    CHAPTER VI Alternatives CHAPTER VI Alternatives VI.A Introduction The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Section 15126.6(a), state that an environmental impact report (EIR) must describe and evaluate a reasonable range of alternatives to the proposed project that would feasibly attain most of the project’s basic objectives, but that would avoid or substantially lessen any identified significant adverse environmental effects of the project. An EIR is not required to consider every conceivable alternative to a proposed project and is not required to consider alternatives that are infeasible. Rather, it must consider a reasonable range of potentially feasible alternatives that will foster informed decision-making and public participation. The EIR must evaluate the comparative merits of the alternatives and include sufficient information about each alternative to allow meaningful evaluation, analysis, and comparison with the proposed project. Specifically, the CEQA Guidelines set forth the following additional criteria for selecting and evaluating alternatives: ● [T]he discussion of alternatives shall focus on alternatives to the project or its location which are capable of avoiding or substantially lessening any significant effects of the project, even if these alternatives would impede to some degree the attainment of the project objectives, or would be more costly. (Section 15126.6(b)) ● The range of potential alternatives shall include those that could feasibly accomplish most of the basic objectives of the project and could avoid or substantially lessen one or more of the significant effects. (Section 15126.6(c)) ● The specific alternative of “no project” shall also be evaluated along with its impact. (Section 15126.6(e)(1)) ● The alternatives shall be limited to ones that would avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project.

    SAMTRANS CORRESPONDENCE as of 12-11-2020 December 8, 2020 The Honorable Gavin Newsom Governor, State of California State Capitol, Suite 1173 Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear Governor Newsom: Bay Area transit systems continue to struggle in the face of dramatically reduced ridership and revenues due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This challenge was already the most significant crisis in the history of public transportation, and now it has persisted far longer than any of us would have predicted. Since the beginning, our workers have been on the front lines, doing their jobs as essential workers, responsible for providing other front line workers with a way to safely travel to and from essential jobs. Now that the availability of a vaccine is on the horizon, we are proud to echo the attached call from the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU). Specifically, we urge you to work to ensure that transit, paratransit, and school transportation workers are prioritized along with other essential workers to receive the vaccine following the critical need to vaccinate the State’s healthcare workers. Even with reduced ridership, an average of 8 million monthly riders continue to depend on Bay Area transit services. These riders are the healthcare workers, grocery clerks, caregivers, emergency services personnel and others doing the critical work that has kept California functioning during the pandemic. They cannot continue to do so without access to reliable public transportation, and are therefore dependent on the health of the transit workers that serve them every day. Our agencies have worked hard to ensure the public health of riders and transit workers during this crisis.

Over the past two years, with the implementation of TransLink® and the new fareboxes on Golden Gate Transit (GGT) buses, there have been significant changes on the way passenger fares are collected on GGT buses. 2. TransLink® and the new fareboxes on GGT buses provide District customers with means to pre­pay their fares so cash fare collection is not required as they board GGT buses. 3. As of July 1, 2009, TransLink®, “Smart Cards” and GFI Odyssey Farebox “Mag Stripe Value Cards” and “Period Passes” completely replaced the former means of prepaying bus fares; namely, books of 20 paper tickets, each valid for one bus ride between specific fare zones. 4. As a result of the implementation of these two projects, modifications to Master Ordinance 2009, are necessary. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE, HIGHWAY AND TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT, AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The Board hereby modifies Master Ordinance 2009 to reflect the implementation of TransLink® and the new fareboxes on Golden Gate Transit buses, as set forth below.

    WHAT Architect WHERE Notes Zone 1: Fisherman’s Warf and the Piers + North Beach Pier 39 is a shopping center and popular tourist attraction built in 1978. The marina is also home to the floating Forbes Island restaurant. The sea lions at Pier 39 have become a tourist attraction in their own right. Although the reason for their migration to the pier *** Pier 39 Warren Simmons Pier 39 is unclear, the refurbishing of the docks in September 1989 required the removal of all boats from that area, leaving large open spaces for the sea lions to move into. Once the project was completed, boat owners returned, but did their best to navigate around the sea lions; no efforts were made to encourage the new guests to leave. Aquarium of the Bay was built in 1996 as an aquarium. It added additional attractions to the original building and has 273 species and more than 60,000 fish. Sharks circle overhead, manta rays sweep by and seaweed sways all around at the Aquarium of the Bay, where you * Aquarium of the Bay ?

  • January 27, 2021 the Honorable Gavin Newsom Governor, State of California State Capitol, Suite 1173 Sacramento, CA 95814 RE
    January 27, 2021 The Honorable Gavin Newsom Governor, State of California State Capitol, Suite 1173 Sacramento, CA 95814 RE: Continued Prioritization of Transit Workers for COVID-19 Vaccine Dear Governor Newsom, On behalf of the undersigned Bay Area public transportation operators, we would like to register our concerns with the state’s decision to move away from a sector-based approach and adopt a new age-based distribution for the COVID-19 vaccine. On Monday, your administration announced the state’s new plan would transition to an age-based distribution of the vaccine following the prioritized vaccination of individuals age 65 and over, and workers in health care, emergency services, food and agriculture, and education. In doing so, the plan effectively eliminates the prioritization of public transit workers within Phase 1B – Tier 2. For several weeks, our agencies have actively followed the state’s evolving distribution methodology and provided feedback to the Department of Public Health’s Drafting Guidelines Working Group and Community Vaccine Advisory Committee. Locally, we have engaged our county health departments to ensure transit, paratransit, and school transportation workers are prioritized for the vaccine along with other essential workers, and many of us are supporting efforts to accelerate the pace of vaccine administration while ensuring equitable distribution. Throughout this pandemic, transit workers have provided a safe and reliable means of transportation for low-income individuals, persons with disabilities, seniors, communities of color, and essential workers. Much like health care professionals and the sectors within Phase 1B – Tier 1, transit workers provide an essential service, cannot work from home, and must interact with the public during their duties.
