Wire Fraud Alert Page 9
Original Effective Date: 5/11/2017

WIRE FRAUD ALERT
This Notice is not intended to provide legal or professional advice.

If you have any questions, please consult with a lawyer.

All parties to a real estate transaction are targets for wire fraud and many have lost hundreds of thousands of dollars because they simply relied on the wire instructions received via email, without further verification. If funds are to be wired in conjunction with this real estate transaction, we strongly recommend verbal verification of wire instructions through a known, trusted phone number prior to sending funds.

In addition, the following non-exclusive self-protection strategies are recommended to minimize exposure to possible wire fraud.
 NEVER RELY on emails purporting to change wire instructions. Parties to a transaction rarely change wire instructions in the course of a transaction.
 ALWAYS VERIFY wire instructions, specifically the ABA routing number and account number, by calling the party who sent the instructions to you. DO NOT use the phone number provided in the email containing the instructions, use phone numbers you have called before or can otherwise verify. Obtain the number of relevant parties to the transaction as soon as an escrow account is opened. DO NOT send an email to verify as the email address may be incorrect or the email may be intercepted by the fraudster.  USE COMPLEX EMAIL PASSWORDS that employ a combination of mixed case, numbers, and symbols. Make your passwords greater than eight (8) characters. Also, change your password often and do NOT reuse the same password for other online accounts.
 USE MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION for email accounts. Your email provider or IT staff may have specific instructions on how to implement this feature.

DISCUSSION

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On January 4, 2011, the City Council approved an agreement with AECOM Engineering Services to prepare a Project Study Report Equivalent (PSRE) and develop conceptual engineering plans for the Santa Ana Boulevard Grade Separation (SAGS) Project. At the time, staff secured $1,500,000 in funding from the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) to complete the PSRE and conceptual engineering phase. Caltrans requires a PSRE for all transportation projects within local agency jurisdiction that would like to receive state or federal and be included in the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) and/or Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP).

The proposed SAGS project (Exhibit 1) is adjacent to the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) and will include a new four-lane underpass to replace the existing at-grade rail crossing at the Southern California Regional Rail Authority (SCRRA) double tracks on Santa Ana Boulevard. By eliminating the at-grade crossing, the project will allow for enhanced safety by separating vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists from trains at the railroad crossing. It will reduce traffic congestion along a busy arterial, encourage a passenger rail mode shift, reduce air and noise pollution, provide City Council 22 – 2 5/5/2026

unhindered access for emergency vehicles, and provide connectivity across Santa Ana Boulevard to SARTC. The improvements will include a raised median, bike lanes, sidewalks, pedestrian and rail bridges, storm water pump station, space for a transportation opportunity zone, and a pedestrian plaza. The total cost of this project is estimated to be $126,500,000 and can only be realized with grant funding, which is typical for transportation projects of this magnitude.

In 2014, the City Council approved the PSRE and environmental report for the proposed SAGS project. This action transformed SAGS from a concept to a formally identified capital improvement project for the City and allowed staff to pursue grant funding for the project.

On July 6, 2023, California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA) awarded a $7,000,000 grant from the TIRCP program to the City to fund the design phase of the project. Due to the highly complex nature of grade separation projects, staff is unable to perform the design phase scope in-house and requires the services of a highly experienced engineering firm that has demonstrated experience on grade separation projects. Staff performed an extensive, competitive Request for Proposals procurement process and recommends awarding a design phase services contract to Mark Thomas in an amount not to exceed $6,859,918. Their proposal and subsequent interview received the highest score due to their experienced team and proven track record on other grade separations in southern California. In addition, Mark Thomas submitted a highly competitive fee substantially below the industry standard of 10% of the construction cost estimate ($12,650,000 in this case), allowing the entirety of the design phase services to be paid for by the CalSTA grant.

To date, the City has received a total of $32,000,000 to fund the project including the following grants:
• $7,000,000 grant from the State Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP)
• $25,000,000 grant from the Federal Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) program
Staff only seeks approval of design phase services and will continue to seek additional grants from both State and Federal programs to fully fund the SAGS project. Right-ofWay and construction phases of the project will not commence until the project is fully funded, likely no sooner than 2028.

TIRCP Grant
On July 6, 2023, California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA) awarded a $7,000,000 grant from the TIRCP program to the City to fund the engineering phase and the revalidation of the project’s environmental documentation. The original environmental report was approved by the City Council on December 2, 2014; however, City Council 22 – 3 5/5/2026
Santa Ana Boulevard Grade Separation Project
May 5, 2026

due to its age and subsequent changes in the project area – including new developments, implementation of the OC Streetcar, and coordination with the County of Orange –the environmental analysis is required to be updated to reflect current conditions.

The TIRCP program requires a Master Agreement (MA) to allow agencies to receive funds from the program as well as a Program Supplement Agreement (PSA) defining the specifics of each individual project. On December 17, 2024, the City Council authorized execution of Master Agreement No. 64SantaAnaMA with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). The executed MA was received from Caltrans on December 18, 2025, authorizing the City to procure a contract for the described services. Additionally, on October 17, 2025, the project was approved by the California Transportation Commission (CTC), authorizing Caltrans to draft the PSA. Staff is currently working with Caltrans to finalize the PSA. The CTC action authorizes grantees to award contracts and begin expending funds until the PSA is executed.

RAISE Grant
On June 26, 2024, the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) awarded the City $25,000,000 through the RAISE program to fund a portion of the project’s rightof-way (ROW) acquisition and construction phases. As a condition of the award, Caltrans will serve as the primary recipient of the grant and enter into a grant agreement with USDOT, while the City will execute a separate subrecipient agreement with Caltrans. The attached agreement (Exhibit 4) is the grant agreement between USDOT and Caltrans, to which the City is also a signatory as the subrecipient. Following execution of the recipient agreement and negotiation with Caltrans, the subrecipient agreement will be brought before City Council for approval.

Southern California Regional Rail Authority (SCRRA) Agreement Because the project entails major modifications to the railroad crossing and corridor, a Design Services Agreement with SCRRA is required. The agreement will provide comprehensive design support throughout the project, including participation in field reviews, detailed site inspections, and ongoing coordination during both the design and construction phases. SCRRA will review proposed improvements to ensure consistency with railroad operational requirements, safety standards, and applicable regulatory guidelines. This support will include evaluation of existing conditions, verification of design assumptions, coordination with Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), Metrolink, and review of plans, specifications, and construction activities to confirm compatibility with current and future rail operations. SCRRA will also provide technical input and recommendations to help minimize service disruptions, maintain safe rail operations, and ensure the project is delivered in accordance with established railroad criteria and best practices.

Staff recommends adding the TIRCP and RAISE grant, Drainage Area Fee, and Transit Zoning Code transportation system improvement funds to the Santa Ana Boulevard City Council 22 – 4 5/5/2026

Grade Separation Project for the Design, Right-of-Way, and Construction Phases and amending the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Capital Improvement Program to include these funds. Additionally, staff recommends approval of the agreement with SCRRA for their support of the project.

Engineering Phase Consultant Procurement
To facilitate this highly complex project, consultant support is required to provide the requisite technical expertise as well as to advise and support the complicated regulatory and grant compliance requirements of the project. To provide these services, Request for Proposals (RFP) No. 25-131A was advertised on November 14, 2025 on the City’s online bid management and publication system, PlanetBids. A summary of vendor participation and results is as follows:
2,411 Vendors notified
117 Santa Ana vendors notified
117 Vendors downloaded the bid packet
5 Bids received
0 Bids received from Santa Ana vendors
Proposals were solicited, opened on January 14, 2026, and evaluated. Five proposals were submitted by the RFP deadline and all proposals were determined to be responsive to the specifications and met the City’s requirements. Proposals were subsequently evaluated by a selection committee comprised of City staff and OCTA staff. Based on criteria outlined in the RFP, the following summarizes the top responding firms:

Firm City Ranking
Mark Thomas Irvine, CA 1
RailPros, Inc. Irvine, CA 2
Kimley Horn Orange, CA 3
Moffatt & Nichol Costa Mesa, CA 4
T.Y. Lin International Irvine, CA 5
Staff recommends awarding an agreement to the highest-ranked firm, Mark Thomas.

Mark Thomas has had previous contracts with the City for the Grant Writing for this project and as the engineering consultant for the Standard Avenue Protected Bike Lane Project as well as serving as an on-call engineering consultant for the City. Their proposal and subsequent interview received the highest score due to their consistent team dynamic on many other grade separations as well as their innovative connectivity of pedestrians and bikes through the grade separation and connections to the north.

The RFP included Design, ROW, and Construction Support services. The fee for each of these services was negotiated, but the agreement proposes only to award Design Engineering services at this time. Future amendments for the ROW Engineering and City Council 22 – 5 5/5/2026
Santa Ana Boulevard Grade Separation Project
May 5, 2026

Construction Support services will be recommended for City Council approval as future grant funding for the project materializes.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with the recommended action. As part of this proposed agreement, the Consultant will be preparing a revalidated environmental report for future consideration by City Council.

FISCAL IMPACT
With the approval of the requested appropriation adjustments, the funds will be budgeted and available per the accounts listed in the table below. Any remaining balances not expended at the end of the fiscal year will be presented to City Council for approval of carryovers into Fiscal Year 2026-2027.

Approval of the requested appropriation adjustments will recognize $7,000,000 in the Select Street Construction, State Grant-Direct revenue account (No. 05917002-52025) and appropriate for spending in the Select Street Construction, Improvements Other Than Building expenditure account (No. 05917660-66220).

A portion of the Transit Zoning Code Transportation System Improvements accumulated fund balance will be appropriated for spending in the Transit Zoning Code, Improvements Other Than Building expenditure account (No. 04817660-66220). The spendable portion of the fund balance is estimated to be $134,176 as of June 30, 2026, which is sufficient to allow for the recommended appropriation of $134,176.

A portion of the Drainage Area Fee IV accumulated fund balance will be appropriated for spending in the Public Works Storm Drain, Improvements Other Than Building expenditure account (No. 22417660-66220). The spendable portion of the fund balance is estimated to be $218,222 as of June 30, 2026, which is sufficient to allow for the recommended appropriation of $90,742.

EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 37 5/5/2026

6. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION (ED)
A Project Study Report Equivalent (PSRE) was completed and the project was cleared environmentally in 2014 (Appendix __). Coordination with the appropriate federal agencies is required to determine if an Environmental Revalidation or other appropriate level of clearance is necessary based on the passage of time and changed conditions to the project site.

The project funding plan includes Federal, State, and Local funds; therefore, preparation of documents and studies for obtaining compliance with NEPA are required. As all the project funding sources have not been finalized and additional grants are required, the Consultant shall assume NEPA compliance with environmental requirements for both Federal Rail Administration and Federal Highway Administration.

Since the Project is expected to eliminate an existing grade crossing, it is anticipated that the Project shall be statutorily exempt from compliance with CEQA. However, in order to ensure the City is minimizing potential effects on environmental resources, businesses and residents in the area, the Project shall require all technical studies that are typically performed as part of the environmental documentation process.

The Consultant shall prepare a thorough project description defining the limits of projectrelated activities, which shall be used as the basis for environmental technical studies conducted for this project. Pursuant to section 21080.13 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and CEQA Guidelines Section 15282(g), the state legislature has determined that railroad grade separations shall be statutorily exempt from CEQA documentation and public disclosure requirements. Accordingly, a more formal CEQA environmental document is not required for this project. However, in certain instances and at the discretion of the sponsoring agency, it is sometimes prudent to undertake certain limited environmental studies in order to better understand and manage the consequences of a particular proposed railroad grade separation. Such is the case for the Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation, for which the City and Caltrans has determined that certain selected studies should be undertaken. This scope of work responds to that decision.

As part of the scope of services, the Consultant shall prepare a Notice of Exemption (NOE) and provide to the City for approval and submittal to the State Clearinghouse. In addition, once biological, cultural, noise, and community impact reports have been completed and approved by the City, the Consultant shall prepare a letter report summarizing the findings of these reports, as well as general information related to public outreach that was conducted in support of the project.

Consultant shall develop Project Vicinity and Project Location Maps, as well as a set of maps that clearly shows the location and features of the alternative under consideration. Additionally, base mapping of the environmental components/data. These components/data include Section hazardous materials sites, and land uses and right-of-way sites. Data from publicly available sources shall be used and adjusted, where appropriate, based on field surveys and observations conducted by the Consultant.

Environmental Clearance, Technical studies and other information may be required to be prepared include, but not limited to the following: Natural Environment Studies, Biological EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 38 5/5/2026
Assessments, Initial Site Assessment, Aerial Deposited Lead Report, Asbestos Survey Report, Visual Impact Study, Right-of-Way Impact Study, Relocation Impact Study, Community Impact Assessment, Noise and Vibration Analysis and Technical Study, Cultural Resources Study, Area of Potential Effects (APE) Map.

Traffic/Circulation Study Update
In addition to the studies identified above, a focused traffic study is required that documents the methodology and results of an analysis performed to evaluate traffic operations for the proposed grade separation of the existing Santa Ana Boulevard/Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) Metrolink at-grade crossing in the City of Santa Ana, Orange County, California. The previous Traffic/Circulation Study, conducted in May 2012, evaluated a six-lane Santa Ana Boulevard (Major Arterial). However, the City of Santa Ana adopted the General Plan Mobility Element Update in April 2022. As part of that update, Santa Ana Boulevard between Santiago Street and the Interstate 5 (I-5) southbound off-ramp is proposed to be a four lane Primary Arterial per the Master Plan of Streets and Highways. The traffic study will therefore need to be updated to reflect a four-lane section of Santa Ana Boulevard. The project description is as follows:
 East leg of Santiago Street/Santa Ana Boulevard to provide one left-turn, two throughs, and one right-turn lane
 Termination of Logan Street north of Santa Ana Boulevard via construction of cul-de-sac  Intersection of Fuller Street/Santa Ana Boulevard:
o One NB shared left/through/right
o One SB shared left/through/right
o One EB left-turn lane, one EB through lane, and one EB shared through/right-turn lane
o One WB left-turn lane, one WB through lane, and one WB shared through/rightturn lane  West leg of I-5 SB off-ramp/Santa Ana Boulevard to provide dual left-turns and two through lanes
 Focused Traffic Study Scenarios

On April 4, 2022, the federal government stopped using the DUNS Number to uniquely identify entities.

Now, entities doing business with the federal government use the Unique Entity ID created in SAM.gov.

They no longer have to go to a third-party website to obtain their identifier. This transition allows the government to streamline the entity identification and validation process, making it easier and less burdensome for entities to do business with the federal government.

This RFP includes federal funding, and as such, the proposer must provide verification of their SAM.gov UEI and registration status. Please attach your entity’s registration from SAM.gov, including UEI and active registration status.

CERTIFIED MAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
Distribution is indicated in Section 10 herein
Date: July 21, 2014
Subject: City of Santa Ana, California
Southern California Regional Rail Authority (Metrolink) – Orange Subdivision Quiet Zone

NOTICE OF ESTABLISHMENT (NOE) OF NEW QUIET ZONE
Notice is hereby provided that the City of Santa Ana, California, (City) will establish a New 24-hour Quiet Zone in accordance with the regulatory provisions contained in Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 222 and 229 Use of Locomotive Horns at Highway-Rail Grade Crossings; Final Rule (Final Rule), effective August 27, 2014. The routine sounding of train horns at crossings will be restricted within the quiet zone.

The following sections describe contents required to be included in the Notice of Quiet Zone Establishment under 49 CFR §222.43(d).

SECTION 1 – AFFECTED HIGHWAY-RAIL CROSSINGS
Two (2) existing public highway-rail at-grade crossings are located within the proposed quiet zone as indicated in Table 1. All crossings are located within the City of Santa Ana in Orange County, CA. All affected streets are under the jurisdiction of the City of Santa Ana. There are no existing private highway-rail at-grade crossings and no pedestrian-exclusive rail at-grade crossings located within the proposed quiet zone.

SANTA ANA CITY COUNCIL
The following railroads currently operate over some or all of the crossings within the proposed quiet zone:
 Southern California Regional Rail Authority (SCRRA)
 National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak)
 BNSF Railway (BNSF)
 Union Pacific Railway (UP)
SECTION 2 – REGULATORY PROVISION FOR ESTABLISHMENT
The quiet zone is proposed to be established based upon the regulatory provision described under 49 CFR §222.39(b). The implementation of Supplemental Safety Measures (SSMs) and Alternative Safety Measures (ASMs) at selected crossings reduces the Quiet Zone Risk Index to a level below the Risk Index with Horns.

The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) notification of approval letter is attached herein as Exhibit A.

In the Application to the FRA for approval of the ASM treatment at Fourth Street, an effectiveness rate of 0.79 was assumed based on the railroad crossing improvements implemented. Previously, the commercial building on the south side of Fourth Street (east of the railroad tracks) in the southeastern quadrant of the railroad crossing had a private driveway. This access was secured by a locked gate as shown in the image taken from internet mapping (see Figure 1). Based on the previous driveway location, the FRA determined the effectiveness rate in Exhibit A to be a lower at 0.667. However, the image in Figure 1 is outdated because there is no longer a private driveway at that location. The property owner removed the private driveway and gate at this location and replaced both with fencing, sidewalk and curb as shown in the Figures 2 and 3.

Regardless of the existence of the driveway on the south side of Fourth Street, the at-grade railroad crossings qualify for a quiet zone:
 either by the originally proposed effectiveness rate, or  FRA’s lower effectiveness rate value.

The more conservative FRA effectiveness rate still qualifies this location for a quiet zone and this is acceptable to the City. As part of this NOE letter, the City is providing information regarding the driveway’s status simply as an update and is moving forward based on the FRA’s effectiveness rate value provided.

The recommended improvements are addressed and shown in detail on the CPUC General Order 88B Approval documents (attached herein as Exhibit B).

Subsequent to the submission of the General Order 88B documents in Exhibit B, some changes or variations in the design and construction of the grade crossing safety improvements may have been implemented. The implemented improvements are listed in the CPUC Form G (see Exhibit C) and shown in the As-Built Drawings (see Exhibit D).

SECTION 4 – TIME RESTRICTION
Effective August 27, 2014 the routine sounding of horns will be restricted twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week.

Re: THR-000959 (U.S. DOT National Highway-Rail Grade Crossing Inventory Numbers 026702V and 026703C)
Dear Ms. Suter:

The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) received the quiet zone application you submitted on behalf of the City of Santa Ana (City), California, per Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section 222.39(b), Public authority application to FRA. FRA approves the application submitted by the City.

FRA finds that the implementation of the supplementary safety measure (SSM) and alternative safety measure (ASM) contained in this application will result in a Quiet Zone Risk Index of 38,502, which is below the Risk Index With Horns (the risk that would be present if the horns were still sounding) of79,385.

The City may submit its Notice of Quiet Zone Establishment in accordance with 49 CFR § 222.43, What notices and other information are required to create or continue a quiet zone? after successful installation of the proposed SSM and ASM and compliance with all applicable quiet zone requirements contained in 49 CFR § 222.35, What are the minimum requirements for quiet zones?

Grade Crossing Application Summary for THR-000959
(For crossings that are considered for the calculation of the Quiet Zone Risk Index) All Crossings:

FRA encourages the City to provide additional traffic control devices (such as signage, pavement markings, etc.) and vegetation control as needed to encourage proper traffic movements for vehicles and/or pedestrians at or across the tracks.

NOTE: The City has provided the Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) counts for 2009 and 2011, but requested that FRA consider approval of this application with the 2009 counts.

The City believes that the lower 20 11 AADT reflected a temporary economic downturn in the area of the proposed quiet zone, but that the 2009 AADT provided a more accurate traffic count, and accounted for traffic once the area's economic "climate" returned to a more stable I status. FRA notes that using the City's 2009 AADT data provides a higher risk index related to the application, and will allow a one-time allowance for the use of this data, without establishing precedent for any future applications.

Crossing Number 026702V (Santa Ana Boulevard)
The City proposes a 100-foot non-traversable median curb on the north and south ofthe crossing. The City views this crossing treatment as an SSM with an effectiveness rate of

0.80, which FRA finds consistent with the information provided.

Crossing Number 026703C (4th Street)
The City proposes a 100-foot non-traversable median curb east of the crossing, and entrance and exit gates with vehicle presence detection west of the crossing. The City views this crossing treatment as an ASM with an effectiveness rate of0.79. FRA has determined that an effectiveness rate of 0.667 is more appropriate, given the existence of a commercial driveway in the southeast quadrant of the crossing that vehicles may use to access the crossing. The City is encouraged to use signage and/or engineering design features (e.g., "porkchop," ctirbing, etc.) as needed at or near the driveway to assist motorists with the proper inbound and outbound movements near the crossing.

PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 3
1 INTRODUCTION
The City of Santa Ana (City) and Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), in cooperation with Caltrans and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), propose to grade separate the current at-grade crossing of Santa Ana Boulevard with the Southern California Regional Rail Authority (SCRRA) double tracks. The project objective is to eliminate the at-grade crossing of the railroad traffic and the vehicular traffic; improve safety at the crossing for pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists; provide unimpeded access for emergency responders; and, enhance traffic operations and reduce existing traffic congestion and delay.

Both an overhead alternative and an underpass alternative were considered. The overhead alternative was deemed non-viable because of concerns and opposition expressed by members of an adjacent neighborhood. A No-Build Alternative was not considered, with the exception of within the traffic studies discussed later in this report, as it does not meet the project objective.

The preferred alternative will construct a railroad underpass structure to carry SCRRA trains over Santa Ana Boulevard, depressing the current grade of the roadway and maintaining the railroad profile. Project cost for the preferred alternative has been estimated to be approximately $73.3 million, which includes $45 million for construction, $15.6 million for right-of-way acquisition, and $12.7 million for administration support. Tentatively, the project will be funded by a combination of federal, state, and local funds.
2 RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the project be approved using the Preferred Alternative (underpass structure) and that the project proceed to the design phase. Local agency concurrence for the project has been obtained as the local agency (City of Santa Ana) is the lead agency. 3 BACKGROUND

3.1 Project History
This highway-rail at-grade crossing is located along the Los Angeles to San Diego (LOSSAN) Corridor, which is the primary north/south rail corridor connecting the cities of Los Angeles and San Diego, as well as cities in between including some within Orange County. The LOSSAN Corridor is owned by OCTA, with Metrolink commuter rail service maintained and operated by the SCRRA. The Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railway, the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR), and Amtrak all have been granted user rights by OCTA.

Because it is the primary north/south rail corridor, the LOSSAN Corridor is becoming increasingly burdened due to the demand of commuter rail and freight rail, operations.

OCTA recently completed construction of a project for the purpose of increasing the capacity of the corridor, the Metrolink Service Expansion Project (MSEP). The MSEP will increase capacity to accommodate OCTA’s planned expansion of commuter rail operations, targeting a 30 minute headway resulting in rail service at each station within the corridor every 30 minutes for commuter rail service within the next couple of years. In addition, due to the increase in train movements resulting from the expansion of the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, freight service has also increased. Finally, increased development, and accompanying traffic has increased delay at the existing highway-rail crossing.

OCTA has embarked on an ambitious program, which began in 2009 to grade separate 13 at-grade highway-rail crossings within Orange County. The first group of those, three are EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 143 5/5/2026
Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation
PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 4
currently under construction and four others are scheduled to go to construction by 2014.

This project is part of the next group of projects to advance.

The City nominated this project with the California Public Utilities Commission (PUC) for the 2014-2015 Grade Separation Priority List and received a ranking of 26.

3.2 Community Interaction
A Project Development Team (PDT) was identified to foster collaborative communications among the stakeholders which includes representatives from OCTA, Caltrans, and City.

The representatives have actively participated in the engineering and environmental studies leading up to the development of this Project Report Equivalent A public informational meeting was held on December 18, 2013, in the City of Santa Ana.

The preferred alternative and technical studies were presented to approximately 33 attendees representing the local community. Representatives from OCTA, Caltrans, City of Santa Ana, AECOM, and ICF International were present to address questions from the general public. In general, the public expressed support for the project.

3.3 Existing Facility
Santa Ana Boulevard is listed in the City’s General Plan as a 6-Lane Primary Arterial, which is defined as a roadway with 100 feet of right-of-way width and includes 3 traffic lanes for a total of 35 feet of traveled way in each direction, a 14-foot median, and 8-foot parkways.

Currently, Santa Ana Boulevard is a six-lane street with left turn pockets located in each direction at the intersections with Santiago Street and the I-5 southbound on and off ramps.

The right of way along Santa Ana Boulevard is 104 feet in width.

The railroad right-of-way is owned by OCTA and the tracks are maintained by SCRRA. In addition, Amtrack commuter trains as well as freight rail service provided by BNSF have licenses with OCTA for use of the tracks.

The land use surrounding the project site varies and includes industrial uses in the northerly quadrant; various industrial uses, including parts of the Orange County maintenance yard and a junkyard in the easterly quadrant; the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) in the southerly quadrant; and, single-family dwellings in the westerly quadrant. 4 PURPOSE AND NEED

4.1 Need
Increased traffic on Santa Ana Boulevard and increased train movements on the LOSSAN line have resulted in the increase of delays at the existing highway-rail crossing of Santa Ana Boulevard and the SCRRA double-track. These delays have not only affected the traveling public, but also have impacted access by emergency vehicles. This is compounded by the fact that there is currently only one other grade separation located at 1st Street, within the city limits, increasing the importance to the City’s traffic circulation as the project will provide another unimpeded access across the railroad.

Also, safety at the crossing is a major concern. Since 1977, there have been four separate accidents at this crossing, averaging about one every eight years. These four accidents are classified as follows: one involved an Atchison Topeka Santa Fe (ATSF) train striking a vehicle stopped on the tracks; two others involved a motorist driving around the gates and being struck by an ATSF train; and one involved an AMTRAK train hitting a pedestrian walking on the tracks. Please see Section 4.3.1, Accident Analysis-Vehicle/Train, of this EXHIBIT 2

report, and Attachment A for copies of the Highway-Rail Crossing Accident/Incident Reports for additional details.

4.2 Purpose
The primary project objective is to minimize potential conflicts between trains, vehicles, and pedestrians. The project also aims to alleviate traffic congestion and delayb and provide better connectivity by constructing a grade separation structure with the railroad and retiring the existing at-grade crossing. The proposed project is deemed required and necessary, and is supported by various public agencies.

4.3 Deficiencies
Safety at the crossing is a major concern to OCTA and the City. Accident/Incident Reports were obtained from the CPUC website. These reports, included as Attachment A, range from December 1977 to January 2000, and document four accident/incidents, described in Table 1.

This table shows there was a fatality, as one person was killed while walking on the tracks.

4.4 Regional and System Planning
The project has been programmed in the Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) as Federal Project Number ORA082610, and in the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) as project number 2TR0704.

4.5 Traffic
A Traffic Study was prepared and received technical approval from Caltrans on August 28, 2012. The study evaluated rail-highway grade crossing delay in the existing condition (2011), opening year (2016) and future year (2035). In addition, the study focused on locations that could be directly affected by the proposed grade separation project. Level of service (LOS) was conducted at these intersections in the existing condition (2011), opening year (2016) and future year (2035) with and without the project. Detailed methodologies and analysis results can be referenced in the traffic study.

One of the project's needs is to eliminate delays at the current at-grade crossing. Since the project eliminates the at-grade crossing, this analysis is not performed under "with project" conditions. The delays are summarized in Table 2.

Table 3 summarizes the intersection LOS with and without the project in the existing condition (2011), project opening (2016) and future condition (2035). Existing traffic volumes were collected at the study intersections. Opening year volume is composed of existing count data, background growth, and the traffic that is anticipated to occur based on known development projects within the vicinity of the study area. The future year condition accounts for major plans within the study area, including the Santa Ana Fixed Guideway (Streetcar), Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) Expansion, and Transit Zoning Code Environmental Impact Report.

As shown in Table 3, all study area intersections are forecast to operate at acceptable LOS with the project except for that of Fuller Street/Santa Ana Boulevard. It should be noted that this location experiences significant delays on the minor street approach (Fuller Street) due to the high volume on Santa Ana Boulevard that is not required to stop. Utilizing the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) Signal Warrant 3 (Peak Hour Warrant), this location does not warrant a signal under existing, project opening, and future conditions. In addition, this location will operate at LOS F without the project; as such, the additional delay (less than the 1% threshold of significance) with the project would not constitute a significant impact.

At all other locations, the project will result in minimal changes to the intersection capacity utilization (ICU) values (none greater than the 0.010 ICU threshold) or the average delays (less than 1%) per vehicle. Overall, the project and associated improvements can be implemented without significantly impacting any of the study area intersections or roadway segments. The proposed project will provide a net benefit by reducing the congestion along Santa Ana Boulevard caused by daily train crossings by removing the existing at-grade conflict between vehicular traffic and rail traffic.

5 ALTERNATIVES
The Project Development Team (PDT) explored various alternatives to address the need and purpose of this project, taking into account the constraints presented by the project area and the City’s desired traffic operations. Both an overhead alternative and an underpass alternative were discussed among the PDT members. However, the overcrossing alternative was deemed nonviable because of concerns and opposition expressed by members of an adjacent neighborhood.

discussed later in this report, as it does not meet the project objective. With this, the PDT members elected to study the underpass alternative as the single-build alternative and it was selected as the locally recommended alternative. Refer to Attachment B for the proposed layout, typical section and profile of the locally recommended alternative.

5.1 Alternative Description

5.1.1 Design Parameters
The governing standards for the horizontal and vertical roadway alignment alignments are Caltrans and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) standards and practices. Caltrans Highway Design Manual (HDM) was used to determine the minimum inside radius for the horizontal curves and AASHTO's Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets was used for to determine minimum curve length for crest and sag vertical curves.

Selected specific design parameters include the following:
x Design Speed: 45 mph
x Vertical Clearance: 16'-6"
x Cross-Section: 100' right-of-way width (minimum)

5.1.2 Horizontal Layout
The horizontal alignment of this alternative is based on the standards listed above. The alignment features a slight shift of the roadway centerline to the south to accommodate a utility corridor and a landscaped-retaining-slope area along the northerly right-of-way. The utility corridor will allow the relocation of the water and sewer line and preserves an existing underground electric transmission line. The landscaped-retaining-slope area would reduce the impact of the proposed retaining wall and provide an additional buffer adjacent to the residential properties. Shifting the alignment southward also eliminates the need to acquire right-of-way from residential properties to the north, given there is space available to the south at the City owned SARTC parking area.

5.1.3 Profile
This alternative will depress the roadway profile to allow for an underpass bridge that carries the railroad tracks over Santa Ana Boulevard. The proposed profile will join the existing grade at the Santiago Street intersection to the west and the I-5 southbound off-ramp to the east. The new Santa Ana Boulevard profile is designed to provide a minimum of 16.5 feet clearance to the soffit of the underpass structure utilizing 6% grades for the approaches.

5.1.4 Cross-Section
Santa Ana Boulevard is designed as a six-lane primary arterial with three traffic lanes and a total of 35 feet of traveled way in each direction, plus a 15-foot median. The northerly parkway will be widened to accommodate the utility corridor and the landscape-retainingslope area. The southerly parkway will remain at the standard width of eight feet.

Landscaping will not be proposed within the southerly parkway. However, a 50-foot landscaped embankment will be incorporated to the south to eliminate the need for a retaining structure against the SARTC. The 50-foot buffer will also accommodate future developments including a street car corridor and the SARTC Master Plan.

5.1.5 Adjacent Streets
Access from Logan Street to Santa Ana Boulevard will be terminated with a cul-de-sac on Logan Street. The intersection of Fuller Street and Santa Ana Boulevard will be reconfigured EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 148 5/5/2026
Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation
PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 9
on the south side of Santa Ana Boulevard into a T-intersection that will allow full access to Santa Ana Boulevard from the south. The north leg will be terminated with a cul-de-sac and connectivity with Santa Ana Boulevard will be reestablished with a new access road. Due to the proximity to the southern leg of Fuller Street, access will be limited to right-in/right-out.

5.2 Structure
The proposed underpass structure will match the current horizontal and vertical alignment of the two existing Metrolink tracks and span Santa Ana Boulevard which will be depressed under the tracks at this location. In addition, the underpass structure is also designed to meet the needs of the City's SARTC Master Plan, which entails new station areas, additional parking, and improved pedestrian and bicycle access as well as a future street car corridor, resulting in a four-span, simply-supported structure. The proposed underpass superstructure is a steel girder bridge since this is the SCRRA preferred bridge type for span length between 15 feet to 72 feet. Refer to Attachment C for the Bridge General Plans.

5.3 Pedestrian Bridge
Two pedestrian bridges are proposed to flank both sides of the proposed railroad underpass structure. The proposed pedestrian bridges will provide connectivity between the residential neighborhood west of the railroad and potential mix-use developments east of the railroad bridge at the SARTC. The exact bridge type and configuration will be determined during the next phase of the project. Refer to Attachment D for a typical section of the proposed pedestrian bridge.

5.4 Stage Construction
Stage construction is a critical component of this project as it affects right-of-way acquisition and access to the local businesses and properties. A detailed analysis and design for staging should be completed during the next phase of the project. However, several critical components have been identified and incorporated into the overall design during this phase.

The following is a summary of construction staging. Attachment E contains plans of the concept.

The first phase of construction involves constructing the shoofly and shifting Santa Ana Boulevard south of its current alignment onto a detour road. The shoofly is needed to maintain railroad operations. The shoofly is designed to maintain existing design speeds. A copy of the shoofly layout is included in Attachment F. The detour road will provide two travel lanes in each direction for the duration of the stage for approximately 12 months.

Reducing the number of travel lanes will still allow Santa Ana Boulevard to operate at LOS A.

The second phase of the construction will require complete closure of the eastbound direction on Santa Ana Boulevard, detouring eastbound traffic to Fruit utilizing the detour road. Westbound traffic will be maintained on the newly constructed roadway.

The staging concept allows the railroad to remain fully operational during construction, although minor closures will be needed to allow switching over to the shoofly. The placement of the shoofly will allow the continued use of the easterly platforms at SARTC, greatly reducing the need for temporary platforms. It is noted that on June 3, 2014, Amtrak representatives agreed to a temporary platform length of 800 feet.

5.5 Right of Way
Right-of-way needs are driven by the staging concept. Additional right-of-way is needed to construct a temporary detour road south of existing Santa Ana Boulevard and temporary EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 149 5/5/2026
Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation
PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 10
shoofly tracks east of existing railroad tracks. Nine parcels will require full acquisition, three parcels will require partial acquisition, and ten parcels will require temporary construction easements. Due the preliminary nature of this study, individual property owners were not consulted to determine the extent of the impacts to their properties. Full acquisition of a parcel is assumed where the proposed shoofly or detour road will impact an existing building, otherwise, temporary construction easements are assumed. Refer to Attachment G for a breakdown of the right-of-way requirements.

5.6 Drainage
The drainage designs for the preferred alternative of the project follows the current Orange County Hydrology Manual (1986) and City of Santa Ana engineering design standards.

Generally, 100-year and 25-year storm water discharges will be studied for sump conditions and gravity/flow-by conditions respectively.

The project site currently receives surface flows generally from northeast to southwest by means of street flow. There is an existing storm drain system consisting of a 24-inch reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) and catch basins at Santa Ana Boulevard near the existing railroad at-grade crossing that receives surface flow from the project site and offsite flows from north of Santa Ana Boulevard. The project site runoff then drains to Santa Ana Delhi Channel and eventually discharges to Upper Newport Bay and Lower Newport Bay.

In the proposed condition, a pump station and new catch basins are proposed to collect runoff in the newly created sump along Santa Ana Boulevard. The outflow from the pump station will be discharged to the existing 24-inch drainage system along Santa Ana Boulevard west of the project limit. A portion of the existing 24-inch RCP conflicting with the proposed improvements will be removed and a drainage system will be reestablished between the existing drainage system and the pump station. It is noted that the exact location and configuration of the pump station will be determined in the next phase of the project as details of the SARTC Master Plan and Street Car Corridor become available.

Tentatively, the pump station is located next to the Fuller Street cul-de-sac since this is the area least impact by future SARTC expansion.

The drainage pattern at Santiago Street near the project is not anticipated to be changed; however, additional catch basins should be considered at the northeast corner of the Santa Ana Boulevard / Santiago Street intersection to reduce surface flow traveling toward the proposed sump. The street flow along Logan Street and Lincoln Avenue north of Santa Ana Boulevard will be captured by an at grade swale before the underpass.

5.7 Utilities
Refer to Attachment H for exhibits showing existing and proposed utilities. There are numerous existing utilities within the project footprint. Based on field investigation, as-built plan research, and coordination with various utilities owners, the existing utilities are summarized below.

City of Santa Ana:
12” waterlines: A 12” waterline runs east-west along the Santa Ana Boulevard. It ties into a 16” waterline to near the intersection of the Santa Ana Boulevard and Santiago Street and tees into a 20” waterline running north-south direction along the Fuller Street to the east. A 20" waterline continues to the east under Santa Ana Boulevard until it connects to the 16" waterline along Grand Avenue.

EXHIBIT 2

PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 11
8” water lines: Two 8” waterlines are identified within the proposed project area. Both are fed from the 12" waterline along the Santa Ana Boulevard. The first waterline flows northerly along Logan Street north of the Santa Ana Boulevard, the second one runs southerly along Fuller Street from the 20" waterline in Santa Ana Boulevard until it ties into the 8" waterline on Fruit Street.
6” waterline: A 6” waterlines have been identified in the north-south direction just west of the railroad. The waterline is also connected to the waterline underneath Santa Ana Boulevard. The waterline continues to the north underneath Lincoln Avenue. 20” waterline: A 20” waterline is located under Fuller Street that extends north from Santa Ana Boulevard.

Sewer: City of Santa Ana sewers are generally running in the north-south direction and are connected to the Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) sewer main underneath Fruit Street. They are summarized as follows:

Santiago Street 8"
Logan Street 6"
Lincoln Avenue/Railroad 6"
Fuller Street 6"/8"
Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD):
18" sewer trunk main: The 18" sewer runs in the east-west direction underneath Fruit Street. The sewer line continues to the east passing under the SARTC parking area and under Santa Ana Boulevard east of Santiago Street.

Southern California Gas (SCG):

With the exception of a short segment between Santiago Street and Logan Street, all SCG gas lines are limited to side streets. The locations of existing gas lines are summarized as follows:

Santa Ana Boulevard 4" (between Santiago Street and Logan Street) Logan Street 2"
Lincoln Avenue/Railroad 2"
Fuller Street 2" (north of Santa Ana Boulevard)
Fruit Street 3"
Southern California Edison (SCE):

Underground cables: Underground cables are identified along the south side of Santa Ana Boulevard, west side of Lincoln Avenue, and west side of Fuller Street within the project area. Some underground SCE facilities can also be found on the north side of the Santa Ana Boulevard between Santiago Street and Fuller Street.

Aerial Facilities: Power poles and aerial wires are found along the east side of Fuller and north side of Santa Ana Boulevard.

AT&T’s facilities are located along Santiago Street, Logan Street, Fuller Street, and Fruit Street. A short segment is also located under the SARTC parking area south of Santa Ana Boulevard.

Verizon
Verizon overhead lines are located along Lincoln Avenue, Fuller Street and Fruit Street.

Metrolink
Metrolink’s telecommunication and signal control cables are located within the railroad right of way and along the railroad tracks.

Impacts to existing utilities are mainly as a result of depressing Santa Ana Boulevard roadway profile limiting the ability of utilities along side streets to continue across Santa Ana Boulevard. To that end, the following strategies are proposed:

City of Santa Ana:

Water: The 12” waterline under Santa Ana Boulevard will be relocated to a proposed parallel utility corridor north of Sana Ana Boulevard. This will allow the waterline to maintain existing ground profile as the utility corridor will not be depressed. Minor waterlines along the side streets to the north will also be able to retain their connectivity to the 12" waterline. East of Fuller Street, the 20" waterline will be relocated behind the northerly retaining wall. Additional study is needed to determine if the 8" waterline under Fuller Street south of Santa Ana Boulevard can be removed.

Sewer: Although the existing OCSD trunk main can remain in place underneath the SARTC parking area, connectivity to sewer service lines from Logan Street, Lincoln Avenue, and Fuller Street will be disrupted by the depressed Santa Ana Boulevard roadway profile. As a result, a 12" sewer is proposed to be placed in the same utility corridor to collect service lines from the north and reconnect to the OCSD trunk line near Santiago Street. It is noted that since the proposed 12" line will be at a higher elevation at Lincoln Avenue/Railroad crossing, the existing sewer service line along Lincoln Avenue/Railroad will need to be reconstructed at a higher elevation as well.

Dry Utilities (Eletric, Telephone, and Gas):

Due to a general lack of dry utilities located within Santa Ana Boulevard, existing dry utilities can be generally protected in place. It is noted that the utility corridor will allow for the protection of existing SCE underground line paralleling Santa Ana Boulevard.

Additional coordination efforts are need in the next phase of the project.

6 ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Caltrans is the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Lead Agency for this project. Initially, Caltrans determined that the appropriate environmental documentation for NEPA compliance is an Environmental Assessment (EA). Refer to Attachment J for the Preliminary Environment Study (PES). However, upon the completion of the required technical studies and public meeting, it was determined that the project is Categorically Excluded (CE). The Categorical Exemption / Categorical Exclusion Determination Form is included as Attachment K. The project is also Statutorily Exempt (SE) from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Section 15282(g). City has filed the Notice of Exemption (NOE) as the lead agency on June 23, 2014.

The PES recommended the following technical studies to support these documents: Traffic Study; Noise Study Report; Air Quality Assessment Report; Initial Site Assessment; Water Quality Memorandum; Natural Environmental Study-Minimum Impact; Visual Impact Assessment; Relocation Impact Memorandum; Historical Property Survey Report; Archaeological Survey Report, Historic Resources Evaluation Report, and Community Impact Assessment. The Environmental Commitment Record listing various mitigation measures is included as Attachment L. The result of the Traffic Study is included in Section 4.5 and the results of the remaining studies are included as follows:

6.1 Noise Study Report (NSR):

The NSR determined that six of the 16 modeled receivers (representative of six residences or noise-sensitive receptors) would approach or exceed the FHWA/Caltrans noise abatement criteria (NAC) for Activity Category B and C land uses with the implementation of the project. Noise abatement in the form of soundwalls was considered. Two soundwalls were found to be acoustically feasible and the estimated cost to construct was compared with the reasonable allowance. NB-2 was determined to be reasonable to construct at heights of 12 to 16 feet.

During construction of the proposed project, noise from construction activities would intermittently dominate the noise environment in the immediate area of construction.

Conventional construction equipment is expected to generate maximum noise levels ranging from 75 to 99 decibels (dB) at a distance of 50 feet, while noise from pile driving, if necessary, would generate maximum noise levels of approximately 101 dB at a distance of 50 feet. Noise produced by construction equipment would diminish over distance at a rate of about 6 dB per doubling of distance. No adverse noise impacts from construction are anticipated because construction would be conducted in accordance with the Department’s EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 153 5/5/2026
Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation
PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 14
provisions in Section 14-8.02, “Noise Control” of the Draft 2010 Standard Specifications and Special Provisions (SSP S5-310), and applicable local noise standards.

The closest residences to the project site are within 50 feet from the project construction areas. Therefore, these residences may be subject to short-term noise reaching 95 dBA maximum sound level (L max) or higher generated by project construction activities.

Proposed avoidance and/or minimization measures include:

N-1 Comply with the construction hours specified in the City of Santa Ana Municipal Code, Noise Section 18-314.

N-2 Noise control will conform to the provisions in Section 14-8.02 and Standard Special Provision S5-310. The noise level from the contractor’s operations between the hours of 9:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. will not exceed 86 dBA L eq (h) at a distance of 50 feet.

This requirement in no way relieves the contractor from responsibility for complying with local ordinances regulating noise levels. The contractor should use an alternative warning method instead of a sound signal unless required by safety laws. In addition, the contractor will equip all internal combustion engines with the manufacturer-recommended mufflers and will not operate any internal combustion engine on the job site without the appropriate muffler.

N-3 The sound barriers that are determined to be reasonable and feasible shall be coordinated with the affected property owners. All benefited residents and property owners will be notified should a change in placement or removal of any soundwall occur during the design phase. Additionally, all residents/property owners will be notified of final soundwall locations prior to 100% PS&E.

N-4 The contractor will implement appropriate additional noise mitigation measures, including changing the location of stationary construction equipment, turning off idling equipment, rescheduling construction activity, notifying adjacent residents in advance of construction work, and installing acoustic barriers around stationary construction noise sources.

6.2 Air Quality Assessment Report:

The Air Quality Assessment Report determined that the project would have no adverse impacts under National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The determination is based on the following:
x during project construction, the implementation of exhaust and fugitive dust emission control measures would avoid and/or minimize impacts to air quality; x the project is included in the Southern California Association of Government’s (SCAG) 2008 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and SCAG 2011 Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) (Project ID ORA082610), which implies that project’s operational emissions (which include the ozone precursors reactive organic gases (ROG) and oxides of nitrogen (NOX) meet the transportation conformity requirements imposed by EPA and the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). As such, the project would not exceed the motor vehicle emissions budget for the region;
EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 154 5/5/2026
Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation
PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 15
x Caltrans’ Carbon Monoxide (CO) protocol screening procedure demonstrated that the project would not have a material effect on localized CO concentrations; x the proposed project is not considered a project of air quality concern, as defined by 40 CFR 93.123(b)(1), and as such, a qualitative PM2.5/PM10 (particulate matter 2.5 and 10 microns or less in diameter) hot-spot evaluation is not required. It is unlikely that the proposed project would generate new air quality violations, worsen existing violations, or delay attainment of National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for PM2.5 or PM10; and
x the proposed project was found to have no potential for significant mobile-source air toxics (MSAT) emissions (using FHWA guidance) and is not linked with any special MSAT concern.

Proposed avoidance and/or minimization measures include:

AQ-1 The project would conform to Caltrans’ construction requirements, as specified in the Caltrans’ Standard Specifications, Section 7-1.01F (Air Pollution Control): “The Contractor shall comply with all air pollution control ordinances and statutes which apply to any work performed pursuant to the contract, including any air pollution control rules, regulations, ordinances and statutes, specified in Section 11017 of the Government Code.” AQ-2 The proposed project, although not a large operation under the Rule’s definition would be required to implement measures for each source of PM10 emissions, as specified in SCAQMD Rule 403 (Fugitive Dust) Implementation Handbook.

6.3 Initial Site Assessment (ISA):

Table 5 lists identified or potential environmental concerns based on site reconnaissance and review of historical information sources regarding the acquisition and temporary construction easement parcels (BOLD = Recognized Environmental Condition):

Follow up Phase I Environmental Site Assessments were conducted on the area along Fuller Street north of Fruit Street, the County maintenance facility and the industrial buildings at the south end of the acquisition area, south of Sixth Street. Additional Phase II Environmental Site Assessment was also performed on 1111 and 1143 Fruit Street (A-9).

The result of the Phase II Site Assessment did not indicate significant soil impacts that would require remediation. However, access to the remaining properties has limited further analysis. As a result, the following recommendations were made to be completed at a later date:

HAZ-1 A Phase II Environmental Site Assessment is recommended during the final design phase for parts of the study area as follows: parcel A-1 (1024 Fuller): currently the auto repair shop: sampling if indicated (interior inspection required); parcel A-2 (1022 Fuller):
former machine shop with degreaser, auto wrecking and auto repair shop; parcel A-4 (1020 Fuller): former paint manufacturer, former auto body shop, former metals recovery facility; parcel A-5 (1016 Fuller): former machine shop; parcel A-6 (1012 Fuller): former paint spray booth, former paint manufacturer (Jasco Chemical); parcel A-7 (1008 Fuller): Jasco Chemical. The Phase II ESA would include soil sampling for petroleum hydrocarbons, volatile organic compounds, heavy metals and/or those chemicals formerly stored on site by Jasco Chemical, as appropriate for each individual location.

EXHIBIT 2

PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 16
HAZ-2 Perform a comprehensive survey for asbestos-containing materials, lead-based paint, PCBs and mercury switches during the final design phase at the buildings proposed for acquisition.

HAZ-3 Subsurface investigations are deemed to be unnecessary on Temporary Construction Easement parcels. However, in view of the former usage of Parcel T-9 for battery manufacturing, and the current presence of an automotive junkyard on the site, soil sampling for lead, cadmium and petroleum hydrocarbons should performed if any ground disturbance is contemplated in order to ensure worker and public safety during construction.

HAZ-4 The hazardous waste storage area and possible waste oil tank at J&H Drilling should be inspected for possible releases of waste oil or other environmental concerns.

HAZ-5 Removal of the three closed-in-place USTs at the former Jasco Chemical plant should be considered.

HAZ-6 Inspection and sampling for asbestos, lead-based paint, PCBs and mercury switches in the building in the acquisition area.

6.4 Water Quality Memorandum
The following avoidance and minimization measures were included in the Water Quality Memorandum:

WQ-1 The project shall comply with the provisions of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit, Waste Discharge Requirements for Discharges of Storm Water Runoff Associated with Construction Activities (Order Number 2009-0009-DWQ, NPDES Number CAS000002) and any subsequent permit in effect at the time of construction.

Prior to construction, Permit Registration Documents (PRDs), which includes permit application fee, a Notice of Intent (NOI), a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 156 5/5/2026
Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation
PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 17
and other compliance related documents required by the permit, shall be mailed to the State Water Quality Control Board.

The project SWPPP shall be prepared by a Qualified SWPPP Practitioner (QSP) or a Qualified SWPPP Developers (QSD) to address all construction related activities, equipment, and materials that have the potential to impact the water quality. The SWPPP shall identify the sources of pollutants that may affect the quality of storm water and include construction site BMPs to control pollutants and sediments. The SWPPP shall include erosion control, sediment control, wind erosion control, tracking control, and all other applicable non-stormwater management and material management BMPs. All construction site BMPs shall follow the latest edition of the CASQA Stormwater Best Management Practice Handbook for Construction. In addition, the project water quality risk level shall be identified. Rain Event Action Plan, Field Monitoring, and Reporting Guidance shall be prepared for effluent monitoring and receiving water monitoring.

The General Permit requires that permittees prepare, certify, and electronically submit an Annual Report no later than September 1st of each year. Reporting requirements are identified in Section XVI of the General Permit.

WQ-2 Treatment BMPs shall be implemented to the maximum extent practicable (MEP), consistent with the requirements of the Orange County MS4 Permit, Order R8-2009-0030 (amended by Order R8-2010-0062, NPDES No. CAS 618030). Biofiltration systems or catch basin filter inserts are proposed as the potential treatment BMPs for the project. Detailed design of the BMP and the location will be determined in the final engineering phase.

Removal of existing vegetation will be minimized to the greatest extent possible and any mature trees to be saved would be identified on final plans. The final siting and design of treatment BMPs will be designed in compliance with the 2010 OC Model Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), the Technical Guidance Document (TGD) and the 2003 OC Drainage Area Management Plan (DAMP).

WQ-3 Design pollution prevention BMPs shall be implemented in accordance with Green Streets Municipal Handbook (EPA-833-F-08-009; 2008), such as preservation of existing vegetation, slope/surface protection systems (permanent soil stabilization), concentrated flow conveyance systems such as ditches, berms, dikes, and swales, overside drains, flared end sections, and outlet protection/velocity dissipation devices.

6.5 Natural Environmental Study-Minimum Impact (NES/MI) The NES-Minimal Impacts (NES/MI) found no natural vegetation communities occurring within the Biological Study Area (BSA). In addition, no impact to jurisdictional waters and wetlands would occur as these resources are not present within the BSA.

The following measures are avoidance and/or minimization measures to reduce impacts to species.

BIO-1 Preconstruction Nesting Bird Survey. If project-related site disturbances are scheduled to occur during the core nesting period (February 15 through September 1), a qualified biologist will perform preconstruction nesting bird surveys. The survey will be completed within seven days prior to any project-related disturbances. If native birds are nesting on or within 100 feet (as accessible) of the LOD, a 100-foot buffer (or an alternative width, as determined by a qualified ornithologist) should be flagged around the nest, and no EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 157 5/5/2026
Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation
PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 18
project-related construction activities within the buffer will occur until it has been determined that all young have fledged or the nest is no longer active.

BIO-2 Preconstruction Nesting Raptor Survey. If project-related site disturbances are scheduled to occur during the core nesting period (February 15 through September 1), a qualified biologist will perform preconstruction nesting raptor surveys. The survey will be completed within seven days prior to any project-related disturbances. If raptors are nesting on or within 500 feet (as accessible) of the limits of disturbance (LOD), a 500-foot buffer (or an alternative width, as determined by a qualified ornithologist) should be flagged around the nest, and no project-related construction activities within the buffer will occur until it has been determined that all young have fledged or the nest is no longer active.

BIO-3 Preconstruction Bat Survey. To prevent impacts on daytime bat roosts and maternity roosts, a qualified biologist will be retained to conduct bat and bat roosting site surveys prior to commencement of building demolition or mature tree removal activities. This pre-construction survey will be conducted at any abandoned buildings, as well as any mature tree proposed for removal and within 100 feet of the LOD. If no roosting sites or bats are found, a report confirming their absence will be sent to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and no further mitigation will be required.

If the pre-construction survey finds bats to be roosting, and building demolition/mature tree removal is scheduled to occur between October 1 and March 30 (outside of the maternity season of April 1st through September 30), the bats shall be evicted by the following methods. Eviction of bats shall be conducted using bat exclusion techniques, developed by Bat Conservation International (BCI) and in consultation with CDFW. These techniques allow the bats to exit the roosting site but prevent re-entry to the site. This process will include, but not be limited to, the installation of one-way exclusion devices on buildings and a two-step cutting process for trees. Sealing buildings at the time of abandonment may prevent the need for the exclusion process. Where exclusionary devices would be installed on buildings, the devices shall remain in place for seven days, and then the exclusion points and any other potential entrances shall be sealed. A visual inspection of each building would be required prior to demolition to verify that all bats have been successfully excluded.

Where the two-step cutting process would be applicable for tree roosts, surrounding branches, not housing bats, would be removed during step one. This would alter the condition of the roost tree, causing bats to abandon the roost. The tree can then be fully removed, as step two. A visual inspection of the roost tree would be required prior to removal to verify that all bats have been successfully excluded. This work shall be completed by a bat exclusion professional.

If the pre-construction survey finds bats to be roosting and building demolition/mature tree removal is scheduled to occur during the maternity season (April 1 through September 30), a qualified biologist will monitor the roost to determine if the roost site is a maternal roost.

This may be determined by either visual inspection of the roost for bat pups, if possible, or monitoring the roost after the adults leave for the night to listen for bat pups. If the roost is determined to not be a maternal roost, then the bats shall be evicted as described above. If the roost is determined to be a maternal roost, eviction of a maternal roost cannot occur during the nursery season, as bat pups cannot leave the roost until they have reached maturity. In this case, a 250-foot-wide buffer zone (or an alternative width, as determined in consultation with CDFW) shall be established around the roosting site, within which no construction-related impacts shall occur until the bat pups are mature enough to permanently leave the roost.

PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 19
BIO-4 Standard Best Management Practices. Applicable Best Management Practices shall be implemented. These include but are not limited to:
x Water pollution and erosion control plans shall be developed and implemented in accordance with Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) requirements. x Equipment storage, fueling, and staging areas shall be located at sites with minimal risks of direct drainage into surface waters. Project related spills of hazardous materials shall be reported to appropriate entities, including but not limited to the City and/or RWQCB, and shall be cleaned up immediately and contaminated soils removed to approved disposal areas.
x Exotic species removed during construction will be properly handled to prevent sprouting or regrowth.
x Trucks with loads carrying vegetation will be covered, and vegetation materials removed from the site will be disposed of in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
x Construction equipment will be cleaned of mud or other debris that may contain invasive plants and/or seeds and inspected to reduce the potential of spreading noxious weeds before mobilizing to the site and before leaving the site during the course of construction.
x To avoid attracting wildlife to the project site, the construction shall be kept as clean of debris as possible. All food related trash items shall be enclosed in sealed containers and regularly removed from the site(s).

6.6 Visual Impact Assessment
The report concluded that the proposed project will not result in substantial adverse effects on visual resources under the NEPA.

Since the project’s grade separation features are essentially at or below existing grade levels, they will not substantially affect either east or west-facing views along Santa Ana Boulevard. As motorist or pedestrians enter the underpass while travelling eastward on Santa Ana Boulevard, they will experience only the briefest interruptions in views of the Lomas Ridge and the more distant Santa Ana Mountains ridgelines. Hence, no significant changes to key views will occur. Residential viewers also will continue to have key eastfacing views of the mountain ridgelines available to them. The loss of mature trees will reduce visual quality over a period of five or more years; however, because comparable replacement landscaping will be installed per City and Caltrans’ best management practice, no adverse effects would occur under NEPA..

Caltrans and FHWA mandate that a qualitative aesthetic approach be taken to mitigate for visual quality loss in the project area. The proposed project fulfills these requirements because it is expected that it will address the actual loss of visual quality that will occur in the project viewshed within five to ten years of when the project is implemented by installing comparable replacement trees for those proposed for removal, where feasible, and groundcover where full right-of-way takes would necessitate demolition and/or where rightof-way design constraints will preclude installation of replacement trees. The project will be implemented in adherence to the guidance found in Caltrans’ Highway Design Manual and other Caltrans memoranda regarding landscape design policy, which mandates consideration of the local design context in which the work is proposed and obtaining the input of local governmental agencies. In addition, the project will be designed and EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 159 5/5/2026
Santa Ana Blvd. Grade Separation
PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 20
implemented with the concurrence of the District Landscape Architect. In summary, substantial adverse effects under NEPA are not anticipated.

The following avoidance and minimization measures shall be implemented:

VIS-1 The project will be implemented in adherence to the guidance found in Caltrans' Highway Design Manual and other Caltrans memoranda regarding landscape design policy, which mandates consideration of the local design context in which the work is proposed and obtaining the input of local governmental agencies. In addition, the project will be designed and implemented with the concurrence of the District Landscape Architect.

6.7 Relocation Impact Memo
The project would affect 16 distinct nonresidential properties. Of these, seven nonresidential properties (composed of nine parcels) would be fully acquired and would result in displacement requiring relocation. An additional two nonresidential properties would be partially acquired (sliver takes) and would require some property reconfiguration but would not result in displacement. Nine properties, including portions of two of the partially acquired properties mentioned previously, would require a temporary construction easement. Based on real estate listings and the professional opinions of two local commercial real estate agents, there appear to be a sufficient supply of adequate sites to relocate all of the displacees within the immediate vicinity of the City of Santa Ana. Given the availability of suitable properties in the immediate vicinity of the project, displacement and relocation of businesses would not result in substantial hardship. Relocation assistance benefits or entitlements would be provided to displacees in accordance with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Act of 1970, as amended.

Any person (individual, family, corporation, partnership, or association) who moves from real property or moves personal property from real property as a result of the acquisition of the real property, or required to relocate as a result of a written notice from the City of Santa Ana from the real property required for a transportation project is eligible for “Relocation Assistance.” All activities will be conducted in accordance with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, as amended. Relocation resources shall be available to all displacees, in compliance with Title VI, free of discrimination.

6.8 Historical Properties Survey Report (HPSR)
The HSPR determined a finding of No Historic Properties Affected. Concurrence on this determination was received from the State Historic Prservation Officer on February 2, 2012.

6.9 Archaeological Survey Report (ASR)
No archaeological resources have been previously recorded within the project area of potential effect (APE), and no new cultural resources were observed within the project APE for the proposed project during the field survey. Given the geologic setting and the level of previous disturbance within the project APE, the potential to encounter buried prehistoric resources or historic-period archaeological resources within the project APE is considered to be low.

The following avoidance and minimization measure which is standard on all Caltrans’ project will be implemented:

CR-1 It is the Department’s policy to avoid cultural resources whenever possible. Further investigations may be needed if unanticipated cultural sites are encountered that cannot be EXHIBIT 2
City Council 22 – 160 5/5/2026

PROJECT REPORT EQUIVALENT 21
avoided by the project. If cultural materials are discovered during construction, all earthmoving activity within and around the immediate discovery area will be diverted until a qualified archaeologist can assess the nature and significance of the find. If changes are made to the proposed project, an additional archaeological survey would be required to include areas not previously surveyed.

6.10 Historic Resources Evaluation Report (HRER)
Thirty-four built environment properties were evaluated in the HRER. The Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad was determined ineligible for the National Register and the California Register in 2007, as was 1102 East Fruit Street in 2004. 917 Logan Street was surveyed in 1980 and was determined to be a 5D2. Due to a lack of supporting documentation of that finding and because it was assessed more than 20 years ago, it has been re-evaluated and determined individually ineligible for the National Register and California Register. The Orange County Maintenance Yard was previously determined eligible for the National Register by State Historic Preservation Officier (SHPO) on December 27, 2004. A re-assessment of the determination and supporting documentation for 1102 East Fruit Street concluded that the finding in 2004 was in error and the Orange County Road Department Maintenance Yard is ineligible for the National Register and the California Register. All of the evaluated properties have been found to be ineligible for the National Register and the California Register and are not considered historical resources for the purposes of CEQA. All other properties within the APE meet the criteria for Section 106 PA Attachment 4 (Properties Exempt from Evaluation). No impacts were identified and no avoidance, minimization and/or mitigation measures were needed.

6.11 Community Impact Assessment (CIA)
The Community Impact Assessment considers how the proposed project would affect the people, neighborhoods, communities, businesses, and larger social and economic systems.

The findings of the CIA concludes that the proposed project would not introduce an incompatible use in the area, the pattern and rate of population and housing growth would be consistent with those contemplated in existing regional and local plans for the area, and the proposed project would have beneficial effect on community. Cumulative impacts are not expected to be cumulatively considerable.

The following avoidance and minimization measures shall be implemented:

TRF-1 Prepare and implement a Traffic Management Plan (TMP). The TMP will be provided to emergency service providers and school officials with construction plans prior to commencement of construction. The following shall be included in the TMP or carried out in coordination with the TMP:
x Implement a construction management program that maintains access to and from the project area community through signage, detours, flagmen, etc. x Coordinate with emergency services providers to ensure that alternative response routes to and from the project area community are in place during construction of the proposed project.
x Provide access to all fire hydrants along all access routes and provide and maintain fire department vehicle access roads along project site. x Consult with local school officials to indentify safe vehicular routes and pedestrian crossing for student traveling to and from schools in the project area community during construction of the proposed project.
x Coordinate with the utility providers for relocation of ut9ility lines and inform the utility users in advance about the date and timings of service disruptions.

EXHIBIT 2

x Prepare temporary detour plans during the Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) phase.
x Provide notification to be sent to emergency service providers, local school officials, and any residents that may be substantially affected by any street closure (including partial and/or full closures) or traffic diversions at least two weeks in advance of the planned closure or diversion.

RELOC-1 In accordance with the federal Uniform Relocation Assistance and Property Acquisition Act of 1970 as amended (42 USC Secs. 4601-4655), provide compensation to eligible recipients for property acquisitions.

UT-1 The City will coordinate all utility relocation work with the affected utility companies to ensure minimum disruption to customers in the service areas during construction. 7 RAILROAD INVOLVEMENT
There are two SCRRA mainline tracks located within the project. OCTA owns the railroad right of way, while SCRRA maintains and operates the Metrolink service. SCRRA is an important stakeholder of the project. The PDT initially met with SCRRA on August 31, 2011. Additional meetings between February and August of 2014 were held to discuss structure type and shoofly alignment. In these meetings, SCRRA approved the proposed steel girder bridge in concept.

SCRRA also rejected a staging concept that would eliminate the need for a shoofly.

It was also determined that SCRRA will be responsible for all work related to shoofly installation, temporary at-grade crossing with the detour road, and removal of existing at-grade crossing.

Further coordination effort will be needed during the PS&E phase of the project to obtain design approval and finalization of the Construction and Maintenance Agreement. 8 FUNDING
It will be a priority of OCTA to securing funds for this project. Funding may be Federal, State, or Local or a combination of each..
