    III. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING A. Overview of Environmental Setting Section 15130 of the State CEQA Guidelines requires an EIR to include a discussion of the cumulative impacts of a proposed project when the incremental effects of a project are cumulatively considerable. Cumulative impacts are defined as impacts that result from the combination of the proposed project evaluated in the EIR combined with other projects causing related impacts. Cumulatively considerable means that the incremental effects of an individual project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects. Section 15125 (c) of the State CEQA Guidelines requires an EIR to include a discussion on the regional setting that the project site is located within. Detailed environmental setting descriptions are contained in each respective section, as presented in Chapter IV of this Draft EIR. B. Project Location The City of Ontario (City) is in the southwestern corner of San Bernardino County and is surrounded by the Cities of Chino and Montclair, and unincorporated areas of San Bernardino County to the west; the Cities of Upland and Rancho Cucamonga to the north; the City of Fontana and unincorporated land in San Bernardino County to the east; the Cities of Eastvale and Jurupa Valley to the east and south.

Chief Flood Control Engineer NOTICE OF EXTENDED PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD RE NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY (NOA)/ NOTICE OF INTENT (NOI) TO ADOPT A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL DISTRICT CARBON CANYON CHANNEL FLOOD CONTROL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT CHINO HILLS, CALIFORNIA The San Bernardino County Flood Control District (District) prepared a Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for the construction and maintenance of flood control improvements to the Carbon Canyon Flood Control Channel in the City of Chino Hills, California from an existing interim channel to an ultimate condition channel (See attached Figure 1: Regional Location) (Project). The Project goal is to reduce the risk of flooding during a 100-year storm event by increasing the capacity and conveyance of the District-maintained facility. The site is generally located within an area characterized as urbanized, primarily with single family residences to the north and south of the channel. There is a large Southern California Edison (SCE) right-of-way (ROW) south of the channel, intersecting the channel in two locations. There is a church complex at the west end of the channel (Chino Valley Community Church) as well as a recreational field with irrigated grass and ornamental plants that borders Little Chino Creek. There are commercial uses at the east end near Pipeline Avenue. The Project area covers approximately 4,850 linear feet in length and 150 feet in width where the existing interim channel already exists.
