and mode choice
• Trip distribution
• Time of day factoring
• Traffic assignment
• Post -assignment data refinement processing.

The NBTM relies on regional model estimates of trip generation, trip distribution, and mode choice. The model structure accommodates changes in land use/socioeconomic and network characteristics in the following manner:
Trip Generation Trip generation estimates are based on socioeconomic data driven trip generation rates. The primary study
area socioeconomic data is derived from the City of
Newport Beach land use. The calculated trip
generation is then used to adjust the regional trip
generation results to match the more detailed local
NBTM trip generation estimate.
Trip Distribution - Trip distribution estimates are based on trip distribution patterns estimated by the regional travel demand
model and incorporated into the subarea model. The
number of trips attributed to the primary study area in the regional model is adjusted to match the project trip generation using an analytical approach commonly
referred to as the Fratar model. This process
automatically adjusts the trip distribution patterns as necessary.
Mode Choice - Mode choice (driving, riding as a passenger, or taking a bus) is estimated by using regional model mode share
results, which are then incorporated directly into the
subarea model.
Traffic Assignment - Traffic is assigned to the roadway system on the basis of travel time and cost. Tolls (assumed for both
existing and future conditions) are explicitly included in the traffic assignment process using the procedures
obtained from the regional travel demand model.
1-7
Traffic is assigned separately for the AM, mid -day, PM, and nighttime periods of the day, to allow for more
accurate representation of the effects of congestion on the choice of travel routes by drivers.
Post Model Refinements -The goal of the future traffic volume forecast refinement or post model refinement processing is to
utilize all available data to prepare the best possible estimate of future traffic conditions. The NBTM
procedure incorporates 2002 traffic count data, 2002
model validation data (traffic estimates), and future
(raw) model forecasts (estimates) as inputs.
1.2.1 Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) Structure
The overall NBTM TAZ Structure is shown on Exhibit 1-D. The primary study area (City of Newport Beach) TAZ structure is shown on Exhibit 1-E and incorporates 194 TAZs for purposes of aggregating individual land uses to a level of detail suitable for local area modeling. By contrast, the OCTAM 3.1 TAZ system includes 69 TAZs for the same area. The additional TAZ structure detail is intended to support accurate forecasting of traffic on all arterial roadways (as well as study area freeways) within the study area.
The NBTM 3.1 TAZs generally aggregate to the OCTAM 3.1 TAZs within the primary modeling area. This is a requirement of the consistency guidelines.
The only exception/deviation was the Newport Coast area, where the OCTAM TAZs do not correspond to approved circulation and development patterns. OCTA staff indicated that this would be acceptable at a cooperative meeting held on May 22, 2002 at Urban Crossroads, Inc.. on

offices. Within the NBTM 3.1 secondary (Tier 2) analysis area, the NBTM TAZs correspond to the OCTAM 3.1 TAZs on a one-to-one basis Traffic Analysis Districts group areas with similar characteristics for use in traffic source analysis, Fratar Modeling (a trip generation/distribution adjustment process), and occupancy adjustments. Traffic Analysis Districts are shown on Exhibit 1-F.
1.2.2 Land Use to Socioeconomic Data Conversion Process The conversion of land use to SED is the first step in the NBTM modeling process. Exhibit 1-G illustrates the overall land use to SED conversion and trip generation process. The City of Newport Beach maintains land use data that is used for many purposes, including providing input data to the NBTM traffic forecasting process.
Regional modeling consistency requirements necessitate use of consistent input data that provides trip generation estimates that are also consistent with the regional modeling tool. OCTA uses the following variables as the input data for OCTAM 3.1:
• (Total) Population
• Household Population
• Employed Residents
• (Non -Institutionalized) Group Quarters Population
• Occupied Single -Family Households
• Occupied Multiple -Family Households (including all households other than single family households)
• (Total Occupied) Dwelling Units
• Retail Employment
• Service Employment

• Other Employment (Non -Service and Non -Retail)
• Total Employment
• Median Household Income
• Elementary/High School Enrollment
• (Non -Resident or Commuter Student) University Enrollment Many of these variables are self -descriptive. A brief explanation is provided for those variables which are not self -descriptive.
Non -Institutionalized Group Quarters Population: Non -institutionalized group quarters population refers to military personnel living in barracks and students living in dormitories. It also includes similar populations, such as seminaries, convents, orphan homes, agricultural workers living in dormitories/barracks, homes for unwed mothers, and institutional staff (at hospitals, prisons, etc.) who live on the premises where they work.
Retail Employment: The definition is consistent with the definition presented in the documentation for the OCTAM 3.1 (OCTAM 3.1 Summary Documentation and Validation Report, June 2001). Per this definition, all employment falling into Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 52 - 59 is considered retail employment. These codes include retail shops, eating and drinking establishments (SIC 58), etc.
Service Employment: For the purposes of this modeling effort and consistent with OCTAM 3.1, all employment falling into Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 70-89 is considered service employment.
Examples of service employment include hotels and other lodging, personal services (dry cleaners, beauty salons, etc.), auto repair shops, medical/dental offices, educational services (schools, libraries, etc.), and social services.
1-14
Conversion factors for each of the land use codes maintained in the city land use dataset have been developed by Urban Crossroads, Inc. staff.
Table 1-1 shows the SED conversion factors that were the result of this calibration process. Initial factors were derived from previous modeling efforts, then refined to provide socioeconomic data that more closely matches citywide summary data provided by City of Newport Beach staff, and regionally accepted data.
Occupancy factors and SED conversion factors have been differentiated for the "Balboa" area, corresponding to District 3, 9, and 10 on Exhibit 1-F.
For instance, lower retail occupancy is experienced during the "shoulder" seasons represented by the NBTM.
1.2.3 Trib Generation
Subarea models are now required to match (nearly exactly) regional trip generation estimates derived from socioeconomic data (SED) at the regional model traffic analysis zone (TAZ) level for base year and future year consistency scenarios. It has long been recognized that there are differences between land use and SED based trip generation approaches.
These differences have been addressed and reduced in recent years.
The approach taken for NBTM 3.1 is to convert land use to SED and generate traffic that is fairly consistent with the regional trip generation estimates.
Trip generation rates by socioeconomic data variable have been calibrated to provide validated city-wide traffic volumes. Initial rates were found in previous recent studies. Rates were then adjusted to reflect the unique characteristics of the City of Newport Beach. Production and attraction based trip generation rates are shown on Table 1-2. Please note that multi -family residential units do generate Home -Work attractions 1-15

to account for relatively transient employment related to these uses.
Subsequent steps convert production -attraction based trip ends into linked trips, then, via the time of day factoring process, into origin -destination trip tables.
The number of trips generated by a typical dwelling unit (single-family detached, single-family attached, or apartment) is also a function of the dwelling unit population, the number of resident employed workers, employees (e.g. self-employed), and income. Table 1-3 presents example calculations for single-family detached dwelling units, single-family attached dwelling units, and apartments and illustrates the similarity to the land use based trip generation rates used in the previous version of NBTAM.
1.2.4 Trip Distribution
Exhibit 1-H illustrates the NBTM trip distribution process. Separate procedures are employed for consistent scenarios and for scenarios where the local model deviates from the subregional model inputs and assumptions.
1.2.5 Mode Choice
Most mode choice (e.g., drive -along, carpool, transit, etc.) issues are regional in nature, superseding cities' boundaries. For this reason, the NBTM approach is to acknowledge the role of mode choice through data obtained from the regional mode choice model. This data may be used directly for minor adjustments to account for future system refinements. It is necessary to return to the regional model for evaluation of major transit system changes. Adjustments to the NBTM are then reflected in terms of zonal vehicle trip generation adjustments. Regional mode choice survey data directly relevant to Newport Beach is presented to facilitate such minor adjustments.

1.2.6 Time of Dav Factoring
The NBTM 3.1 time of day factors are summarized on Table 1 -4. These factors have been derived from the regional model time of day factoring procedures and modified to reflect local knowledge.
1.2.7 Roadway Network Representation
The NBTM 3.1 network processing procedure replicates the OCTAM 3.1 coding conventions within the study area. The highway network is represented by roadway links. Roadways with the same basic cross-section (number of through lanes and median treatment) exhibit substantial differences in free flow speed and capacity. Factors that can influence roadway speeds and capacities include the number of mid -block access points, signalized intersections per mile, posted speed limit, mid -block traffic control devices such as stop signs, etc.
1.2.8 Traffic Assianment
The OCTAM 3.1 subregional model incorporates four time periods. The NBTM traffic assignment procedure therefore also utilizes four time periods per regional model procedure, with conversion to AM and PM peak hour volumes directly from the AM and PM peak periods, respectively. Conversion factors using local traffic count data have been evaluated in the course of this work effort. The conversion factors specific to Newport Beach have been calculated in the model process and are presented with the count data.
The general model parameters (e.g., coding procedures, time of day origin/destination factors, and traffic assignment procedures) were initially derived directly from the OCTAM model. Most of these parameters remain unchanged. Time of day factors have been modified based on local data to produce better traffic volume forecasts.

1.2.9 Data and Analysis Methodology
The City of Newport Beach has a circulation system consisting of arterial roadways and local streets. State Route (SR-) 55, SR-73 and Highway 1 (Coast Highway) provide regional access to the City. Established transit service also connects the City to nearby communities. A bicycle and pedestrian system is also in place.
For vehicular transportation, a hierarchal roadway network is established with designated roadway types and design standards. The roadway type is linked to anticipated traffic levels. As growth within the City occurs, capacity analysis should be performed and improvements made to the roadway system. Because local circulation is linked with the regional system, the Circulation Element also focuses on participation in regional programs to alleviate traffic congestion and construct capacity improvements.
Plans prepared by Caltrans, the County and other regional agencies guide development/improvement of the regional transportation system. Strategies to handle anticipated traffic levels from future regional development are currently being developed as discussed hereafter.
Existing conditions data has been collected by field verification. Analysts have identified existing roadway network characteristics, and vehicles have been counted at locations throughout the study area. Existing conditions land use data has been provided by City of Newport Beach staff. The existing land use data is combined with the existing roadway system in the Newport Beach Traffic Model (NBTM) development validation scenario.
Adjustments have been made to the existing input data to incorporate the most current demographic data available.
1-24
Future land use and roadway data has been provided by City of Newport Beach staff and the City's planning consultant, EIP Associates. Raw forecasts from the General Plan Buildout scenario of the NBTM have been refined using existing count data and validation model results.
Daily roadway segment analysis (including freeways) requires calculating the daily traffic volume divided by the roadway segment capacity. The City of Newport Beach daily roadway capacities used in this analysis are presented in Table 1-5. For analysis purposes, the upper end of the approximate daily capacity range has been used.
The daily capacity of a roadway correlates to a number of widely varying factors, including traffic peaking characteristics, traffic turning volumes, and the volume of traffic on crossing streets. The daily capacities are therefore most appropriately used for long range General Plan analysis, or as a screening tool to determine the need for more detailed peak hour analysis.
Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) analysis has been performed at sixty- three (63) study area intersections (see Exhibit 1-1). ICU values are used to determine levels of service at study area intersection locations. To calculate the ICU value for an intersection, the volume of traffic using the intersection is compared with the capacity of the intersection. The ICU is usually expressed as a decimal percent (e.g., 0.86). The decimal percent represents that portion of the hour required to provide sufficient capacity to accommodate all intersection traffic if all approaches operate at capacity. 1-25

The daily capacity of a roadway correlates to a number of widely varying factors, including traffic peaking characteristics, traffic turning volumes, and the volume of traffic on crossing streets. The actual daily capacity of a roadway can thus vary widely. The daily capacities are therefore most appropriately used for long range General Plan analysis, or as a screening tool to determine the need for more detailed peak hour analysis.

2.0 EXISTING CONDITIONS
Existing conditions data and analysis is important to provide a benchmark for comparison of future conditions forecasts. Existing data has been provided by City of Newport Beach staff and collected by Urban Crossroads, Inc.
2.1 2001/2002 Land Use Data
Land use data within the primary study area is a key input to the modeling process.
The initial land use data was provided to Urban Crossroads, Inc. staff by the City of Newport Beach. Table 2-1 summarizes the overall 2002 land uses for the City of Newport Beach. Appendix "A" of this report includes a series of reports documenting the explicit land use data included in NBTM 3.1 for 2002 conditions.
The first set of reports in Appendix "A" summarizes the City of Newport Beach land use (provided by City of Newport Beach staff) by NBTM traffic analysis zone (TAZ). The same data are presented again at increasing levels of aggregation, including aggregation to OCTAM TAZs and for the overall City.
2.2 2002 Socioeconomic Data
Socioeconomic data (SED) that has been converted from land use is summarized in Table 2-2. A comparison of SED for the City (as provided by the model) to data received from City staff is shown in Table 2-3. The difference in dwelling unit totals (-5.3%) is attributable directly to a basic difference in the definition of dwelling units. The data provided by the City of Newport Beach includes all dwelling units, while the NBTM (and regional socioeconomic projections) only utilize occupied dwelling units. The population variable matches very closely, as there is no difference in the variable definition. Appendix "B" contains a discussion of employment in Newport Beach prepared by ADE.
Table 2-4 compares the NBTM SED to OCP-2000 existing data by Traffic Analysis District. Table 2-4 includes all of Newport Beach (including recently annexed areas), as well as small parts of adjacent cities (particularly the City of 2-1

Costa Mesa) that are part of the same OCTAM TAZ as a portion of the City of Newport Beach. The totals on Table 2-4 do not match the totals on Table 2-3 for these reasons. Appendix "C" presents the SED resulting from the conversion of land use to SED using the factors previously presented on Table 1-1. The SED from land use is again presented by NBTM TAZ, OCTAM TAZ, and overall City of Newport Beach. The same set of reports is included for supplemental SED (not derived from land use), and for the overall SED (the sum of the SED from land use and the supplemental SED).
Socioeconomic data for the remainder of the Tier 3 area has been disaggregated from OCP-2004 data for year 2000. No growth was assumed from Year 2000 to 2002 because of the recession in California. The data itself is contained in Appendix "C" of this report. The City should coordinate with regional demographers to minimize these differences in future data sets.
2.3 Trip Generation
Table 2-5 summarizes the overall trip generation for 2002 conditions for the City of Newport Beach. Appendix "D" contains a report of trip generation by NBTM TAZ for the City of Newport Beach, broken down by NBTM TAZ and OCTAM TAZ. Most of these trips have been calculated from the final 2002 SED presented previously. The three land use codes listed below had been special generators in the previous NBTAM model:
• Tennis Club
• Marina
• Newport Dunes
For each of these land use categories, supplemental trips have been added to increase the daily trip generation to match the previous rate (see Appendix "D").
The overall trip generation for the City of Newport Beach is an estimated 761,225 daily vehicle trips.

2.4 Home -Work Trio Mode Choice Data
The home -work trip mode choice data provided by SCAG to Urban Crossroads, Inc. initially included mode choice data (travel method used) for home -work (either end in Newport Beach) trips. This mode choice data has been summarized in the form of a spreadsheet listing the names of cities/geographic areas, along with quantities of trips.
Appendix "E" includes the initial data summaries in the form of two separate tables. The first table in Appendix "E" lists the mode choice data for survey respondents living in Newport Beach, while the second table includes the home- work mode choice data for survey respondents whose workplace is in Newport Beach. The mode choice categories analyzed include:
• Drive Alone
• 2 Person Carpool
• 3 or more Person Carpool
• Public Transportation
• Motorcycle
• Non -Motorized
• Other Means
The data has been further grouped into logical geographic areas.
Cities/geographic areas have been grouped by overall County outside Orange County. Within Orange County, cities have been identified as adjacent to Newport Beach, or generally located north of (North County) or south of (South County) the City of Newport Beach. Adjacent cities include Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach, Irvine, and Laguna Beach. The division between North County and South County cities used for this analysis is the SR-55 Freeway.
UK
Tables 2-6 and 2-7 show the results of this analysis for Newport Beach origin trips (residents) and Newport Beach destination trips (persons that work in Newport Beach), respectively. Exhibits 2-A and 2-B depict these results graphically. The majority of trips are drive alone. The second -most used mode for trips with only one end in Newport Beach is 2-person carpool, while the second -most popular mode for Home -Work trips with both ends in the City is non -motorized. Generally, it appears that the accessibility of the City of Newport Beach via transit is most utilized by North Orange County residents who work in the City of Newport Beach. The second highest percentage of workers that utilize transit to travel to the City of Newport Beach is associated with the adjacent cities. Public transportation accounts for less than 2% of all home -work travel to and from the City of Newport Beach for all other geographic areas within the SCAG region. The percentage is actually higher for locations outside the SLAG region, most likely associated with the use of John Wayne airport to travel to and from the City of Newport Beach for more distant destinations.
2.4.1 Trip Distribution Survey Data
Data provided by SCAG related to the origins and destinations of trips made to and from the City of Newport Beach. The trip distribution data was collected in the form of trip diaries in 1991. The trip distribution data was organized into six (6) trip purposes for trips ending or beginning in Newport Beach and summarized by geographic area at the other end of the trip.
Table 2-8 summarizes the geographic data by adjacent cities, north Orange County, south Orange County, and each other county in Southern California represented in the dataset for trips originating in Newport Beach. Exhibit 2-C shows the same data graphically. Appendix 7" contains the background data supporting Table 2-8 and Exhibit 2-C. As might be expected, the highest totals are for trips with both ends within the City of Newport Beach, followed by trips with one end in an adjacent city. on

As shown in Table 2-8, 52% of the trips surveyed are contained within Newport Beach and 80% of the trips originating in Newport Beach are contained entirely in Newport Beach and the adjacent cities. Exhibit 2-D depicts the overall trip purposes summary for trips beginning in Newport Beach. Most trips are Home -Other (38%), with a high number of Home - Work (20%). The categories with fewest trips are Work at Home and Home -Shop. Exhibit 2-E shows the City or County at the other end of the trip for trips originating in Newport Beach. Areas closest to Newport Beach have the most interactions with the City.
Table 2-9 summarizes the geographic data by County (outside Orange County) or portion of Orange County for trips destined for Newport Beach.
Exhibit 2-F shows the same data graphically. Appendix "G" contains the supporting background data for Table 2-9 and Exhibit 2-F. The highest totals are for trips with both ends in the City of Newport Beach (52%), followed by trips from an adjacent city (28%). Exhibit 2-G depicts the overall purposes for trips ending in Newport Beach. Most trips are Home - Other (38%), followed by Home -Work (22%). The fewest trips are Work at Home and Home -Shop. Exhibit 2-H shows the origin City or County for trips destined for Newport Beach. Areas closest to Newport Beach have the most interactions with the City.
2.5 General Model Trio Distribution Results
Model trips with at least one end in the City of Newport Beach have been further analyzed and compared to the regional origin -destination survey data related to the City of Newport Beach. Table 2-10 summarizes this analysis. Model trips which both start and end in the City comprise approximately forty-two (42) percent of the total City of Newport Beach trips (about 290,000 trip ends). The regional survey data indicated 52% capture of trips within the City of Newport Beach. All trips which are 2-17

contained in the City of Newport Beach and the adjacent four cities (Huntington Beach, Costa Mesa, Irvine, and Laguna Beach) make up approximately sixty-six (66) percent of the total trips with at least one end in Newport Beach. The regional survey data again indicates a higher percentage (80%) within this local area. These lower values suggest that the regional socioeconomic data (SED) based models generate fewer trips, then distribute the trips over longer distances.
2.6 Roadway Network
Field review of existing roadways was performed. Exhibit 2-1 shows existing through lanes on Newport Beach roadways. The existing model network matches these configurations.
2.7 Shoulder Season Daily Traffic Volume Data
Daily traffic volume data for locations counted as part of this study effort were collected in Spring/Fall of 2001/2002, and are included as Appendix "H" of this report. Freeway data comes from the Caltrans Publication, Traffic Volumes on State Highways.
Exhibit 2-J presents the daily traffic volumes, which have been used to validate the NBTM. Daily traffic count data has been collected and/or compiled for 64 locations in the City of Newport Beach. Additional daily volume data reported by the California Department of Transportation has been incorporated into the NBTM update work effort. The SR-55 Freeway north of the SR-73 Freeway carries the highest daily traffic volume (approximately 155,000 vehicles per day) in the NBTM primary modeling area. The arterial roadways carrying the highest traffic volume in the NBTM primary modeling area are Coast Highway and MacArthur Boulevard. A daily traffic count of approximately 63,000 vehicles per day was estimated on Coast Highway between Dover Drive and Bayside Drive 2-25

and on MacArthur Boulevard between Bison Avenue and Ford Road. Other roadways carrying traffic volumes in excess of 50,000 vehicles per day (VPD) include:
• Newport Boulevard (maximum volume of 53,000 VPD south of Coast Highway).
• Coast Highway (53,000 VPD east of Newport Boulevard and 51,000 between Bayside Drive and Jamboree Road).
All of the counted daily traffic volume data was input into a roadway segment traffic volume analysis database in 15 minute intervals. A sample size of 55 24-hour traffic counts was evaluated in this study effort. The study areawide volumes were analyzed to determine the peak characteristics for the study area (see Appendix "I"). The results of this analysis are summarized on Table 2-11. The peak hour was determined within typical peak periods (6-9AM and 3-7 PM). For the entire primary study area, the AM peak hour begins at 7:30 AM, and the PM peak hour begins at 4:45 PM.
Individual locations have various peak hour start times, as seen in Appendix "I".
Within Newport Beach, the total volume percent in the peak hours of traffic is approximately 19%. This is higher than the typical value of 16 percent that Urban Crossroads, Inc. staff has observed in various other studies in Orange County and is probably related to the relatively high proportion of employment oriented land uses in the City of Newport Beach.
2.8 Peak Season Daily Traffic Volume Data
Peak season daily traffic volumes have been collected for select locations (primarily in coastal areas) of the City of Newport Beach. Daily traffic volume counts were collected over a one week period in August of 2003 for each selected roadway segment, and are included in Appendix "J". For each roadway segment selected for summertime counts, the highest typical weekday (Tuesday through Thursday) 2-28

volume has been compared to the shoulder season count volume at the same location. Table 2-12 contains the results of this analysis. All segments increase for summer conditions by at least 5% and as much as 74%. The only location with a volume increase of more than thirty (30) percent is on Balboa Boulevard east of 20th Street on the Peninsula.
Review of the data clearly indicates that Newport Boulevard is the most popular and heavily impacted access route to the beach for summertime traffic.
Jamboree Road and MacArthur Boulevard appear to be the least affected routes, with increases in traffic of between 5 and 10 percent. Newport Coast Drive experiences a higher percentage increase in summertime traffic, but the magnitude of the increase (approximately 3,400 vehicles per day) is very similar to the increase on MacArthur Boulevard north of Coast Highway. The traffic increases along Coast Highway itself are also less than the increases on routes leading to the beach, suggesting that people are oriented towards traveling to the beach/coast, rather than along it.
For one special case (Newport Boulevard in front of City Hall), daily traffic volume data was collected every day for three weeks. Appendix X" contains the count data for Newport Boulevard between 32nd Street and Finley Avenue. Although the count collection instrument was on the street for three weeks, a few days had to be removed from the sample for various reasons (e.g. count tube was displaced). A graphic depiction of the variation in daily summer volume is included in Appendix "U. As seen in Appendix "L", daily volumes range from approximately 35,000 to 50,000 with definite peaking trends on summer weekend days.
Table 2-13 provides analysis of daily summer traffic volume patterns over the three weeks collected on Newport Boulevard in front of City Hall. The average summer weekday volume is approximately 40,500 vehicles per day (vpd). The Monday volume is very near this same volume, but traffic is more evenly spread throughout the day. Saturday has the highest average summer volume with 48,144 vpd. The average Friday summer volume is approximately 2,500 vpd greater than the average summer Sunday volume.

2.9 Daily Roadway Segment Analysis
The ratio of daily roadway segment volumes to daily planning level capacities (presented in Table 1-10) provides an initial measure of roadway segment operations. The daily capacity of a roadway correlates to a number of widely varying factors, including traffic peaking characteristics, traffic turning volumes, and the volume of traffic on crossing streets. The actual daily capacity of a roadway can thus vary widely. The daily capacities are therefore most appropriately used for long range General Plan analysis, or as a screening tool to determine the need for more detailed peak hour analysis.
Volume/Capacity (V/C) Ratios for Existing conditions are shown on Exhibit 2-K.
Roadway segments with V/C ratios greater than 0.90 are:
• Newport Boulevard north of Via Lido
• Irvine Avenue north of University Drive
• Jamboree Road north of Bayview Way
• Jamboree Road north of University Drive
• MacArthur Boulevard north of Ford Road
• MacArthur Boulevard north of San Joaquin Hills Road
• MacArthur Boulevard north of Coast Highway
• Irvine Avenue south of University Drive
• Bristol Street North west of Campus Drive
• Bristol Street South west of Campus Drive
• Bristol Street South east of Birch Street
• Bristol Street South west of Jamboree Road
• Coast Highway west of Riverside Drive
• Coast Highway east of Dover Drive
• Coast Highway east of MacArthur Boulevard
• Coast Highway east of Goldenrod Avenue
• Coast Highway east of Marguerite Avenue

More detailed peak hour analysis has been conducted at key intersections in the vicinity of all these roadway segments to quantify actual peak hour operations and levels of service.
2.10 Traffic Source Analysis
Traffic source analysis provides information on the destination of actual roadway users. This analysis has been used in this study primarily to identify through traffic that is utilizing the City of Newport Beach arterial roadway system. Traffic source evaluation was performed in the City of Newport Beach using car following techniques to determine their destinations in late spring of 2002. Three key entries to the City were evaluated in this process:
• Northbound Coast Highway, south of Newport Coast Drive • Southbound Coast Highway, south of the Santa Ana River • Southbound MacArthur Boulevard, north of Bonita Canyon Drive At each of the three locations, 100 cars were followed until they left the arterial system or the City of Newport Beach. The predictive value or accuracy of a sampling process is best evaluated in terms of the sample's confidence interval.
The confidence interval for a sample size of 100 is 10%. Table 2-14 shows the sample percentage of daily (one-way) volume for each source analysis location.
For each vehicle followed, the data includes start time (when the vehicle was on the analysis location), end time (when the vehicle left the City or the arterial system), destination (interim traffic analysis zone or cordon location), vehicle type (brief description of the vehicle), initials, and date. Analysts were directed to select vehicles from each lane, and a variety of vehicle types. The resulting data from this exercise appears in Appendix "M".
As requested by City of Newport Beach staff, data was primarily collected during the peak periods (from 7:00 to 9:00 AM and from 4:30 to 6:30 PM). Appendix "N" 2-35

contains graphs showing time distribution of sample data. This does not correspond to traffic flow patterns in Newport Beach, only to the time of collection. The graphs are provided to demonstrate that the data does reflect at least 30% of samples taken within each of the AM and PM peak periods for each of the three (3) starting point locations.
The City of Newport Beach has been divided into fourteen (14) traffic analysis districts, as shown previously on Exhibit 1-F. For the purpose of this analysis, districts 3 and 10 have been combined. Exhibit 2-L shows through trip destinations (cordon locations). Each cordon location is a roadway segment where vehicles can exit the City. Once a vehicle has left the City of Newport Beach, it is considered an external trip and is not further studied.
Table 2-15 contains a summary of the results for the northbound Coast Highway south of Newport Coast Drive. Internal traffic (with destinations in the City of Newport Beach) accounts for 64% of the vehicles studied. This percentage is slightly lower in the AM peak (60%) and higher in both the PM peak and off peak time frames. The top three traffic districts attracting vehicles from this location are 13, 8, and 9. District 13 roughly corresponds to Newport Coast West / Corona Del Mar. District 8 is approximately Newport Center. District 9 is Bayside/Balboa Island.
Through traffic from northbound Coast Highway south of Newport Coast Drive travels primarily to cordons A, W, and U. Each of these cordons was the destination of more than 5 of the 100 vehicles followed. Cordon A is Coast Highway at the Santa Ana River and received seven percent (7%) of the vehicles studied. Cordon W is Newport Coast Drive northeast of the SR-73 freeway and was the destination of seven percent (7%) of vehicles involved. Cordon U (the destination of six percent (6%) of the vehicles followed) is Bison Avenue northeast of the SR-73 freeway (towards University of California, Irvine). Exhibit 2-37

Survey results for southbound Coast Highway south of the Santa Ana River are summarized in Table 2-16. Internal (City of Newport Beach) traffic comprises 66% of the 100 trips analyzed. In the off-peak time frame, this percentage is much lower, but the off-peak sample size is small (8 vehicles). Primary destinations include traffic analysis districts 2, 8, 3/10, and 9. District 2 is Mariners Mile/Newport Heights. Newport Center is district 8. District 3/10 is Newport Bay and the Balboa Peninsula, and district 9 is Bayside/Balboa Island.
Through traffic from the starting point on Coast Highway south of the Santa Ana River primarily exits the City of Newport Beach either at cordon C (Superior Boulevard north of 15th Street), or at cordon Y (Coast Highway south of Newport Coast Drive). Cordon C captured eleven percent (11 %) of traffic studied, while Cordon Y was the destination of seven percent (7%) of vehicles followed. All other cordons had fewer than 5 of the 100 vehicles studied leaving. A graphic depiction of travel patterns for vehicles traveling into the city on Coast Highway south of the Santa Ana River is shown on Exhibit 2-N.
Table 2-17 contains survey results for southbound MacArthur Boulevard north of Bonita Canyon Drive. Almost 90% of traffic on this segment remains in the City of Newport Beach. Major destinations include districts 8, 13, 9, and 12. District 8 (Newport Center) was the destination of 37 vehicles. 32 total vehicles ended their trips in districts 13 and 9 (Newport Coast West/Corona Del Mar and Bayside/Balboa Island, respectively). District 12 is Harbor View Hills/Newport Ridge (the destination of 11 vehicles).
During the peak hours, 11 of the 100 vehicles did travel through the City. Their primary cordon destination was Y (Coast Highway south of Newport Coast Drive) to which seven percent (7%) of vehicles traveled. Exhibit 2-0 shows generalized trip distribution patterns for vehicles studied on MacArthur Boulevard north of Bonita Canyon Drive.

2.10.1 Model Traffic Source Analysis
Each facility of interest in the traffic source analysis has been evaluated to determine corresponding model trip distribution representation. Travel patterns in the existing validation model generally reflect the results of the traffic survey. The model does reflect more through traffic. This is probably related to the longer trip lengths in socioeconomic data based models.
Exhibit 2-P shows the percent of traffic on each roadway segment from Coast Highway (northbound) south of Newport Coast Drive. Much of the model traffic exits the City of Newport Beach on SR-73 northbound (near John Wayne Airport). Coast Highway at the Santa Ana River into Huntington Beach (6%) and Bonita Canyon Drive north of Newport Coast Drive into Irvine (9%) were the destinations of most of the rest of the through traffic, well correlated to observed actual traffic. The larger proportion of through traffic is most likely related to the longer trip lengths in socioeconomic data based models. Much of the traffic that remained in the City of Newport Beach was destined for Newport Center, Newport Coast West/Corona Del Mar, and Newport Bay/Balboa Peninsula.
Exhibit 2-Q shows the trip distribution percents of traffic from Coast Highway southbound at the Santa Ana River. Much of the traffic was headed for Newport Bay/Balboa Peninsula. Other primary destinations included West Newport, Mariners Mile/Newport Heights, and, to a lesser extent, Newport Center. Through traffic exits the City of Newport Beach via Superior Boulevard into Costa Mesa (18%), and Placentia Avenue into Costa Mesa (7%), and on Coast Highway south of Newport Coast Drive towards Laguna Beach (4%).
Traffic percentages from MacArthur Boulevard southbound north of Bonita Canyon Drive are shown on Exhibit 2-R. The only significant through 2-46

traffic leaves the City of Newport Beach traveling southbound on Coast Highway south of Newport Coast Drive (19%). Primary destinations within the City of Newport Beach include Harbor View Hills/Newport Ridge, Newport Center, and Newport Coast West/Corona Del Mar.
2.11 Peak Hour Intersection Operations
Peak period and hour traffic count data has been obtained from a variety of sources. Obtaining 2001/2002 data has been an emphasis of the validation effort.
Peak period and hour turning movement traffic volume data have been compiled or counted at a total of 62 intersections throughout the City of Newport Beach, as shown on Exhibit 2-S. These locations were selected for analysis by City staff because of their locations along key travel corridors within the community.
Appendix "O" contains the AM and PM 2 hour peak period traffic count data and the calculated one hour peak volumes. The data collected/compiled was input into a turning movement analysis database. For each location, leg inbound and outbound volumes were calculated. These were compared to those for surrounding intersections for conservation of flow. Some adjustments were necessary to provide reasonable flow conservation at adjacent intersections without significant intervening access such as driveways or local residential streets. An example of this type of situation is a freeway interchange. All necessary flow conservation adjustments are shown explicitly in Appendix"O".
Recent peak hour intersection count data (from 2003, 2004, and 2005) has been provided by City staff. The recent count data is contained in Appendix "P". Total volume at each study area intersection where new count data was available has been compared to the total volume counted for the baseline analysis in 2002.
The analysis is shown in Appendix "Q". As shown in Appendix "Q", there is a general decrease in traffic volume at study area intersections for each recent count year. From 2002 to 2003, intersection volumes decrease by approximately 6%. From 2002 to 2004, intersection volumes decrease by approximately 7%.
From 2002 to 2005, intersection volumes decrease by approximately 2%. Based on this analysis, volumes forecast using 2002 count data are conservative. 2-50

An additional adjustment was to include a minimum of 1 vehicle for every allowed turning movement to ensure proper operation of the intersection capacity utilization (ICU) calculator and the future turn forecast algorithm. Geometric data has been collected for the 62 existing intersections selected for analysis. The geometric data was used to calculate existing (2002) intersection capacity utilization values (ICUs) at all 62 existing analysis intersections. Appendix "R" contains the detailed ICU calculation worksheets for existing count conditions. The worksheets in Appendix "R" summarize the intersection geometric data and the AM and PM peak intersection turning movement volumes.
Table 2-18 summarizes the ICU and Level of Service (LOS) for existing counted conditions. Exhibit 2-T shows intersections with deficient operations. The following 6 intersections currently experience deficient (LOS "E" or worse) peak hour operating conditions based on 2002 traffic counts:
• Riverside Drive (NS)/Coast Highway (EW) - PM
• Campus Drive (NS)/Bristol Street (N) (EW) - PM
• Irvine Avenue (NS)/Mesa Drive (EW) - PM
• MacArthur Boulevard (NS)/Jamboree Road (EW) - PM
• MacArthur Boulevard (NS)/San Joaquin Hills Road (EW) - PM • Goldenrod Avenue (NS)/Coast Highway (EW) — AM
2.12 Truck Facilities
Commercial vehicles weighing in excess of 3 tons (6,000 pounds) are permitted on City of Newport Beach roads. Commercial vehicles weighing in excess of 3 tons are prohibited from certain study area roadways, as signed. Exhibit 2-U identifies the roadways where commercial vehicles are prohibited. 2-52

2.14 Trail System
Trail systems, while providing alternates to automobile travel, also provide recreational opportunities for the community. The existing trail system in Newport Beach has been developed to provide access for commuter and recreational bicyclists, along with pedestrians.
The Newport Beach bikeways system contains off-street bike paths, sidewalk bikeways, and on -street bike trails. Exhibit 2-V shows design cross -sections for bikeways, per the Caltrans Highway Design Manual, 5th Edition. The existing bikeway facilities in the study area are shown on Exhibit 2-W. Newport Beach has off-street bike paths primarily along parts of Coast Highway, Irvine Avenue, University Drive, Jamboree Road, Spyglass Hill Road and San Joaquin Hills Road. Additional off -road facilities are located in the San Diego Creek Channel along Newport Bay and through Buffalo Hills Park.
Sidewalk bikeways include the access roads to Fashion Island and:
• Coast Highway from the westerly city limit to Riverside Drive, and from the projection of Irvine Avenue to Avocado Avenue
• Balboa Boulevard
• Campus Drive/Irvine Avenue
• Dover Drive
• MacArthur Boulevard
• Von Karman Avenue
• Jamboree Road
• Bristol Street
• Eastbluff Drive
• Bayside Drive
• Bison Avenue
• Ford Road
• Spyglass Hill Road

On -street bike trails occur on San Miguel Drive, Newport Coast Drive, Irvine Avenue, Coast Highway and other minor streets throughout the City.
Recreational use of alternative travel modes (especially bicycle and pedestrian) is prevalent in the City of Newport Beach. The Back Bay trail is particularly popular among recreational travelers.
2.15 Public Transit
Public bus service is provided by OCTA. An established network of bus routes provides access to employment centers, shopping and recreational areas within the City. OCTA periodically updates a county -wide Bus Service Implementation Program (BSIP) which includes changes to service levels and route configurations.
Exhibit 2-X shows existing public -transit service in Newport Beach. Local bus routes in the City of Newport Beach include:
• Route 1 (along Coast Highway)
• Route 47 (provides access from Balboa Boulevard north of Fairview Street)
• Route 55 (from 17th Street in Costa Mesa providing access to Newport Center/Fashion Island)
• Route 57 (along Bristol Street and Jamboree Road to Newport Center) • Route 71 (from the Balboa Fun Zone north along the SR-55 freeway) • Route 75 (from Newport Center up Jamboree Road)
• Route 76 (along San Miguel Drive and MacArthur Boulevard) • Route 79 (from Newport Center along Eastbluff Drive to University Drive)
The Newport Transportation Center and Park -and -Ride facility is located at MacArthur Boulevard and San Joaquin Hills Road in Newport Center.

before entering Santa Ana Heights. Additional bus service passes very near to Newport Beach, particularly in the vicinity of John Wayne Airport and the University of California at Irvine. Public transportation service typically operates periodically throughout the day, with less frequent or even no service in the middle of the night.
2.16 Air Travel
Air Travel for residents, workers, and visitors in Newport Beach is served by John Wayne Airport (located just northwest of Campus Drive along the City boundary).
SNA is a local airport, acting as a secondary facility to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).
2.17 Marine Transport
The proximity of the City of Newport Beach to the Pacific Ocean creates a unique opportunity for transportation solutions. Transportation related to maritime uses increases the potential for traffic problems around Newport Bay. Specific examples of alternative travel modes in Coastal Newport Beach include the Santa Catalina Ferry (providing access from the Balboa Pavilion to Santa Catalina Island), and the Balboa Ferry (connecting Balboa Island to the Balboa Peninsula).
2.18 Freeway/Tollway and Ramp Analysis
After conferring with Caltrans staff, it was determined that Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) methodologies were to be used in analyzing freeway mainline and ramp operation levels of service. Caltrans staff was contacted to obtain the necessary data to perform the analysis. Some input parameters were provided; however, other parameters have been determined through further investigation and use of default HCM parameters, where necessary. All scenarios were analyzed using HCS2000 software by McTrans.
2-62
The existing volumes on the SR-73 freeway through Newport Beach indicate that the AM peak hour peak direction is northbound, while the PM peak hour peak direction is southbound. This flow pattern is consistent with the southern parts of Newport Beach and Orange County consisting mainly of residential housing.
Table 2-19 shows the operational levels of service of the segments within City boundaries. The analysis sheets are contained in Appendix "S." The following mainline segments of the SR-73 Freeway operate at a deficient level of service (LOS "E" or "F") in either the AM or PM peak hour:
SR-73 Freeway Northbound:
• 1-405 Freeway to Bear Street (AM)
• Bear Street to SR-55 Freeway (AM)
• SR-55 Freeway to Jamboree Rd. (AM/PM)
SR-73 Freeway Southbound:
• 1-405 Freeway to Bear Street (PM)
• Bear Street to SR-55 Freeway (PM)
• SR-55 Freeway to Jamboree Rd. (PM)
The methodology to analyze freeway ramp operations is more complicated than for the mainline analysis. In addition to ramp volumes and lanes; the number of freeway mainline lanes, freeway mainline volumes, and the length of acceleration/deceleration lane(s) were also required. Appendix "T" contains the worksheets for the ramp analysis. Table 2-20 summarizes the results. Under Existing conditions, the ramps operating at a deficient level of service (LOS "E" or "F") are:
• Bristol Street Northbound Off
• Bristol Street Southbound Off
• Jamboree Road Northbound On
• Jamboree Road Southbound On

3.0 MODEL TRIP GENERATION FOR SUBAREA LAND USE ALTERNATIVES This chapter documents trip generation for each subarea land use scenario identified for evaluation (existing, without project and with project) in this phase of the General Plan update process. Previously published analysis of a broader range of subarea land use alternatives identified by the General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC) was then considered in identifying these subsequent alternatives. Full analysis with the traffic model has been run on two comprehensive future alternatives derived from the subarea data and overall City-wide data for the remainder of the City.
Thirteen subarea land use tables were provided to Urban Crossroads, Inc. staff. Each table contains land use data quantities and comparisons for existing, without and With Project conditions for the subarea. Urban Crossroads, Inc. staff has extracted trip generation results directly from the Newport Beach Traffic Model (NBTM) for each subarea. Daily and peak hour trips have been computed. Higher trip generation/volume may not necessarily increase congestion. The effects are dependent on many other factors, including peaking characteristics of traffic, directional split, even quantity of cross -street traffic.
3.1 Trip Generation Rates and Adiustments
This section provides information on trip generation characteristics unique to the City of Newport Beach and/or the types of land uses contemplated in the General Plan (including adjustments to some standard/typical rates). Coastal trip generation for residential land use is compared with general residential trip generation by type. Mixed use trip rate refinements are discussed. High-rise apartments trip generation rates are evaluated in comparison to typical apartments. Trip generation for the subarea alternatives has been extracted directly from the traffic model.
3-1
3.1.1 Coastal Trip Generation
As the Newport Beach Traffic Model (NBTM) was developed, Urban Crossroads, Inc. staff determined (during model validation) that the traffic patterns/trip generation rates in the coastal areas were different from elsewhere in the City of Newport Beach. The initial Existing conditions (validation) traffic model volumes were higher in the coastal areas than the actual traffic count data. Specialized occupancy factors and trip rates were therefore developed for residential uses in the coastal areas during the validation process. The shoulder season (spring/fall) occupancy rate for typical City of Newport Beach residential uses is 95%.
For Coastal areas, the estimated occupancy rate is 90%. For total AM, total PM, and Daily trip rates, the trip generation range in Coastal areas is between 79% and 88% of typical residential trip rates. The PM peak hour is the timeframe in which the highest number of operational deficiencies has been identified, and in the PM peak hour, the coastal trip rates are between 85% and 87% of typical trip rates.
3.1.2 Mixed Use Developments
Mixed use development is being contemplated in the General plan With Project scenario. Mixed use is anticipated in 8 of the 12 subareas, including:
• Airport Area
• Balboa Village
• Cannery Village
• Lido Village
• Mariners Mile
• McFadden Square
• Newport Center
• Old Newport Boulevard
3-2
Based on research presented in this chapter, ten percent (10%) for both residential and commercial components of the proposed mixed use developments represent a conservative reduction in trip generation.
Mixed use trip generation information and research compiled by Urban Crossroads, Inc. has been included as Appendix "U". Information has been gathered from sampling done by ITE and documented in Trip Generation, 5th Edition (ITE, 1991). More recent versions of ITE's Trip Generation do not include information on mixed use sites. There are two examples of mixed use developments containing residential uses in the 5th Edition. Internal capture (the proportion of traffic that would typically be generated, then distributed to the surrounding system that is instead served on -site as a result of the land use mix) has been identified.
The first example contains 606 dwelling units and 64,000 square feet of commercial/office. The internal capture rates are 27% for the PM peak hour and 17% for the daily.
The second example is for a larger site, with 2,300 dwelling units and over 160 thousand square feet of total commercial, office, restaurant, and medical center uses. This site also includes schools, a church, and a day-care center. The internal capture for this site is substantially higher (45% or more for all time periods).
An additional data resource was the Santa Monica Civic Center study.
The Santa Monica Civic Center study included a 50% reduction for the retail component, but no reduction was done on other uses. The net result in the analysis was an overall reduction of approximately 10%.
A final data resource consulted was the San Diego Association of Governments trip generation handbook. The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) trip generation handbook suggests up to a 10% reduction.
3-3
Based on the examples cited, an adjustment factor of 10% of traffic for mixed uses will provide a conservative representation of trip generation.
The factor is applied in cases where the land use has been defined as mixed use development. Where both the mixed use and coastal factors are applicable, only one is applied to avoid overstating trip generation benefits. Later sections of this report will discuss individual sub -area land use representation.
Sample mixed use calculations showing internal capture are contained in Appendix "V". Sample calculations for Balboa Village reveal that 11-12% internal capture is predicted. Therefore, 10% is conservative. Sample calculations have been prepared to show the effect of introducing residential uses to a commercial and office environment. The introduction of residential uses results in an expected internal capture of 14%, greater than the 10% used in mixed use calculations for this study.
In the Airport Area, the 20% high rise apartment reduction has been applied, with no accompanying reduction for mixed use.
To assist with land use planning refinements in mixed use areas, conversion factors have been developed from the model trip generation rates. Table 3-1 contains the results of this analysis for the PM peak period. As shown in Table 3-1, for the PM peak hour, a reduction of one single-family detached residence allows 220 square feet of commercial without an increase in trip generation. A transfer the other direction (from commercial to single-family detached residential) could be performed to increase dwelling units by 4.49 for every thousand square feet of commercial lost. Similar conversion factors are included for single-family attached and apartment residential uses.
The factors presented in Table 3-1 are related to the PM peak period (consistent with other trip generation calculations for Newport Beach modeling purposes). Conversion factors could potentially be related to 3-4

daily traffic or AM peak hour, or a subset of AM or PM peak hour total.
These factors are included in Table 3-2. The worst case conversion for each type of residential use is included in Table 3-3. To provide the most conservative conversion, AM peak hour inbound rates should govern for converting residential uses to commercial (approximately 70 to 120 square feet per dwelling unit). To convert from commercial to residential using the worst case conversion factor, the AM outbound should be used (and 1.25 to 1.67 units would result from a reduction of 1 thousand square feet of commercial).
3.1.3 High -Rise Apartments
High-rise apartments are a special apartment use. As defined by ITE Trip Generation Manual, 7th edition (2003), high-rise apartments have more than 10 floors and typically include one or two elevators. Trip Generation rates for high-rise apartments are compared to general apartment trip generation rates in Table 3-4. As shown in Table 3-4, the ratio of trip generation for high-rise apartments to apartments ranges from 0.56 to 0.63 trips, depending on the time period. Because the ITE rates show a trip reduction of 37 to 43%, the reduction factor of 20% used for high-rise apartments in this General Plan analysis is conservative.

2 Plan) scenarios. Table 3-5 summarizes the results of the analysis. PM peak hour trip generation grows from 9,182 peak hour trips in the Existing conditions scenario to 10,798 peak hour trips for Without Project conditions or 11,752 for With Project conditions. Daily and AM peak hour trip generation follows the same pattern as for the PM peak hour (Without Project increases from Existing conditions, but the With Project scenario results in the maximum trip generation).
3.2.2 Balboa Village
Table 3-6 summarizes the land use and trip generation data and results for Balboa Village. The With Project scenario has a mixed use component. There are 270 mixed use residences and 174,693 square feet of mixed use commercial in the With Project scenario. PM peak hour trip generation increases from 1,684 peak hour trips in the Existing condition to 1,809 peak hour trips in the Without Project (currently adopted General Plan) scenario or 1,889 peak hour trips in the With Project (Preferred Alternative) scenario. In each of the three time periods (AM peak hour, PM peak hour, and daily), the With Project scenario generates more traffic than the Without Project scenario.
3.2.3 Banning Ranch
The City Council has identified open space as the preferred use of Banning Ranch, but this analysis has assumed worst case conditions, including development on the Banning Ranch property. Banning Ranch has not been analyzed as part of the coastal area (e.g. no trip reduction has been assumed). Table 3-7 summarizes the results of the analysis.
PM peak hour trip generation ranges from 7 peak hour trips in the Existing conditions scenario to 1,990 peak hour trips for Without Project conditions. The Without Project (currently adopted General Plan) 3-11

generates the highest number of trips. The With Project (worst case, rather than open space) scenario indicates the site may generate as much as 1,285 PM peak hour trips. This represents a worst case scenario, in the event that the property is not acquired for Open Space.
3.2.4 Cannery Village
Cannery Village is composed of two Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs), each of which is analyzed individually, as the options are not related and should be considered separately. TAZ 1449 is located west of Newport Boulevard south of 32nd Street while TAZ 1454 is east of Newport Boulevard south of 32nd Street. Because of the location, the mixed use residential in the With Project scenario of TAZ 1449 may be represented as coastal residential (e.g., no double counting of potential trip reductions). The same is true of mixed use residential in TAZ 1454. In both cases, coastal representation has been used. TAZ 1449 also includes 67,235 square feet of mixed use commercial. TAZ 1454 contains 36,209 square feet of mixed use commercial. Table 3-8 summarizes the results of the analysis.
For TAZ 1449, PM peak hour trip generation increases from 320 existing peak hour trips to 335 without project or 400 with project peak hour trips.
Trip generation for AM peak hour and daily traffic follow the same pattern as for the PM peak hour (the Without Project scenario generates fewer trips than the With Project scenario).
For TAZ 1454, PM peak hour trip generation increases from 860 peak hour trips for Existing conditions to 944 peak hour trips for Without Project conditions. For With Project conditions, trip generation decreases to 530 PM peak hour trips. Trip generation for AM peak hour and daily traffic follow the same pattern as for the PM peak hour (trip generation is less than Existing for the With Project scenario, and greater than Existing for the Without Project scenario).

3.2.5 Corona Del Mar
Table 3-9 summarizes the land use and trip generation data and results for Corona Del Mar. PM peak hour trip generation increases from 4,116 peak hour trips in Existing conditions to 4,917 peak hour trips for Without Project conditions or 4,925 peak hour trips for With Project conditions.
The With Project scenario also generates the most AM peak hour and daily trips.
3.2.6 Lido Village
Lido Village is composed of two Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs), each of which is analyzed individually. TAZ 1452 is located northeast of Via Lido. TAZ 1453 is located between Via Lido, 32nd Street, and Newport Boulevard. Table 3-10 summarizes the results of the analysis. There is a mixed use component in each TAZ for the With Project scenario.
For TAZ 1452, PM peak hour trip generation increases from 565 peak hour trips for Existing conditions to 570 peak hour trips for Without Project conditions or 879 peak hour trips for With Project conditions. Trip generation for AM peak hour and daily traffic follow the same pattern as for the PM peak hour.
For TAZ 1453, PM peak hour trip generation increases from 593 peak hour trips for Existing conditions to 693 peak hour trips for Without Project conditions. For With Project conditions, there is a decrease in peak hour trips (to 533). Trip generation for AM peak hour and daily traffic follow the same pattern as for the PM peak hour. 3-17

3.2.7 Mariners Mile
Mariners Mile has not been represented as having coastal residential characteristics, so the mixed use apartments in the With Project scenario are represented as mixed use for trip generation purposes. The mixed use commercial has been factored as well. Table 3-11 summarizes the results of the analysis. PM peak hour trip generation increases from 3,899 peak hour trips for Existing conditions to 4,644 peak hour trips for Without Project conditions or 5,014 peak hour trips for With Project conditions. The AM peak hour and daily trip generation follow the same pattern as the PM peak hour.
3.2.8 McFadden Square
McFadden Square is composed of two Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs), each of which is analyzed individually. TAZ 1450 is located east of Newport Boulevard in the vicinity of the intersection of Balboa Boulevard and Newport Boulevard. TAZ 1451 is located west of TAZ 1450. Table 3-12 summarizes the results of this analysis.
TAZ 1450 contains mixed use residential (represented as coastal residential) and mixed use commercial. For TAZ 1450, PM peak hour trip generation ranges from 321 peak hour trips for Existing conditions to 663 peak hour trips for With Project conditions (the Without Project scenario generates 371 peak hour trips). Trip generation for AM peak hour and daily traffic follow the same pattern as for the PM peak hour.
Only the coastal residential adjustment applies to TAZ 1451. For TAZ 1451, PM peak hour trip generation ranges from 357 peak hour trips for Existing conditions to 506 peak hour trips for With Project conditions (the Without Project scenario generates 392 peak hour trips). Trip generation 3-20

for AM peak hour and daily traffic follow the same pattern as for the PM peak.
3.2.9 Newport Center / Fashion Island
New residential uses (apartments) are proposed for the Newport Center/Fashion Island subarea. All of the new apartments in Newport Center are High Rise apartments. Table 3-13 summarizes the results of the trip generation analysis. PM peak hour trip generation grows from 9,413 peak hour trips for Existing conditions to 10,819 peak hour trips for the With Project scenario or 10,094 for the Without Project scenario.
The Without Project (currently adopted General Plan) scenario generates fewer trips than the With Project scenario. AM peak hour and daily trip generation follows the same pattern as for the PM peak hour.
3.2.10 Old Newport Boulevard
Although there is a true mixed use development in Old Newport Boulevard for With Project conditions, the small size of the development precludes it from qualifying for mixed use trip reduction factoring. Table 3-14 summarizes the results of this analysis. PM peak hour trip generation increases from 622 peak hour trips in Existing conditions to 885 peak hour trips for Without Project conditions or 1,272 peak hour trips for With Project conditions. Trip generation for AM peak hour and daily traffic follow the same pattern as for the PM peak.
3.2.11 West Newport Highway and Adjoining Residential
Table 3-15 summarizes the results of the West Newport Highway and adjoining Residential analysis. PM peak hour trip generation increases from 760 peak hour trips for Existing conditions to 890 peak hour trips for With Project conditions or 816 peak hour trips for Without Project conditions.

3.2.12 West Newport Mesa
For West Newport Mesa, no adjustments have been made. Table 3-16 summarizes the results of the analysis. PM peak hour trip generation increases from 2,386 for Existing conditions to 5,000 for With Project conditions or 4,210 or Without Project conditions. AM peak hour and daily trip generation follow the same pattern as the PM peak hour traffic.
3.3 Conclusions
Tables 3-17 through 3-19 present total City trip generation for Existing, Without and With Project scenarios in the AM peak hour, PM peak hour, and daily timeframes, respectively. Overall City trip generation increases from Existing conditions by less than 30% in all scenarios and timeframes included in this analysis.
Similar tables have been prepared to show the change between the General Plan buildout scenarios. Tables 3-20 through 3-22 contain these comparisons for with AM peak hour, PM peak hour, and daily conditions. In each timeframe, With Project increases exceed the Without Project increases by between 2 and 3% citywide. Some of these increases actually reduce the impact to the roadway system because of a better balance of residences and employment generating uses or locating commercial uses in close proximity to the residential uses they are most likely to serve.

4.0 GENERAL PLAN BUILDOUT WITHOUT PROJECT (POST-2030) LAND USE
WITH PROJECT NETWORK SCENARIO
This chapter presents General Plan buildout Without Project (Post-2030) conditions.
The Without Project designation refers to the currently adopted General Plan. The anticipated General Plan (future) network is essentially the same for both future scenarios and is discussed in subsequent sections of this report. General Plan buildout model inputs are discussed and forecast volumes are presented. Data are compared to Existing Conditions to show traffic growth trends.
4.1 Land Use and Socioeconomic Data (SED)
This section discusses the land use and socioeconomic data inputs.
4.1.1 General Plan Buildout Without Proiect Land Use Data The General Plan buildout Without Project land use data was provided to Urban Crossroads, Inc. staff by City of Newport Beach staff. Appendix "W" of this report documents the explicit land use data included in NBTM
3.1 for General Plan buildout Without Project (currently adopted General Plan) conditions in this analysis.
Table 4-1 summarizes the overall General Plan buildout Without Project land uses for the City of Newport Beach. Land uses have been updated compared to previous reports, based on more detailed information available (especially in the Newport Coast and Newport Ridge areas, where detailed land use information was unavailable in previous analyses).
Table 4-1 also shows General Plan buildout Without Project land use growth from Existing conditions. Medium density residential and apartments each grow by more than 4,000 dwelling units. Non-residential categories that grow by more than 500,000 square feet include general commercial, general office, and industrial land uses.

4.1.2 General Plan Buildout Without Project Socioeconomic Data (SED) General Plan buildout Without Project SED that has been calculated from land use is summarized in Table 4-2. Appendix "X" contains SED summaries by traffic analysis zone. Table 4-2 also contains a comparison of General Plan buildout Without Project SED to Existing SED for the City of Newport Beach. The total number of dwelling units are projected to grow by 8,818 units (23 %) from Existing conditions. For total employment, an increase of 20,292 employees (28 %) is anticipated.
4.2 Trip Generation
Table 4-3 summarizes the updated General Plan buildout Without Project trip generation in the City of Newport Beach. Table 4-4 summarizes the overall trip generation for General Plan buildout Without Project conditions for the City of Newport Beach and compares it to Existing conditions trip generation. Appendix "Y" contains a report of trip generation by NBTM TAZ for the City of Newport Beach. Most of these trips have been calculated from the final General Plan buildout SED presented previously. Some trips are derived from supplemental SED or represent special generator trips within the City of Newport Beach. The overall trip generation for the City of Newport Beach currently adopted General Plan is an estimated 1,022,385 daily vehicle trips.
4.3 Traffic Assignment
Exhibit 4-A shows the anticipated General Plan buildout through lanes on all Newport Beach arterial roadways. Appendix "Z" contains letters prepared by Urban Crossroads to document recommendations on roadway system features for the constrained and the With Project network. The General Plan buildout With Project model network matches the With Project configurations. This network is used to analyze both the Without Project and With Project scenarios, to maintain consistency.

The constrained network was developed in response to visioning process input that residents want to minimize further widening and extension of the arterial roadway system, as well as staff and consultant information on roadway improvements that are uncertain due to political or funding issues. Differences in the constrained (versus original Baseline) network include:
• No extension of SR-55 Freeway
• No widening of Coast Highway through Mariners Mile
• No extension of 19th Street across the Santa Ana River • No widening of Jamboree Road north of Ford Road
While the extension of the SR-55 freeway is included in regional plans, it is not expected to be completed prior to buildout of the City of Newport Beach.
Appendix "Z" contains a letter prepared by Urban Crossroads to document changes to the currently adopted roadway system for the constrained network (used previously in the preliminary alternatives analysis). The network outside the Tier 3 area is unchanged from before.
Key roadway changes reflected in the currently analyzed roadway system (versus constrained) include:
• Widening of Coast Highway through Mariners Mile
• Extension of 19th Street across the Santa Ana River
These changes are based on the findings of the preliminary alternatives analysis, which indicated that these improvements are critical to maintaining acceptable levels of service on key arterial roadways in the City of Newport Beach.
Exhibit 4-B summarizes the NBTM 3.1 refined General Plan buildout With Project network daily traffic volumes throughout the City of Newport Beach. Table 4-5 compares these refined forecasts to existing counted volumes (presented in Chapter 2 of this Report). The highest daily traffic volume increase on a study area roadway segment occurs on Newport Coast Drive. Throughout Newport Coast OFQ

Drive, traffic increases by 15,000 to 17,000 vehicles per day (VPD). This increase is largely caused by the additional development anticipated in Newport Coast/Newport Ridge subsequent to 2002. The already constructed roadway cross-section of Newport Coast Drive can accommodate this projected increase in traffic at acceptable levels of service. Other study area roadway segments to experience traffic increases of greater than 10,000 VPD are:
• Campus Drive/Irvine Avenue from Von Karman Avenue to Mesa Drive • Coast Highway from Superior Avenue to Tustin Avenue, from Dover Drive to Jamboree Road, and east of Newport Coast Drive • Jamboree Road from Campus Drive to MacArthur Boulevard • MacArthur Boulevard from SR-73 Ramps to Bison Avenue
Volume increases on all of these roadways are attributed to growth in the City of Newport Beach and surrounding regional growth.
4A Daily Capacity Analysis
Daily roadway segment capacity analysis has been performed at study area roadways, and is shown on Exhibit 4-C. The following roadway segments are expected to operate with daily V/C greater than 0.90:
• Newport Boulevard north of Via Lido
• Jamboree Road north of Campus Drive
• Jamboree Road north of Birch Street
• Irvine Avenue north of University Drive
• Irvine Avenue north of Santiago Drive
• Irvine Avenue north of Highland Drive
• Irvine Avenue north of Dover Drive
• Dover Drive north of Westcliff Drive
• Dover Drive north of Coast Highway
• Jamboree Road north of Bayview Way
• Jamboree Road north of University Drive

The daily capacity of a roadway correlates to a number of widely varying factors, including traffic peaking characteristics, traffic turning volumes, and the volume of 4-16
traffic on crossing streets. The daily capacities are therefore most appropriately used for long range General Plan analysis, or as a screening tool to determine the need for more detailed peak hour analysis. More detailed peak hour analysis has been conducted at key intersections in the vicinity of all these roadway segments to quantify actual peak hour operations and levels of service.
4.5 Peak Hour Forecasts
The final and most meaningful data used to evaluate the General Plan buildout Without Project scenario was intersection volume and geometric data for the 64 intersections selected for analysis. The geometric data was provided by City staff and was used to calculate existing General Plan Buildout intersection capacity utilization values (ICUs) at all 64 analysis intersections. Table 4-6 summarizes the General Plan buildout Without Project ICUs, based on the AM and PM peak hour intersection turning movement volumes and existing (2005) intersection geometric data, as compared with existing (2002) conditions ICUs.
Appendix "AA" contains the detailed ICU calculation worksheets. The worksheets in Appendix "AA" summarize the intersection geometric data and the AM and PM peak intersection turning movement volumes.
As shown in Table 4-6, ICU values generally increase in the General Plan Buildout conditions compared to Existing conditions. The exceptions occur where new parallel facilities are available, or where an increase in lanes results in increased capacity. Intersections with ICU values greater than 0.90 (LOS "E" or worse) in either peak period without improvements beyond 2005 conditions are:
• Newport Boulevard (NS)/Hospital Road (EW) (PM)
• Riverside Avenue (NS)/Coast Highway (EW) (AM/PM)
• Tustin Avenue (NS)/Coast Highway (EW) (AM)
• MacArthur Boulevard (NS)/Campus Drive (EW) (PM)
• Von Karman Avenue (NS)/Campus Drive (EW) (PM)
• Jamboree Road (NS)/Campus Drive (EW) (AM/PM)

Intersection analysis has been performed to determine the additional improvements necessary to provide acceptable levels of service. ICU worksheets are included in Appendix "BB". Table 4-7 summarizes intersection analysis for buildout conditions, including potential improvements and discussion regarding improvement feasibility. Table 4-7 also compares the ICU results with and without additional improvements. Improvements necessary to provide acceptable levels of service are listed in Table 4-8. Improvements that require the least additional right-of-way or other environmental impacts have generally been recommended. Individual intersections improvements are discussed in Chapter 6 for each location requiring improvements.
4.6 Freeway/Tollway and Ramp Analysis
For the General Plan buildout Without Project scenario, the volumes on the SR-73 increase enough that all segments being analyzed are failing, as shown on Table 4-9. Anticipated regional improvements were taken from OCTAM (Orange County Transportation Analysis Model). Worksheets for the analysis 4-20
