INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY The Edgemont Water Master Plan Update (EWMPU) includes the Water Infrastructure Analysis Study (WIAS). The objective of the Water Infrastructure Analysis Study is to analyze the existing Box Springs Mutual Water Company (BSMWC) water system and determine the adequacy of the existing system, determine any necessary system improvements and the associated costs of the improvements to comply with the current City of Moreno Valley General Plan and Land Use designations (ultimate development). Presently, the BSMWC facilities cannot meet the City of Moreno Valley minimum fire flow requirements and therefore does not provide adequate fire protection for the approximately 600 existing residential customers and businesses. Further, the water system is aging and deteriorated and in need of replacement and rehabilitation. Two Alternatives for improvements, plus the no action (or no project) alternative, were analyzed to meet the water supply and fire suppression needs of the ultimate development based on water storage facilities, pipeline facilities, pumping facilities and water supply. Alternative No. 1 consists of maintaining the current system operational scheme, with additional water supply from additional groundwater extraction, and upgrading all existing BSMWC facilities (pipelines, reservoir, and hydropneumatic booster station). Alternative No. 2 consists of connecting to the Western Municipal Water District (WMWD) water system for both water supply and fire suppression needs (see Project Description below for a more detailed description). The no project alternative would not adopt or implement the EWMPU and the WIAS would not be utilized to address the inadequacy of the existing system. The proposed improvements are located within the BSMWC service area on the western most end of the City of Moreno Valley and encompasses approximately 430 acres in the Edgemont area (refer to Figure 1, Vicinity Map and Figure 2, Aerial Photograph). Potable water for this portion of the City of Moreno Valley has been provided to residents through the BSMWC. BSMWC is a private shareholder company that was incorporated on June 9th 1920 by landowners to provide water to their lands. Water service for the remaining portion of the City of Moreno Valley is provided by Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD). Primary water supply is provided via a groundwater well. BSMWC is located within the sphere of influence of WMWD and part of WMWD’s Improvement District “B” as a result of the 1964 agreement to supplement water. This initial study/environmental assessment (IS/EA) has been prepared to assess the potential for any significant environmental effects associated with BSMWC Water Infrastructure Analysis Study. The Lead Agency for this project is the City of Moreno Valley, as BSMWC cannot serve in that capacity pursuant to CEQA. This IS/EA has been prepared pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA, California Public Resources Code Sections 21000 et seq.), and the State CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations Sections 15000 et seq.).

  • 4.1 Aesthetics
    Environmental Impact Analysis Aesthetics 4.1 Aesthetics This section evaluates the potential impacts of the proposed 2021 LRDP related to aesthetics, including potential impacts on scenic vistas, visual character and quality, and impacts from light and glare. 4.1.1 Environmental Setting Regional Setting The UCR campus is located on the eastern side of Riverside, in western Riverside County, California, an urbanized area surrounded by natural landscape features, hills, ridgelines, and parkland. The higher elevation hills shape the visual outline of the city’s viewshed. Specifically, the La Sierra/Norco Hills, Mount Rubidoux, Box Springs Mountains, Sycamore Canyon, and the many smaller ranges south of the city provide a visual backdrop as viewed from streets, buildings, and open spaces. The Santa Ana River watercourse and riverbed is just north of the city’s boundary line and serves as a significant natural habitat for many species of birds and other animals. It also forms a visual landmark for visitors and residents who can view this river (City of Riverside 2007a). Riverside is characterized by a pattern of auto-oriented, low- to medium-density land uses in an established urban environment typical of southern California, with areas of higher density and diverse uses in the downtown area, along Market Street and Mission Inn Avenue, approximately 3 miles from campus. Parks and open space flank both sides of the northeastern area of the city, with Mount Rubidoux Park and Fairmount Park on the western side and Box Springs Mountain Reserve Park and Sycamore Canyon Wilderness Park on the eastern side. Mount Rubidoux is an approximately 1,331-foot-tall peak just west of downtown Riverside that offers views of the city and surrounding area, trails, and historic landmarks such as the Peace Bridge and the Sierra Cross (Rivers and Lands Conservancy 2018).

  • 5.9 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES the Information Contained Within This
    5.9 Biological Resources 5.9 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES The information contained within this section is summarized from the Moreno Valley General Plan EIR Biological Report (Merkel & Associates, September 2004). The report is provided in Volume II Appendix E of this EIR. The existing biological resources documented in this report were determined through an extensive review of the most current, available biological literature and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) data available for the planning area. Previous biological surveys conducted by Merkel & Associates (M&A) staff, as well as biological information gathered by other consultants for projects within Moreno Valley, were further reviewed. Vegetation communities were primarily identified based on the regional GIS data incorporated into the MSHCP (KTU+A and PSBS 1995). Floral and faunal species potential presence was determined based on vegetation community presence/absence and knowledge of species requirements. The assessment of presence or potential presence of sensitive biological resources was also based on MSHCP data, which incorporated California Natural Diversity Database records for sensitive species. In addition to the MSHCP and vegetation community information, the following sources were consulted to aid in determining faunal presence/absence: USFWS 2000b, Ericksen and Belk 1999, Sauer et al. 1996, Sauer et al. 2000, Zeiner et al. 1988, Zeiner et al. 1990a and 1990b. M&A also contacted individuals with special expertise to determine the likelihood of species presence for certain groups (e.g., bats). Additionally, M&A biologists, Craig Reiser and Diana Jensen, conducted field investigations in April 2001 to ground truth portions of the regional GIS vegetation data and record locations of identified sensitive species.

    5.10 Cultural Resources 5.10 CULTURAL RESOURCES The following section is summarized from the Study of Historical and Archaeological Resources for the Revised General Plan, City of Moreno Valley prepared by Archaeological Associates, Inc. (Revised August, 2003), and the Cultural Resources Survey for the City of Moreno Valley, Riverside County, California prepared by the Archaeological Research Unit (ARU) of the University of California at Riverside (October, 1987). The full text of these studies is contained in Volume II Appendix F of this EIR. ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING History of Moreno Valley Human occupation of Southern California may date as far back as 10,000 years. However, there is no evidence of human activity in the Moreno Valley region prior to about 2,300 years ago. By the time the Spanish began to explore California, descendents of the Shoshonean people, the Luiseño, held the territory that currently includes the Moreno Valley planning area. However, other groups such as the Serrano and Cahuilla were also in the area. The most important habitation sites in Moreno Valley and the western San Jacinto Valley were at Perris Reservoir. Development of the planning area began in 1890 as the Town of Moreno was founded. However, the absence of a reliable water supply prompted most of the residents to leave by the end of the decade. Neighboring townships, Sunnymead and Edgemont, were more successful and established rural communities drawing on well water. The three towns finally incorporated into the City of Moreno Valley in 1984, with a population of nearly 47,000. Historic and Archaeological Resources A state inventory, the California Register of Historic Resources (CRHR) includes properties of importance at the state level.
