  • EXHIBIT 31 RO-6-164 S.0 Summary
    EXHIBIT 31 RO-6-164 S.0 Summary CHAPTER S.0 SUMMARY This Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is an informational document intended for use by the County of San Diego (County), other public agencies, and the general public in evaluating the potential environmental effects of implementing the proposed Newland Sierra Project (project) and alternatives, and the mitigation measures recommended to avoid or minimize the identified significant environmental effects. Summary tables are used to describe the significant environmental effects resulting from the project and alternatives, and to summarize the recommended mitigation measures. Figures are also provided throughout the EIR to depict key aspects of the project and alternatives. The objective of this Summary is to provide a brief but comprehensive description of the project, the required project approvals, the impacts, alternatives, areas of controversy, issues to be resolved, impacts, and recommended mitigation measures. The Summary is not intended to replace the EIR text or the important information presented in technical appendices; rather, the EIR and appendices contain this more detailed information. The County is the lead agency under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for preparation and certification of this EIR for the requested discretionary project approvals. The County has exercised, and will continue to exercise, its independent judgment and discretion in evaluating the project, the impacts, the alternatives, and the proposed mitigation measures prior to taking any final actions with regard to the project. Based on its evaluation to date, the County has completed the EIR in compliance with CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines, and the County’s CEQA Guidelines and other published guidelines for implementing CEQA.
