Agenda packet — Oxnard City Council, December 6, 2022 (part 2 of 9)

decisionmakers sufficient facts to support an adequate analysis of the Project’s environmental impacts.

IV. The Port has not Provided a Meaningful Public Review of the DEIR.

In violation of CEQA, neither the DEIR nor the Community Workshop was properly translated into Spanish. Limiting public access in this way contravenes one of the core tenets of CEQA – that “the public holds a ‘privileged position’ in the CEQA process ‘based on a belief that citizens can make important contributions to environmental protection and on notions of democratic decision making.’”77
According to the latest census data, in Oxnard as a whole, 66% of residents speak a language other than English at home, and 30% speak English less than “very well.” Indeed, the City itself has also acknowledged that a significant percentage of Oxnard residents speak Mixteco, particularly in south Oxnard. Yet, as described in the commenters’ February letter, the public does not have access to Spanish or Mixteco translations for any of the close to 1,000 pages of documents that provide the environmental review undertaken by the City and the details of the Project.

The language access issues have persisted through the March Community Workshop, which was primarily held in English. There was no simultaneous interpretation of the information presented by the Port. Instead, staff were invited to provide only a “summary” of the presentation in Spanish and Mixteco. More egregiously, the City’s presentation was entirely in English without interpretation.

Language access reports and studies show that such summaries do not provide for meaningful public review of important project development information. Over a decade ago, the Institute for Local Government published a guide for local officials on language access. In this guide, the authors highlighted how “providing language access increases the opportunities that residents have to communicate with their local leaders and public service providers and ensures the flow of information between public agencies and residents and among residents that is vital to effective community-building.”78
Furthermore, California’s Bilingual Services Act was created with the intent to safeguard democracy and public participation in California’s diverse landscape.79 State agencies must distribute applicable translated written materials if the State agency “serves a substantial number of non-English-speaking persons” and “[t]he information solicited, required, or furnished affects or may affect the individual’s rights, duties, or privileges with regard to that agency’s services or benefits.” Although, as local agencies, the City and Port are not directly subject to this rule, refusing to translate environmental documents restricts non-English speaking individuals’ ability 77 Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 14, § 15201 (1992).
78 INSTITUTE FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENT, Language Access Laws and Legal Issues: A Local Official’s Guide, (2011), http://ca-ilg.org/sites/main/files/file-attachments/language_ access_ guide_ formatted_9-27-11_2.pdf
79 Cal. Gov. Code § 7290 et seq. (1973)

and right to meaningfully participate in environmental decisions that impact their health and safety.

As such, the City and Port should commit to equivalent language access services.

Given the high percentage of Spanish and Mixteco-speaking Oxnard residents, if the City truly aims to provide meaningful opportunities for engagement and public review of the information provided on the Project, it must translate the entirety of any written information provided into Spanish and any oral information into Spanish and Mixteco.

CONCLUSION
In light of the numerous flaws in the DEIR and the broader CEQA process, the Planning Division should not certify a final EIR at this time and must deny the requested Special Use Permit. The public deserves an opportunity to review and comment on a comprehensive EIR that discloses the full extent of the Project’s environmental impacts. Additionally, the comments raised in this letter, along with the attached produced documents, should become part of the administrative record.

Lastly, we ask that the City of Oxnard comply with its legal obligations under the California Public Records Act and set up a meeting with requestors as soon as possible. Should you have any questions, or would like to discuss the contents of this letter, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected]. Thank you for considering our supplemental comments.

Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners,
I am writing to share my concern for the health of Oxnard residents and the environment in the South Oxnard Community. The trucks, ships, and countless other diesel-powered vehicles that operate to move the Port of Hueneme’s goods through South Oxnard cause the community to face constant exposure to diesel exhaust, which is the number one air contaminant that leads to cancer.

South Oxnard already has some of the highest levels of pollution from the neighboring paper mill, industrial agriculture fields, water treatment facilities, Superfund site, and gas-fired power plant, which impacts the families of this majority low-income community. The Port of Hueneme’s plan to expand to a 34-acre storage site on Hueneme Road would bring more heavy duty diesel trucks into South Oxnard, near schools, community parks, homes, and health care centers, forcing thousands of young children, families and patients who are most sensitive to air pollution to live and breathe in a diesel death zone.

The Port of Hueneme has much larger plans to expand their operations into South Oxnard with a permanent 250-acre “logistical park” which will consist of massive parking structures, warehouses, and truck parking, yet the city failed to examine the health effects related to that project in the environmental impact report. We need our local decision-makers to stand up for the health and safety of South Oxnard residents and stop the 34-acre expansion project.We cannot let South Oxnard become a diesel death zone!.

Sincerely,
Esequiel Vargas

I’m submitting my comment regarding the proposed parking site at W Hueneme/ Perkins Rd.

I sincerely hope that this will not be approved for a number of reasons.

This area is very special for a number of birds that nest there. Not only the snowy plover on the lease tern, but there are many hawks, Willits, whimbrels, blackbirds etc that call it home or use it as a migration stop as well. The construction of the parking site will scare many of these birds away. The light & noise pollution as well as foot traffic and air pollution in that area would be disastrous.

The need for a park n ride doesn’t exceed the importance of the wildlife surviving in this area. A park and ride can be constructed elsewhere that’s already more industrial and not near endangered habitats.

I have not seen what’s in the environmental impact report. But I know that some things are pretty simple, and the wildlife and habitat that are there will be impacted in a negative way.

We have very few remaining wetlands, and Ormond Beach is a special place.

Please don’t take this place away from the animals that rely on this small and important area.

Kindly,
Sanaz Shirazi

Planning Commissioners,
Thank you for taking the time to read my email concerning the temporary vehicle storage. There are certain projects that come across the docket, that benefit the community, this being one of them. The Port of Hueneme is an economic driver for the county as well as the City of Oxnard. Being an Oxnard resident, and as part of my daily job duties, I’m constantly in the Port. I see how much work is provided to local residents, with goods, cargo and vehicle movement. In years past, vehicles were stored at Camarillo and Oxnard Airports, in vacant fields, and behind the Auto Center in Ventura. All receiving important additional income, that were turned into upgraded features for our local residents. The Camarillo Airport installed more public hangers and Oxnard just repaved the runway with drainage improvements. My point is that this temporary vehicle storage will benefit the city, with more tax revenue without any out of pocket expenses. And after 5 years it will be returned to the state that it currently sits. The Port of Hueneme currently has a Community Workforce Agreement, that generates additional work for us local residents and in turn we spend within the community.

The Port of Hueneme continues to move forward with all electric cranes and electric drayage trucks for moving cargo, and the majority of the vehicles coming off the cargo ships are all electric. If we want to move forward with improving our community and clean up what has been left to us, we need to make strategic partnerships with public and private stakeholders when it benefits everyone. This partnership makes so much sense in the job market and tax revenue. I appreciate the time the commissioners spend on topics like this.

Thank You.

EPA info:
https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.cleanup&id=0901242#Status What Is the Current Site Status?
“Cleanup of contaminated soils, sediments, and groundwater is likely to be needed at the smelter property, the waste management area, the Nature Conservancy property, and city-owned property. 145
As part of its evaluation of cleanup options at the site, EPA is evaluating the cost and feasibility of leaving the wastes in place (“capping”); transporting the wastes to a licensed offsite disposal facility; and “beneficially” using the wastes as a partial substitute for Portland cement in ready-mix concrete.

EPA is also working with neighboring landowners to develop cleanup plans for contaminated soils and sediments in less contaminated parts of the site.

Research into the potential for beneficial use of the waste began in 2010. The next phase of specialized testing to evaluate the cost and feasibility of beneficially using the waste as a partial substitute for Portland cement in ready-mix concrete began in early 2018 and will continue into mid 2019. The testing includes the preparing concrete test cylinders made in part with Halaco waste.

Materials, leaching and performance testing will be conducted to evaluate whether it would be safe to use concrete made with Halaco waste.

EPA expects to release a cleanup proposal for contaminated soils and sediments in late 2022 or early 2023.”
Therefore: This above is good news, considering the Ormond property has been listed on the Super Fund Site List for decades, finally the “EPA expects to release a cleanup proposal …” This is more reason to save the “Vacant Lot” to lend access to the EPA cleanup processes. Should the EPA find the “Vacant Lot” inundated with cars, what message does this give the EPA? Oxnard, the “Vacant Lot” is listed by CA.Gov Ormond Beach Restoration, “ Ormond Beach is considered by wetland experts to be the most important wetland restoration opportunity in southern California.” Save our Environment for the Generations!

Guest column: Setting the record straight about Port of Hueneme project by Kristin Decas
Your Turn, VCStar., March 5, 2022
You may have heard about a proposed Port of Hueneme project for a temporary 34-acre parking area in Oxnard. Some of the narratives being circulated about this project are incorrect and our community deserves to have the facts.

Trade through the Port of Hueneme is responsible for 4% of Ventura County’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and provides employment for 6% of Ventura County’s workforce with over 20,000 jobs. The Port considers projects like Project 34 to help foster economic opportunity for our community, always with an environmental ethic and commitment to our community and neighbors.

This project, consistent with the governor’s mandate requiring all new passenger vehicle sales to be zeroemission by 2035, is also integral in supporting solutions to a global supply chain crisis. If approved, the project would decrease the number of diesel car carriers moving from the Port through our neighborhoods.

Instead, new clean cars, including electric cars, would be driven directly to the site with no trucking, thereby 146
reducing diesel emissions.

The proposed project is for a temporary vehicle storage lot strategically located along the Port’s designated primary corridor from the Port to the 101 — Hueneme Road on privately owned land that is zoned appropriately as light industrial. The storage lot proposal is for three years with a two-year option; for a maximum of five years.

No state or local law required an Environmental Impact Report (EIR); however, as a true environmental steward, the Port supported moving forward with this longer and expensive process so that an independent third-party expert could analyze in full detail all of the project’s impacts and to allow for more input.

Facts about Project 34:

The Project does not involve diesel trucking. It will not increase diesel trucking, in fact, diesel trucks will not be allowed on the project site.

The 34-acre temporary project is not connected in any way to a larger Port development project.

The Project does not involve any increases in ships entering or exiting the Port, nor increased railroad activity.

Seven out of 10 residents polled in local neighborhoods trust the Port to do the right thing environmentally.

Coastal access will not be blocked by the project. There is currently no public access through the site, nor has there been for decades.

The project will not affect Ormond Beach restoration efforts and will not cause runoff or any impact to threatened species like snowy plovers.

This temporary parking site will operate for a maximum of five years.

Sensitive plants, habitats and wetlands are not on this site.

The project includes native species landscaping and removes noxious weeds from the site that would beautify the area.

The city of Oxnard extended the comment period to accommodate extra public review and input and the Port fully supported the extension.

The project creates 30 new jobs.

Our Partner Glovis, the company slated to use this temporary site, is a proven global leader in clean energy.

Glovis ranks as one of the world’s top five electric vehicle manufacturers (Hyundai and Kia brands), and deployed the only commercially available, zero-emission big rig trucks in the world, here in California.

The Port website provides a well-researched fact sheet about the proposed project, and we encourage you to visit www.portofhueneme.

We provide videos in English, Spanish and Mixteco.

The Port of Hueneme is a catalyst, not only for the deployment of more clean energy infrastructure and equipment, but a catalyst for empowering the local community. We greatly appreciate your interest and support.

Re: Port of Hueneme- Vehicle Storage Site Environmental Impact Report Comment Period
Dear Mr. Dobrowalski:

Our organizations, along with Wishtoyo Chumash Foundation, submitted comments on the Draft Environmental Impact Report (“DEIR”) regarding the proposed Port of Hueneme Temporary Vehicle Storage Site project (“Project”). We write to renew our request for a public hearing to facilitate public participation and transparency concerning the Project. Despite significant public interest, the City failed to provide a public hearing ahead of the close of the comment period for the DEIR, which deprived the public of an opportunity to provide input ahead of the close of the comment period.

We recently became aware of a community workshop being planned concerning the Project. We understand that the Community Workshop will include a presentation by the Oxnard Harbor Department (“OHD”) but is not intended to be part of the EIR process for the Project. This will be the first opportunity since the Draft EIR was circulated, that many impacted residents will hear directly from OHD staff and learn additional details regarding the Project. While this informational session is certainly appreciated, it is unclear what the workshop’s primary purpose is given that no decision will be made, it is not specifically tied to the Project’s EIR and the workshop is not before the Planning Commission.

Given the tremendous interest that this project has garnered (with over 200 comments received according to a recent guest column in Ventura County Star), we are requesting that the City schedule a special meeting of the Planning Commission to hear from stakeholders and members of the public well before it decides on approval of the Project. We ask that the hearing be set at least 30 days after the City makes its responses to comments on DEIR available, with an opportunity for written comments on those responses to be submitted up to the date of the scheduled hearing. This hearing should occur at least 30 days before the Planning Commission 148

2 takes a vote on the Project. This will ensure that the Planning Commission has an opportunity to hear from interested parties prior to voting on the EIR. Allowing such a public process would be in the spirit of Oxnard’s stated commitments to good government and a fair and transparent public process.

Please respond to this letter to let us know when the City anticipates making responses to prior comments available and whether it will set a special hearing at the Planning Commission to consider comments on the Project at least 30 days after the responses to DEIR comments are made available and at least 30 days before a Commission vote.

Thank you for considering this request.

Estimados Comisionados de Planificación de Oxnard,
Le escribo para compartir mi preocupación por la salud de los residentes de Oxnard y el medio ambiente en la comunidad del Sur de Oxnard. Los camiones, barcos y varios otros vehículos que funcionan con diésel que transportan las mercancías del Puerto de Hueneme a través del Sur de Oxnard hacen que la comunidad se enfrente a una exposición constante a los gases de escape del diésel, que es el principal contaminante del aire que provoca cáncer.

El Sur de Oxnard tiene algunos de los niveles más altos de contaminación debido a la fábrica de papel, los campos de agricultura industrial, las instalaciones de tratamiento de agua, el sitio Superfund y la planta de energía operada por gas, y esto es lo que ha estado afectando a las familias de esta comunidad que mayormente son de bajos ingresos. El plan de el Puerto de Hueneme es expandirse a un sitio de almacenamiento de 34 acres en Hueneme Road que traería más camiones de diesel al Sur de Oxnard, cerca de escuelas, parques comunitarios, hogares y centros de atención médicos, poniendo a miles de niños pequeños, familias y pacientes que son los más sensibles a la contaminación del aire expuestos a vivir y respirar en una zona de muerte debido al uso de diesel.

El Puerto de Hueneme tiene planes mucho más grandes para expandir sus operaciones en el Sur de Oxnard con un "parque logístico” de 250 acres que sería permanente y consistirá de estructuras de estacionamiento, almacenes y estacionamientos de camiones industriales, pero la ciudad ha fallado en examinar los efectos en la salud relacionados con este proyecto en el informe de impacto ambiental. Necesitamos que nuestros políticos alcen la voz y defiendan la salud y la seguridad de los residentes del Sur de Oxnard y detengan el proyecto de expansión. ¡No podemos permitir que el Sur de Oxnard se convierta en una zona de muerte de diesel!

Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners,
I am writing to share my concern for the health of Oxnard residents and the environment in the South Oxnard Community. The trucks, ships, and countless other diesel-powered vehicles that operate to move the Port of Hueneme’s goods through South Oxnard cause the community to face constant exposure to diesel exhaust, which is the number one air contaminant that leads to cancer.

Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 1

1.0 INTRODUCTION
These Findings of Fact (Findings) for the Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Project (project) are made pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (California Public Resources Code [PRC] Section 21000 et seq.), specifically PRC Sections 21081, 21081.5, and 21081.6, and the CEQA Guidelines (14 CCR 15000 et seq.), specifically Sections 15091 and 15093. The Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) examines the full range of potential effects of construction and operation of the project, identifies standard mitigation practices that could be employed to reduce, minimize, or avoid those potential effects, and evaluates alternatives to the project. The Final EIR is incorporated into these Findings by reference.

1.1 PURPOSE
PRC Section 21081, and CEQA Guidelines Section 15091 require that the lead agency, in this case the City of Oxnard (City), prepare written findings for identified significant effects, accompanied by a brief explanation of the rationale for each finding. Specifically, CEQA Guidelines Section 15091 states, in part, that:
a) No public agency shall approve or carry out a project for which an EIR has been certified which identifies one or more significant environmental effects of the project unless the public agency makes one or more written findings for each of those significant effects, accompanied by a brief explanation of the rationale for each finding. The possible findings are:
1) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the Final EIR.
2) Such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and not the agency making the finding. Such changes have been adopted by such other agency or can and should be adopted by such other agency. 3) Specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the Final EIR.

In accordance with PRC Section 21081, and CEQA Guidelines Section 15093, whenever significant effects cannot be mitigated to below a level of significance, the decision‐making agency is required to balance, as applicable, the benefits of the project against its unavoidable environmental risks when determining whether to approve the project. If the benefits of a project outweigh the unavoidable adverse environmental effects, the adverse effects may be considered “acceptable.” In that case, the decisionmaking agency may prepare and adopt a Statement of Overriding Considerations, pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines. State CEQA Guidelines Section 15091 does not require specific findings to address environmental effects that an EIR identifies as “no impact” or a “less than significant” impact.

Implementation of the proposed project would not result in any impacts that are considered significant, adverse, or unavoidable. All environmental issues were determined to result in less than significant impacts or can be reduced to less-than-significant levels with the incorporation of mitigation measures.

Thus, the City is not required to adopt a statement of overriding considerations. 164
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 2
Section 15093 of the CEQA Guidelines states the following:
a) CEQA requires the decision-making agency to balance, as applicable, the economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits of a proposed project against its unavoidable environmental risks when determining whether to approve the project. If the specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits of a proposed project outweigh the unavoidable adverse environmental effects, the adverse environmental effects may be considered “acceptable.”
b) When the lead agency approves a project which will result in the occurrence of significant effects which are identified in the Final EIR but are not avoided or substantially lessened, the agency shall state in writing the specific reasons to support its action based on the Final EIR and/or other information in the record. The statement of overriding considerations shall be supported by substantial evidence in the record. c) If an agency makes a statement of overriding considerations, the statement should be included in the record of the project approval and should be mentioned in the notice of determination. This statement does not substitute for, and shall be in addition to, findings required pursuant to Section 15091.

The Final EIR for the project identified potentially significant effects that could result from the project.

The City finds that the inclusion of certain mitigation measures as part of the approval of the project would reduce these effects to less-than‐significant levels.

The City also finds that the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the project, which is incorporated by reference and made part of these Findings, meets the requirements of PRC Section 21081.6 by providing for the implementation and monitoring of measures intended to mitigate potentially significant effects of the proposed project.

Pursuant to PRC Section 21082.1(c)(3), the City also finds that these Findings reflect the City’s independent judgment as the lead agency for the project.

1.1.1 Custodian and Location of Records
The documents and other materials that constitute the Record of Proceedings for the City’s actions related to the project are located at the City of Oxnard, 214 South C Street, Oxnard, California 93030. The City is the custodian of the Record of Proceedings for the proposed project.

1.2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project would include the construction and operation of a temporary outdoor vehicle storage facility (vehicle storage facility or facility) for a maximum of 5 years on the approximately 34-acre project site.

The facility would include the following:
• Vehicle parking area with gravel base
• Temporary guard house
• Portable restroom
• Perimeter site lighting
165
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 3
• Security fencing (6-feet-high)
• Landscaping
• Site drainage
• Associated infrastructure improvements (e.g., curb cuts, apron) The temporary outdoor vehicle storage facility includes approximately 27.5 acres to accommodate parking for up to 4,944 vehicle spaces, which equates to a ratio of 180 spaces per acre.

Various permits, approvals, and actions by the City of Oxnard and various public agencies may be required to execute and implement the proposed project. The permits from the lead agency that are necessary include:
• City of Oxnard approval of Special Use Permit
• City of Oxnard issuance of Grading Permit
• City of Oxnard issuance of Building and Safety Permits • City of Oxnard Fire Department approval of proposed site improvement • City of Oxnard – water, sewer, and storm drain connection permits

1.2.1 Project Objectives
The Applicant has identified the following objectives for the project.

1. Facilitate commercial success for Port clients to ensure they keep their business in the region, keep 167 local citizens employed, and create the potential for more than 30 jobs in the future.

2. Reduce and consolidate, where feasible, Port vehicle customer reliance on off-Port satellite storage locations, which would reduce the need for car carrier truck movement to distribute vehicles to those locations. The consolidation of vehicle storage closer to the Port would enable a more efficient movement of vehicles and reduce the need for heavy duty truck movement.

3. Provide operational flexibility for the transport of goods (vehicles) that already flow through the Port for purposes of sale, while maintaining existing goods movement and the existing number or capacity of cargo ships.

1.2.2 Discretionary Actions
A discretionary action is an action taken by an agency that calls for the exercise of judgment in deciding whether to approve or how to carry out a project. The project would require consideration of the following discretionary actions by the City:
• Certification of the Final EIR and adoption of a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program • Approval of the Special Use Permit

Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 5

2.0 CEQA FINDINGS OF INDEPENDENT JUDGEMENT

2.1 INDEPENDENT REVIEW AND ANALYSIS
Under CEQA, the lead agency must (1) independently review and analyze the EIR; (2) circulate draft documents that reflect its independent judgment; (3) as part of the certification of an EIR, find that the EIR or declaration reflects the independent judgment of the lead agency; and (4) submit copies of the documents to the State Clearinghouse if there is state agency involvement or if the project is of statewide, regional, or area-wide significance (PRC Section 21082.1[c]).

These Findings reflects the City’s independent judgment. The City has exercised independent judgment in accordance with CEQA Section 21082.1(c)(3) in retaining its own environmental consultant in the preparation of the EIR, as well as reviewing, analyzing, and revising material prepared by the consultant.

Having received, reviewed, and considered the information in the EIR, as well as any and all other information in the record, the City hereby makes findings pursuant to and in accordance with CEQA Sections 21081, 21081.5, and 21081.6.

2.2 SUMMARY OF IMPACTS
The EIR identified a number of direct and indirect potentially significant environmental effects (or “impacts”) resulting from the project. These potentially significant effects can be reduced to a less than significant level through the adoption of feasible mitigation measures.

As identified in Chapters 4, 5, 6, and 7 of the EIR, significant environmental impacts would not occur with regard to the following issues: agriculture and forestry resources, air quality, energy, greenhouse gas emissions, hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology and water quality, land use and planning, mineral resources, population and housing, parks and recreation, wildfire and fire protection, schools, water, wastewater, and solid waste. Additionally, significant environmental impacts would not occur with regard to the following issues: biological resources (federally protected wetlands, wildlife movement, consistency with an adopted habitat conservation plan; and cumulative impacts to biological resources); cultural resources (historical resources; paleontological resources; and cumulative impacts to cultural resources); geology and soils (rupture of an earthquake fault; unstable soils–landslides; expansive soil; seiches and tsunamis; dredging and other maintenance activities); noise (exceedance of established or applicable standards in the local general plan or noise ordinance or other agencies resulting in a temporary, periodic, or permanent increase in ambient noise levels; groundborne vibration or noise; excessive noise levels within the airport land use plan for Oxnard Airport or within 2 miles of Naval Base Ventura County Point Mugu; or cumulative noise impacts); police protection (impacts during operations); or transportation (within the airport land use plan for Oxnard Airport or within 2 miles of Naval Base Ventura County Point Mugu to excessive noise levels; Level of Service standards; change in air traffic patterns; hazards due to a design feature or incompatible uses; emergency access during operations; conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation; CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.3 Subdivision (B); and cumulative traffic impacts). State CEQA Guidelines section 15091 does not require specific findings to address environmental effects that an EIR identifies as “no impact” or a “less than significant” impact. As such, these issue areas are not discussed further within this document. 168
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 6
As identified in Chapters 4, 5, 6, and 7 of the EIR, the project would mitigate, avoid, or substantially lessen to below a level of significance direct, indirect, and/or cumulative potentially significant environmental effects with regard to the following issues: aesthetics (visual character/quality), biological resources (nesting birds), cultural resources (archaeological resources; human remains; tribal cultural resources), geology and soils, noise (non-human species), police protection during construction, and transportation (emergency access).

2.3 IMPACTS DETERMINED TO BE LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT WITH MITIGATION The following summarizes the potentially significant impacts of the proposed project identified in the Final EIR that would be less than significant with implementation of mitigation measures.

2.3.1 Aesthetics

2.3.1.1 AESTHETIC IMPACT TO VISUAL CHARACTER/QUALITY OF THE SITE AND

ITS SURROUNDINGS

DESCRIPTION OF POTENTIAL IMPACT
The project would have a substantial adverse impact to the visual character/quality of the site and its surroundings.

MITIGATION MEASURE(S) AND STANDARD CONDITION(S)
Standard Conditions
SC AES-1 Prior to the issuance of building permits, the Applicant shall submit two copies of landscape and irrigation plans, along with appropriate permit application and fees, to the Development Services Division and obtain approval of such plans.

SC AES-2 Prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy, the Applicant shall install landscape and automatic irrigation systems.

SC AES-3 Prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy, the Applicant shall provide a watering schedule to the site manager and to the Planning Division or designee. The irrigation system shall include automatic rain shut-off devices, or instructions on how to override the irrigation system during rainy periods.

SC AES-4 The Applicant shall install an irrigation system that includes a water sensor shut-off device as a water conservation measure.

SC AES-5 All trees planted or placed on the property by the Applicant shall be a minimum of 24-inchbox size. All shrubs and vines shall be at least five-gallon size, except as otherwise specified by the Special Use Permit.

SC AES-6 The Applicant shall properly maintain landscape planting and all irrigation systems as required by the City Code and as specified by Special Use Permit for the life of the project.

Failure of the Applicant to do so may result in the revocation of this permit and initiation of legal proceedings against Applicant to ensure compliance. 169
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 7
SC AES-7 The Applicant agrees that the project has aesthetic impacts arising from conversion of undeveloped land to developed land, which the landscaping improvements for the project are intended to mitigate. The Applicant further agrees that the landscaping improvements must be maintained for the life of the permit in order to continue to mitigate such impacts.

Mitigation Measures
MM AES-1 The Applicant shall install chain-link fencing with top and bottom rails to provide support for plants.

MM AES-2 In locations where chain-link gates are proposed and plants cannot grow, the Applicant shall install either privacy slats on the chain-link gates or solid gates to block views onto the site.

MM AES-3 Prior to vegetation maturation that effectively buffers views onto the project site, the Applicant shall install screening fabric on the chain-link fencing or other alternative temporary measures approved by the City to fill gaps in the vegetation.

MM AES-4 The Applicant shall provide visual screening of the existing water utility structure/chain-link fence enclosure on the southeast corner of Hueneme Road and Perkins Road complementary to the screening established with the project.

Findings
As discussed in Section 5.1, Aesthetics, of the EIR, the proposed project would be compatible with surrounding development, including the Hueneme Industrial Park, shopping center, and the City of Oxnard Advanced Water Purification Facility, and the proposed use is allowed in the M-1-PD (Light Manufacturing Zone with Planned Development Additive Zone) zone. While the proposed project incorporates screening and landscape measures, it is important that the proposed measures are properly installed and maintained. Thus, visual character/quality impacts are considered potentially significant. The proposed project would be subject to Standard Conditions SC AES-1 through SC AES-7 that require landscape and irrigation plans, and the proper installation and maintenance of site landscaping and irrigation systems in compliance with City Code Section 16-165, and Mitigation Measures MM AES-1 through MM AES-4, that ensure the site landscaping and the fencing provide adequate screening. Thus, implementation of Standard Conditions SC AES-1 through SC AES-7 and Mitigation Measures MM AES-1 through MM AES-4 would result in less than significant visual character/ quality impacts associated with the project.

2.3.2 Biological Resources

2.3.2.1 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES IMPACT TO NESTING BIRDS

DESCRIPTION OF POTENTIAL IMPACT
The project would have a substantial adverse impact to suitable habitat for the burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia) and the California horned lark (Eremophila alpestris actia) and to ground-nesting bird species, including the western meadow lark (Sturnella neglecta), burrowing owl, and the California horned lark.

Mitigation Measure(s)
MM BIO-1 To avoid the disturbance of nesting and special-status birds, including raptor species protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and California Fish and Game Code 170
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 8
(CFGC), activities related to the project including, but not limited to, vegetation removal, ground disturbance, demolition, and construction shall occur outside of the bird breeding season (February 1 through August 31), if practicable.

If construction must begin during the breeding season, then a pre-construction nesting bird survey shall be conducted no more than seven (7) days prior to initiation of ground disturbance and vegetation removal activities.

The pre-construction nesting bird survey shall be conducted on foot inside the project site, including a 50-foot buffer and in inaccessible areas (e.g., private lands) from afar using binoculars, to the extent practicable. The survey shall be conducted by a biologist familiar with the identification of avian species known to occur in southern California.

If nests are found, an avoidance buffer (dependent upon the species, the proposed work activity, and existing disturbances associated with land uses outside of the site) shall be determined and demarcated by the biologist with bright orange construction fencing, flagging, construction lathe, or other means. All construction personnel shall be notified as to the existence of the buffer zone and to avoid entering the buffer zone during the nesting season. No ground-disturbing activities shall occur inside this buffer until the avian biologist has confirmed that breeding/nesting is complete and the young have fledged the nest.

Encroachment into the buffer shall occur only if authorized by the qualified biologist, who shall monitor activities to ensure that nesting birds are not adversely affected.

In addition, for any construction activities, the applicant shall retain the services of a qualified biologist or environmental resources specialist to conduct sensitive species surveys (including birds and other terrestrial species) of the project site. The environmental resources specialist shall conduct surveys no more than two weeks prior to the approved construction activities to detect any active sensitive species. In the event that any sensitive species are present in or adjacent to the construction area but do not exhibit reproductive behavior and are not within the estimated breeding/reproductive cycle of the subject species, the environmental resources specialist shall implement a resource avoidance program with sufficient buffer areas to ensure adverse impacts to such resources are avoided.

Findings
As discussed in Section 5.4, Biological Resources, of the EIR, potential ground nesting species, such as the western meadow lark, identified on-site during the field reconnaissance survey, could nest on-site.

Additionally, there is the potential for the burrowing owl, known to winter in the Oxnard Plain, and California horned lark to occur on site. Construction activities associated with the proposed project could adversely affect nesting birds if they are present on or adjacent to the site, through direct mortality or abandonment of nests. The loss of a nest due to construction activities would be a violation of the MBTA and California Fish and Game Code Section 3503. Thus, implementation of the proposed project would result in potentially significant impacts to the following ground-nesting bird species: western meadow lark, burrowing owl, and California horned lark. Mitigation Measure MM BIO-1 would reduce project-related impacts to less than significant by encouraging site disturbance and construction activities outside of the bird breeding season or a pre-construction nesting bird survey and application of the biologist’s recommendations during the site disturbance and construction activities. Implementation of MM BIO-1 would reduce impacts to suitable habitat for the burrowing owl and the California horned lark, and impacts to ground-nesting bird species, including the western meadow lark, burrowing owl, and the California horned lark to less than significant. 171

2.3.3 Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources

2.3.3.1 CULTURAL AND TRIBAL CULTURAL RESOURCES IMPACT TO

ARCHEOLOGICAL RESOURCES

DESCRIPTION OF POTENTIAL IMPACT
The project could result in impacts to potentially undiscovered archaeological resources.

Mitigation Measure(s)
MM CUL-1 Archaeological Monitoring. Prior to ground disturbance activities, the Applicant and/or subsequent responsible parties shall retain a Principal Investigator/Archaeologist, meeting the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards, and with experience in California prehistoric and historic resources (experience within Ventura County preferred), to complete the following:
compose a Cultural Resource Monitoring and Inadvertent Discovery Plan (Plan), manage archaeological monitoring and address any inadvertent discoveries identified during project implementation. The purpose of the Plan is to outline cultural monitoring (archaeological and Native American/Tribal) protocols and a program of treatment and mitigation in the case of an inadvertent discovery of cultural (archaeological or Native American/Tribal) resources during ground-disturbing phases and to provide for the proper identification, evaluation, treatment, and protection of any cultural resources in accordance with CEQA throughout the duration of the project. Existence and importance of adherence to this Plan shall be stated on all projectsite plans intended for use by those conducting the ground disturbing activities.

The Principal Investigator/Archaeologist shall manage archaeological monitoring conducted by archaeological technicians during initial ground disturbances. Initial excavation is defined as initial construction-related earth moving of sediments from their place of deposition. As it pertains to cultural monitoring (archaeological or Native American/Tribal), this definition excludes movement of sediments after they have been initially disturbed or displaced by project-related construction. The retained Principal Investigator/Archaeologist shall oversee and establish monitoring efforts as needed (increase, decrease, or discontinue monitoring frequency) based on the observed potential for construction activities to encounter cultural deposits or material. The archaeological monitor shall be responsible for maintaining daily monitoring logs. The requirement for archaeological monitoring shall be noted on all construction plans to ensure implementation. Upon completion of all ground disturbing activities, an archaeological monitoring report shall be prepared within 30 business days following completion of ground disturbance and submitted to the City for review. This report shall document compliance with approved cultural mitigation, all monitoring efforts, and include an appendix with daily monitoring logs. The final report shall be submitted to the City and the South Central Coastal Information Center.

MM CUL-2 Native American/Tribal Monitoring - Prior to ground disturbance activities, the Applicant and/or subsequent responsible parties shall retain a Native American/Tribal monitor/entity selected from the list of California Native American Tribes (maintained by the NAHC) and that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the geographic area of the project site. The Applicant and/or subsequent responsible parties shall make arrangements with the Native American/Tribal monitor/entity to enter into a contract with the intent of securing a total of 172
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 10
one Native American/Tribal monitor to be present during initial ground disturbance. Initial ground disturbance is defined as initial construction-related earthmoving of sediments from their place of deposition. As it pertains to cultural resource (archaeological or Native American/Tribal) monitoring, this definition excludes movement of sediments after they have been initially disturbed or displaced by current project-related construction. The Plan created in compliance with MM-CUL-1 shall be provided to the Native American/Tribal monitor/entity under contract prior to commencement of ground disturbing activities. More than one monitor may be required if multiple areas within the projectsite are simultaneously exposed to initial ground disturbance causing monitoring to be hindered by the distance (more than 200 feet apart) of the simultaneous activities.

Findings
As discussed in Section 5.5, Cultural Resources, of the EIR, archival research indicated that there is one known archaeological site within a 0.25-mile radius of the project site boundaries. A foot reconnaissance of the project site in 2020 indicated two clusters (Locus1 1 and 2) of low density weathered marine shell, one chert biface fragment, and one weathered elasmobranch fish vertebra. Subsurface testing of the areas identified as Locus 1 and Locus 2 was performed and found that no known cultural resources exist within the proposed project site and based on the presence of disturbed and/or fill soils to depths below proposed depths of disturbance for the project, no impacts to known or unknown cultural resources are expected.

Nonetheless, the proposed project involves minimal on-site ground-disturbing activities (approximately 1/10th inch to 1.95 feet)2for grubbing, grading, or other activities. In addition, the installation of site drainage infrastructure could require grading of small areas to a depth of 24 inches (2 feet). On-site areas that would not be disturbed include the site’s periphery that has been previously disturbed by pipelines, roads, and the Ventura County Rail Road right-of-way. These activities could result in impacts to undiscovered archaeological resources. Mitigation Measures MM CUL-1 and MM CUL-2 require archaeological and Native American monitoring during ground disturbing activities to avoid or document any artifacts or archaeological features that may be encountered. Implementation of Mitigation Measures MM CUL-1 and MM CUL-2 reduce potentially significant impacts to less than significant.

2.3.3.2 CULTURAL AND TRIBAL CULTURAL RESOURCES IMPACT TO HUMAN REMAINS

Findings of Fact – September 2022 11
Findings
As discussed in Section 5.5, Cultural Resources, of the EIR, no human remains or cemeteries are known to exist in or near the project site. However, there is always the possibility that subsurface construction activities associated with the proposed project improvements, such as trenching and grading, would potentially damage or destroy previously undiscovered human remains. In the event of the accidental discovery or recognition of any human remains, CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5; Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5; Public Resources Code Section 5097.94 and Section 5097.98 must be followed.

Implementation of Mitigation Measure MM CUL-2 would reduce potentially significant impacts associated with the discovery of human remains to less than significant.

2.3.3.3 CULTURAL AND TRIBAL CULTURAL RESOURCES IMPACT TO TRIBAL CULTURAL

RESOURCES LISTED OR ELIGIBLE FOR LISTING IN THE CALIFORNIA REGISTER OF

HISTORICAL RESOURCES, OR IN THE LOCAL REGISTER OF HISTORICAL RESOURCES AS DEFINED IN PUBLIC RESOURCES CODE SECTION 5020.1(K)

DESCRIPTION OF POTENTIAL IMPACT
The project would cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of previously undiscovered tribal cultural resources.

Mitigation Measure(s)
MM CUL-2 (see Section 2.3.3.1, above)
Findings
As discussed in Section 5.5, Cultural Resources, of the EIR, no Native American Tribes have requested formal notification from the City pursuant to AB 52. The City also reviewed the results of the archaeological study that included a records search, archival and background research as well as a pedestrian survey and subsurface testing of the project site to further inform and consider the potential of tribal cultural resources to exist within the project site. All efforts to determine whether tribal cultural resources originating from the project site exist and may be impacted by proposed project implementation returned negative. Given the presence of the Ventureño Chumash in and around the City of Oxnard over millennia, and the proximity of a known site within 0.25 miles of the project site, there is the potential for construction of the project to impact unidentified tribal cultural resources. Thus, grounddisturbing activities, such as grading or excavation, could disturb previously unidentified subsurface resources. Implementation of Mitigation Measure MM CUL-2 would reduce any potentially significant impacts to previously undiscovered tribal cultural resources to less than significant.

2.3.4 Geology and Soils

2.3.4.1 GEOLOGICAL IMPACT TO SEISMIC GROUND SHAKING

DESCRIPTION OF POTENTIAL IMPACT
The project would directly or indirectly cause potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death involving strong seismic ground shaking.

Mitigation Measure(s)
MM GEO-1 Prior to issuance of grading permits, the Applicant or designee shall prepare and submit a soils, geologic, and structural evaluation report prepared by a registered soils engineer and/or structural engineer for review and approval by the City of Oxnard Building and Engineering Division. The recommendations in the report shall be implemented during site grading and construction.

Findings
As discussed in Section 5.7, Geology and Soils, of the EIR, there are a number of potentially active/active faults in the region including the Oak Ridge, Pitas Point-Ventura, Anacapa, and Malibu Coast faults; however, these faults are located approximately 1.5 miles to 10 miles from the City. Although some structural damage is typically not avoidable during a large earthquake, the proposed project would be constructed to meet existing construction ordinances and the California Building Code in order to protect against building collapse and major injury during a seismic event. The California Building Code includes specific design measures, which are based on the determination of Site Classification and Seismic Design Categories specific to the project site. These design measures are intended to maximize structural stability in the event of an earthquake. Thus, adherence to the California Building Code requirements, as well as Mitigation Measure MM GEO-1 would reduce impacts related to strong seismic shaking to less than significant.

2.3.4.2 GEOLOGICAL IMPACT RESULTING FROM UNSTABLE SOILS AND LIQUEFACTION

DESCRIPTION OF POTENTIAL IMPACT
The project would be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the project, and result in unstable soils and on- or off-site liquefaction.

Mitigation Measure(s)
MM GEO-1 (see Section 2.3.4.1, above)
Findings
As discussed in Section 5.7, Geology and Soils, of the EIR, a majority of the City of Oxnard is susceptible to liquefaction as a result of underlying thick alluvial deposits and high groundwater levels. In addition, the City of Oxnard is located in a Seismic Hazard Area for liquefaction according to seismic hazard mapping conducted by the California Geological Survey. To ensure that the temporary on-site structures do not experience structural damage due to liquefaction, the Applicant shall implement the recommendations in the soils, geologic, and structural evaluation report required per Mitigation Measure GEO-1 and adhere to the California Building Code requirements for the guard house, which reduce potentially significant impacts to less than significant with mitigation incorporated.

In addition, the on-site soils are characterized as unstable soils. To ensure that the temporary on-site structures do not experience structural damage due to unstable soils, the Applicant shall implement the recommendations in the soils, geologic, and structural evaluation report required per Mitigation Measure MM GEO-1 and adhere to the California Building Code requirements for the guard house, which reduce potentially significant impacts to less than significant with mitigation incorporated.

2.3.5 Noise

2.3.5.1 NOISE IMPACT TO NON-HUMAN SPECIES

DESCRIPTION OF POTENTIAL IMPACT
The project would result in noise impacts to special-status species, including the western meadow lark, burrowing owl, and the California horned lark, as well as suitable habitat for the burrowing owl and the California horned lark.

Mitigation Measure(s)
MM BIO-1 (see Section 2.3.2.1, above)
Findings
The proposed project would result in a potentially significant impact to suitable habitat for the burrowing owl and the California horned lark, as well as a potentially significant impact to ground-nesting bird species: western meadow lark, burrowing owl, and the California horned lark. With the implementation of Mitigation Measure MM BIO-1, project-related impacts to these special-status species or habitat are reduced to less than significant.

2.3.6 Police Protection

2.3.6.1 POLICE PROTECTION IMPACTS DURING CONSTRUCTION

DESCRIPTION OF POTENTIAL IMPACT
The project would result in potential construction-related traffic impacts on the California Highway Patrol, which regulates traffic in the City.

Mitigation Measure(s)
MM PP-1 Prior to construction, the Applicant shall prepare a Traffic Control Plan for implementation during the construction phase, as deemed necessary by the City Traffic Engineer. The Plan may include the following provisions, among others:
• At least one unobstructed lane shall be maintained in both directions on the following surrounding roadways: Hueneme Road and Perkins Road.
• At any time only a single lane is available, the Applicant shall provide a temporary traffic signal, signal carriers (i.e., flag persons), or other appropriate traffic controls to allow travel in both directions.
• If construction activities require the complete closure of a roadway segment, the Applicant shall provide appropriate signage indicating detours/alternative routes.

Findings
Construction-related traffic on the project site also is not expected to result in impacts on the California Highway Patrol, which regulates traffic in the City. Slow-moving construction-related traffic on adjacent roadways could reduce optimal traffic flows and could delay emergency vehicles traveling through the area. However, this would not result in a significant impact on traffic flows because construction-related traffic would only occur during short periods of time during the day and would cease upon completion. In order to prevent construction-related traffic impacts, Mitigation Measure MM PP-1 has been included to prepare a construction traffic control plan prior to the initiation of any construction activities and would reduce potentially significant impacts to less than significant.

3.0 FINDINGS ON PROJECT ALTERNATIVES
CEQA requires that an EIR describe a range of reasonable alternatives to a project, or to the location of the project, that could feasibly attain the basic objectives of that project, and to evaluate the comparative merits of the alternatives (14 CCR 15126.6[a]). The CEQA Guidelines direct that the selection of alternatives be governed by “a rule of reason” (14 CCR 15126.6[a], [f]). CEQA directs that the scope of alternatives considered shall be limited to ones that would avoid or substantially lessen the significant effects of the project (14 CCR 15126.6[f]). Notably, this project does not result in any significant and unavoidable impacts.

3.1 ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED AND ELIMINATED DURING THE SCOPING/

PROJECT PLANNING PROCESS
The CEQA Guidelines provide that an EIR should “identify any alternatives that were considered by the Lead Agency but were rejected as infeasible during the scoping process and briefly explain the reasons underlying the Lead Agency’s determination” (14 CCR 15126.6[c]). The following is a discussion of the project alternatives proposed during the scoping and planning process and the reasons they were not selected for detailed analysis in the EIR.

With respect to the feasibility of potential alternatives to the proposed project, CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6(t)(l) states, “Among the factors that may be taken into account when addressing the feasibility of alternatives are site suitability, economic viability, availability of infrastructure, general plan consistency, other plans or regulatory limitations, jurisdictional boundaries … and whether the proponent can reasonably acquire, control or otherwise have access to the alternative site.” In determining an appropriate range of proposed project alternatives to be evaluated in the EIR, a number of possible alternatives were initially considered and then rejected. Proposed project alternatives were rejected because they could not accomplish the basic objectives of the proposed project, or they would not have resulted in a reduction of significant adverse environmental impacts.

REDUCED PROJECT ALTERNATIVE
The City considered a Reduced Project Alternative that would reduce the site acreage and would not utilize more than 50% of the approximately 34-acre site. The reduction in total acres would also reduce the acreage for temporary outdoor vehicle storage capacity from approximately 27.5 acres under the proposed project to approximately 14 acres. This would reduce the vehicle storage capacity from 4,944 to 2,472 vehicle spaces.

This Alternative does not fulfill a key project objective to reduce and consolidate Port vehicle customer reliance on Off-Port storage locations, nor would this Alternative eliminate the need for car carrier truck movement to distribute vehicles to those Off-Port storage locations.

In addition, fewer new jobs would be created under this Alternative, thus not fulfilling a second key project objective regarding employment in the region.
180
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 18
Finding
The City rejects the Reduced Project Alternative on the following grounds, which provides sufficient justification for rejection of this alternative: the Reduced Project Alternative fails to meet most of the project objectives. Thus, the Reduced Project Alternative was rejected from further consideration in the EIR.

ELECTRIC CAR CARRIER TRUCKS ALTERNATIVE
The City considered an alternative that assumes that electric car carrier trucks would be used by the Port Customer to transport vehicles to existing Off-Port storage locations.

An electric truck is an electric vehicle powered by batteries designed to deliver cargo. The recent development of lithium batteries has broadened the applicability of electric trucks due to the increased range of several hundred miles. Battery powered electric vehicles have no exhaust emissions, but emissions are created from the production and distribution of the energy used to charge them.

At this time, the Port Customer is not using electric car carrier trucks to transport vehicles to existing OffPort storage locations, nor would car carrier trucks be used for the proposed project. While the use of electric trucks would reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the financial implications to the Port Customer to rent or purchase such equipment is unknown at this time, and as such, this Alternative is infeasible.

Additionally, to the knowledge of the Port Customer, there are no commercially available electric car carrier trucks. Therefore, it would not be financially possible for the Port or City to procure electric car carrier trucks for use in the proposed project, and electric car carrier trucks are not anticipated to be feasible for the Port or City to acquire during the five-year life of the proposed project. Therefore, under this alternative without the use of traditional car carrier trucks, vehicle transport would not be able to occur.

Because electric car carrier trucks are not a feasible option for vehicle transport at this time, this Alternative does not fulfill a key project objective to reduce and consolidate Port Customer reliance on Off-Port storage locations and thus, reduce the need for car carrier truck (diesel or electric) movement to distribute vehicles to those locations. Thus, the Electric Car Carrier Trucks Alternative was rejected from further consideration in the EIR.

Finding
The City rejects the Electric Car Carrier Trucks Alternative on the following grounds which provides sufficient justification for rejection of this alternative: this alternative is infeasible given that there are no commercially available electric car carrier trucks and no such trucks are likely to become available within the next 5 years. Thus, the Electric Car Carrier Trucks Alternative was rejected from further consideration in the EIR.

ALTERNATIVE LOCATIONS
Pursuant to Section 15126.6(f)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines, the City considered the potential for alternative locations to the project. The City is mostly developed, with the exception of some undeveloped land to the south of the project site, where the Ormond Lagoon and various undeveloped parcels are located.

Therefore, there are very limited areas of approximately equivalent size to the project site that could be used for the project. In addition, the project applicant does not control another site within the City of comparable land area that is available for development of the proposed project. One of the factors for 181
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 19
feasibility of an alternative is “whether the proponent can reasonably acquire, control or otherwise have access to the alternative site.” Because the City is highly urbanized and is largely built out, obtaining another site of a similar size in a similar location is not considered feasible. It should also be noted that the project site is surrounded by development to the east, north, and west. As such, an alternative location was ultimately rejected from further analysis in the EIR.

Finding
The City rejects the Alternative Locations, on the following ground, which provides sufficient justification for rejection of this alternative: the alternative is infeasible given that the project applicant does not own or control any other property within the City that would be suitable for development of the proposed project. Therefore, this alternative is eliminated from further consideration.

3.2 ALTERNATIVES SELECTED FOR FURTHER ANALYSIS
This section discusses a reasonable range of alternatives to the proposed project, including a No Project Alternative, in compliance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6(e). These alternatives are as follows:
• Alternative One: No Project Alternative
• Alternative Two: Two Existing Off-Port Vehicle Storage Locations • Alternative Three: Existing Zoning
These alternatives are evaluated for their ability to avoid or substantially lessen the impacts of the proposed project identified in the Final EIR, and in consideration of their ability to meet the basic objectives of the proposed project as described in the Final EIR.

3.2.1 Alternative One: No Project Alternative
Section 15126.6(e) of the CEQA Guidelines requires that an EIR evaluate and analyze the impacts of a No Project Alternative. The “purpose of describing and analyzing a no project alternative is to allow decision makers to compare the impacts of approving the proposed project with the impacts of not approving the proposed project” (14 CCR 15126.6[e][1]). When defining the No Project Alternative, the analysis must be informed by “what would be reasonably expected to occur in the foreseeable future if the project were not approved, based on current plans and consistent with available infrastructure and community services” (14 CCR 15126.6[e][2]).

Description
Section 15126.6(e) of the CEQA Guidelines requires that an EIR evaluate and analyze the impacts of the No Project Alternative, which reflects the “circumstances under which the project does not proceed.” Under the No Project Alternative, no development would occur on the project site. Accordingly, the site characteristics of this alternate would be equivalent to the existing conditions and would remain as vacant and undeveloped land.

Impacts
Under Alternative 1, the No Project/ No Build Alternative, all environmental impacts would be reduced further below the project’s less- than–significant impacts. 182
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 20
Finding
The City rejects the No Project Alternative on the following grounds, each of which individually provides sufficient justification for rejection of this alternative: (1) the No Project Alternative fails to meet any of the project objectives; (2) the No Project Alternative does not reduce or eliminate any significant and unavoidable impacts associated with the project, as the project does not result in any significant and unavoidable impacts.

3.2.2 Alternative Two: Two Existing Off-Port Vehicle
Storage Locations
Description
Alternative Two assumes the existing vehicle storage operations of GLOVIS (Customer) at the Port of Hueneme (Port) and Off-Port locations for vehicle storage within the local area, including within Oxnard, Ventura, Camarillo, and Ventura County would continue.

As such, imported vehicles would be transported by Customer car carrier trucks from the Port to two OffPort storage locations:

1. Camarillo Airport (555 Airport Way, Camarillo)

2. Tuff Shed (3355 Ventura Road, Ventura)
The locations are approximately 10.6 miles and 9 miles, respectively, from the Port.

Impacts
Under Alternative Two, Two Existing Off-Port Vehicle Storage Locations, environmental impacts related to agriculture and forestry resources, hazards and hazardous materials, population and housing, parks and recreation, schools, and wastewater would be the same as compared to the project, or neither environmentally superior nor inferior to the project.

Alternative Two would result in reduced impacts to aesthetics, biological resources, cultural and tribal cultural resources, geology and soils, wildfire and fire protection, police protection, water, and solid waste, as Alternative Two would not result in development of an undeveloped site. Therefore, Alternative Two would be environmentally superior to the proposed project in regard to these environmental issue areas.

Alternative Two would result in increased impacts to air quality, energy, greenhouse gases, noise, and transportation due to the increased distances to the two locations (Camarillo Airport 10.6 miles, Tuff Shed 9 miles) from the Port. In addition, because the proposed project allows for the consolidation of multiple Off-Port storage locations to a single site within one jurisdiction in a zoning district that allows the proposed use, Alternative Two would result in increased impacts to land use. The Camarillo Airport site and proposed project site are located within MRZ-1, and thus does not contain mineral resources.

However, the Tuff Shed site in Ventura is located within MRZ-2 zone, which does contain mineral resources of regional and statewide significance, resulting in an increased impacts to mineral resources under Alternative Two. Lastly, while hydrology and drainage impacts would remain less than significant under both Alternative Two and the proposed project, the proposed project provides more pervious 183
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 21
surface and infrastructure to improve hydrology and water quality impacts, both on-site and off-site.

Therefore, Alternative Two is considered environmentally inferior to the proposed project in regard to these environmental issue areas.

Objectives
Alternative Two would partially meet Objective 1, as the project would facilitate commercial success for Port clients to ensure they keep their business in the region, and keep 167 local citizens employed.

However, Alternative Two does not provide for new jobs. In addition, Alternative Two would not meet Objective 2, as Alternative Two would not reduce and consolidate Port vehicle customer reliance on offPort satellite storage locations, which would reduce the need for car carrier truck movement to distribute vehicles to those locations, to enable a more efficient movement of vehicles and reduce the need for heavy duty truck movement. Lastly, the project would meet Objective 3, as it would provide operational flexibility for the transport of goods (vehicles) that already flow through the Port for purposes of sale, while maintaining existing goods movement and the existing number or capacity of cargo ships.

Finding
The City rejects Alternative 2 on the following grounds, each of which individually provides sufficient justification for rejection of this alternative: (1) Alternative 2 would result in greater impacts to some environmental resource areas; and (2) Alternative 2 does not reduce or eliminate any significant and unavoidable impacts associated with the project, as the project does not result in any significant and unavoidable impacts.

3.2.3 Alternative Three: Existing Zoning
Description
Alternative Three, Existing Zoning, assumes the approximately 34-acre project site would be developed with a light manufacturing use consistent with the M-1-PD zone (Light Manufacturing Zone with Planned Development Additive) and in accordance with applicable use and development standards required per Oxnard City Code Chapter 16, Zoning.

The M-1-PD zone permits the following: maximum building height of 55 feet and a maximum floor area ratio of 70%. For this Alternative, the maximum development assumes a 40% floor area ratio and 587,189 square feet.

Impacts
Under Alternative Three, Existing Zoning, environmental impacts relative to agriculture and forestry resources, biological resources, cultural and tribal cultural resources, geology and soils, mineral resources, population and housing, and schools would be similar compared to the project.

Alternative Three would result in greater impacts relative to aesthetics, as the site would be developed with light manufacturing uses with buildings up to 55 feet in height, thus changing the visual character of the site. In addition, Alternative Three would result in greater impacts relative to air quality, energy, greenhouse gas emissions, and noise, as the duration of both construction and operations associated with Alternative Three would be increased compared to the project. Light manufacturing uses have the 184
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 22
potential to manufacture, transport, use, or dispose of hazardous materials and thus impacts to hazards and hazardous materials would be increased under Alternative Three. Alternative Three would result in less pervious area and more impervious area compared to the project. Thus, impacts to hydrology and water quality would be increased compared to the project. Although Alternative Three would be consistent with the City’s Zoning Code and compatible with surrounding uses, similar to the proposed project, Alternative Three would be subject to the Ventura County Airport Comprehensive Land Use Plan (ACLUP) land use or compatibility guidelines, and Federal Aviation Regulations Part 77 height limitations and would be required to be consistent with the ACLUP and Federal Aviation Regulations Part 77.

Therefore, Alternative Three would result in greater impacts to lad use.

In addition, the number of employees associated with Alternative Three would increase, resulting in an increase in demand for parks and recreation, wildfire and fire protection, and police protection. Regarding transportation, the vehicle trips generated by a 587,189 square foot light manufacturing uses could result in significantly more peak daily, A.M. peak hour, and P.M. peak hour trips that affect a larger traffic impact area and would increase vehicle miles traveled. As Alternative Three would require water and wastewater infrastructure to be installed, impacts associated with water and wastewater would be increased compared to the project. Lastly, the quantity of solid waste generated is dependent upon the light manufacturing use but would be greater than the proposed project. Therefore, Alternative Three is considered environmentally inferior to the proposed project in regard to aesthetics, air quality, energy, greenhouse gas emissions, hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology and water quality, land use, noise, parks and recreation, wildfire and fire protection, police protection, transportation, water, wastewater, and solid waste.

Objectives
Alternative Three would not meet any of the project objectives. Alternative Three would not facilitate commercial success for Port client to ensure they keep their business in the region, keep 167 local citizens employed, and create the potential for more than 30 jobs in the future; reduce and consolidate, where feasible, Port vehicle customer reliance on Off-Port satellite storage locations, which would reduce the need for car carrier truck movement to distribute vehicle to those locations; or provide operational flexibility for the transport of goods (vehicles) that already flow through the Port for purposes of sale, while maintaining existing goods movement and the existing number or capacity of cargo ships.

Finding
The City rejects Alternative Three on the following grounds, each of which individually provides sufficient justification for rejection of this alternative: (1) Alternative Three fails to meet most of the project objectives; (2) Alternative Three would result in greater impacts to some environmental resource areas; and (3) Alternative Three does not reduce or eliminate any significant and unavoidable impacts associated with the project, as the project does not result in any significant and unavoidable impacts.

3.2.4 Environmentally Superior Alternative
Alternative One, the No Project Alternative, would result in the least environmental impacts and would be the environmentally superior alternative. However, Section 15126.6(e)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines states that if the environmentally superior alternative is the No Project Alternative, the EIR shall also identify an environmentally superior alternative among the other alternatives. In this case, the environmentally superior alternative is Alternative Two, Two Existing Off-Port Vehicle Storage Locations. 185
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 23
Alternative Two would partially meet Objective 1, would not meet Objective 2, and would meet Objective

3. As set forth above, the City rejects Alternative Two on the following grounds, each of which individually provides sufficient justification for rejection of this alternative: (1) Alternative Two would result in greater impacts to some environmental resource areas; and (2) Alternative Two does not reduce or eliminate any significant and unavoidable impacts associated with the project, as the project does not result in any significant and unavoidable impacts.

4.0 GENERAL CEQA FINDINGS
Based on the foregoing Findings and the information contained in the administrative record, and as conditioned by the foregoing, the City has determined the following:

1. The plans for the proposed project have been prepared and analyzed so as to provide for public involvement in the planning and the CEQA processes.

2. To the degree that any impacts described in the Draft EIR are perceived to have a significant effect on the environment, or such impacts appear ambiguous as to their effect on the environment, any significant effect of such impacts has been substantially lessened or avoided by the mitigation measures set forth in the Draft and Final EIR.

3. Comments regarding the Draft EIR received during the public review period have been adequately addressed in the Final EIR. Any significant effects described in such comments were avoided or substantially lessened by the mitigation measures described in the Draft and Final EIR.

4.1 FINDINGS REGARDING RECIRCULATION
The City finds that the Draft EIR does not require recirculation under CEQA (CEQA Section 21092.1, CEQA Guidelines Section 15088.5). CEQA Guidelines Section 15088.5 requires recirculation of an EIR prior to certification of the Final EIR when “significant new information is added to the EIR after public notice is given of the availability of the draft EIR for public review.” As described in CEQA Guidelines Section 15088.5:

New information added to an EIR is not “significant” unless the EIR is changed in a way that deprives the public of a meaningful opportunity to comment upon a substantial adverse environmental effect of the project or a feasible way to mitigate or avoid such an effect (including a feasible project alternative) that the project’s proponents have declined to implement. “Significant new information” requiring recirculation includes, for example, a disclosure showing that:

1. A new significant environmental impact would result from the project or from a new mitigation measure proposed to be implemented;

2. A substantial increase in the severity of an environmental impact would result unless mitigation measures are adopted that reduce the impact to a level of insignificance;

3. A feasible project alternative or mitigation measure considerably different from others previously analyzed would clearly lessen the significant environmental impacts of the project, but the project’s proponents decline to adopt it;

4. The draft EIR was so fundamentally and basically inadequate and conclusory in nature that meaningful public review and comment were precluded.

In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15088.5(b) provides that “recirculation is not required where the new information added to the EIR merely clarifies and amplifies or makes insignificant modifications in an adequate EIR.” Recirculation also is not required simply because new information is added to an EIR; 188
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Findings of Fact – September 2022 26
indeed, new information is oftentimes added given CEQA’s public/agency comment and response process and CEQA’s post-Draft EIR circulation requirement of proposed responses to comments submitted by public agencies. In short, recirculation is “intended to be an exception rather than the general rule” (Laurel Heights Improvement Assn. v. Regents of University of California (1993) 6 Cal.4th 1112, 1132).

As such, the City makes the following Findings:
• None of the public comments submitted to the City regarding the Draft EIR present any significant new information that would require the Draft EIR to be recirculated for public review. • No new or modified mitigation measures are proposed that would have the potential to create new significant environmental impacts.
• The Draft EIR adequately analyzed project alternatives and there are no feasible alternatives or mitigation measures considerably different from others previously analyzed that would clearly lessen the significant environmental impacts of the project. • The Draft EIR was not fundamentally and basically inadequate and conclusory in nature and did not preclude meaningful public review and comment.

In this legal context, the City finds that recirculation of the Draft EIR prior to certification is not required.

In addition to providing responses to comments, the Final EIR includes revisions to expand upon information already presented in the Draft EIR; explain or enhance the evidentiary basis for the Draft EIR’s findings; update information; and to make clarifications, amplifications, updates, or helpful revisions to the Draft EIR. The Final EIR’s revisions, clarifications, and/or updates do not result in any new significant impacts or increase the severity of a previously identified significant impact. In sum, the Final EIR demonstrates that the proposed project would not result in any new significant impacts or increase the severity of a significant impact compared to the analysis presented in the Draft EIR. The changes reflected in the Final EIR also do not indicate that meaningful public review of the Draft EIR was precluded in the first instance. Accordingly, recirculation of the EIR is not required because revisions to the EIR are not significant as defined in Section 15088.5 of the CEQA Guidelines. 189

Section 15097 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines requires that, whenever a public agency approves a project based on a Mitigated Negative Declaration or an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), the public agency shall establish a mitigation monitoring or reporting program to ensure that all adopted mitigation measures are implemented.

The mitigation monitoring and reporting program (MMRP) contained herein is intended to satisfy this requirement of the CEQA Guidelines as it relates to the Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Project (project). This MMRP is intended to be used by City of Oxnard (City) staff to ensure compliance with mitigation measures during project implementation. Mitigation measures identified in this MMRP were developed in the Draft EIR and finalized in the Final EIR prepared for the proposed project.

The Final EIR for the proposed project presents a detailed set of mitigation measures required for implementation. As noted above, the intent of the MMRP is to ensure the effective implementation and enforcement of all adopted mitigation measures. The MMRP will also provide for monitoring of construction activities, as necessary, and in the field identification and resolution of environmental concerns.

11.2 PURPOSE OF THE MITIGATION MONITORING AND

REPORTING PROGRAM
This MMRP has been prepared to ensure that all required mitigation measures are implemented and completed in a sufficient manner before and during project construction and operation. The MMRP may be modified by the City during project implementation, as necessary, in response to changing conditions or other refinements. The MMRP table has been prepared to assist the responsible parties in implementing the mitigation measures. The table identifies each mitigation measure or standard condition; the action required for the measure to be implemented; the time at which the monitoring is to occur; the monitoring conditions; and the agency or party responsible for ensuring that the monitoring is performed. The numbering of mitigation measures and standard conditions follows the numbering sequence found in the Final EIR.

11.3 ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Unless otherwise specified herein, the City is responsible for taking all actions necessary to implement the mitigation measures under its jurisdiction according to the specifications provided for each measure and for demonstrating that the action has been successfully completed. The City, 190
Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Environmental Impact Report
Final EIR – September 2022 11-2
at its discretion, may delegate implementation responsibility or portions thereof to a licensed contractor or other designated agent. The City would be responsible for overall administration of the MMRP and for verifying that City staff members and/or the construction contractor has completed the necessary actions for each measure.

Section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code requires the lead agency to identify the “custodian of documents and other material” which constitutes the “record of proceedings” upon which the action on the project was based. Inquiries should be directed to:

City of Oxnard Community Development Department
Planning & Environmental Services Division
214 South C Street
Oxnard, California, 93030

11.4 REPORTING
Upon completion of the project, the City’s Planning Manager shall prepare a monitoring report on the compliance of the activity with the required mitigation measures. Information regarding inspections and other requirements shall also be compiled and explained in monthly or annual reports, as relevant. Information regarding inspections and other requirements shall be compiled and explained in the report. The report shall be designed to simply and clearly identify whether mitigation measures have been adequately implemented. At a minimum, each report shall identify the mitigation measures or conditions to be monitored for implementation, whether compliance with the mitigation measures or conditions has occurred, the procedures used to assess compliance, and whether further action is required.

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds, after due study, deliberation and public hearing, that the project meets the criteria set out in Sections 16-536 and 16-651 of the OCC; and WHEREAS, the Project has been reviewed by the Development Advisory Committee (DAC) and the DAC has prepared conditions of approval that are incorporated within the recommended permits; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds that the Project conforms to the City of Oxnard 2030 General Plan elements thereof and the Oxnard City Code for the reasons set forth in the Planning Commission Staff Report; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds after due study and deliberation that the applicant agrees with the necessity of and accepts all elements, requirements, and conditions of this Resolution as being a reasonable manner of preserving, protecting, providing for, and fostering the health, safety, and welfare of the citizenry in general and the persons who work, visit or live in this development in particular.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF OXNARD:

SECTION 1. Based on the entire record before the Planning Commission and all written and oral evidence presented, including the Special Use Permit Staff Report and all attachments thereto, the Planning Commission finds:

1. The proposed use is in conformance with the General Plan and other adopted policies of the City of Oxnard.

The Project site has 2030 General Plan land use designations of Industrial Limited (ILT) and Park (PRK) and a zoning designation of Light Manufacturing with Planned Development Additive Zone (M-1-PD). The proposed project includes the development of temporary structures for temporary vehicle storage. Given the temporary use of the site for outdoor vehicle storage for a maximum of five years and that the proposed project does not include permanent structures, the proposed project does not preclude future development for park land or other industrial land uses. As discussed in detail in the Planning Commission Staff Report (Sections 6 b, c, Attachment D, and Attachment E) the Project, as designed and conditioned, meets all applicable development standards. Therefore, the proposed project is in compliance with the 2030 General Plan and other adopted policies of the City of Oxnard and meets this Finding.

2. The nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures shall be considered, and no proposed Special Use Permit shall be granted if the approval body finds such use will adversely affect or be materially 207

detrimental to the adjacent uses, buildings or structures or to the public health, safety or general welfare.

As described in the Staff Report, pursuant to the 2030 General Plan land use designation of Industrial Limited (ILT) and Park (PRK) and the zoning designation of Light Manufacturing with Planned Development Additive Zone (M-1-PD), the proposed use of the project site as a temporary vehicle storage facility, is an allowed use, subject to a Special Use Permit (OCC §16-163). The surrounding uses are characterized by light industrial, commercial, and residential uses, which are predominantly light industrial facilities (commercial trucking facility, Advanced Water Purification Facility), commercial shopping centers, a four lane road (Hueneme Road), single-family residences, railroad tracks and open space. Construction activities, anticipated uses, and development design will be subject to standard construction requirements of the Building, Fire, and Traffic Codes. Therefore, the proposed use and improvements, as conditioned, will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the adjacent uses, buildings or structures or to the public health, safety or general welfare.

3. The site that is subject to the Special Use Permit shall be adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, landscaping, and items which may be required by Section 16-532 (Conditions).

As described in the Staff Report, the project as designed and conditioned meets the development standards of the Light Manufacturing with Planned Development Additive Zone (M-1-PD) zone as described above in Finding Section 1(1). Pursuant to the Zoning Code, the Project has been designed to be consistent with the maximum building height, front, side and rear setbacks, and lot coverage. As detailed in the Staff report, the project site is approximately 34 acres which is adequate to accommodate the required 12 employee parking spaces and the required 30-foot landscape buffer along Hueneme Road. As such, the subject site is adequate in terms of size and as developed the development meets or exceeds City’s design standards.

4. The site that is subject to the Special Use Permit shall be served by highways adequate in width and improved as necessary to carry the kind and quantity of traffic such use will generate.

As described in the Staff Report, the project site will include two driveways for vehicular access from Perkins Road and one driveway for emergency vehicle only access from Hueneme Road. The proposed driveway access would provide sufficient access to the site and would allow for adequate circulation around the site. As described in the EIR, the project will have less than significant impacts to the City roadway network and roadway improvements are not required as a result of the project. Therefore, the site has sufficient access to streets and highways that are adequate in size and existing intersections adjacent to the project site will operate at acceptable levels of service.

5. The site that is subject to the Special Use Permit shall be provided with adequate sewerage, water, fire protection and storm drainage facilities.

As described in the Staff Report, the project includes a portable restroom that will be serviced as needed by a waste-services provider. The project also includes a temporary guardhouse/office building that does not require water. The site will include two driveways for vehicular access from Perkins Road and one driveway for emergency vehicle only access from Hueneme Road. The proposed Project includes drainage improvements along the southeastern side of the site. Furthermore, the Project was reviewed by the Development Advisory Committee for adequate utilities and services. In accordance with the Stormwater Quality Conditions of this Resolution, the Project’s design will comply with stormwater control measures as required by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board’s municipal separate storm sewer system (“MS4”) permit. The Project is consistent with the level of development identified under the General Plan and Oxnard City Code, and therefore is within the anticipated level of development. The project is not anticipated to result in any significant impacts to utilities and public services. Therefore, the site for the proposed use will be provided with adequate sewage, water, fire protection and storm drainage facilities.

SECTION 3. Based on the findings set forth herein and the Staff Report and all attachments thereto, the Planning Commission hereby approves Planning and Zoning Permit No. 18-500-02 (Special Use Permit), subject to the attached conditions of approval.

SECTION 4. The decision of the Planning Commission shall be final unless an appeal of the action is filed in accordance with the provisions of Section 16-545 of the Oxnard City Code.

SECTION 5. The Secretary shall certify the adoption of this Resolution.

Subject: 10/20 Public Hearing-Public comment to Vote NO on the The Port of Hueneme – Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility Project
Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners,
I am writing to urge you to reject the Final EIR (FEIR) and vote NO on the 34-Acre GLOVIS Port Expansion. As Commissioners, it is your job to conduct fair hearings that work to preserve the environment and health of Oxnard residents and avoid using false or inaccurate information when making important decisions for our city.The FEIR fails to include an accurate project description, does not consider impacts to air quality and pollution from diesel trucks, and avoids consideration of alternatives to alleviate the pollution burden on South Oxnard neighborhoods.

The FEIR states the project will not be expanding more shipments into the port, but it also says the project is going to allow more shipments from GLOVIS to create more jobs at the port. Both cannot be true. This project will only bring 14 jobs, all of which are contracted by GLOVIS that pay around minimum wage and are non-union. We want long-term highpaying union jobs in our community.

The Port has said cars stored at the34-acre site will be picked up by diesel trucks to transport them to dealerships around the country but the FEIR does not consider impacts to air quality from diesel trucks. This project will bring more diesel trucks on Hueneme Road, polluting our air with more cancer causing diesel exhaust. Diesel exhaust is the #1 cancer-causing air pollutant and exposure can result in lung function damage in children that lasts a lifetime.

Instead of turning more and more land in South Oxnard into port storage which brings more and more polluting trucks to our neighborhoods, the FEIR should consider other options like using space in the navy base and the use of zero emission trucks.

This FEIR fails to accurately examine the negative impacts of this project. I’m asking that you do not certify the FEIR and deny the Special Use Permit.Oxnard deserves clean air and environmental justice!

Krista Nordstrom

[Ask Planning Action] Question: Port of Hueneme - Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility - PLANNING AND ZONING PERMIT No. 18-500-02 1 message
Daniel Carawan <[email protected]> Fri, Oct 14, 2022 at 7:46 PM To: [email protected]
Sir/Ma'am,
With respect to Project: Port of Hueneme - Temporary Outdoor Vehicle Storage Facility - PLANNING AND ZONING PERMIT No. 18-500-02:
1) How is the relatively smooth flow of traffic going to be ensured at the intersection of Perkins Rd and Hueneme Rd? In other words, when can we expect the Traffic Control Plan? I am fully in favor of economic development, done in a sensible way that balances the interests of the surrounding community and business partners.

The traffic lights at the intersections of Edison Dr and Acturus Ave have increasingly reduced the smooth flow of traffic on Hueneme Rd, increased tailpipe air emissions from engine idling at the traffic light and reduced public safety from vehicles running red lights. While it is an estimate on my part, the east to west vehicle ratio far exceeds the number of vehicles using the lights on Edison Dr. and Acturus Ave.

The above mentioned traffic lights used to be on a timer but have transitioned to sensors. What this has meant in practice is one car coming up to a traffic light from Edison Dr. or Acturus Ave. quickly causes the traffic light on Hueneme Rd to change to red. That is, one vehicle stops around ten vehicles driving on Hueneme Rd., give or take.

In essence, business interests are overriding those of the surrounding community and commuters working in the area.

We do not need greater police presence in this area. We do not need traffic cameras. We need the City of Oxnard and Southern California Edison to ensure that the traffic lights on Hueneme Rd. continue on a timer-basis, not a sensor basis, ensuring traffic flows on Hueneme Rd. continue smoothly, environmental justice and public health are maintained.

Let me respectfully remind the Council how close this Industrial Zone is to the Residential Zone I and thousands of others live in.

Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners,

VOTE NOOOOOO
I understand you’ve been receiving a bunch of these and we hope you read through them.

When I drove down from Thousand Oaks to Oxnard back in the day, I would catch a beautiful view of part of Ventura county. Now, a lot of the time you see SO MUCH smog. It’s ridiculous that such a tiny county can emit so many tons of CO2 into our atmosphere. We haven’t even seen the impact this new Amazon warehouse will create. This county is so diverse and unfortunately a lot of low income families live here. That does not mean you get to come into this beautiful place we call home and capitalize it. We don’t want to have dirty beaches and put up with unfair environmental destruction. As a Gen Z-er I demand that you protect our community/environment!!! The Channel Islands harbor is home to many unique wildlife as well as dolphin and whale breeding grounds. By expanding this harbor you will be affecting the wonderful ecosystem we have off our coast. We have already miserably failed them by fracking off shore causing several oil spills and poisoning the precious wildlife. We are TIRED of capitalists doing things that will benefit their pockets rather than help us advance as a society in a green way. We truly hope you don’t pass this. If not I will loose even more hope in humanity. Please!! I am writing to urge you to reject the Final EIR (FEIR) and vote NO on the 34-Acre GLOVIS Port Expansion. As Commissioners, it is your job to conduct fair hearings that work to preserve the environment and health of Oxnard residents and avoid using false or inaccurate information when making important decisions for our city.The FEIR fails to include an accurate project description, does not consider impacts to air quality and pollution from diesel trucks, and avoids consideration of alternatives to alleviate the pollution burden on South Oxnard neighborhoods.

It is not accurate to describe this project as temporary when the FEIR fails to say what the long term plans are for Port Storage after the 3-5 years. It has been submitted to the record that the Port of Hueneme and GLOVIS already have plans, started contracts, and applied for grants to start a much bigger 250 acre expansion project, over seven times as big as this one farther down Hueneme Road, but it was left out of the FEIR. There cannot be a vote on this project without a study on long-term plans for Port storage. 260

Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners,
I am writing to urge you to reject the Final EIR (FEIR) and vote NO on the 34-Acre GLOVIS Port Expansion. As Commissioners, it is your job to conduct fair hearings that work to preserve the environment and health of Oxnard residents and avoid using false or inaccurate information when making important decisions for our city.The FEIR fails to include an accurate project description, does not consider impacts to air quality and pollution from diesel trucks, and avoids consideration of alternatives to alleviate the pollution burden on South Oxnard neighborhoods.

This project will bring more diesel trucks on Hueneme Road, polluting our air with more cancer causing diesel exhaust.

Diesel exhaust is the #1 cancer-causing air pollutant and exposure can result in lung function damage in children that lasts a lifetime.

Right now, the port is using 31 acres of extra storage at the naval base to help the Port of LA during the pandemic.

This FEIR fails to accurately examine the negative impacts of this project. I’m asking that you do not certify the FEIR and deny the Special Use Permit.Oxnard deserves clean air and environmental justice! Sincerely,
Donna Almaguer

Most importantly this area is adjacent to an important marine mammal and threatened bird species sanctuary. The air and light pollution that would be created by this would be detrimental to the birds population and reduce their breeding and hunting grounds. This is not the place to store a bunch of cars.

I am writing to urge you to accept the Final EIR (FEIR) and vote YES on the 34-Acre GLOVIS Port Expansion. As Commissioners, it is your job to conduct fair hearings and you have.

It has been submitted to the record to the Port of Hueneme and We want these long-term good paying jobs in our community.

Sincerely,
Patrick “Rick” Kehoe

Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners,
I am writing to urge you to reject the Final EIR (FEIR) and vote NO on the 34-Acre GLOVIS Port Expansion. As Commissioners, it is your job to conduct fair hearings that work to preserve the environment and health of Oxnard residents and avoid using false or inaccurate information when making important decisions for our city.The FEIR fails to include an accurate project description, does not consider impacts to air quality and pollution from diesel trucks, and avoids consideration of alternatives to alleviate the pollution burden on South Oxnard neighborhoods.

This project will bring more diesel trucks on Hueneme Road, polluting our air with more cancer causing diesel exhaust.

Diesel exhaust is the #1 cancer-causing air pollutant and exposure can result in lung function damage in children that lasts a lifetime.

Right now, the port is using 31 acres of extra storage at the naval base to help the Port of LA during the pandemic.

This FEIR fails to accurately examine the negative impacts of this project. I’m asking that you do not certify the FEIR and deny the Special Use Permit.Oxnard deserves clean air and environmental justice! Sincerely,
Amanda

Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners,
As a pastor, local resident, and someone working toward racial justice, I urge you to reject the Final EIR (FEIR) and vote NO on the 34-Acre GLOVIS Port Expansion. The FEIR fails to include an accurate project description, does not consider impacts to air quality and pollution from diesel trucks, and avoids consideration of alternatives to alleviate the pollution burden on South Oxnard neighborhoods.

This project is not truly temporary, since the FEIR fails to say what the long term plans are for Port Storage after the 3-5 years. It has been submitted to the record that the Port of Hueneme and GLOVIS already have plans, started contracts, and applied for grants to start a much bigger 250 acre expansion project, but it was left out of the FEIR. There cannot be a vote on this project without a study on long-term plans for Port storage.

This FEIR fails to accurately examine the negative impacts of this project. I’m asking that you do not certify the FEIR and deny the Special Use Permit.Oxnard deserves clean air and environmental justice! Sincerely,
Karen Rice

Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners, I am writing to urge you to reject the Final EIR (FEIR) and vote NO on the 34- Acre GLOVIS Port Expansion. As Commissioners, it is your job to conduct fair hearings that work to preserve the environment and health of Oxnard residents and avoid using false or inaccurate information when making important decisions for our city.The FEIR fails to include an accurate project description, does not consider impacts to air quality and pollution from diesel trucks, and avoids consideration of alternatives to alleviate the pollution burden on South Oxnard neighborhoods. It is not accurate to describe this project as temporary when the FEIR fails to say what the long term plans are for Port Storage after the 3-5 years. It has been submitted to the record that the Port of Hueneme and GLOVIS already have plans, started contracts, and applied for grants to start a much bigger 250 acre expansion project, over seven times as big as this one farther down Hueneme Road, but it was left out of the FEIR. There cannot be a vote on this project without a study on long-term plans for Port storage. The FEIR states the project will not be expanding more shipments into the port, but it also says the project is going to allow more shipments from GLOVIS to create more jobs at the port. Both cannot be true. This project will only bring 14 jobs, all of which are contracted by GLOVIS that pay around minimum wage and are non-union. We want long-term high-paying union jobs in our community. The Port has said cars stored at the34-acre site will be picked up by diesel trucks to transport them to dealerships around the country but the FEIR does not consider impacts to air quality from diesel trucks. This project will bring more diesel trucks on Hueneme Road, polluting our air with more cancer causing diesel exhaust. Diesel exhaust is the #1 cancer-causing air pollutant and exposure can result in lung function damage in children that lasts a lifetime.

There cannot be a vote on this project without a study on long-term plans for Port storage.

The Port has said cars stored at the the34-acre site will be picked up by diesel trucks to transport them to dealerships around the country but the FEIR does not consider impacts to air quality from diesel trucks. This project will bring more diesel trucks onto Hueneme Road, polluting our air with more cancer-causing diesel exhaust. Diesel exhaust is the #1 cancer-causing air pollutant and exposure can result in lung function damage in children that lasts a lifetime.

Right now, the port is using 31 acres of extra storage at the naval base to help the Port of LA during the pandemic.

This FEIR fails to accurately examine the negative impacts of this project. I’m asking that you do not certify the FEIR and deny the Special Use Permit. Oxnard deserves clean air and environmental justice! Sincerely,
Jennifer Martinez

Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners,
I am writing to urge you to reject the Final EIR (FEIR) and vote NO on the 34-Acre GLOVIS Port Expansion. As Commissioners, it is your job to conduct fair hearings that work to preserve the environment and health of Oxnard residents and avoid using false or inaccurate information when making important decisions for our city.

It is beyond unethical to bill this as a "temporary outdoor vehicle storage project", particularly when the State, the CPUC and CARB are working on an electric truck transfer stste for the port region which is designed to protect the wild life, insect and lower species which this project will exterminate. Extinction is permanent, not temporary. Said project as described will also likely destroy the local air quality and cause rapid changes in the marshland/brackish water filtration sysyem, dry the underlying and border soils, and never be removed.

The same project was proposed on County land approximately 4 years ago. That proposal fail because the serious environmental consequences far outweigh any benefit to the City. Even the port environmental services officers attended commission meetings to argue against the idea.

The FEIR fails to include an accurate project description, does not consider impacts to air quality and pollution from diesel trucks, and avoids consideration of alternatives to alleviate the pollution burden on South Oxnard neighborhoods.

This project will bring more diesel trucks on Hueneme Road, polluting our air with more cancer causing diesel exhaust.

Diesel exhaust is the #1 cancer-causing air pollutant and exposure can result in lung function damage in children that lasts a lifetime.

Right now, the port is using 31 acres of extra storage at the naval base to help the Port of LA during the pandemic.

Because the FEIR fails to accurately examine the negative impacts of this project I’m write, demanding that you do not certify the FEIR and deny the Special Use Permit.

Oxnard deserves clean air and environmental justice!

Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners,
This is written to urge you to reject the Final EIR (FEIR) and vote NO on the 34-Acre GLOVIS Port Expansion. As Commissioners, it is your job to conduct fair hearings that work to preserve the environment and health of Oxnard residents and avoid using false or inaccurate information when making important decisions for our city.The FEIR inaccurately describes the CEQA project used as the basis for the FEIR. CEQA requires an accurate project description.

Impacts to air quality and sub-PM10 pollution from diesel transport trucks were not properly evaluated. Accumulation of multi-year deposition of the emitted particulates on greenscape and hardscape surfaces of neighboring properties and in nearby coastal sensitive wildlife areas is neglected. Both direct inhalation and depositional impacts of emissions requires adequate evaluation in human health and eco-risk still assessments as part of the FEIR. The surface water impacts of the project are not adequately evaluated. Capture and recycle scarce water resources that the project requires is not adequately addressed. The FEIR does not consider alternatives to mitigate the project's pollution burden on South Oxnard neighborhoods.

It is not accurate to describe this project as temporary when the FEIR fails to address long term plans are for Port Storage after the 3-5 years that are known to be under consideration. It has been submitted to the record that the Port of Hueneme and GLOVIS already have plans, started contracts, and applied for grants to construct a much bigger 250 acre expansion project, over seven times as big as this one farther down Hueneme Road. The FEIR does not honestly address this nor the additional resources that will ultimately be required. Approval of this project without inclusion of the existing long-term plans for Port storage that appear to be concealed from consideration is inappropriate under CEQA..

The FEIR states the project will not be expanding more shipments into the port, but it also says the project is going to allow more shipments from GLOVIS to create more jobs at the port. Both cannot be simultaneously true. It appears that this project will only bring 14 jobs, all of which are contracted by GLOVIS that pay around minimum wage and are nonunion. This is quite insubstantial and is not a satisfactory basis for approval of the FEIR.

Right now, the port is using 31 acres of extra storage at the naval base to help the Port of LA during the pandemic. In order to satisfy CEQA requirements, project alternatives that need serious consideration in a proper FEIR should include options like using existing space in the navy base and the use of zero emission trucks to mitigate the diesel exhaust impacts to human health and the environment. If the Port of Los Angeles can make clean air commitments to its harbor area why can't this Port do the same?
This FEIR fails to adequately examine the negative impacts of this project. I’m asking that you do not certify this FEIR and deny the Special Use Permit until all of the impacts are considered and properly addressed. Residents of Oxnard deserve clean air
Sincerely,

Dear Oxnard Planning Commissioners,
I am writing to urge you to reject the Final EIR (FEIR) and vote NO on the 34-Acre GLOVIS Port Expansion. As Commissioners, it is your job to conduct fair hearings that work to preserve the environment and health of Oxnard residents and avoid using false or inaccurate information when making important decisions for our city.The FEIR fails to include an accurate project description, does not consider impacts to air quality and pollution from diesel trucks, and avoids consideration of alternatives to alleviate the pollution burden on South Oxnard neighborhoods.

This project will bring more diesel trucks on Hueneme Road, polluting our air with more cancer causing diesel exhaust.

Diesel exhaust is the #1 cancer-causing air pollutant and exposure can result in lung function damage in children that lasts a lifetime.

Right now, the port is using 31 acres of extra storage at the naval base to help the Port of LA during the pandemic.

This FEIR fails to accurately examine the negative impacts of this project. I’m asking that you do not certify the FEIR and deny the Special Use Permit.Oxnard deserves clean air and environmental justice! Sincerely,
Ms. Ortega

Thank you for sending this notice. I am not sure I can make it as I mostly do not drive at night now due to cataracts on both eyes. I can see but don't feel as comfortable with the night driving so try to avoid. We'll see. Keep me in the loop anyway please. Wish we could have some of these meetings with a daytime part also for us seniors.

The Port of Hueneme is an often-forgotten contributor to Ventura County’s tax revenue.

Last year, the Port of Hueneme contributed $173.2 million to local cities and the state of California.

The Port of Hueneme is the fourth largest in California and the only deep-water port between Los Angeles and San Francisco. It is the “greenest” port in the United States. And during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Port of Hueneme had a unique market position as the uncongested port on the West Coast.

The Ventura County Taxpayers Association applauds the Port because it is completely self-supporting. It uses no tax dollars to maintain its operations.

The Port specializes in the niche markets of fresh fruit, project cargo, automotive and liquid bulk cargoes. Over 46% of the Port’s annual cargo value comes from the automotive trade.

Because of the high reliance on the auto trade, the
Port of Hueneme’s Emissions Reduction and Job
Creation Project should appeal to Ventura County
residents.

for light industry as a temporary outdoor overflow
parking lot. The goal is to reduce and consolidate
reliance on off-port storage locations for automobiles
shipped into the port. The proposed project will take
three to five years to complete.

To achieve their goal, the Port of Hueneme needs a
Special Use Permit from the City of Oxnard. The Oxnard Planning Commission will hold a meeting on October 20, 2022, to discuss the matter.

The project will benefit Ventura County in a variety of ways. Project 34, as the Port refers to it, will create port-related new jobs for the life of the project. Also, it will add $2.2 million in local salaries per year.

The Port ensured the project was consistent
with the city’s General Plan. The project will
improve the vacant lots proposed for
temporary parking in keeping with the local
environment. And once the project is over,
the site will be a gateway park for the City of
Port Hueneme.

We see no reason the City of Oxnard should
deny a Special Use Permit to the Port of
Hueneme. To do so would harm the local
economy and degrade the local
environment.
