APPENDIX C Cultural Resources Evaluation Cultural Resource Assessment for the Village South Specific Plan Project, City of Claremont, Los Angeles County, California APPENDIX C Cultural Resources Evaluation Cultural Resource Assessment for the Village South Specific Plan Project, City of Claremont, Los Angeles County, California Roberta Thomas, MA, RPA and Justin Castells, MA Prepared By Applied EarthWorks, Inc. 133 N. San Gabriel Blvd., Suite 201 Pasadena, CA 91107 Prepared For Meridian Consultants, LLC Ned Baldwin Senior Project Manager 910 Hampshire Road, Suite V Westlake Village, CA 91361 June 2017 National Archaeological Database (NADB) Type of Study: Literature Search, Reconnaissance Site Visit USGS 7.5’ Quadrangle: Ontario, CA Acreage: 17 acres Level of Investigation: CEQA Cultural Resource Investigation Key Words: Vortex Building; City of Claremont; Village South Specific Plan; Los Angeles County; CEQA; 17 acres surveyed; 21 built-environment resources MANAGEMENT SUMMARY The City of Claremont proposed to develop the Village South Specific Plan (Project), in the city of Claremont, Los Angeles County, California. The City proposes to develop a specific plan for transit-oriented development and multi-modal connections to transit for a 17-acre area just south of Claremont Village. Applied EarthWorks, Inc. (Æ) was retained to conduct a cultural resource investigation of the Project area in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This report summarizes the methods and results of the cultural resource investigation of the 17- acre proposed Project area. This assessment included archaeological and historical background research, communication with Native American tribal representatives, and a reconnaissance- level site visit of the Project area. The purpose of the investigation was to determine the potential for the proposed Project to impact historical resources under CEQA. The cultural literature and records search at the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) of the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) at California State University, Fullerton, indicated that 61 cultural resources have been documented within a 1-mile radius of the Project area. One of these resources, the Vortox building (a historic-period built- environment resource), is located within the Project area. In addition to the records search conducted at the SCCIC, Æ also examined the City’s local historical registry and identified nine additional historic-period built-environment resources located within the Project area. As part of the cultural resource assessment of the Project area, Æ also requested a search of the Sacred Lands File (SLF) from the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC). Results of the SLF search indicate that there are no known Native American cultural resources within the immediate Project area. Native American individuals and organizations were contacted to elicit information on Native American resources within the proposed Project area. Of the nine groups and/or individuals contacted, two responses have been received to date. The Fernando Tataviam Band of Mission Indians indicated that the Project area is outside of the Tribe’s boundary. The Gabrieleno Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation stated that the Project is within a prehistoric Gabrieleno village area and, as such, the area is very sensitive for Native American cultural resources. The Tribe has requested to have a Native American monitor on site during all ground disturbance associated with the Project. A reconnaissance-level site visit of the Project area was conducted by Æ on May 8, 2017. The site visit of the Project area did not identify any potentially significant prehistoric or historical archaeological resources within or immediately adjacent to the Project area. However, 10 previously recorded historic-period built-environment resources that were identified within the Project area during the records search effort were revisited during the site visit. In addition, the surveyor identified 11 other historic-period built-environment resources within the Project area. Of the 21 properties identified, 11 properties are considered eligible for listing on the California Register of Historical Resources and are therefore historical resources for the purposes of CEQA. Æ recommends that any actions that may result in substantial adverse change to these 11 resources be avoided. In the event that avoidance is not possible, documentation of the historic Phase I Cultural Resource Assessment – Village South Specific Plan Project ii resources based on the requirements of the Historic American Building Survey (HABS) is recommended. Field notes documenting the current investigation are on file at Æ’s Pasadena office. A copy of the final report will be placed on file at the SCCIC.

  • Texas Central Picks Preferred High-Speed Train Passenger Station in Houston
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Texas Central picks preferred high-speed train passenger station in Houston • Preferred location will revitalize Northwest Mall site at I-610 and US 290 • Project seen as catalyst for economic growth, new jobs and development • Local connections planned with major employment centers, public transit HOUSTON [Feb. 5, 2018] – Highlighting Houston’s history as a major railway hub, Mayor Sylvester Turner and developers of the Texas Bullet Train announced today the preferred site of the new passenger station, at the Northwest Mall near the interchange of Interstate 610 and US 290. The terminal will be ideally located in a high-growth area, with easy access to employment centers, including the Galleria, the Energy Corridor and downtown. The station not only will be a catalyst for economic growth but it also will offer a convenient, efficient and direct network for passengers to and from local transit systems. The selection comes about a month after federal regulators released an environmental analysis that said the 200-mph, Houston-to-North Texas train would alleviate the strain on the state’s existing infrastructure and is needed to accommodate growing demands. “Houston continues to grow. Growing the smart way includes providing a wider choice of transportation options beyond more private vehicles and more roads. The Texas Bullet Train fits the transportation paradigm shift I have called for. And now with a preferred location for the Houston station, we are one big step closer to boarding for an exciting trip to the Brazos Valley and on to Dallas,” Mayor Sylvester Turner said. Texas Central, the high-speed train developers, released maps and conceptual renderings – final designs are pending – that show a multi-level station on a 45-acre site.

As a result of both federal and City permitting requirements, the Parcel No. 360-130-003 Project (Project) must comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The U.S. Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) is the lead agency for Section 106 compliance and the City of Menifee is the Lead Agency for the purposes of CEQA. To determine whether the proposed Project would affect historic properties or historical resources, Applied EarthWorks, Inc. (Æ) conducted a cultural resource assessment of the approximately 43- acre (ac) Project’s Area of Potential Effects (APE). A cultural resources literature and records search was completed at the Eastern Information Center (EIC) of the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS), housed at the University of California, Riverside.
