091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc iv I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 1. INTRODUCTION The Arizona Department of Transportation has commenced a study of the frontage roads (east- side and west-side) on Interstate 19 from the U.S. / Mexico border in Nogales, Arizona to the / Interstate 19 interchange in Tucson, Arizona. The study area includes the entire length of Interstate 19, and lies within the eastern portion of Pima County, Arizona, and the western portion of Santa Cruz County, Arizona. The existing frontage roads in the study area are primarily two-way facilities. The existing frontage roads, while serving an important local circulation function, are discontinuous in many areas within the study area.

1.1 Study Purpose The purpose of the I-19 Frontage Roads Study is to: ƒ Document existing (2007) traffic operations, safety, and land access conditions on the I-19 frontage roads. ƒ Identify traffic and safety deficiencies on the frontage roads for a 10-year planning horizon. ƒ Review recommendations for long-term improvements on the frontage roads made in other studies and plans, and document the status of the recommendations. ƒ Assess ADOT policies and jurisdictional perspectives on frontage roads relating to construction, maintenance, and operations. ƒ Develop a policy recommendation to ADOT for the function, construction, maintenance, and operations of the frontage roads. Example policy positions may include: (a) status quo, (b) construct frontage roads to establish continuity, or (c) turn-back to local jurisdictions. ƒ Recommend a 10-year program of multi-modal improvements. This may include projects such as shoulder widening, intersection improvements, speed-change lanes, access management strategies, or future needed studies by ADOT. The study will include a series of open houses and stakeholder meetings that will be facilitated and documented to identify issues, present transportation and policy recommendations, and obtain input.

1.2 Study Area The study area encompasses the east side and west side frontage roads on Interstate 19, from the U.S. / Mexico border to the Interstate 10 / Interstate 19 interchange in Tucson, Arizona, a distance of approximately 60 miles (95 km). Exhibit 1-1 displays the project vicinity. Exhibit 2-1 displays in more detail the study area roadways. A Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) comprised of agencies and jurisdictions within the study area has been established to participate in the study process. The following agencies are represented on the TAC: ƒ Arizona Department of Transportation (Transportation Planning Division, Tucson District, Baja Traffic Region, Communications and Community Partnership Division) ƒ Pima Association of Governments (PAG) 091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 1 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 ƒ Pima County Department of Transportation ƒ Southeastern Arizona Governments Organization ƒ Arizona Department of Public Safety ƒ Arizona State Land Department ƒ San Xavier District of the Tohono O’odham Nation ƒ City of Nogales ƒ Town of Sahuarita ƒ Santa Cruz County ƒ Greater Nogales/Santa Cruz County Port Authority ƒ Green Valley Community Coordinating Council ƒ Fresh Produce Association of the Americas

1.3 Purpose of Working Paper No. 1 Working Paper No. 1 presents available data and information on existing and future traffic conditions on I-19 frontage roads necessary to identify needs and deficiencies. Working Paper No. 1 is organized as follows: Chapter 1 describes the project, study area and study purpose. Chapter 2 presents an overview of recently completed and on-going transportation studies that have addressed transportation issues on frontage roads in the study area. These include the I-19 Corridor Study, the Southeast Arizona Regional Transportation Profile, and the Nogales/Santa Cruz Small Area Transportation Study. The status of the recommendations made in each of these studies is documented. Chapter 2 also summarizes ADOT and local jurisdiction relevant programming information and developer-led traffic impact studies. Chapter 3 documents existing traffic conditions in the study, including current daily traffic volumes, access management, traffic control, crash history and rates, and multimodal (transit, pedestrian facilities, bicycle) transportation facilities and use. Chapter 4 presents an environmental overview consistent with ADOT Environmental Overview Guidelines. The environmental overview includes a description of the affected physical and socioeconomic environment, and identifies potential environmental concerns within the study area. The focus of the environmental overview is on environmental conditions that may affect future projects on the frontage road system. Title VI and Environmental Justice considerations are addressed. Chapter 5 documents future traffic conditions on the I-19 frontage roads. Traffic projections for 2030 will be documented based on a review of other completed studies and future development. This information, combined with 2007 traffic data, will be used to derive traffic projections for an interim 10-year planning horizon (2017). Chapter 6 presents conclusions based on the data presented in Chapters 2 through 5.

Chapter 2 also summarizes relevant short and long-range programming information from ADOT, regional planning organizations, county, and local jurisdictions that affects the I-19 frontage roads. In addition, recommendations from traffic impact studies for a number of development projects affecting the frontage roads are summarized.

2.1 Studies and Plans

2.1.1 Interstate 19 Corridor Study, I-10 to Pima / Santa Cruz County Line, Corridor Report and General Plan, Kimley-Horn and Associates, October 2003 The purpose of the I-19 Corridor Study was to identify transportation needs and deficiencies along approximately 33 miles of I-19 in Pima County, Arizona and to develop recommendations for corridor rehabilitation to meet multi-modal transportation demands in the year 2030. A summary of recommendations and the status of the recommendations is provided below. The report notes that:

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 5 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 1. Small segments of frontage roads located near the Valencia Road and Duval Mine interchanges have been or are being turned over to local jurisdictions as part of the interchange reconstruction projects by ADOT. 2. The recommendations assume that the frontage roads south of Continental Road will remain under the jurisdiction of ADOT and are intended to improve traffic operational aspects of the I-19 corridor by providing an alternate route to the freeway during incidents or congestion. However, if it is determined through studies and coordination with Pima County that frontage roads are to be turned over to local control, those recommendations should be reconsidered. Recommendations for I-19 Frontage Roads

ƒ I-19 frontage roads between Continental Road and Arivaca Road primarily serve as local access roads to land development along the corridor. A study should be conducted in cooperation with Pima County to define the future function of the frontage roads and to determine whether these frontage roads will serve a function consistent with roadways on the State Highway System.

STATUS: The I-19 Frontage Roads Study is addressing this recommendation.

ƒ If frontage roads are to remain under ADOT jurisdiction, convert and reconstruct discontinuous two-way frontage roads between Continental Road and Canoa Road to continuous, one-way frontages. In conjunction with the conversion of the frontage roads, construct a new freeway crossing on the Camino Encanto roadway alignment.

STATUS: Pima County is currently conducting a Design Concept Report (DCR) for the east-side frontage roads between Canoa Road and Continental Road (Pima County Project Number 4INFRC, ADOT TRACS No. H7191 01C), a 4.6 mile segment. The east-side frontage road is being planned and designed as a two-lane, two-way roadway with paved shoulders. Improvements to existing frontage road intersections and improvements to the interchanges at Canoa Road and Continental Road are included in the project. An analysis of a new freeway crossing at Camino Encanto is not included in the project.

ƒ A recommendation for continuous, one-way frontage roads between Continental Road and Canoa Road received significant public opposition at the October 2002 open houses. Support was received for a new freeway crossing on Camino Encanto roadway alignment and construction of continuous one-way frontage roads. An ADOT design concept study should be conducted to evaluate alternatives to the above recommendations including alternatives for providing one-way frontage roads between Canoa Road and Camino Encanto crossing.

STATUS: See above. The Design Concept Report currently being developed in this area is assuming a two-way frontage road. A Camino Encanto crossing is not being analyzed as part of the project.

ƒ Frontage road design must incorporate ADOT design criteria if those frontage roads are to remain part of the State Highway System. Frontage road infrastructure design projects should

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 6 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 coordinate with local jurisdictions, integrate with local design criteria, and include a public information program to obtain public input during the design process.

STATUS: The I-19 Frontage Roads Study will assist in addressing this recommendation.

ƒ A concept of parallel, one-way frontage road system was recommended as not being feasible for I-19, north of Valencia Road, based on geometric, traffic operations, and land use access issues including recommendations for reconstructing the following interchanges to single point urban interchanges; Ajo Way, Irvington Road, and Drexel Road (new interchange). The Valencia Road interchange reconstruction to a single point urban interchange has been completed.

STATUS: No frontage roads are planned in this area. 2.1.2 City of Nogales, Unified Nogales / Santa Cruz County Transportation 2000 Plan, December 2000 The purpose of the Unified Nogales / Santa Cruz County Transportation 2000 Plan was to develop a transportation plan to address short-term (5-year), mid-term (10-year), and long-term (20-year) transportation needs for Nogales/ Santa Cruz County planning region. Short Term (2001-2005) Recommendations for I-19 Frontage Roads ƒ Conduct a corridor study for I-19 Frontage Road, Rio Rico to Western Avenue. ƒ Design and construct East I-19 Frontage Road, Rio Rico to Ruby Road.

Mid –Term (2006-2010) Recommendations for I-19 Frontage Roads ƒ No recommendations are made related to I-19 Frontage Roads

Long-Term (2011-2020) Recommendations for I-19 Frontage Roads ƒ Design and construct I-19 Frontage Roads, Rio Rico to Western Avenue. ƒ Design and construct I-19 Frontage Roads, Ruby Road to Rio Rico Road.

STATUS: A Design Concept Report was prepared for a two-lane west-side frontage road between Yavapai Drive and Calle Calabasas which would complete the frontage road connection between Rio Rico and Ruby traffic interchanges. The west-side frontage road from the Ruby Road interchange to its southern terminus near Country Club Road is currently under initial design by ADOT.

The east-side frontage road, Rico Rico Drive to Ruby Road, was designed and constructed by ADOT and included interchange improvements at Rio Rico Drive and Ruby Road. 2.1.3 City of Nogales, North-South / East-West Interconnectors and Frontage Roads Feasibility Analysis, January 2000 The purpose of the feasibility analysis was to conduct engineering field reviews and analyses necessary to develop planning-level corridor descriptions, corridor development process, and

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 7 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 associated cost estimates for three proposed roadway corridors in the Nogales urban area. One of the three corridors considered in this feasibility study included I-19 Frontage Roads from Ruby Road to Western Avenue. The study defined a process for further frontage road and corridor study. Recommendations for I-19 Frontage Roads ƒ The study recommended that new frontage roads should generally follow existing frontage road alignments. The study recommends that approximately 4 miles of new one-way frontage roads should be constructed on both sides of I-19 from Country Club Drive to Western Avenue.

STATUS: In the past, ADOT has conducted project assessments for west-side frontage road improvements and extension south of Country Club Drive however no projects are underway or programmed at this time for frontage roads in this area.

2.1.4 Town of Sahuarita, Arizona Small Area Transportation Study, September 1999 The purpose of the Town of Sahuarita, Small Area Transportation Study was to evaluate the transportation system requirements for Sahuarita, Arizona. The primary goals of the study were to define the current circulation system, evaluate its performance, forecast future needs, and prepare a plan for fulfilling the identified needs. The I-19 frontage roads within the town limits include the west-side frontage road that extends from Duval Mine Road south about one-half mile to Duval Road and the east-side I-19 frontage road which extends north and south of Duval Mine Road (Nogales Highway). Since the publication of that report, the Duval Mine Road interchange has undergone major reconstruction and the east-side frontage road has been removed south of Nogales Highway. The west-side frontage road has been turned-back to local (Town of Sahuarita) jurisdiction.

Recommendations for I-19 Frontage Roads ƒ Study recommended extending the west-side frontage Road north of Duval Mine Road to access developing property. ƒ Study recommended abandonment of east-side frontage road between Nogales Highway and Duval Road.

STATUS: The east-side frontage road was abandoned between Nogales Highway and Duval Road as part of the Duval Mine Road interchange reconstruction.

2.1.5 ADOT, Southeast Arizona Regional Transportation Profile Working Paper No. 2, Needs and Deficiencies, December 2005 The purpose of the Southeast Arizona Regional Transportation Profile, Working Paper No. 2, was to document future transportation system needs and deficiencies for the Southeast Arizona Regional Transportation Profile study area. The study area includes Cochise and Santa Cruz counties, as well as a portion of southeast Pima County. Final study recommendations are not yet available.

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 8 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 Recommendations for I-19 Frontage Roads Working Paper No. 2 summarizes several current and future projects related to interchange needs and deficiencies which were previously identified in the I-19 Corridor Study and the Unified Nogales/ Santa Cruz County Transportation 2000 Plan. Available documents do not identify any additional recommendations, beyond those already identified in other studies for I-19 Frontage Roads.

2.1.6 Pima County I-19 East Frontage Roads Design Concept Report, Canoa Ranch Drive to Continental Road, On-going (2007) Pima County Department of Transportation is currently conducting a design concept report for Interstate 19 east-side frontage roads between Canoa Ranch Road and Continental Road that will complete a frontage road gap between the these two interchanges. The project includes the design of a two-lane frontage road on the east side of I-19 between Continental Road and Canoa Ranch Drive, for a distance of 4.6 miles and safety and operational improvements at Continental Road. The resulting project, utilizing the preferred alternatives at Canoa Road, Esperanza Wash and Continental Road. will consist of the following design features: ƒ A roundabout east of I-19 at Canoa Road. ƒ A continuous 2-lane frontage road between the Canoa Interchange and the Continental Interchange. ƒ A new bridge over Esperanza Wash. ƒ A combined signalized intersection of the East Frontage Road, the I-19 northbound on and off ramps and Continental Road. ƒ Widening of Continental Road between the southbound on and off ramps and the Post Office, including widening of the underpass of I-19 to accommodate northbound dual left-turn lanes.

The project design is being administered by the Pima County Department of Transportation (PCDOT); however, both The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) and PCDOT will review all project deliverables. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) will also be involved in the review process.

Pima County has adopted a master plan for the Raúl M. Grijalva Canoa Conservation Park. This project is adjacent to the I-19 East Frontage Road project and consists of preservation and restoration of the Manning Era ranch headquarters. Visitor parking, a new orientation center and a new conference and dining center are also proposed. Access to Canoa Ranch will be provided as a part of the I-19 East Frontage Road project. The Canoa Ranch development is on the west side of I-19 adjacent to the Canoa interchange. This development is age-restricted and consists of approximately 2,100 homes, 360 condominiums, 170,000 square feet of commercial space and a resort consisting of 200 homes, 30 casitas and 98,000 square feet of commercial space along with a golf course and associated club house. This development is recommending a roundabout diamond interchange consisting of roundabouts east and west of I-19 at Canoa.

STATUS: The draft Design Concept Report was published in December 2007, and is currently under review. The frontage road is planned to be a two-lane, two-way roadway with paved shoulders. Paved shoulders are planned to be 4-feet wide which will accommodate bicyclists but not golf carts. Comments by Green Valley representatives have indicated that this is a major

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 9 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 disruption to multi-modal transportation widely used in Green Valley. I-19 divides the town and golf carts will not be able to cross the interstate at the Canoa Interchange, but they would be able to, if the paved shoulders were 6- feet wide as they are through out most of Green Valley.

2.1.7 I-19 Widening, I-10/ I-19 Interchange to San Xavier Road, on-going (2007) A design concept report and environmental assessment are currently being prepared for the ultimate widening of I-19, from the I-19/I-10 interchange to San Xavier Road. The project was originally scoped as an interim widening project from Ajo Way to San Xavier Road. The roadway widening plan calls for I-19 to be widened to four lanes in each direction from the I- 10 / I-19 interchange to Valencia Road. From the Valencia Road interchange to San Xavier Road, I-19 is planned to be widened to three through lanes in each direction. Collector-distributor roads are planned between San Xavier Road and Los Reales Road and northbound from Ajo Way to Eastbound I-10. STATUS: This project is ongoing.

2.1.8 Santa Cruz County, Preliminary Design Concept Report for Rio Rico West Frontage Road, Yavapai Drive to Calle Calabasas A design concept report was prepared for a new two-lane frontage road between Yavapai Drive and Calle Calabasas. This project would complete the frontage road connection between Rio Rico and Ruby traffic interchanges with I-19. The typical section includes one 12-foot travel lane in each direction, with seven foot paved shoulders. The intersection of the west-side frontage road and Yavapai Drive is planned to be signalized when the frontage road is constructed. STATUS: This project is programmed in the SEAGO Transportation Improvement Program to be constructed in 2012.

2.1.9 ADOT, I-19 West Frontage Road, Country Club Road to Ruby Road, Final Project Assessment, June 2005 The purpose of this project is to improve the safety and operation of the existing 2-lane west-side frontage road from Al Harrison Drive (located south of Country Club Road at MP 4.5) to Ruby Road (MP 7.7). The project scope includes two phases. The first phase consists of improvements to the intersection of the west-side frontage road and Country Club Drive. A roundabout is planned to be built. The second phase consists of improvements to the west-side frontage road from Al Harrison Drive to Ruby Road including reconstruction of the existing west-side frontage road, further improvements to the intersection of West Frontage road and Country Club Drive, and relocation of the south leg of the intersection of the west-side frontage road to line up with the northerly leg of the intersection of the West Frontage Road and Ruby Road. The north leg of the intersection of the west-side frontage road with Ruby Road will be widened to provide four lanes at the intersection to accommodate signalization. The report states that the City of Nogales is planning to annex the area south of Ruby Road within the next 5-years, and is willing to take ownership of the frontage road after it has been constructed. STATUS: This project has not been constructed.

This report requests a modification in access control for I-19 northbound only resulting from the frontage road being reconstructed between these interchanges. The project consists of relocating the I-19 northbound off-ramps for both Ruby Road and Rio Rico Drive to new locations at the mainline. Key features of the recommended alternative include: ƒ Ramps connected to the frontage Road except northbound on-ramp at Ruby Road. ƒ Two-way operation to north end of industrial park, one-way frontage road operation to Rio Rico Drive. ƒ Southbound connector between Ruby Road and frontage road.

The east-side two-way frontage road will be reconfigured and signed as one-way near the crossroads with relocated connections from the crossroad to the frontage road allowing two-way traffic through a large portion of the frontage road. The project also includes widening of the existing Ruby Road bridge. STATUS: This project has been constructed. 2.1.11 Santa Cruz County, Rio Rico Corridor Study, 2002 The purpose of this study was to identify an additional all-weather access roadway that connects development lying to the east of the Santa Cruz River with the Interstate 19 corridor. Alternatives were evaluated in an area bounded to the north by Bridge Road (north of Tubac), on the south by Rio Rico Drive, to the west by Interstate 19 and to the east by developments existing east of the Santa Cruz River and having current access to either Pendleton Road or Bridge Road. The Palo Parado crossing and alignment was the recommended alternative for a new all-weather crossing. STATUS: No action has been taken on constructing the recommended alternative. 2.1.12 Continental Road / I-19 Pedestrian Enhancement Grant Application, August, 2005 The Continental Road/I-19 Bicycle and Pedestrian Enhancement provides new bicycle lanes, sidewalks, and shade landscaping at the I-19 interchange with Continental Road. This project is located along Continental Road from La Cañada Drive to Abrego Drive.This project will link existing north/south bike lanes on La Cañada Drive and on Abrego Drive to recently completed bike lanes on Continental Road east of I-19 to White House Canyon Road, and will connect missing sections of sidewalk on both sides of I-19. The project will also link with a planned bike lane project by Pima County west of I-19, connecting to Pima College and also to recently completed bike lanes on Camino del Sol. This project will provide the first and only east/west bike route in the community and will increase pedestrian safety and access, particularly for persons with disabilities.

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 11 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 The project extends 0.55 miles through the underpass, includes construction of 6-foot bike lanes and 6-foot sidewalks that comply with ADA standards, and installation of shade trees to enhance the intersection as the “gateway” to Green Valley and to the Recreation Area. It also opens up a route for the 3,600 residents east of I-19 to more safely walk and bike to the shopping and recreational areas west of I-19. STATUS: This project was approved and ADOT is in the process of completing the design of the Continental Road/I-19 Bicycle and Pedestrian Enhancement Project. The project is planned to be advertised for construction in 2009. Improvements will be coordinated with the I-19 East Frontage Road project. 2.2 Agency Programs and Long Range Plans Agency programming documents were reviewed for projects on I-19 Frontage Roads. Programming documents from ADOT, Pima Association of Governments (PAG), Southeastern Arizona Governments Organization (SEAGO), Pima County, Santa Cruz County, and City of Nogales were reviewed. These programs are described as follows.

2.2.1 ADOT 5-Year Transportation Facilities Construction Plan (2008-2012) The ADOT 5-Year Plan (2008-2012) shows that a new frontage road is planned for construction from the Canoa traffic interchange to the Continental traffic interchange beginning in 2009. This is consistent with the I-19 East Frontage Roads Design Concept Report, Canoa Ranch Drive to Continental Road, described in Section 2.1.6.

2.2.2 PAG Five-Year Draft Regional Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) (2008- 2012) The Pima Association of Governments Draft Five-Year TIP (2008-2012) shows that beginning in 2008, the I-19 east-side frontage road from the Canoa Road traffic interchange to the Continental Road traffic interchange will be constructed with paved shoulders. This is a Regional Transportation Authority funded project. The I-19 / Irvington Road traffic interchange is planned to be reconstructed as a single point urban interchange (SPUI). Although frontage roads are not planned or existing in this section of I-19, this project listing is provided for general information.

2.3 Agency General Plans

2.3.1 Santa Cruz County General Plan (2004) A review of the Santa Cruz County General Plan identified the following recommendations regarding I-19 Frontage Roads: ƒ The I-19 Frontage Road at Tubac has been proposed as a candidate for a scenic route.

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 13 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 ƒ Federal and state highways need to be improved or maintained to accommodate traffic increases. This would include frontage road and interchange improvements along I-19 and maintenance issues on SR 82 and SR 83 to Parker Canyon Lake. ƒ To reduce the impacts from the developing areas on traffic flow on I-19, limited access should be maintained. This can be facilitated with improvement to and increased use of the frontage roads and ensuring connectivity to established interchanges.

2.4 Summary of Completed Traffic Impact Studies Over the past several years, several development projects have been proposed for construction along the I-19 corridor that could potentially significantly affect frontage roads operations. Available traffic impact studies for developments along the I-19 corridor were reviewed and are summarized in Exhibit 2-3. In addition to those developments for which traffic studies have been completed, other developments have been proposed but not yet approved. These include the following: ƒ Las Mesas: The Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors approved the Las Mesas Comprehensive Plan Amendment in December, 2007. Las Mesas, located south of Chavez Siding Road on the east side of I-19 is proposed to include over 2,600 homes. The development plan shows that new roads to the development will access the frontage roads (see rendering). The Santa Cruz County Community Development Department Staff report for the project stated that many as 26,000 vehicles per day could be added to the Chavez Siding interchange. Information materials provided by the developer states that significant improvements would be made to the interchange and frontage road that serve the development. Sopori Ranch: The developers of Sopori Ranch propose to construct approximately 6,000 homes. The Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors approved the Sopori Ranch Comprehensive Plan Amendment in December, 2007.

Development in the Pima Mine Road Area – Comments received from the Town of Sahuarita and the Tohono O’odham Nation indicated that the Town has interest in a new interchange south of Pima Mine Road and the potential development of large tracts of vacant land in that area. There

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 14 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 is also an interchange proposal by the Tohono O’odham Nation north of Pima Mine Road. Commercial or other development opportunities of these large land tracts may be fostered by consideration of a frontage road system in this area, which is of mutual benefit to the Town of Sahuarita and the Tohono O’odham Nation.

2.5 U.S. Border Patrol Permanent Inspection Station In November 2006, the U.S. Congress listed a federal prohibition on permanent U.S Border check points in the U.S. Border Patrol Tucson Sector. As a result, in November, 2006, the U.S. Border Patrol stopped moving a temporary checkpoint up and down I-19 and fixed it at kilometer 42. The Border Patrol also began planning to build an interim checkpoint and a more permanent in the Tucson Sector. In September 2007, the Border Patrol announced that they would locate the interim check point at kilometer 41.5 or 42, and will improve the existing temporary check point on I-19. Previously the Border Patrol had been planning to operate a checkpoint between kilometers 50 and 52, near Amado. The Border Patrol has also announced that the scale and size of the permanent check point would be dramatically reduced in size as compared to a check point in Laredo, Texas. As the U.S. Border Patrol continues to develop its plans, coordination will be required with ADOT, including consideration of frontage roads.

3.1 Frontage Road Overview The I-19 frontage roads are characterized by frequent discontinuities. For ease of discussion, the frontage roads were numbered into segments that are shown in Exhibit 3-1 and described in Exhibits 3-2 and 3-3 for the west-side frontage road and east-side frontage road segments, respectively. Approximately half of the I-19 mainline has accompanying frontage roads. Gaps in the frontage road system are summarized as follows: West-Side Frontage Road Gaps ƒ I-10 to Valencia Road – 3.9 miles ƒ Valencia Road to Duval Mine Road -15.7 miles ƒ South of Duval Mine Road to Continental Road - 3.8 miles ƒ South of Agua Linda Road to north of Chavez Siding Road - 0.73 miles ƒ South of Tubac Road to north of Palo Parado Road -1.75 miles ƒ Rio Rico to north of Ruby Road - 0.77 miles ƒ South of Country Club Road to Border - 4.5 miles

East-Side Frontage Road Gaps ƒ I-10 to north of Duval Mine Road – 18.95 miles ƒ Duval Mine Road to Continental Road – 3.90 miles ƒ South of Continental Road to north of Canoa Road – 1.2 miles ƒ South of Agua Linda to north of Chavez Siding Road – 0.91 miles ƒ South of Palo Parado to Peck Canyon Road – 1.42 miles ƒ South of Peck Canyon Road to north of Rio Rico Road – 2.2 miles ƒ North of Country Club Road to Border – the frontage road intersects Grand Avenue

In the northern section of the corridor, there are few frontage roads north of Duval Mine Road, with the exception of a short segment of frontage road at Valencia Road. At the south end of the corridor, the west-side frontage road ends south of Country Club Road in Nogales. A more detailed description of the frontage roads is provided in the following sections.

3.1.1 West-Side Frontage Roads The frontage roads on the west side of I-19 are two-way frontage roads and provide access to a wide variety of land uses. The function of the frontage roads on the west side of I-19 can be characterized as primarily providing local access. Near the interchanges with Valencia Road and Duval Mine Road, the frontage road segments are short and provide access to commercial areas. The longest frontage road segment is 13.2 miles between Continental Road and Agua Linda Road. The frontage road in this area serves Green Valley, Arivaca Junction and Amado. The three separate frontage road segments that are located between Chavez Siding Road and Country Club

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-07).doc 19 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 Road are approximately 5 to 6 miles in length. Speed limits vary widely on the west-side frontage road segments, ranging from 25 miles per hour to 55 miles per hour.

3.1.2 East-Side Frontage Roads The frontage roads on the east side of I-19 are primarily two-way roadways with the exception of a one-way frontage road segment between the Rio Rico and Ruby Road interchanges. This one- way operation is located north of the commercial activity centers which are largely served by the Ruby Road interchange. The frontage road system provides access to primarily commercial land uses on the south end of the corridor (particularly in the Ruby Road area) and residential land uses to the north. Speed limits vary widely on the East Frontage Road segments ranging from 25 miles per hour to 55 miles per hour.

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-07).doc 23 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 3.2 Laneage Nearly all sections of frontage road within the study area allow two-way traffic via a two-lane cross-section, with the exception of the East Frontage Road north of Ruby Road. The frontage road in this area serves numerous warehouses and trucking businesses near the interchange and briefly provides two lanes in each direction near the signalized intersection at Ruby Road. North of Ruby Road, the frontage road transitions to one lane in each direction with a center left turn lane. Further north, approximately 2.4 miles north of the interchange (north of Kipper Street), the roadway transitions to a one-way, one-lane frontage road to the Rio Rico Interchange. 3.2.1 Frontage Road / Interchange Intersections In all cases, the two-way frontage roads intersect crossroads at separate locations from the interchange ramps. Exhibit 3-4 shows the frontage road / ramp configurations at each of the major interchanges with frontage roads. Exhibit 3-5 shows the approximate separation in feet between the ramp and the frontage road intersections. As shown, the majority of the two-way frontage roads are separated by the freeway ramps by less than 600 feet. While this spacing is sufficient in rural areas where volumes are low, traffic operations at the interchanges can be expected to degrade as volumes increase. If signalization is needed at either the freeway ramps or at the frontage roads, traffic signals should be installed at both intersections and synchronized to prevent queuing problems between the intersections. Alternatively, existing two-way frontage roads can be converted to one-way frontage roads. One- way frontage roads are advantageous in that they can merge with freeway ramps, thus eliminating a frontage road / cross street intersection, and resulting in improved operations at the interchange area.

3.4 Frontage Road Level of Service Traffic operations analysis as described in the 2000 Highway Capacity Manual employs a level of service (LOS) analysis grading system to describe the operations of an intersection. In the case of roadway segments, it is quantified by a general capacity based on many factors including directional distribution and number of access points. The LOS grading system quantifies the operating conditions of an intersection or roadway segment in terms of quality of traffic flow and the perception of the motorist. Six levels of service are defined ranging from LOS A to LOS F. LOS A represents the best operating conditions and indicates free-flow conditions with little or no

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 27 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 delay experienced by motorists. LOS A, B, and C are customarily considered to be acceptable. Moderate delay is noticed by the motorists in LOS D. LOS E and LOS F are generally deemed unacceptable and represent roadways operating at or over capacity (stop and go conditions). ADOT establishes LOS D as the desired criteria for arterial roadways. HCS software package was utilized to approximate the level of service on selected study area frontage road segments. Those segments with the highest traffic volumes were analyzed. The segment level of service analysis helps to identify general capacity issues and serves as a screening tool for problem identification. The planning-level HCM analysis procedures incorporate existing traffic features such as peak hour volumes, peak hour factors, and directional distribution and roadway design features such as percent passing zones, access points per mile, terrain and segment lengths. The analysis (Exhibit 3-7) of selected frontage road segments indicates that all of the frontage road segments operate at LOS C or better during peak periods.

3.5 Access Management A field survey of study area frontage roads was conducted in July 2007. Access management conditions including existing driveways and access points along the entirety of the I-19 frontage roads were documented. Access density along with additional geometric and operational data is shown in Exhibit 3-8. Driveway Openings: There are a total of 417 access points along the 63.42 miles of frontage road that exists within the study area. This equates to approximately 6 to 7 access points per mile, or approximately one access point for every 800 feet of frontage road. The frontage roads segments with a density greater than this average are summarized in Exhibit 3-7, below:

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 28 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 As traffic volumes increase on the frontage roads, higher access point densities could lead to higher accident rates, particularly at locations where speeds are high.

Supporting Alternate Transportation Network: Another access consideration is the absence or presence of a supporting alternate transportation network that parallels the frontage road system. The lack of a supporting alternate roadway network increases reliance on the frontage roads. A supporting road network is particularly important in areas where the distance between interchanges is large. Frontage roads that are located in areas where the distance between interchanges is great increases the dependency on the frontage roads.

In addition, the lack of alternate routes makes conversion of frontage roads from two-way to one way to improve operations infeasible.

Areas with a supporting alternate road system are the Green Valley area (with exception of the East Frontage Road south of Calle Torres Blancas) and between Peck Canyon Road and Rio Rico Road area. Other areas have limited or no supporting road systems.

Even in areas with a supporting road system, it should be noted that the lack of a continuous frontage road system through Sahuarita has the potential to place/detour substantial traffic volume obligations on local Sahuarita streets. It should be recognized that the Town has certain limitations to handling traffic on Rancho Sahuarita Boulevard and a weight restricted bridge crossing on Pima Mine Road leading to Nogales Highway.

A summary of the distance between interchanges is summarized in Exhibit 3-9.

There are a total of 27 traffic controlled intersections along the frontage road system of which 24 are stop controlled. The three signal controlled intersections are listed below: ƒ I-19 @ Valencia Rd Traffic Interchange (west-side frontage road) ƒ I-19 @ Continental Rd Traffic Interchange (west-side frontage road) ƒ I-19 @ Ruby Rd Traffic Interchange (east-side frontage road)

3.7 Crash Summary Crash data was obtained for I-19 frontage roads for the five-year period beginning on January 1, 2001 and ending on December 31, 2005. Within the five year period from 2001 through 2005, a total of 246 crashes occurred on the thirty frontage road segments and sub-segments. The crash data was analyzed for the frontage road segments defined earlier in this chapter. In some cases, longer segments of frontage road were sub-divided in order to determine crash trends between major crossroads. A summary of the crash data for the West Frontage Road segments is shown in Exhibit 3-10 and for the East Frontage Road segments on Exhibit 3-11. Crash data was analyzed based on the manner of collision and injury severity. Crash rates and severity indices were calculated for each frontage road segment. The crash rate is defined as the number of crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) per year. The severity index provides a numerical value to the segment related to the severity of the crashes – the higher the number, the more severe the injuries. General findings of the analysis are provided below: ƒ The total number of crashes increased from 2001 to 2002, decreased from 2002 to 2003, nearly doubled from 2003 to 2004, and decreased again from 2004 to 2005. The highest number of crashes occurred in 2004 with 69 crashes accounting for 28 percent of all crashes. ƒ The predominant crash type for the frontage roads is single vehicle crashes, accounting for 35 percent of all crashes. Rear end crashes and angle crashes are the next most common types representing 24 percent and 18 percent respectively. Combined, these three crash types represent 77 percent of all crashes. ƒ Of the 246 total crashes over the five year period, 155 of them resulted in no injury, accounting for 63 percent of the total crashes. 35 crashes resulted in non-incapacitating injuries and another 32 resulted in possible injury. There were 10 crashes resulting in incapacitating injuries and 9 crashes were of unknown severity. Of the 5 reported fatalities, 3 of them occurred on the west frontage road between Continental Road and Duval Mine Waterline Road. Two of these fatal crashes included left-turning vehicles. ƒ The east-side frontage road segment from Continental Road to 0.2 miles south of Continental Road has the highest number of crashes with a total of 30 crashes over the five year period. The number of reported crashes for this segment decreased from 2001 to 2002 then remained about the same from 2002 to 2005 with an average of 6 crashes per year. ƒ Road segments with no crashes in the 5-year period were:

Arivaca Road to Agua Linda Road South of Palo Parado TI Aliso Springs Road to 2.2 miles south of Tubac TI

0.4 miles north of Palo Parado TI to Palo Parado TI

ƒ The road segment with the lowest crash rate (of segments having crashes) was on the west- side frontage road between Peck Canyon Road and Rio Rico Road, with a five year crash rate of 0.12 c/mev. The segment with the highest crash rate was located on the east-side frontage road segment between Agua Linda Road to 0.1 miles south of Agua Linda Road. While the rate was high (83.53 c/mev), this location only had one crash in the five year period. The rate was computed to be relatively high because of the short length of the segment. Other segments with relatively high crash rates were located on the east-side frontage road north of Canoa Road (crash rate of 3.91 c/mev ) and from the Continental traffic interchange to 0.2 miles south of the traffic interchange (2.58 c/mev). This later segment also had the highest number of crashes (30) in the five year period. ƒ The average severity index for all segments is 1.60. The severity indices range from 0.50 occurring on the west frontage road Segment 1 (I-19 / Valencia Road TI to 0.9 miles south of I-19/ Valencia Road traffic interchange ) to 3.40 occurring on west-side frontage road Segment 8 (north of Chavez Siding Road TI). There are nine segments with severity indices over the average and fifteen below the average.

These services all operate in Pima County. Currently there are no forms of public transit operated by Santa Cruz County or by any of the jurisdictions within the county. There are a few privately owned transportation companies in Santa Cruz County that primarily provide service from the U.S. / Mexico border to employment locations.

3.8.1 Sun Tran Sun Tran is the largest public transit provider in the Tucson metropolitan region. Based on information from the Pima Association of Governments, Sun Tran operates a network of 38 local and express bus routes using a fleet of 189 full-size buses. All vehicles are fully accessible to persons with disabilities and are equipped with bike racks for multi-modal connections. While Sun Tran does not operate on any of the I-19 frontage roads, it does serve several areas within the project study area, specifically on Valenica Road, Irvington Road, and Ajo Way. The Sun Tran system runs seven days a week, with service throughout the City of Tucson, South Tucson, and parts of Marana and unincorporated Pima County. In 2003, Sun Tran provided over 15 million passenger trips throughout the Tucson metro area. A map of Sun Tran routes in the I-19 Study area is provided in Exhibit 3-12. The Sun Tran system is administered by the City of Tucson, which owns all equipment and facilities, where the day-to-day operations are conducted by a private management firm and employee group.

3.8.2 Pima County Rural Transit Pima Rural Transit provides fixed route transit service to residents living in rural areas of Pima County. The system is designed to transport residents to jobs, major shopping centers, and medical facilities within the Tucson metro area by connecting with the Sun Tran system at major transfer centers. There are a total of six routes serving northwest Marana, Tucson Estates, the San Xavier area, the towns of Sells and Ajo, and towns of Sahuarita and Green Valley. Service is limited to regular business hours Monday thru Friday. The San Xavier Route also runs on Saturday. In 2006-2007 Pima County Rural Transit provided 104,326 passenger trips. The Sahuarita / Green Valley and the San Xavier routes serve areas within the vicinity of the project study area. One in particular, the Green Valley Circulator Loop, utilizes the West I-19 Frontage Road from Continental Road to Camino Encanto. Pima Rural Transit is administered by the Pima County Department of Transportation. Service is provided through individual multi-year contracts with private operators. It should be noted that the Regional Transportation Authority has funded construction of a park and ride lot near the I-19 Frontage Road / Continental Road intersection (westside of I-19).

3.9 Bicycle Facilities “ADOT Traffic Engineering Policies, Guidelines, and Procedures, March 2002” Section 1030, states that bicycles are permitted to operate on all State highways, including controlled access highways, except where an equally suitable route is available. As it pertains to the study area, bicycles are prohibited on I-19 from I-10 to Duval Mine Road [(I-19 MP 43.24 (km 69.59) (Duval Mine Road) to MP 63.09 (Jct. I-10)]. In this area, Nogales Highway and La Canada Drive serve as alternative routes.

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 36 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 Bicycles are permitted on the remaining extent of I-19 (Duval Mine Road to Nogales). On the frontage road system, there are no restrictions in use. Typically signs and markings are not provided for bicyclists on the frontage roads, such as “Share the Road” signs. Paved shoulders are not provided along the majority of the frontage road system. Based on field observations, usable paved shoulders (greater than one foot of pavement beyond the lane line) are limited to the following locations: ƒ West Frontage Road o Approximately 8-foot shoulders (both sides) south of Arivaca Road o Approximately 6- to 7-foot shoulders (both sides) north of Rio Rico Drive ƒ East Frontage Road o Approximately 8-foot shoulders (both sides) south of Arivaca Road o Approximately 8-foot shoulders (both sides) south of Tubac Road o Approximately 6-foot shoulder (northbound) and 2-foot shoulder (southbound) north of Ruby Road o Approximately 6-foot shoulder (northbound) and 2-foot shoulder (southbound) south of Ruby Road The design concept currently being developed for the East frontage road from Continental Road to Canoa Road includes shoulders that are 4-feet wide. The Santa Cruz County Bicycle Advocate Committee has developed a Master Plan for Multi-use lanes. The plan includes three elements: o Projects needed for connectivity o Projects needed for urgent safety, and o Projects needed for future growth – these are projects that are needed to maintain a high quality of life as population grows. There are I-19 frontage road projects recommended in the plan, as described in Exhibit 3-13. There is currently a proposed transportation enhancement project that is currently applying for funding. It is located at the intersection of I-19 and Esperanza Boulevard. The Esperanza Boulevard/I-19 Bicycle and Pedestrian Enhancement project would provide new bicycle lanes, sidewalks, benches, and shade landscaping on Esperanza Boulevard at the I-19 interchange. This project will link existing north-south bike lanes on La Cañada Drive west of I-19 to Abrego Drive east of I-19, and will provide ADA- compliant sidewalks through the underpass. It provides the third of four possible east-west bike routes in the community and will increase pedestrian safety and access, particularly for persons with disabilities. It opens a route for the residents to more safely walk and bike to the shopping and recreational areas on both sides of I-19, including to several Green Valley Parks and Recreation health and recreation centers. The project extends 0.4 miles through the underpass, includes construction of 6-foot wide bike lanes and 5-foot wide sidewalks that comply with ADA standards, and installation of shade landscaping and benches to enhance the corridor and to improve the walking and cycling environment.

Arizona revised statutes describe conditions under which NEV’s may be operated on public roads. The golf carts used for transportation in Green Valley are typically licensed and road legal. Arizona Revised Statutes describing golf cart and electric vehicle use are summarized below:

Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS) 28-101 includes definitions of "golf cart" and "neighborhood electric vehicle" (refer to http://www.azleg.state.az.us/ars/28/00101.htm):

23. "Golf cart" means a motor vehicle that has not less than three wheels in contact with the ground, that has an unladen weight of less than one thousand eight hundred pounds, that is designed to be and is operated at not more than twenty-five miles per hour and that is designed to carry not more than four persons including the driver. and 35. "Neighborhood electric vehicle" means a self-propelled electrically powered motor vehicle to which all of the following apply:

(a) The vehicle is emission free.

(b) The vehicle has at least four wheels in contact with the ground.

(c) The vehicle complies with the definition and standards for low speed vehicles set forth in federal motor vehicle safety standard 500 and 49 Code of Federal Regulations sections 571.3(b) and 571.500, respectively. Based on a search of Title 28, it seems to me that as long as a golf cart -- defined as a type of motor vehicle -- is registered with MVD (http://www.azleg.state.az.us/ars/28/02153.htm), it may be operated on highways (note that this section does not apply to, "a golf cart used in the operation of a golf course or only incidentally operated or moved on a highway").

(http://www.azleg.state.az.us/ars/28/00966.htm): 28-966. Neighborhood electric vehicles; speed; restrictions

A. A neighborhood electric vehicle shall not be operated at a speed of more than twenty-five miles per hour.

B. A neighborhood electric vehicle shall not be driven on a highway that has a posted speed limit of more than thirty-five miles per hour. This subsection does not prohibit a neighborhood electric vehicle from crossing a highway that has a posted speed limit of more than thirty-five miles per hour at an intersection.

C. A neighborhood electric vehicle shall have a notice of the operational restrictions applying to the vehicle permanently attached to or painted on the vehicle in a location that is in clear view of the driver.

4.1 Purpose of an Environmental Overview The environmental overview describes the existing social and environmental conditions along the I-19 corridor in Pima and Santa Cruz Counties and identifies potential environmental concerns for future development of the I-19 Frontage Roads within the planning area. Information presented within this environmental analysis is based on the existing data sources from local, county, state, and federal agencies. This analysis is not intended to meet the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).

4.1.1 Environmental Conditions Study Area For the purpose of the environmental overview the study area for the I-19 Frontage Road is defined as a 500 foot (ft) buffer of the I-19 right-of-way (R/W), from the I-10 Junction in Tucson, Arizona, to the United States/Mexico border at Nogales, Arizona. The environmental conditions study area is within the eastern portion of Pima County, Arizona, and the western portion of Santa Cruz County, Arizona.

4.2 Social and Environmental Opportunities and Constraints This environmental overview contains documentation and evaluation of the land-use within the study area, the socioeconomic environment, physical and natural environmental character, cultural resources, and section 4(f) resources in the study area. Existing environmental conditions within the study area have been evaluated to identify potential “fatal flaws”, obstacles, issues, and sensitive areas for future improvements. This analysis also addresses surveying, permitting, and agency coordination requirements that would need to be addressed in future studies prepared in accordance with NEPA.

4.2.1 Land Jurisdiction and Ownership Land jurisdiction refers to the authority to regulate land uses. Land ownership is identified as public or private ownership. The study area contains property within the western unincorporated portion of Santa Cruz County and the southeastern unincorporated portion of Pima County, as well as land areas incorporated into the City of Tucson, the City of Sahuarita, and the City of Nogales. Unincorporated areas dominate the central and southern portion of the study area with the incorporated Tucson land area occupying the northern most portion of the study area. The dominant unincorporated areas of Pima and Santa Cruz Counties are made up of private land ownership, State Trust land, and the San Xavier Indian Reservation. Land ownership is shown graphically in Exhibit 4-1. State Trust Land is located in the following five general areas: 1. Approximately 8 miles north of Milepost 0 (Nogales), east side 2. Approximately 18 miles north, between Rio-Rico and Tumacacori-Carmen, west side; 3. Between Tubac and Amado, west side; 4. Near the intersection of I-19 with Nogales Highway , in the Town of Sahuarita, east side; and 5. Between Sahuarita and Pima Mine Road, in the Town of Sahuarita, east side

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 42 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 The I-19 Frontage Road Study Area is located within 20,000 feet (ft) of a public-use airport identified as the Tucson International Airport (KTUS). The closest runway on KTUS is located within 10,000 ft of the project area. KTUS is open to the public and consists of three runways. Runway 11L/29R is 10,961 ft in length, runway 11R/29L is 8,408 ft in length, and runway 3/21 is 7,000 ft in length. All runways at KTUS exceed 3,200 feet, therefore notification to the FAA Administrator is required if construction operations within a 20,000 ft radius of KTUS exceed a 100:1 slope equation, based upon guidance standards as stipulated in 14 CFR Part 77, Objects Affecting Navigable Airspace, and explained in the Federal Aviation Administrator (FAA) Advisory Circular AC 70/7460-2K.

4.2.2 Socioeconomic Conditions Discussion of the socioeconomic environment of the study area includes an overview of the demographic composition of the area. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and related statutes assure that individuals are not excluded from participation in, denied the benefit of, or subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, sex, and disability. Executive Order (EO) 12898, Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations, issued February 11, 1994, requires that federally funded projects identify and address any disproportionately high and adverse human health and environmental effect on minority and low-income populations. The EO is a reaffirmation of the principles of the Title VI and adds the consideration of low-income to the minority, disabled, female, and elderly populations. The demographic composition of the study area was calculated using the United States Census Bureau, Census 2000 data sets. Census tracts (CT) and the block groups (BG) within these census tracts are large, relatively permanent statistical subdivisions that do not cross county boundaries. The size of the census tracts varies widely, depending on the density of settlement. Census tracts are delineated with the intention of being maintained over a long time, allowing statistical comparisons from census to census. Block groups are geographic subdivisions of census tracts; their primary purpose is to provide a geographic summary unit for census tract data. Each census tract contains a minimum of one block group and may have a maximum of nine block groups. For the purposes of this analysis, the demographic composition is limited to census tracts. The study area lies within a total of seventeen (17) census tracts; twelve (12) census tracts are within Pima County, Arizona and five (5) census tracts are within Santa Cruz County, Arizona. The boundaries of some census tracts extend beyond the study area and therefore depict the demographic characteristics for an area greater than the study area. The exact population and demographic characteristics of the I-19 Frontage Road study area may vary from the represented census tract data; continued evaluations at the block group level of analysis could provide a less varied representation of the demographic characteristics within the I-19 Frontage Road study area. It is also important to note that Tucson has the potential to experience significant seasonal changes in resident population, because many winter-only visitors temporarily populate Tucson and the surrounding communities. The seventeen (17) census tracts within the environmental conditions study area contain a total of 75,140 people (2000 Census).

4.2.2.1 Title VI Populations EO 12898 requires that federally funded projects identify and address any disproportionately high and adverse human health effects from environmental impacts on minority and low-income people. The United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) Order 5610.2 and the United States Census Bureau defines a racial minority person as:

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 43 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 ƒ Black (a person having origins in any of the black racial groups of Africa); ƒ Hispanic (a person of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race); ƒ Asian (a person having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, or the Pacific Islands); ƒ American Indian and Alaskan Native (a person having origins in any of the original people of North America and who maintains cultural identification through tribal affiliation or community recognition); ƒ Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander (a person having origins in any of the original peoples of Hawaii, Guam, Samoa, Tonga, Chamorro, Fiji, or other Pacific Islands).

Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Order 6640.23 defines disproportionately high and adverse effect on minority populations as an adverse effect that (1) is predominantly borne by a minority population; or (2) will be suffered by the minority population and is appreciably more severe or greater in magnitude than the adverse effect that will be suffered by the non-minority population and/or the non-low-income population. For purposes of the socioeconomic analysis for minority populations, disproportionate adverse impacts to minority populations is likely to occur when the minority population is either (1) 50 percent of the total population of that census tract or (2) is more than double the percentage of the respective minority population within the comparative counties. Within the study area the majority of the total population is Hispanic or Latino and comprises 62.2 percent of the population, with a total minority population of 67.6 percent (shown in Exhibit 4-2). The total minority population and the total Hispanic population within the study area are both greater than 50 percent of the total population for the study area, indicating the potential of disproportionate adverse impacts occurring to the minority populations. The total American Indian and Alaska Native population at 3.1 percent is higher than the percentage within Pima County and more than double the percentage within Santa Cruz County. However, with the exception of the Hispanic and American Indian/Alaska Native populations, no other individual minority groups within the total study area is greater than 50 percent or more than double the percentage for Pima County or Santa Cruz County. When analyzing individual census tracts within the study area, a total of twelve (12) census tracts (CT 23, CT 24, CT 25.01, CT 39.01, CT 39.02, CT 39.03, CT 9409, CT 9961.01, CT 9961.02, CT 9962, CT 9964.01, and CT 9964.02) indicated minority populations with the potential to result in disproportionate adverse impacts (See Exhibit 4-2 and Exhibit 4-3, Socioeconomic / Census Tract Information - Race). The shaded numbers in Exhibit 4-2 indicate the twelve (12) census tracts with percentages of minority populations that exceed 50 percent of the total population within the census track, or are more than double the percentage of the minority population within Pima or Santa Cruz County.

The following Title VI Related Statutes/Environmental Justice Population groups are defined as: ƒ Elderly: an individual 60 years of age or over. ƒ Disabled: a non-institutionalized civilian that has reported a sensory disability, physical disability, mental disability, self-care disability, go-outside-home disability, or employment disability. ƒ Low-income: a person whose median household income is at or below the US Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) poverty guidelines1. The 2007 DHHS poverty guidelines for a four person family is $20,650 2. ƒ Female head-of-household: any woman either living alone or not living alone who acts as the primary income provider.

For purposes of the socioeconomic analysis on Title VI Related Statutes / Environmental Justice, disproportionate adverse impacts to populations is likely to occur when the population is either (1) 50 percent of the total population of that census tract or (2) is more than double the percentage of the respective Title VI Related Statutes / Environmental Justice population within the comparative counties. Exhibits 4-4 and 4-5 summarize the population composition of elderly, low-income, disables and female head of household within the study area. The shaded numbers in Exhibit 4-4 indicate those percents that exceed the standards established for this socioeconomic analysis for disproportionate adverse impacts to Title VI Related Statutes / Environmental Justice populations within Pima County and Santa Cruz County. A summary of these data are: Elderly population ƒ Four (4) individual census tracts (CT) within the study area (CT 43.07, CT 43.15, CT 43.17, and CT 9961.01) displayed substantially higher percentages of elderly populations that either exceed more than double the total percent of Pima County and Santa Cruz County or were greater than 50 percent of the total population for the census tract. These four (4) census tracts may require further consideration for disproportionate adverse impacts. ƒ Reviewing the study area as a whole, elderly individuals within the study area comprise of 25.7 percent of the population, which is higher than both Pima County and Santa Cruz County elderly populations; however, the total elderly population within the study area does not exceed the standards established for this socioeconomic analysis. Low – Income households ƒ Five (5) individual census tracts within the study area (CT 23, CT 24, CT 9962, CT 9964.01, and CT 9964.02) displayed substantially higher percentages of low-income populations that are more than double the total percent of Pima County and may require further consideration for disproportionate adverse impacts.

Data from the U.S. Census Bureau, Census 2000, database was used to determine the “Ability to Speak English” for the population of individuals’ age five years and over. For purposes of the socioeconomic analysis on LEP populations, implementing LEP services is likely to be required when the LEP population is either (1) 20 percent of the total population of that census tract or (2) is more than double the percentage of the LEP population within the comparative counties. The U.S. Census Bureau classifies spoken languages into five categories as follows: ƒ English; ƒ Spanish or Spanish Creole; ƒ Other Indo-European Languages ƒ Asian and Pacific Island languages ƒ Other languages: includes Navajo, Other Native North American languages, Hungarian, Arabic, Hebrew, African languages, and other unspecified languages.

Exhibit 4-6 summarizes census data on Limited English usage populations. The shaded numbers indicate those percents of the LEP populations that exceed the standards established for this socioeconomic analysis. Exhibit 4-7 shows these data graphically. Key findings are: ƒ Five (5) individual census tracts (CT 23, CT 24, CT 9962, CT 9964.01, and CT 9964.02) displayed LEP populations within the study area that exceeded 20 percent of the total population within those census tracts and thereby would require considerations for LEP services. Additionally, four (4) individual census tracts (CT 25.01, CT 39.01, CT 39.03, and CT 9961.02) displayed LEP populations within the study area that were more than double the LEP percentage of Pima County and thereby may require considerations for LEP services. ƒ Evaluation of the nine (9) identified individual census tracts that exceed the established standards for this socioeconomic analysis indicates that Spanish is the dominate language of concern for the LEP populations. Of the LEP population that speak English “Not at All” or “Not Well” for the nine (9) identified individual census tracts, 99.1 percent are Spanish speaking, 0.4 percent speak Asian and Pacific Island ƒ Within the study area 13.4 percent of the total population speaks English “Not Well” or “Not at All”, which is higher than the total percentage for Pima County and lower than the total percentage for Santa Cruz County.

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 53 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 4.2.2.4 Socioeconomic Environment Conclusions The study area is predominantly Hispanic or Latino; the Hispanic population within the seventeen (17) census tracts is 62.2 percent. The total American Indian and Alaska Native population at 3.1 percent is more than double the percentage within Santa Cruz County and higher than the percentage within Pima County. Twelve (12) census tracts within the study area have been identified with race minority populations that exceed the standards set for this socioeconomic analysis and may require further consideration for disproportionate adverse impacts. The total elderly population within the study area is slightly higher than both counties and the total female head-of-household population within the study area is slightly higher when compared with Santa Cruz County and over three times greater than the female head-of-household population for Pima County. Review of individual census tracts within the study area displayed that standards were exceeded with the elderly population, the low-income population, and the female head-of-household population. Four (4) individual census tracts, CT 43.07, CT 43.15, CT 43.17, and CT 9961.01, displayed substantially higher percentages of elderly populations that either exceed more than double the total percent of Pima County and Santa Cruz County or were greater than 50 percent of the total population for the census tract. Five (5) individual census tracts, CT 23, CT 24, CT 9962, CT 9964.01, and CT 9964.02, displayed substantially higher percentages of low-income populations that exceed more than double the total percent of Pima County. All seventeen (17) individual census tracts displayed substantially higher percentages of female head-of-household populations that exceed more than double the total percent of Pima County. The total disabled population within the study area, along with the individual census tract populations for disabled individuals, is comparable to the percentages of Pima County and Santa Cruz County and does not exceed the standards established for this socioeconomic analysis. The percent of LEP individuals, at 13.4 percent, is higher than the total percentage for Pima County and lower than the total percentage for Santa Cruz County. However, five (5) individual census tracts, CT 23, CT 24, CT 9962, CT 9964.01, and CT 9964.02, displayed LEP populations within the study area that exceeded 20 percent of the total population with those census tracts and thereby, would require considerations for LEP services. The dominate concentration of LEP individuals within the study area are Spanish speaking, at 99.1 percent.

4.2.3 Natural Environment This section describes the existing natural environment within the study area in terms of wildlife, sensitive species, plants, water resources, visual character, air quality, noise, and hazardous material concerns. The inventory of the natural environment of the study area consisted of gathering data and information from various local, state, and federal agencies, including the Arizona Game and Fish Department (AGFD) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). The characteristics of the natural environment within the study area were also identified by field surveys and aerial photographs (Google Earth, 2007).

4.2.3.1 Biotic Communities The study area is located within the Arizona Upland subdivision of the Sonoran Desertscrub Biotic Community and within the Semidesert Grassland Biotic Community. The Sonoran Desertscrub Biotic Community is observed in the northern portion of the study area from the I-19 junction with I-10 to just south of the town of Green Valley. The Semidesert Grassland Biotic Community is observed in the central to southern portion of the study area where it blends and transitions with the Sonoran Desertscrub Biotic Community just south of the town of Green Valley to the United States/Mexico border. The study area also crosses urbanized settings, which influences the distribution and quality of

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 54 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 vegetation. The characteristics of the natural environment were also identified based on aerial photographs (Google Earth, 2007) of the study area. Numerous ephemeral washes occur throughout the study area which contain xeroriparian habitat. In addition, there are intermittent and/or perennial waters with associated riparian habitat that cross our study corridors. Some of the major drainages include: Julian Wash, Airport Wash, Santa Cruz River, Demetrie Wash, Sopori Wash, and Potrero Creek. Biotic communities within the study area are described in more detail below and are depicted in Exhibit 4-8, Natural Vegetation. Sonoran Desertscrub (Arizona Upland Subdivision) The Sonoran Desertscrub community is comprised of a large arid region that is centered at the head of the Gulf of California and encompasses the western half of the state of Sonora, Mexico, as well as large areas in southeastern California, southwestern Arizona, and the Baja California peninsula. There are seven recognized subdivisions, all of which are derived from the subtropical species. Common species in this community include blue paloverde (Cercidium floridum), yellow paloverde (Cercidium microphyllum), desert ironwood (Olneya tesota), mesquites (Prosopis spp.), cat-claw acacia (Acacia greggii), crucifixion thorn (Canotia holacantha), cholla (Opuntia spp.), saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea), pincushion cacti (mammillaria spp.), and barrel cacti (Ferocactus spp.). Semidesert Grassland Semidesert grassland adjoins and largely surrounds the Chihuahuan desert in Texas, New Mexico and much of Mexico, and is only in some areas in southeast Arizona. Common species in this community include: black grama (Bouteloua eriopoda), slender grama (Bouteloua filiformis), Chino grama (Bouteloua breviseta), spruce top grama (Bouteloua chondrosioides), hoe grass (Muhlenbergia porteri), several three-awn species (Artistida spp.), curly mesquite (Hilaria belangeri), slim tridens (Tridens muticus), pappus grass (Pappophorum vaginatum), and tanglehead grass (Heteropogon contortus). Field observations within the study area revealed that the native Semidesert Grassland Biotic Community has been significantly displaced in the Tucson area as a result of urban development. The vegetation within the area of Tucson is predominately urban ornamental. Additionally, field observations along the I-19 corridor revealed that the native Semidesert Grassland Biotic Community has been moderately displaced in the Green Valley and Nogales areas and slightly displaced in the Amado, Tubac, and Rio Rico Northwest areas as a result of urban and residential developments. The vegetation within these towns is a combination of natural vegetation and urban ornamental. Disturbances to roadside vegetation should be kept to the minimum disturbance necessary for construction operations.

4.2.3.2 Wildlife Numerous washes occur throughout the project area which contain xeroriparian vegetation. The most common wildlife found within the study area includes, but not limited to: black-tailed jack rabbit (Lepus californicus), spotted ground squirrel (Spermophilus spilosoma), hispid pocket mouse (Perognathus hispidus), mourning dove (Zenaida macroura), road-runner (Geococcyx californianus), raven (Covus cryptoleucus), cactus wren (Campylorhynchus brunneicapillus), and various lizard species. Xeroriparian habitat associations with drainages provide the best habitat value for wildlife by providing food, shelter, and travel corridors.

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 56 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 The Arizona Wildlife Linkages Assessment (2006) was conducted as a proactive effort to preserve and potentially restore habitat connectivity within the state of Arizona. The purpose of the assessment was to identify habitat blocks that consist of important wildlife habitat; fracture zones that separate habitat blocks; the potential linkage zones between, within, and through the habitat blocks and fracture zones that can be identified as areas critical to wildlife movement; and the factors threatening to disrupt the potential wildlife linkage zones. The objective of the assessment is to maintain natural ecosystems, habitat connectivity, and wildlife populations and to address habitat fragmentation through a comprehensive, systematic approach. The Arizona Wildlife Linkages Assessment has identified four potential linkage zones within the I-19 study area which are: ƒ Linkage 87, Tucson Mountains – San Xavier (San Robles Pass) ƒ Linkage 92, San Xavier – Sierrita – Santa Rita ƒ Linkage 93, Tumacacori – Santa Rita ƒ Linkage 152, Central Arizona Project Canal.

Two of the four identified linkage zones (Linkage 92 and 93) are of high priority for consideration containing both a high ecological value and the most pressing threats to the existing linkage. Additional studies conducted within the I-19 study area include the Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan (Draft) and the Pima County Multi-species Conservation Plan (Draft). The Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan (SDCP) has integrated all natural resource protection and land use planning activities into one management plan; fulfilling the need for a science-based conservation plan, an update of the comprehensive land use plan, and a multiple species conservation plan to address the protection of endangered species, in compliance with federal regulations. Within the I-19 Frontage Road study area the SDCP identified important riparian areas, critical landscape linkages, and a 4,884 acre Pima County owned reserve, the Canoa Ranch. Furthermore, the Pima County Multi-Species Conservation Plan identified areas of high biological value and critical landscape connections within the I-19 Frontage Road study area. Consideration of the identified wildlife linkages and value for connectivity should be conducted as the I- 19 Frontage Road improvements are designed. Further studies and/or surveys for wildlife may be required as the I-19 frontage road plan is developed to assess the potential impacts to wildlife, habitats, and linkages.

4.2.3.3 Special Status Species and Critical Habitat For purposes of this document special status species include those that are federally listed as threatened, endangered, proposed, and candidate for listing under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. A list of federally listed threatened, endangered, proposed, and candidate species as well as state-listed wildlife of concern in Arizona which may occur within the study area was prepared from information provided by the AGFD and the USFWS. These lists are provided in Appendix A-1 and A-2. The study area traverses through the San Xavier Indian Reservation. The San Xavier Nation maintains a list of species of special concern that would need to be addressed for future projects on the reservation. Critical habitat is the specific geographic areas, whether occupied by listed species or not, that are determined to be essential for the conservation and management of listed species, and that have been formally described in the Federal Register. Critical habitat only applies to federally listed, endangered or threatened, species. No designated critical habitat, as reported by the AGFD on-line review tool, occurs within the study area for any of the species on the USFWS list. The burrowing owl, southwestern willow flycatcher, and the yellow-billed cuckoo, all protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 and the Endangered Species Act of 1973, are known to occur

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 57 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 within the study area. The I-19 corridor contains large areas of bare ground and undeveloped vacant land that provide suitable habitat for western burrowing owls (Athene cunicularia hypugaea) along with adjacent and transecting riparian corridors with brushy vegetation that provides suitable habitat for western yellow-billed cuckoos (Coccyzus americanus occidentalis) and southwestern willow flycatchers (Empidonaz traillii extimus). The Gila topminnow (Poeciliopsis occidentalis occidentalis) and the Pima pineapple cactus (Coryphantha scheeri var. robustispina), protected under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, are also known to occur within the study area. The I-19 corridor contains: areas of desert grasslands with alluvial hillsides in rocky, sandy soils that provide suitable habitat for the Pima pineapple cacti; and adjacent and transecting riparian corridors provides suitable habitat for the Gila topminnow. Potential impacts to the western burrowing owl, southwestern willow flycatcher, western yellow-billed cuckoo, Gila topminnow, and the Pima pineapple cacti should be evaluated during the environmental clearance process.

4.2.3.4 Noxious Weeds Invasive and noxious weeds are an increasing problem. Invasive and noxious weeds rapidly displace desirable plants that provide habitat for wildlife and food for people and livestock. Invasive and noxious weeds are plants that are not native to Arizona and were introduced accidentally, unintentionally, and/or intentionally. Noxious weeds are recognized on state and federal lists and are generally considered those that are exotics and/or negatively impact agriculture, navigation, fish, wildlife, and public health. Since the 1900s, weedy annuals such as cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum), Russian thistle (Salsola spp.), and tumble mustard (Thelypodiopsis spp.) have become established in areas where grazing has greatly reduced the native vegetation. Invasive weeds such as those listed previously can alter fire regimes. Under Executive Order 13112, dated February 3, 1999, projects that occur on federal lands or are federally funded must be: “subject to the availability of appropriations, and within Administration budgetary limits, use relevant programs and authorities to: i) prevent the introduction of invasive species; ii) detect and respond rapidly to, and control, populations of such species in a cost-effective and environmentally sound manner; iii) monitor invasive species populations accurately and reliably; and iv) provide for restoration of native species and habitat conditions in ecosystems that have been invaded.” A survey will be required by a qualified noxious weed authority to determine if any noxious weeds are present within the study area boundaries.

4.2.3.5 Water Resources The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) regulates the discharge of dredge and fill material into waters of the U.S. under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Any activity that will discharge dredge or fill material into jurisdictional waters, including wetlands, will require a Clean Water Act Section 404 Nationwide Permit (NWP), following the completion of a jurisdictional delineation. A jurisdictional delineation is the process of identifying the characteristics and boundaries of waters of the U.S. within a given geographic area, and must receive final approval by the USACE. There are ephemeral drainage systems within the study area. In general, ephemeral drainage systems are determined by the USACE to be jurisdictional waters. If it is anticipated that work will take place within or adjacent to potential waters of the U.S., a jurisdictional delineation for the study area should be completed and submitted to the USACE for concurrence. Following USACE-approval of the jurisdictional delineation, the project should be reviewed to determine if a Section 404 permit is necessary. Activities that may require a permit include, but are not limited to: construction of new

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 58 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 roads; widening of existing roads; construction or expansion of bridges;, installation of corrugated-metal pipe and concrete box culverts; installation of riprap; and maintenance activities within a drainage system. If impacts are expected to be below 0.5 acre for each identified water of the U.S. (i.e. each individual wash system), a Nationwide Permit (NWP) Number 14 would likely be required. If impacts at a single crossing or to any individual drainage system exceed 0.1 acre, pre-construction notification must be provided to the USACE, and the project must be authorized by the USACE prior to the start of construction. If impacts at a single crossing or to any individual drainage system do not exceed 0.1 acre, pre-construction notification is generally not required, but may be required if a “may effect” determination is made for a threatened or endangered species and/or the presence of any historic property determined to be eligible, or which may be eligible, for listing on the National Register of Historic Places is identified. If impacts at any single crossing or to any individual drainage system exceed 0.5 acre, a Section 404 Individual Permit would be required. The Individual Permit process requires a more detailed permit application, and the USACE review period is typically much longer than that of a Nationwide Permit. Improvements within or near waters of the U.S. require Section 401 Water Quality Certification. In certain cases, projects are Conditionally Certified and it is not necessary to submit an application for certification to the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ); however, the Section 401 conditions listed in the applicable Section 404 permit must be adhered to in order to qualify for Conditionally Certified. Linear transportation projects are generally Conditionally Certified. The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) is a national program under Section 402 of the Clean Water Act that regulates discharges of pollutants from point sources into waters of the U.S. Arizona has been delegated authority from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to implement the permit program within the state. The state program is referred to as the Arizona Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (AZPDES). The AZPDES permit program requires an AZPDES general permit for construction activities that disturb one or more acres of land. A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SW3P) must be prepared as a part of the AZPDES permit. A review of Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) indicates 100-year floodplains are located within the study area (See Exhibit 4-9, 100-year & 500-year Floodplains). The identified floodplains within the study area are classified Zone A and are recognized as areas with a determined base flood elevation. Coordination with the floodplain manager and FEMA would be required if impacts are proposed within the flood zone. Any construction activity located within a delineated floodplain and watercourses or contributing watersheds (with flows greater than 200 cubic feet per second during a 100-yr flood event) must adhere to the local Pinal County Floodplain Ordinance and the Santa Cruz County Floodplain and Erosion Hazard Ordinance.

4.2.3.6 Prime and Unique Farmlands The study area is predominately undeveloped natural desert with residential and commercial developments and existing urban areas throughout the corridor. Agricultural lands were observed within the study area during field surveys and on aerial photographs (GoogleEarth, 2007). Prime farmland is land that has the best combination of physical and chemical characteristics for producing food, feed, fiber, forage, oilseed, and other agricultural crops with a minimum input of fuel, fertilizer, pesticides, and labor, and without intolerable soil erosion. Unique farmland is land other than prime farmland that is used for the production of specific high value food and fiber crops. High value food crops include but are not limited to citrus, tree nuts, olives, avocados, fruit, and vegetables. Prime and unique farmland has the soil quality, growing season, and moisture supply needed to economically

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 59 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 produce sustained high yields and/or high quality of crops when treated and managed, including water management, according to acceptable farming methods. A review of the U.S. Department of Agricultural Soil Surveys for Pima County and Santa Cruz County and the U.S. Census Bureau Reference Map for Urban Areas indicates that there is prime farmland and unique farmland within the I- 19 Frontage Road study area. In accordance with the Farmland Protection Policy Act a farmland conversion impact rating (Form NRCS-CPA-106) would be required if right-of-way is to be acquired from any prime or unique farmlands within the study area.

South of Tucson the visual character returns to a relatively undisturbed natural desert with scattered mountains and ridges interspersed by the small towns and communities of Green Valley, Amado, and Tubac. The rural setting within the study area is disrupted within these towns and communities as encroaching subdivisions and commercial developments increase. The Santa Cruz River parallels much of the I-19 corridor to the east and provides views of moderate to dense green riparian vegetation. Additionally, agricultural fields can be observed within the study area adjacent to the Santa Cruz River corridor. The visual character in the south of the study area is reflected by the residential and commercial buildings with interspersed mountain ridges of the border town of Nogales. Due to the low topographic relief, views throughout the study area of the surrounding mountains and the adjacent river are unimpeded and mountain views extend for more than 50 miles.

4.2.5 Air Quality The Clean Air Act (CAA) Amendments and NEPA require that air quality impacts be addressed in the preparation of environmental documents. The level of effort used to evaluate these impacts may vary from a simplified description to a detailed analysis depending on factors, such as the type of document to be prepared, the project location and size, the air quality attainment status of the area, and the state air quality standards. Under the CAA, areas are classified for the degree of ambient air pollution existing at the time of the 1990 amendments as to whether they attain the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) or are in nonattainment of the standards as described below. As required by the CAA, NAAQS have been established for the following major air pollutants: carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particulate matter smaller than 10 microns (PM10), particulate matter smaller that 2.5 microns (PM2.5), sulfur dioxides, and lead. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that affects the cardiovascular system. Vehicular emissions are a major source of carbon monoxide. Ozone is created through a complex reaction of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen with sunlight as a catalyst. Ozone affects the respiratory system; and vehicle emissions, power plants, and service stations are major sources. High concentrations of ozone are common in the Tucson area during the summer. Nitrogen dioxide is a gas with a yellowish orange to reddish brown appearance, depending on its concentration, which impairs the respiratory system. Major sources of nitrogen dioxide are power plants and vehicle emissions. Particulate matter refers to small aerosols that may cause irritation and damage to the respiratory system. Vehicle emissions and the resuspension of road dust by vehicular activity are common sources. Sulfur dioxide is a colorless gas frequently derived from the combustion of sulfur-containing fuels. It primarily affects the respiratory system and major sources are coal- and oil-fired power plants. Lead and its compounds damage the cardiovascular, renal, and nervous systems. Before the harms of lead were known it was commonly used as an additive in gasoline. The primary source of airborne lead is vehicular emissions associated with the use of leaded gasoline. The CAA banned the sale of leaded fuel for use in on-road vehicles in 1996, however the CAA allowed leaded fuel to be sold for off-road uses until the year 2008. Off-road uses include aircraft, racing cars, farm equipment, and marine engines. These standards have also been established as the official ambient air quality standards for the state of Arizona. The “primary” standards have been established to protect the public health. The “secondary” standards are intended to protect the nation’s welfare and account for air pollutant effects on soil, water, visibility, materials, vegetation, and other aspects of the general welfare. In 1987, the standard for particulate matter was revised by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The EPA defines total suspended particulate matter (TSP) as aerosols with diameters ranging from 0.1

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 62 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 microns up to approximately 30 microns in size, and include fine, coarse, and super coarse particles. Aerosols with aerodynamic diameters of 10 microns or less are referred to as PM10. In July 1997, EPA revised the standards for both particulate matter and ozone. For particulate matter, the methods for the determination of exceedences were revised and the PM10 standard was revised by adding standards for particulates with diameters less than or equal to 2.5 microns and are referred to as PM2.5. For ozone, the 1-hour standard was replaced with an 8-hour standard. In addition, the standard for concentration of ozone was lowered from 0.12 ppm to 0.08 ppm, and the method for the determination of exceedences was also revised. The effective date of those final rules was September 16, 1997.

4.2.5.1 Nonattainment Areas The CAA Amendments of 1990 authorized the EPA to designate areas as nonattainment, and to classify them according to their degree of severity. This classification initiates a set of control requirements designed to achieve attainment by a specified date. A nonattainment area is an area in which compliance with the NAAQS has not been established for one or more pollutants. States that fail to attain the NAAQS for any of the criteria pollutants are required to submit State Implementation Plans, which outline those actions that will be taken to attain compliance. The study area is within one (1) non- attainment area and one (1) maintenance area: a non-attainment area for PM10 has been determined for the Nogales area; and a maintenance area for CO2 has been determined for the Tucson area.

4.2.5.2 Conformity Since 1977, federal agencies and Metropolitan Planning Organizations have been required by Section 176c of the CAA to ensure that all transportation projects conform to the approved air quality State Implementation Plans. The CAA enacted in 1990 defined conformity to a State Implementation Plan as meaning the conformity to a State Implementation Plan’s purpose of eliminating or reducing the severity and number of violations of the NAAQS. The conformity determinations for federal actions related to transportation projects must meet the requirements of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Parts 51 and 93.

The study area is within the Nogales non-attainment area for PM10 and the Tucson maintenance area for CO2, which have transportation control measures in the State Implementation Plans and Federal Implementation Plan. Projects within the I-19 Frontage Road study area will need to be included in an approved transportation improvement plan for at least one year, and no more than three years, prior to construction. The Transportation Improvement Plan will have to be approved by the FHWA and EPA as conforming to the State Implementation Plan, and the Federal Implementation Plan. Construction related disturbance of the soil by heavy equipment would increase fugitive dust and, if uncontrolled, would affect local air quality. In addition, construction-related traffic delays, combined with exhaust emissions from constructed-related equipment, may elevate levels of pollutants. Such impacts would be temporary and would be eliminated once construction is complete. Any construction activity located within Pima County must adhere to the local air quality rules and ordinances, including Pima County Code Title 17.

4.2.6 Noise Noise, defined as unwanted or excessive sound, is an undesirable by-product of our modern way of life. While noise emanates from many different sources, transportation noise is perhaps the most pervasive and difficult source to avoid in society today. The Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1970 mandates the FHWA to develop noise standards for mitigating roadway traffic noise. The FHWA regulations for

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 63 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 mitigation of roadway traffic noise in the planning and design of federally-aided roadways are contained in Title 23 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations Part 772. The regulations require the following during the planning and design of a roadway project: 1) identification of traffic noise impacts; examination of potential mitigation measures; 2) the incorporation of reasonable and feasible noise mitigation measures into the roadway project; and 3) coordination with local officials to provide helpful information on compatible land use planning and control. The regulations contain noise abatement criteria, which represent the upper limit of acceptable roadway traffic noise for different types of land uses and human activities. The regulations do not require that the abatement criteria be met in every instance. Rather, they require that every reasonable and feasible effort be made to provide noise mitigation when the criteria thresholds are approached or exceeded. ADOT has adopted a State Policy, the Noise Abatement Policy for Federal Aid Projects, which is consistent with the FHWA Highway Traffic Noise Analysis and Abatement Policy and Guidance. These policies outline noise impacts. A traffic noise impact occurs when either of the following conditions occurs: ƒ The predicted traffic noise level approaches or exceeds the FHWA noise abatement criteria (NAC) shown in Exhibit 4-10. ADOT defines approach as being 3dBA below the appropriate NAC. ƒ The predicted traffic noise level substantially exceeds the existing noise level. ADOT defines substantial in this context as 15dBA or greater.

If potential traffic noise impacts are identified, noise abatement is considered and implemented, if it is found to be both reasonable and feasible. The views of the impacted residents are a major consideration in reaching a decision on the reasonableness of abatement measures to be provided. When noise abatement measures are being considered, every reasonable effort is made to obtain substantial noise reductions. Substantial noise reductions have been defined by State highway agencies to typically range from 5 to 10 dBA. Roadway construction noise is often viewed by the public as being short term and a necessary price for growth and improvement. Roadway construction noise should generally be addressed in a qualitative, rather than quantitative, manner commensurate with the scope of a roadway project. Construction noise levels may be predicted, if warranted. If potential construction noise impacts are identified, a common sense approach should be utilized to incorporate appropriate abatement measures into a roadway project.

Category B sensitive noise receivers sites within the I-19 study area include existing and planned residential areas, recreational open space, and churches. Undeveloped lands are represented by activity Category D. During subsequent environmental documentation activities for the study area, ambient noise levels may need to be monitored at specific locations. The future noise quality for the study area would need to be evaluated against the existing noise data to conform to the FHWA Highway Traffic Noise Analysis and Abatement Policy and Guidance and ADOT Noise Abatement Policy. In addition, local noise ordinances will need to be evaluated in considering future project development.

4.2.7 Hazardous Materials Hazardous materials are regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) pursuant to the Federal Resources Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). The EPA implements CERCLA, commonly known as the Superfund, and its amendments, the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) of 1986. In order to evaluate the environmental concerns associated with hazardous materials and solid waste landfills, a preliminary evaluation was performed of the permitted and non-regulated hazardous materials sites and solid waste facilities located within or immediately adjacent to the study area. A review of the various state and federal databases for hazardous materials was completed for the study area. Sources consisted of: ƒ ADEQ Underground Storage Tanks (UST); ƒ ADEQ Leaking Underground Storage Tanks (LUST); ƒ ADEQ Hazardous Material (HazMat) Incident Logbook (HMIL); ƒ Federal Superfund Sites to include National Priority List (NPL), Department of Defense (DoD) Sites and Arizona Water Quality Assurance Revolving Fund (WQARF); ƒ Arizona Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities (TSDF) and Solid Waste Landfills (SWLF).

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 65 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 4.2.7.1 Underground Storage Tanks The results of the underground storage tank (UST) database search indicate that twenty-five (25) sites with UST records are located within or adjacent to the I-19 Frontage Road right-of-way. The results are summarized in Appendix B-1.

4.2.7.2 Leaking Underground Storage Tanks The results of the leaking underground storage tank (LUST) database search indicate that ten (10) sites with LUST case files are located within or adjacent to the I-19 Frontage Road right-of-way. The results are summarized in Appendix B-2.

4.2.7.3 Hazardous Material Incident Logbook Six (6) hazardous material incidents occurred within or immediately adjacent to the study area, as recorded in the Hazardous Material Incident Logbook. The records are summarized in Appendix B-3.

4.2.7.4 Superfund Sites Superfund Sites include the following; WQARF sites, Potential WQARF sites, National Priority List (NPL) sites, Department of Defense (DoD) sites, and Formerly Used Defense (FUD) sites. According to the ADEQ Superfund Programs Section and the ADEQ Interactive GIS eMap website, one (1) NPL site was identified within one mile of the study area. The identified NPL site is the Raytheon Air Force Plant #44, Tucson Airport, located in South Tucson. No other superfund sites were identified within one mile of the study area.

4.2.7.5 Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities and Solid Waste Landfills According to the Arizona Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities List and ADEQ Interactive GIS eMap website, one (1) hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facility is located within or immediately adjacent to the study area. The identified hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facility is the Conn-Selmer Inc. facility, located in Nogales, AZ. Additionally, two (2) solid waste landfills are located within or immediately adjacent to the study area. The two identified landfills include the Rio Rico Municipal Landfill in Santa Cruz County and the Sahuarita Municipal Landfill in Pima County.

4.2.7.6 Other Environmental Sites and Facilities According to the ADEQ Interactive GIS eMap website there is one (1) Brownfield located within 1 mile of the study area. The Brownfield identified within the study area is the Valencia Power Plant located in Nogales, AZ.

4.2.7.7 Hazardous Materials Conclusion Identified hazardous material sites located within or immediately adjacent to the I-19 R/W includes twenty-five recorded UST sites, ten recorded LUST sites, and six hazardous material incident sites. Additionally, records identified one NPL superfund site, one hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facility, two landfills, and one Brownfield site within one mile of the study area. Further coordination would be required if right-of-way acquisition or proposed construction actions will impact any existing hazardous material sites. If new right-of-way is to be acquired for future construction, a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment should be conducted to allow the user a legal defense under the Landowner Liability Protections under CERCLA; as well as, provide the user with an account of the potential for the study area to have been impacted by contaminants.

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 66 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 4.2.8 4(f) Resources Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966 stipulates that Federal Highway Administration may not approve the use of land from a significant publicly owned park, recreation area, or wildlife and waterfowl refuge, or any significant historic site that is either listed, or eligible for listing on the Register under the following Criteria stated in 49 U.S.C., Section 303: “It is the policy of the United States Government that special effort is made to preserve the natural beauty of the countryside and public park and recreation lands, wildlife and waterfowl refuges, and historic sites. The Secretary of Transportation shall cooperate and consult with the Secretaries of the Interior, Housing and Urban Development, and Agricultural, and with the States, in developing transportation plans and programs that include measures to maintain or enhance the natural beauty of lands crossed by transportation activities or facilities. The Secretary may approve a transportation program or project requiring the use of publicly owned land or a public park, recreation area, or wildlife and waterfowl refuge, or land of an historic site of national, State, or local significance (as determined by the Federal, State, or local officials having jurisdiction over the park, recreation area, refuge, or site) only if- 1) There is no prudent and feasible alternative to using that land; and 2) The program or project includes all possible planning to minimize harm to the park, recreation area, wildlife and waterfowl refuge, or historic site resulting from the use.” The study area contains eighty-six Section 4(f) properties and includes two parks, one historic ranch, thirteen NRHP sites, four NRHP Historic Districts, and sixty-six eligible NRHP sites. The two parks identified within the I-19 study area includes La Mar Park which is located in South Tucson on the east side of I-19 and Anamax Neighborhood Park which is located in Sahuarita on the west side of I-19 (See Exhibit 4-11). The Historic Canoa Ranch is located in Pima County south of Green Valley, on the east side of I-19 approximately 2.9 miles south of East Continental Road to West Elephant Head Road and is approximately 4,800 acres in size. The Canoa Ranch is owned by Pima County and provides public use for a variety of recreational activities in designated areas of the property. Although the Canoa Ranch is a historic site it is not listed on the NRHP and currently has only been recommended for eligibility for the NRHP (Appendix C.2). The Historic Canoa Ranch however is publicly owned with active and planned recreational usages available to the public and therefore has been identified as a Section 4(f) Resource. There are thirteen sites and four historic districts within the study area that are currently listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and are further discussed in detail in Section 4.2.10 Cultural Resources, Exhibit 4-12, and in Appendix C.2. Additionally, there are sixty-six (66) sites that have been determined eligible by the SHPO (Section 4.2.10 Cultural Resources and Appendix C.2). These NRHP sites along with the sites that have been determined eligible for the NRHP are identified as Section 4(f) Resources. Further Section 4(f) coordination with the appropriate agencies and departments would be required if I- 19 Frontage Road improvements impact any of the eight-four identified Section 4(f) Resources aforementioned properties or the entrances to the related facilities. The existing I-19 alignment follows the rough alignment of the Historic Trail of Juan Bautista de Anza from Nogales to Tucson. The Juan Bautista de Anza Trail was the first historic overland route

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 67 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 established in 1775 to connect Sonora, Mexico to San Francisco, California. The U.S. National Park Service designated the Juan Bautista de Anza Trail as a National Historic Trail in 1978. Although the Juan Bautista de Anza Trail is a historic site it is not listed on the NRHP and currently has not been determined eligible listing on the NRHP. Furthermore, recreational areas along the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail have not been identified within the I-19 study area. The Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail does not qualify as a Section 4(f) Resource; however future coordination with the appropriate agencies and departments would be recommended if impacts are anticipated at the entrances to recreational areas along the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail. No other publicly owned park, recreation area, or wildlife and waterfowl refuge is present within the study area. Section 4(f) properties outside of the I-19 Frontage Road Study Area have been identified that are within the vicinity and include, but not limited to, the Tumacacori Highlands Wilderness, Santa Rita Experimental Range and Wildlife Refuge, and . Entrances to these types of facilities may exist within the I-19 study area, therefore future coordination with the appropriate agencies and departments is recommended if impacts are anticipated at these facility entrances.

4.2.9 6(f) Resources The Land and Water Conservation Fund Act (LWCF) was signed into law on September 3, 1964. The Act was established to provide a funding source for acquisition of park and recreation lands by federal, state, and local governments. The provisions under Section 6(f)(3) mandate that these investments be protected, but recognize that changes in land use, especially in growing urban areas, can impact these protected areas. The LWCF Act contains the following provision to protect these areas from conversions (National Park Service 2004): ƒ SEC. 6(f)(3) No property acquired or developed with assistance under this section shall, without the approval of the Secretary, be converted to uses other than public outdoor recreation uses. The Secretary shall approve such conversion only if he finds it to be in accord with the then existing comprehensive statewide outdoor recreation plan and only upon such conditions as he deems necessary to assure the substitution of other recreation properties of at least equal fair market value and of reasonable equivalent usefulness and location. According to the 2003 Arizona Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (Arizona State Parks 2004), one (1) Section 6(f) funded property, the Anamax Neighborhood Park located in Sahuarita, is located within the I-19 Frontage Road Study Area (See Exhibit 4-11). The Anamax Neighborhood Park received a LWCF Grant in 1977 therefore, if improvements to the I-19 Frontage Roads directly impact the Anamax Neighborhood Park the requirements of Section 6(f)(3) would apply and coordination with the Arizona State Parks LWCF Grants Coordinator and the National Park Service would be required, regardless of the construction funding source. Additionally, if a new park is constructed within the study area (prior to construction of proposed I-19 Frontage Road improvements) that could be directly impacted and if LWCF funds are used to construct the park, requirements of Section 6(f)(3) would also apply.

4.2.10 Cultural Resources A preliminary review of cultural resources within and immediately adjacent to the study area was conducted utilizing the AZSITE Cultural Resource Database. The AZSITE database listed approximately 290 cultural resource survey projects (primarily archaeological in nature) and 494 archaeological and historical sites within a 1 mile buffer of the I-19 Frontage Road R/W (project review area). The AZSITE database list of cultural resource surveys and sites are included in Appendix C. The archaeological survey projects range from large community

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 68 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 surveys to small site specific surveys and linear transportation/utility related projects that have been undertaken as part of regulatory compliance efforts. Many of the cultural resource sites have been either investigated through controlled excavation projects or have been avoided by construction and development projects. The density and diversity of the cultural resources in the study area is high. The identified properties exhibit a great range in their distribution and character. Project types included linear transportation and utility R/W, agricultural, and residential and commercial land development activities. Resources vary in nature from prehistoric artifact scatters, habitation sites, to agricultural, mining and transportation, and historic buildings. As evident from the number and location of the survey activities, the study area has not been systematically surveyed. Instead many of the survey efforts are the results of separate compliance activities initiated by to state, federal, and local regulations. There are thirteen sites and four historic districts within the study area that are currently listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) (Exhibit 4-12). The four NRHP Historical Districts identified within the I-19 review area includes Barrio Libre Historic District, Crawford Hill Historic District, Marsh Heights Historic District, and Tubac Townsite Historic District. Additionally, there are sixty-six (66) sites that have been determined eligible by the SHPO; thirteen (13) sites have been determined not eligible by the SHPO; forty-five (45) sites have been recommended eligible by their recorders; eighteen (18) sites have been recommended as not eligible by their recorders; and 173 sites have not been evaluated (Appendix C.2). The site density in the review area suggests that there may be numerous significant archaeological sites eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) present.

As previously mentioned in Section 4.2.8 Section 4(f) Resources, the I-19 alignment follows the rough alignment of the Historic Trail of Juan Bautista de Anza from Nogales to Tucson. The Juan Bautista de Anza Trail is the first historic overland route established in 1775 to connect Sonora, Mexico to San Francisco, California. The U.S. National Park Service designated the Juan Bautista de Anza Trail as a National Historic Trail in 1978. Potential for cultural and historic resources within the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail alignment may require possible testing and/or data recovery in areas uncovered during construction operations. If any frontage roads are proposed on the Tohono O’odham San Xavier District, the Tohono O’odham Nation’s Cultural Affairs Department would need to be consulted for guidance.

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 71 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 As the I-19 and related transportation corridors are constructed and improved to serve the rapidly growing populations of Pima and Santa Cruz Counties, compliance with existing local, state and federal legislation concerning cultural resources must be part of the planning process. It is expected that any transportation corridors selected across the study area will require additional archaeological surveying. Furthermore, it is estimated that archaeological sites identified within proposed transportation corridors will require testing and/or data recovery investigations to mitigate any potential impacts. Compliance with local, state, and federal cultural resources regulations will be a substantial component of any transportation corridor that is selected. Cultural resources clearance and compliance with existing legislation requires adequate time to account for agency reviews and possible testing and/or data recovery, which must be factored into the planning process.

4.2.11 Summary of Environmental Opportunities and Constraints This section summarizes the social and environmental issues that should be considered during future plan development. A summary of environmental opportunities and constraints is presented in Exhibit 4-13. ƒ The Tucson International Airport (KTUS) is located within 20,000 ft of the I-19 Frontage Road Study Area. Notification to the FAA Administrator is required if construction operations occur within a 20,000 ft radius of KTUS and exceed the 100:1 slope equation, based upon guidance standards as stipulated in 14 CFR Part 77, Objects Affecting Navigable Airspace, and explained in the Federal Aviation Administrator (FAA) Advisory Circular AC 70/7460-2K. ƒ Populations considered in the socioeconomic analysis are relatively high within the study area, with the exception of the disabled population. The dominant minority group is Hispanic, at 62.2 percent. The total American Indian and Alaska Native population, at 3.1 percent, is more than double the percentage within Santa Cruz County and higher than the percentage within Pima County. Review of individual census tracts within the study area displayed that standards were exceeded with the elderly population, the low-income population, and the female head-of-household population Additional considerations would be required for minority and environmental justice populations as the proposed study area is developed. ƒ The percent of LEP individuals, at 13.4 percent, is higher than the total percentage for Pima County and lower than the total percentage for Santa Cruz County. Five census tracts within the study area displayed LEP populations within the study area that exceeded 20 percent of the total population and would require considerations for LEP services. ƒ A re-evaluation of the socioeconomic demographic composition should be conducted at the block group level to determine minority and environmental justice impacts. ƒ Native vegetation, including riparian tree species and cacti, is present within the study area. During future design phases, additional consideration would be required to ensure that impacts to these species are minimized and that landscape firms and nurseries are afforded the opportunity for salvage. ƒ Animal species that live in the Sonoran Desert, the Semidesert Grasslands, and surrounding vegetative communities are unique but most are not protected by law. Minimizing impacts to that natural desert lands should be considered during final design. The San Xavier Nation maintains a list of species of special concern that would need to be addressed for future projects on the reservation. ƒ Critical wildlife linkages are within the study area. Further studies and/or surveys for habitat connectivity and biological value may be required as the I-19 Frontage Road plan is developed.

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 72 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 ƒ The USFWS list of Threatened and Endangered Species would need to be addressed for compliance with the Endangered Species Act for any future project. ƒ It may be necessary to conduct a survey for any one or all of the following species: southwestern willow flycatcher, and the yellow-billed cuckoo, Gila topminnow, and the Pima pineapple cactus. ƒ A survey will be required by a qualified noxious weed authority to determine if any noxious weeds are present within the study area boundaries. ƒ Proposed work within or adjacent to potential waters of the U.S. would require a jurisdictional delineation and USACE concurrence. ƒ A Section 404 Nationwide Permit (NWP) would be required if the proposed project impacts identified waters of the U.S. within the project limits. Additionally, a pre-construction notification (PCN) would be required if impacts exceeded 0.1 acre. ƒ Improvements that occur within or near waters of the U.S. would require a Section 401 Water Quality Certification. However if the proposed project is Conditionally Certified then a Section 401 Water Quality Certification would not be required. ƒ Improvements that disturb more than one acre of land would require a AZPDES permit. Additionally a SW3P would also be required. ƒ 100-year floodplains are located within the study area. Considerations would be required for proposed work that falls within the flood zone. ƒ Prime Farmlands are present within the study area. A farmland impact assessment is required in accordance with the Farmland Protection Policy Act if federal funds are used for any roadway improvements that require right-of-way acquisition of adjacent farmlands.

ƒ One air quality non-attainment area for PM10 and one maintenance areas for CO2 was identified within the study area. Proposed transportation projects that are within the non-attainment area and/or the maintenance area are required to meet the requirements of Title 40 of CFR Parts 51 and 93; to be listed in an approved Transportation Improvement Plan prior to construction; and must adhere to the air quality rules and ordinances of Pima County. ƒ A noise analysis would be required. The roadway improvements are located near residential noise receptors. ƒ If new R/W is to be acquired within the I-19 Frontage Road study area, a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment should be conducted to satisfy the requirements of The All Appropriate Inquiry Rule (CFR 40 312) and to allow the user a legal defense under the Landowner Liability Protections under CERCLA; as well as, provide the user with an account of the potential for the study area to have been impacted by contaminants. ƒ Twenty-five underground storage tank (UST) sites and ten leaking underground storage tank (LUST) sites were recorded within or immediately adjacent to the study area. Six hazardous material incidents occurred within or immediately adjacent to the study area. Additionally, records identified one NPL superfund site, one hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facility, two landfills, and one Brownfield site within one mile of the study area. The results are summarized in Appendix B.

PROJECTED FUTURE TRAFFIC VOLUMES The purpose of Chapter 5 is to document the projection of future traffic volumes on I-19 frontage roads segments. The forecast of future traffic volumes are two phased: 1) near-term (2017) forecasts based on existing traffic volumes adjusted to account for planned developments and 2) long-term (2030) forecast based on annual growth rates. As previously documented, the frontage road system from a mobility perspective, is virtually non- existent north of Continental Road. The frontage road segments that do exist north of Continental Road serve isolated developments. South of Continental Road, a significant frontage road system is in place. Consequently, near-term and long-term traffic volumes projections were developed for the existing frontage roads south of Continental Road.

5.1 Near-Term (2017) Traffic Projections To assist in traffic volumes projections, several recently completed studies were reviewed. These included the ADOT Southeast Arizona Regional Transportation Profile, the ADOT I-19 Corridor Study, and the City of Nogales Small Area Transportation Study. However, each of these studies resulted in limited information on the frontage road system, as the focus of the ADOT studies is on the interstate system and the focus of the local studies is on the local transportation network. Consequently, near- term traffic volumes forecasts are based on analysis of existing traffic data and the available information related to ongoing and proposed private development. Traffic volumes projections were developed for frontage roads south of Continental Road. A review of available traffic reports indicate that the majority of proposed private development is currently concentrated in three distinct areas – the west side of the Canoa Road interchange, the east side of the Rio Rico Drive interchange, and the area between Ruby Road and Country Club Road. Traffic projections for the frontage road system were based on information obtained pertaining to proposed developments and a general annual growth rate of 2.5 percent per year for those areas without specific developments. This growth rate is based on the Census population data for Santa Cruz County between 1995 and 2005. The resulting short-term (2017) traffic volume estimates are shown in Exhibit 5-1 and graphically in Exhibit 5-2. Canoa Road Area: The Canoa Road area has significant development that has been approved but not constructed within the Canoa Ranch planned area development. According to a 2007 study prepared by United Civil Group for ADOT, the Canoa Ranch development has only constructed approximately 25 percent of the planned residential units. In addition, there is supporting retail and commercial uses that have yet to be built. In all, there is potential for an additional 14,000 daily trips onto the adjacent roadway network. Impact to the I-19 west-side frontage road is anticipated to be minimal since the majority of the development will be south of Canoa Road and Canoa Road connects directly to an I-19 interchange. However, there will be an increase in traffic using the two-way west-side frontage road to access the Continental Road activity centers. Rio Rico Area: Near the Rio Rico Drive interchange, there is significant ongoing residential development related to the Rio Rico Country Club and surrounding communities. Residential development on the east side of I-19 is denser near the Rio Rico Drive interchange but extends both north and south towards Peck Canyon Road and Ruby Road, respectively. Access to the Rio Rico Drive area is primarily via Pendleton Drive, and is less reliant on the frontage roads. On the west side of I-19, residential development relies heavily on the I-19 frontage road. A potential town center may be

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 78 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 located adjacent to the Rio Rico Drive interchange and will likely use the frontage road system to obtain partial access to commercial and office land uses. Ruby Road to Country Club Road Area: Significant short-term development is anticipated between Ruby Road and Country Club Road. On the east side of I-19, there are several commercial developments planned including a large “travel stop” gas station and hotel. In addition, there is significant existing industrial land uses just north of Ruby Road that will likely expand. On the west side of I-19, the development is largely residential including a large subdivision called Las Colinas Sagradas which will contain more than 1,000 homes. Development on both sides of I-19 will use the frontage road system exclusively for access.

5.2 Long-Term (2030) Traffic Projections Previously completed studies (I-19 Corridor Study, the Southeast Arizona RTP Study, Nogales Small Area Transportation Study) did not include development and documentation of long-term traffic volumes projections for the I-19 frontage roads, as the focus of these reports is on the interstate or the more developed areas of Nogales. As such, the long-term (2030) traffic volumes projections were developed based on the 2017 projections and an additional annual growth rate of 2.5 percent to account for continued residential growth in the foothills and interstate commercial/industrial development, both of which rely on the frontage road system. In addition, output data generated by available travel demand models was reviewed. Exhibit 5-3 displays 2030 traffic volumes projections. It should be noted that these volumes are based on existing knowledge of developments and general growth. Specific developments can skew these numbers depending on the size and location of the site however the County’s Comprehensive Plan has not supported recently proposed large-scale master-planned communities. The Sopori Ranch and Las Mesas master-planned communities have yet to obtain County approval or denial.

'ZJKDKVÄ 6. CONCLUSIONS

6.1 Transportation Conclusions The following conclusions were drawn regarding existing transportation conditions on the frontage roads: 1. The frontage roads are discontinuous throughout the study area. Gaps are located in seven areas on the west side frontage roads and six areas on the east side frontage roads. These gaps are located at: West-Side Frontage Road Gaps ƒ I-10 to Valencia Road – 3.9 miles ƒ Valencia Road to Duval Mine Road -15.7 miles ƒ South of Duval Mine Road to Continental Road - 3.8 miles ƒ South of Agua Linda Road to north of Chavez Siding Road - 0.73 miles ƒ South of Tubac Road to north of Palo Parado Road -1.75 miles ƒ Rio Rico to north of Ruby Road - 0.77 miles ƒ South of Country Club Road to Border - 4.5 miles

East-Side Frontage Road Gaps ƒ I-10 to north of Duval Mine Road – 18.95 miles ƒ South of Continental Road to north of Canoa Road – 1.2 miles ƒ South of Agua Linda to north of Chavez Siding Road – 0.91 miles ƒ South of Palo Parado to Peck Canyon Road – 1.42 miles ƒ South of Peck Canyon Road to north of Rio Rico Road – 2.2 miles ƒ North of Country Club Road to Border – the frontage road intersects Grand Avenue

2. The frontage roads in the study area are primarily two-way facilities, with the exception of a segment on the east side of I-19 north of Ruby Road. 3. Access is uncontrolled throughout all of the frontage road segments. 4. The existing level of service is C or better on all frontage road segments. 5. Speed limits vary significantly throughout the frontage roads. 6. In all cases, the two-way frontage roads intersect crossroads at separate locations from the interchange ramps. Frontage roads that have 200 feet separation between the frontage road and the ramps are at Valencia Road, Duval Mine Road, Arivaca Road (west side), Chavez Siding Road, Tubac, Tumacacori, Rio Rico Road and Ruby Road (the east-side frontage road and the west –side frontage road on the north side of the interchange). Interchanges with a tighter spacing (less than 200 feet) between freeway ramps and the frontage roads are at Continental Road, Canoa Road, Agua Linda Road, Palo Parado Road, Peck Canyon Road, and the west-side frontage road on the south side of the Ruby Road interchange. 7. There are a total of 417 access points along the 63.42 miles of frontage road that exists within the study area. This equates to approximately 6 to 7 access points per mile, or approximately 1 access point for every 800 feet of frontage road. Frontage road segments with greater than the average number of access points per mile are:

091374019 Arizona Department of Transportation ADOT I-19 FR – WP1 (01-04-08).doc 83 I-19 Frontage Road Study January 2008 Working Paper No. 1 West-Side Frontage Road Segments with Greater East-Side Frontage Road Segments with Greater than Average Number of Access Points than Average Number of Access Points

ƒ Segment 3 - Duval Mine Road TI to 0.5 ƒ Segment 2 - North of Duval Mine TI to miles south of TI Duval Mine Road TI ƒ Segment 11 - 0.4 miles north of I-19 / ƒ Segment 9 - South of Palo Parado Palo Parado Road TI to Rio Rico Road interchange to 0.6 miles north of Chavez Siding Road ƒ Segment 13 - Intersection with Grand Avenue to 0.5 miles north of I-19 / Rio Rico Road Interchange

8. The predominant crash type for the frontage roads is single vehicle crashes, accounting for 35 percent of all crashes. Rear end crashes and angle crashes are the next most common types of crashes. 9. Of the 246 total crashes over the five year period, 155 of the crashes resulted in no injury, accounting for 63 percent of the total crashes. 35 crashes resulted in non-incapacitating injuries and another 32 crashes resulted in possible injury. There were 10 crashes resulting in incapacitating injuries and 9 crashes were of unknown severity. Of the 5 reported fatalities, 3 of them occurred on the west-side frontage road between Continental Rd and Calle Tres. 10. The east-side frontage road segment from Continental Road to 0.2 miles south of Continental Road has the highest number of crashes with a total of 30 crashes over the five year period. 11. A number of frontage road segments had no crashes in the 5-year period. Those segments are:

West-Side Frontage Road Segments with No East-Side Frontage Road Segments with No Crashes, 2001-2005 Crashes 2001-2005

Canoa Road to Arivaca Road 0.6 miles north of Chavez Siding Road to Chavez Siding TI Arivaca Road to Agua Linda Road Palo Parado TI to south of Palo Parado TI

Aliso Springs Road to 2.2 miles south of Tubac TI 0.4 miles north of Palo Parado TI to Palo Parado TI

12. The average severity index for all segments is 1.60. The severity indices range from 0.50 occurring on the west-side frontage road segment 1 from I-19 / Valencia Road TI to 0.9 miles south of I-19/ Valencia Road TI ) to 3.40, occurring on west-side frontage road Segment 8 - north of Chavez Siding Road TI to Chavez Siding Road). There are nine segments with severity indices over the average and fifteen below the average.

6.2 Environmental Conclusions 13. The environmental evaluation indicates that proposed projects within the study area may potentially have substantial impacts on the quality of the human and natural environment. 14. Any proposed enhancement within the I-19 Frontage Road Study Area would be required to comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and related statutes, the Endangered Species Act of 1973 as amended, the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918, the Clean Water Act of 1977 as amended, the Clean Air Act of 1990 as amended, Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966, Section 6(f)(3) of the Land and Water Conservation Fund Act of 1964, and the Historic Preservation Act of 1966 along with any governing Federal, State, County, and/or Local rules, regulations, and ordinances.
