Final Initial Study-Mitigated Negative Declaration 2 Letter 1 1 City of Lake Forest Saddleback Community Church Expansion Project Responses to Comments on the Draft IS-MND Letter 1 COMMENTER: Scott Morgan, Director, State Clearinghouse DATE: December 3, 2019 Response 1.1 The letter acknowledges that the City of Lake Forest has complied with the State Clearinghouse review requirements for draft environmental documents, pursuant to CEQA. Per the referenced website in the letter, the State Clearinghouse received one letter regarding the project during public review, from Caltrans District 12. Responses to the Caltrans District 12 letter are provided below under Letter 2. Final Initial Study-Mitigated Negative Declaration 4 Letter 2 1 2 City of Lake Forest Saddleback Community Church Expansion Project Responses to Comments on the Draft IS-MND Letter 2 COMMENTER: Scott Shelley, Branch Chief, Regional-IGR-Transit Planning, California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), District 12 DATE: December 2, 2019 Response 2.1 The comment recommends the inclusion of bike parking to be consistent with state goals to increase active transportation and reduce VMT. As discussed under Section 8, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Question B of the Draft IS-MND, the project would provide on-site bike racks. Like the existing use, the proposed project would be easily accessible from the bike trails and bike lanes mentioned in the comment. The bike parking would be designed in conformance with applicable standards. Response 2.2 The comment discusses work within the State Right-of-Way and if such work is to occur, encroachment permits and addressing of environmental concerns required. Project construction would occur within the existing Saddleback Community Church campus and would not occur within State Right-of-Way. Final Initial Study-Mitigated Negative Declaration 7 Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program 3. Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program This document is the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the Saddleback Community Church Expansion Project (project), located on the existing Saddleback Community Church campus, at 1 Saddleback Parkway in the City of Lake Forest. The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), requires that a Lead Agency adopt an MMRP before approving a project in order to mitigate or avoid significant impacts that have been identified in an Initial Study-Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS-MND) (Public Resources Code Section 21081.6[a]). The purpose of the MMRP is to ensure that the required mitigation measures identified in the IS-MND are implemented as part of overall project implementation. In addition to ensuring implementation of mitigation measures, the MMRP provides feedback to agency staff and decision-makers during project implementation, and identifies the need for enforcement action before irreversible environmental damage occurs. Table 1, below, summarizes the mitigation measures for each issue area identified in the IS-MND for the project. The table identifies each mitigation measure; the action required for the measure to be implemented; the time at which the monitoring is to occur; the monitoring frequency; and the agency or party responsible for ensuring that the monitoring is performed. In addition, the table includes columns for compliance verification. Where an impact was identified to be less than significant, no mitigation measures were required. The mitigation measures contained herein shall be included as conditions of approval for the project, to the extent permitted by law. The City of Lake Forest shall ensure that all construction plans and project operations conform to the conditions of the mitigated project.

(Photo credit: American Red Cross) Opposite Page: Painting of Harris Fire by Kate Dore, based on photo by Wes Schultz. 2 Introductory Statement In October of 2007, a series of large wildfires ignited and burned hundreds of thousands of acres in Southern California. The fires displaced nearly one million residents, destroyed thousands of homes, and sadly took the lives of 10 people. Shortly after the fire siege began, a team was commissioned by CAL FIRE, the U.S. Forest Service and OES to gather data and measure the response from the numerous fire agencies involved. This report is the result of the team’s efforts and is based upon the best available information and all known facts that have been accumulated. In addition to outlining the fire conditions leading up to the 2007 siege, this report presents statistics —including availability of firefighting resources, acreage engaged, and weather conditions—alongside the strategies that were employed by fire commanders to create a complete day-by-day account of the firefighting effort. The ability to protect the lives, property, and natural resources of the residents of California is contingent upon the strength of cooperation and coordination among federal, state and local firefighting agencies.

  • Post-Fire Treatment Effectiveness for Hillslope Stabilization
    United States Department of Agriculture Post-Fire Treatment Forest Service Rocky Mountain Effectiveness for Research Station General Technical Hillslope Stabilization Report RMRS-GTR-240 August 2010 Peter R. Robichaud, Louise E. Ashmun, and Bruce D. Sims A SUMMARY OF KNOWLEDGE FROM THE Robichaud, Peter R.; Ashmun, Louise E.; Sims, Bruce D. 2010. Post-fire treatment effectiveness for hill- slope stabilization. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-240. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 62 p. Abstract This synthesis of post-fire treatment effectiveness reviews the past decade of research, monitoring, and product development related to post-fire hillslope emergency stabilization treatments, including erosion barri- ers, mulching, chemical soil treatments, and combinations of these treatments. In the past ten years, erosion barrier treatments (contour-felled logs and straw wattles) have declined in use and are now rarely applied as a post-fire hillslope treatment. In contrast, dry mulch treatments (agricultural straw, wood strands, wood shreds, etc.) have quickly gained acceptance as effective, though somewhat expensive, post-fire hillslope stabilization treatments and are frequently recommended when values-at-risk warrant protection. This change has been motivated by research that shows the proportion of exposed mineral soil (or conversely, the propor- tion of ground cover) to be the primary treatment factor controlling post-fire hillslope erosion. Erosion barrier treatments provide little ground cover and have been shown to be less effective than mulch, especially during short-duration, high intensity rainfall events. In addition, innovative options for producing and applying mulch materials have adapted these materials for use on large burned areas that are inaccessible by road.

  • “Loving the Sinner, Hating the Sin”: an Analysis of American
    1 “LOVING THE SINNER, HATING THE SIN”: AN ANALYSIS OF AMERICAN MEGACHURCH RHETORIC OF HOMOSEXUALITY Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Religion The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Ann Duncan May/2014 2 Introduction Recently the issue of homosexuality has come to represent a majorly divisive factor within American Christianity as more and more churches are defining their boundaries, or lack thereof, at homosexuality: many congregations believe that practicing homosexuality is not an acceptable aspect of one’s life that will allow passage into God’s Kingdom or salvation. Within megachurches, Protestant churches having at least 2,000 attendees per week, homosexuality often presents itself as a divisive and controversial issue. Megachurches tend to be situated on the more conservative and evangelical end of the spectrum of Protestant Christianity and, therefore, many of their congregations have expressed disapproval of homosexuality; they preach doctrines providing content for rhetoric following the guidelines of sexual purity as follows from divine law within their congregations. These doctrines include the biblical literalist approach to abiding by divine law, the presence of sin in today’s world, and the conscious choice to continue living a life in sin. It is through the combination of these doctrines, one choosing to act in a sinful manner going against the divine law accepted when one takes a literal approach to the Bible, which allows megachurches to arrive at the conclusion that the “homosexual lifestyle” constitutes a sin worthy of condemnation. However, megachurches are also using rhetoric of love and acceptance regardless of sexuality.

Topical Responses Topical Response 1 – Fire Hazard This response is provided to address topical issues that were identified several times within the comment letters on the DEIR. Reference to this Topical Response is noted in response individual comment letters on this topic. Seven fires have burned within one mile of the Project site over the historic fire data record as shown on Exhibit 5-65 - Fire History Map on page 5-284 of the DEIR. The average interval between wildfires in the area was calculated to be 5.5 years with intervals ranging between 0 years (multiple fires in the same year) and 12 years. As shown below, the interval between fires on the Project site has been much greater with a 28-year interval between the Owl Fire and the Freeway Complex Fire. Historical records show that three wildfires have burned within the Project site since the beginning of the historical fire data record: • Santa Ana Canyon Fire in 1943 • Owl Fire in 1980 • Freeway Complex Fire in 2008 The Fire Protection and Emergency Evacuation Plan (FPEP) prepared by Dudek (June 2013) was used to assess the existing condition and the historical fire data, and to provide recommendations for minimizing the risks associated with potential future fire events. The FPEP is included in the DEIR as Appendix J and is analyzed in DEIR Section 5.7 (Hazards and Hazardous Materials). The preparers of the FPEP reviewed numerous information sources during the analysis phase of the document’s preparation.
