Box 23660, MS 8B Oakland, CA 94623-0660 (510) 506-1461 Following circulation for public review and consideration of comments received, Caltrans will issue a combined final EIS/ROD document unless statutory criteria or practicability considerations preclude such issuance. This page intentionally left blank Summary Summary The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), proposes to rehabilitate the roadway and sidewalks, improve safety and visibility, remedy drainage issues, and upgrade curb ramps to be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) along a 3.6-mile segment of State Route (SR) 82 (El Camino Real) in San Mateo County. The proposed project is a joint project by Caltrans and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), and is subject to State and federal environmental review requirements. Project documentation, therefore, has been prepared in compliance with both the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Caltrans is the lead agency under NEPA. Caltrans is the lead agency under CEQA. In addition, FHWA’s responsibility for environmental review, consultation, and any other actions required by applicable Federal environmental laws for this project are being, or have been, carried out by Caltrans pursuant to 23 United States Code Section 327 (23 USC 327) and the Memorandum of Understanding dated December 23, 2016, and executed by FHWA and Caltrans. Some impacts determined to be significant under CEQA may not lead to a determination of significance under NEPA. Because NEPA is concerned with the significance of the project as a whole, often a “lower level” document is prepared for NEPA. After receiving comments from the public and reviewing agencies, a Final EIR/EIS will be prepared. Caltrans may prepare additional environmental and/or engineering studies to address comments. The Final EIR/EIS will include responses to comments received on the Draft EIR/EIS and will identify the preferred alternative. After the Final EIR/EIS is circulated, if Caltrans decides to approve the project, a Notice of Determination will be published for compliance with CEQA, and a Record of Decision will be published for compliance with NEPA. The project extends along El Camino Real from post mile (PM) 12.3, East Santa Inez Avenue, in the City of San Mateo, to PM 15.9, Millbrae Avenue, in the City of Millbrae (i.e. project limits). The project is in the cities of San Mateo, Burlingame, and Millbrae, and the Town of Hillsborough in San Mateo County. Caltrans, as assigned by FHWA, is the lead agency under NEPA. Caltrans is also the lead agency under CEQA. The purposes of the project are to preserve and extend the life of the roadway and improve ride quality; improve drainage efficiency to reduce localized flooding; enhance user visibility and safety; and enhance pedestrian infrastructure and bring it into compliance with Title II of the ADA. This project is needed to correct roadway deficiencies and improve safety. Specifically, the project is needed due to the following: the overall condition of the pavement is rated as poor due to signs of moderate alligator cracking and very poor ride quality, which indicate roadway structural inadequacy; water ponding and flooding occurs frequently during rain events due to uneven roadway surfaces and inadequate or impacted drainage systems; pedestrian access is El Camino Real Roadway Renewal Project i June 2021 Summary impaired due to a lack of updated curb ramps and uneven sidewalks; pedestrian infrastructure is not compliant with state and federal ADA requirements; and existing sidewalks lack accessible pedestrian signal (APS) systems. Countdown pedestrian systems (CPS) and high-visibility striping or current devices as well as pavement markings are missing or outdated. This project is being considered without and with the inclusion of a design option to permanently relocate above-ground utilities underground for a portion of the project limits. The project has been programmed under expenditure authorization (EA) 04-0K810 Project identification number (ID) 0416000142 and EA 04-1G900 Project ID 0400020619. These EAs will be combined into EA 04-0K81U Project ID 0420000075 during construction. NEPA Assignment California participated in the “Surface Transportation Project Delivery Pilot Program” (Pilot Program) pursuant to 23 USC 327, for more than five years, beginning July 1, 2007, and ending September 30, 2012. The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21; P.L. 112-141), signed by President Obama on July 6, 2012, amended 23 USC 327 to establish a permanent Surface Transportation Project Delivery Program. As a result, Caltrans entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) pursuant to 23 USC 327 (NEPA Assignment MOU) with FHWA. The NEPA Assignment MOU became effective October 1, 2012, and was renewed on December 23, 2016, for a term of five years. In summary, Caltrans continues to assume FHWA responsibilities under NEPA and other federal environmental laws in the same manner as was assigned under the Pilot Program, with minor changes. With NEPA Assignment, FHWA assigned and Caltrans assumed all of the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) Secretary's responsibilities under NEPA. This assignment includes projects on the State Highway System and Local Assistance Projects off of the State Highway System within the State of California, except for certain categorical exclusions that FHWA assigned to Caltrans under the 23 USC 326 CE Assignment MOU, projects excluded by definition, and specific project exclusions.
