  • Appendix a Final Section 4(F) De Minimis Finding(S) and Resources Evaluated Relative to the Requirements of Section 4(F) No Use
    Appendix A Final Section 4(f) De Minimis Finding(s) and Resources Evaluated Relative to the Requirements of Section 4(f) No Use This section of the document discusses de minimis impact determinations under Section 4(f). Section 6009(a) of SAFETEA-LU amended Section 4(f) legislation at 23 United States Code (USC) 138 and 49 USC 303 to simplify the processing and approval of projects that have only de minimis impacts on lands protected by Section 4(f). This amendment provides that once the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) determines that a transportation use of Section 4(f) property, after consideration of any impact avoidance, minimization, and mitigation or enhancement measures, results in a de minimis impact on that property, an analysis of avoidance alternatives is not required and the Section 4(f) evaluation process is complete. FHWA’s final rule on Section 4(f) de minimis findings is codified in 23 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 774.3 and CFR 774.17. Responsibility for compliance with Section 4(f) has been assigned to the Department pursuant to 23 USC 326 and 327, including de minimis impact determinations, as well as coordination with those agencies that have jurisdiction over a Section 4(f) resource that may be affected by a project action. A.1 Project Description The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), in cooperation with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), is proposing to widen I-5 between I-405 and SR-55 (Figure A-1, Project Location). The project objectives are to increase the mainline capacity within the project limits along the I-5 corridor, improve the capacity of the ramps within the project limits along the I-5 corridor, improve operational deficiencies of merge and diverge areas within the project limits along the I-5 corridor, improve the existing auxiliary lanes operations, and optimize access of the existing high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes.

  • A Guide to Irvine, California
    A GUIDE TO IRVINE, CALIFORNIA Learn about life and things to do in Irvine, home to Regents Point, a be.group senior living community. IN THE HEART OF ORANGE COUNTY, Irvine is close to so many enjoyable things, from the beautiful coastline of its next-door neighbors, Laguna Beach and Newport Beach, to big-city entertainment in Los Angeles. Family-friendly attractions like Disneyland and Knott’s Berry Farm are less than 25 miles away. Irvine started as a ranching community, but the arrival of the University of California, Irvine in the 1960s quickly turned it into one of the country’s largest master-planned communities. Today, Irvine offers a world- class mix of education, business, outdoor recreation and family-friendly neighborhoods—all in a sunny, Mediterranean climate. The quality of life here is so high that it’s often ranked as one of the “Best Places to Live” by Money magazine, and the FBI has named Irvine as “America’s Safest City” every year for a decade. Regents Point, a be.group senior living community in Irvine, sits right next to the vast William R. Mason Regional Park, perfect for leisurely strolls and family picnics. A few blocks away is the University of California, Irvine, with plenty of opportunities for continuing education. Fine dining, shopping, arts and entertainment, and those famous golden beaches are just a few minutes’ drive away.

  • 1. Executive Summary
    1. Executive Summary 1.1 INTRODUCTION This Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report ("DSEIR") addresses the environmental effects associated with the implementation of the Proposed Irvine High School No. 5 Project at the former Marine Corps Air Station (“MCAS”), El Toro (“Proposed Project”). The California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") requires that local government agencies, prior to taking action on projects over which they have discretionary approval authority, consider the environmental consequences of such projects. In this case the Irvine Unified School District ("District or IUSD"), as lead agency, determined that a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (EIR) should be prepared. An EIR is a public document designed to provide the public and local and State governmental agency decision makers with an analysis of potential environmental consequences to support informed decision-making. This document focuses on those impacts determined to be potentially significant as disclosed in the Initial Study completed for the Proposed Project as modified in Section 8 of this DSEIR (see Appendix A to this DSEIR). As discussed in Section 3.3.1, Previous Environmental Documentation, of this DSEIR, in 2003, the City certified the Final Program Environmental Impact Report for the Orange County Great Park (“Great Park”), SCH No. 2002101020, dated May 2003 (“2003 OCGP EIR”), which analyzed the environmental effects of the development of 3,625 residential units and 6,585,594 million square feet of non-residential development (including the Great Park and other non-Great Park Neighborhood uses) on a portion of the former Marine Corps Air Station ("MCAS") El Toro. Subsequently, the City prepared, and the City Council of the City of Irvine (“City Council”) approved, seven addenda to the 2003 OCGP EIR (“Addenda”), which analyzed revisions made to the project that were analyzed in the 2003 OCGP EIR.
