Smith and Associates, Inc. (BFSA) for the proposed Azusa Business Center Project located in the western portion of the city of Azusa, Los Angeles County, California. The 23.268-acre project includes Assessor’s Parcel Numbers (APNs) 8617-001-029 and 8900-763- 710, which is currently the location of the Colorama Wholesale Nursery, and historically included the American Cyanamid & Chemical Corporation (ACC) Owl-4X Plant for the manufacturing of cyanogen chloride (tear gas), and former ACC Gypsum Impoundment Area for the disposal of calcium sulfate (gypsum) slurry. The project is located at 1025 North Todd Avenue, bound on the east by North Todd Avenue, on the north by West Sierra Madre Avenue, and on the west by the San Gabriel River. The location is further described as being within the former Rancho Azusa de Dalton Land Grant, Township 1 North, Range 10 West (projected) on the USGS Azusa, California topographic quadrangle. The project proposes to redevelop the existing Colorama Wholesale Nursery property to construct seven large industrial buildings, as well as associated parking, landscaping, and infrastructure improvements. The project’s two site plan options both involve an estimated total building area of 463,436 square feet divided among the seven buildings, with each building ranging in size from 28,576 square feet to 161,231 square feet. Site access would be provided via two stop-controlled driveways at Todd Avenue. The purpose of this investigation was to locate and record any cultural resources present within the project and subsequently evaluate any resources as part of the City of Azusa’s environmental review process conducted in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City’s Historic Preservation Ordinance criteria (Ord. No. 00-012, § 2, 10-16- 00). The cultural resources investigation included the review of an archaeological records search performed at the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) at California State University, Fullerton (CSU Fullerton) in order to assess previous archaeological studies and identify any previously recorded archaeological sites within the Area of Potential Effect (APE) or in the immediate vicinity. In addition, a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search was also requested from the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC). A review of the records search provided by the SCCIC indicated that no previously recorded resources are located within the subject property, while eight resources have been recorded within a one-mile radius of the APE. Property research indicates that the property has undergone extensive ground disturbance since first being utilized for industrial purposes around 1918. The SLF search failed to indicate the presence of Native American cultural resources within, or in the vicinity of, the APE. A list of Native American contacts was provided by the NAHC, and in accordance with their recommendations, BFSA contacted all Native American consultants listed to inform the tribes about the nature of the project. During the archaeological field survey, no cultural resources were identified within the APE. The entire property has been graded and developed.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION Phase II of the San Diego’s Fire-Rescue Air Operations (AirOps) Facility Project (proposed project) would design and construct permanent helicopter hangars and support facilities at Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport. The project area is located in the northeastern corner of the airport in the Kearny Mesa community of the city of San Diego, California (Figure 1). The project area is within an unsectioned portion of the Mission San Diego landgrant on the U.S. Geological Survey 7.5-minute La Jolla quadrangle (Figure 2). Figure 3 shows the project location on a City 800’ map. The project area consists of a 6.5-acre site located adjacent to the Air Traffic Control Tower between the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) lease area, the Runway Object Free Area, and the Runway Protection Zone for the northwest approach to Runway 5/23 (Figure 4). Entry to the project area is via an asphalt road accessed from a security gate located off Ponderosa Avenue. AirOps is a 24/7 365-day operating facility with no hangar space at Montgomery Field. A feasibility study concluded that 30,000 square feet of hangar space is required to meet future needs of the AirOps fleet.

    SECTION 3.9 ARCHAEOLOGICAL/PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES 3.9 ARCHAEOLOGICAL/PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES 3.9.1 INTRODUCTION This section examines the potential impacts to arctlaeological and paleontological resources, including Native American cultural resources, that may result from the Proposed Project, and is based on the Archaeological and Paleontolog~caI Resources Technical Report prepKred by DLIDEK (May 2009). As further explained below, any potential impacts to archaeological and paleontological resources would be mitigated to a level below significant. The technical report relied upon for pro-par afion of this section is included in Appendix 3.9 of tl~s ELR. 3.9.2 METHODOLOGY 3.9.2.1 Archaeological Resources An occchaeological records search of data maintained at the South Coastal Archaeological Information Center ("SCIAC") was requested on April 16, 2009, ai~d SCIAC completed the records search on April 21, 2009. The records search, which included the review of relevant archaeological report and site record databases, extended to all areas within 0.25 mile of tlie Project site. (Please see AppenctKx A of the technica~ report, located in Appendix 3.9, for a list of the reports and records identified during the records search.) 3.9.2.2 Paleontological Resources The paleontologicai resource investigation relied on the foliowing documents: Geology of the San Diego Metropolitan Area, California (Kennedy and Petorson, 1975); Geotechnical Input for Environmental Impact Report (Southloa~d Geotechnical Consultants (SGC), 2009; see Appendix 3.4); and Paleontological Resources, County of San Diego (Demhr~ and Walsh, 1993). 3.9.2.3 Native American Cultural Resources In order to assess the potential impacts to Native American cnfturaI resources, a letter (dated ApriI 15, 2009) was sent to the Native American Heritage Corm~ssion ("NAHC") requesti~lg: (i) fl~at a Sacred Lands F~Ie search be conducted for the Project site and neighboring vicirdty; and (ti) that a list of local tribal contacts be provided.

    An Employee-Owned Company June 24, 2016 Ms. Rikkie Ren Creative Design Associates 17528 E. Rowland Street, 2nd Floor City of Industry, CA 91748 Reference: Archaeological Survey for the Loma Alta Residence (RECON Number 7804) Dear Ms. Ren: This letter is to document the archaeological survey for the Loma Alta Residence (project) in the city of Oceanside, California. The archaeological survey was undertaken to fulfill City of Oceanside’s responsibilities under the California Environmental Quality Act. A qualified RECON archaeologist surveyed the project property on June 15, 2016 to identify, evaluate, and record any observable surface cultural resources. No prehistoric or historic cultural resources were observed during the survey of the property. 1.0 Introduction The project site is located in the city of Oceanside, east of Interstate 5 and north of State Route 78 (Figure 1). The project site consists of 4.13 acres (Assessor’s Parcel Number 149-010-2800) in Section 24 of Township 11 South, Range 5 West of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute topographic map, San Luis Rey quadrangle (Figure 2). The project site is composed of undeveloped land consisting of disturbed and ornamental vegetation and is surrounded by single-family residential development to the north, south, east, and west (Figure 3). The project proposes the construction of 10 single-family dwelling units on a previously undeveloped 4.13- acre parcel. 2.0 Environmental Setting 2.1 Physical Setting The project site is currently vacant. Residential fencing bounds most of the property, with a segment of chain-link fencing along Loma Alta Drive.

Twin Oaks Valley Road, Suite 1209 San Marcos, CA 92079 Subject: Cultural Resources Survey, Sandpiper Villa Residential Care Facility for the Elderly Project Dear Mr. Mitchell: HELIX Environmental Planning, Inc. (HELIX) was contracted to conduct a cultural resources survey for the proposed Sandpiper Villa Residential Care Facility for the Elderly Project (project) located in the City of Oceanside (City). This letter report details the methods and results of the cultural resources study, which included a records search, Sacred Lands File search, Native American outreach, a review of historic maps and aerial photographs, and a field survey. No cultural resources were identified within the project site, but the general area is sensitive for cultural resources, and ground visibility was poor during the field survey. Based on this, monitoring of initial ground-disturbing activities is recommended.
