Compliance Targets and EWMP Implementation Strategy) Appendix 7.A Detailed Recipe for Final EWMP Compliance (Compliance Targets and EWMP Implementation Strategy) Appendix 7.A • Detailed Recipe for Final EWMP Compliance This appendix presents the detailed Compliance Targets and EWMP Implementation Strategy. A series of tables are presented below, organized first by jurisdiction and then by watershed. Index maps of the subwatershed IDs are presented in Appendix 7.B. The following color-gradients and symbol legend applies to all tables in Appendix 7A: RED = Subwatersheds with highest required % load reductions BLUE = Subwatersheds with highest BMP capacities within a BMP category --- = BMP opportunity was either not available or not selected for the subwatershed (a value of 0.00 means that BMP capacity is non-zero but less than 0.004).

The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC or Commission) provided detailed comments to Metro’s Draft Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report in October 2017. One of the Commission’s key comments focused on the selection of a Rail Alternative and the need for “additional evaluation of extending underground segments in order to mitigate the significant and unavoidable impacts to Traffic, Safety and Security that at-grade street-running/median-running alignments present.” We’ve learned that Metro has selected the Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA) to be a modified version of Alternative 4 (Light Rail Transit (LRT)). The Commission is concerned that this modified Alternative 4 eliminated any considerations for a subway segment. Elimination of the subway portion results in a street-running segment that proposes to create numerous at-grade crossings at existing roadway intersections on Van Nuys Boulevard.

  • Iii. General Description of Environmental Setting
    III. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING Section 15125 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines requires that an EIR include a description of the existing environment. This section is intended to give a general overview of the environmental setting for the Hidden Creeks Estates project. More detailed information on existing conditions is provided under each individual environmental topic studied in Section IV, Environmental Impact Analysis. This section also provides an overview of related projects that are considered as part of the future conditions in evaluating cumulative impacts. A. OVERVIEW OF ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING 1. Project Site and Surrounding Area Location The Hidden Creeks Estates project site is located in the northern part of the San Fernando Valley at the base of the Santa Susana Mountains. The site is bound by the Santa Susana Mountains to the north and east, and the Simi Hills to the west. The site elevation ranges from approximately 1,500 to 2,700 feet above mean sea level as measured from the US Geological Survey 7.5-Minute Oat Mountain Quadrangle Topographic Map (USGS, 1951, revised 1969). Existing Land Uses The project site consists of approximately 285 acres of hilly terrain. The site currently contains two ranches: one for cattle and one for horses, and several experimental dwelling units. The Hidden Creeks Ranch has also been occasionally used as a location for the filming of television and movie productions and contains some sets built for filming on the southern end of the ranch. The Hidden Creeks Ranch, one of two ranches on the property, primarily consists of open space and grazing land for cattle.

    Modelling the LA River: Threats and opportunities for the Los Angeles River, USA Master’s thesis T. Lassche BSc January 2016 Modelling the LA River: Threats and opportunities for the Los Angeles River, USA Master’s thesis in Civil Engineering & Management Faculty of Engineering Technology University of Twente Author T. Lassche BSc Contact [email protected] Location and date Enschede, January 22, 2016 Thesis defense date January 29, 2016 Graduation committee Graduation supervisor Dr. ir. D.C.M. Augustijn University of Twente Daily supervisor Dr. R.M.J. Schielen Rijkswaterstaat, University of Twente ABSTRACT In the early 1900’s the Los Angeles River in the Los Angeles County, California, USA was an uncontrolled, meandering river, which provided valuable resources (fresh water, irrigation) for the inhabitants. After some devastating floods in the period 1914 – 1938 the Congress and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) decided to change the river into a concrete channel. This channel, which was completed by 1960, has increased the safety of the city by prevented for big floods, but nowadays it causes other problems. Due to the huge urbanization of the city the river became literally and figuratively isolated from people and communities and this is increasingly considered as unwanted and a missed opportunity to make the inhabitants of Los Angeles familiar with its river. Another problem is that due to the high flow velocities as a result of the low friction of the concrete and the steep character of the river (an average slope of 0.29 percent), the concrete washes away at some places, which decreases the safety of the city.

  • Iv.G Water Resources
    IV.G WATER RESOURCES 1. INTRODUCTION This section addresses the potential impacts of the proposed Hidden Creeks Estates project on the existing hydrology conditions on the project site. Sources utilized in the preparation of this section include correspondence with personnel at the Bureau of Engineering of the City’s Public Works Department, as well as technical studies. A hydrology study for this project site was prepared by HMK Engineering, Incorporated in January 2007 and is provided in its entirety in Appendix IV.G of this Draft EIR. 2. METHODOLOGY Pre-Developed Condition and Post-Developed Condition Hydrology reports were prepared by HMK Engineering, Incorporated in January 2007. Using the information contained in these reports, as well as the City of Los Angeles Stormwater Program Standard Urban Stormwater Mitigation Plan requirements for 10+ housing developments, the California Stormwater Best Management Practices (BMP) Handbook created by the California Stormwater Quality Association (CASQA) and the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), an analysis of potential changes to surface water hydrology, surface water quality, groundwater levels, and groundwater quality as a result of project implementation was completed. 3. EXISTING CONDITIONS a. Surface Water Hydrology The project site consists of approximately 285 acres of undeveloped land located immediately west of the community of Porter Ranch and is situated between Browns Canyon Wash and Mormon Canyon Creek, immediately north of the confluence of these two creeks. The partial upstream watershed of Browns Canyon and Mormon Canyon starts at the high ridge of Oat Mountain, which is located north of the project site.
