The proposed Project includes the construction of five buildings used for warehouse and winery warehouse and associated infrastructure, including parking lots, driveways, and utilities. The Project is subject to the legal requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code 21000 et seq.) 1970, as amended, as a result of discretionary approval requirements through the City of American Canyon (CEQA lead agency) entitlement process. A portion of the Project will also require a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for impacts to waters of the United States. As such, the Project proponent must meet requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act, and therefore is seeking a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, San Francisco District. Cardno field personnel conducted a field visit of the APE which has been previously surveyed (Jones and Stokes 2008). Cardno assumes that the conditions described previously in the Cultural Resources Inventory completed by Jones and Stokes had not changed. The condition of the APE was unchanged since the Cultural Resources Inventory was completed in 2008. All cultural resources work for the proposed Project was conducted under the direct supervision of Principal Investigator Joshua Peabody M.A. Mr. Peabody was responsible for overall Project management and implementation, including fieldwork and report writing. Assisting field crew included Ashley Hallock M.A., Cardno Cultural Resources Specialist. Both Mr. Peabody and Ms. Hallock meet the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Professional Qualifications in Archaeology and History. Three previously recorded cultural resources have been identified within the ½ -mile wide record search radius. No cultural resources are within the present Project’s APE. June 16, 2014 Cardno ENTRIX Management Summary iv A Cultural Resources Inventory for the Napa Airport Corporate Center 1 Introduction 1.1 Project Description The Napa Airport Corporate Center (Project) is a 50-acre industrial warehouse development project proposed by Panattoni Development Inc. The Project is located at South Kelly Road and Devlin Road near S.R. 29 in the City of American Canyon (City) (Appendix A). The Project includes the construction of five buildings used for warehouse and winery warehouse and associated infrastructure, including parking lots, driveways, and utilities. It is important to note that one of the five buildings could be replaced by an Arco Station that is being proposed by a different applicant. Total square footage of buildings ranges from 551,769 - 572,782 square feet, depending on proposed development of the Arco Station. The Project area occurs in the central eastern portion of the Cuttings Wharf USGS 7.5 minute quadrangle map within Township 4 North, Range 4 West, Section 12, Latitude 38.204453, Longitude -122.258886. The Project area is bounded by Hwy 29 on the east, South Kelley Road on the northwest, the Southern Pacific Railroad to the west and industrial development on the south. 1.2 Regulatory Context The present inventory was conducted to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code 21000 et seq.) 1970, as amended. Additionally, these investigations were conducted to meet the requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act. The proponent is seeking a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, San Francisco District for impacts to waters in District 3 located in the southeast portion of the Project site. 1.3 Project Area of Potential Effect The APE consists of the maximum Project footprint, which includes the construction of five buildings and associated infrastructure.

Lawrence ABSTRACT This study examines the role of the Bracero Program in the growth of Sonoma and Napa County viticulture in an attempt to understand how important bracero labor was to the industry. While most histories of the Bracero Program are nationwide or statewide in scope, this study explores the regional complexities of how and why the program was used in Sonoma and Napa Counties, how both the growers and laborers in the region felt about it, and how this was different from and similar to other regions. Government documents provided the statistics necessary to determine the demographic changes in the region due to the Bracero Program. Important primary source material that provided the human side of the story includes a number of oral history interviews I conducted, the collection of Wine Industry Oral Histories, and various regional newspaper articles.

    4. Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures 4.E Noise Introduction This section summarizes information on the noise environment in the St. Helena planning area and provides an evaluation of the noise-related effects of the proposed General Plan Update. The analysis considers existing and projected noise along major roadways, in addition to other noise sources in the area. Mitigation measures are recommended that address General Plan Update policies and implementing actions. The noise element of a city’s general plan is a comprehensive approach for including noise control in the planning process. It is a tool for achieving and maintaining environmental noise levels that are compatible with specific land use types. The Public Health, Safety and Noise Element of the proposed General Plan Update identifies noise-sensitive land uses and noise sources, defines areas of noise impact, and establishes goals, policies, and implementing actions to protect people from excessive noise and vibration. Setting Background Information on Noise Noise may be defined as unwanted sound. Noise is usually objectionable Noise is defined as unwanted because it is disturbing or annoying. The objectionable nature of sound could sound. be caused by its pitch or its loudness. Pitch is the height or depth of a tone or sound, depending on the relative rapidity (frequency) of the vibrations by which it is produced. Higher pitched signals sound louder to humans than sounds with a lower pitch. Loudness is intensity of sound waves combined with the reception characteristics of the ear. Intensity may be compared with the height of an ocean wave in that it is a measure of the amplitude of the sound wave.

  • 3.12 Cultural Resources
    3. Affected Environment / Environmental Setting, Environmental Consequences / Impacts, and Mitigation Measures 3.12 Cultural Resources This section describes the existing cultural resources in the action area, the applicable regulations at the federal, state, and local levels, and the potential impacts to cultural resources from the North Bay Water Recycling Program (NBWRP). Information for the section was adapted from the Cultural Resources Survey Report completed for the NBWRA (ESA, 2008). The Impacts and Mitigation Measures section defines significance criteria used for the impact assessment and presents a discussion of potential project-related impacts. Determination of significance of impacts in this EIR/EIS apply only to CEQA, not to NEPA. 3.12.1 Affected Environment/Setting Area of Potential Effects The Area of Potential Effects (APE) for the NBWRP is defined as “the geographic area or areas within which an undertaking may directly or indirectly cause alterations in the character or use of historic properties, if any such properties exist” (36 CFR 800.16[b]). In consultation with the Bureau of Reclamation, an archaeological APE and an architectural/structural APE was determined for the NBWRP (Welch, 2008). Depending upon the project components, the archaeological APE has been determined as the area of direct impact for the NBWRP. For example, trenching for installing the recycled water pipelines would require a maximum width of three feet and a vertical depth of up to six feet; therefore the vertical APE would be six feet. For the NBWRP, an APE of 50-foot wide corridor (25-foot radius from centerline) would be assumed in undeveloped areas to accommodate for areas for staging and spoils.
