City staff recommends that the City Council: 1. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, contained in Public Resources Code commencing at Section 21000 and the California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, certifies the Supplemental Final Environmental Impact Report dated March 2015, adopt Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations, and adopt Mitigation Measures and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the City of Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update (State Clearinghouse No. 2007061031). It is further recommended that the City Clerk of the City of Vernon shall be designated as the custodian of all documents or other materials which constitute this record of proceedings upon which this decision is made; and 2. Adopt a Resolution adopting the General Plan Amendment. 3. Adopt an Ordinance adopting the Zoning Ordinance Amendment and Zoning Map. Background The General Plan is a comprehensive, long-range plan that guides decisions relating to land use, transportation, housing, public safety, use of open space and natural resources, parks and recreation, and noise in the community. The Zoning Ordinance implements the land use policies contained in the General Plan. The City of Vernon adopted comprehensive updates to the City of Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance on December 3, 2007. The General Plan was amended in 2009 and 2013 to update the Housing Element and housing-related portions of the Land Use Element. The proposed project is a focused update to the General Plan to comply with new State laws and make adjustments to land use policy regarding commercial uses and trucking and freight terminals, among other minor amendments. The Zoning Code is the primary implementation tool of the General Plan. As part of the General Plan update project, modifications to the Zoning Code are proposed to maintain consistency with the General Plan and to modernize and respond to current issues and developments. Update to General Plan Elements Land Use Element The City of Vernon General Plan has one land use category(Industrial) and five overlay districts: Commercial,Rendering, Slaughtering, Housing,and Emergency Shelter. The update modifies and expands the area to which the Commercial Overlay applies. The Commercial Overlay, which currently applies to Santa Fe Avenue and portions of Soto Street,would also apply to an expanded area of Soto Street,portions of Pacific Boulevard, Atlantic Boulevard, and Slauson Avenue, along with a small area along Alameda Street. This expansion of the Commercial Overlay is intended to both meet the needs of the daytime employee population and allow for a broader mix of uses on aging industrial sites. A modification was also made to restrict the extent of the Housing Overlay in the southeast corner of the City to the properties actually occupied by the Meta Housing development. The update to the Land Use Element also includes new policies to facilitate more intensive employment-generating uses near transit stops and to allow truck terminals and freight operations in certain locations. In addition, flood hazard information is provided to comply with State law (AB 162). Circulation Element To respond to changes in the Land Use Element, the update also includes a related change to the Circulation Element—removing a policy that limited trucking facilities to existing locations. Safety Element AB 162 (and related revisions to Section 65302 of the California Government Code) requires an update to the General Plan to identify areas subject to flooding and to incorporate any newly available information. The Safety Element of the General Plan is revised to reflect updated flood risks based on the most recent available data from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA),including revisions to the FEMA Flood Hazard Zones Map(Figure S-3). Most data were added for informational purposes to comply with State law. One additional policy was added requiring housing to be located using the Housing Overlay District and to be located in limited areas where potential hazards can be avoided. Resources Element Pursuant to AB 162, identification of rivers, creeks, streams, flood corridors, riparian habitat, and land that may accommodate floodwater for purposes of groundwater recharge and storm water management are required in the Resources Element. To comply with this provision, additional information is provided in the Resources Element to clarify the lack of riparian habitat in Vernon. In addition, a new section of the Resources Element addresses AB 32, the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 and SB 375. A policy was added indicating the City will consult with other agencies to facilitate coordination on land use, circulation, and infrastructure improvement projects. Limited changes to the Resources Element are also included to reflect the most recent Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) information available. Noise Element The Noise Element is updated with minor changes to consider noise impacts to any housing development that may be permitted within the Housing Overlay. Two existing policies are modified to require new developments to incorporate appropriate noise attenuation to achieve the City's noise standards and to minimize noise impacts on new residential development through carefully planned design and construction approaches that limit noise intrusion, where practical. Implementation Plan To correlate with new policies in the General Plan, focused new actions/modifications to existing Actions are proposed. The proposed amended General Plan,as revised and including the Draft Land Use Map,is attached herewith in Attachment A. Update to Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map The City has drafted amendments to the Zoning Ordinance to achieve consistency with proposed Land Use Element Overlay Districts and the goals, policies, and implementation measures specified in the General Plan. New Overlay Zones These revisions include the establishment of a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone(TF) and application of the overlay to approximately 1,065 acres of land located in the northern portion of the city. Additionally, given the expanded Commercial Overlay General Plan Land Use designation, the Commercial Overlay was revised to divide it into two overlay zones: C-1 and C- 2, with the overlay zones to be applied to approximately 281 acres and 177 acres, respectively. Additional Uses Permitted and Conditionally Permitted Additional land use categories were added, along with new definitions. For example, the update includes a new"Ancillary Retail Use"allowance whereby businesses may be permitted to dedicate a portion (no more than 10 percent) of existing industrial space to an ancillary retail use in connection with their Permitted Use. Such a use will facilitate sample sales and similar retail functions for manufacturing operations. Additional new uses defined include convention and entertainment venues (which shall not be permitted in the City), drive-through facilities, fueling stations, hazardous waste facilities, public utilities, tattoo parlors, trade schools, urgent care facilities, and wholesale uses. The intent of these new definitions is to provide modern definitions to reflect current zoning and use trends. New Development Standards for Billboards Oriented to 1-710 The revisions establish distancing requirements for billboards(i.e.,the allowable distance between such signs) that are designed to be primarily viewed from the I-710; the standards conform to Caltrans' standards. Standards are established for both digital and static (non-digital) billboards. Distancing requirements for billboards elsewhere in the City remain unchanged. Parking and Outdoor Storage Parking standards(spaces per use)are proposed for new uses in the Zoning Ordinance. The update extends the amortization date to 2020 for nonconforming outdoor storage and activities that occupy required parking spaces. The update also proposes a process whereby the required number of off- street Parking Spaces for an individual property/use may be reduced by outdoor storage and activities if a parking demand study is prepared that finds the project site has excess parking spaces beyond the permitted use's need.Additional standards were also added for the screening of outdoor storage and activities adjacent to residential uses. Nonconforming Buildings The South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) is considering establishing regulations that would require certain existing rendering business to enclose some of their operations due to odor issues. To accommodate this proposed new regulation, the code amendments would modify the Zoning Code Restrictions on Nonconforming Buildings and Uses section to allow existing nonconforming buildings and uses to increase floor area/square footage if required by a governmental agency to reduce the environmental impacts caused by the use. Administrative Process and Permits The Zoning Ordinance amendments were also undertaken to facilitate administration processes and procedures. Three new permits are provided in the Zoning Ordinance: 1) a Minor Conditional Use Permit, 2) a Temporary Use Permit, and 3) a Special Event Permit. The purpose of the Minor Conditional Use Permit is to provide a business-friendly permit process for uses that may only be suitable in specific locations or designed and constructed in a particular manner or under certain conditions, but are of a scale that would be less impactful than those that may be permitted with a Conditional Use Permit. The permit process for a Minor Conditional Use Permit would not require a public hearing with the City Council, and could thus be issued more quickly. The new Temporary Use Permit process is intended to provide a process to authorize temporary, short-term activities that would be compatible with adjacent and surrounding uses. The Special Event Permit would facilitate temporary uses that are considered minor in nature by virtue of having minimal impact to surrounding properties, such as indoor or outdoor sales event of product normally stored or produced onsite, outdoor or indoor meeting, ground-breaking ceremony, holiday or special occasion party, or similar event. A public hearing is not required for the Director's decision on a Temporary Use Permit or the Vernon Fire Chief s decision on a Special Use Permit. The process for making Minor Modifications to existing Conditional Use Permits was also streamlined. In addition, the required findings for a variety of permits were updated to provide clarity in implementation. Time requirements for Conditional Use Permits were also extended(the use for which the Conditional Use Permit was granted would be allowed to lapse for a year, rather than 120 days). Definitions and Clean-up Further, the Amendment incorporates multiple new definitions and additional clean-up, non- substantive revisions to provide clarity in implementation of the Zoning Ordinance, including new graphics to illustrate standards. The draft ordinance is attached herewith as Attachment B. Zoning Map The Zoning Map is proposed to be amended to implement revised General Plan policy. To be consistent with General Plan changes, the Zoning Map identifies locations for the C-1 and C-2 zone overlays, consistent with the Commercial General Plan Overlay, and revises the boundaries of the existing Housing Overlay. The Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone district is added to the draft Zoning Map. The draft Zoning Map is attached herewith as Attachment C. Outreach Summary and Community Input Two recent public workshops were held (January 26, 2015 and February 5, 2015) to discuss the Draft Zoning Ordinance amendments. Approximately 15 individuals attended each workshop. Also, a workshop was held in 2012 with the Chamber of Commerce to discuss options for amending the zoning ordinance. Comments received at the workshops included: 1) suggestion to allow adaptive reuse of existing buildings for residential uses and expanding the Housing Overlay area, 2) suggestion to allow wholesale businesses to sell at retail, 3) suggestion to allow industrial properties with on-site offices to rent/lease office space to outside users, and 4) concern about the landscape requirement for parcels within the C-1 and C-2 overlays. A memo summarizing meeting comments is attached herewith as Attachment D. Public Comment on Additional Housing: Staff has concerns with compatibility issues with the introduction of any housing when industrial prevail uses throughout Vernon. Because of the range of uses allowed in the Industrial zone, at any time a new industrial use could be established that might pose hazards to residential uses. The Housing Overlay gives the City the ability to assess any proposed housing development application on a case-by-case basis and only apply the overlay to properties where it makes good sense to do so, such as the recent Meta Housing development adjacent to existing residential uses in the city of Maywood. If Council would like staff to further investigate permitting additional housing, Staff recommends conducting a separate study to identify appropriate locations for the Housing Overlay zone. Public Comment on Allowing Wholesalers to Sell at Retail: As part of the draft Zoning Ordinance Amendments, a new ancillary retail use is proposed for the Industrial Zone. An ancillary retail use would be permitted with a Minor Conditional Use Permit. Public Comment on Leasing Offices within Industrial Uses: City staff agrees that the use of this space should be utilized and not subject only to the primary tenant of the space. As such, staff incorporated an additional amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to modify section 26.2.1-2 to allow the right to sublease to separate tenant office space areas. Public Comment on Landscaping: The C-1 and C-2 overlay zones include a requirement that at least five percent of the gross lot area be dedicated to irrigated landscaping that is visible from the street. The previous standard required one percent of the gross lot area to be dedicated to landscaping within the Commercial Overlay Zone. The intent of the revised landscaping requirement is to provide a good commercial interface for pedestrian activity along the streets. City staff believes that the proposed changes should not be modified and that landscaping should be required. CEQA Adoption of the General Plan and Zoning Code amendments is considered a "project" under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Project collectively includes the Proposed General Plan Amendments, General Plan Land Use Map Amendments, Zoning Ordinance Amendments, and Zoning Map Amendments. CEQA documentation must be prepared, and the City Council must make an environmental determination pursuant to CEQA prior to taking action on the project. On December 3, 2007, the City Council certified the FEIR for the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update. The 2007 FEIR for the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update examined the environmental effects associated with the adoption and long-term implementation of the City of Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update. In 2014, a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) for the project was prepared in compliance with CEQA, as established in Section 21000-21178 of the California Public Resources Code and Section 15000-15387 of the California Code of Regulations, to provide the environmental review for these proposed amendments to the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. CEQA authorizes a City to prepare a Supplement to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary to a previously analyzed project. The SEIR includes an analysis of potential environmental impacts associated with the proposed project; unavoidable significant impacts have been identified related to transportation/traffic, as was previously identified in the certified EIR. No other significant, unavoidable impacts have been identified. A copy of the Draft SEIR is attached herewith as Attachment E. The SEIR was available for a 45-day comment period from December 4,2015 to January 19,2015. Comment letters were received from the California Native American Heritage Commission, the California Department of Transportation(Caltrans), and The Ness Companies.A copy of the Final SEIR, which includes copies of the comment letters and responses to comments, is attached herewith as Attachment F. It is recommended that Findings of Fact and a Statement of Overriding Considerations (attached herewith as Attachment G)be adopted for the project subject to the mitigation measures set forth in the Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program,attached herewith as Attachment H. It is further recommended that the City Council adopt the Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program contained in Attachment F. Fiscal Impact The City of Vernon contracted with consulting firm Moore Iacofano Goltsman, Inc. to assist with completing General Plan and Zoning Code Amendments.No additional fiscal impact is associated with adoption of the proposed amendments.

Table of Contents-vi VERNON GENERAL PLAN INTRODUCTION Vernon General Plan Introduction •rrrrr i INTRODUCTION VERNON — FOUNDING OF THE CITY AND ESTABLISHING ITS MISSION The City of Vernon was founded in 1905 as an industrial city, and it remains so today. This General Plan reflects the long history and continues the City's mission of maintaining Vernon as an ideal location for industry in Southern California. At the turn of the twentieth century,the lands now comprising Vernon were largely farmland. However, the location south of downtown Los Angeles and the presence of major rail lines led influential businessmen and property owners to encourage railroad companies to run spur lines into the adjacent farmlands. These rail extensions enabled the creation of an "exclusively industrial" city. James J. and Thomas Furlong and John B. Leonis led the city formation effort, and Vernon incorporated in 1905. Introduction-1 Vernon General Plan Introduction Vernon farmland along the Los Angeles River, 1926 Jot rw Although the presence of the rail lines facilitated industrial development, the process was slow. A few new industrial businesses located in Vernon during the colorful period between incorporation and Prohibition Period of the 1920s. Other businesses located in the City during this period, such as Doyle's bar, which employed 37 bartenders and hosted an arena where 20 world championship boxing matches were held. Vernon also had a ballpark for the Vernon Tigers,which won Pacific Coast League championships on multiple occasions . By the 1920s, Vernon was attracting large stockyards and meatpacking facilities, including slaughtering operations. While the stockyards have vanished, meat processing remains a signature business in the City. The Farmer John's facility, with its iconic pig mural, processes pork products, including the famous Dodger Dogs enjoyed by baseball fans. Refrigerated food storage began as an outgrowth of the early meat packing and processing activities and is now a significant activity as well. Introduction-2 Vernon General Plan Introduction Los Angeles Union Stock Yards in Vernon, 1937 1� a � i To provide for the service requirements of these activities, including the electrical demands of the cold storage and refrigerated facilities, in the early 1930s the City began building municipal water supply and distribution facilities, as well as its own electrical power plant, which remains in operation. The capability of the City to provide these two critical services at a relatively low cost continues to be a competitive advantage for Vernon in attracting industry. During the 1920s and '30s, Vernon became the location of choice for many heavy industrial plants, including steel, aluminum,paper, and glass producers. Automobile assembly, canning, and other manufacturing operations also were established in the City in this period. As economic conditions have changed over the decades,however, many of these large- scale industrial operations have relocated out of Southern California or even out of the country. Introduction-3 Vernon General Plan Introduction Vernon Potteries, 1931 - ilk 7 - f The focus of businesses has shifted to smaller, more specialized manufacturing, processing, and storage operations. The City's business-friendly environment, competitive-cost utilities, (largely due to the recent completion of the Malburg Generating Station), and key location for trucking and rail transport continue to position Vernon as an ideal location for industrial uses. VISION FOR THE FUTURE As Vernon enters the twenty-first century, its mission and character remains unchanged. For the foreseeable future, Vernon will continue to be an almost totally industrial city, with limited retail commercial and food service operations to support the large day-time business population, and few residences. City policy, land use restrictions, and limited land availability will allow Vernon to continue its mission to attract new,highly specialized industrial businesses. As noted in the City's 1992 General Plan, national economic and environmental regulations have resulted in the shift of many types of industrial operations to other areas of the world. These forces have affected the type and character of industrial operations in Vernon, as they have elsewhere in the United States. Technological advances, environmental regulations, the cost of labor and raw or processed materials, and the cost of energy and petroleum products necessitate Introduction-4 Vernon General Plan Introduction continuing change in Vernon's industrial operations and in the types of new industries desiring to locate in the City. Together with the aging of both private development and the public infrastructure, these factors require that a framework for guiding future growth and development in the community be developed. This General Plan addresses the continuing change, growth, and development of Vernon over the next two decades and provides a public policy statement regarding the future of the City. PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF THE PLAN Adopted by the City Council and available to all businesses, property owners, and others with an interest in the community, the General Plan is available for public review at all times. The Plan complies with the requirement by the State of California that all cities prepare and adopt a comprehensive, long-range plan to serve as a guide for the future. The Plan contains the goals, policies, and explanatory detail about issues important to the future of Vernon. Plan policies address land use (including housing), infrastructure, public safety, resources, and noise within topic-related chapters, or"elements'. These elements are: ■ Land Use Element ■ Infrastructure Element ■ Safety Element ■ Natural Resources Element ■ Noise Element ■ Housing Element General Plan policies and programs are supported by several key documents, listed below. While not technically a part of the Plan, each contributes to the ability of the City officials and staff—as well as the public—to understand the Plan and carry out its mandates. These documents may be updated, modified, or replaced over time, and readers should seek the current version for reference. These additional documents are: ■ Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) and Monitoring Plan for the General Plan ■ Implementation Plan Introduction-5 Vernon General Plan Introduction ■ Five-Year Capital Improvements Program ■ Urban Water Management Plan ■ Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan ■ Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) Multi-hazard Functional Plan Other documents may be prepared over time to support implementation of the General Plan policies or as may be directed by the State Legislature. These should be reviewed for additional detail regarding various proposals contained in the General Plan. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT IN DEVELOPING THE GENERALPLAN As part of the General Plan program, the City undertook a public outreach program to identify issues and establish a new General Plan policy foundation. The outreach program included a City mailer, scoping meeting, and public hearings. The City distributed a mailer to property and business owners in Vernon regarding the General Plan. The mailer asked the Vernon business community to identify issues that can be addressed by the General Plan. Comments returned to the City were recognized in developing the General Plan. Those attending the scoping session (held in accord with the requirements of CEQA) were also given the opportunity to comment on the Public Review Daft of the Plan and the Zoning Ordinance. Prior to adoption of the General Plan, the Draft General Plan and associated Environmental Impact Report were circulated for public review and comment. Public hearings were conducted before the Vernon City Council. RELATIONSHIP OF VERNON GENERAL PLAN TO STATE REQUIREMENTS FOR PLANS This General Plan contains six elements, as well as a comprehensive Implementation Plan. These elements relate to the seven elements mandated by State law as follows: Introduction-6 Vernon General Plan Introduction Table 1-1 Relationship of Vernon General Plan to Mandated State Elements Vernon General Plan Elements State Required Elements Land Use Land Use Circulation and Circulation Infrastructure Safety Public Safety Noise Noise Natural Resources Open Space Conservation Housing Housing RELATED PLANS AND PROGRAMS State law places the General Plan atop the hierarchy of land use planning regulations, although, as a Charter City, Vernon's Zoning Ordinance is its governing law as to land use. The General Plan provides guidance to the City Council in enacting ordinances relating to zoning, land use, public improvements, and development programs. Also, regional goverrunental agencies, such as the Southern California Association of Governments and the South Coast Air Quality Management District, have been established in recognition of the fact that planning issues extend beyond the boundaries of individual cities. Efforts to address regional planning issues such as air quality, transportation, and housing needs have resulted in the adoption of regional plans. The policies Vernon adopts are affected by these plans. The following paragraphs describe ordinances, plans, and programs which should be considered in association with the General Plan in development and planning decisions. Federal Plans and Programs National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System As part of a multi-pronged effort to improve the quality of water resources nationwide, the federal government authorized the State Regional Water Quality Control Board and its regional offices such as the Los Angeles Regional Introduction-7 Vernon General Plan Introduction Water Quality Control Board to set up programs to implement National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) goals. Under the NPDES Stormwater Permit issued to the County of Los Angeles and Vernon as a co-permittee, most new development projects in the City are required to incorporate measures to minimize pollutant levels in stormwater runoff. Compliance is required at the time that construction permits are issued, as well as over the long term through periodic inspections. National Flood Insurance Program The Federal Emergency Management Agency administers the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The NFIP provides federal flood insurance subsidies and federally financed loans for eligible property owners in flood-prone areas. Vernon has no mapped flood hazard areas. Clean WaterAct Congress passed the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972 and the Clean Water Act (CWA) of 1977 to provide for the restoration and maintenance of the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the nation's lakes, streams, and coastal waters. Primary authority for the implementation and enforcement of the CWA (33 U.S.C. 1251) now rests with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and, to a lesser extent, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. In addition to the measures authorized before 1972, the CWA implements a variety of programs, including: federal effluent limitations and state water quality standards; permits for the discharge of pollutants and dredged and fill materials into navigable waters; and enforcement mechanisms. Section 404 of the CWA is the principal federal program that regulates activities affecting the integrity of wetlands. California State Plans and Programs California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) was adopted by the state legislature in 1970 in response to a public mandate for thorough environmental analysis of projects impacting the environment. The provisions of the law and environmental review procedure are described in the CEQA Law and Guidelines. CEQA is the instrument for ensuring that environmental impacts of local development projects are Introduction-8 Vernon General Plan Introduction appropriately assessed and mitigated, and if not fully mitigated, ensuring that project benefits to the community are substantial. The Department of Community Services reviews projects for conformance with CEQA. California Noise Insulation Standards(Title 24) In 1974, the California Commission on Housing and Community Development adopted noise insulation standards for residential buildings (Title 24, Part 2, California Code of Regulations). Title 24 establishes standards for interior room noise (attributable to outside noise sources). The regulations also specify that acoustical studies must be prepared whenever a residential building or structure is proposed to be located near an existing or adopted freeway route, expressway, parkway, major street, thoroughfare, rail line, rapid transit line, or industrial noise source, and where such noise source or sources create an exterior CNEL (or Ldn) of 60 dB or greater. Such acoustical analysis must demonstrate that the residence has been designed to limit intruding noise to an interior CNEL (or Ldn) of at least 45 dB. The Department of Community Services enforces Title 24. Seismic Hazards Mapping Act California's 1990 Seismic Hazards Mapping Act requires the State Geologist to compile maps identifying and describing seismic hazard zones throughout California. Guidelines prepared by the State Mining and Geology Board identify the responsibilities of state and local agencies in the review of development within seismic hazard zones. Development on a site that has been designated as a seismic hazard zone requires a geotechnical report, and local agency consideration of the policies and criteria established by the Mining and Geology Board. Over the years, the program has expanded to include mapping of seismic-related hazards such as liquefaction- and landslide-prone areas. The Safety Element discusses seismic hazards associated with faults and those identified on state seismic hazard maps. Vernon contains only liquefaction-prone areas. The Safety Element contains a map identifying these areas. AB 32 Assembly Bill 32, the Global Warming Solutions Act (passed in 2006), sets the target of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases statewide to 1990 levels by 2020. The bill assigned the task of coming up with a scoping plan for this reduction to the Introduction-9 Vernon General Plan Introduction California Air Resources Board (GARB). This plan, which CARB's board approved in December 2008, has a range of greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction actions which include direct regulations, alternative compliance mechanisms, monetary and non-monetary incentives,voluntary actions, market-based mechanisms such as a cap-and-trade system, and an AB 32 cost of implementation fee regulation to fund the program. SB 375 Senate Bill 375 (2008) takes aim at reducing the single largest source of greenhouse gases in California—emissions from passenger vehicles—by working to reduce vehicle miles traveled. The law prompts California regions to work together to lower these emissions, and requires the integration of planning processes for transportation, land use, and housing. SB 375 requires CARB to develop regional reduction targets for automobiles and light trucks GHG emissions. The regions, in turn, are tasked with creating "sustainable communities strategies," which combine transportation and land use elements to achieve the emissions reduction target, if feasible. Vernon is cooperating with these efforts. The Gateway Cities Council of Governments,comprised of 26 local cities including Vernon, completed a Subregional Sustainable Communities Strategy, which is a part of the SCAG Sustainable Communities Strategy. Vernon is also part of the larger Southern California Association of Governments, or SCAG, and as such participates in the development and implementation of the Sustainable Communities Strategy for the SCAG region. Regional and County Level Plans and Programs SCAG Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide The Southern California Association of Governments undertakes regional planning for the six-county SCAG region of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Imperial, and Ventura counties. SCAG's efforts focus on developing regional strategies to minimize traffic congestion, protect environmental quality, and provide adequate housing. The Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide sets forth broad goals intended to be implemented by participating local and regional jurisdictions and the South Coast Air Quality Management District. SCAG has adopted companion documents to the Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide, most notably the Regional Transportation Plan (see below). Introduction-10 Vernon General Plan Introduction Congestion Management Plan The Congestion Management Plan (CMP) is a program adopted by the state legislature and approved by the voters in 1990 through Proposition 111. As a new approach to addressing congestion concerns, the CMP was created for the following purposes: ■ To link land use, transportation, and air quality decisions ■ To develop a partnership among transportation decision-makers on devising appropriate transportation solutions that include all modes of travel ■ To propose transportation projects which are eligible to compete for state gas tax funds The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) is responsible for preparing the County's CMP. Metro is required by state law to monitor local implementation of all CMP elements. Local jurisdictions are required to monitor arterial congestion levels, monitor transit services along certain corridors, and implement an adopted trip reduction ordinance and land use analysis program. Regional Transportation Plan The Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) is a component of the Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide prepared by SCAG to address regional issues, goals, objectives, and policies for the Southern California region into the early part of the 21st century. The RTP, which SCAG periodically updates to address changing conditions in the Southland, has been developed with active participation from local agencies throughout the region, elected officials, the business community, community groups, private institutions, and private citizens. The RTP sets broad goals for the region, and provides strategies to reduce problems related to congestion and mobility. In recognition of the close relationship between the traffic and air quality issues, the assumptions, goals, and programs contained in the Plan parallel those used to prepare the Air Quality Management Plan. Introduction-11 Vernon General Plan Introduction Air Quality Management Plan The federal Clean Air Act requires preparation of plans to improve air quality in any region designated as a nonattainment area. The Air Quality Management Plan, or AQMP, prepared by the South Coast Air Quality Management District, first adopted in 1994 and updated on a three-year cycle, contains policies and measures designed to achieve federal and state air quality standards within the South Coast Air Basin. The assumptions and programs in the AQMP draw directly from regional goals, objectives, and assumptions in SCAG's Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide. City Level Plans and Programs Vernon Zoning Ordinance In recognition of the City's industrial nature, the City's Zoning Ordinance establishes one Zone (the Industrial Zone) throughout the City, and provides for several Overlay Zones. The Zoning Ordinance establishes land use regulations for the City and each Overlay Zone with respect to permitted uses, allowable intensity, and development standards. The Zoning Ordinance explains the purposes of the Industrial Zone and each Overlay Zone, specifies permitted uses and conditional uses, and establishes development standards, and includes a map describing the location of each Overlay Zone. The Zoning Ordinance is the governing land use law for the City, and to the degree practical,implements the goals,policies, and development expectations established in Vernon's Land Use Plan. Urban Water Management Plan Vernon's Urban Water Management Plan provides the long- term plan and vision for managing its water resources and providing a reliable supply of water to its customers. The Plan details water supplies, water quality impacts, water demand management measures, water shortage contingency plan, and water recycling methods. Water Department Emergency Response and Recovery Plan The Vernon Water Department Emergency Response and Recovery Plan is designed to prepare the City's Water Department for a planned response to emergency situations associated with natural disasters, technological incidents, and Introduction-12 Vernon General Plan Introduction natural security emergencies in, or affecting Vernon Water Department's facilities and its service area. The plan is consistent with the requirements of Government Section 8607 and is intended to be used in conjunction with the State Emergency Plan. Standardized Emergency Management System Multi- Hazard Functional Plan Vernon's Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) Multi-Hazard Function Plan addresses the City's planned response to extraordinary emergency situations associated with natural disasters, technological incidents, and natural security emergencies. The plan does not address normal day-to-day emergencies or the well-established and routine procedure used in coping with such emergencies. Instead, the operational concepts reflected in this Plan focus on potential large-scale disasters, which can generate unique situations requiring unusual emergency responses. Introduction-13 Vernon General Plan Introduction This page intentionally left blank. Introduction-14 VERNON GENERAL PLAN LAND USE ELEMENT Vernon General Plan Land Use Element -xz ��• lot .a LAND USE ELEMENT 1.0 PURPOSE AND FOCUS 1.1 Purpose of this Element This Land Use Element establishes the broad, general policies for how properties are used in Vernon, including location, distribution, type, and intensity of development, with the overarching goal of maintaining Vernon as an industrial city. The Land Use Policy Map graphically illustrates the planned pattern of land use in Vernon and the City's sphere of influence, which consists of unincorporated lands adjacent to Vernon which have a bearing and influence on properties in the City. The General Plan and Land Use Element goals and policies provide guidance to the City Council and City officials regarding zoning, land subdivision, public improvements, and physical development programs. The Land Use Element and the circulation portion of the Circulation and Infrastructure Element are closely tied. It is intended that the land use patterns and intensities permitted by Land Use Element policies be supported by the streets, Land Use Element-1 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element highways, and other transportation systems planned in the Circulation and Infrastructure Element. Vernon recognizes that its street system is constrained by long-established development patterns, and land use policies have been crafted accordingly to minimize the adverse effects of specific land uses on the local street system. To continue to attract and support industrial businesses, the City must be able to accommodate the vehicular traffic associated with desired uses. With regard to housing, long-standing City policy has been to discourage housing, recognizing that the traffic, noise, and odors that industrial uses produce are generally incompatible with residential development. In the past, land use policy limited housing to existing, long-established single-family homes and apartments. However, in 2011 the City Council committed to implementing new good governance practices that included adopting land use policies aimed at increasing the voting populous. Specifically, the City has identified specific locations where a limited amount of new housing can be constructed, and has adopted implementing zoning regulations. Recognizing Vernon's mission to remain and industrial city, the locations for housing have been selected to minimize adverse interface between industrial and residential uses. Vernon's city boundaries blur and blend into urban Los Angeles County, and many of the people working in businesses in Vernon live relatively close by in communities removed from industrial conditions and where they have access to parks, grocery stores, pharmacies, and other residential amenities. Thus, it is appropriate that new housing opportunities in Vernon remain very limited. 1.2 Focus The key policy objective of the City is to remain almost exclusively an industrial city, serving the needs of industry, including local, national, and international consumers of goods produced by manufacturers. To fulfill this objective, this Element describes a limited range of land use categories, establishes standards of use and intensity, and sets forth policies relating to use of properties. 1.3 Flood Management In 2007, the State adopted legislation that strengthened the long-existing requirement that a General Plan address flood management by specifically mandating that the Land Use Element identify flood-prone areas mapped by either the Land Use Element-2 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) or the State Department of Water Resources. Flood Insurance Rate Maps, which are prepared by FEMA, identify potential flood zones. Please refer to the Safety Element,which addresses this issue in detail. 2.0 LAND USE PLAN The Land Use Plan consists of the Land Use Policy Map and text that describes the types and intensities of permitted uses. The Land Use Plan, along with the Zoning Ordinance,provides guidance and direction for all planning and land use decisions. 2.1 Land Use Terms and Concepts In discussing how properties may be developed, this Element uses the following planning terms and concepts. Land Use Designations "Designation" means a generalized category of land use type, with associated standards of use and development. Intensity Intensity is used to describe the level of development existing or permitted on a lot or parcel of land. Intensity applies to industrial and commercial land uses. Intensity means the total Leo'.. + �� building square footage, percent of lot coverage, or floor-area 0.5 FAR ratio established on a property. The measure of intensity Vernon has adopted is the floor-area ratio. Floor-area ratio, or FAR, describes the relationship between the total square footage of development on a lot and m . the area of that lot. In general, the FAR can be determined by 1.0 FAR dividing the gross floor area of all buildings on a lot by the land area of the lot. A precise definition is contained in the Zoning Ordinance. FAR and factors such as building square footage, building height, and the percent of the lot devoted to parking, open 1.5 FAR storage, and similar uses are all interrelated. For example, a Floor Area Ratio(FAR): Gross Building Area 20,000 square-foot building on a 40,000 square-foot lot has a Lot Area FAR of 0.50:1. This 0.50:1 FAR can accommodate a single-story Figure LU-1: Floor Area Ratio building that covers half the lot or a two-story building with reduced lot coverage. Figure LU-1 illustrates different FAR calculations. Land Use Element-3 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element Density For residential uses, the term density describes the level of development permitted. New residential uses, in addition to existing homes, are permitted only at a few limited locations in the City. Land use policy limits housing at these locations by establishing a maximum allowable density. Density is described in terms of the number of dwelling units allowed per net acre (du/acre). Net acre is defined as the gross project or lot area, less that portion of the site to be used or dedicated for use as a public road and for flood control purposes. Substantive Improvements Several land use policies call for the City to take action, or for new requirements to take effect, when land uses change or when substantive improvements are made to a property. In general, if a building with a nonconforming use is vacant for more than two years, there is a voluntary major alteration or repair (defined as an alteration or repair costing more than 50% of the building's fair market value), or an increase in square footage, such change will require conformity with the permitted uses and development standards of the Zoning Ordinance. The requirements for bringing nonconforming uses into conformity with the Zoning Ordinance are described in detail in the Zoning Ordinance. v A Vernon icon:the Farmer John meat processing plant Land Use Element-4 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element 2.2 Land Use Designations and Land Use Policy Map The Land Use Policy Map, Figure LU-2, identifies the planned distribution of land use in Vernon. In recognition of Vernon's unique status as an exclusively industrial city, the General Plan contains one land use category (Industrial), and five Overlay Districts (Commercial, Rendering, Slaughtering, Housing, and Emergency Shelter). Industrial (I) - The industrial designation is purposefully structured to allow for a broad range of uses that support the City's desire to maintain its status as a regional manufacturing and industrial center. The Industrial land use designation allows manufacturing, industrial uses, refrigerated and cold storage warehouses, data centers, general warehousing, industrial gas manufacturing, and any use or activity undertaken by the City. Refineries,energy generating facilities, hazardous waste facilities, trash to energy facilities, petroleum related uses, and other complementary uses may be permitted with special approval such as a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Certain ancillary uses may be permitted in accordance with Zoning Ordinance requirements. The maximum permitted FAR is 2:1. Over/ay Districts All uses allowed in the Industrial category are permitted in the Overlay Districts. Each Overlay District allows certain specialized uses not permitted in other areas of the City. The Zoning Ordinance may impose conditions on the permitted uses and may identify appropriate development standards. The Plan provides for five Overlay Districts: ■ Commercial ■ Rendering ■ Slaughtering ■ Housing ■ Emergency Shelter Commercial Overlay District - The Commercial Overlay District, encompassing approximately 535 acres, is established along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Atlantic Boulevard, and Slauson Avenue, and along portions of Soto Street - as indicated on the Land Use Policy Map -to accommodate retail, commercial, service, and restaurant uses that support the needs Land Use Element-5 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element of the daily employee population. Such uses may be permitted with a Conditional Use Permit. Rendering Overlay District - A Rendering Overlay District, encompassing 164 acres, exists in the area indicated on the Land Use Policy Map. With a Conditional Use Permit, lots over one acre may be used for rendering. Slaughtering Overlay District - The Slaughtering Overlay District, encompassing 83 acres, is designated in the area indicated on the Land Use Policy Map. With a Conditional Use Permit, lots over one acre may be used for slaughtering of animals. Housing Overlay District - The Housing Overlay District is applicable only to sites that have been specifically identified by the City and determined to be the best locations for housing, given surrounding uses, proximity to services and amenities, and distance from large-scale industrial operations. Residential uses are permitted in this overlay with discretionary review, such as via a Development Agreement, given the ubiquitous nature of industrial businesses in Vernon. No more than 61 units shall be permitted within the Housing Overlay District citywide. Emergency Shelter Overlay District - The Emergency Shelter Overlay District is applicable only to sites that have been specifically identified by the City and determined to be appropriate locations for emergency shelters. This Overlay is established to comply with requirements of Government Code Section 65583(a)(4). 2.3 Implications of Land Use Policy Vernon is virtually built out,and at any point in time,few,if any,vacant parcels are available for development. New development only occurs as a result of land recycling,with newer,more modern industrial buildings replacing older facilities. Because many of the oldest buildings cover properties from lot line to lot line (with little or no on-site parking or loading spaces),new development frequently Land Use Element-6 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element E 22Ntl St EF E 2 t c.

Thus, implementation of land use policy over time is not anticipated to notably increase the overall intensity of development in Vernon. Rather, uses will shift among the various permitted industrial, manufacturing, and limited commercial and retail uses. Also, up to 61 additional residential units are anticipated to be constructed within the Housing Overlay District. Total building square footage and the number of employees in Vernon has steadily declined since the early 1990s. The Land Use Element anticipates a continuing decline in building square footage and employees during the period of this General Plan. Table LU-1 identifies the building square footage and employment for the baseline year (2007) and the decline in square footage and employment. This anticipated decline is taken into account in developing land use policy set forth in the Land Use Policy Map and the goals and policies contained in this Element. Table LU-1 Non-Residential Building Square Footage and Employment Projections Net Baseline Year Build-out Year Net Land Use Acreage (2007) (2025) Increase/ Percent Designation (A) Development Development Decrease Change Building Square Footage 62,636,000 61,412,300 -1,223,700 -2.0% Industrial 2,775 Employment(B) 44,600 43,700 -900 -2.0% Note: (A)Net Acreage does not include streets or the Los Angeles River. (B)Number of employees The City of Vernon has, in the past, discouraged new housing development due to potential conflicts with industry. The City has revised this policy to permit very limited new residential development in specifically designated areas, with the goal of increasing the voting population and enhancing government accountability. Land use policy will permit up to 61 new housing units via the Housing Overlay District. The population increase associated with this land use policy is estimated to be 216 additional Vernon residents, assuming the average Vernon household size reported in the 2010 Census. This land use Land Use Element-9 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element policy would triple the baseline 2010 resident population from 112 persons to an estimated 328 persons. 2.4 Relationship of Land Use Policy to the Zoning Ordinance The Zoning Ordinance is the primary implementation tool for the Land Use Element. Both the Element and the Ordinance describe the distribution and intensity limits for development. Whereas the Land Use Element sets forth the broad policies for future development, the Zoning Ordinance provides specific detail, enforcement mechanisms, development standards, and provides for deviations through Conditional Use Permits, Variances, and amendments to the Zoning Ordinance. The Zoning Ordinance includes the following zoning districts to implement land use policy: Table LU-2 Relationship of Land Use Categories and Zoning Districts Land Use Designation Corresponding Zoning District Industrial General Industrial(I) Commercial Overlay Commercial-1 (C-1) Commercial-2(C-2) Slaughtering Overly Slaughtering Overlay(S) Rendering Overlay Rendering Overlay(R) Housing Overlay Housing Overlay(H) Emergency Shelter Overlay Emergency Shelter Overlay(ES) Trucking and Freight Terminal Overlay(TF) 3.0 GOALS AND POLICIES Land use goals and policies related to land use and its distribution and intensity reflect the industrial nature of Vernon. Vernon incorporated in 1905 for the stated purpose of being an exclusively industrial city. This founding purpose has remained largely unchanged over the last century, with the focus of City land use policy on providing suitable sites for industry and providing the infrastructure and services required to serve industrial activities. Land Use Element-10 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element GOAL LU-1 Promote and maintain manufacturing and other industrial uses as the primary land use within the City. POLICY LU-1.1: Designate all properties in Vernon for manufacturing and industrial use, and permit other uses only with a Conditional Use Permit or other discretionary review process. Permit certain uses only in specified Overlay Districts with a Conditional Use Permit or other discretionary review process. POLICY LU-1.2: Accommodate, at limited and specific areas of the City, those commercial, service, and retail uses that complement but do not detract from the purposely established industrial character of the City. Limit such uses to the Commercial Overlay District, and permit only with a Conditional Use Permit or other discretionary review process. POLICY LU-1.3: Permit limited ancillary uses on industrial sites, such as limited office use and showrooms, as necessary to support basic industrial activities. POLICY LU-1.4: Permit only housing and emergency shelters as may be required by State law and as necessary to foster the City's good governance practices. Ensure adequate review of housing development proposals to minimize potential industrial/housing conflicts. POLICY LU-1.5: Permit truck and freight terminals on a limited basis to minimize the impacts associated with heavy trucking activity. Designate such permitted areas using an overlay zoning district or similar mechanism. POLICY LU-1.5: Continue to maintain up-to-date information regarding flooding hazards consistent with the Safety Element. GOAL LU-2 Phase out aging industrial building and sites through modernization and replacement. Land Use Element-11 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element POLICY LU-2.1: Require private upgrading of off- street parking and loading facilities to comply with the City Zoning Ordinance at the time that any nonconforming building or use is required to be brought into conformity with the Zoning Ordinance. POLICY LU-2.2: Support cooperative solutions to provide required off-street parking, such as agreements among neighboring businesses and public/private ventures. POLICY LU-2.3: Continue to enforce all applicable building and health and safety codes. POLICY LU-2.4: Provide incentives to property owners to revitalize industrial structures or recycle/demolish obsolete or vacant structures. POLICY LU-2.5: Assist in the reuse of properties from one industrial use to another. POLICY LU-2.6: Accommodate the expansion of Soto Street north of 37th Street/Bandini Boulevard pursuant to Circulation and Infrastructure Element policy by requiring properties with frontage along this corridor to dedicate land to the public right-of- way sufficient to accommodate the roadway widening in the event that such properties redevelop or undergo substantial improvements. POLICY LU-2.7: Consider and facilitate proposals for more intensive employment-generating, non- residential development near transit stops. GOAL LU-3 Maintain Vernon as a highly desirable location for industry, and continue to attract the types of industry the City is well positioned to serve. POLICY LU-3.1: Review City codes and development requirements on a regular basis to ensure that development costs and standards are competitive with other industrial cities. Land Use Element-12 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element POLICY LU-3.2: Foster a City government and governmental structure that is responsive to the needs of industry located in a metropolitan area. POLICY LU-3.3: Maintain power plants as key land use in the community, and allow for the expansion and/or development of new facilities to provide a reliable, cost-effective source of energy to industrial users. POLICY LU-3.4: Invest in activities and programs that advertise and promote Vernon as a quality and desirable location for industry. POLICY LU-3.5: Use development proposals as opportunities to encourage modernization and broaden property improvements goals. Land Use Element-13 Vernon General Plan Land Use Element This page intentionally left blank. Land Use Element-14 VERNON GENERAL PLAN CIRCULATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE ELEMENT Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element ti +3 1 ki I.} CIRCULATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE ELEMENT 1.0 PURPOSE AND FOCUS 1.1 Purpose The Circulation and Infrastructure Element addresses the movement of goods and people along roadways and railways in the City, as well as the distribution of water, wastewater, stormwater, energy, and information through various conduits. Vernon's industrial nature involves both manufacturing and logistics. Vernon originally was oriented around rail transport, but over the years goods movement has relied increasingly on trucks, thus heightening the importance of a local street system capable of safely and efficiently handling multi-axle truck traffic. In addition to good access to transportation, industrial businesses demand reliable, high-volume utilities to properly conduct their operations. Intense land uses require large amounts of electricity and water, and also generate large amounts of sewage. Today's globalized Circulation and Infrastructure Eletnent-1 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element economy demands fast, high-capacity telephone and other communications systems. To remain competitive as a location for industry, Vernon must be able to deliver or otherwise provide high-quality utility services at competitive prices. 1.2 Focus California planning law requires the inclusion of a Circulation Element addressing both transportation and non-transportation infrastructure. While all elements of the General Plan must be consistent with each other, the Circulation Element must, by State law, correlate directly to the Land Use Element. 2.0 CIRCULATION PLAN 2.1 Regional Circulation Streets and Freeways Vernon lies two miles southeast of the industrial areas of downtown Los Angeles, and both the local roadway and freeway systems directly connect the industrial businesses in Vernon with industrial development in adjacent communities. Key connections include: ■ Downtown Los Angeles, via Alameda Street and Santa Fe Avenue; ■ The Boyle Heights district of the City of Los Angeles, via Soto Street, Washington Boulevard, and Downey Road; ■ The City of Commerce, via Washington Boulevard, Interstate 710,and Atlantic Boulevard; ■ The City of Bell, via Bandini Boulevard and Interstate 710; ■ The City of Maywood,via Atlantic Boulevard; ■ The City of Huntington Park, via Slauson Avenue, Soto Street, Pacific Boulevard, Santa Fe Avenue, and Alameda Street; ■ Portions of the City of Los Angeles south of downtown, connected by many streets across the shared boundary of Alameda Street, including Vernon Avenue and Santa Fe Avenue. Of particular note is the Long Beach Freeway, Interstate 710. Circulation and Infrastructure Element-2 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Interstate 710 provides an important direct connection to the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles. Although less than half a mile of this freeway traverses Vernon, that portion contains the very busy Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard interchange. This frequently congested interchange carries a substantial amount of truck traffic from Vernon, particularly from the adjacent Hobart Rail Yard. In August of 2004, the Gateway Cities Council of Governments made preliminary recommendations to improve the Atlantic/Bandini interchange, as well as to build truck ramps directly from the rail yards to the freeway. Engineering plans and studies for this interchange will continue in concert with broader plans for improvements to I-710, with improvements to the interchange expected be accomplished prior to 2030. The timing will depend upon State approvals and funding. Once implemented, the interchange improvements are expected to relieve a major traffic bottleneck and improve safety by separating autos from heavy truck traffic. The City has undertaken a project to partially relieve congestion at the Atlantic/Bandini interchange. The extension of 26th Street to Bandini Boulevard will provide a means for through traffic to bypass the Atlantic/Bandini interchange. Rai/roads In the early years of the twentieth century, rail transport dominated the distribution of materials and manufactured goods, so an extensive rail network was built in Vernon with main lines, switching yards, and many spur lines to serve industrial properties. Over the years, trucks have come to play a more important role in freight transport, especially for access to individual businesses. Some spur rail lines have been abandoned, but rail traffic still plays a major role in the transport of materials and goods. Several rail lines cross Vernon, the most important of which is the Alameda Corridor. The Alameda Corridor, opened in 2002, serves as the primary connection between the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and the rail yards of Vernon, Commerce, and downtown Los Angeles. The Alameda Corridor places ten miles of track inside the 30- foot-deep Mid-Corridor Trench between the northern Circulation and Infrastructure Element-3 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element boundary of Vernon at 25th Street south to the State Route 91 freeway. This has eliminated many dangerous and time-consuming conflicts between surface street traffic and at-grade rail crossings, both in Vernon and elsewhere along the line. While the Alameda Corridor takes much of the container shipping traffic that would otherwise use trucks or the older Union Pacific (UP) or Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) lines, the older lines do still receive some use. Many at-grade rail crossings remain in the City. These should gradually decrease as the City encourages rail lines to merge facilities, to abandon spur lines, and to participate in separating streets from remaining railways. The Hobart Yard, located in the northeastern portion of Vernon, links the Alameda Corridor and BNSF lines with the wider transcontinental rail system, serving to assemble longer trains and transfer shipping containers between trucks and trains. Vernon is also home to the smaller Malabar Yard (east of Santa Fe Avenue between Fruitland Avenue and Vernon Avenue), the Los Angeles Junction Yard (between Exchange Boulevard and the Los Angeles River),and a portion of the UP East Yard. Other important rail yards are located nearby but outside of the Vernon city limits. 2.2 Vernon's Street System Streets in Vernon generally form a grid pattern, although not a regularly spaced grid. Many of the City's streets do not extend more than two or three blocks, with many T- intersections. To accommodate large industrial lots, most streets in Vernon are spaced farther apart than is typical in urban residential or commercial areas; most blocks in the City are between 600 and 2,000 feet long. 2.2.1 Street Classification Vernon's street system is differentiated by roadway size, function, and capacity. The four basic types of roadways in Vernon are described below. Figure CI-1 presents schematic cross-sections for each type of roadway that represent desirable standards. Deviations from these standards may occur in cases where physical constraints and/or right-of-way limitations are present. Provision of sidewalks and off-street parking may also affect the specific design of roadways. In addition, the median Circulation and Infrastructure Element-4 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element width of arterials and collectors will vary according to the area being served, right-of-way constraints, and turn lane requirements. The assignment of these classifications to streets in the City is shown on the Circulation Plan,Figure CI-2. Freeway Freeways are controlled-access, high-speed throughways included in the State and federal highway systems. Freeways carry regional through traffic, that is, traffic passing through Vernon without stopping in the City. The Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard interchange of the I-710, the Long Beach Freeway, is in Vernon. Access to the regional highway system for Vernon businesses and visitors is provided at the interchange between I-710, Atlantic Boulevard, and Bandini Boulevard. The design, construction, and maintenance of freeways are under the jurisdiction of the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). Arterial Arterial streets, together with freeways, form a network carrying long-distance, high-speed traffic. Arterial streets transport large volumes of traffic from one part of the City to another and connect to the regional street system. The arterial streets also move traffic between cities in locations where a freeway does not link the two. Of the roadways designed, constructed, and maintained by the City, arterials are designed to have the highest traffic carrying capacity, the highest speeds, and limited interference with traffic flow by driveways. Limitations on truck access to and from abutting properties are most important on arterial streets to prevent obstructions and delays. Arterial streets aligned generally north-south in Vernon are,from west to east: ■ Alameda Street ■ Santa Fe Avenue ■ Pacific Avenue (this curves broadly from north- south to east-west before continuing as Vernon Avenue) ■ Soto Street ■ Downey Road ■ Atlantic Boulevard Circulation and Infrastructure Eletnent-5 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Figure CI-1: Street Cross Sections Arterial 80 to 120 FT 64 to 104 FT Collector Streets 80 FT Minimum 64 FT Local Streets 60 to 65 FT 42 to 49 FT NOTES 1.

Collectors are designed primarily to move traffic, but also to provide access to abutting properties. Collectors differ from arterials in that collectors distribute trips from the arterials to ultimate destinations. Conversely, collectors also collect traffic from local streets and channel it onto the arterials. Ideally, collector streets should form a network, but with no one collector extending so far that it functions as an arterial street. Collector streets in Vernon aligned generally north-south include: ■ Boyle Avenue Collector streets aligned generally east-west in Vernon are, from north to south: ■ 25th Street/26th Street ■ 38th Street/37th Street (these two streets flow into each other, and continue as Bandini Boulevard east of Soto Street) ■ Vernon Avenue (this street is discontinuous and offset at Santa Fe Avenue) ■ Leonis Boulevard (this street continues as District Boulevard east of Downey Road) ■ District Boulevard east of Atlantic Boulevard ■ Fruitland Avenue Local Local streets provide direct access to individual parcels. The local street is not designed for through traffic. Rather, local streets should move traffic toward the nearest Circulation and Infrastructure Element-8 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element collector street. Therefore, speeds on local streets are relatively low, and on-street parking is usually permitted. Local streets are two-lane roadways without medians. When traffic congestion is detected through closed circuit detection cameras and/or via electronic traffic loops, the current signal patterns are adjusted to relieve or reduce the congestion. 2.2.2 Measuring roadway performance Evaluating the ability of the circulation system to serve Vernon's businesses and other users requires establishing suitable performance criteria. Within the Circulation and Infrastructure Element, two measures are used to describe traffic flow on Vernon's roadways and freeway access points: Volume to Capacity Ratios (V/C) and Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU). These measures are used to establish Level of Service (LOS) categories describing the performance of roadways and access points throughout the City. Each of these measures is described briefly below. Volume to Capacity Ratio (V/C) This measure, consisting of a ratio between volume and theoretical capacity, is used to measure the performance of roadway facilities. Volume is established either by a traffic count (in the case of current volumes) or by a forecast for a future point in time. Capacity refers to the vehicle carrying ability of a roadway at free flow speed, and is a critical component of roadway design. For example, a roadway that carries 16,000 vehicles per day, with the capacity to accommodate 20,000 vehicles per day at free flow speed,has a V/C of 0.80. Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) This measure is applied using peak hour volumes and considers the geometric configuration of intersections when measuring capacity. Intersection Capacity Utilization sums the V/C ratios for the critical movements of an intersection, and thus accounts for the overall performance of intersections, which are the most critical limitations within the City roadway system. Level of Service (LOS) Level of Service (LOS) describes the efficiency and quality of traffic operations. Six categories of LOS - the letter designations A to F -are used to identify traffic conditions, with LOS A representing excellent conditions and LOS F Circulation and Infrastructure Eletnent-9 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element representing extreme congestion. The LOS designations are based upon V/C ratios calculated for freeway access ramps and roadway segments, as well as ICU values calculated for intersections. Table CI-1 shows V/C and ICU ranges and the corresponding LOS,with a description of corresponding traffic conditions. The City of Vernon uses LOS D as its minimum standard for traffic operations. Table CIA Level of Service Descriptions Level V/C or of Description of Traffic Conditions ICU Service Very short delays at intersections and free flow 0.00- A operation. Vehicles are completely unimpeded 0.60 and can maneuver freely within traffic. Short delays of 10 to 20 seconds at intersections. 0.61- B Vehicles are completely unimpeded and can 0.70 maneuver through traffic. Stable flow,with delays of 20 to 35 seconds at 0.71 - intersections. Some waiting vehicles may fail to 0.80 C go through the intersection before the green light turns red. Ability to maneuver and change lanes at mid-block is somewhat restricted. Congestion becomes more noticeable,with delays 0.81 - D of 35 to 55 seconds at intersections. Many 0.90 vehicles are required to stop at signals,and travel speeds along these roadways become slower. Unstable traffic flow,with delays of 55 to 80 0.91 - E seconds at intersections. Most vehicles are 1.00 re uired to wait at least one traffic signal cycle. Traffic volumes exceed capacity,resulting in Above F jammed intersections. This can result in delays 1.00 greater than 80 seconds,and/or two-cycle signal waits. Source: Highway Capacity Manual 2000,Transportation Research Board,National Research Council Circulation and Infrastructure Element-10 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element 2.2.3 Circulation System Improvements Needed to Meet Level of Service Goals The City is investigating the following programs with the intent of improving the overall traffic flows throughout Vernon during morning and evening peak hours. These programs include physical improvements, such as widening streets, as well as advanced technological strategies, such as monitoring traffic flows using video and computer systems. Transportation System Management Although widening some roads in Vernon may help in reducing traffic congestion, Vernon must pursue alternative cost effective and efficient methods in improving traffic flows. Due to narrow streets and limited right-of-ways, Vernon's traffic congestion can no longer be resolved by capacity enhancements such as lane re-striping or roadway widening. An alternative strategy is implementation of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), which allows a city to control traffic signals by using advanced computer technologies, monitor traffic using video monitoring, and provide traveler information to motorists. The City intends to work toward implementing ITS systems at strategic locations to improve traffic flows. The City recommends implementing an ITS program, the Los Angeles County automated traffic surveillance and control (ATSAC) system, in an effort to improve traffic flow and increase capacity throughout the City. Traffic signal surveillance and control is a developing method of measuring the efficiency of traffic signal systems. This approach consists of installation of surveillance cameras and traffic volume counters to monitor traffic flow. Implementation of a citywide ATSAC system will improve many of the deficient intersections to an acceptable level of service. In addition to the ATSAC system, the following physical improvements will also help alleviate traffic congestion in the City. 26th Street Extension The City is planning to improve east to west access, near the 1-710 Freeway and Atlantic Boulevard, by extending 26th Street easterly across Atlantic Boulevard and connecting with Bandini Boulevard. This improvement Circulation and Infrastructure Element-11 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element will help improve intersection conditions at Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard/I-710 Freeway interchange. Atlantic Boulevard Bridge Widening The City of Vernon is planning to widen the Atlantic Boulevard Bridge over the Los Angeles River. The project plans to widen bridge to six lanes. Soto Street Widening Soto Street is a key north-south arterial that brings traffic from Interstate 10 to and through Vernon. Of the north- south arterials in the City,Soto Street has the best ability to handle higher volumes, and particularly through volumes. In 2002, the City of Vernon conducted the Soto Street Corridor Study to identify the best way to improve traffic flow along Soto Street and also relieve peak-hour congestions on parallel arterials. The preferred alternative involves widening Soto Street from four lanes to six lanes, three in each direction. This configuration requires widening the public right-of-way between 37th Street/Bandini Boulevard and Olympic Boulevard. Widening the public right-of-way will require each property owner with frontage along this section of Soto Street to dedicate between eight and 14 feet of property, depending on location,to public use. The City will require this dedication when a property undergoes a complete redevelopment or substantial improvement. The City may also proactively acquire some rights-of-way to achieve the planned configuration. When fully implemented, this plan will allow traffic to move more freely on Soto Street, improving the Level of Service. It will also have a secondary traffic-moderating effect on nearby streets. 1-710 Freeway Improvements In a regional effort to improve truck movement from the ports to inland areas and overall increase the capacity of the 1-710 Freeway, Caltrans has embarked on a major improvement program for the I-710 Freeway. The following improvements have been identified for the I-710 Freeway, between Slauson Avenue and Washington Boulevard, which will significantly contribute to traffic improvements in Vernon: Circulation and Infrastructure Element-12 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element ■ The addition of two dedicated truck lanes with direct access to Hobart Rail Yard; ■ Added general purpose lanes on the Freeway; ■ Modication of Atlantic and Bandini Boulevards interchange; ■ Addition of Slauson Avenue interchange; ■ Closure of Washington Boulevard Interchange;and ■ Extension of District Boulevard and creation of new intersection at Slauson Avenue. 2.3 Off-Street Parking and Loading Facilities Vernon's streets support a significant load of heavy truck traffic. Since the street system was developed early in the twentieth century, streets are typically narrower than industrial street standards, and the streets were not designed to handle today's truck sizes and volume of traffic. Large multi-axle vehicles encounter difficulties maneuvering on the streets, and congestion and traffic back-ups frequently occur as trucks enter and leave properties. Many properties have small driveways and inadequate loading bays, and trucks making these difficult maneuvers to access properties can block traffic and cause delays. Further contributing to on-street congestion is significant on-street parking. Many businesses do not provide adequate off-street parking for employees, largely because the properties were developed before parking of any maginitude was required. As properties transition to other uses, creating sufficient off-street parking to meet current zoning standards is extremely difficult. The City has considered many approaches to addressing the problems associated with inadequate off-street parking and loading facilities, including establishing criteria (such as vacancy in the building for over a year, major alteration or repair, or increase in square footage of a building) that would require the owner of a non-conforming property to bring parking and loading facilities into compliance with the City's zoning standards. However, the widespread nature of the non-conformities makes this a difficult and costly proposition. Thus, the City will look to implement over time a variety of techniques to minimize congestion resulting from on-street parking and undersized or poorly configured loading facilities,which may include: ■ Restricting truck movements at key intersections and along key road segments; Circulation and Infrastructure Element-13 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element ■ Allowing for development of shared parking facilities; ■ Establishing parking restrictions along key travel corridors;and ■ Requiring that parking and loading comply with current zoning code requirements whenever substantial property modifications are proposed, the property has been vacant for over a year, or there is a proposed increase in floor area. 2.4 Other Transportation Modes Vernon is served by buses operated by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority (Metro). As an important center of employment, several Metro bus lines serve Vernon, providing an important alternative to personal automobiles as a means of commuting to and from work. Buses are particularly important for Vernon for several reasons. First, they provide transportation for workers who may be low income and cannot readily afford an automobile or gasoline. Second,by reducing the number of cars on the road, they reduce traffic and conflicts between cars and heavy trucks. Third, bus service reduces the strain on employers to provide parking for their workers. Located west of the City of Vernon, the Metro's Blue Line light rail system also provides an important regional link for Vernon commuters. The Blue Line has a station at Vernon Avenue, approximately one-quarter mile west of the City boundary. From this station or adjacent stations at Washington Boulevard or Slauson Avenue, workers may walk to their workplaces or connect to one of several bus lines. While bicycles represent an additional mode of travel, biking is not encouraged on Vernon's streets due to the heavy truck traffic and narrow configuration of many streets, which would present dangers to cyclists. The City of Vernon will cooperate with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority and other local agencies in their efforts to complete a bicycle path along the levee of the Los Angeles River connecting downtown Los Angeles with the waterfront in Long Beach. Circulation and Infrastructure Element-14 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element 3.0 MEETING INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS 3.1 Water and Wastewater Three water agencies supply water to the businesses, residents, and utilities in Vernon (see Figure CI-3). The majority of the City's water is supplied by the City of Vernon's Water Department. The area north of the Los Angeles River and east of a line just west of Indiana Street is supplied by the California Water Service Company (Cal Water), East Los Angeles District. The small portion of Vernon south of the Los Angeles River and east of Atlantic Boulevard is serviced by Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3. The City of Vernon water system has received a Class I rating, the highest possible, by the Insurance Service Organization. The City's water distribution system consists of 250,000 linear feet of pipe, nine wells, seven ground-level reservoirs, one elevated tank, and a below- ground reservoir. The total storage capacity is 16 million gallons. In addition, Vernon has a direct interconnection to the Metropolitan Water District (MWD). The MWD connection provides both a supplemental water source and an emergency supply in the event of a major power outage. The average pressure in the distribution systems is about 75 pounds per square inch (psi). Details of the sources and levels of water consumption used by the City of Vernon Water Department are provided in the Resources Element. The City owns its own sewerge collection system which discharges into the system managed by the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts (LACSD). The majority of Vernon is within District 23, but also contains territory in Districts 1 and 2.

This agreement provides for the operation and maintenance of an interconnected Joint Operating System of wastewater collection, treatment, reuse, and disposal facilities across a large portion of the urban region. The Joint Operating System includes the following treatment plants: ■ Joint Water Pollution Control Plant, Carson; ■ Whittier Narrows Water Reclamation Plant (WRP), near South El Monte; ■ Los Coyotes WRP, Cerritos; ■ San Jose Creek WRP,near Industry; ■ Long Beach WRP, Long Beach; and ■ Pomona WRP,Pomona. All of the sewerage generated in Vernon is treated by the Joint Water Pollution Control agency. 3.2 Storm Drainage Stormwater runoff in Vernon is conveyed through local and and Los Angeles County Flood Control District storm drainage systems. Discharges are regulated under an existing NPDES permit for municipal stormwater (NPDES Permit CAS004001, Order No. 01-182, and in particular, Subsection 8.14.6.3-Industrial Stormwater). This permit was not written specifically for Vernon; it covers most of Los Angeles County and includes Vernon as a co- permittee. The permit establishes a framework of requirements for monitoring discharges and water quality, performing best management practices, and submitting reports to the Regional Water Quality Control Board, Los Angeles Region. To address growing concerns with stormwater runoff contamination in urban areas, the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWCB) looks for co- permittees to capture and treat runoff on individual parcels at the time properties are redeveloped. The LARWCB policy is to seek to infiltrate as much of the stormwater as practical. In Vernon, this approach is difficult,primarily due to the industrial nature of the City and the potential for ground water contamination and the need to utilize available surface area to meet parking and loading requirements. The City supports a more comprehensive approach and will continue to explore Circulation and Infrastructure Element-17 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element options to meet NPDES requirements creatively and in ways that can help achieve other City goals as well. 3.3 Electrical Generation and Distribution The City of Vernon operates its own Light and Power Department, supplying customers throughout the City with reliable and comparatively low-cost electrical power. The City generates electrical power and also purchases power from third-party suppliers through its connection with the Southern California Edison bulk power system and the Cal-ISO grid at the Laguna Bell Substation. For many years, the City's power-generating facility has supplied local customers with local power, supplemented as needed through connections to the grid. More recently, the Malburg Generating Station,which is a combined cycle plant with two natural-gas-fired combustion turbines and one steam turbine, has been providing additional power. However, in an effort to be able to supply nearly all of the local electrical demand,the City intends to construct a new natural gas-fired power plant at 3200 Fruitland Avenue. When constructed, the Vernon Power Plant is expected to have a capacity of 914 megawatts of electric power using three natural-gas-fired combustion turbines and one steam turbine. Vernon anticipates that when this facility is operational, Vernon will not need to import electricity from outside sources, and will even be able to contribute to the regional electricity reserves through a line connecting the plant to Southern California Edison s Laguna Bell substation in Commerce. 3.4 Communications and Information Technology To attract new businesses and to accommodate businesses' ever-changing telecommunications needs, Vernon has established a network of fiber-optic cables in the City. This enables businesses to receive exceptionally clear telephone and internet service, giving Vernon an advantage when competing for business. The City will continue to be proactive in developing telecommunications systems beneficial to businesses, including the development of data centers in the City. Circulation and Infrastructure Element-18 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element 3.5 Gas System As a means of attracting and retaining industrial users, the City has developed a system for transporting and providing natural gas to businesses within the City at competitive prices. The City is currently providing natural gas to the Malburg Generating Plant and other businesses. A fully developed distribution system exists and connection is available to all businesses. 4.0 GOALS AND POLICIES To support the needs of existing businesses in Vernon and to attract new enterprises consistent with the City's vision to remain an industrial city, Vernon will continue to improve its infrastructure - from the street system to energy facilities to communications systems.

Circulation and Infrastructure Element-23 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element This page intentionally left blank. Circulation and Infrastructure Element-24 VERNON GENERAL PLAN Adopted February 2013 2014-2021 HOUSING ELEMENT Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element JY .� ly Y HOUSING ELEMENT 1.0 INTRODUCTION Vernon is located near the geographic center of Los Angeles County. The City is bounded on the north and west by Los Angeles, on the east by Commerce and Bell, and on the south by Huntington Park and Maywood. Vernon is three miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles (Figure H-1) and 15 miles north of major harbor and port facilities in San Pedro and Long Beach. The City's fully industrial nature generally creates conflicts with housing due to safety and environmental concerns. The Southern California Council of Governments (SCAG) historically has assigned Vernon very low housing production goals - and in the case of this cycle, a Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) of two units - in recognition of Vernon's unique status as city devoted almost exclusively to industrial uses. Past City policy has precluded the development of any new residential units due to potential conflicts with industry. However, efforts by the City to create and implement a number of reforms and initiatives to enhance the accountability and transparency of its government and better provide for the Housing Element-1 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element welfare of its residents and businesses have led to a policy change regarding housing. Specifically, the City of Vernon has established a policy to increase the City's population to enhance government accountability through the construction of approximately 30 to 50 new non-City owned housing units, including units specifically designated for low- and very low- income households. Also, the City of Vernon is committed to maintaining the existing,long-established housing stock of 31 units. 101 Burbank - ti Pasadena - -r Glendale Monrovia _L©.., _ Arcadia Temple City west 101 Alhambra - Hollywood El Monte Beverly \ i Wills - Rosemead §-Los Angeles - C South.

It is the only element which must be reviewed by the State for completeness and compliance with the law before it is adopted. The element examines existing conditions and, through analysis, identifies housing needs and presents programs to meet those needs. The legislature has deemed that the Housing Element is the appropriate mechanism to implement State-wide goals regarding the provision of decent and suitable housing for all persons. The Government Code also makes it clear that the provision of affordable housing is the responsibility of all local governments and that they, using vested powers, should make a conscious effort to see that there are housing opportunities for all income groups (Section 65580). The intent of the State housing element requirements is based on the following concerns (Section 65581): 1. Local governments should recognize their responsibilities in contributing to the attainment of the State's housing goals; 2. Cities and counties should prepare and implement housing elements coordinated with State and federal efforts to achieve the State's housing goals; 3. Each local jurisdiction should participate in determining the necessary efforts required to attain the State's housing goals;and 4. Each local government must cooperate with other local governments to address regional housing needs. This Housing Element was prepared in compliance with State requirements, and covers the 2014-2021 planning period for jurisdictions in the SCAG region. Many of the housing goals and programs which are desirable in non-industrial jurisdictions are not feasible in Vernon. The noise, dust, vibration, chemical wastes, and odors from Vernon's local industries (many of which operate around the clock) serve as a deterrent to housing development in almost all locations within the City. Moreover, housing generally should not be encouraged in close proximity to heavy industry Housing Element-3 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element for health and safety reasons. The Government Code makes it clear that the local government has the responsibility to consider such environmental factors in the Housing Element (Section 65580[e]). Therefore, while each requirement of State housing element law is referenced, this Housing Element reflects the unique realities within the City of Vernon. Potential sites for new housing have been analyzed in detail, including the conduct of a health risk assessment to identify the most preferable sites. 1.2 Relation to Other General Plan Elements The Vernon General Plan is comprised of the following six elements: ■ Land Use; ■ Circulation and Infrastructure; ■ Housing; ■ Safety; ■ Resources;and ■ Noise. The Housing Element builds upon the other General Plan elements and is entirely consistent with the policies and proposals set forth by the Plan. The General Plan was comprehensively updated in 2007. As portions of the General Plan are amended in the future, the Plan (including the Housing Element) will be reviewed to ensure that internal consistency is maintained. 1.3 Sources of Information The City of Vernon consists of two Census Tracts in the 2010 Census, including all of 5324.00 and a small portion of 5323.04. The 2010 Census incorrectly indicates that a portion of Census Tract 5323.02 is located in the City of Vernon; however, any actual overlap of the City boundary and Census Tract 5323.02 is a mapping error and does not represent any substantial area. The 2010 Census indicates that there are 29 housing units in Vernon, of which 28 were occupied as of 2010. However, both the 1990 and the 2000 Censuses has incorrectly documented the City's unit count figures. The State Department of Finance (DOF) provides more up-to-date housing information based on the Census data. For the 2012 DOF housing estimates, the Housing Element-4 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element housing count has been adjusted to accurately reflect Vernon s housing count known number of units: 31.. The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) also prepares growth forecasts for the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) for cities within the SCAG region. SCAG's 2012 adopted growth forecasts identify Vernon as having 30 households in 2008,with a projection for 30 units in 2035. The City has verified the existence of 31 units within its jurisdiction (of which 30 were occupied as of September 2012), the addresses for which are listed in Appendix C. While Census and SCAG data are used within the Housing Element, it is hereby acknowledged these data represent an undercount of two units and one unit, respectively. In addition, because of the City's extremely limited housing stock, combined with the fact that the City owns 26 of these units, original data from the City on housing and household characteristics are utilized where available in place of the Census. In addition to housing conditions and market information provided by the City, the following documents serve as supplemental material to the Vernon Housing Element and are incorporated by reference: 1. 2012 SCAG Regional Transportation Plan Socioeconomic Projections 2. 2010 Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) data;HUD tabulations based on 2006-2010 American Community Survey Five-Year Estimates developed by the U.S Census Bureau 1.4 Public Participation Section 65583 (c)(6)(A) of the Government Code states: "The local government shall make a diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the housing element, and the program shall describe this effort." For purposes of this Housing Element, outreach to the community was conducted to assess the types of and locations for housing to be considered as part of the City's reform Housing Element-5 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element process. The following meetings were held to gather input into the development of the Housing Element: ■ Housing Commission Workshop,February 9,2012. The Housing Element consultant made a presentation to the Commission that provided an overview of the City's housing commitments, reviewed options to meet those commitments, identified known constraints, and identified sites under consideration for potential housing. ■ Vernon Chamber of Commerce Meeting,March 29, 2012. The Housing Element consultant met with Chamber representatives and made a presentation similar to that conducted with the Housing Commission. ■ City Council Workshop,April 17,2012. Based on input received during the two meetings described above, the Housing Element consultant refined the presentation to focus on preferred housing sites, options for housing types,and potential environmental and health risks located on or near the preferred sites. In addition, community residents were provided the opportunity to review and comment on the Draft Element prior to adoption. Upon receipt of comments from the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) on the Draft Element, the City Council conducted a public hearing on the Element. (The City Council has not created a separate Planning Commission, so all public hearings are conducted before the Council.) For all hearings, notice was published in the local newspaper, posted in the City, and mailed to those who have a request for notice on file in advance of the hearing. The Draft Element was available for review online and in the City's Community Services Department. Copies were made available on request to any person at a nominal charge. The public hearing provided an opportunity for public comment, and recommendations were considered by City Council for incorporation into the Element. In December of 2007, the City adopted a comprehensive revision to its Zoning Ordinance. As part of this process, the City held a series of public meetings with property and Housing Element-6 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element business owners to discuss changes to the document. This successful outreach process resulted in full support of the revisions to the Zoning Ordinance. As part of this Housing Element Update, the Zoning Ordinance was again amended to create an overlay zone to be applied to sites where housing will be permitted. A second overlay was created to allow for the establishment of emergency housing pursuant to Government Code 65583(a)(4). The City conducted a comprehensive review of the most viable housing sites in the City, and through the new overlay districts has established implementing zoning to facilitate housing development. The City made the draft Housing Element, with revisions as recommended by HCD, available to the public in December 2012 through January 2013. Notices of the public hearing held on February 5,2013 and availability of the document for review were mailed to the following service providers: ■ Human Services Association,Bell Gardens ■ Los Angeles County Social Services Department, Cudahy ■ St. Matthias Social Service Center,Huntington Park ■ Mexican American Opportunity Foundation- Community Services, Commerce ■ Ability First/East Los Angeles Center,Los Angeles ■ Eastern Los Angeles Regional Center,Alhambra The notice indicated the web location of the draft Element for download by interested parties, and asked that comments be directed to S. Kevin Wilson, Director of Community Services and Water. Housing Element- 7 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element 2.0 HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT 2.1 Population and Housing Trends City records indicate that Vernon's housing stock and related resident population base has undergone little change since 1980. The City had a 1980 housing stock of 35 dwelling units, supporting a resident population of 85 persons. Only one residential unit has been constructed since that time. Several substandard residential units have been removed from the housing stock, including three units in 1984, one unit in 1985, and one in 1992, bringing the current unit count to 31. These housing units are all located west of Downey Road. Since 1980, the resident population has ranged between 77 and 120 persons, with the current population estimated by the 2010 Census to be 112 persons. For 2012, the Department of Finance reported 120 persons. The 2006-2010 American Community Survey indicates that the majority of residents in Vernon are employed in management, service,and sales industries.

As illustrated in Table H-2, SCAG projects that in 2035, the households and population in Vernon will remain constant at 30 and 100, respectively. SCAG's projections were made at a time prior to the City's reform commitments and thus do not reflect the population and household growth that will result from new housing units.

Average household size is 4.0 persons per unit. Housing vacancy is generally very low in the City, with only one rental unit unoccupied according to the 2010 Census. No owner-occupied housing is vacant. Table H-3 presents 2012 data on housing units per structure, as reported to the State Department of Finance. The majority of Vernon's housing stock is comprised of single-family dwellings, with only one apartment building located in the City. The City owns 84 percent of the total housing stock: 26 dwelling units,18 of which are single-family dwellings and one of which is an eight-unit apartment building. The City rents these units. As part of the reform initiative, the City established a lottery system for the units to allow a broader base of persons to be eligible to rent units in Vernon.

Housing Condition Given the limited housing stock in Vernon, City staff is able to assess housing conditions on an ongoing basis. Although the housing stock is older (largely built before 1950), City staff has determined that all 31 units, or 100% of the housing stock, is well maintained and in good condition. No units have been determined to need replacement. One unit, which had fallen into disrepair, was demolished by its owner in 1992. A major reason for the unusually good quality of housing conditions in Vernon is the City's ownership of 84 percent of the housing stock and its responsibility for maintaining these units. As needed, the City performs any required repairs and upgrades. The great demand for industrial space in the City means that unnecessary or poorly maintained units are unlikely to remain unless acquired by the City. Housing Affordability The California Health and Safety Code Section 50052.5 provides the following definition of affordable housing cost based on the area median income level (AMI) adjusted by family size and income level: Housing Element-10 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Table H-4 Housing Affordability Based on Income Calculation of Calculation of Affordable Affordable Housing Cost for Owner Housing Cost for Renters Extremely Low Income 30% of 30% AMI 30% of 30% AMI (0-30% MFI) Very Low Income 30% of 50% AMI 30% of 50% AMI (0-50% MFI) Lower Income (51-80% MFI) 30% of 70% AMI 30% of 60%AMI Moderate Income (81-120% MFI) 35% of 110% AMI 30% of 110% AMI Because the City's resident population is so small, household needs are negligible when traditional needs analysis methods are applied. The Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS)—special 2000 Census tabulations developed by HUD—provides a specific breakdown of household income adjusted for family size. According to CHAS Data, one-quarter of the households in Vernon were low income, earning between 51 and 80 percent of the Los Angeles County median family income (MFI) of $64,800. All other households earned more than 80 percent MFI. Due to the fact that the City owns and rents most of the housing at unusually low monthly rents, housing overpayment is virtually non-existent.' As of 2012, City-owned apartments and houses largely rented at the following monthly payments, well below market levels for the region: ■ 1-bedroom apartment $120 ■ 2-bedroom apartment $240 ■ 1-bedroom house $120 ■ 2-bedroom house $240 ■ 3-bedroom house $360 'No housing units in the City have been sold in recent years.As such, an estimate of ownership housing costs is unavailable.However, recent(2012)land sales for large industrial sites have been priced at approximately$40 per square foot,depending on location,soil condition and necessary demolition costs. Horsing Element-II Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Implementation of the good government reforms now underway will result in annual rent increases for persons currently living in the units. Using the California Health and Safety Code's updated affordability thresholds, current housing affordability at the County level can be estimated for the various income groups (Table H-5). Housing overpayment occurs when a households pays more than 30 percent of gross monthly income on housing costs. A comparison of housing costs in Vernon and maximum affordable prices for low-income households in Los Angeles County shows that the City's rental rates are well below the maximum affordable rents for very low-income (less than 50% MFI) households, and some one-and two-bedroom apartments may even be affordable to extremely low-income households (although the CHAS data indicate that there are no very low- or extremely low-income households in the City). As such, no households in Vernon experience a housing cost burden. As rental rates rise over time pursuant to the good government reform initiatives, households will experience increased housing costs. Rental rates are anticipated to transition to market rate costs by 2016, as shown below, through annual increases in rent. Additionally, when there is a change in tenancy, new tenants will pay market rate. Market rate costs will be affordable for very low and moderate income households. 1-bedroom unit: $120 to$696 2-bedroom unit: $240 to$1,450 to$839 to$1,450 3-bedroom unit: $240 to$1,114 to$1,000 to$1,700 Certain segments of the population may have a more difficult time finding decent, affordable housing due to special circumstances. Government Code Section 65583(a) requires cities to evaluate the following special needs households in the Housing Element: elderly, disabled persons, developmentally disable persons, large families, female-headed households, farmworkers, and the homeless. Due to the small size of the City's resident population, the magnitude of households in Vernon with special needs is very small.

According to the 2010 Census, 14 residents in Vernon are age 65 and above, representing 12 percent of the population. The proportion of elderly persons in Vernon is likely to remain low as the majority of the City's limited housing stock is occupied by working-age persons. Disabled Persons Disability is a physical or mental condition that affects the functioning of a person. Physical disabilities can hinder access to housing units of conventional design, as well as limit the ability to earn adequate income. The Census defines a disability as a long-lasting physical, mental, or emotional condition. This condition can make it difficult for a person to do activities such as walking, climbing stairs, dressing,bathing, learning, or remembering. This condition can also impede a person from being able to go outside the home alone or to work at a job or business. The City's heavily industrial environment presents added constraints to the disabled. Large volumes of street and rail traffic, and delays caused by trains and parked trucks additionally limit the maneuverability of handicapped individuals. In order to address the needs of its handicapped residents and employees, the City enforces requirements for handicapped accessibility in new construction, and has undertaken a program to install curb ramps for wheelchairs. Developmentally Disabled According to Section 4512 of the Welfare and Institutions Code a "developmental disability" means a disability that originates before an individual attains age 18 years, continues, or can be expected to continue, indefinitely, and constitutes a substantial disability for that individual which includes mental retardation, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and autism. This term shall also include disabling conditions found to be closely related to mental retardation or to require treatment similar to that required for individuals with mental retardation, but shall not include other handicapping conditions that are solely physical in nature. Housing Element-14 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element The State Department of Developmental Services (DDS) currently provides community based services to persons with developmental disabilities and their families through a statewide system of 21 regional centers, four developmental centers, and two community-based facilities. Vernon is served by the South Central Los Angeles Regional Center and the Frank d. Lanterman Regional Center. These facilities provide point of entry to services for people with developmental disabilities. In Vernon, only one person is a consumer of the services provided at the local Regional Center. In order to assist in the housing needs for persons with developmental disabilities, the City will implement programs to coordinate housing activities and outreach with the Regional Center and, encourage housing providers to designate a portion of new affordable housing developments for persons with disabilities, especially persons with developmental disabilities, and pursue funding sources designated for persons with special needs and disabilities. Large Families/Overcrowding Large families are identified as a group with special housing needs based on the limited availability of adequately sized, affordable housing units. Large households are often of lower income, which can result in the overcrowding of smaller dwelling units and in turn accelerate unit deterioration. The 2010 Census identifies eight renter-occupied households as having five or more members. The City's industrial character presents similar disadvantages for families with children as it does for the handicapped. Access to residential services, such as education, recreation, and local retail goods and services, is along roadways with high levels of truck traffic, railroad crossings, and loading activities. These conditions make pedestrian access to residential service facilities difficult and often unsafe,particularly for children. In terms of household overcrowding (defined as greater than 1.01 persons per room), the 2010 Census identifies no overcrowded rental or ownership housing in Vernon. Thus, household overcrowding is not an issue. z The 2010 Census indicated that 15 rental housing units were overcrowded,but the margin of error was so high it was not used for this analysis.Also,because the City owns virtually all units in the Horsing Element-15 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Female-Headed Households Female-headed households tend to have low incomes, thus limiting housing availability for this group. The 2010 Census identifies two female-headed households in Vernon, representing seven percent of all households. The housing needs of female-headed households of lower income can be addressed through the continued provision of the currently existing affordable housing in the City. Farmworkers According to the 2010 Census, no Vernon residents have Farming, Forestry, and Fishing occupations. Due to the lack of opportunities for agricultural operations and the highly industrial nature of the City, no farming operations exist in Vernon. As such,the City has no need for farmworker housing. Homeless Throughout the country, homelessness has become an increasing problem. Factors contributing to the rise in homelessness include the general lack of housing affordable to low and moderate-income persons, increases in the number of persons whose incomes fall below the poverty level, reductions in public subsidy to the poor, and the deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill. According to the Gateway Cities Council of Governments Homeless Action Plan, homeless "hotspots" surveys were conducted during the summer and fall of 2011, during which outreach workers noticed homeless couples and individuals sleeping under bridges and around the Los Angeles River on a nightly basis near the City of Vernon. Other than this one-time observation and casual comment, very few homeless persons have been recorded living in Vernon largely because the City is not desirable for the homeless given the City's industrial environment and its lack of social and residential services. On October 15, 2007, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed into law SB2, which amends Government Code Sections 65582, 65583, and 65589.5 of State Housing Element Law. This legislation requires local jurisdictions to strengthen provisions for addressing housing needs of the homeless, including the community,the City can easily assess whether units are overcrowded. Housing Element-16 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element identification of a zone or zones where emergency shelters are allowed as a permitted use without a conditional use permit. Due to very low homeless population in the City and the industrial nature of the community,the City's policy position is that development of emergency shelters in Vernon is not a good solution for addressing regional homelessness issues. Placing a homeless shelter in an area that has been deemed largely inappropriate for new housing due to environmental concerns—including noxious odors from rendering and slaughtering, proximity to hazardous waste sites, and truck traffic pollution and noise—could raise potential environmental justice concerns. A large number of facilities for homeless individuals and families are located within a five-mile radius of the City, in locations that do not have the environmental constraints that exist in Vernon. For example, the Salvation Army Shelter in the city of Bell is a regional emergency shelter offering emergency and transitional care for up to 340 homeless adults, including 154 in the shelter, 128 in the drug and alcohol program, and 49 in longer term transitional housing. In addition to a place to stay, the Bell Shelter provides case management; substance abuse rehabilitation;individual and group therapy/counseling; on-site health care, medical referrals and HIV/AIDS education; job training; on-site adult education classes and life skills classes. However, given that State law requires all jurisdictions to comply S132 mandates, the City has established an emergency shelter overlay zone to be applied to a single parcel at the northwest corner of the City. Future Housing Needs State law requires jurisdictions to provide for their fair share of regional housing needs. SCAG determines the projected housing needs for Southern California jurisdictions. Future housing needs reflect the number of new units needed in a jurisdiction (future demand), plus an adequate supply of vacant housing to assure mobility and new units to replace losses. These needs were forecast by the 2014-2021 Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA), which considered on a regional and local level: market demand for housing, employment opportunities, availability of suitable sites and public facilities, commuting patterns, type and tenure of Horsing Element-17 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 housing need, and housing needs of farm workers. The 2014- 2021 RHNA establishes a future housing need of two units in the City of Vernon, with one unit to be affordable to very low- income households and one unit to low-income households. Energy and Water Conservation Compared with Vernon's energy-intensive industries, housing consumes only a small proportion of the City's total energy consumption. The City utilizes the California Green Building Standards Code for all construction to minimize energy consumption. Necessary sound insulation on residential units also results in effective heat insulation, thus reducing energy usage. Electric power in Vernon is provided by the City's local power plant and municipal utility system. The Southern California Gas Company and the City of Vernon Light & Power Department Gas Division provide fuel for most natural gas heating needs, and offers programs for water heater insulation, attic insulation, and water flow limiting devices. Water is provided to all dwelling units either from groundwater pumped by the Vernon Community Services and Water Department or by import from the Metropolitan Water District. Compared to the large local industrial users, residential water use is minimal, and no special conservation steps have been deemed necessary for housing. 3.0 HOUSING CONSTRAINTS 3.1 Governmental Constraints Historically, housing growth has been virtually nonexistent in Vernon due to City policy that has discouraged, and in 2007 precluded, the development of any new residential units. City policy-makers have for decades determined that the pervasive industrial environment and land use incompatibilities related to hazardous materials storage and processing, background contamination, noxious odors, noise pollution, and truck and railroad traffic make Vernon an inappropriate location for new housing. However, as part of the City's good governance reform initiative, City leaders have agreed to establish a way to allow for a very limited amount of new housing at a location or locations that would not result in significant land use conflicts, would minimize exposure of housing residents to adverse Housing Element-18 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element environmental conditions, and would provide access to stores, schools, parks, and other amenities that residents would need. The City has made a commitment to amend the Zoning Ordinance to allow for the future development of a limited number of new residential units via a Housing Overlay zone, to be applied to two or fewer parcels. Zoning Ordinance Vernon comprehensively updated its Zoning Ordinance in 2007. The Ordinance did not include any development processes or standards to allow for residential projects, nor did the City have permit processing fees, site improvement requirements, impact fee requirements, or procedures for new residential development. With establishment of the Housing Overlay zone, new permitting procedures and development standards for targeted new residential development are now available. Given the unique conditions in the City and the fact that the sites to which the overlay will be applied are owned by the City, the City permitting process consists of a Development Agreement. In addition, the Housing Overlay zone allows transitional and supportive housing subject to the same permitting processes as other housing in the Housing Overlay zone without any special regulatory requirements. A Development Agreement is considered the most appropriate way to permit housing in Vernon given the unique characteristics of this industrial city. A Development Agreement provides a high degree of flexibility in defining the development standards for a housing project. Through a Development Agreement, the City can work with prospective housing developers to craft the provisions that will apply to site planning, provision of parking and open space, height limits, etc. Because the General Plan allows up to 30 units per acre, a prospective developer can propose innovative approaches to multifamily housing. Rather than establish concrete development standards, Section 26.4.5-5 of the Zoning Ordinance sets forth performance standards for residential development as follows: Horsing Element-19 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 "Sec. 26.4.5-5 Findings. After a public hearing, the City Council shall approve a proposed residential development and related Development Agreement only after first making all of the following findings: a) The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the proposed residential will be compatible with the existing land uses in the vicinity; b) The proposed density is consistent with density standards and all applicable policies contained in the General Plan; c) The site and site plan are physically suitable in terms of design, location, shape, size, and the provision of public and emergency vehicle access, and public services and utilities, including but not limited to (fire protection, police protection, potable water, schools, sewerage, solid waste collection and disposal, storm drainage, and wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal; d) On-site traffic circulation for pedestrians and vehicles is designed into the development to allow residents to move easily through the development and to avoid pedestrian/vehicular conflicts and further, to ensure appropriate access for fire and police response and surveillance equal to or better than what would normally be created by compliance with the Site Planning Standards of Section 26.4.1-7; e) The proposed project provides suitable,usable common and/or private open space that will meet the passive and/or active recreation needs of the resident. Common open space areas and setbacks are provided with landscaping and other improvements suitable for the development proposed; f) The proposed project provides adequate parking to meet the residents' needs and to avoid parking impacts on surrounding properties; g) Refuse/recycling collection areas are located to provide easy access to for all residents and collection vehicles, and to minimize noise impacts on residents; Housing Element-20 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element h) To the extent feasible, the project design incorporates sustainable development features." Given the flexibility of these standards and the need to address unique conditions in Vernon, the requirement for a Development Agreement is not considered a constraint. In fact, in response to a request for proposals for housing development on the site on 52nd Street, the City received five submittals and selected the one which can achieve objectives for providing affordable housing. Renovation, Restoration, Maintenance, and Repair The City will continue to permit the renovation, restoration, maintenance, and repair of existing residential uses. Residential rehabilitation projects are permitted in Vernon, and the rehabilitation is a "Minor Alteration or Repair," as defined in the Zoning Ordinance (less than 50 percent of the fair market value of the buildings on the lot).3 As a practical matter, the expansive definition of "Minor Alteration or Repair" and lack of development standards result in limited governmental constraints (other than complying with the building code) that would prevent a homeowner from upgrading or improving a residence within the existing square footage. If the hard costs of improvements equal or exceed, over a three- year period, 50 percent of the then-current fair market value of the building, then the improvement, if voluntary, will be defined as a "Major Alteration or Repair" and terminate the legal nonconforming status of the residence. A Major Alteration or Repair is considered to be the functional equivalent of a tear-down and re-build, which the City does not permit, for the same reasons that it does not permit new construction of residences. However, if the Major Alteration or Repair is necessitated by a natural disaster, such as an earthquake or fire, the owner does have the right to rebuild the residence. At that time, the development standards for the home would be developed. The City did not undertake to 3 A minor alteration is that for which the hard costs charged, incurred,or paid for such renovation,alteration,or repair,over a three year period,commencing when the permit required is issued,or if no permit is required,when the physical portion of the renovation, alteration,or repair is commenced,is less than 50 percent of the current fair market value of all of the buildings located on the same lot. Housing Element-21 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 develop those criteria at this time since there are only five private residences in Vernon. The Major Alteration provision does not constrain the maintenance of the existing housing stock, as property owners are permitted to undertake a broad array of improvements that extend the life of residential structures and improve unit conditions. Under State law, any and all such improvements can be pursued consistent with Health & Safety Code Section 17922(d) and Section 17958.8 relating to the alteration and repair of existing buildings. Section 17922(d) relates to the standards adopted by the State,which the Zoning Ordinance in no way invalidates. This section discusses the use of original materials and methods for the repair,replacement, or extension as long as it meets Building Code standards. The Zoning Ordinance has no provisions or limitations on the construction materials utilized. Section 17958.8 is similar, as it is addresses the use of original construction materials and methods. Nothing in the Zoning Ordinance or Building Code prohibits the use of original materials and methods, with the exception of an unreinforced masonry structure, which would have to be seismically retrofitted. As no residential units in Vernon are constructed of unreinforced masonry, this does not affect any housing units. All residential units in the City are in good condition, with no units requiring a major alteration during the planning period. Of those units owned by the City, the City intends to renovate seven units due to age, although all are currently in good, habitable condition. These seven units have had new HVAC systems installed in recent years. No residential property owners have proposed major renovations to their properties. Residential property owners participated in the recent Zoning Ordinance revision process, and none expressed opposition to the standards that apply to existing, nonconforming residential structures in the City, including the prohibitions on increasing square footage and undertaking major alterations. All residences - whether owned by the City or others - are in good condition, according to City staff. As described above, residential rehabilitation that constitutes a minor alteration (costing, over a three year period, less than 50 percent of the market value of the building) is permitted. Because minor alterations are permitted and existing standards will allow renovations of these units, the limit on major alterations is not considered an impact to the Housing Element-22 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element maintenance and improvement of the City's housing stock. As discussed later in this section, to accommodate housing needs of the disabled, the Zoning Ordinance has be revised to remove restrictions on major alterations as needed through the implementation of reasonable accommodation procedures. It is the City's intent to encourage and actively participate in the rehabilitation of existing residential units. The process is straightforward and not burdensome; there is no entitlement process required for rehabilitation projects. Residential rehabilitation projects that are Minor Alterations or Repairs and do not exceed the existing square footage require only a building permit. The building permit process timeframe depends on the complexity of the renovation. Complex renovations involving new electrical systems, plumbing, etc. can take up to three weeks to process. The City has no intention of removing any of the 31 units in the City, as all units are in good condition. Replacement of housing units that have been demolished or destroyed due to force majeure (defined as an event that is not within the control of the owner of the property, including, without limitation, earthquake, flood, fire, and acts of war or terrorism) are permitted. A building permit would be required, and a housing unit would be permitted to be rebuilt up to the existing building square footage. The development standards for the reconstructed dwelling would be determined at that time. Building Code Amendments The City has adopted the California Building Code with some minor local amendments related primarily to industrial buildings in the City. Per Health and Safety Code Sections 17958.5 and 17958.7, the City made required findings and filed such findings with the California Building Standards Commission. The amendments include administrative processes such as the establishment of City permit fees and appeals boards, as well as requirements specific to hazardous and industrial uses such as fire access roads, spray booths, and storage of explosive and flammable materials. Vernon has also made additional amendments to protect the safety of workers and residents within the City. Specifically, the City requires all wiring to be in a metallic conduit, to protect workers and residents from hazards of accidentally driving a nail or screw through wiring. There is a marginal cost increase associated Housing Element-23 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 with this precaution, but the benefit associated with safer installation outweighs the cost. The City has also made amendments to require Class A and B roofing material, which is more fire resistive and can stop the potential spread of fire.While this type of roofing material may be more expensive than some standard materials, this amendment is necessary to prevent and quickly extinguish fires that may have far more costly impacts. As such, no restrictions or amendments have been adopted in the Building Code that would constrain housing in the City. Permit and Infrastructure Fees The City assesses various fees to cover the costs of permit processing (Table H-6). Most of the fees charged are flat fees based on the cost of services, or tiered fees based on the size and cost of the improvement. Fees charged are comparable to surrounding communities in Los Angeles County, and as such, do not pose a constraint to housing maintenance and preservation. Owners intending to renovate or improve existing residential units are required to obtain a building permit for a minor alteration. The fee, which is reviewed annually,is based on the cost of the improvement. Because future residential development will occur on no more than two parcels on properties owned by the City, no special fees will be required for processing development applications. The vehicle for approving projects will be through a Development Agreement with the City. Because the development will occur on existing lots well served by streets, water lines, sewer lines, and all other urban- level infrastructure, no off-site improvements will be required to allow housing development to proceed.

Enforcement of building code standards does not constrain the improvement of housing in Vernon but instead serves to maintain or improve the condition of the limited, existing housing stock. Of the 31 units in the City, only five are not owned by the City. City staff has investigated and determined that none of these Housing Element-25 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 five units requires significant rehabilitation. At this time, an active code enforcement program is unwarranted due to the limited number of privately owned units (five) and the fact all units are currently in good condition and continue to be well maintained by the owners. The City encourages active maintenance of the housing stock, as evidenced by the extensive rehabilitation the City has undertaken on those housing units that it owns. Community Services Staff is active in the community, and will respond to any visible code enforcement violations or complaints that may require rehabilitation of units. Property owners are permitted and encouraged to perform proper upkeep and maintenance, which can include renovations, as long as the existing square footage is not exceeded and the cost of the renovation, over a three-year period, does not exceed 50 percent of the market value of buildings on the lot. For all practical purposes, all other controls, permit processes, and fees do not constrain the maintenance and preservation of the City's housing stock. Constraints to Housing for Persons with Disabilities The City has adopted the California Building Standards Code. Standards within the Code of the City of Vernon (through the adoption of the California Building Standards Code) include provisions to ensure accessibility for persons with disabilities. These standards are consistent with the Americans with Disabilities Act. No local amendments that would constrain accessibility or increase the cost of housing for persons with disabilities have been adopted, except that the Zoning Ordinance would not permit the floor area of the residence to be increased or permit any major alterations that equal or exceed 50 percent of the current fair market value of the buildings on the lot. These restrictions have been addressed the implementation of a reasonable accommodation procedures to accommodate housing needs of the disabled (discussed below). Definition of Family Sometimes, a city's definition of "family" can limit access to housing for persons with disabilities when the word is narrowly defined. This can illegally limit the use of housing as group homes for persons with disabilities, but not limit housing for families. The Vernon Zoning Ordinance does not define family, and therefore is nondiscriminatory in its application. Housing Element-26 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Reasonable Accommodation The Fair Housing Act, as amended in 1988, requires that cities and counties provide reasonable accommodation to rules, policies, practices, and procedures where such accommodation may be necessary to afford individuals with disabilities equal housing opportunities. While fair housing laws intend that all people have equal access to housing, the law also recognizes that people with disabilities may need extra tools to achieve equality. Reasonable accommodation is one of the tools intended to further housing opportunities for people with disabilities. Reasonable accommodation provides a means of requesting from the local government flexibility in the application of land use and zoning and building regulations or, in some instances, even a waiver of certain restrictions or requirements because it is necessary to achieve equal access to housing. Cities and counties are required to consider requests for accommodations related to housing for people with disabilities, and to provide the accommodation when it is determined to be "reasonable' based on fair housing laws and the case law interpreting the statutes. State law allows for a statutorily based four-part analysis to be used in evaluating requests for reasonable accommodation related to land use and zoning matters and can be incorporated into a reasonable accommodation ordinance or procedures. This analysis gives great weight to furthering the housing needs of people with disabilities and also considers the impact or effect of providing the requested accommodation on the City and its overall zoning scheme. Developers and providers of housing for people with disabilities must be ready to address each element of the following four-part analysis: ■ The housing that is the subject of the request for reasonable accommodation is for people with disabilities as defined in federal or state fair housing laws; ■ The reasonable accommodation requested is necessary to make specific housing available to people with disabilities who are protected under fair housing laws; ■ The requested accommodation will not impose an undue financial or administrative burden on the local government;and Housing Element-27 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 ■ The requested accommodation will not result in a fundamental alteration in the local zoning ordinance. The City abides by the Fair Housing Act, and has instituted a clearly defined process for making requests for reasonable accommodation to provide exceptions in zoning, land-use, permitting processes, and building codes. The City has developed reasonable accommodation procedures in its Zoning Ordinance and will provide information on the procedures on the City's website (Housing Element Program 4). The State has removed any City discretion for review of small group homes for persons with disabilities (six or fewer residents). The City does not impose additional zoning, building code, or permitting procedures other than those allowed by State law. The City does not impose special permit procedures or requirements that could impede the retrofitting of homes for accessibility. A retrofit would be permitted as a minor alteration (requiring a building permit), as long as the cost of the retrofit was less than 50 percent of the market value of the buildings. The City's requirements for building permits are standard, straightforward, and not burdensome. No CUP or other special permitting requirements are required for retrofitting homes for accessibility. The City's adopted reasonable accommodation procedures are ministerial and include, but not be limited to, identifying who may request a reasonable accommodation (i.e., persons with disabilities, family-members, landlords, etc.), timeframes for decision-making, and provision for relief from the various land-use, zoning, or building regulations that may constrain the housing for persons of disabilities. The procedure also includes consideration of allowing an increase in habitable floor area of an existing residence to accommodate disabled persons. The City will also explore the feasibility of offering fee reductions for permit processes that involve retrofitting residences for accessibility purposes. Housing Element-28 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element 3.2 Non-governmental Constraints to Housing In Vernon, limited land is available which would be suitable for the development of housing. The Housing Element inventory of vacant and underutilized sites identifies two potential sites for residential development. The limited sites available for residential development are due to serious environmental conditions which render the majority of sites throughout Vernon unsuitable for residential development. Environmental factors affecting potential residential development are related to hazardous materials storage and processing, background contamination, noxious odors, noise pollution, and truck and railroad traffic generated by the City's pervasive industrial land uses. Inadequate access to residential services is an additional constraint to residential development in the City. These factors contribute to the limited number of sites available for residential development. Market Constraints Government Code Section 65583(a)(5) requires communities to include an analysis of potential and actual nongovernmental constraints upon the maintenance, improvement, or development of housing for all income levels, including the availability of financing, the price of land, and the cost of construction. Based upon information regarding the Vernon commercial and industrial market, recent (2012) sales for large developed industrial sites have been priced at approximately $96 per square foot, depending on location, soil condition, and necessary demolition costs.4 Effective land costs, which also include remediation required to make old industrial sites developable for residential use, make the cost of land significantly higher. Land costs for vacant sites have been priced at approximately $1.4 million per acre of land ($31 per square foot of vacant land). 5 Additional costs that would also have to be incurred to make land suitable for residential development include testing for ground contamination, remediation for residential development, and providing minimum safety and nuisance improvements. Although these 4 Loopnet.com Industrial Properties for Sale Search.August 15,2012. <http://www.loopnet.com> s Loopnet.com Industrial Properties for Sale Search.August 15,2012. <http://www.loopnet.com> Housing Element-29 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 additional costs might be feasible if the sites were otherwise suitable for residential development, the environmental problems from surrounding uses are so severe that both private market and assisted housing development is precluded on any site in the City. Because the majority of the City's housing stock is owned and managed by the City, maintenance and improvements are overseen and funded by the City. As such, there are no market constraints on the maintenance of housing in the City. The City actively performs maintenance and repairs on all City-owned buildings. Hazardous Materials With its history as an industrial City dating to incorporation in 1903,heavy and prolonged industrial use in Vernon is reflected in the following conditions (refer to Figure H-2): ■ A high concentration of both underground (38 facilities with 82 underground storage tanks) and above-ground hazardous material storage tanks throughout the City. There are also 20 leaking underground storage tanks clean-up sites. Within the City,approximately 570 businesses handle/store hazardous materials. Thirty-eight of these businesses handle high levels of extremely dangerous materials regulated by the State. ■ Numerous underground pipelines throughout the City, many carrying potentially explosive materials Housing Element-30 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element 3 DD a DDD o DDD o� � DaDDDaD s � o°O�DDODoD •— aD D O DD o oDODD�00 3e DDDD�a D DD� o°o� _ DDD oon�B �D�D�DoD®D ��D as idi ud ®D 3 U' z O E LL (a A A .va✓aes fQ O) O L d _ H 3 � DDD w = ggg; INI❑ z ®0 U c FM O O ®8� =) 5D Cl) a �o NtlS = LL ID N aS C a g p WQ EEEI U cn O- p M C C f N E •� N O O stla tl �B7 C �� o a L tea E E LU D��D �o 000 <1z w m Housing Element-31 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 ■ Residual soil contamination resulting from prior manufacturing activities on the sites and from previously abandoned chemical waste, open disposal pits, aeration ponds, landfills or petroleum related activities (a high lead content in the soil is common). Six sites in Vernon are on the EPA Superfund List,but none of them are on the National Priority List. ■ Approximately 130 miles of railroad track historically treated with herbicides for weed control. Rights-of way show patterns of contamination from spilling, overfilling, or transfer of chemicals. ■ Four California EPA-permitted hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal facilities ■ Ten closed landfill sites Overfilling storage tanks, leaking pipes,and leaking tanks have resulted in residual soil contamination in Vernon. Sixteen sites have been declared Proposition 65 sites (determined by laboratory tests to have excessive carcinogenic or teratogenic chemical contamination). Remediation plans are required to decontaminate the soil. Due to high background and other petroleum contamination and lack of feasible clean-up options, several sites were remediated with covenants being recorded to advise future purchasers of the presence of contamination. Due to public health concerns, these sites would be unsuitable for future sensitive land uses such as housing. A significant potential for chemical spills or accidents exists due to the high concentration of underground storage tanks in Vernon. The City's Underground Tank Program has resulted in the removal of over 1,000 tanks. Additionally, where structures were threatened by tank removal, numerous underground tanks were abandoned in place. Another component of hazardous materials control in Vernon is the "right to know' program. All businesses in the City are required to submit inventories of all hazardous materials used or stored. The City currently has 571 businesses that handle or store hazardous materials. Class C businesses with very high maximum daily volumes (2,001 to 1,000,000 pounds) are the most prevalent, and are located throughout the City. The risk Housing Element-32 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element of upset from businesses handling such high volumes of chemicals, many of which are toxic, is a factor that must be considered in land use planning. If high levels of certain highly toxic chemicals are present in a business' hazardous materials inventory, these businesses are further regulated through the California Accidental Release Prevention Program (CALARP). Such businesses are required to provide the City's Environmental Health Department with a CALARP report detailing how they plan to prevent the release of such chemicals, as well as presenting a plan for clean-up and notification if there were an accidental release. Such regulated chemicals include ammonia and chlorine gas and could impact a large geographic area if released. As illustrated in Figure H-2, Vernon currently has 38 businesses regulated under CALARP. The locations of businesses throughout the community with underground storage tanks and/or use or storage of chemical materials indicate that the entire City is subject to chemical spills or accidents, thereby illustrating its inappropriateness for future residential development. In summary, Vernon's prolonged history as an industrial City has resulted in significant background contamination. Industries that store or use hazardous materials are pervasive throughout the City. Noxious Odors Numerous industries that generate noxious odors operate in Vernon, including several focused on the slaughtering and rendering of animals. Overlay districts have been designated in the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance to isolate the locations of offensive industrial uses responsible for excessive noxious odors. These overlay districts include a "Slaughtering Overlay" for uses which involve the slaughtering of animals, and a "Rendering Overlay" for the location of rendering facilities. These uses generate significant adverse effects related to odor and release of toxic materials, making residential land uses highly incompatible within their vicinity. Revisions to the Zoning Ordinance will include new standards to address odor control in the Rendering and Slaughtering Overlay Districts. Housing Element-33 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Noise As could be expected in a highly industrial city, properties in Vernon are exposed to high levels of noise emanating from stationary industrial activity, as well as from trucks, automobiles, and railroad operations. Numerous companies operate equipment such as large presses and pumps which produce excessive vibrations and generate noise well beyond the level of acceptability for noise-sensitive land uses within the vicinity. Arterial roadways in Vernon have a very high proportion of truck traffic (approximately 30 percent), thereby intensifying noise levels along the City's roadways. In addition, four main railroad lines and a number of switching operations are located in the City, and these generate significant levels of noise day and night. Figure H-3, derived from the Noise Element, presents noise contours developed for Vernon in 2007 as part of the update to the General Plan. The Zoning Ordinance establishes a one-hour standard of 65 dB(A) between 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. within 0.10 mile of a school or residence, and a 60 dB(A) standard between 10:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M. within 0.10 mile of a school or residence. As evidenced by the contour map, most properties in Vernon are exposed to noise levels of 65 CNEL6 or greater, and therefore are normally incompatible with sensitive land uses. The noise contours are based on roadway traffic and do not account for stationary noise sources. The probability is that areas mapped as being outside the 65 dB CNEL may in fact experience excessive noise levels from intermittent or other sources. Truck and Railroad Traffic Vernon is traversed by approximately 130 miles of railroad tracks, with approximately 96 at-grade and seven grade- separated railroad crossings. As previously mentioned, truck traffic is extremely heavy, comprising nearly one-third of all traffic in the City. These conditions not only contribute to excessive noise levels, but also create safety hazards for pedestrians, particularly a problem for the elderly, persons with disabilities,and families with children. 6 Community Noise Equivalent Level(CNEL)is a noise measure that accounts for increased human sensitivity to noise at night.

Some spur tracks have been eliminated, but have been replaced by truck transportation. Also, the rail lines are being considered as routes for future transit rail traffic connecting Orange County to downtown Los Angeles' Union Station. Figure H-4 indicates the principal transportation elements that contribute to noise and pollution in the City of Vernon: the Long Beach Freeway, arterial roadways,collector streets and mainline railroads. Residential Service Adequacy Residential development requires the provision of services to meet the needs of the resident population. Services provided at the municipal level include education, recreation, and local retail goods and services. While few such residential services are situated within Vernon, they are generally located within close enough proximity to adequately serve currently existing residences in the City via car or public transportation. However, access to these residential services is along roadways with high levels of track traffic, railroad crossings, and loading activities. These conditions make pedestrian access to residential service facilities difficult and unsafe,particularly for children. However, areas that border the residential neighborhoods of the adjacent city of Maywood are in close proximity to community services,including schools, parks, and local shopping. Summary of Constraints to Residential Development Environmental degradation related to hazardous materials and background contamination, noxious odors, noise pollution and truck and railroad traffic present land use conflicts for future residential development in the City. In addition, the lack of adequate, safe access to residential services acts to constrain housing opportunities in Vernon. Although extensive industrial development throughout Vernon has resulted in environmental conditions that limit new housing sites, one or two areas along the City's southern boundary could potentially accommodate a very limited amount of new residential development to meet the City's good governance commitment to the State legislature.

The City's policy over many decades has been to discourage development of any new housing units. However, given the City's commitment to the State legislature to expand the voter base, sites must be identified where 30 to 50 new units could be built in Vernon, provided that impacts associated with pervasive industrial operations and extensive site contamination can be wholly addressed, and further provided that housing sites provide new residents with suitable access to schools,open space, and shopping. Proposed sites for new residential housing would be preferred along Vernon s boundaries, near residential neighborhoods in the adjacent cities of Maywood and Huntington Park. These areas are less impacted from Vernon industrial uses and trucking traffic, but also have good access to services and amenities that support established residential neighborhoods in these adjacent cities. To assess the current potential for residential development in Vernon as required under Housing Element statutes, staff has identified both vacant properties and underutilized buildings, defined as dilapidated and/or unreinforced masonry structures suitable for demolition. City staff conducted a field survey of vacant and underutilized properties throughout the entire City. Although some of these sites are located throughout the City, staff subsequently narrowed the potential sites down to areas in the City that are in close proximity to community services and amenities. Potential sites within the Commercial Overlay District were also dismissed due to the potential impacts to residential uses being close to industrial uses. In addition, a key consideration was to ensure that any new residential development would not impede the ability of existing or future adjacent industrial properties to attract a broad range of industrial users, consistent with the City's mission. To permit housing at the potential sites identified, the City is amending the Land Use Element to establish a Housing Overlay,where residential uses are permitted at a density of up Housing Element-38 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element to 30 units per acre. A similar approach is being used in the Zoning Ordinance to correspond to the General Plan designation. In the Zoning Ordinance, the Housing (-H) overlay district will allow housing development with approval of a Development Agreement. This approach is being used given Vernon's unique character as an industrial city. The Development Agreement will provide for maximum flexibility for development standards while ensuring appropriate features are incorporated into a project to address surrounding industrial businesses in Vernon. The Zoning Ordinance provisions for the Housing overlay district include that all Development Agreements, at a minimum address those standards outlined on pages 20 and 21 of this element. Potential Residential Housing Sites Two vacant sites and underutilized properties were considered to have some limited potential for residential development, and one site was identified as having the potential to accommodate emergency housing. These sites are described in Table H-7. The following discussion evaluates these sites in terms of environmental safety and residential service adequacy. Table H-7 Potential Housing Sites Site Maximum Assumed Total No. Location Zoning Density Density Acreage Units Potential Sites for Housing A 4675 E.52nd General 30 du/ac 24 du/ac 2.06 49 Drive Industry(I) B 4459 E.52nd General 30 du/ac 24 du/ac 0.52 12 Drive Industry(I) Total 2.58 61 Site A Site A is a 2.1-acre site located along the northern side of 52nd Drive and owned by the City of Vernon. The south side of 52nd Drive is a residential neighborhood located in Maywood. The site is approximately 500 feet southeast of the Atlantic Boulevard and District Boulevard intersection, and several hundred feet south of the Los Angeles River. Site A is entirely vacant. North of the site is a railroad line, and to the southeast Housing Element-39 Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 is Sanchez Upholstery Supply. Cal SDM, Inc., a custom metal fabrication shop and steam boiler company, is located to the northeast,across from the railroad tracks. Site B Site B is a half-acre site located in the southwestern portion of Vernon, near the intersection of District Boulevard, Fruitland Avenue, and Cudahy Avenue. The site is bounded by 52na Street to the south, Fruitland Avenue to the north, and Cudahy Avenue to the east. The property shares three of its property boundaries with the City of Maywood. The site includes a dilapidated warehouse structure built in the 1930s that occupies nearly 50 percent of the site. The remaining site includes an asphalt area overgrown with weeds. Site B is surrounded by Pacific Coast Chemical (in Vernon) to the north, a parking area (in Maywood) to the west, residential uses (in Maywood) to the south, a union assembly hall (in Maywood) to the east, and Maywood Elementary School (in Maywood) to the southeast. Potential Emergency Shelter Sites Site C Site C is a 1.6-acre site located on the southeast corner of Alameda Street and 25th Street, immediately east of the Alameda Corridor. The site is primarily vacant and includes the remains of a building foundation. The site is bounded by produce distributors to the south, a pallet storage business to the southeast, a warehouse building to the east, and the Alameda Corridor to the west and north. Environmental Safety Environmental conditions in Vernon are generally incompatible with residential uses. However, the sites chosen for potential residential development and emergency shelters are located along the City's periphery. The land uses surrounding the sites listed in Table H-9 include vacant lots, residential uses, a chemical distributor, an upholstery supply warehouse, an assembly hall, and an elementary school. All of the sites are exposed to truck traffic due to their locations near Alameda Street, Atlantic Boulevard, and District Boulevard. Site B is located near the intersection of 52na Street and District Boulevard, which are both Collectors. Site C is Housing Element-40 Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element located at the intersection at Alameda Street, an Arterial, and 25th Street, a Collector. Site C is located along the Alameda Corridor, which includes a below-ground, triple-tracked rail line. The Noise Contour Map (Figure H-3) shows that 2007 noise levels exceed 70 CNEL all along the Alameda Corridor and I- 710 freeway, indicating residential uses are normally incompatible and should be discouraged. This would primarily affect the Site C, a potential location for emergency shelters. Site A and B are exposed to noise levels below 70 CNEL. Noxious odors are primarily related to numerous industries in Vernon involved in the slaughtering and rendering of animals, geographically concentrated within the General Plan Slaughtering and Rendering Overlay Districts east of Soto Street. All of the potential housing sites (Sites A, B, and C) are located more than one-half mile from these districts, and will not likely be subjected to the odor impacts, depending on prevailing wind conditions. City records indicate that all three potential housing and emergency shelter sites are exposed to levels of hazardous materials from underground tanks, soil contamination, and chemicals used for operations in the adjacent area. With approximately 570 businesses currently using or storing hazardous materials, over 80 underground storage tanks, and four hazardous waste treatment facilities, the presence of hazardous materials and hazardous waste is evident throughout the City. A total of 37 businesses utilize regulated substances containing highly toxic materials (CALARP). If an accidental release were to occur at any of these 37 facilities, evacuation would be required for a large geographic area. Table H-8 and Table H-9 describe the locational characteristics of each site and the nearby sources of toxic materials.

However, new residential development in Vernon would also require that the new residents be provided basic residential services. The services provided at the local level include education, recreation, and grocery shopping. The estimated distances to these facilities from each site are presented in Table H-10. The California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC) has established criteria for appropriate distances between residential uses and services, and provides the basis for evaluating residential service adequacy in Vernon. TCAC's distance criteria for public elementary, middle and high schools is a maximum of one-half mile from residential development. The nearest elementary school to potential residential Sites A and B sites is Maywood Elementary in Maywood; the nearest middle school is Nimitz Middle School in Huntington Park; and the nearest high school is Maywood Academy High School in Maywood. As indicated in Table H-9, both Sites A and B meet the one-half mile locational criteria for elementary schools. The TCAC has established a maximum one-mile distance criteria within inner city areas for the distance between residential development and a full-scale supermarket where grocery staples, fresh meat, and produce are sold. The closest full service grocery store to the potential residential sites in Vernon is a Food 4 Less, located on Slauson Avenue in Maywood. Review of Table H-9 indicates that both Sites A and B meets are located within one- mile of a Food 4 Less in Maywood. The TCAC's locational criteria for public parks is a maximum of one-half mile from residential development. The nearest park to Sites A and B is Maywood Park at the intersection of 58th Street and Heliotrope Avenue in the City of Maywood. Adjacent to the park is the Maywood Activity Center, which includes a community center, gym, and indoor basketball court. Site A meets the one-half mile locational criteria for parks facility (Maywood Park). Site B is located approximately one mile away from Maywood Park.

Both Sites A and B are located across the street from residential uses in the City of Maywood. Both sites are within walking distance to Maywood Elementary School and less than two miles from a junior high school, high school, grocery store, and park and community center. Due to the close proximity to Maywood's residential neighborhoods, it makes if easier for children and adults to walk to residential services and avoid the truck traffic and railroad crossings typically found in the center of Vernon. Summary of Housing Opportunities Although future residential development is inappropriate in Vernon due to its pervasive industrial character, the shift in policy to allow for an increase in the City's population to enhance government accountability has led the City to identify two sites for potential housing development and one site for emergency shelters. The potential sites are suited for residential use since they are generally close to schools and groceries stores located in adjacent communities. The number of residential units that would be could be built on these two sites will be able to accommodate the City's RHNA of two future housing units. The following describes the City's quantified objectives for the 2014-2021 planning period by income group. Since most of the City-owned residential dwelling units have undergone some rehabilitation since 2007, the City anticipates rehabilitating only seven City-owned residential units. As the remaining seven that were not renovated become vacant, the City will consider rehabilitating these units. (New HVAC systems were installed in these units in recent years.) The five privately owned residential units are considered in good condition and not in need of major repair; therefore, for this planning period, no rehabilitation of dwelling units are planned. In quantifying dwelling unit Housing Element-45 Vernon General Plan Housing Element production goals in Vernon, the City wants to conserve and preserve all existing 31 housing units in the City. The City would like to produce up to 49 dwelling units, where at least two are for low and very low income categories.

Prior to presenting the goals, policies, and programs, an evaluation of the programs in the previous Housing Element (2000) is presented as a foundation for developing the Plan for the 2008-2014 Housing Element. 5.1 Evaluation of Previous Accomplishments State law (California Government Code Section 65588(a)) requires each jurisdiction to review its housing element as frequently as appropriate and evaluate: ■ The appropriateness of the housing goals, objectives, and policies in contributing to the attainment of the state housing goal; ■ The effectiveness of the housing element in attainment of the community's housing goals and objectives;and ■ The progress in implementation of the housing element. Table H-12 shows the progress the City made in implementing the 2008-2014 Housing Programs. An analysis of the effectiveness and continued appropriateness of these programs is provided, and the goals, policies, and programs from the 2008-2014 Housing Element have been updated to reflect this evaluation. The major focus of housing policy in Vernon is to preserve the existing housing stock in the City and to ensure that existing housing in the City is well maintained. A secondary goal is to identify a site or sites suitable for new housing pursuant to the City's good governance initiative, and a site that can accommodate emergency shelters pursuant to the requirements of SB2. The Housing Element addresses the health and safety of residents living on or adjacent to industrial sites. The City actively discourages the occupation or construction of dwelling units on or near industrial sites since activities on industrial sites includes operations potentially hazardous to residents. In addition, all units are required to have adequate insulation, air conditioning, approved air and water filtration systems, and sound insulation to Housing Element-47 Vernon General Plan Housing Element reduce potentially adverse air quality and noise-related impacts from adjacent industrial uses.? 7 Vernon does not require an adequate sites implementation/rezone program per Government Code Section 65584.09;the City's RHNA of zero required no sites during the previous planning period.

POLICY H-1.3: Mitigate any residential displacement impacts occurring as a result of residential demolition. GOAL H-2: Maintain all existing dwelling units within the City. POLICY H-2.1: Provide for the retention of existing residential units in the City that are economically and physically sound. POLICY H-2.2: Continue to accommodate the needs of disabled residents through the adopted reasonable accommodation procedure. GOAL H-3: Create opportunities for the development of new housing in areas of the City that have the least potential for adverse impacts associated with established industrial uses and truck routes. Locate such new housing nearby community services. POLICY H-3.1: Implement the Housing Overlay Zone via the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning map to allow for a limited amount of new housing construction. POLICY H-3.2: Strategically locate sites for new housing so as to minimize noise, vibration, smoke, noxious gases, glare, heat, dust, odors, air pollution, and other adverse impacts associated with industrial uses, slaughtering and rendering uses, businesses that Housing Element-51 Vernon General Plan Housing Element release toxic materials, and trucking and railroad facilities and routes. POLICY H-3.3: Encourage development of residential uses in strategic proximity to schools, recreational facilities, commercial areas, parks and other public spaces, and transit routes. GOAL H-4: Continue to promote the availability of a range in existing unit types and sizes, and equal housing opportunity in the City's housing market on the basis of age, race, sex, marital status, ethnic background, source of income, homelessness, physical disabilities,and other factors. POLICY H4.1: Prohibit discrimination in the availability of existing and new housing. POLICY H4.2: Address the housing needs of special populations and extremely low-income households through emergency shelters, transitional housing, supportive housing, and single-room occupancy units. 5.3 Programs As discussed in this Element, the Vernon City Council has adopted several good governance reform measures, including a commitment to at least double the housing stock within the City. Residential development is will be permitted at strategic locations in Vernon. SCAG adopted a future housing need of two units in Vernon as part of the 2014-2021 Regional Housing Needs Assessment, recognizing that although incompatibility of locating housing in such a heavy industrial environment may not be appropriate, there may be certain areas in Vernon where housing may be suitable. As such, programs to increase the City's housing stock are included below. As indicated in the goals and policies, the primary goals of the Housing Element is to ensure the maintenance of the City's existing housing stock and to allow for limited new housing opportunities. The following programs will implement these goals. Program 1: Maintenance of City-Owned Residences The City owns 26 of the total 31 housing units in Vernon, all of which are rented. The City is responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of these units. As indicated in Section 2.0, Housing Needs Assessment, of this Housing Element, all of the City-owned units Housing Element-52 Vernon General Plan Housing Element were determined to be in good repair. In addition, in recent years the City initiated an extensive project on all City-owned units to ensure the continued longevity of existing units. In 2007, the City renovated 12 units, and an additional 14 units were renovated between 2008 and 2011. Since 2007, all 26 units have undergone renovations. The City will continue to provide maintenance to these units, thus ensuring upkeep for the majority of Vernon's housing stock. Responsible Agency:Department of Community Services Project Funding:Departmental Budget Timeframe: Ongoing as needed. Program 2: Code Enforcement Of the five non-City owned units located in Vernon, none was determined by the City to be in need of substantial rehabilitation. Due to the limited number of privately owned units in the City, a code enforcement program would have limited application. However, it is nonetheless imperative that residential units be adequately maintained for health, safety, and aesthetic concerns. Community Services staff is active in the community and will enforce the City's code to eliminate and prevent unsafe conditions in residential units. Community Services staff responds quickly to code enforcement complaints in Vernon. Community Services staff is active in the community and will actively monitor all residential units in the City to ensure the health and safety of City residents. Staff will respond to reports of code violations within the week that they are reported, and enforce applicable laws to ensure the safety and preservation of all housing units within the City. Responsible Agency:Department of Community Services Project Funding:Departmental Budget Timeframe:Ongoing Program 3: Preservation of Assisted Housing State law (Chapter 1451, Statutes of 1989) requires the City to identify, analyze and propose programs within the Housing Element to address the potential conversion of all federal, State and locally assisted housing developments eligible to change to non-low-income use during the next ten-year period (2008-2018). Government Code Section 65583(8) defines assisted housing developments as the following: "multi-family rental housing that Housing Element-53 Vernon General Plan Housing Element receives governmental assistance under federal programs listed in subdivision (a) of Section 65863.10, state and local multi-family revenue bond programs, local redevelopment programs, the federal Community Development Block Grant Program, or local in-lieu fees. Assisted housing developments shall also include multi-family rental units that were developed pursuant to a local inclusionary housing program or used to qualify for a density bonus pursuant to Section 65915-65917." Vernon has no assisted housing in its jurisdiction, as confirmed by City and State HCD staff, and through review of "Inventory of Federally Subsidized Low-Income Rental Units at Risk of Conversion" (California Housing Partnership Corporation), and the "Use of Housing Revenue Bond Proceeds - 1994" (California Debt Advisory Commission). As a result, there is no housing at risk of losing its subsidized status that must be considered in the Housing Element. Responsible Agency:Department of Community Services Project Funding:Departmental Budget Timeframe:Ongoing Program 4: Housing Opportunities for Residents with Special Needs The Fair Housing Act, as amended in 1988,requires that cities and counties provide reasonable accommodation to rules, policies, practices, and procedures where such accommodation may be necessary to afford individuals with disabilities equal housing opportunities. The City has adopted procedures in their Zoning Ordinance for housing for persons with disabilities and will provide information to residents through the City's website. Responsible Agency:Department of Community Services Project Funding:Departmental Budget Timeframe:Ongoing Program 5: Priority Water and Sewer Services In accordance with Government Code Section 65589.7, after the Vernon Housing Element is adopted by City Council, a copy will be immediately delivered to all public agencies or private entities that provide water or sewer services to properties within Vernon. Responsible Agency:Department of Community Services Project Funding:Departmental Budget Timeframe:2013 Housing Element-54 Vernon General Plan Housing Element Program 6: Provision of Adequate Sites The Land Use Element Housing Overlay policy allows up to 60 residential dwelling units citywide, which is more than adequate to meet RHNA objectives for all income levels (two units). According to the sites inventory capacity analysis, the 2.1-acre housing site (Site A) located at 4675 52nd Drive is estimated to accommodate up to 49 units. The 0.5-acre housing site (Site B) located at 4675 52nd Drive can accommodate up to 12 units. Adequate zoning is in place for Site A, via the Housing Overlay. Site B may be considered as a potential housing site in the future. Together, these two sites can accommodate the total dwelling units identified under the Housing Overlay policy, not to exceed 60 units. As described on pages 37-38, the Housing Overlay allows residential uses with approval of a Development Agreement. This permitting process is applied to all residential applications and is considered necessary given Vernon s unique industrial character. Through a Development Agreement that City can assure that measures will be in place to create the best possible housing solutions. The Development Agreement must at a minimum ensure that adequate emergency access is provided, that the development includes suitable open space amenities, and parking be provided to meet the anticipated needs of residents. On the two sites where the Housing Overlay applies, Zoning Ordinance regulations will allow for densities of up to 30 units per acre. The overlay exclusively allows for residential uses (no mixed use). Given the size of the largest site, at least 16 units can be constructed, per Section 65583.2(h) and (i) of the Government Code. The Housing Overlay is being adopted in conjunction with adoption of the Housing Element. The site on 52nd Street is to be developed with units all affordable to lower-income households, with the developer seeking Low Income Housing Tax Credit funding. In the event this development project does not move forward, the City will continue to seek a developer who can provide similar housing. While no density bonus has been deemed necessary to incentivize development of affordable housing, the City recognizes that developers can request a density bonus pursuant to State law. Because land use policy will not allow for additional housing development beyond the two sites identified in this element and given that densities are sufficient to encourage affordable housing Housing Element-55 Vernon General Plan Housing Element projects, the City does not see the need to adopt specific regulations for density bonuses. Thus, the City Zoning Ordinance will be amended simply to reference State law. With regard to housing persons in need of emergency shelter, in conjunction with adoption of the Housing Element the City has adopted Zoning Ordinance to establish an Emergency Housing overlay zone. This zone, applied to a large property in the northwest portion of Vernon, allows emergency shelters by right (see Figure H-5). The property is over five acres in size and can accommodate one or more shelters. Like all other properties in Vernon, the site is surrounded by industrial uses. However, this particular site is easily accessible from transit routes along Santa Fe Avenue and Alameda Street. The site is currently vacant and owned by the Alameda Corridor Transportation Agency. Responsible Agency: Department of Community Services Project Funding:Departmental Budget Timeframe: Development of housing to accommodate the RHNA by 2015; amend Zoning Ordinance by May 2013 to include reference to State law regarding density bonus provisions; immediate availability of Emergency Housing Overlay site for any application for such use. Program 7: Equal Housing Opportunity The Vernon City Clerk's Department is responsible for referring equal housing opportunity questions. Any questions or concerns raised by residents will be accepted by the City Clerk and brought before City Council for resolution. In order to disseminate information on fair housing resources more broadly, the City will place a link on the City's website that refers to the Housing Rights Center Frequently Asked Questions webpage on housing discrimination. Also, persons in need of transitional and supportive housing can readily be accommodated within any housing development proposed in the Housing Overlay zone. In conjunction with adoption of this Housing Element, the City has amended the Zoning Ordinance to define transitional and supportive housing as a standard residential uses of property permitted within the Housing Overlay zone. Any proposal for such housing is subject to the same permitting requirements (approval of a Development Agreement to define the site plan and development parameters) as any other type of housing. Housing Element-56 Vernon General Plan Housing Element Responsible Agency: Department of Community Services; City Clerk Project Funding:Departmental Budget Timeframe:June 2013 5.3 Redevelopment Agency Dissolution On December 29, 2011 the California Supreme Court issued a ruling upholding AB 1X 26, legislation that called for the elimination of hundreds of local redevelopment agencies in the state, including the Redevelopment Agency for the City of Vernon. The City of Vernon elected to become the Successor Agency of the former Vernon Redevelopment Agency and established an Oversight Board. As the Successor Agency, the Oversight Board oversees certain fiscal management of former Agency fund. This includes carrying out existing projects that are in various stages of development. The City was not required to set aside 20 percent of the tax increate collected in the Industrial Redevelopment Project Area to be used by the Agency to increase the City's supply of affordable housing, because it determined that were was no housing need in the City. Therefore, there are no existing housing set-aside funds for the Industrial Redevelopment Project Area. Housing Element-57 Vernon General Plan Housing Element This page intentionally left blank. Housing Element-58 VERNON GENERAL PLAN SAFETY ELEMENT Vernon General Plan Safety Element �r~ tl I1 !Jot J J A hr - 4J r SAFETY ELEMENT 1.0 PURPOSE AND FOCUS 1.1 Purpose The Safety Element identifies the natural and man-made hazards which affect public safety in the City, and establishes policies the City will pursue to minimize associated risks to life and property. Because these hazards can have significant economic consequences, identifying, understanding, and guarding against these hazards greatly benefits those who own property,work, and live in Vernon. 1.2 Focus Several different types of events could create critical situations affecting public safety in Vernon. Generally, public safety risks can be divided into two categories: environmental events and events arising from human actions. In Vernon, environmental events include earthquakes and flooding. Human-caused hazards such as chemical spills, hazardous materials release, and train, truck or plane accidents have greater potential to cause upset in Vernon given its industrial Safety Element-1 Vernon General Plan Safety Element nature. Increasingly in all cities in the nation, the threat of terrorist activity represents a new public safety concern requiring special treatment. This Element addresses each of these potential safety risks and discusses how the City will respond to each. Also addressed are evacuation routes necessary to move people away from hazardous conditions. Vernon Fire Station #3 r � ��- qb4t 2.0 IDENTIFYING AND GUARDING AGAINST HAZARDS Four natural hazards of particular importance that could affect Vernon are identified in the Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan. Earthquakes represent a significant threat, with the associated strong ground shaking and possibility of liquefaction in some areas. Flooding is a concern as well,with Los Angeles River as the major source. Unusual rainfall amounts may also cause flooding if storm drain facilities are inadequate to accommodate the resulting high volume of runoff. Inundation from dam failure is a remote possibility but must nevertheless be addressed. The fourth natural hazard is a significant windstorm event. Southern California is occasionally raked by moderate to severe wind events called "Santa Ana winds" that blow hot, dry air into the Los Angeles Basin from the desert. These winds tend to be most severe downwind of mountain passes, but can affect the urban flatlands as well. Wind speeds of up to 65 miles per hour are not uncommon, and local gusts may substantially exceed these speeds. Safety Element-2 Vernon General Plan Safety Element Since Vernon and its surrounding areas are completely urbanized, with little natural vegetation, there is almost no risk of damage from wildfires. Urban fire protection is discussed in Section 2.2 of this Element. Human-caused hazards include the risk of explosion or leaks from stored chemical and petroleum products, or from derailment or collision of railcars or trucks carrying hazardous chemical or materials. Chemical spills are also a concern because of the industrial nature of the uses in Vernon. Fire hazards are prevalent due to the nature of the industrial uses and intensely developed character of properties. A fire during a windstorm, which combines both a natural and a human- caused hazard,can represent a serious threat to public safety. Some events are particularly difficult to anticipate and prepare a programmed response for. Since the 9/11 attack on New York's World Trade Center, the threat of terrorist activity has been of major concern to the nation and the world. As with both natural and human-caused hazards, a terrorist event could occur outside Vernon yet directly impact the City. Programs to deal with such an event require a cooperative approach with regional agencies. Activities such as a labor strike or other demonstration usually present a low risk to public safety, but public safety personnel must plan for responses to these situations to maintain public order. R Railcars carrying materials through Vernon T� ell— Safety Element-3 Vernon General Plan Safety Element The City's Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) Multi-Hazard Functional Plan (MHFP) discusses and contains programs and plans for emergency responses to the safety concerns described above. This document includes pre- emergency preparedness plans and programs for mutual aid between organizations for virtually any emergency situation. 2.1 Natural Hazards Seismic Event Southern California is one of the most seismically active regions of the United States, given its location at the edge of the Pacific Plate. Although no major faults have been identified by Alquist-Priolo statewide mapping efforts as crossing through Vernon, the many fault systems that traverse Los Angeles County and the broader region, along with unmapped blind thrusts, have the potential to cause damage in the City in the event of an earthquake. Figure S-1 identifies regional fault systems, including major faults within 20 miles of the City. Severe ground shaking can cause damage to buildings with corresponding threats of injury or loss of life.

HonvalfA k -------r Quatemary Faults Source Cluaiemary Faults,U-S.Geological Survey(USGS),November 2010 Miles 6 2.5 5 Safety Element-4 Vernon General Plan Safety Element A secondary effect of ground shaking is soil liquefaction, which can result in building instability or failure. This is not considered a serious threat in Vernon, but some areas of the City could be affected (see Figure S-2). Liquefaction can occur when loose, unconsolidated, water-laden soils lose their structure during strong ground shaking. These hazards can be mitigated at the development stage through the removal and re-compaction of suspect soils. Vernon's standard practice of requiring engineering studies for new development projects reduces the risk of liquefaction hazards in those susceptible areas identified on Figure S-2. Figure S-2:Liquefaction Zone E 37th S[ �c1 ' E Vernon Ave g U_ N Q m 'S O' '' m n E� 5lauson ve V' � Slauson Av .•��Ir+ U � — a;' S1at+sonA ._. ' Ga9eRve � ____ Lace: i mia epa en o nsery - - Liquefaction Zone Miles 0 0.5 1 E) In addition to damage to buildings, earthquakes often result in damage to public and private infrastructure. Ruptured gas or oil lines may result in explosions or leaks, and facilities storing chemicals or flammable materials may also be damaged causing leaks or explosion. Water lines, sewer lines, and reservoirs can also be damaged. Electrical facilities, particularly transformer and power lines, are susceptible to damage resulting in a possible injury or loss of life as well as a power loss. To reduce the scope of damage in the event of an earthquake, Vernon will continue to require new construction to meet mandated seismic safety codes. Retrofit of older structures will continue pursuant to Municipal Code requirements, and Safety Element-5 Vernon General Plan Safety Element the City will continue ongoing efforts to upgrade infrastructure pursuant to the Capital Improvement Plan. In addition, the programs the City has in place to guard against hazardous materials spills and releases also help to protect these materials from being released during ground-shaking hazards. Through both preventative measures and strong, organized emergency response, Vernon will continue to take steps to minimize risks associated with earthquakes. Flooding Although the Los Angeles River flows through Vernon for a distance longer than three miles and would frequently overflow its banks under historic natural conditions, the river was contained within a concrete-lined flood control channel early in the twentieth century, substantially reducing the potential for overflowing of the river banks or overtopping of the dams that could cause flooding of adjacent areas. In the rainy season of 2004-2005, the Los Angeles area received the second highest rainfall ever recorded, approximately three times the normal amount, yet the river channel proved adequate to accommodate this flow. A In the past, localized flooding has A. occurred during heavy rainstorms. !r _ However, storm drain improvements have substantially reduced this problem. Flood hazards related to storm events generally are described in -= -- terms of a 100-year or 500-year flood. A 100-year flood is defined as a major flood event that has a one percent or greater chance of - - - occurring during any one year. Los Angeles River Flood hazard planning practices address such storms, as well as 500-year events. These floods are considered severe; however, these floods can be reasonably predicted and therefore reasonably mitigated. With the flood control system of the Los Angeles River in place, the Federal Emergency Management Agency does not identify any 100-year floodplain areas in the City of Vernon. FEMA maps identify a small portion of southeast Vernon within the 500-year flood zone (Figure S-3). The existing flood control system appears to be adequate to serve the City's needs.

Dam failure can occur due to an earthquake, erosion, design flaw, or water overflow during storms. Dam inundation maps represent the best estimate of where water would flow in if a dam with a full reservoir suddenly failed completely. Figure S-4 shows areas that would be affected in the event of dam failure. Nearly all of the land in Vernon lies within the potential inundation areas for both Hansen Dam and Sepulveda Dam, which are located in separate areas of the San Fernando Valley, more than 20 miles northwest of the City. In the unlikely event that a catastrophic earthquake causes the collapse of either of these dams, water and debris would flow to and then generally along the Los Angeles River in a fairly narrow stream before spreading out over a swath of the coastal plain several miles wide, including Vernon. The official map from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers predicts that the flow from Sepulveda Dam, 24 miles away from Vernon, would take more than eight hours to reach the City. Flow from Hansen Dam, also 24 miles away, is predicted to take more than 19 hours to reach Vernon. The flow from either dam would probably peak at a depth of 2 feet in the Safety Element- 7 Vernon General Plan Safety Element vicinity of Vernon. The expected long delay between dam breach and the arrival of the flow should give ample time for emergency services to respond, as outlined in the City's SEMS Multi-Hazard Functional Plan (MHFP).

Hansen Dam Inundation Area 1 2 ilrirrir:as r.: Windstorms Windstorms present a potential hazard through their ability to damage buildings and public facilities such as street traffic control lights and public signs. In addition to the damage to buildings, the most significant threat to public safety is from flying debris. While this problem is not usually as severe as that experienced in hurricanes or tornados,maintaining public awareness of the hazard is important. Regionally, the hot, dry Santa Ana winds can create severe brushfire dangers, but this is not a particularly severe problem in Vernon, as there is little vegetation. Safety Element-8 Vernon General Plan Safety Element 2.2 Human-caused Hazards Risk of Explosion and Hazardous Materials Spills Many varied materials of an explosive or hazardous nature are stored and used by many businesses in Vernon. Because of the industrial nature of the City, the geographic scope is citywide. In addition, the presence of major rail lines and transfer yards, together with the Long Beach Freeway (1-710) and Alameda Corridor, which carry high volumes of truck and train traffic to and from the ports, pose real threats in the event of a spill. To address local storage issues,the City Environmental Health Department maintains a complete inventory of the locations where hazardous materials are stored and used. A detailed response program defines the actions to be taken by the Fire Department and Environmental Health Department in the event of a problem involving a spill or explosion. This program focuses on the evacuation of persons, as well as containment and cleanup. Hazardous Materials Emergency Response operate the Spartan Super Vac Hazardous Materials Unit �if With regard to terrorism concerns, possible targets in Vernon include the major rail yards, power generation facilities, and any business with significant volumes of hazardous materials. Federal agencies are responsible for safe-guarding transportation facilities, and Vernon will cooperate with these agencies in these efforts. With regard to protection of local businesses, routine patrol activities of the Police Department and heightened training and vigilance are undertaken in order to address these concerns. The City will provide Police personnel with appropriate training to minimize such threats. Safety Element-9 Vernon General Plan Safety Element Fire Department The Vernon Fire Department is rated as Class I by Insurance Services Office, Inc., one of only ten cities in California and 35 nationwide to earn this distinction. The Department provides a variety of emergency services, including fire protection, emergency medical services, urban search and rescue, and hazardous materials control. Staff at each of Vernon s four fire stations is fully trained for fighting fires. Each station is equipped with three to six response vehicles, but also has its own specialization. Fire Station 1 at 3375 Fruitland Avenue serves both as Fire Department headquarters and training center. The personnel at Fire Station 2, rebuilt in 2007 at 4301 Santa Fe Avenue, adjacent to City Hall, are all trained as hazardous materials specialists. Paramedics trained in advanced life support at Fire Station 3, at 2800 Soto Street, respond to all emergency situations, and this station is also home to a squad trained in all manners of urban search and rescue techniques. Despite being in a completely urbanized area, Fire Station 4 sends specialized personnel to respond to wildfires through the statewide mutual aid system. 3.0 GOALS AND POLICIES Vernon has fewer than 200 permanent residents, but the employment population approaches 45,000 during a typical 24-hour period. Police, fire, and paramedic facilities and personnel must be adequate to provide services to this larger community of workers. Public safety personnel must be prepared to handle potential emergency situations of all kinds: hazardous materials spills, explosions, earthquakes, and train accidents. Additionally, as an industrial city, Vernon must be prepared for the possibility of labor issues such as strikes disrupting the City and requiring responses from public safety personnel. GOAL S-1 Minimize the risk to public health, safety, and welfare associated with the presence of natural and human-caused hazards. POLICY S-1.1: Periodically update and maintain the Multi-hazard Functional Plan in an effort to identify potential contingencies and emergency Safety Element-10 Vernon General Plan Safety Element conditions and define the necessary response by public safety and other personnel. POLICY S-1.2: Cooperate with other jurisdictions in the southeast area of Los Angeles County to maintain an up-to-date emergency response system for the region. POLICY S-1.3: Prepare and disseminate information to residents and businesses on preparing for and responding to a major earthquake or potential terrorist threat. POLICY S-1.4: Maintain the public water distribution and supply system facilities to provide adequate capacity to meet both everyday and emergency fire-flow needs. POLICY S-1.5: Coordinate with the Los Angeles Unified School District for protection and or evacuation of school children in the event of an emergency condition, which could affect the schools in or near Vernon. GOAL S-2 Provide a high degree of protection for all residents and workers from hazardous materials and the hazards associated with transport of such materials. POLICY S-2.1: Continue to support and encourage State efforts to identify existing or previously existing hazardous waste generators or disposal sites in the City of Vernon. POLICY S-2.2: Continue to require every business to maintain a list of the chemicals and other hazardous materials used or stored on site in accordance with appropriate material safety data sheets and otherwise in accordance with law, and to provide that list to the Fire Department and Environmental Health Department. Require that the Fire Department and Environmental Health Department to maintain a list of such materials and the location where they are stored or used to permit emergency personnel to respond appropriately,if required. Safety Element-11 Vernon General Plan Safety Element POLICY S-2.3: Permit new residential uses only within the Housing Overlay District. Strategically identify sites for new housing in areas determined to be most compatible for housing with limited hazard impacts. GOAL S-3 Maintain high standards for the provision of City emergency services. POLICY S-3.1: Establish and implement plans for continuity of government for Vernon in the event of a catastrophe. POLICY S-3.2: Require businesses handling, transporting, or producing materials considered acutely hazardous to prepare contingency plans for accidents involving these chemicals. POLICY S-3.3: Support the development and continued updating of public safety education programs. POLICY S-3.4: Undertake steps to inform all residents and businesses of the importance of visible and clearly legible signs and street numbers in shortening the response time of emergency personnel. POLICY S-3.5: Periodically review the City's emergency service equipment to determine if it is adequate to meet the needs of changing land uses and development types. POLICY S-3.6: Require new development projects that necessitate the purchase of public safety equipment to underwrite or share in purchase costs. POLICY S-3.7: Develop a new Emergency Operations Center (EOC) with adequate space and facilities to respond to any emergency situation which may arise. POLICY S-3.8: Continue to support the Vernon Fire Department in its effort to maintain its high rating. Safety Element-12 Vernon General Plan Safety Element GOAL S-4 Provide a high degree of protection for all workers and residents in the event of any disaster. POLICY S4.1: Review the risks related to a possible train derailment or collision, and develop appropriate response programs. POLICY S4.2: Review the design of new development projects to consider public safety and issues such as emergency access, defensible space, and overall safety. POLICY S4.3: Design and maintain an effective plan for the prompt evacuation of the City in the event of a dam inundation or other major disaster requiring the removal of workers or residents from Vernon. POLICY S-4.4: Identify facilities for use as emergency/disaster shelters for those unable to leave or required to stay within the City in the event of a major disaster or emergency event.

Safety Element-14 VERNON GENERAL PLAN RESOURCES ELEMENT Vernon General Plan Resources Element r Mai RESOURCES ELEMENT 1.0 PURPOSE AND FOCUS 1.1 Purpose As a fully developed city, Vernon has few remaining natural resources in the conventional sense of undeveloped land, native vegetation, and wildlife habitat. The two natural resources that are present and important are groundwater and the air. Both have been affected by urban development, but both sustain development in the City and respresent critical regional resources. Vernon's groundwater serves as a portion of the City's water supply. Clean air, of course, provides a healthier environment and may help minimize some aspects of global warming. The open spaces that exist in Vernon are limited to privately owned landscaping around buildings, utility easements, rail yards, and the Los Angeles River. Given the industrial nature of Vernon, expanses of open space are not needed for recreational purposes. However, open space does provide visual relief from hard urban surfaces. Resources Element-1 Vernon General Plan Resources Element This Element establishes City policies intended to best manage the limited available natural resources in Vernon and to encourage continued participation in broader efforts to protect the environment from harmful human activities. 1.2 Focus This Resources Element combines two elements required by the California Government Code-the Conservation Element and the Open Space Element-and focuses on the protection and preservation of resources within the City. In addition to groundwater and air resources, additional resource issues addressed are local open space, historic/cultural resources, and the national issue of energy use. 2.0 IDENTIFYING AND PROTECTING LOCAL RESOURCES 2.1 Water Quality and Supply Potable water resources in Vernon are limited to the groundwater basins that underlie the City (and surrounding lands) and recycled water. Local groundwater is contained within the Los Angeles River and Gaspar aquifers, which supply a significant portion of the water used by businesses in Vernon. Because these basins extend beneath surrounding jurisdictions, activities both in Vernon and other cities affect the quantity and quality of groundwater. Potential contamination and depletion of the underground basins have been historic concerns, and conditions are continuously monitored to guard against possible interruption of supply. Water quality standards established by federal and State agencies and requirements for water quality monitoring protect industrial users from contamination and ensure sage drinking water supplies. In particular, National Pollution Discharge Elimination Systems (NPDES) requirements enforced by the State Regional Water Quality Control Board require the control and clean up of surface runoff prior to its discharge into storm drain systems and ultimately, into groundwater basins or surface waters. State agencies continue to press for percolation as a means of reclaiming stormwater runoff,both as a mechanism to replenish aquifers and to allow for continued natural cleaning processes. Given Vernon's built-out condition and the severe lack of open space, clean-up and recharge via percolation proves difficult. Resources Eleinent-2 Vernon General Plan Resources Element As described in the Circulation and Infrastructure Element, three water agencies supply water within Vernon (see Figure CI-3). Most of the geographical are of Vernon is supplied by the City's Water Department. The California Water Service Company (Cal Water), East Los Angeles District, Commerce System serves some of the northeast portion of Vernon, and a small portion of southeast Vernon is serviced by Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3. Many of the food processing and other industries common in Vernon are water-intensive uses. Analysis of water resources for the City of Vernon Water Department, including supply sources, is contained in the 2010 Urban Water Management Plan (which is periodically updated). In 2005, water use in Vernon's service area was approximately 12,000 acre-feet per year (AFY).1 By 2010, water use had decreased to approximately 9,000 AFY. Of that, approximately 84 percent of the water supply was obtained from groundwater sources. Less than eight percent was purchased from the Central Basin Municipal Water District (CBMWD), and slightly more than eight percent came from recycled water supplies. As reported in the City's 2010 Urban Water Management Plan, water demand in 2025 is projected to increase to approximately 13,800 AFY (which assumed construction of a new power plant). As stated in the plan, Vernon's infrastructure is designed to meet a high level of demand from the commercial and industrial sectors; associated water demand may shift over time depending on current businesses and industrial practices. By planning for this high level of demand, sufficient flexibility is provided over the long term to maintain the City's business plan. Water conservation programs are in place, and internal water recycling by specific businesses helps reduce overall demand. Because Vernon is built out, new businesses will simply replace those that exist today, and water consumption over time normally would not be expected to increase significantly. By 2035, water supply is anticipated to increase substantially (by approximately 145 percent) due largely to the increase in supply from recycled water sources. The number of acre-feet produced from the City Water Department's wells is not 'An acre-foot of water equals 325,851 gallons,or about the amount of water a family of four consumes in a year. Resources Element-3 Vernon General Plan Resources Element expected to substantially increase, and the amount purchased from CBMWD is expected to approximately double. By 2035, Vernon's water supply profile is projected to be 37 percent from groundwater, 10 percent from CBMWD, and 53 percent from recycled sources. The majority of any new demand will be served throught the use of recycled water, indicating the City's commitment to conservation of its water resources, good water management practices, and sustainability of resources. Parts of northeastern Vernon are within California Water Service Company's (Cal Waters) District. Since the area is completely urbanized, annual growth is very slow; since 1980 the amount of water used in the service area has never increased by more than 0.5 percent from year to year. Only 30 of Maywood Mutual Water Company #3's 2,000 service connections are in the City of Vernon; the rest are in the Cities of Maywood and Bell. In 2006, Vernon s connections totaled 34.5 acre-feet of water usage. Early in 2007 a new Matheson Tri-Gas plant opened in this area, which had been projected to add 150 annual acre-feet of usage, but has instead shown to only use water commensurate with a 30 acre- feet per year increase in water usage. Maywood Mutual #3 currently derives all of its water supplies from its own groundwater wells. Its three wells are capable of producing approximately 4,500 acre-feet per year, and have historically produced between 1,400 and 1,750 acre-feet per year. Agreements are in place with the Metropolitan Water District that would allow Maywood Mutual #3 to purchase 2,500 acre-feet of water per year if necessary, for a total possible supply of 7,000 acre-feet per year. This would be more than four times the current usage within Maywood Mutual #3's service area. Maywood Mutual #3 reports that groundwater production is adequate for current and any foreseen future demand. 2.2 Air Quality The quality of the air in Southern California is determined by many regional factors: prevailing winds, persistent inversion conditions, the commute habits of 10 million-plus people within the air basin, and the presence of major ports and industry. Vernon lies within the South Coast Air Basin, a geographic area that extends from the Pacific Ocean to the San Gabriel Mountains, and from the Ventura County boundary Resources Eleinent-4 Vernon General Plan Resources Element east to the San Bernardino and San Jacinto Mountains. The air basin is a non-attainment area for federal and State air quality standards for ozone, particulate matter less than 10 microns in diameter (PMio), particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM2.5), and lead. The basin is a non-attainment area for State standards with regard to nitrogen dioxide (NO2). The South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) regulates air quality improvement programs within the basin and works to improve regional air quality to achieve federal and State standards. At the local level, emissions from stationary sources (industry, power plants, etc.) and from vehicles discharge chemicals and particulate matter into the air, and these emissions are further transformed in the atmosphere by photochemical action into ozone and other health-threatening pollutants. As heavy industry is prevalent in Vernon, most local businesses are heavily regulated by SCAQMD. Emissions from trucks, cars, and trains are regulated by State and federal agencies, meaning the Vernon City Council and City staff have little ability to affect those factors that most significantly contribute to regional air quality conditions. However, the City recognizes its responsibility to participate in regional efforts to continue to improve air quality. City programs in this regard include City purchase and use of alternative fuel vehicles and fuel-efficient vehicles. In 2006, about 3.5 percent of the vehicles owned by the City used alternative fuels. As the City replaces its fleet of vehicles, consideration and priority will be given to the purchase of more vehicles using hybrid or electric engines or other emerging technologies that replace fossil fuels. Because motor vehicles represent a significant source of pollutant emissions, one key approach to reducing emissions is to reduce vehicle miles traveled. In 2006, businesses in Vernon employed 44,225 workers locally. Many employers have large workforces, offering opportunities for carpooling and other ride-sharing arrangements. Also, many Metro bus lines serve the City, and Blue Line light rail has stops that readily serve Vernon businesses (provided one is willing to walk or take bus connections from the train stations). The City is in a position to encourage transit use and ride sharing by serving as an information hub and clearinghouse for local businesses. Reducing the volume of cars on local streets can help reduce regional emissions and allow Vernon to contribute to regional air quality improvements. Resources Element-5 Vernon General Plan Resources Element 2.3 Global Warming In 2006, the California Legislature adopted AB 32, the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006, to address concerns regarding the potential impact of climate change on the State's economy and the environment. The legislation requires the California Air Resources Board to determine the level of greenhouse gases produced in 1990 and outline strategies to ensure that the level of emissions in 2020 do not exceed the 1990 level. The overall goal is to establish a comprehensive program of regulatory and market mechanisms to achieve real, quantifiable, cost-effective reductions of greenhouse gas emissions. Specifically, AB 32 (as codified in the California Health and Safety Code) requires the California Air Resources Board to: ■ Establish a statewide greenhouse gas emissions cap for 2020,based on 1990 emissions ■ Adopt mandatory reporting rules for significant sources of greenhouse gases ■ Adopt a plan indicating how emission reductions will be achieved from significant greenhouse gas sources via regulations,market mechanisms,and other actions ■ Adopt regulations to achieve the maximum technologically feasible and cost-effective reductions in greenhouse gas,including provisions for using both market mechanisms and alternative compliance mechanisms SB 375, passed into law in 2008, has the goal of fostering development patterns—and more compact patterns in particular—that reduce the need to drive, thereby reducing air pollution from car exhaust, conserving water, and protecting habitat, among other benefits. This law is designed to align regional land use, housing, and transportation plans with greenhouse gas reduction targets. In Vernon, emissions are regulated by the Southern California Air Quality District, as well as State and federal agencies. The agencies have imposed regulations to reduce emissions from both stationary and vehicular sources. These actions have led to a substantial improvement in air quality in the Southern California air basin and presumably have had a concurrent effect on greenhouse gas emissions. Further reductions are Resources Element-6 Vernon General Plan Resources Element anticipated as new requirements are imposed by current legislation and regulations. The City of Vernon is a built out city, and the General Plan does not provide for any substantive increase in either square footage in industrial development or substantive increases in employment (see Table LU-1 in the Land Use Element). Future residential development is limited pursuant to the Land Use Element. This limited residential development will provide a new housing opportunity for local workers to live near places of employment in Vernon, furthering SB 375 goals. Given the limited changes anticipated as part of this General Plan, the issue of increased emissions resulting from growth is not a significant concern. 2.4 Energy Supplies Industrial businesses in Vernon require reliable energy supplies for industrial processes and refrigeration. In 1932, the citizens of Vernon supported a bond measure that authorized the City to construct a power plant. This enabled the City to build its own electric power generating plant—to meet the needs of this"exclusively industrial city". Since then, the City has been able to provide reliable and comparatively low-cost electric power to its customers. In 2005, the City completed construction of the Malburg Generating Station, a new natural-gas-powered power plant that provides electricity to many businesses in Vernon. The City recognizes that energy conservation benefits consumers in the form of lower energy costs. Conservation also reduces the need for construction of costly new energy production facilities. Finally, conservation helps efforts to improve regional air quality by reducing pollutant emissions from older power generation plants in Southern California. Vernon. The City is committed to working with local businesses to help them be energy efficient and help keep rates low. 2.5 Open Space The major open space resources in Vernon consist of the Los Angeles River Channel and utility easements. No riparian habitat exists, as the Los Angeles River channel is concrete lined along this portion of the river. Given the City's industrial character, Vernon does not contain and does not have a need for public parks. Private open spaces on industrial properties Resources Element- 7 Vernon General Plan Resources Element are limited as well, as most buildings are built to the sidewalk line, leaving limited area for on-site landscaping. Over time, requirements for site-specific runoff control may result in property owners devoting portions of setback or parking areas to green space. Additional green space may also be added through the middle of Vernon if plans progress for the "re-greening' of the Los Angeles River. The Los Angeles River Master Plan, adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors in 1996, calls for a greenway along the bank, a trail and murals along the west levee, an interpretive exhibit near the Bandini Avenue crossing, and a passive park area near Atlantic Avenue. As of 2007, no funding source or preliminary plan for creation of additional open space within the City of Vernon currently exists. 2.6 Cultural Resources In 1847, the Mexican militia fought U.S. troops under the command of U.S. Army General Stephen Watts Kearny and U.S. Navy Captain Robert F. Stockton along the San Gabriel River. The battle of La Mesa, in present-day Vernon, occurred on January 9, 1847 and ended with the Mexicans overwhelmed by a strong American advance. On January 10, Mexican leaders surrendered peacefully to the Americans, who promptly occupied the city of Los Angeles. Between 1847 and the early years of the twentieth century, the lands that now comprise Vernon were dedicated largely to agriculture, with John B. Leonis representing one of the key ranchers/landholders in the area. Vernon incorporated in 1905 as an"exclusively industrial" city and was named after a dirt road,Vernon Avenue, crossing its center. In the following years, many diverse industries established major facilities in the City, taking advantage of the rail access and, with the construction in 1932 of a City-owned power plant, low-cost electricity. The industrial buildings that house these diverse industries well serve their industrial functions, but also display architecture representative of distinct periods and styles. The busy building period of the 1920s and '30s produced several Streamline Moderne structures, and wonderful brick buildings can be found throughout the City. A notable landmark is the Farmer John mural surrounding the company's meat processing facility on Vernon Avenue. Resources Eleinent-8 Vernon General Plan Resources Element Vernon will assist in the effort to preserve the memory of early Los Angeles, and tell the story of its growth and development, through taking and retaining photographs of buildings and structures that may have architectural or historic interest. 3.0 GOALS AND POLICIES GOAL R-1 Conserve and protect the region's water and energy resources.

Resources Element-12 VERNON GENERAL PLAN NOISE ELEMENT Vernon General Plan Noise Element EI� NOISE ELEMENT 1.0 PURPOSE AND FOCUS 1.1 Purpose The purpose of the Noise Element is to identify significant sources of noise in Vernon and to identify ways to protect people living and working in Vernon from extensive exposure to excessive or unhealthy noise levels. Per the California Administrative Code, all general plans must include a Noise Element. The Noise Element sets the framework for working toward and maintaining environmental noise control appropriate to individual communities. The Element establishes goals, policies, and programs that identify possible approaches to protecting the business community and the few people living in Vernon from excessive noise. 1.2 Focus In recognition of the adverse health effects associated with excessive noise, the California Government Code, Section 65302(f), identifies the types of community noise to be addressed in the General Plan. The Noise Element is to identify noise sources from: ■ Freeways and street systems; ■ Freight on-line railroad operations; Noise Element-1 Vernon General Plan Noise Element ■ Local industrial plants, including, but not limited to, railroad classification yards; and ■ Other stationary ground noise sources identified by local agencies as contributing to the community noise environment. Vernon is unique in that its status as an all-industrial community establishes different sensitivities regarding noise than those present in typical suburban or even mixed-use urban areas. Local businesses are not significantly impacted by higher noise levels that would not be appropriate in a residential neighborhood or near schools,parks,or hospitals. 2.0 ABOUT NOISE Noise is often defined as unwanted, excessive, or irksome sound. Sound - and noise - consists of waves of energy that we receive and interpret. To describe the character of a particular noise, acousticians must have information about: ■ The amplitude and amplitude variation of the acoustical wave, ■ The frequency (pitch) content of the noise,and ■ The duration of the noise. 2.1 Noise Metrics Definitions of the most commonly used terms encountered in community noise assessments and noise control are provided in the General Plan Glossary. Of these terms, the A-weighted sound pressure level, or dB(A), is the scale of measurement that is most useful in community noise measurement. This sound level is measured in decibels to provide a scale with the range and characteristics most consistent with that of peoples' sensitivity to sounds, as described below. Since decibels are logarithmic units, sound pressure levels cannot be added or subtracted by ordinary arithmetic means. For example, if one automobile produces a sound pressure level of 70 dB when it passes an observer, two cars passing simultaneously would not produce 140 dB. In fact, they would combine to produce 73 dB. This same principle can be applied to other traffic quantities as well. In other words, doubling the traffic volume on a street or the speed of the traffic will increase the traffic noise level by 3 dB. Conversely, halving the Noise Element-2 Vernon General Plan Noise Element traffic volume or speed will reduce the traffic noise level by 3 dB. Sound pressure level alone is not a reliable indicator of loudness. The frequency or pitch of a sound also has a substantial effect on how humans will respond. While the intensity of the sound is a purely physical quantity, the loudness or human response depends on the characteristics of the human ear. Human hearing is limited not only to the range of audible frequencies, but also in the way it perceives the sound pressure level in that range. In general, the healthy human ear is most sensitive to sounds between 1,000 hertz (Hz) and 5,000 Hz, and perceives both higher and lower frequency sounds of the same magnitude with less intensity. To approximate the frequency response of the human ear, a series of sound pressure level adjustments is usually applied to the sound measured by a sound level meter. The adjustments, or weighting network, are frequency dependent. The A-scale approximates the frequency response of the average young ear when listening to most ordinary everyday sounds. When people make relative judgments of the loudness or annoyance of a sound, their judgments correlate well with the A-scale sound levels of those sounds. A range of noise levels associated with common indoor and outdoor activities is shown in Figure N-1.

Branch and R. Dale Beland. The A-weighted sound level of traffic and other long-term noise-producing activities within and around a community varies considerably with time. Measurements of this varying noise level are accomplished by recording values of the A- weighted level during representative periods within a specified portion of the day. It is recognized that a given level of noise may be more or less tolerable depending on the duration of exposure experienced by an individual. There are numerous measures of noise Noise Element-4 Vernon General Plan Noise Element exposure that consider not only the A- Figure N-2: Examples of Noise at level variation of noise but also the Southern California Locations duration of the disturbance.

State and 30 Inc- federal safety and health regulations Source:Wieland Associates Inc. currently protect workers at levels of exposure that exceed 90 dB(A) for each eight-hour workday. Speech intelligibility is impaired when sound levels exceed 60 dB(A). The level of interference increases with sound level and the distance between speaker and listener. Sound levels that exceed 40 to 45 dB(A) are generally considered to be excessive for sleeping areas within a residence. 2.3 Community Noise Standards Vernon has established community noise standards to help guide land use decisions and protect sensitive uses from excessive noise levels, as shown in Figure N-3. Because the City consists almost exclusively of industrial uses and policy set forth in the Housing Element limits the construction of any new housing to only a few specifically identified sites in recognition of the hazards - including high noise levels - associated with widespread industrial activity, these Noise Element-5 Vernon General Plan Noise Element standards discourage any new noise-sensitive use that would be incompatible with the City's industrial focus. Similarly, zoning regulations prohibit community facilities such as schools, day care centers,and hospitals.

NORMALLY INCOMPATIBLE New construction or development should generally be discouraged.If new construction or development does proceed,a detailed analysis of noise reduction requirements must be made and needed noise insulation features included in the design. CLEARLY INCOMPATIBLE New construction or development should generally not be undertaken. Noise Element-6 Vernon General Plan Noise Element 3.0 NOISE ENVIRONMENT IN 2007 In 2007, the City conducted a comprehensive noise survey of the community to document the noise environment. Measurements were taken at eleven locations, including two border locations in adjacent communities. Three measurements consisted of 24-hour recordings of the sound environment, and the balance were limited duration measurements at representative locations throughout Vernon and, as noted above, on the border of neighboring communities. In conjunction with an update to the Land Use and Housing Elements in 2013, focused noise measurements were taken near locations considered for permanent and emergency housing. The most significant noise-producing activity within Vernon involves the transportation systems: the arterial roadways and train movements along regional rail lines. In addition, many major manufacturing businesses create high noise levels. The only noise-sensitive land uses within the City are scattered residential units and the Vernon City Elementary School. Residences largely are clustered in four areas: on Vernon Avenue at Furlong Place, on Vernon Avenue between Downey Road and Alcoa Avenue, on Fruitland Avenue west of Downey Road, and on 52nd Place east of Atlantic Boulevard. The Emergency Shelter Overlay, which applies to a parcel in the northwest corner of the City, could accommodate emergency housing. Vernon City = Mr Elementary School is located at the southwest corner of Vernon Avenue and Santa Fe Avenue. The adjacent communities of Huntington Park and Maywood have residential neighborhoods and schools along and near their boundaries with Vernon. Vernon = has long practiced good neighbor policies with respect ` to these uses, cooperating with adjacent cities to minimize noise impacts on sensitive uses. Noise Element- 7 Vernon General Plan Noise Element 3.1 2007 CNEL Contours The noise measurements were modeled to create a community-wide "picture" of noise conditions. The CNEL contours for major arterial roadways and the I-710 freeway within the City were developed utilizing the Federal Highway Administration's Traffic Noise Model and traffic data obtained from Caltrans and citywide traffic count data (2004-2007). The railroad contours were developed based on Wyle Laboratories' computational procedures and on a computer model developed by the Federal Transit Administration. Operational data for the railroads was obtained from Amtrak and Metrolink schedules, the Southern California Regional Rail Authority, the Alameda Corridor Transit Authority, the Union Pacific Company, and the Federal Railroad Administration Office of Safety Analysis. These noise measurements and modeling results collectively can be represented by noise contour lines. Similar to the way topographic maps show contours indicated elevation change, the noise contour maps indicate decreasing noise levels as you move away from the noise source. Figure N-4 illustrates the noise contours for year 2007. 3.2 Transportation Noise Sources Noise along Arterial Roadways Figure N-4 shows that noise levels associated with truck and automobile traffic along Vernon's arterial roadways are 70 CNEL along the roadway frontages. With regard to the gradual diminishment of noise as the receiver moves away from the street, the modeling does not take into account the mitigating effect of buildings that front the street.

Noise Element-10 Vernon General Plan Noise Element Freeway Noise The CNEL generated in Vernon by traffic on the I-710 freeway is as high as 80 dB. However, the land uses affected by the traffic noise are largely industrial in nature and are not noise sensitive. Train Noise The City is impacted by noise from train movements on six primary rail lines, numerous spur lines, and activities at the Burlington,Northern&Santa Fe (BNSF) rail yard, as well as at the Union Pacific (UPRR) rail yard in the City of Commerce. The CNEL associated with train movements in and through Vernon is as high as 80 dB. However,the land uses affected by the traffic noise are largely industrial in nature and are not noise sensitive. The primary source of annoyance to residents in the vicinity of the UPRR line adjacent to Downey Road is train horn soundings at crossings. 3.3 Industrial Noise Sources In general, industrial noise within the City is not considered excessive because Vernon is a predominantly industrial city with few noise-sensitive properties. However, at the few scattered residences within the City, as well as at the Vernon City Elementary School, noise levels can exceed generally acceptable standards for these noise-sensitive uses. The impact is primarily related to noise generated by loading dock operations, trucks entering and leaving the area, and mechanical equipment located both inside and outside building. Adjacent to the City of Vernon are residential neighborhoods in the cities of Huntington Park and Maywood. Noise measurements taken in 2006 indicated that while average noise levels ranged up to 66.7 dB(A) and noise spikes registered 87.6 dB(A) during daytime hours, the measured CNELs of 61.5 dB in Huntington Park and 64 dB in Maywood were less than the exterior CNEL standard of 70 dB for residential properties in Vernon. Noise Element-11 Vernon General Plan Noise Element 4.0 FUTURE NOISE ENVIRONMENT Figure N-5 indicates projected noise contours for year 2030, assuming growth in regional traffic volumes through Vernon and anticipated activity along rail lines, the Alameda Corridor, and the regional rail lines. Land use policy provides for continued industrial use throughout the community, with provision for commercial uses within the Commercial Overlay to meet the needs of the daytime employee population and allow for a broader mix of uses on aging industrial sites. As indicated above, land use policy limits the introduction of any new noise-sensitive uses to specifically identified sites along the edges of the City. Thus, the City does not anticipate any new noise conflicts will arise in Vernon over the life of this General Plan. With regard to existing conditions where established residences and Vernon City Elementary School sometimes experience high noise levels, the City works with surrounding businesses to achieve noise standards established in the Zoning Ordinance. 5.0 GOALS AND POLICIES As an industrial city, the aim of the Noise Element is to address compatibility among neighboring businesses and industries, and to work with adjacent communities to resolve any conflicts that may be associated with individual businesses along Vernon's municipal boundary. GOAL N-1 Reduce impacts from transportation noise sources to the extent they may affect industrial businesses. POLICY N-1.1: Encourage the effective enforcement of local, state, and federal noise levels by all appropriate City divisions. POLICY N-1.2: Review noise impacts when rail corridors are consolidated, and review ways to reduce impacts on adjacent businesses. POLICY N-1.3: Minimize adverse noise effects on new residential developments through carefully planned site design and construction approaches that limit noise intrusion,wherever practical.

Noise Element-15 Vernon General Plan Noise Element This page intentionally left blank. Noise Element-16 VERNON GENERAL PLAN APPENDIX A: IMPLEMENTATION PLAN Vernon General Plan Implementation Plan Appendix A : Implementation an This Implementation Plan guides City elected officials and staff in the overall effort to carry out adopted General Plan goals and policies. The purpose of the implementation programs is to enable the overall direction set forth in the General Plan to be translated from general terms to specific actions. Each implementation program is a procedure, program, or technique that requires City action, either alone or in collaboration with non-governmental or quasi-governmental organizations or state and federal agencies. Some of the implementation programs are processes or procedures the City currently administers on a day-to-day basis (such as development project review), while others identify new programs or projects. Completion of the identified programs will be subject to funding constraints. The implementation programs are organized into the following six subsections corresponding to the General Plan elements: • Land Use Element • Circulation and Infrastructure Element • Housing Element • Safety Element • Natural Resources Element • Noise Element Each implementation program relates directly to one or more General Plan policies, drawn from the various General Plan elements. For each program, the related General Plan policies are listed, along with the responsible City departments or other governmental agencies, the recommended time frame,and likely funding source or sources. The implementation programs are intended for use as the basis for preparing the Annual Report to the City Council on the status of the City's progress in implementing the General Plan, as described in Section 65400 of the Government Code. Because many of the individual actions and programs act as mitigation for environmental impacts resulting from planned Implementation Plan A-1 Vernon General Plan Implementation Plan development pursuant to the General Plan, the annual report can also provide a means of monitoring application of the mitigation measures as required by Public Resources Code Section 21081.6. The programs should be updated annually concurrent with the budget process and whenever the City's General Plan is amended or updated to ensure continued consistency and usefulness.

A major air pollutant consisting of tiny solid or liquid particles of soot, dust, smoke, fumes and aerosols. The size of the particles (10 microns or smaller, about 0.0004 inches or less) allows them to easily enter the air sacs in the lungs where they may be deposited,resulting in adverse health effects. PMlo also causes visibility reduction and is a criteria air pollutant. Private: Of or concerning a particular person or group; not owned by a government body. Public: Of the people as a whole,or for the use and benefit of all. Rail yard: A complex series of railroad tracks for storing, sorting, or loading/unloading, railroad cars and/or locomotives.

Reclaimed water: Former wastewater (sewage) that has been treated and purified for reuse,rather than discharged into a body of water. Also known as recycled water. Recycled water: See"reclaimed water." Redevelopment: Redevelopment, under the California Community Redevelopment Law, is a process with the authority, scope, and financing mechanisms necessary to provide stimulus to reverse current negative business trends,remedy blight, provide job development incentives, and create a new image for a community. It provides for the planning, development, redesign, clearance, reconstruction, or rehabilitation, or any combination of these, and the provision of public and private improvements as may be appropriate or necessary in the interest of the general welfare. In a more general sense, redevelopment is a process in which existing development and use of land is replaced with newer development and/or use. Regional: Pertaining to activities or economies at a scale greater than that of a single jurisdiction and affecting a broad homogeneous area. Glossary-6 Vernon General Plan Glossary Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA): The Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) is based on State of California projections of population growth and housing unit demand and assigns a share of the region's future housing need to each jurisdiction within the SCAG (Southern California Association of Governments) region. These housing need numbers serve as the basis for the update of the Housing Element in each California city and county. Regulation:A rule or order prescribed for managing government. Remediation: Removal of pollution or contaminants from environmental media such as soil, groundwater, sediment, or surface water for the general protection of human health and the environment. Rendering: Rendering is a process that converts waste animal tissue into stable, value- added materials.

Under state planning law, these special needs groups consist of seniors, disabled, large households, female-headed households with children,farmworkers,homeless,and students. Special Assessment District: A unique geographic area in which the market value of real estate is enhanced due to the influence of a public improvement and in which a tax is apportioned to recover the costs of the public improvement.

Examples of standards might include the number of acres of parkland per 1,000 population that the community will attempt to acquire and improve. (2) Requirements in a zoning ordinance that govern building and development as distinguished from use restrictions; for example, site design regulations such as lot area,height limit,frontage,landscaping,and floor area ratio. Stormwater runoff: Stormwater is a term used to describe water that originates during precipitation events or runoff water from overwatering that enters the stormwater system. Stormwater that does not soak into the ground becomes surface runoff, which either flows into surface waterways or is channeled into storm sewers. Subdivision: The division of a tract of land into defined lots, either improved or unimproved, which can be separately conveyed by sale or lease, and which can be altered or developed. "Subdivision" includes a condominium project as defined in Section 1350 of the California Civil Code and a community apartment project as defined in Section 11004 of the Business and Professions Code. Tax increment: Additional tax revenues that result from increases in property values within a redevelopment area. State law permits the tax increment to be earmarked for redevelopment purposes but requires at least 20 percent to be used to increase and improve the community's supply of affordable housing. Toxic: Poisonous. Traffic Model: A mathematical representation of traffic movement within an area or region based on observed relationships between the kind and intensity of development in specific areas. Units At-Risk of Conversion: Housing units that are currently restricted to low-income housing use and will become unrestricted and possibly be lost as low-income housing. Glossary-8 Vernon General Plan Glossary Use: The purpose for which land or a building is designed, arranged, or intended, or for which the land or building may be occupied or maintained. Vacant: Lands or buildings that are not actively used for any purpose. Volume-to-Capacity Ratio (V/C): A ratio between volume and theoretical roadway capacity, V/C is used to measure the performance of roadway facilities.

Capacity refers to the vehicle carrying ability of a roadway at free flow speed. Zoning: The division of a city or county by legislative regulations into areas, or zones, which specify allowable uses for real property and size restrictions for buildings within these areas; a program that implements policies of the General Plan.

Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance Article I. Introduction. Chapter 26. Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance Article I. Introduction. Sec. 26.1.1. Title. This Chapter and the accompanying Zoning Map shall be known as the "Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance of the City of Vernon" (hereinafter this "Chapter"), which for convenience may be referred to as the "Zoning Ordinance" or"this Ordinance". Sec. 26.1.2. Purpose and Intent. The purpose of this Chapter is to consolidate and coordinate all existing zoning regulations and provisions into one comprehensive zoning plan that designates, regulates, and restricts the use, location, and size of Buildings, Ancillary Structures, and land for industrial uses and other permitted purposes and that establishes performance and development standards in order to protect the public health, safety, and welfare. To achieve these purposes, this Chapter establishes one Zone within the City (Industrial) and various Overlay Zones of such number, shape, and area as have been deemed best suited to carry out these regulations and provide for the administration and enforcement of said regulations. It is declared that in the enactment of this Chapter, the City Council has given due and special consideration to the industrial nature of the City, and to the City's continuing focus on providing a suitable location for industry and the infrastructure and services required to serve industrial activities. The City's intent is to continue to support the ongoing industrial character of the City,while recognizing the changing industrial environment throughout the United States and globally, and to respond appropriately. The City Council has further seriously considered the impact of the City's pervasive industrial environment and resulting land use incompatibilities with certain other uses as a result of, among other issues, the storage,use, transportation, and processing of hazardous materials; background contamination; noxious odors; noise pollution; and truck and railroad traffic throughout the City. Sec. 26.1.3. Interpretation and Conflicts. This Chapter supersedes and replaces all prior zoning codes or ordinances and amendments thereto, and represents the entire and complete zoning ordinance for the City as of the date of its effective date. Wherever the requirements of this Chapter are at variance with the requirements of any other lawfully adopted rule, regulation, or ordinance, the most restrictive or that imposing the higher standards shall govern. Sec. 26.1.4. Applicability. This Chapter shall apply as follows: Sec.26.1.4-1. Buildings, Ancillary Structures, and Lots.

Whenever a power is granted to or a duty imposed upon a public officer by this Chapter, the power may be exercised or the duty may be performed by the City Council, that officer or a duly authorized representative of that officer, or a person authorized pursuant to law or ordinance,unless this Chapter expressly provides otherwise. Sec. 26.1.5. Vested Right. Nothing in this Chapter shall create or be construed to create any vested right in any Person. Sec. 26.1.6. Severability. If any provision or clause of this Chapter or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of this Chapter which can be carried out without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this Chapter are declared to be severable. Sec. 26.1.7. Statute of Limitations for Actions Attacking General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, or Zoning Decisions. Except as otherwise provided in the California Government Code Section 65009, no action or proceeding to attack, review, set aside,void, or annul the City Council's decision to adopt or amend its general plan or this Code, or any decision on the granting or denial of a Conditional Use Permit, Minor Conditional Use Permit,Temporary Use Permit,Variance, or Development Agreement, or to determine the reasonableness, legality, or validity of any condition attached to a Conditional Use Permit,Minor Conditional Use Permit,Temporary Use Permit,Variance,or Development Agreement or any other permit, or concerning any of the proceedings, acts, or determinations taken, done, or made prior to any decision in connection with any of the above, shall be maintained by any Person unless such action or proceeding is commenced and service is made on the City Council within ninety (90) days after the date of the City Council's decision.

The mailing was an invitation to attend one of two community workshops to discuss and provide input on the proposed revisions. Both workshops took place at Vernon City Hall Council Chambers. Comments received during the Community Workshops held on January 26th and February 5th regarding the proposed revisions are summarized in this memo. COMMENTS Residential Overlay • Long term property owner suggested that the City allow existing buildings to be used as lofts , art studios with living quarters etc. They mentioned that the City should not restrict locations for housing development,because in people eyes it seems that the only properties that can be developed are city owned properties. Instead of encouraging housing development.....it all looks one-sided. Retail and Commercial use • Why restrict wholesale businesses from doing retail.As it is,the majority of the wholesalers in Vernon are doing some type of retail.Why not make it easy for retailers, don't restrict property owners/business owners from expanding its uses. • Owners should not be restricted from renting or leasing existing office space within their existing building and shall not limit ancillary uses.Owners rather see the space occupied rather than vacant Landscape requirement(5%) • Concern that the landscape requirement will be taking-up future parking and loading spaces, because of the increase it would also prevent more development for these smaller property sites.

The Ci ty completed and certified a Program EIR which analyzed a comprehensive General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance. The adoption and implementation of a General Plan update and Zoning Ordinance revision constitute a "project" for the purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State CEQA Guidelines. Thus, this Supplemental EIR has been prepared to address the impacts associated with this project and in relation to the certified EIR. Legal Requirements This Supplemental EIR has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (Public Resources Code, Section 21000 et seq.), the Guidelines for Implementation of CEQA published by the Resources Agency of the State of California (California Code of Regulations, Section 15000 et seq.), and the City of Vernon's Local Guidelines for Implementing the California Environmental Quality Act. The report was prepared by professional environmental consultants under contract to the City of Vernon. The City of Vernon is the lead agency for the p reparation of this EIR, as defined by CEQA (Public Resources Code, Section 21067, as amended). The content of this document reflects the independent judgment of the City. Purpose of the Program EIR The certified Program EIR was intended to provide information to public agencies, the general public, and decision makers regarding potential environmental impacts related to the adoption and long-term implementation of the update d Vernon General Plan and revised Zon ing Ordinance. The purpose of an EIR, under the provisions of CEQA, is "to identify th e significant effects on the environment of a project, to identify alternatives to the project, and to indicate the manner in which those significant effects can be mitigated or avo ided." (Public Resources Code Section 21002.1[a]) The certified EIR was a Progra m EIR under the pro visions of Section 15168 of the State CEQA Guidelines. According to Section 15168 of the CEQA Guidelines, a Program EIR may be prepared on a series of actions that can be characterized as one large project, are related geographically, and represent logical parts in the chain of contemplated actions in connection with issuance of rules, regulations, or plans. The Program EIR allows for a more exhaustive consideration of effects and alternatives than would be practical in EIRs on separate individual actions. A Program EIR allows for consideration of cumulative impacts that might not be fully considered on a case-by-case basis. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 1.0-1 1.0 Introduction The certified Program EIR provides a first-tier analysis of the environmental effects of the Vernon General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance. Section 15152 of the CEQA Guidelines indicates that tiering is appropriate when the sequence of analysis is from an EIR prepared for a general plan, policy, or program to an EIR or negative declaration for another plan, policy, or program of lesser scope, or to a site specific EIR or negative declaration. Subsequent activities pursua nt to the updated Vernon General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance must be examined in light of the certified Program EIR to determine whether an additional environmental document must be prepared. If a subsequent project or later activity would have effects that were not examined in the certified Program EIR, or not examined at an appropriate level of detail to be used for the later activity, an initial study would need to be prepared, leading to a negative declaration or an EIR. If the City fin ds that pursuant to Section 15152 of the CEQA Guidelines, no new effects could occur or no new mitigation measures would be required on a subsequent project, the City can approve the activity as being within the scope of the project covered by the certified Program EIR, and no new environmental documentation would be required. Purpose of the Supplemental EIR CEQA authorizes a Lead or Responsible Agency to prepare a Supple ment to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary to a previously analyzed project and the conditions described in CEQA Guidelines §15163 are met. Pursuant to Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines, a Subsequent EIR or Negative Declaration may only be prepared if: (a) When an EIR has been certified or a n egative declaration adopted for a project, no subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project unless the lead age ncy determines, on the basis of sub stantial evidence in the light of the whole record, one or more of the following: (1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of th e previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvem ent of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is u ndertaken which w ill require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due to th e involvement of new significant en vironmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or (3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the t ime the previous EIR was certified as complete or the negative de claration was adopted, shows any of the following: 1.0-2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Introduction 1.0 (A) The project will h ave one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous El R or n egative declaration; (8) Significant effects previou sly examined will be substantially more se vere than shown in the previou s EIR; (C) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or mo re significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or (D) Mitigation measures or a lternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative. (b) If changes to a p roject or its ci rcumstances occur o r new information becomes availa ble after adoption of a negative declaration, the lead agency shall prep are a sub sequent EIR if required under subdivision (a). Otherwise the lead agency shall determine whether to prepa re a subsequent negative declaration, an addendum, or no further documentation. (c) Once a project has been approved, the lead agency's role in project approval is completed, unless further discretionary approval on that project is required. Information appearing after an approval does not require reopening of that approval. If after the proj ect is approved, any of the conditions described in subdivision (a) occurs, a subsequent EIR or negative declaration shall only be prepared by the public agency which grants the next discretionary approval for the project, if any. In this si tuation no other responsible agency shall grant an approval for the project until the subsequent EIR has been certified or subsequent negative declaration adopted. (d) A subsequent EIR or subsequent negative declaration shall be given the same notice and public review as required under Section 15087 or Section 15072. A subse quent EIR or negative declaration shall state where the previou s document is available and can be reviewed. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15163: (a) The Lead or Responsible Agency may choose to p repare a Supplement to an EIR rather than a Subsequent EIR if. (1) any of the c onditions described in Section 1 5162 would require the preparation of a Subsequent EIR, and 1 (2) only minor additions or changes would be necessary to make the previous EIR ad equately apply to the proje ct in the changed situation. A Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 1.0-3 1.0 Introduction (b) The supplement to the EIR need co ntain only the informatio n necessary to make the previou s EIR adequate for the project as revised. (c) A supplement to an EIR shall be given th e same kind of notice an d public review as is given the draft EIR under Section 15087. (d) A supplement to an EIR may be circulated by itself without recirculating the previous draft or final EIR. (e) When the agency decides whether to approve the project, the decision-making body shall consider the previous EIR as revised by the supplemental EIR. A finding under Section 15091 shall be made for each significant effect shown in the previous EIR as revised. Therefore, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15163, the City, as the Lead Agency, has prepared this Supplement to the previously certified Gen eral Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Program Environmental Impact Report. This EIR serve s as an information document for use b y public agencies, the general public, and decision makers. This EIR is not a C ity of Vernon policy docu ment.

Organization of this EIR This EIR i s organized into nin a sections. Section 1.0 is th is Introduction. The Executive Summary, provided in Section 2.0 includes a brief project description and summarizes project impacts and mitigation measures. Sect ion 3.0 provides a detailed description of the pro posed focused Gene ral Plan a nd Zoning Ordinance update. Sections 4. 0 analyzes project im pacts and identifies mitigation measures designed to reduce significant impacts. Sect ion 5.0 p rovides analysis of alternatives to the p roposed project. An analysis of cumulative impacts, growth- inducing impacts, e nergy conservation, and significant irreversible environmental impacts are analyzed in S ection 6.0. Effects found not to be significant are provided in Section 7.0. Section 8.0 lists the preparation team and Section 9.0 provides a list of persons and organizations consulted during the preparation of this Supplemental EIR. The Appendices consist of Appendix A: Notice of Preparation/Initial Study, Appendix B: Air Quality Data, and Appendix C: Traffic Impact Analysis, included as supporting information to the EIR. Inco mpliance with Public Resources Section 21081.6, a mitigation monitoring and reporting program will be prepared as a separately bound document that will be adopted in conjunction with the certification of the Final EIR and project approval. Approach to EIR Analysis As stated above, the approach to the analysis presented in this EIR is programmatic in nature given the broad scope of the General Plan update and Zoning Ordinance revision. Each environmental issue is analyzed in the same manner, starting with a discussion of the existing environmental setting. Thresholds of significance are then defined, as they are used to measure the project's potential impact in the Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 1.0-7 1.0 Introduction environmental impact section. The analysis section summarizes the environmental effects over time resulting from implementation of the goals and policies contained in each of the updated General Plan elements as analyzed in the certified Program EIR. The analysis section then examines the environmental effects over time resulting from the implementation of the proposed expanded Commercial Overlay C-1 and C-2 zones and the proposed Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone. If the analysis indicates that implementation of the proposed Overlay Zones will result in a significant impa ct not identified in the certifie d Program EIR for a particular environmental issue, mitigation measures are included. For the G eneral Plan update analyzed in the certified Program EIR, most o f the mitigation measures were d rawn from the updated General Plan Implementation Plan. As part of the certified General Plan update, the City pre pared a detailed Implementation Plan that outlines procedures, programs, or approaches the City will pursue over time - either alone or in collaboration with non-City organizations or state and federal agencies - to imple ment the updated G eneral Plan goals and policies. Some of the implem entation measures are processes or pro cedures the City currently performs on a day-to-day basis (such as development project review), while others identify new programs or projects that will be implemented within specified time frames. By identifying a responsible party, a timeline for implementation, and a monitoring frequency, the Implementation Plan provides a mechanism for a nsuring that potential impacts resulting from long-term implementation of the Genera I Plan upd ate and Zoning Ordinance revision were avoided or reduced. Not all im plementation measures were included in the certified Program EIR as mitigation measures. The EI R identified only tho se required to avoid or reduce significant impacts. Mitigation measures and the Implementation Plan included as part of the certified Program EIR are applicable to the proposed focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update analyzed in this Supplemental EIR. For each environmental issue area a xamined in Section 4.0, the discussion concludes with a statement regarding the level of impact remaining with imposition of the mitigation measures. ad 1.0-8 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Introduction 1 Executive Summary 2 Project Description 3 Environmental Impact Analysis 4 Alternatives 5 Analysis of Long Term Effects 6 Effects Found Not to be Significant 7 Preparation Team $ References 9 2 Executive Summary Project Summary 2. 1 The project analyzed in this SEIR is the adoption and implementation of the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update. The proposed project is a focused update to the General Plan to comply with new State laws and make minor adjustments to land use policy. The Plan as a whole applies to the incorporated limits of Vernon. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update The intent of the project with respect to each of the elements is summarized below. Update to General Plan Elements Land Use Element The City of Vernon is an exclusively in dustrial city with one land use category, Industrial, and three overlay districts: Commercial, Rendering, and Slaughterin g. The project proposes to expand the area that the Commercial Overlay applies and proposes new information an d policies to facilitate more in tensive employment- generating uses nea r transit stops. In addition, additional information on flood hazards is provided to comply with State law (AB 162). Safety Element Recent revisions to AB 162 requiring flood risk management information to be included in the Safety Element are propo sed. Revisions to earthquake fault map s to update information provided by the California Geological Survey are proposed. Resources Element Limited changes to the Resources Element related to recently updated Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) information are propo sed. In addition, the project proposes revisions to address AB 32, the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 and SB 375. Noise Element Limited changes to the Noise Element to reflect the City's recently adopted housing policy is proposed. Implementation Plan In order to correlate with new policies in the General Plan, a limited num ber of new actions to the Implementation Plan are proposed. In addition, due to the loss of redevelopment funding in the in State, changes to funding sources are proposed. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 2.0-1 2.0 Executive Summary Project Location 2.2 The City of Vernon is located in the central portion of Los Angeles County, directly south of downtown Los Angeles. Vernon is adjacent to the cities of Los Angeles, Huntington Park, Maywood, Bell, and Commerce. The municipal limits of the City of Vernon encompass approximately 5.2 square mile s, extending ge nerally from Alameda Street and the Alameda Corridor on the west to Interstate 710 (I-710) on the east, and the cities of Maywood and Huntington Park to the south to the City of Los Angeles to the north. Lands within the municipal limits la rgely have been developed with industrial uses since its incorporation in 1905. Environmental Setting 2.3 The Project Area is located in central Los Angeles County. The top ography is relatively flat and is largely built out with almost exclusively industrial use, with limited retail, commercial, and food service options to support the large day-time business population and few residents. Environmental Impacts 2.4 Based on the prelim inary environmental analysis conducted, the City determ ined that the adoption and long-te rm implementation of the updated Genera I Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance has the potential to resu It in significant en vironmental effects with regard to the following environmental issue areas: • Air Quality • Hazards and Hazardous Materials • Noise • Transportation and Traffic • Utilities and Service Systems (water supply and solid waste) This Supplemental EIR examines each of these issue areas in separate sections, in addition to other required topics specified in the State CEQA Guidelines. Table 2.0- 2 summarizes the environmental impacts associated with the project and lists the mitigation measures required to reduce or avoid impacts as stated in the certified General Plan EIR an d remain applicable to the p roposed General Plan update. Mitigation beyond that required by the certified General Plan EIR is not necessary. 2.0-2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Executive Summary 2.0 Table 2.0-2 Environmental Impact Summary Impact Summary (The numbers in the first column refer to the EIR sections where specific impact topics are addressed. The letters refer to the thresholds identified in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines.) Significant and Unavoidable Impacts Transportation and Traffic 4.4.A Projected long-term traffic volumes result in significant and unavoidable impacts to the local and regional 4.4.B (Congestion Management Program) circulation system with incorporation of mitigation. Mitigation Measures T-1 Automated Traffic Surveillance and Control System (ATSAC). Conduct a study to determine if ATSAC would be a beneficial and cost-effective system for the City to operate and maintain. T-2 Coordinate with Adjacent Jurisdictions. Continue to coordinate intersection maintenance and improvements with adjacent jurisdictions so that intersections along Soto Street, Pacific Boulevard, Slauson Avenue, Alameda Street, Atlantic Boulevard, Bandini Boulevard, and Downey Road operate at an acceptable Level of Service. T-3 Coordinate with Rail Companies. Coordinate with railroad companies in removing obsolete rail spurs. Work to minimize traffic impacts to City streets from trucks using Hobart Yard facilities and other multi-modal transportation yards. T-4 Coordinate with Metropolitan Transportation Authority. Work with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) to achieve the following: - Implement the Metro's Congestion Management Plan (CMP) within the City. - Continue to provide local and regional connections through Metro local and rapid bus lines. - Improve access to local Metro stations. T-5 Minimize Parking Impacts. Work with businesses to develop creative strategies and solutions to address parking shortages. Require new development projects to meet the minimum parking standards in the Zoning Ordinance for both trucks and automobile and automobiles, including truck trailer storage, employee parking, and visitor parking. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 2.0-3 2.0 Executive Summary T-6 Soto Street Widening. At the time properties along Soto Street are redeveloped or as otherwise dictated by City plans for the widening of Soto Street, require the dedication of rights-of-way to achieve the road standard for Soto Street established in the Circulation and Infrastructure Element. Complete the road widening project at the time adequate rights-of-way have been acquired and/or dedicated. T-7 Interstate 710 Freeway Improvements. Work with Caltrans on all plans, activities, and projects regarding Interstate 710 that may directly impact Vernon's roadway facilities and traffic patterns. Coordinate with the Gateway Cities Council of Governments and Southern California Association of Governments on studies and programs regarding the improvements to the I-710 freeway. T-8 Other Improvements. At Santa Fe Avenue and 381" Street, stripe an eastbound left-turn lane within existing right-of-way to provide additional intersection capacity. Less than Significant Impacts with Mitigation Incorporation Hazards and Hazardous Materials 4.2.A Implementation of the proposed focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update will result in less than 4.2.B significant impacts from the use, transport, and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes with mitigation 4.2.0 incorporation. Mitigation Measures H-1 The City will continue to im plement the provisions of C ity ordinances to pro vide for th e business occupancy inspection program and the regular inspection of businesses involved in the production, storage, handling, disposal, treatment, emissions, discharge, or recycling of hazardous ma terials. Such activity will be funded as part of the City's annual budgeting process, special tax, and/or will be funded as a fee program. H-2 At the tim e any new or revi sed Hazardous Materials Business application for a new business or activity is r eceived for a location within one-quarter mile of any residence, school, hospital, residential assisted care facility, or simi lar use ( sensitive uses may be located within the City o r outside its boundaries), or greater distance as may be determined by the Director of Environmental Health Department for particular business types, the City will review th e application and determine whether a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) is required pursuant to State law and/or City Ordinance 961 to address any potential impacts to these uses. If an HRA is deemed appropriate and further, if the 2.0-4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Executive Summary 2.0 HRA identifies potential risks asso ciated with the business activity r elative to proximity to th e residence, school, hospital, residential assisted care facility or similar use, the City shall ensure that action is taken to address such risk. The action may consist of: - Denying the application within the limits of the Code of the City of Vernon, or - Requiring the business operator to incorporate preventative or ameliorative measures into the business processes or activities to lower the risk to acceptable levels, as set forth by federal or state regulations and policies. Noise 4.3.A Impacts will be less than significant at the program level with implementation of mitigation, General Plan policies, and regulatory requirements. Mitigation Measures N-1 Noise Regulations. Continue to enforce City noise regulations contained in the Zoning Ordinance to protect residents and school children from excessive noise levels associated with stationary noise sources. Periodically evaluate regulations for adequacy and revise, as needed, to address community needs and changes in legislation and technology. N-2 Siting of New Businesses and Activities near Sensitive Land Uses. Review all development proposals and building permits within the City to determine whether the prop osed use has the potential to exceed City one-hour noise standards. The City's standards are lower at locations near existing residences and schools. As appropriate, require acoustical analyses for all such development and activities near such uses, and determine if mitigation measures are required . Require property and business owners to implement mitigation to achieve City noise standards. No Impact and Less than Significant Impacts Air Quality and Climate Change 4.1.A Impacts related to short-term and long-term criteria pollutant emissions at th e programmatic level will be 4.1.B less than significant with implementation of existing General Plan policy, and existing standards. 4.1.0 4.1.D Impacts related to the exposure of sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations and greenhouse gases will be less than significant at the programmatic level. Hazards and Hazardous Materials 4.8.D Impacts to development and persons due to building siting on contaminated p roperties will be less than significant. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 2.0-5 2.0 Executive Summary Utilities and Service Systems 4.5.A Implementation of the proposed project will not require new or expanded water supply entitlements to be secured. 4.5.B Impacts associated with solid waste regulations and adequacy of disposal sites will be less than significant. 2.0-6 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Executive Summary 2.0 2.5 Issues to be Resolved Pursuant to Section 15123(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, an EIR summary m ust identify "Issues to be resolved including the choice among alternatives and whether or how to mitigate the significant effe cts." This EIR identifies and resolves issues related to project alternat ives in Secti on 5. Pote ntially significant impacts are identified in the analysis pro vided in Section 4 and mitigation is considered for all impacts. 2.6 Areas of Potential Controversy A Notice of Pre partition (NOP) of a Draft Supp lemental Environmental Impact Report was circulated for a 30-day pub lic review period from September 13, 2012 through October 15, 2012. Responses to the circulation of the NOP identified a variety of environm ental concerns related to air qualit y, transportation, and rail safety (see Appendix A). These areas of potential controversy are examined in this EIR. 2.7 Alternatives to the Proposed Project CEQA requires that an EIR examine alternatives to the project that are capable of reducing or eliminating the un avoidable significant effects. Four alternatives were considered. The alternatives examined in Section 5.0 are: • Alternative 1: No Project • Alternative 2: Additional Railway/Roadway Grade Separations • Alternative 3: Zoning Provisions to Permit Warehousing Citywide • Alternative 4: No Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Alternative 3 was examined as part of the certified General Plan EIR; however it is no longer applicable, and has not been examined further . The alternati ves analysis indicates that Alternative 1 will result in equivalent impacts when compared to the proposed project, Alternative 2 will generally result in reduced impacts related to air quality, ha zards, and traffic and equivalent impacts related to water supply, landfill capacity, and noise when compared to the proposed project. Alternative 4 will result in generally reduced impacts related to air quality, traffic, water supply, landfill capacity, and noise and equivalent impacts related to hazards when compared to the proposed project. Alternative 1 was found to be the environmentally superior alternative to the proposed project.

Zoning Ordinance in 2007. A Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) wa s� prepared at the time and certified by the Vernon City Council in November 2007. In January 2013, the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance were again a mended to update the City's Housing Element for the 2014-2021 period and add the Housin g and Emergency Shelter Overlays to the land use policy map and zoning map. A,� —L Mitigated Negative Declaration was adopted for the housing-related amendments:-, u . Supplemental Environmental Impact Report - 3.0 Project Description The entirety of the 2,755-acre Planning Area is designated and zoned Industrial (I). Variations in land uses are supported through a series of overlays. Currently, the General Plan and Zoning Code identifies five overlay districts. The C ommercial Overlay District (C) encompasses 210 acres an d supports retail, commercial service, and restaurant uses. The Rendering Overlay District (R) encompasses 134 acres and supports rendering (the processing of animal products into useful, value- added materials) on lots over one acre in size. The Slaughtering Overlay District (S) encompasses 69 acres and supports the slaughtering of animals on lots over one acre in size. The Housing Overla y District (H) supp orts development of residential units on approximately two acres in the eastern portion of the Planning Area. The Emerge ncy Shelter Overlay District (ES) sup ports development of emergency shelters on approximately 1. 61 acres in the northwest portion of the Planning Area. Project Description The proposed project is a focused update to the General Plan to comply with new State laws and make minor adjustments to land use policy. The project consists of several components: • Update the Land Use Element to expand the locations where commercial uses and trucking and freight terminals can be established in the City. • Update the Land Use, Resources, Safe ty, and Noise Elements to com ply with recently passed State laws and to update pertinent information. • Update the Implementation Plan with new applicable policies related to th e above revised policy changes. • Revise the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map to establish and apply a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay (TF) over 1,065 net acres. • Revise the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map to replace and expand the existing Commercial Overlay with the new C-1 and C-2 Commercial Overlays over 281 net acres and 177 net acres, respectively. • Establish new definitions to address the revisions described above an d other minor amendments to the Zoning Ordinance. • Establish a new Minor Conditional Use Permit process. • Provide standards for digital billboards. • Perform additional clean-up, non-substantive revisions to the Zoning Ordinance that do not affect the any prior policy directives. Each of th ese components is discussed in detail b elow. For the purposes of this Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (EI R), the focused up date to the Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinanc e is collectively referred to as "th e project" and "the Proposed Focused Update." The "Planning Area" is the area to which the project applies; this includes all parcels within the City of Vernon and its unincorporated sphere of influence. 3.0-2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Project Description 3.0 Update to General Plan Elements Land Use Element The Land Use Eleme nt guides the physical form o f Vernon and how land will b e used over the long term (see Exhibit 3.0-2, Proposed General Plan Land Use Map). This element sets forth the location, type, and intensity uses, and also establishes the desired mix and relationship between uses. Land use designations identify the types and nature o f development permitted throughout the planning area. The goals and policies contained in the Land Use E lement provide the foundation for maintaining Vernon as a regional manufacturing and industrial center while allowing for some commercial uses and public facilities. In recognition of Vernon's unique status as an exclusively industrial city, the 2007 General Plan established a single land use category (Industrial) and three overlay districts: Commercial, Rendering, and Slaughtering. The Project proposes to expand the area that the Commercia I Overlay applies. New inform ation and policies are proposed to facilitate expansion of co mmercial uses, new truck an d freight terminals, and to promote more intensive employment-generating uses near transit stops. Additional information on flood hazards is provided to comply with State law (AB 162, discussed below). Figure 3.0-1 (Land Use and Zoning Summary) summarizes the area of each designation and zone of the proposed Land Use Policy Map and Zoning Map (note that some overlay districts overlap).

The element includes a discussion of those features within Supplemental Environmental Impact Report -3 3.0 Project Description or near the planning area that represent a potential danger to buildings/structures, public facilities, and infrastructure. The element establishes goals, policies, and plans to minimize dangers to residents, workers, and vi sitors associated with seismic hazards, flooding, and hazardous materials. The Safety Element has been updated to comply with AB 162, enacted in 2007 and effective in 2009. AB 162 revised multiple sections of the Go vernment Code and requires flood risk management information to be included in the Safety Element. As part of this u pdate, flood data from new Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood maps was added to the Safety Element. Revisions were also made to earthquake fault maps to update information provid ed by the California Geological Survey. The existing Safety Element goals will remain the same. Resources Element The Resources Element contains goals and policies that encourage conservation and management of both cultural and natural resources including water resources, open space, energy resources, air quality, and historic buildings and sites. The Project involves limited changes to the Resources Element. Specifically, information related to the Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) applicable to the City is updated to reflect information in the most recently adopted UWMP (2010). Additionally, information and a policy are added to addre ss AB 32, the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 and SB 375 (2008). Both laws require consultation with regional governmental groups to coordinate land u se, circulation, an d infrastructure planning. The existing Resources Element goals will remain the same. Noise Element The Noise Element focuses on minimizing community noise by id entifying its sources and assessing alte rnative methods to reduce impacts. The elemen t establishes policies to abate noise and reduce the detrim ental health effe cts associated with excessive noise levels. The element identifies noise standards and land use compatibility guidelines to be used in the assessment of development proposals to protect noise-sensitive land uses from excessive noise. The Project proposes limited changes to the No ise Element to reflect the City's recently adopted housing policy to permit housing and emergency shelters in two identified locations in the City, includ ing a new policy to require new residential development to utilize con struction approaches that minimize adverse noise and vibration effects on residents. All other Noise Element goals remain the same. Implementation Plan The General Plan includes a comprehensive Implementation Plan th at provides direction for translating goals and policies to specific actions. The Implementation Plan serves as a ba sis for making future programming decisions related to the assignment of staff and the expenditure of City funds. The Implementation Plan identifies individual program responsibility, funding sources, and a timefra me for completion. 3.0-4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Project Description 3.0 A limited number of new actions were added to the Im plementation Plan to correlate with new policies in the General Plan and funding sources were revised to reflect the loss of redevelopment funding throughout the state. Update to Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map Updates to the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map (see Exhibit 3.0-3, Proposed Zoning Map) are largely intended to achieve consistency between the revisions proposed in the Focused General Plan update and the Zoning Ordinance. Revisions include expansion of the Commercial O verlay area and establishment of the C-1 and C-2 commercial overlays, establishment of a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay District to permit and provide for development standards for these uses in certain areas of th e City, allow for streamlined review of certain types o f development projects through a new Minor Conditional Use Permit process, provide standards for digital billboards; and min or, non-substantive changes to clean-up language in the Ordinance to facilitate its interpretation. Commercial Overlay Expansion The City prepared revisions to the Zoning Ordinance to achieve consistency with the General Plan Land U se Map and policies related to commercial uses of property. These changes are reflected in the proposed amendments to the Zoning Ordinance with the establishment of two separate commercial overlays: • The C-1 Overlay Zone encompasses 282 acres and id entifies areas for th e development of mercantile facilities including commercial, service, and business operations that are necessary to support industrial uses at locations where such commercial, service, and business op erations would serve existing on-site businesses and surrounding uses by improving access to a greater range of facilities and services. • The C-2 Overlay Zone encompasses 171 acres and is designed to accommodate, in limited and specific areas of the City, those uses that may ordinarily conflict with the industrial character of the City. The C-2 Overlay Zone is inte nded to provide for areas for commercial retail facilities at a higher level of intensity than those permitted in the C-1 Overlay Zone. Freight Terminal Overlay Zoning District The City proposes to establish a new Truck and Freight Terminal Zoning Overlay District (TF) in a portion o f the City as represented in Exhibit 3. Developm ent standards, including site planning standards and allowable uses, are included in the Zoning Ordinance amendments. Under ex isting standards, truck an d freight terminals were considered legal nonconforming uses and new uses were no t permitted. With the proposed amendment, however, new such uses would be permitted subject to development standards and issuance of a Conditional Use Permit and only within the new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay District. Streamline Administrative Review Process The project includes the addition of a Min or Conditional Use Permit process to the L' Zoning Ordinance. The purpose of a Minor Conditional Use Permit is to allow for the Supplemental Environmental Impact Report -5 3.0 Project Description proper integration of uses into the co mmunity which may only b e suitable in specific locations or designed and constructe d in a particu lar manner or and er certain conditions, but are of a scale that would be less impactful than those that may be permitted with a Conditional Use Permit. The Minor Conditional Use Permit would be reviewed and approved or denied by the Director of Community Services, and would be applicable to certain co mmercial uses, incidental uses, and ancillary retail uses, as specified in the Zoning Ordinance. Digital Billboards The project includes establishment o f development standards and definitions related to the regu lation of digital billboards for which the existin g Zoning Ordinance is silent. City standards comport with standards and guidelines of the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) for digital billboards within 660 feet of a freeway right-of-way. Definitions and Clean Up Items Section 26.2.3, Definitions, of the Zon ing Ordinance is proposed to be updated to increase clarity in interpre tation and implem ent the above policy changes. A number of definitions are propose d to be added or mod ified, including the definitions of canopy, cell tower, community facility, contractor's yard, floor-area ratio, freight terminal, garag e, hazardous waste facility, inciden tal use, powe r generating facility, public utility, retail use, slaughtering, truck terminal, an d warehouse use, among others. The Zoning Ordinance is p roposed to b e updated with the following additional changes: • Additional uses permitted by right added and uses permitted with a Conditional Use Permit or Minor Conditional Use Permit added or revised • Buffer requirements for acutely hazardous materials within 500 feet of a school added • Screening of outdoor storage activities modified • Clarifications on water usage requirements for Conditional Use Permits added • Performance measures for noxious odors added • Clarifications on required number of parking by use, parking access, and street dedication • Extension of amortization of nonconforming outdoor activities and storage to 2015 • Other minor clarification and typographical changes Project Objectives This Project is being pursued so that the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance are consistent with State law and con sistent with each other, and to pro vide standards and Zoning District Overlays for uses that were not previously addressed, or addressed to a lesser detail, in the existing Zoning Ordinance. 3.0-6 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Project Description 3.0 Other objectives of the General Plan re main unchanged. Specifically, the City' s intent is to continu e to support the ongo ing industrial character of the City while recognizing the changing industrial environment throughout the United States and globally, and to respond appropriately. The Vernon General Plan is intended to achieve the following objectives: • To allow Vernon to remain an exclusively industrial city that serves the needs of industry, including the manufacture of goods for to cal, national, and international consumers. • To provide a bala nced transportation system for the safe and efficient movement of people, goods, and emergency services throughout the City. • To maintain and improve the City's infrastructure services to meet the needs of industry. • To minimize the risk to pub lic health, safety, and welfare associated with the presence of natural and human-caused hazards. • To conserve and protect the City's natural resources including water, energy, open space, and air quality. Surrounding Land Uses The project applies to all parcels within the City of Vernon and its unincorporated sphere of influence. Vernon is adjacen t to the citie s of Los Angeles, Hu ntington Park, Maywood, and Comme rce. Sur rounding uses in these cities include residential, commercial, and industrial uses. With regard to proposed General Plan land use changes and related consistency Zoning Map changes, the project would expand the Commercial Overlay District. The Commercial Overlay District would be comprised of two separate commercial overlays: C-1 and C-2. The C-2 Commercial Overlay District would constitute the expansion area, and is proposed to include additional parcels along Soto Street, as well as properties on Slauson Avenue and Atlantic Boulevard. Surrounding uses are generally industrial in na ture, with a limited number of commercial uses. Additionally, the potential expansion of the Commercial Overlay District would be adjacent to Maywood Elementary School, located in the adjacent City of Maywood. The Zoning Map has an additional pro posed amendment: the Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay District. This overla y would app ly to a northern por tion of th e City, as indicated in Exhibit 3.0-3 (Proposed Zoning Map). Surrounding uses are general industrial in nature, as well as rail yards and rail lines. The Los Angeles River borders much of this proposed Overlay District. Environmental Settings The City of Vernon is located in the central portion of Los Angeles County, directly southeast of downt own Los Angele s. Vernon i s adjacent to the ci ties of Los Angeles, Huntington Park, Maywood, and Commerce. Vernon is connected to th e regional rail lines via the Alameda Corridor, which is the primary connection between the ports o f Los Angeles and Long Beach and the rail yards located in� Vernon, Commerce, and downtown Los Angeles. A portion o f the Hobart Yard, an v L. . Supplemental Environmental Impact Report J00-7 3.0 Project Description intermodal facility where large shipping containers are transferred from railroad cars to trucks and vice versa, is also located in Vernon. The corporate limits of the C ity of Vernon encompass approximately 5.2 square miles, extending generally from Alameda Street and the Alameda Corridor on th e west to the I-710 freeway to the east, and from the cities o f Maywood and Huntington Park on the south and the cities of Los Angeles and Commerce to the north. A portion of unincorporated Los An geles County is located in the planning area that includes primarily industrial uses and portions o f the Los Angeles River. Lands within Vern on largely have been developed with industrial uses sin ce incorporation in 1905. Close t o 50,000 employees commute into Vernon daily to work in the 1,200 manufacturing, wareho using, industrial, and tra nsportation- related businesses. As of 2010, Vernon had only 31 residences and a population of 112 persons. Required Approvals • The City Council must approve a General Plan Amendment that incorporates the focused updates into the current General Plan, including an amendment to the Land Use Map to expand the Commercial Overlay. • The City Council must approve a Zone Ordinance Text Amendment to create and implement the Truck and Fre fight Terminal Overlay, expand the Commercial Overlay, and incorporate other focused amendments, as itemized above, to facilitate implementation and ease interpretation of the Zoning Ordinance. • The City Council must approve a Zoning Map Amendment to apply the Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay and expansion of the Co mmercial Overlay (including both C-1 and C-2 overlays) to the Zoning Map. Other Public Agencies Whose Approval Is Required None Approach The environmental analysis contained in this Supplemental Program EIR is based on the following assumptions: Project Specific Environmental Review: In the C ity of Vernon, all development proposals that are conside red "projects" under CEQA are sub jest to the environmental review process to de termine the level of impact an d to impo se appropriate mitigation measures, if needed, to avoid significant impacts. Purpose and Focus of this Su pplemental EIR for the Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Environmental Review: This project would not auth orize any plans for construction of new uses, or redevelopment of any properties to produce new uses. The proposed project is an update to existing policy documents. No other direct environmental impacts would occur. The purpose of the environmental assessment is to identify changes to the General Plan and Zoning Ordinances and the associated changes to the previously certified EIR needed to make the previous EIR adequately apply to the project as revised (CEQA Guidelines Section 15163). 3.0-8 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update YY BQ t Mont verno NEly r 1-1011tingion Park Inglewood South Gate Downey El S"undo 10Lynwood Gardeno Compton Carson r a✓ 91 i��a► � E 24th 5Y_' Lugb St ,S� -•�E 14fh,Sfyr a 1 pion Pacific Avy i' d .. »'-" ,� '♦ ['r.�a.,.

The Initial Study (Appendix A) indicated that there will be no impacts relative to objectionable odors. Environmental Setting Vernon lies within the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB), a 6,600-square-mile coastal plain bounded by the Pacific Ocean to the west and the San Gabriel, San Bernardino, and San Jacinto mountains to the north and east. The SCAB includes all of Orange County and the non-desert portions of Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties. The SCAB is a non-attainment area for federal standards for carbon monoxide (CO). The SCAB is also a non-attainment area for federal and state air quality standards for ozone (03), particulate matter less than 10 microns in diameter (PMlo) and particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM2.5)- Climate and Meteorological Conditions Area climatological conditions are characterized by warm summers, mild winters, infrequent rainfall, moderate onshore daytime breezes, and moderate humidity. All seasons generally exhibit onshore wind flows during the day and offshore flows at night, after the land cools below the temperature of the ocean. The likelihood of strong offshore flows, including Santa Ana winds, is greater during winter than during summer. (California Air Resources Board, 1984) The topography and climate of Southern California combine to produce unhealthful air quality within the SCAB. Low temperature inversion, light winds, shallow vertical mixing, and extensive sunlight, in conjunction with topographical features such as adjacent mountain ranges that hinder dispersion of air pollutants, combine to create degraded air quality, especially in inland valleys of the basin. Existing Air Quality Conditions Air quality is determined primarily by the type and amount of contaminants emitted into the atmosphere, the size and topography of a basin, and a basin's meteorological conditions. Atmospheric conditions such as wind speed, wind direction, and air temperature gradients, along with local topography, provide the link between air pollution emissions and air quality. The Program Environmental Impact Report discussed air quality standards, regulations, and pollutant concentrations. The SCAQMD regulates air quality improvement programs within the SCAB and works to improve regional air quality to achieve federal and state standards. The monitoring stations record concentrations of various pollutants including: 03, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), PM10, particulate matter less than 2.5 microns Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-1 4.1 Air Quality in diameter (PM2.5), lead (Pb), and sulfates (SO4). An updated Table 4.1-1 summarizes the state and federal standards and sources of criteria pollutants as of 2012. Air pollution levels are measured at monitoring stations located throughout the Basin. Areas that are in nonattainment with respect to criteria pollutants are required to prepare plans and implement measures that will bring the region into attainment. Table 4.1-2 (South Coast Air Basin Attainment Status) summarizes the attainment status in the Basin for the criteria pollutants. The Basin is currently in nonattainment status for ozone and inhalable and fine particulate matter. Pollution problems in the Basin are caused by emissions within the area and the specific meteorology that promotes pollutant concentrations. Emissions sources vary widely from smaller sources such as individual residential water heaters and short-term grading activities to extensive operational sources including long-term operation of electrical power plants and other intense industrial use. Pollutants in the Basin are blown inward from coastal areas by sea breezes from the Pacific Ocean and are prevented from horizontally dispersing due to the surrounding mountains. This is further complicated by atmospheric temperature inversions that create inversion layers. The inversion layer in Southern California refers to the warm layer of air that lies over the cooler air from the Pacific Ocean. This is strongest in the summer and prevents ozone and other pollutants from dispersing upward. A ground-level surface inversion commonly occurs during winter nights and traps carbon monoxide emitted during the morning rush hour. Measurements taken by SCAQMD at the Central Los Angeles monitoring station from 2001 to 2005 were summarized in the certified Program EIR. Table 4.1-3 summarizes measurements taken from 2006 to 2012 and shows that air quality standards at these locations have been exceeded for PM2.5, PM10, and 03. This is consistent with the entire SCAB's classification as non-attainment for PMlo and 03. The following summary of pollutants was provided in the Program EIR with updated information on exceedance of standards for Ozone. All other pollutants Ozone (03). The most pervasive air quality problem in the Basin is high ozone concentrations. Ozone is the principal component of smog and is formed in the atmosphere through a complex series of photochemical reactions involving volatile organic compounds (VOC) and nitrogen oxides (NOX), which are commonly referred to as precursors of 03 and are both considered critical in 03 formation; NOX includes various combinations of nitrogen and oxygen, including NO, NO2, NO3, etc. Significant 03 production generally requires about three hours in a stable atmosphere with strong sunlight. Ozone is a regional air pollutant because it is transported and diffused by wind concurrent with the photochemical reaction process. Motor vehicles are the major source of ozone precursors in the air basin. During late spring, summer, and early fall, light winds, low mixing heights, and abundant sunshine combine to produce conditions favorable for maximum production of 03. Ozone causes eye and respiratory irritation, reduces resistance to lung infection, and may aggravate pulmonary conditions in persons with lung disease. Ozone is also damaging to vegetation and untreated rubber. Control 4.1-2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 strategies for 03 have focused on reducing emissions from vehicles, industrial processes using solvents and coatings, and consumer products. In each of the five latest years for which air quality data exists (2006-2012), the state 1-hour ozone standard was exceeded in Central Los Angeles for as many as eight days (see Table 4.1-4). In 1997, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) issued a new standard for 03, using an 8-hour average. After years of litigation, the standard was approved and attainment designations were made. Los Angeles County is in nonattainment for both the state and federal standards; federal standards were exceeded at the Central Los Angeles monitoring station for a total of five days between 2001 and 2005, with the most in one year being two days in 2003. In June of 2005, the federal 1-hour 03 standard was revoked by the USEPA. Carbon Monoxide (CO). CO is a colorless and odorless gas which, in the urban environment, is associated primarily with the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels in motor vehicles. Relatively high concentrations are typically found near crowded intersections and along heavily used roadways carrying slow-moving traffic. Even under the most severe meteorological and traffic conditions, high concentrations of CO are limited to locations within a relatively short distance (300 to 600 feet) of heavily traveled roadways. Overall, CO emissions are decreasing as a result of the Federal Motor Vehicle Control Program, which has mandated increasingly lower emission levels for vehicles manufactured since 1973. Concentrations of CO are typically higher in winter. As a result, California has required the use of oxygenated gasoline in the winter months to reduce CO emissions. CO interferes with the transfer of oxygen to the blood. It may cause dizziness and fatigue and can impair central nervous system functions. The 1-hour and 8-hour average CO standards have not been exceeded at the Central Los Angeles Monitoring Station during the last five years (see Table 4.1-4). Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2). There are two oxides of nitrogen that are important in air pollution: nitric oxide (NO) and NO2. NO, along with some NO2, is emitted from motor vehicle engines, power plants, refineries, industrial boilers, ships, aircraft, and railroads. NO2 is primarily formed when NO reacts with atmospheric oxygen in the presence of VOC and sunlight; the other product of this reaction is 03. Nitrogen dioxide is the whiskey-brown colored gas, more commonly known as smog, observed during periods of heavy air pollution. Concentrations of NO2 are highest during the late fall and winter. NO2 increases damage from respiratory disease and irritation, and may reduce resistance to certain infections. Neither the federal nor state standards for NO2 have been exceeded in Central Los Angeles during the last five years (see Table 4.1-4). Particulate Matter (PM). PM is a complex mixture of extremely small particles. and liquid droplets. PM is made up of a number of components, including acids (such as nitrates and sulfates), organic chemicals, metals, and soil or dust particles. ,5 Natural sources of particulates include windblown dust and ocean spray. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report .1-3 4.1 Air Quality The size of PM is directly linked to the potential for causing health problems. The USEPA is concerned about particles that are 10 micrometers in diameter or smaller because those are the particles that generally pass through the throat and nose and enter the lungs. Once inhaled, these particles can affect the heart and lungs and cause serious health effects. Health studies have shown a significant association between exposure to PM and premature death. Other important effects include aggravation of respiratory and cardiovascular disease, lung disease, decreased lung function, asthma attacks, and certain cardiovascular problems such as heart attacks and irregular heart beat (USEPA 2006). Individuals particularly sensitive to fine particle exposure include older adults, people with heart and lung disease, and children. The USEPA groups PM into two categories: fine particulate matter and coarse particulate matter. Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5). Fine particles, such as those found in smoke and haze, are 2.5 micrometers in diameter and smaller. Sources of fine particles include all types of combustion activities (motor vehicles, power plants, wood burning, etc.) and certain industrial processes. PM2.5 is the major cause of reduced visibility (haze) in California. Ammonium nitrates and ammonium sulfates represent a dominant fraction of PM2.5 components and are formed in the atmosphere thorough secondary reactions of precursor emissions of NOX, SOX and ammonia. Reducing the sulfur content of fuels has proven to be an effective measure of control for SOX reductions, and thereby PM2.5. Control of PM2.5 is primarily achieved through the regulation of emission sources, such as the USEPA's Clean Air Interstate Rule and Clean Air Visibility Rule for stationary sources, and the 2004 Clean Air Non-road Diesel Rule, the Tier 2 Vehicle Emission Standards, and Gasoline Sulfur Program; or the California Air Resources Board (CARB) Goods Movement reduction plan. Coarse Particulate Matter (PM10). Inhalable coarse particles, such as those found near roadways and dusty industries, are larger than 2.5 micrometers and smaller than 10 micrometers in diameter. Sources of coarse particles include crushing or grinding operations and dust from paved or unpaved roads. The health effects of PM10 are similar to PM2.5. Control of PM10 is primarily achieved through the control of dust at construction and industrial sites, the cleaning of paved roads, and the wetting or paving of frequently used unpaved roads. Sulfur Dioxide (S02). S02 is a combustion product, with the primary source being power plants and heavy industry that use coal or oil as fuel. S02 is also a product of diesel engine combustion. The health effects of S02 include lung disease and breathing problems for asthmatics. S02 in the atmosphere contributes to the formation of acid rain. In the SCAB, there is relatively little use of coal and oil, and S02 is of lesser concern than in many other parts of the country. The federal and state standards for S02 have not been exceeded in the last five years at the Central Los Angeles Monitoring Station (see Table 4.1-4). 4.1-4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 Table 4.1-1 National and California Ambient Air Quality Standards Pollutant Averaging California Standardsl Federal Standards2 Time Concentration3 Method' Primaryls Secontary3.6 Method' 1 Hour 0.09 ppm - Same as Ozone(03) 180 p /m3 Ultraviolet Photometry Primary Ultraviolet Photometry 8 Hour 0.07 ppm 0.075 ppm Standard 137 /m3 147 /m3 Respirable 24 Hour 50 pg/m3 150 pg/m3 Same as Particulate Gravimetric or Beta Primary Inertial Separation and Matter(PMlo) Annual 3 Attenuation Standard Gravimetric Analysis Arithmetic Mean 20 pg/m Fine 24 Hour No Separate State Standard 35 pg/m3 Same as Inertial Separation and Particulate Annual 12 /m3 Gravimetric or Beta 15 /m3 Primary Gravimetric Analysis Matter(PM2.e) Arithmetic Mean pg Attenuation pg Standard 1 Hour 20 ppm 35 ppm 3 Carbon 23 m /m3 40 m /m None Non-Dispersive Infrared Monoxide 1 Hour 9.0 ppm Non-Dispersive Infrared 9 ppm PhotometryNDIR (CO) 10m /m3 Photometry(NDIR) 10 m /m3 ( ) 8 Hour(Lake 6 ppm Tahoe) (7 m /m3 Annual 0.03 ppm 0.053 ppm Same as Nitrogen Arithmetic Mean (57 pg/m3) Gas Phase (100 pg/m3) Primary Dioxide(NO2) 0.18 ppm Chemiluminescence 100 ppb Standard Gas Phase Chemiluminescence 1 Hour 339 /m3 188 /m3 1 Hour 0.25 ppm 75 ppb 655 /m3 196 /m3 3 Hour 0.5 ppm 1,300 p /m3 Ultraviolet Fluorescence; Sulfur Dioxide 0.14 ppm(for Spectrophotometry SO2 0.04 ppm Ultraviolet Fluorescence Pararosaniline Method ( ) 24 Hour certain(105 pg/m3) ( ) areas o Annual 0.030 ppm Arithmetic Mean (for certain areas)9 30 Day Average 1.5 /m3 1.5 pg/m3(for s Calendar certain Same as High Volume Sampler and Lead Quarter Atomic Absorption areas)" Primary Atomic Absorption Rolling 3-Month 0.15 pg/m3 Standard Average" Visibility Beta Attenuation and Reducing 8 Hour See footnote 12 Transmittance through No Particles Filter Tape Sulfates 24 Hour 25 p /m3 Ion Chromatography Federal Hydrogen 1 Hour 0.03 ppm Ultraviolet Fluorescence Sulfide 42 p /m3 Standards Chl nylle9 24 Hour 261 p/mm Gas Chromatography Source: ARB, June 2012 A PPM, parts per million km pg/m3, micrograms per cubic meter 1. California standards for ozone, carbon monoxide (except 8-hour Lake Tahoe), sulfur dioxide 1 and 24 hour), Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-5 4.1 Air Quality and particulate matter (PM10, PM2.5, and visibility reducing particles), are values that are not to be exceeded. All others are not to be equaled or exceeded. California ambient air quality standards are listed in the Table of Standards in Section 70200 of Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations. 2. National standards (other than ozone, particulate matter, and those based on annual averages or annual arithmetic mean) are not to be exceeded more than once a year. The ozone standard is attained when the fourth highest eight-hour concentration in a year, averaged over three years, is equal to or less than the standard. For PMlo, the 24-hour standard is attained when the expected number of days per calendar year with a 24-hour average concentration above 150 pg/m3 is equal to or less than one. For PM2.5, the 24-hour standard is attained when 98 percent of the daily concentrations, averaged over three years, are equal to or less than the standard. Contact U.S. EPA for further clarification and current federal policies. 3. Concentration expressed first in units in which it was promulgated. Equivalent units given in parentheses are based upon a reference temperature of 250C and a reference pressure of 760 torr. Most measurements of air quality are to be corrected to a reference temperature of 250C and a reference pressure of 760 torr; ppm in this table refers to ppm by volume, or micromoles of pollutant per mole of gas. 4. Any equivalent procedure which can be shown to the satisfaction of the ARB to give equivalent results at or near the level of the air quality standard may be used. S. National Primary Standards: The levels of air quality necessary, with an adequate margin of safety to protect the public health. 6. National Secondary Standards: The levels of air quality necessary to protect the public welfare from any known or anticipated adverse effects of a pollutant. 7. Reference method as described by the EPA. An "equivalent method" of measurement may be used but must have a "consistent relationship to the reference method" and must be approved by the EPA. S. To attain the 1-hour national standard, the 3-year average of the 98th percentile of the daily maximum 1-hour average at each monitor within an area must not exceed 100ppb. To directly compare the national standards to the California standards the units can be converted from ppb to ppm. In this case, the national standards of 100ppb is identical to 0.100ppm. 9. On June 2, 2010, a new 1-hour S02 standard was established and the existing 24-hour and annual primary standards were revoked. To attain the 1-hour national standard, the 3-year average of the annual 99th percentile of the 1-hour daily maximum concentrations at each site must not exceed 75 ppb. The 1971 S02 national standards (24-hour and annual) remain in effect until one year after an area is designated for the 2010 standard, except that in areas designated nonattainment for the 1971 stanards, the 1971 standards remain in effect until implementation plans to attain or maintain the 2010 standards are approved. Note that the 1-hour national standard is in units of parts per billion (ppb). California standards are in units of parts per million (ppm). To directly compare the 1-hour national standard to the California standard the units can be converted to ppm. In this case, the national standard of 75 ppb is identical to 0.075 ppm. 10. The ARB has identified lead and vinyl chloride as "toxic air contaminants" with no threshold level of exposure for adverse health effects determined. These actions allow for the implementation of control measures at levels below the ambient concentrations specified for these pollutants. 11. The national standard for lead was revised on October 15, 2008 to a rolling 3-month average. The 1978 lead standard (1.5 fag/m3 as a quarterly average) remains in effect until one year after an area is designated for the 2008 standard, except that in areas designated nonattainment for the 1978 standard, the 1978 standard remains in effect until implementation plans to attain or maintain the 2008 standard are approved. 12. In 1989, the ARB converted both the general statewide 10-mile visibility standard and the Lake Tahoe 30-mile visibility standard to instrumental equivalents, which are "extinction of 0.23 per kilometer" and "extinction of 0.07 per kilometer"for the statewide and Lake Tahoe Air Basin standards, respectively. r `k 4.1-6 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 Table 4.1-2 South Coast Air Basin Attainment Status Pollutant Federal State 03 1-hr -- Nonattainment 03 8-hr Nonattainment Nonattainment PM10 Nonattainment Nonattainment PM2.5 Nonattainment Nonattainment CO Attainment Attainment NO2 Attainment Nonattainment S02 Attainment Attainment Pb Nonattainment Nonattainment VRP -- Unclassified SO4 -- Attainment 1-12S -- Unclassified Sources:ARB 2013 Table 4.1-3 Air Quality Data for 2006 to 2012: Central Los Angeles Monitoring Station Pollutant Averaging Time Maximum Concentrations' (units) 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 03 1 hour 0.11 0.115 0.109 0.139 0.098 0.087 0.093 (ppm) 8 hours 0.079 0.102 0.090 0.100 0.080 0.065 0.077 CO 1 hour 3 3 3 3 3 N/A N/A (ppm) 8 hours 2.6 2.2 2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 1.9 NO2 1 hour 0.11 0.10 0.12 0.12 0.089 0.110 77.3* ppm Annual AAM 0.0288 0.0299 0.0275 0.0281 0.025 0.0231 24.8* PM10 24 hours 59 78 66 72 42 53 80 (pg/m3) Annual AAM 30.3 33.3 30.9 33.1 27.1 29.0 30.2 PM2.5 24 hours 56.2 64.2 78.3 61.7 39.2 49.3 58.7 (pg/m3) Annual (AAM) 15.6 16.8 15.7 14.3 11.9 13.0 12.5 S02 1 hour 0.03 0.01 0.01 0.01 9.8* 19.8* 5.2* (ppm) 24 hours 0.006 0.003 0.002 0.002 1.5* N/A N/A Source: South Coast Air Quality Management District, 2006-2012. * In ppb Table 4.1-4 2006-2012 Air Quality Standards Exceedance 03 (PPM) PMlo /m3 PM2.5 /ms Year Fed* State State Fed State Fed^ 8-hr 1-hr 8-hr 24-hr 24-hr 24-hr 2006 0 8 4 0 3 5.1 11 3.3 2007 3 3 6 0 5 9 20 0.6 2008 3 3 7 0 42% 10 (3.0) 2009 2 3 5 0 4 (6.7) 7 1.9 2010 1 1 1 0 0 2 0.6% 2011 0 0 0 0 2 10 4 (1.2%) y 2012 1 1 0 2 0 4 4 Source: SCAQMD 2006-2012 -- pollutant not monitored lr�/� S * 0.075 ppm A35 pg/m3 a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-7 4.1 Air Quality Sensitive Receptors The SCAQMD defines sensitive receptors as populations more susceptible to the effects of air pollution than the general population. Sensitive receptors, as defined by SCAQMD and used in this section of this Supplemental EIR, include asthmatics, the elderly, very young children, people already weakened by other disease or illness, and persons engaged in strenuous work or exercise. Sensitive receptors located in or near the vicinity of known air emissions sources, including freeways and heavily traveled intersections, are of particular concern. Toxic Air Pollutants Toxic air pollutants, such as asbestos, can be emitted during the demolition of buildings that contain toxic contaminants and during the operation of certain industrial processes that utilize toxic substances. Federal and state governments have implemented a number of programs to control toxic air emissions. For example, the federal Clean Air Act provides a program for the control of hazardous air pollutants. In addition, the California legislature has enacted programs such as the Tanner Toxics Act (AB1807), the Air Toxics Hot Spot Assessment Program (AB2588), the Toxics Emissions Near Schools Program (AB3205) and the Disposal Site Air Monitoring Program (AB3374). Additionally, mobile sources can also contribute to toxic air pollution. The Multiple Air Toxics Exposure Study (MATES-II) is a comprehensive monitoring study of TACs that was initiated as part of AQMD's environmental justice program. This study revealed that diesel exhaust is responsible for approximately 70 percent of the total cancer risk from air pollution. While diesel is considered a toxic air pollutant, and as such is called a "non-criteria" air contaminant because ambient air quality standards have not been established, diesel pollution may be addressed under measures that seek to control PM2.5 because diesel pollution manifests as ultrafine particulate matter. Regulatory Framework The Program EIR includes a summary of the Federal Clean Air Act, the California Clean Air Act, and the 2003 and 2007 SCAQMD Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP), all of which are applicable to the current project. The SCAQMD AQMP was updated in 2012. The 2012 AQMP was adopted by the SCAQMD board on December 7, 2012. The 2012 AQMP incorporated the latest scientific and technological information and planning assumptions, including the 2012 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy and updated emission inventory methodologies for various source categories. The 2012 AQMP includes the new and changing federal requirements, implementation of new technology measures, and the continued development of economically sound, flexible compliance approaches. The SCAQMD is currently in the process of preparing the 2015 AQMP update. 4.1-8 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 The SCAQMD has published a handbook (CEQA Air Quality Handbook, November 1993) that provides local governments with guidance for analyzing and mitigating project-specific air quality impacts. This handbook provides standards, methodologies, and procedures for conducting air quality analyses in EIRs. In order to control air pollution in the Basin, SCAQMD adopts rules that establish permissible air pollutant emissions and governs a variety of businesses, processes, operations, and products to implement the AQMP and the various federal and state air quality requirements. SCAQMD does not adopt rules for mobile sources; those are established by ARB or the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Rules that will be applicable during construction of future development include Rule 403 (Fugitive Dust) and Rule 1113 (Architectural Coatings). Rule 403 prohibits emissions of fugitive dust from any grading activity, storage pile, or other disturbed surface area if it crosses the project property line or if emissions caused by vehicle movement cause substantial impairment of visibility (defined as exceeding 20 percent opacity in the air). Rule 403 requires the implementation of Best Available Control Measures (BACM) and includes additional provisions for projects disturbing more than five acres and those disturbing more than fifty acres. Rule 1113 establishes the thresholds for low-VOC coatings. Global Climate Change Global climate change (GCC) refers to the change in average meteorological conditions on the Earth with respect to temperature, wind patterns, precipitation and storms. Global temperatures are regulated by naturally occurring atmospheric gases such as water vapor, CO2 (carbon dioxide), N2O (nitrous oxide), CH4 (methane), hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, and sulfur hexafluoride. These particular gases are important due to their residence time (duration they stay) in the atmosphere, which ranges from 10 years to more than 100 years. These gases allow solar radiation into the Earth's atmosphere, but prevent heat from escaping, thus warming the Earth's atmosphere. GCC can occur naturally as it has in the past with the previous ice ages. According to CARB, the climate change that is currently in effect differs from previous climate changes in both rate and magnitude (CARB, 2004, Technical Support document for Staff Proposal Regarding Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Motor Vehicles). Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are often referred to as greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere by both natural and anthropogenic (human) activity. Without the natural greenhouse gas effect, the Earth's average temperature would be approximately 610 Fahrenheit (F) cooler than it is currently. The cumulative accumulation of these gases in the earth's atmosphere is considered to be the cause for the observed increase in the earth's temperature. Although California's rate of growth of greenhouse gas emissions is slowing, the state is still a substantial contributor. In 2004, the state is estimated to have produced 492 million gross metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent greenhouse gas emissions. Despite a population increase of 16 percent between 1990 and Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-9 4.1 Air Quality 2004, California has significantly slowed the rate of growth of greenhouse gas emissions due to the implementation of energy efficiency programs as well as adoption of strict emission controls. Global climate change first became a matter of concern in the 1980s, and the United Nations in 1988 created the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to assess the potential impacts of global warming and develop strategies that could be instituted by nations in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In California, efforts to reduce California's energy use began in the 1970s, although not in response to global climate change concerns. Title 24 Part 6, enacted in 1978, required buildings to meet energy efficiency standards. Vehicle emissions of greenhouse gases were targeted in 2002 with the passage of AB1493, which required CARB to develop regulations to limit greenhouse gas emissions by cars and light duty trucks. These measures went into effect in 2009, and it is estimated that vehicle emissions of greenhouse gases will be reduced by approximately 18 percent by 2020. (CARB 2004) Although the United States has pledged over $29 billion for research into global climate change, the USEPA does not currently regulate vehicle greenhouse gas emissions. However, the USEPA does have the authority to regulate vehicle greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act, as found in the Supreme Court ruling in Massachusetts v. USEPA (2007). In 2006, AB 32, the California Global Warming Solutions Act, was signed into law by Governor Schwarzenegger, giving CARB the primary responsibility in reducing statewide greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. CARB is also required by January 1, 2008 to determine greenhouse gas emission levels for 1990 and to approve a statewide greenhouse gas emissions limit to be achieved by 2020 that is based on this limit. Specific, anticipated impacts to California have been identified in the 2009 California Climate Adaptation Strategy prepared by the California Natural Resources Agency (CNRA) through extensive modeling efforts." General climate changes in California indicate that: • California is likely to get hotter and drier as climate change occurs with a reduction in winter snow, particularly in the Sierra Nevadas • Some reduction in precipitation is likely by the middle of the century • Sea-levels will rise up to an estimated 55 inches • Extreme events such as heat waves, wildfires, droughts, and floods will increase • Ecological shifts of habitat and animals are already occurring and will continue to occur It should be noted that changes are based on the results of several models prepared under different climatic scenarios; therefore, discrepancies occur between the projections. The potential impacts of global climate change in California are detailed below. 4.1-10 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 Public Health and Welfare Concerns related to public health and climate change includes higher rates of mortality and morbidity, change in prevalence and spread of disease vectors, decreases in food quality and security, reduced water availability, and increased exposure to pesticides. These concerns are all generally related to increase in ambient outdoor air temperature, particularly in summer. Higher rates of mortality and morbidity could arise from more frequent heat waves at greater intensities. Health impacts associated with extreme heat events include heat stroke, heat exhaustion, and exacerbation of medical conditions such as cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, diabetes, nervous system disorders, emphysema, and epilepsy. Climate change would result in degradation of air quality promoting the formation of ground-level pollutants, particularly ozone. Degradation of air quality would increase the severity of health impacts from criteria and other air pollutants discussed in Section 4.3 (Air Quality). Temperature increases and increases in carbon dioxide are also expected to increase plant production of pollens, spores, and fungus. Pollens and spores could induce or aggravate allergic rhinitis, asthma, and obstructive pulmonary diseases. Precipitation projections suggest that California will become drier over the next century due to reduced precipitation and increased evaporation from higher temperatures. These conditions could result in increased occurrences of drought. Surface water reductions will increase the need to pump groundwater, reducing supplies and increasing the potential for land subsidence. Precipitation changes are also suspected to impact the Sierra snowpack (see Water Management herein). Earlier snow melts could coincide with the rainy season and could result in failure of the flood control devices in that region. Flooding can cause property damage and loss of life for those affected. Increased wildfires are also of concern as the State dries over time. Wildfires can also cause property damage, loss of life, and injuries to citizens and emergency response services. Sea-level rises would also threaten human health and welfare. Flood risks will be increased in coastal areas due to strengthened storm surges and greater tidal damage that could result in injury and loss of property and life. Gradual rising of the sea will permanently inundate many coastal areas in the state. Other concerns related to public health are changes in the range, incidence, and spread of infectious, water-borne, and food-borne diseases. Changes in humidity levels, distribution of surface water, and precipitation changes are all likely to shift or increase the preferred range of disease vectors (i.e. mosquitoes). This could expose more people and animals to potential for vector-borne disease. Biodiversity and Habitat Changes in temperature will change the livable ranges of plants and animals throughout the state and cause considerable stress on these species. Species will shift their range if appropriate habitat is available and accessible if they cannot Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-11 4.1 Air Quality adapt to their new climate. If they do not adapt or shift, they face local extirpation or extinction. As the climate changes, community compositions and interactions will be interrupted and changed. These have substantial implications on the ecosystems in the state. Extreme events will lead to tremendous stress and displacement on affected species. This could make it easier for invasive species to enter new areas, due to their ability to more easily adapt. Precipitation changes would alter stream flow patterns and affect fish populations during their life cycle. Sea level rises could impact fragile wetland and other coastal habitat. Water Management Although disagreement among scientists on long-term precipitation patterns in the State has occurred, it is generally accepted by scientists that rising temperatures will impact California's water supply due to changes in the Sierra Nevada snowpack. Currently, the State's water infrastructure is designed to both gather and convey water from melting snow and to serve as a flood control device. Snowpack melts gradually through spring warming into early summer, releasing an average of approximately 15 million acre-feet of water. The State's concern related to climate change is that due to rising temperatures, snowpack melt will begin earlier in the spring and will coincide with the rainy season. The combination of precipitation and snowmelt would overwhelm the current system, requiring tradeoffs between water storage and flood protection to be made. Reduction in reserves from the Sierra Nevada snowpack is troublesome for California and particularly for Southern California. Approximately 75-percent of California's available water supply originates in the northern third of the state while 80 percent of demand occurs in the southern two-thirds. There is also concern that rising temperatures will result in decreasing volumes from the Colorado River basin. Colorado River water is important to Southern California because it supplies water directly to Metropolitan Water District of Southern California. Water from the Colorado River is also used to recharge groundwater basins in the Coachella Valley. Agriculture California is the most agriculturally productive state in the U.S. resulting in more than 37 billion dollars in revenue in 2008. California is the nation's leading producer of nearly 80 crops and livestock commodities, supplying more than half of the nation's fruit and vegetables and over 90 percent of the nation's production of almonds, apricots, raisin grapes, olives, pistachios, and walnuts. Production of crops is not limited to the Central Valley but also occurs in Southern California. Strawberries and grapes are grown in San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. Orange County and San Diego County also contribute to strawberry production. Cherries are also grown in Los Angeles and Riverside County. Anticipated impacts to agricultural resources are mixed when compared to the potentially increased temperatures, reduced chill hours, and changes in precipitation associated with climate change. For example, wheat, cotton, maize, sunflower, and rice are anticipated to show declining yields as temperatures rise. Conversely, grapes and almonds would benefit from warming temperatures. Anticipated increases in the number and severity in heat waves would have a negative impact on livestock where heat stress would make livestock more vulnerable to disease, infection and 4.1-12 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 mortality. The projected drying trend and changes in precipitation are a threat to agricultural production in California. Reduced water reliability and changes in weather patterns would impact irrigated farmlands and reduce food security. Furthermore, a drying trend would increase wildfire risk. Overall, agriculture in California is anticipated to suffer due to climate change impacts. Forestry Increases in wildfires will substantially impact California's forest resources that are prime targets for wildfires. This can increase public safety risks, property damage, emergency response costs, watershed quality, and habitat fragmentation. Climate change is also predicted to affect the behavior or plant species including seed production, seedling establishment, growth, and vigor due to rising temperatures. Precipitation changes will affect forests due to longer dry periods and moisture deficits and drought conditions that limit seedling and sapling growth. Prolonged drought also weakens trees, making them more susceptible to disease and pest invasion. Furthermore, as trees die due to disease and pest invasion (i.e. the Bark Beetle invasion of the San Bernardino Forest), wildfires can spread more rapidly. Transportation and Energy Infrastructure Higher temperatures will require increased cooling, raising energy production demand. Higher temperatures also decrease the efficiency of distributing electricity and could lead to more power outages during peak demand. Climate changes would impact the effectiveness of California's transportation infrastructure as extreme weather events damage, destroy, and impair roadways and railways throughout the state causing governmental costs to increase as well as impacts to human life as accidents increase. Other infrastructure costs and potential impacts to life would increase due to the need to upgrade levees and other flood control devices throughout the state. Infrastructure improvement costs related to climate change adaptation are estimated in the tens of billions of dollars. The global warming potential (GWP) is a measure of how much a given mass of greenhouse gas is estimated to contribute to global warming. It is a relative scale which compares the gas being measured to carbon dioxide (whose GWP is by definition 1). GWP is based on a number of factors, including the heat-absorbing ability of each gas and the decay rate of each gas relative to that of carbon dioxide. The higher the GWP, the more impact the gas has on global warming. The GWP measures in this report are based on a 100-year time horizon. The principal greenhouse gases resulting from anthropogenic activity that enter and accumulate in the atmosphere are discussed below: • Carbon Dioxide (CO2): Carbon dioxide is created in the combustion of fossil fuels, forest clearing, and biomass burning. Human activity is more closely tied to carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere than other greenhouse gases, and carbon dioxide is used as a reference to compare the impacts of other greenhouse gases. Concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have typically increased at a rate of 0.5% per year and levels today are 30% higher than those prior to the industrial revolution. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-13 4.1 Air Quality • Methane (CH4): Methane is a hydrocarbon produced through production and distribution of natural gas and oil, coal production, incomplete fuel combustion, waste decomposition, and animal digestion. Methane concentrations in the atmosphere are over twice their pre-industrial levels, and increasing 0.6% each year, although this rate is thought to be slowing. The global warming potential of methane is 23."' • Nitrous Oxide (N20): Nitrous oxide is emitted during fossil fuel combustion, biomass burning, and certain agricultural and industrial activities. Compared to carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide is an especially dangerous greenhouse gas, with a global warming potential of 296. • Fluorinated Gases: Hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, and sulfur hexafluoride are synthetic, powerful greenhouse gases that are emitted from a variety of industrial processes. Fluorinated gases are often used as substitutes for ozone-depleting substances (i.e., CFCs, HCFCs, and halons). These gases are typically emitted in smaller quantities, but because they are some of the most potent greenhouse gases, they are referred to as having a "High Global Warming Potential." The global warming potential of these gases ranges from 140 to 23,900. Since adoption of the Program EIR, the Air Resources Board Scoping Plan, Executive Order S-3-05, the Sustainable Communities and Climate Protection Act, California Green Building Standards, and the Water Conservation Landscaping Act were adopted. In addition, the City of Vernon has established a goal to become a leader in environmentally responsible energy generation. Air Resources Board Scoping Plan The ARB Scoping Plan is the comprehensive plan to reach the GHG reduction targets stipulated in AB 32. The key elements of the plan are to expand and strengthen energy efficiency programs, achieve a statewide renewable energy mix of 33 percent, develop a cap-and-trade program with other partners in the Western Climate Initiative (includes seven states in the United States and four territories in Canada), establish transportation-related targets, and establish fees.' ARB estimates that implementation of Scoping Plan measures will reduce GHG emissions in the state by 174 MMTC2E by 2020; therefore, implementation of the Scoping Plan will meet the 2020 reduction target. In a report prepared on September 23, 2010, ARB indicates that 40 percent of the reduction measures identified in the Scoping Plan have been secured. ARB held the hearing for the cap-and-trade program rulemaking on December 16, 2010. The cap-and-trade program began January 1, 2012 after ARB completed a series of activities that deal with the registration process, compliance cycle, and tracking system; however, covered entities will not have an emissions obligation until 2013.v' ARB is currently working on the low carbon fuel standard where public hearings and workshops are currently being conducted. In August 2011, the Scoping Plan was reapproved by the ARB Board with the program's environmental documentation. 4.1-14 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 Executive Order S-3-05 Executive Order S-3-05 was issued by California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and established targets for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions at the milestone years of 2010, 2020, and 2050. Statewide GHG emissions must be reduced to 1990 levels by year 2020 and by 80 percent beyond that by year 2050. The Order requires the Secretary of the California Environmental Protection Agency (CaIEPA) to coordinate with other State departments to identify strategies and reduction programs to meet the identified targets. A Climate Action Team (CAT) was created and is headed by the Secretary of CaIEPA who reports on the progress of the reduction strategies. The latest CAT Biennial Report to the Governor and Legislature was completed in December 2010.v" CAT also works in 11 subgroups to support development and implementation of the Scoping Plan (see California Global Warming Solutions Act herein).

"' The objective of SB 375 is to better integrate regional planning of transportation, land use, and housing to reduce sprawl and ultimately reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other air pollutants. SB 375 tasks ARB to set greenhouse gas reduction targets for each of the California's 18 regional Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs). Each MPO is required to prepare a Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) as part of their Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). The SCS is a growth strategy in combination with transportation policies that will show how the MPO will meet its GHG reduction target. If the SCS cannot meet the reduction goal, an Alternative Planning Strategy (APS) may be adopted that meets the goal through alternative development, infrastructure, and transportation measures or policies. In the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) region (in which the project is located), sub-regions can also elect to prepare their own SCS or APS. In August 2010, ARB released the proposed GHG reduction targets for the MPOs to be adopted in September 2010. The proposed reduction targets for the SCAG region were 8-percent by year 2020 and 13-percent by year 2035. The 8-percent year 2020 target was adopted in September 2010 and tentatively adopted the 13- percent year 2035 target until February 2011 to provide additional time for SCAG, ARB, and other stakeholders to account for additional resources (such as state transportation funds) needed to achieve the proposed targets. In February 2011, the SCAG President affirmed the year 2035 reduction target and SCAG staff updated ARB on additional funding opportunities. The status of funding was requested to be revisited again in year 2014. California Green Building Standards New California Green Building Standards Code (CALGREEN) went into effect on January 1, 2011." The purpose of the new addition to the California Building Code (CBC) is to improve public health, safety, and general welfare by enhancing the design and construction of buildings using concepts to reduce negative impacts or produce positive impacts on the environment. The CALGREEN regulations cover planning and design, energy efficient, water efficiency and conservation, material conservation and resources efficiency, and environmental quality. Many of the new regulations have the effect of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the 4.1-16 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 operation of new buildings. Table 4.1-6 (CALGREEN Requirements) summarizes the previous requires of the CBC and the new requirements of CALGREEN that went into effect in January 2011.

The ordinance is to address water conservation through appropriate use and grouping of plants based on environmental conditions, water budgeting to maximize irrigation efficiency, storm water retention, and automatic irrigation systems. Failure to adopt a water efficiency ordinance requires a local jurisdiction to enforce the provisions of the State's model water efficiency ordinance. In 2009, the Department of Water Resources (DWR) updated the Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance pursuant to amendments to the 1991 Act. These amendments and the new model ordinance went into effect on January 1, 2010. The amended Act is applicable to any new commercial, multi-family, industrial or tract home project containing 2,500 square feet (SF) or more of landscaping. Individual landscape projects of 5,000 SF or more on single-family properties will also be subject to the Act. All landscape plans are required to include calculations verifying conformance with the maximum applied water allowance and must be prepared and stamped by a licensed landscape architect. Green Vernon Vernon is committed to green energy and development. Listed below are ways the city is planning to achieve its goal of becoming a leader in environmentally responsible energy generation and environmentally sustainable city management.X • Vernon purchased 30,000 acres of property in Kern County for the development of wind and solar-generated electricity. The initial proposed wind energy project is expected to generate 175 megawatts of renewable energy. • A climate action plan will be prepared to guide the City on how to take advantage of opportunities to reduce emissions of gases linked to climate change. • The city has commissioned a study to create a Green Industrial Development Plan to establish a series of programs to enhance environmental sustainability and support economic vitality while protecting the health of its residents and workers and the residents in surrounding communities. Threshold for Determining Significance Air Quality For the purpose of this EIR, a significant impact will occur if implementation of the updated General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance will: A. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan; 4.1-18 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 B. Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation; C. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the program region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors); D. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations; or E. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people. Projects that exceed these thresholds are considered to have a significant adverse impact on air quality. The certified Program EIR determined that the General Plan Update would not conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan and would not result in the creation of objectionable odors which would affect a substantial number of people. This determination is still applicable, and will not be analyzed further in this Supplemental EIR. To determine if maximum daily criteria pollutant emissions from construction and operation of the proposed project are significant, the SCAQMD significance thresholds are used. These thresholds are identified in Table 4.1-7 (SCAQMD Maximum Daily Emissions Thresholds (Ibs/day)). Table 4.1-7 SCAQMD Maximum Daily Emissions Thresholds (Ibs/day) Pollutant Construction Operation NOx 100 55 VOC/ROG 75 55 PM10 150 150 PM2.5 55 55 Sox 150 150 CO 550 550 Lead 3 3 Source: SCAQMD 2012 SCAQMD has also established thresholds for emissions of toxic air contaminants. Toxic air emissions from a project are considered potentially significant if maximum incremental cancer risk is greater than 10 persons in 1,000,000 (1E-05). Cancer risk is determined by calculating the annual average toxic concentration (pg/m3) and multiplying it by the unit risk factor (URF) for the toxic and the lifetime exposure adjustment (LEA) of the receptor. URF represents the estimated probability that a person will contract cancer as a result of inhalation of a toxic of 1 pg/m3 continuously over 70 years. Because some receptors are exposed to toxics for less than 70 years (i.e. off-site workers), the LEA adjusts the receptors Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-19 4.1 Air Quality exposure to represent actual exposure time. The LEA for residential uses and other sensitive receptors is 1, representing an assumed exposure of 70 continuous years. Acute and chronic non-cancer risks are considered significant if the project toxic air contaminant emissions result in a hazard index greater than or equal to 1. The hazard index is determined by calculating the average annual toxic concentration (pg/m3) divided by the reference exposure level (REL) for a particular toxic. The REL is the concentration at which no adverse health impacts are anticipated and is established by OEHHA. Greenhouse Gas Emissions The proposed project could result in potentially significant impacts related to greenhouse gas emissions and global climate change if it would: A. Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment. B. Conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purposes of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases. As a policy document, the proposed General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance will not directly result in construction or operation of any development that contributes to climate change and associated impacts. However, implementation of the General Plan will guide future development that will generate greenhouse gases and will contribute to climate change. Future development projects will be required to determine if individually they exceed recognized or adopted thresholds that comply with adopted greenhouse gas reduction plans. A numerical threshold for determining the significance of greenhouse gas emissions in the South Coast Air Basin (Basin) has not been established by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). As an interim threshold based on guidance provided in the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA) CEQA and Climate Change handbook, the City has opted to use a non- zero threshold approach based on Approach 2 of the handbook. Threshold 2.5 (Unit-Based Thresholds Based on Market Capture) establishes a numerical threshold based on capture of approximately 90 percent of emissions from future development. The latest threshold developed by SCAQMD using this method is 10,000 metric tons carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2E) per year for industrial projects, 3,500 MTCO2E for residential projects, 1,400 MTCO2E for commercial projects, and 3,000 MTCO2E for mixed use projects. This threshold is based on the review of 711 CEQA projects. These thresholds will be utilized for implementing development in the future in determining if emissions of greenhouse gases will be significant, until an officially adopted threshold is established and accepted by the City. 4.1-20 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 Environmental Impact Impacts 4.1.A through 4.1.0 Criteria Pollutants With the exception of a limited number of vacant lots, Vernon is completely built out. New development will result from rebuilding activity and the replacement of older, less efficient buildings with more functional ones. The updated General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance provide for Vernon to remain a primarily industrial city with limited housing. All new businesses established in the City over the lifetime of the General Plan update are anticipated to be similar to those which exist today. The proposed expanded Commercial Overlay District along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Atlantic Boulevard, and Slauson Avenue, and portions of Soto Street will allow for limited commercial uses. The proposed project will also establish and apply a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay. However, as indicated in the certified General Plan EIR, long-term implementation of the updated General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance is anticipated to result in a decrease in overall building square footage citywide, by approximately 1.2 million square feet, as older buildings are replaced by structures that meet current City standards for off-street parking and loading and other development standards. Air quality impacts for General Plan build out year 2030 were analyzed in the certified Program EIR using CARB's land use and air pollution emissions model (URBEMIS 2007). Compared to 2007 (baseline) conditions, the previous General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update resulted in a reduction of all pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions. Since adoption of the certified Program EIR in 2007, the City of Vernon has adopted a Housing Element that identifies opportunities for housing in the City. Existing 2012 land use conditions will serve as the baseline, and year 2035 build out conditions based on the updated General Plan Land Use Plan, which includes the adopted Housing Element, will serve as the proposed project conditions. The analysis utilizes guidance provided in the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) 1993 California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Air Quality handbook as amended and supplemented. The California Emissions Estimator Model (CaIEEMod) v 2013.2.2 was used to forecast emissions levels for baseline and project operational activity. Underlying land use designations for the City is Industrial. The implementation of zoning overlays will not affect this underlying land use designation. Therefore, CaIEEMod was used to model air quality and greenhouse gas emissions for general light industrial use for the entire city minus rail and utility right-of-ways, streets, and vacant parcels during baseline conditions. Project build out conditions includes vacant parcels as future development is likely to occur. Emissions Sources The zoning overlay areas are intended to allow for more flexible, non-industrial land uses. As the built-out city redevelops, older industrial uses within each Overlay may be replaced by other uses. Default CaIEEMod trip and emissions rates for uses Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-21 4.1 Air Quality anticipated within each Overlay Zone are discussed below. The General Light Industry land use category is estimated to generate approximately 6.97 daily trips per 1,000 square feet and use 4.9 kWhr/square foot/year of Title-24 electricity energy intensity, 3.23 kWhr/square foot/year of nontitle 24 Electricity energy intensity, 7.04 kWhr/square foot/year lighting energy intensity, 1.21 KBTU/square foot/year Title-24 Gas Energy Intensity, and 0.49 KBTU/square foot/year of nontitle-24 Natural Gas Energy Intensity. Consumer products include cleaning supplies and aerosol products that emit volatile organic compounds (VOC). Use of consumer products is common in all settings. Commercial Overlay Zones The C-1 Overlay Zone identifies areas for the development of mercantile facilities including commercial, service, and business operations that are necessary to support industrial uses and serve existing on-site businesses and surrounding uses by improving access to a greater range of facilities and services. The C-2 Overlay Zone identifies areas for uses that may ordinarily conflict with the industrial character of the City. Commercial retail facilities within the C-2 Overlay Zone can provide for higher levels of intensity than those permitted in the C-1 Overlay Zone. Potential commercial land uses fall under CalEEMod's retail strip mall designation. Compared to the CalEEMod General Light Industry land use designation, retail strip malls have a higher trip rate of 44.32 daily trips per 1,000 square feet. Although the trip rate is higher, general light industrial uses will have a higher rate of heavy- duty and medium-duty trips. Retail strip malls also have a higher electricity and natural gas usage rate per square foot. According to CalEEMod, each square foot of retail strip mall space is estimated to use 4.9 KWhr/year of Title-24 electricity energy intensity, 3.23 KWhr/year of nontitle-24 electricity energy intensity, 7.04 KWhr/year of lighting energy intensity, 1.21 KBTU/year Title-24 natural gas energy intensity, and 0.49 KWhr/year nontitle-24 natural gas energy intensity. Housing Overlay Zone The Housing Overlay Zone will allow for limited residential development in Vernon. It is assumed that housing will be multi-family. The CalEEMod default trip rate for mid-rise apartments is 6.59 daily trips per dwelling unit, less than per 1,000 square foot of light industrial. Each dwelling unit is also estimated to use approximately 267.12 KWhr/year of Title-24 electricity energy intensity, 2,553.86 KWhr/year of nontitle-24 electricity energy intensity, 741.44 KWhr/year of lighting energy intensity, 5,523.82 KBTU/year of Title-24 natural gas energy intensity, and 1,662 KWhr/year of nontitle-24 natural gas energy intensity. The size of each dwelling unit varies and is not comparable to an industrial use due to the difference in equipment, appliances used. Emergency Shelter Overlay Zone The Emergency Shelter Overlay Zone is intended to allow the development of a shelter to the homeless. It is anticipated that the only vehicle trips to the facility will be limited to the on-site manager, employees, and volunteers. Energy consumption will be similar to that of multi-family residential units and is not comparable to industrial use. 4.1-22 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 Rendering and Slaughtering Overlay Zones The Rendering and Slaughtering Overlay Zones are intended to support the processing of animal products into useful, value-added materials. The rendering and slaughtering use falls under the CalEEMod manufacturing land use category and will generate approximately 3.82 daily trips per 1,000 square feet, less than that of light industrial use. Each square foot of manufacturing use is estimated to use the same amount of electricity and natural gas as general light industry. Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone Truck and freight uses fall under the CalEEMod unrefrigerated warehouse (no rail) category. Warehouse land uses are anticipated to generate approximately 2.59 daily trips per 1,000 square feet, less than light industrial use. Each square foot of warehouse use is estimated to use less electricity and natural gas as light industrial use, using 0.79 KWhr/year of Title-24 electricity energy intensity, 1.34 KWhr/year of nontitle-24 electricity energy intensity, 2.23 KWhr/year of lighting energy intensity, 0.88 KBTU/year of Title-24 natural gas energy intensity, and 0.03 KBTU/year of nontitle-24 natural gas energy intensity. The underlying land use designations of the city remain industrial. The Overlay Zones merely provide opportunities for more flexible uses as the city evolves, and does not change the underlying land use. No specific uses are being authorized at this time. The type and scale of each proposed development project will have an effect on air quality impacts and will be determined on a project by project basis. AQMP Consistency and Pollutant Emissions A significant impact could occur if the proposed project conflicts with or obstructs the implementation of the current SCAQMD AQMP. Conflicts and obstructions that hinder implementation of the AQMP can delay efforts to meet attainment deadlines for criteria pollutants and maintaining existing compliance with applicable air quality standards. As a policy document, no development is authorized or will directly occur from the adoption of the General Plan update. However, development will occur within the planning area as guided by the policies of the General Plan. Short-term criteria pollutant emissions will occur during site preparation, grading, building construction, paving, and painting/coating activities. Emissions will occur from use of construction equipment, worker, vendor, and hauling trips, and disturbance of on-site soils (fugitive dust). Long-term criteria air pollutant emissions will result from the operation of potential development. Long-term emissions are categorized as area source emissions, energy demand emissions, and operational emissions. Operational emissions will result from automobile, truck, and other vehicle sources associated with daily trips to and from future development. As indicated in the Initial Study for the certified General Plan EIR, the General Plan Resources Element includes the following policies that ensure compliance with the AQMP. The Resources Element ensures that land use decisions implement and comply with federal, state, and local regulations pertaining to air quality. The Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-23 4.1 Air Quality policies of the Resources Element remain applicable and continued implementation would provide for continued compliance with SCAQMD regulations. The underlying land use designations of the city remain industrial, as was analyzed in the previous General Plan EIR. The proposed Overlay Zones merely provide opportunities for more flexible uses as the city evolves, and does not change the underlying land use or intent of the General Plan to support primarily industrial uses in the city. Therefore, compliance with SCAQMD regulations is consistent with the findings of the certified General Plan EIR and no additional impacts will result. GOAL R-2 Contribute to the continued gradual improvement of air quality in the South Coast Air Basin. POLICY R-2.1: Coordinate and cooperate with the South Coast Air Quality Management District and Southern California Association of Governments in efforts to implement the regional Air Quality Management Plan. POLICY R-2.2: Encourage and facilitate the use of public transportation to reduce emissions associated with automobile use. POLICY R-2.3: Continue to expand the number of City-owned alternative fuels vehicles, hybrid vehicles, and other energy-efficient vehicles as they may be available. POLICY R-2.4: Encourage the use of clean, efficient, state-of-the-art natural gas power plants. Using CalEEMod, long-term emissions from the planning area were modeled. Table 4.1-8 (Existing 2012 Total Daily Emissions (Ibs/day)) summarizes the current operational daily emissions based on all general light industrial use in the city excluding approximately vacant parcels. Table 4.1-9 (2035 General Plan Buildout Total Daily Emissions (Ibs/day)) summarizes the total operational daily emissions for General Plan Buildout year 2035 reflecting complete industrial use include the currently vacant parcels. These represent a worst-case scenario based on complete industrial buildout based on General Plan land use policy. Table 4.1-10 (Net Daily Emissions (Ibs/day)) summarizes the change in daily emissions from the existing 2012 baseline year to buildout year 2035. r f V� 4.1-24 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 Table 4.1-8 Existing 2012 Total Daily Emissions (Ibs/day) Source ROG NOX CO SO2 PMio PM2.5 Summer Area 2,977.60 0.12 12.15 0.0009 0.04 0.04 Energy 63.26 575.07 483.06 3.45 43.71 43.71 Mobile 3,992.54 13,111.85 53,171.59 109.64 212.93 195.52 Summer 7,033.40 13,687.04 53,667.80 113.09 256.68 239.27 Total Winter Area 2,977.60 0.12 12.15 0.00087 0.04 0.04 Energy 63.26 575.07 483.06 3.45 43.71 43.71 Mobile 4,116.64 13,828.83 51,193.08 104.07 213.95 196.46 Winter 7,157.50 14,404.03 51,688.29 107.52 257.70 240.21 Tota I Table 4.1-9 2035 General Plan Buildout Total Daily Emissions (Ibs/day) Source ROG NOX CO SO2 PM10 PM2.5 Summer Area 3,162.03 0.11 12.27 0.00092 0.04 0.04 Energy 67.18 610.73 513.01 3.66 46.42 46.42 Mobile 1,857.18 5,226.49 23,937.84 122.42 159.88 147.51 Summer 5,086.38 5,837.32 24,463.12 126.08 206.34 193.97 Total Winter Area 3,162.03 0.11 12.27 0.00092 0.04 0.04 Energy 67.18 610.73 513.01 3.66 46.42 46.42 Mobile 1,897.96 5,470.36 23,399.86 116.32 160.25 147.86 Winter 5,127.16 6,081.19 23,925.14 119.99 206.71 194.32 Total 5 Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.' -25 4.1 Air Quality Table 4.1-10 Net Daily Emissions (lbs/day) Source ROG NO.

Sulfur Dioxide (S02) is projected to increase by 11.49 percent in the summer and 11.60 percent in the winter; however these increases are nominal and will not exceed the emission threshold. The reduction in total emissions is consistent with the findings of the certified General Plan EIR and impacts will remain less than significant. Impact 4.1.13 Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations The proposed General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance would not authorize any specific construction; however, future development projects constructed pursuant to General Plan land use policies could potentially expose sensitive receptors to temporary, localized pollutant concentrations in excess of air quality standards, even if the broader region is in attainment. Examples include emissions of fugitive dust and vehicle and machinery exhaust during large-scale grading activities and roadway construction. Under limited circumstances, large- scale construction activities could result in emissions of fugitive dust, nitrogen oxides, and other criteria pollutants that could exceed SCAQMD daily thresholds of significance and thereby could result in a significant impact. Emissions of fugitive dust near sensitive receptors are a primary concern because, unlike gaseous pollutants that quickly rise and affect the upper atmosphere, particulate matter tends to remain close to the ground. 4.1-26 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 Future construction activities will be subject to routine control measures as required by SCAQMD (Rules 402, 403, 1108, and 1113). It should be noted that SCAQMD guidance indicates that analysis of localized criteria pollutant impacts is voluntary; therefore, future construction projects will be assessed for localized criteria pollutant impacts on a case-by-case basis under the purview of the City. Impacts related to local criteria pollutant emissions will not be significant with implementation of existing regulations and the General Plan policies. According to the Air Quality and Land Use Handbook, ARB recommends that sensitive land uses not be located within 500 feet of highways or major arterials having average annual daily traffic (AADT) that exceeds 100,000 vehicles. This is due to the concentration of pollutants that accumulate in this proximity to freeways and other major arterials. No non-freeway roadways within the planning area either currently or over the long term are projected to have an AADT that exceeds 100,000 vehicles. Interstate 10 and Interstate 215 currently and will likely continue to both have an AADT that exceeds 100,000. Based on ARB guidelines, a significant impact could occur if the General Plan would permit new residential or other sensitive uses within 500 feet of I-710, I-5, or US-101. Today, residential land uses do not exist within 500 feet of I-710, I-5, or US-101. Therefore; significant impacts to residents from heavy traffic roadway criteria pollutants would not occur. Toxic Air Contaminants Some industrial land uses have the potential to generate substantial toxic air contaminant (TAC) concentrations that could adversely affect sensitive receptors. Such emissions could be produced by a variety of interior processes and outdoor activities that generate emissions of TACs. TACs are air pollutants that may cause or contribute to an increase in deaths or serious illnesses or that may pose a present or potential hazard to human health. Unlike criteria pollutants, there are no levels of exposure to TACs that do not produce adverse health effects. The Tanner Bill requires implementation of risk reduction measures for toxic contaminant releases with cancer risks that are equal to or greater than 25 per million and the SCAQMD has established a TAC emissions cancer risk threshold of equal to or greater than ten per million. For example, common facilities within the District that have a cancer risk of approximately ten per million include forges, refineries, fuel distribution and storage facilities, and heavy plating facilities. Common facilities with a cancer risk of approximately 25 per million or more include aircraft manufacturing, large plating and machining facilities, and chemical manufacturing. The proposed General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update includes the expansion of commercial and trucking uses and the addition of housing and emergency shelter overlays. Future uses that may be developed within the designated commercial and trucking areas could result in emissions of a variety of toxic air contaminants. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-27 4.1 Air Quality ARB research has documented increased potential health risks for sensitive receptors as the distance to sources of hazardous emissions is reduced. Based on these findings, they have developed guidelines to assist local government agencies in siting new land uses that could be occupied by "sensitive individuals" at a safe distance from such sources. Sensitive individuals refer to those segments of the population most susceptible to poor air quality (i.e., children, the elderly, and those with pre-existing serious health problems affected by air quality). Land uses where sensitive individuals are most likely to spend time include schools and schoolyards, parks and playgrounds, daycare centers, nursing homes, hospitals and residential communities (also known as sensitive sites or sensitive land uses). Since existing and planned industrial land uses that exist make up a majority of the planning area, the City may be affected by any potential substantial industrial emission source that currently exists or may be developed in the future regardless of wind direction. Actual levels of risk can only be determined through site-specific analysis and specialized air pollutant modeling, based on an actual relationship between an industrial emission source and a specific residential site. Such assessments might determine that there are less than significant health risks, or that there could be some significant level of exposure to pollutants that need to be mitigated through siting, site design, or operational restrictions. With implementation of existing regulations that regulate and monitor toxic emitters, potential health impacts to sensitive receptors due to exposure to toxic air contaminants will be less than significant. Carbon Monoxide Hotspots A carbon monoxide (CO) hotspot is an area of localized CO pollution that is caused by severe vehicle congestion on major roadways, typically near intersections. CO hotspots have the potential to violate state and federal CO standards at intersections, even if the broader Basin is in attainment for federal and state levels. In general, the California Department of Transportation Project-Level Carbon Monoxide Protocol (CO Protocol) recommend analysis of CO hotspots when a project increases the number of vehicles operating in cold start mode by more than two percent, increases traffic volumes by more than five percent, or worsens average traffic speeds. In addition, CO hotspots are typically associated with intersections with lower ratings of Level of Services (LOS), such as LOS E or F, which indicate high congestion and high amounts of idling vehicles that have the potential to generate a CO hotspot. The following intersections operate at LOS E or F under current General Plan 2030 Conditions without improvements which was analyzed in the certified Program EIR: • Alameda Street at Vernon Avenue - West (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Alameda Street at Vernon Avenue - East (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Alameda Street at 55th Street - West (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Alameda Street at 55th Street - East (LOS F in evening peak hour) 4.1-28 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 • Santa Fe Avenue at 25th/26th Street (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) • Santa Fe Avenue at 38th Street (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Santa Fe Avenue at Vernon Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Santa Fe Avenue at Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Soto Street at 26th Street (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Soto Street at Bandini Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Soto Street at Vernon Avenue (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) • Soto Street at Leonis Boulevard (LOS E in morning peak hour) • Soto Street at Fruitland Avenue (LOS E in evening peak hour) • Boyle Avenue at Slauson Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Downey Road at Washington Boulevard (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) • Downey Road at Bandini Boulevard (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hour) • Downey Road at Slauson Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Atlantic Boulevard at Bandini Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Atlantic Boulevard at District Boulevard (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) The following intersections are anticipated to operate at LOS E or F in either or both of the morning or evening peak hours with the proposed General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance without improvements. • Alameda Street at Vernon Avenue - West (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Alameda Street at Vernon Avenue - East (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Alameda Street at 55th Street - West (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Alameda Street at 55th Street - East (LOS F in evening peak hour) • Santa Fe Avenue at 25th/26th Street (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) • Santa Fe Avenue at 38th Street (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Santa Fe Avenue at Vernon Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Santa Fe Avenue at Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Soto Street at 26th Street (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Soto Street at Bandini Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Soto Street at Vernon Avenue (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) • Soto Street at Leonis Boulevard (LOS E in morning peak hour) • Soto Street at Fruitland Avenue (LOS E in evening peak hour) Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.4 -29 4.1 Air Quality • Boyle Avenue at Slauson Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Downey Road at Washington Boulevard (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) • Downey Road at Bandini Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Downey Road at Slauson Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Atlantic Boulevard at Bandini Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) • Atlantic Boulevard at District Boulevard (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) All intersections determined to operate at LOS E or F in the certified Program EIR still operate at the same LOS except for one. Downey Road at Bandini Boulevard was projected to operate at LOS E in the morning peak hour in the certified Program EIR. With the proposed General Plan update and the revised Zoning Ordinance, Downey Road at Bandini Boulevard is projected to operate at LOS F in the morning peak hour. As discussed in the traffic analysis prepared by Kunzman Associates, the above intersections are not significantly impacted by the proposed General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance. Future development projects will be screened and analyzed pursuant to the CO Protocol to determine if a CO hotspot may occur at congested intersections. Mitigation may be required, if necessary, to alleviate traffic congestion and minimize the hotspot potential. Other mitigation could include operational restrictions on future development. Greenhouse Gases Greenhouse gas emissions were analyzed in the Program EIR and found to reduce with implementation of the 2030 General Plan. As noted in the air quality analysis above, the Program EIR analyzed a baseline year of 2007 and proposed General Plan build out year 2030. The analysis reflects the change in GHG emissions from existing 2012 baseline conditions and the proposed 2035 General Plan buildout. The analysis utilizes guidance provided in the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) 1993 California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Air Quality handbook as amended and supplemented. The California Emissions Estimator Model (CaIEEMod) v 2013.2.2 was used to forecast emissions levels for baseline and project operational activity. CaIEEMod default rates for general light industrial use were used to model air quality and greenhouse gas emissions with the exception of vehicle fleet mix. The recommended fleet mix (78.6 percent passenger cars, 8 percent light-duty trucks, 3.9 percent medium heavy-duty trucks, and 9.5 percent heavy heavy-duty trucks) in the Fontana Truck Trip Study was used.'' Development that occurs as a result of the implementation of the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update will include activities that emit greenhouse gas emissions over the short and long term. While one project could not be said to 4.1-30 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 cause global climate change, individual projects contribute cumulatively to greenhouse gas emissions that result in climate change. Individual projects will have prepared a greenhouse gas emissions inventory, to determine if individual projects exceed applicable screening or impact thresholds and would thus potentially contribute substantially to climate change and associated impacts. A summary of short- and long-term emissions and the analysis for each are included below. Short-Term Emissions Future development projects will result in short-term greenhouse gas emissions from construction. Greenhouse gas emissions will be released by equipment used for demolition, grading, paving, and other building construction activities. GHG emissions will also result from worker and vendor trips to and from project sites and from demolition and soil hauling trips. Construction activities are short-term and cease to emit greenhouse gases upon completion, unlike operational emissions that are continuous year after year until operation of the use ceases. Because of this difference, SCAQMD recommends in its draft threshold to amortize construction emissions over a 30-year operational lifetime. This normalizes construction emissions so that they can be grouped with operational emissions in order to generate a precise project GHG inventory. Typically, construction-related GHG emissions contribute unsubstantially (less than one percent) to a project's annual greenhouse gas emissions inventory and mitigation is not effective in reducing a project's overall contribution to climate change. Implementation of AB32 and SB375 through California Air Resources Board's (ARB) Scoping Plan and SCAG's RTP/SCS are designed to achieve the required reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Analysis of the General Plan's non-interference and support of these plans is presented below. With implementation of existing policies and regulations, short-term climate change impacts due to future construction activities will not be significant. Long-Term Emissions Future development projects will result in continuous GHG emissions from mobile, area, and operational sources. Mobile sources, including vehicle trips to and from development projects, will result primarily in emissions of CO2, with minor emissions of CH4 and N2O. The most significant GHG emission from natural gas usage will be methane. Electricity usage by future development and indirect usage of electricity for water and wastewater conveyance will result primarily in emissions of carbon dioxide. Disposal of solid waste will result in emissions of methane from the decomposition of waste at landfills coupled with CO2 emission from the handling and transport of solid waste. These sources combine to define the long- term greenhouse gas inventory for typical development projects. Table 4.1-11 (Existing 2012 Land Use Baseline Greenhouse Gas Emissions) summarizes current operational annual greenhouse gas emissions for an entirely light industrial city except the vacant parcels. Table 4.1-12 (2035 General Plan Buildout Total Greenhouse Gas Emissions) summarizes the anticipated total Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-31 4.1 Air Quality operational annual GHG emissions based on light industrial buildout of the City including the vacant parcels. This represents a worst-case complete build-out pursuant to the General Plan based on the proposed land use plan. Table 4.1-13 (Net Greenhouse Gas Emissions) summarizes net annual greenhouse gas emissions. As shown in Table 4.1-13, total greenhouse gas emissions will decrease with implementation of the proposed project.

Many of the strategies identified in the Scoping Plan are not applicable at the General Plan or project-level, such as long-term technological improvements to reduce emissions from vehicles. Some measures are applicable and supported by the project. Finally, while some measures are not 4.1-32 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 directly applicable, the project would not conflict with their implementation. Reduction measures are grouped into 18 action categories, as follows: 1. California Cap-and-Trade Program Linked to Western Climate Initiative Partner Jurisdictions. Implement a broad-based California cap-and-trade program to provide a firm limit on emissions. Link the California cap-and- trade program with other Western Climate Initiative Partner programs to create a regional market system to achieve greater environmental and economic benefits for California. Ensure California's program meets all applicable AB 32 requirements for market-based mechanisms. These programs involve capping emissions from electricity generation, industrial facilities, and broad scoped fuels. The City of Vernon has 150 qualifying heavy industrial facilitiesthat are be subject to these state requirements, and the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance Update would not interfere with their implementation. 2. California Light-Duty Vehicle Greenhouse Gas Standards. Implement adopted Pavley standards and planned second phase of the program. Align zero-emission vehicle, alternative and renewable fuel and vehicle technology programs with long-term climate change goals. This is not applicable as this is a statewide measure establishing vehicle emissions standards. 3. Energy Efficiency. Maximize energy efficiency building and appliance standards, and pursue additional efficiency efforts including new technologies, and new policy and implementation mechanisms. Pursue comparable investment in energy efficiency from all retail providers of electricity in California (including both investor-owned and publicly owned utilities). The General Plan promotes energy efficient building design, as well as implementation of existing building and other codes regulating minimum energy, and water efficiency consistent with 2011 CALGREEN requirements and would thus be consistent and not interfere with this program. 4. Renewables Portfolio Standards. Achieve 33 percent renewable energy mix statewide by 2020. This establishes the minimum statewide renewable energy mix and is not applicable at a City level or below for implementation. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with the implementation of this program. S. Low Carbon Fuel Standard. Develop and adopt the Low Carbon Fuel Standard. This is not applicable to a City as this establishes reduced carbon intensity of transportation fuels. 6. Regional Transportation-Related Greenhouse Gas Targets. Develop regional greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets for passenger vehicles. As is detailed following, the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would potentially conflict with and would not support the implementation of SCAG's RTP/SCS to achieve the required GHG reduction goals by 2020 and 2035 based on an inconsistency with growth projections. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-33 4.1 Air Quality The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update includes policies to reduce vehicle miles traveled by encouraging alternative modes of transportation. 7. Vehicle Efficiency Measures. Implement light-duty vehicle efficiency measures. This is not applicable to a City as this identifies measures such as minimum tire-fuel efficiency, lower friction oil, and reduction in air conditioning use. 8. Goods Movement. Implement adopted regulations for the use of shore power for ships at berth. Improve efficiency in goods movement activities. Identifies measures to improve goods movement efficiencies such as advanced combustion strategies, friction reduction, waste heat recovery, and electrification of accessories. While the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update may result in facilities such as distribution warehouses that are associated with goods movement, these measures are yet to be implemented and will be voluntary. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with their eventual implementation. 9. Million Solar Roofs Program. Install 3,000 megawatts of solar-electric capacity under California's existing solar programs. Sets goal for use of solar systems throughout the state. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with but instead would directly support installation of alternative energy sources through its policies and programs. 10. Medium- and Heavy-Duty Vehicles. Adopt medium-duty (MD) and heavy- duty (HD) vehicle efficiencies. Aerodynamic efficiency measures for HD trucks pulling trailers 53-feet or longer that include improvements in trailer aerodynamics and use of rolling resistance tires were adopted in 2008 and went into effect in 2010. Future, yet to be determined improvements, includes hybridization of MD and HD trucks. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update may result in development of industrial uses that utilize large MD and HD truck fleets. These potential future developments would be required to have their fleet equipment be consistent with the current applicable efficiency measures at the time of operation. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with implementation of this program. 11. Industrial Emissions. Require assessment of large industrial sources to determine whether individual sources within a facility can cost-effectively reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide other pollution reduction co- benefits. Reduce greenhouse gas emissions from fugitive emissions from oil and gas extraction and gas transmission. Adopt and implement regulations to control fugitive methane emissions and reduce flaring at refineries. These measures are applicable to large industrial facilities (> 500,000 MTCO2E/YR) and other intensive uses such as refineries. If a qualifying heavy industrial facility would be located in the City, it would be subject to these state 4.1-34 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Air Quality 4.1 requirements; the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with their implementation. 12. High Speed Rail. Support implementation of a high speed rail system. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with implementation of this program. 13. Green Building Strategy. Expand the use of green building practices to reduce the carbon footprint of California's new and existing inventory of buildings. The General Plan promotes energy efficient building design as well as implementation of existing building and other codes regulating minimum energy, and water efficiency consistent with 2011 CALGREEN requirements and would thus be consistent and not interfere with this program. 14. High Global Warming Potential Gases. Adopt measures to reduce high global warming potential gases. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not directly result in generation of high global warming potential gases, and would not interfere with implementation of any future changes in air conditioning, fire protection suppressant, and other emission requirements. 15. Recycling and Waste. Reduce methane emissions at landfills. Increase waste diversion, composting and other beneficial uses of organic materials, and mandate commercial recycling to move toward zero-waste. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update is consistent since implementing development will be required to recycle a minimum of 50 percent from construction activities and warehouse operations per state requirements. 16. Sustainable Forests. Preserve forest sequestration and encourage the use of forest biomass for sustainable energy generation. The 2020 target for carbon sequestration is 5 million MTCO2E/YR. This is not applicable as the City does not contain any areas defined as forest. 17. Water. Continue efficiency programs and use cleaner energy sources to move and treat water. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update is consistent since implementing development will include use of low-flow fixtures and water efficient landscaping per state requirements. 18. Agriculture. In the near-term, encourage investment in manure digesters and at the five-year Scoping Plan update determine if the program should be made mandatory by 2020. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update does not contain any agricultural land use designations, and any policies related to agriculture land uses would not be applicable. As summarized above, the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not conflict with any of the other provisions of the Scoping Plan. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update in fact supports four of the Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.1-35 4.1 Air Quality action categories through energy efficiency, green building, and water conservation through these proposed and current policies: GOAL R-1 Conserve and protect the region's water and energy resources. POLICY R-1.1: Encourage water conservation and the use of recycled water in new developments and by all industries. POLICY R-1.2: Support the use of energy-saving designs and equipment in all new development and reconstruction projects. Consistency with Applicable Plans, Policies, or Regulations The underlying land use designations of the city will remain industrial as analyzed in the certified General Plan EIR. The proposed Overlay Zones merely provide opportunities for more flexible uses as the city evolves, and does not change the underlying land use or intent of the General Plan. As the underlying land use designation remains industrial and has not changed, the proposed project will remain consistent with regional plans, including efforts to reduce regional and statewide greenhouse gas emissions considering current land use plans are considered during preparation of regional plans such as the RTP/SCS. In addition, as discussed above, total greenhouse gas emissions would decrease with implementation of the proposed project. Therefore, compliance with SCAQMD regulations is consistent with the findings of the certified General Plan EIR and no additional impacts will result. Mitigation Measures Impact will be less than significant at the programmatic level and no mitigation is required.

Main Street, Building 3, Los Angeles, California California Natural Resources Agency. 2009 California Climate Adaptation Strategy Global warming potential (GWP) is a measure of how much a given mass of greenhouse gas is estimated to contribute to global warming. It is a relative scale which compares the gas being measured to carbon dioxide (whose GWP is by definition 1). GWP is based on a number of factors, including the heat-absorbing ability of each gas and the decay rate of each gas relative to that of carbon dioxide. The higher the GWP, the more impact the gas has on global warming. The GWP measures in this report are based on a 100- year time horizon California Air Resources Board. Climate Change Scoping Plan.

The Initial Study (Appendix A) indicated that potential impacts relative to a irports, emergency response, and wildfires are less than significant. Environmental Setting As an exclusively industrial city, Vernon is home to many businesses that u se, manufacture, store, recycle, and transport hazardous materials. According to the Los Angeles County Fire Department, the term "hazardous materials" includes any material labeled as toxic, poisonous, corrosive, flammable, combustible, or as an irritant.' Monitoring Hazardous Materials in Vernon The certified Program EIR summarizes Vernon Environmental Health Department procedures and responsibilities related to hazardous materials. Health Department staff determines whether hazardous materials are to be stored on site and takes the appropriate measures if applicable. The Departmen t also cond ucts annual inspections to ensure that businesses are complying with their permit terms and requires these businesse s to place visible placards identifying categorie s of materials stored. Environmental Health Department and Fire Department The Environmental Health Department operates several programs to guard against the public health risks associated with the use, manufacture, and storing of hazardous materials by businesses in Vernon as identified in the Program EIR. In addition, the Vernon Fire Dep artment maintains four stat ions in th e City wit h equipment and staffing as identified in the Program EIR. Regulatory Framework Regulatory framework was discussed in the certified Program EIR. The followi ng includes additional background and regulatory information relevant to the Planning Area. Known Hazardous Wastes and Substances Sites The State of California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) maintains a list of known hazardous wastes and haza rdous substances sites throu ghout the state. This list, co mmonly referred to as the Cortese List, documents ongoing% actions to remediate contaminated sites. According to the version of the list posted on DTSC's website when the certified Program EIR was prepared in 2007, two sites in Vernon were identified as known hazardous wastes and substances sites. As of Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.2-1 4.2 Hazards and Hazardous Materials May 2014, six sites in Vernon were identified as known hazardous wastes and substances sites subject to remediation, with the following status:" Table 4.2-5 Cortese List Sites Name Location Site Type Status ADD 2306 E. 381h Str. Hazardous Waste - Undergoing Closure RCRA California Environmental 3691 Bandini Blvd. Hazardous Waste - Closed Services RCRA ChemClear of Los 3165 E.

Indiana Street Hazardous Waste - Interim Operating RCRA Permit CERCLIS and the National Priorities List The EPA also maintains the CERCLIS Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Information System list. This list contains sites that are either proposed to be or are on the National Priorities List (NPL) as well as sites that are in the screening and assessment phase for possible inclusion on the NPL. Th e NPL is a list of the worst hazardou s waste sites that have been identified b y Superfund. Sites are only put on the list after the y have been scored using the Hazard Ranking System (HRS), and have been subjected to public comment. Any site on the NPL is eligible for cleanup using Superfund Trust money. The HRS uses a structured analysis approach to scoring sites. This approach assigns numerical values to factors that relate to risk based on conditions at the site. The factors are grouped into three categories: • likelihood that a site has released or has the potential to release hazardous substances into the environment; ■ characteristics of the waste (e.g. toxicity and waste quantity); and • people or sensitive environments (targets) affected by the release. Four pathways can be scored under the HRS: ■ ground water migration (drinking water); ■ surface water migration (drinking water, human food chain, sensitive environments); ■ soil exposure (resident population, nearby population, sensitive environments); and ■ air migration (population, sensitive environments). After scores are calculated for one o r more pathways, they are combined using a root-mean-square equation to determine the overall site score. Listing on the NPL makes a site el igible for fun ding of I ong-term site re mediation. The U.S. r 4.2-2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Hazards and Hazardous Materials 4.2 Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) is re sponsible for id entifying and pursuing remediation of high ly contaminated hazardous waste sites. Under the authority of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCL A, and also re ferred to a s Superfund), the USE PA investigates abandoned hazardous waste sites, pursues appropriate clean up, and compels responsible parties to perform clean ups or reimburse the government for EPA-led remediation. The Program EIR identified five sites that were considered for the USEPA's Superfund National Priorities List but not added. As of June 2013, six sites in Vernon were referenced on the USEPA's Superfund National Priorities List (NPL) website are as follows:"' Table 4.2-6 Listed CERCLA Sites Name NPL (National Priorities List) Status ADD Truck Site Non-NPL ADD Facility Site Non-NPL Modern Pattern and Foundry Co., Inc. Non-NPL NI Industries Non-NPL Stauffer Chemical Company Non-NPL Globe Union Incorporated Non-NPL The Non-NPL status indicates that the sites were investigated for placement on the National Priorities List of the most hazardous sites identified for long-term clean up, but did not warrant such listing. RCRA and Hazardous Waste Generators The Resources Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) is a federa I law that regulates the generation, ma nagement, and tran sportation of waste material. Hazardous waste management, specifically, including the following: ■ Treatment: Any process that changes the physical or chemical composition of the waste to make it less harmful to the environment. • Storage: The holding of hazardous waste for a temporary period of time. ■ Disposal: The permanent final location of the hazardous waste into or on the land. RCRA approaches hazardous wastes from a cradle-to-grave approach, meaning that all hazardous wastes are tracked and strictly regulated from generation to disposal. Hazardous waste generators are required to report use or transport of hazardou s wastes to the EPA Thresholds for Determining Significance For the purpose of this EIR, a significant impact will occur if implementation of the. updated General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance would: Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.2-3 4.2 Hazards and Hazardous Materials A. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transportation, use, or disposal of hazardous materials; B. Create a significant hazard to the public or th e environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment; C. Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school; and/or D. Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would create a significant hazard to the public or the environment. Environmental Impact Impacts 4.2.A and 4.2.113 Use, Transport, and Disposal of Hazardous Materials and Wastes With the exception of a li mited number of vacant lots, Vernon is completely built out. Virtually all existing development consists of industrial businesses. According to City of Vernon Environmental Health Department staff, in any one year, between 40 and 60 percent o f all businesses in Vernon eith er store, use, or manufactu re hazardous materials to the e xtent that a City h azardous materials permit is required. The updated Genera I Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance provide for Vernon to remain a primarily industrial city with limited housing. All new businesses established in the City over the lifetime of the General Plan update are anticipated to be sim ilar to th ose which exist today. The propose d expanded C ommercial Overlay District along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Atlantic Boulevard, and Slauson Avenue, and portions of Soto Street will allow for limited commercial uses. If these areas begin to transition into commercial areas, the use, transport, and disposal in the area would likely reduce because commercial uses generally use few and less hazardous materials than industrial uses, thus reducing potential impacts when compared to those analyzed in the certifie d Program EIR. I n general, however, the types and mix of uses will remain relatively the same in the Planning Area as those anticipated under the certified Program EIR. The propo sed project will also establish and apply a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay. The Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay is designed to focus truck and freight terminals into areas to minimize impacts on other uses. T ypical freight terminals distribute consumer goods and would not increase the amount of hazardou s materials transported beyond those supported by the broader Industrial land use designation or the General Industrial (I) zoning district analyze d in the certified Program EIR. Truck terminals are utilized for the storage, maintenance, repair, and/or servicing of heavy-duty vehicles such as trucks and buses. Hazardous materials associated with these operations are common, such as motor oil, diesel fuel, and other 4.2-4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Hazards and Hazardous Materials 4.2 automotive chemicals and will not be outside the scope of the analysis provided in the certified Program EIR. Pursuant to City re gulations, all new businesses will be subject t o the City's mandatory occupancy inspection process, as detailed in the certified Program EIR, that includes documentation of current or proposed hazardous materials storage, the requirement of hazardous materials permits as applicable, and inspection b y Environmental Health Department staff to ensure compliance. These regulations ensure that all uses are assessed for the potential risk of upset related to the use, transport, and disposal of hazardous materials and are applicable to the proposed General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates in the same manner as was applicable under the analysis provided in the certified Program EIR. The following policies and actions are included in th e General Plan Safety Element and Implementation Program and listed in the certified Program EIR as reducing impacts related to hazardous materials: POLICY S-2.2: Continue to require every b usiness to maintain on site a material safety data sheet for each chemical or other hazardous material stored at the business, and to provide a list of the chemicals or other hazardous materials, and the locations where they are stored, to the Environmental Health Department for incorporating into Environmental Health and Fire Department records. The Fire Department and the Environmental Health Department will maintain the lists for all Vernon businesses in such a m anner that they are readily available to emergency response personnel to review during emergencies. Action S-7: Hazardous Materials Monitoring Program (Ordinance 961). Continue to implement the Hazard ous Materials Monitoring Program that monitors establishments where hazardous materials are produced, stored, handled, disposed of, treated, emitted, discharged, or recycled. The p rogram also d irects and coordinates emergency response in the event of releases of hazardous materials. Agency/Department: Environmental Health and Fire Department Funding Source: General Fund; Program Fees Time Frame: Ongoing Related Policies: S-2.1, S-2.2, S-3.2 Action S-8: Hazardous Waste. Continue to implement activities to assure that hazardous wastes generated by Vernon businesses are handled and disposed according to federal, state, an d local regulations. Assist businesses and con sultants in preparation and oversight of site assessments and mitigation activities. In order to minimize present and future threats to human health and the environment, the program actively promotes waste reduction options for hazardous waste generators. ■ Agency/Department: Environmental Health Department Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.2-5 4.2 Hazards and Hazardous Materials Funding Source: Permit Fees Time Frame: Ongoing Related Policies: S-2.1, S-2.2, S-3.2 Adoption and long-term implementation of the updated General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance will not change cur rent land use practi ces or regulatory requirements as analyzed under the ce rtified Program EIR; industrial busine sses that maintain hazardous materials on site will continue to represent a high percentage of the business activity in Vernon and will be subject to local, state, and federal regulations. Furthermore, the City will continue the established practice of issuing permits for and monitoring the use of hazardous ma terials per Ordinance No. 961 as ident ified in the certified Program EIR. The City of Vernon Fire Department will maintain its hazardous materials response unit and capabilities to provide a high degree of response and protection. Thus, the project will not create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through th e routine transportation, use, or disposal of hazardous materials, nor will the project create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment beyond that analyzed in the certified Program EIR. This is b ecause use, transport and disposal of hazardous materials will not appreciably increase and the same mandatory requirements noted in the certified Program EIR related to hazardous materials remain a pplicable. Furthermore, the certified Program EIR included Mitigation Measures H-1 an d H-2 to ensure the continued review, permitting, and budgeting for business involvement with hazardous materials and wastes. I mpacts will be equal to o r less than those determined in the certified Program EIR, remaining less than significant with mitigation incorporated and implementation of regulatory requirements and the policies of the General Plan. Impact 4.2.0 Hazardous Materials near Sensitive Receptors Schools, hospitals, and residential assisted care facilities can be difficult to evacuate during a hazardous materials emergency. Furthermore, the young, elderly, and sick are more susceptible to health conditions related to e xposure to hazardous materials. As such , these uses cou Id potentially be impacted by a hazardous materials release. A single school exists in Vernon: Vernon City Elementary School (Los Angeles Unified School District), located at 2360 E. Vernon Avenue. This public school provides elementary education for students in grades kindergarten through 5 and operates on a traditional September through June schoo I year. Vernon City Elementary is one of the oldest schools in the district, having opened its doors in 1928, 23 years after Vernon incorporated as an i ndustrial city. Th e school is surrounded by industrial businesses and has been for almost 80 years. During this time, land use policy and zoning regulations have allowed businesses that store or use hazardous materials to I ocate within one-quarter mile of t he school. Additionally, other schools are located in close pr oximity to the City of Vernon's boundaries in adjacent cities. 4.2-6 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Hazards and Hazardous Materials 4.2 The updated General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance will increase the potential for commercial development and truck and freight facilities when compared to the existing General Plan. While this proj ect will not d irectly involve any activity that emits hazardous emissions or handles hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste, policies and land use regulations will allow businesses which could have such characteristics to locate within one-quarter mile of schools, hospitals, residential, and residential assisted care facilities. These sensitive uses are located both within the City and near the C ity's boundaries in adjacent cities. In addition to state and fe deral requirements for management of hazardous materials and wastes, the following Gen eral Plan Safety Element policies further support the protection of residents and workers from risk of upset: Policy S-2.1: Continue to support and encourage State efforts to identify existing or previously existing hazardous waste generators or disposal sites in the City of Vernon. Policy S-2.2: Continue to require every business to maintain a list of the chemicals and other hazardous materials used or stored on site in accordance with appropriate material safety data sheets and otherwise in accordance with law, and to provide that list to the Fire Departme nt and Environmental Health Department. Require that the Fire Department and Environmental Health Department maintain a list of such materials and the location where the y are sto red or use d to perm it emergency personnel to respond appropriately, if required. Although the project include s changes in potential land use develo pment over the long-term, these ch anges do not inclu de a substantial increa se in the use, transport, or disposal of hazardous materials and thus will not increase risk of upset in vicinity of schools and other sensitive receptors beyond that analyzed in the certified Program EI R. Local, state, and federal regulations related to hazardous materials as noted in the certified Program EIR remain applicable to the project and will minimize impacts to sensitive receptors by requiring proper handling, tracking, and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes. The City of Vernon Environmental Health Department will continue to regulate businesses that store or use hazardous materials. Furthermore, the certified Program EIR included Mitigation Measures H-1 and H-2 to ensure the continued review, permitting, and budgeting for business involvement with hazardous materials and wastes. Impacts will be equal to or less than those determined in the ce rtified Program EIR, remaining less than significant with mitigation incorporation and implementation of regulatory requirements and the policies of the General Plan. Impact 4.2.113 Hazardous Materials Sites Because the General Plan upd ate allows for but d oes not a uthorizeJ65962.5. development project or any other land use altering proposal, it would any direct impacts involving a development project on a site k contaminated and reported as such under California Government Codenoted above, the Cortese List identifies six sites in Vernon as conta Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.2-7 4.2 Hazards and Hazardous Materials proposed project does not involve any development activity. Thus, no direct impact with regard to these sites will resu It from the project. Any future development application pursuant to land use policy could propose reuse of either one of the identified sites. However, an y such a ctivity will require environmental review pursuant to CEQA, includin g assessment for site contamination and possible site remediation prior to reuse. The proposed project does not include any policies that will change existing review procedures or regu Iatory requirements involving contaminated sites. Impacts will be equal to or I ess than those determined in the certified Program EI R, remaining less than significant with implementation of regulatory requirements and the policies of the General Plan. Mitigation Measures With regard to poten tial development on a contaminated site, impact will be le ss than significant, and no mitigation is required as stated in the Program EIR. With regard to th e use and transport of hazardous materials and the siting of activities involving the use of hazardous materials in close proximity to schools, hospitals, residential assisted care facilities, or similar uses, the following mitigation was required by the certified Program EIR and remains applicable to the proposed project: MITIGATION The City will continue to imp Iement the provisions of Cit y H-1 J ordinances to provid e for the business occupancy in spection program and the regular inspection of businesses involved in the production, storage, handling, disposal, treatment, emission, discharge, or recycling of haza rdous materials. Such activity will be funded as part of the City's annua I budgeting process, special tax, and/or will be funded as a fee program. MITIGATION At the time any new or re vised Hazardous Material Business H-2 I application for a new busin ess or activity is received for a J location within one-quarter mile of any residence, school, hospital, residential assisted care facility, or similar use (sensitive uses may be locate d within the City or outside its boundaries), or greater distance as may be determined by the Director of Environmental Health Department for particular business types, the City w ill review the applicat ion and determine whether a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) is required pursuant to State law and/or City Ordinance 961 to address any potential impacts to these uses. If an HRA is deem ed appropriate and further, if th e HRA id entifies potential risks associated with the business activity relative to proximity to the residence, school, hospital, residential assisted care facility or similar use, the City shall ensure that action is taken to address such risk. The action may consist of: 4.2-8 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Hazards and Hazardous Materials 4.2 - Denying the application within the limits of the Code of the City of Vernon, or - Requiring the business operator to incorporate preventative or ameliorative measures into the bu siness processes or activities to lower the risk to acceptable levels, as set forth by federal or state regulations and policies. Level of Impact after Mitigation Impacts will be less than significant at the programmatic level with implementation of mitigation, General Plan policies, and regulatory requirements.

Su perfund Site Information: Vernon. http://cfpub.epa.gov/supercpad/cursites/srchsites.cfm [June 2013] Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.2-9 Noise 4.3 This section of the Supplemental EIR examines potential impacts associated with noise in Vernon and whether future development permitted due to changes to the General Plan and Zoning Code would increase those impacts analyzed in the certified General Plan EIR. The Initial Study (Appendix A) indicated that there are potential impacts related to permanent and temporary noise and vibration. Environmental Setting Noise within the Vernon planning area is comprised of cumulative noise generated by transportation activities and stationary sources. Transportation noise refers to noise from automobile use, trucking, and rail operations. Non-transportation noise typically refers to noise from stationary sources such as industrial machinery, air conditioning systems, compressors, and outdoor industrial activities. Regardless of the type of noise, noise levels are highest near their source and decrease with distance. Noise Metrics and Standards Noise is most often defined as unwanted, excessive, or irksome sound. Sound - and noise - consists of energy waves that people receive and interpret. There are three properties of noise: the amplitude and amplitude variation of the acoustical wave (loudness), the frequency (pitch), and the duration of the noise. Despite the ability to measure sound, human perceptibility is subjective, and the physical response to sound complicates the analysis of its impact on people. People judge the relative magnitude of sound sensation in subjective terms such as ANnoisiness" or "loudness." Sound pressure magnitude is measured and quantified using a logarithmic ratio of pressures, the scale of which gives the level of sound in decibels (dB). In order to factor in the subjectivity of sound to the human ear and the variation of sensitivity to different frequencies of sound, the A-weighted sound pressure level, or dB(A), is the scale of measurement that is most useful in community noise measurement. This sound level is measured in decibels to provide a scale with the range and characteristics most consistent with that of peoples' sensitivity to sounds. The A-weighted sound level of traffic and other long-term noise-producing activities within and around a community varies considerably with time. Measurements of this varying noise level are accomplished by recording values of the A-weighted level during representative periods within a specified portion of the day. Because a given level of noise may be more or less tolerable depending on the duration of exposure, other measures of noise exposure have been developed. Federal and state agencies have established noise and land use compatibility guidelines that use averaging approaches to noise measurement. The State Department of Aeronautics and the California Commission on Housing and Community Development have adopted the community noise equivalent level (CNEL). To account for increased human sensitivity at night, this measure weights the average noise level at night by adding five dB to the measurement during the Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.3-1 4.3 Noise 7:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M. time period and an additional ten dB on noise measured during the 10:00 P.M. to 7:00 A.M. time period. The City of Vernon utilizes the CNEL measurement scale for its community noise/land use compatibility standards. In recognition of the industrial nature of the community, the current General Plan establishes 75 CNEL as the acceptable exterior ambient noise level for land use planning purposes. The current Zoning Ordinance establishes allowable exterior noise for all lots in the City of 75 dBA, except for lots located within one tenth (1/10) of a mile on any residence or school located in Vernon or abutting communities, which lots are limited to 65 dBA between 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. and 60 dBA between 10:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M.. Existing Noise Conditions Generalized ambient 24-hour community noise conditions frequently are illustrated using noise contour maps. Similar to a topographic map, a noise contour map shows variations in conditions within a specific geographic area. In Vernon, the most significant noise-producing activity involves the transportation systems. This noise source consists of several elements: arterial roadways, Interstate 710, and train operations on rail lines and at rail yards. Hence, the noise contours show higher levels along these transportation routes and near the rail yards. Exhibit 4.3- 1 (2007 Noise Contours) depicts the noise contours within the planning area during preparation of the certified EIR. No part of Vernon is located within an area covered by an airport land use plan. The nearest airport is in the city of Compton, approximately eight miles to the south. The certified EIR determined that the adoption and implementation of the General Plan update would not result in airport noise impacts on people residing or working within the Planning Area. Adoption and implementation of the focused General Plan and zoning code update would be consistent with the determination made in the certified EIR. The City is also subject to noise resulting from occasional aircraft overflights from regional airports, even though Vernon is outside of any specific airport noise contour. To identify baseline community noise conditions during preparation of the certified EIR, a total of three 24-hour noise measurements and eight limited noise measurements were obtained within the planning area. The locations are shown in Exhibit 4.3-2 (Noise Measurement Locations), and the results of these measurements are summarized in Table 4.3-1 (Noise Measurement Summary). Traffic Noise The eight limited-period noise measurements revealed that ambient noise was most often due to traffic on the surface streets in Vernon. Traffic in Vernon consists of local traffic serving local businesses, as well as a substantial amount of through traffic (that is, no trip ends in Vernon) along arterials such as Bandini Boulevard, Soto Avenue, Santa Fe Avenue, and Slauson Avenue. The results from these measurements indicated an Leq (average noise level during the measurement period) of between 66 dB(A) and 75 dB(A). 4.3-2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Noise 4.3 Table 4.3-1 Noise Measurement Summary Measured Noise lliLocation Time Levels, dB(A) LeQ Lmax CNEL 1 W.Alameda St at 42 St 11:55 A.M.to 12:23 P.M. 67.1 84.3 N/A 2 Rear yard of 4330 Furlong Place 24 hours -- -- 69.3 3 Vernon City Elementary School 3:36 P.M.to 3:56 P.M. 73.3 87.4 N/A 4 Leonis Blvd at Soto St 1:43 P.M.to 2:04 P.M. 67.6 85.7 N/A 5 Vernon Avenue 5:10 P.M.to 5:31 P.M. 66.2 76.0 N/A 6 E. 26th Street(without rail yard noise) 10:20 A.M. to 11:20 A.M. 69.9 83.7 N/A 6 E. 26th Street(with rail yard noise) 10:20 A.M. to 11:20 A.M. 74.4 89.3 N/A 7 Opposite 4408 Bandini Blvd 1:49 P.M.to 2:10 P.M. 74.7 88.0 N/A 8 Rear yard of 2638 53'd St, Huntington Park 24 hours -- -- 61.5 9 Adjacent to 3345 Fruitland Ave 4:18 P.M.to 4:39 P.M. 66.4 76.5 N/A 10 Rear yard of 4217 52"d St, Maywood 24 hours -- -- 64.0 11 State St at 60th Pl, Huntington Park 12:56 P.M.to 1:16 P.M. 70.2 83.0 N/A Notes: Leq is the equivalent(i.e.average)noise level during the measurement period. L...is the maximum noise level during the measurement period. CNEL is the community noise equivalent level,a weighted 24-hour measure of noise exposure that considers people's lower tolerance to noise during the evening and nighttime hours. Railroad Noise Vernon is exposed to noise from train operations on six rail lines, spur lines, and activities at the Burlington, Northern & Santa Fe (BNSF) rail yard, as well as at the Union Pacific (UPRR) rail yard in the adjacent city of Commerce. Table 4.3-2 (Existing Train Movement Data within City of Vernon) identifies the six rail lines affecting Vernon. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.3-3 4.3 Noise Table 4.3-2 Existing Train Movement Data within City of Vernon Average Daily Operations Day Evening Night Rail Line (7 am -7 pm) (7 pm -10 pm) (10 pm -7 am) Speed BNSF line adjacent to 26th St. Freight 16 4 12 40 mph Amtrak 19 3 4 65 mph Metrolink 34 2 11 65 mph BNSF line east of Santa Fe Ave. Freight 1 7 2 5 15 mph UP line on Alameda St. Freight 28 7 1 21 40 mph UP line on Downey Rd.

However, the land uses exposed to train noise are largely industrial in nature and are not noise sensitive. The primary source of annoyance to residents in the vicinity of the UPRR line adjacent to S. Downey Road is train horn soundings at crossings. Industrial Noise Due to the industrial nature of the City, manufacturing businesses in Vernon create noise, including noise generated by loading dock operations, trucks entering and leaving the area, and mechanical equipment located both inside and outside the building. The certified EIR determined that industrial noise at a residence adjacent to an industrial property was 69.3 CNEL. In addition, noise measurements were taken in the rear yards of two residences located in the neighboring Huntington Park and Maywood. The results indicated a CNEL of approximately 62 dB in Huntington Park and 64 dB in Maywood. The location at the site of measurement in Huntington Park is a residence abutting an industrial property in the City of Vernon. As such, the primary noise source affecting this residence is noise from the industrial property, with the average noise level ranging from 51.0 to 66.7 dB(A), and the maximum noise level ranged from 66.9 to 87.6 dB(A) during the daytime hours of 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. During the nighttime hours, the average noise level ranged from 44.0 to 51.5 dB(A), and the maximum noise level ranged from 54.0 to 73.7 dB(A). The calculated CNEL of 61.5 dB at this residence is less than the exterior CNEL guideline of 65 dB for residential properties in Vernon. This level also does not exceed the City of Huntington Park's CNEL standard of 65 dB. 4.3-4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Noise 4.3 In the city of Maywood, a noise measurement was obtained at a residence abutting an industrial property in Vernon. This residence is affected by noise from industrial ventilation equipment, traffic on Fruitland Avenue, and aircraft flyovers. At this location, the average noise level ranged from 57.1 to 60.9 dB(A), and the maximum noise level ranged from 72.3 to 84.8 dB(A) during the daytime hours of 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. During the nighttime hours, the average noise level ranged from 55.1 to 58.5 dB(A), and the maximum noise level ranged from 71.1 to 84.7 dB(A). The City of Maywood zoning code lists the following noise standards for residential areas: 55 dB(A) during nighttime hours of 10:00 P.M. to 7:00 A.M. and 60 dB(A) during daytime hours of 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. Noise-sensitive Land Uses Noise is particularly problematic when noise-sensitive land uses are proximate to the noise. Because Vernon predominantly consists of industrial uses and because policy set forth in the Housing Element prohibits the construction of any new housing in Vernon in recognition of the hazards - including high noise levels associated with widespread industrial activity - these standards discourage any new noise-sensitive use that would be incompatible with the City's industrial focus. However, the adopted 2014-2021 Housing Element included the addition of Housing and Emergency Shelter Overlays. The Housing Overlay supports development of residential units on approximately two acres in the eastern portion of the Planning Area and the Emergency Shelter Overlay supports development of emergency shelters on approximately 1.61 acres in the northwest portion of the Planning Area. The only noise-sensitive land uses currently existing within the City are 31 residential units (as of 2007) and the Vernon City Elementary School. These residences are primarily clustered in three areas: (1) on East Vernon Avenue at Furlong Place, (2) on East Vernon Avenue between Downey Road and Alcoa Avenue, and (3) on Fruitland Avenue west of Downey Road. In addition, there are a few mixed-use residential/commercial land uses on Leonis Boulevard at Soto Street. Vernon City Elementary School is located at the southwest corner of East Vernon Avenue and South Santa Fe Avenue. As noted above, residential neighborhoods in Maywood and Huntington Park abut Vernon. Schools are located near the City boundary as well. According to Figure 4.3-1 (Noise/Land Use Compatibility Matrix (noise standards), exterior noise levels are normally compatible up to 75 dB CNEL for residential use and 65 dB CNEL for school use. Threshold for Determining Significance In the adopted General Plan, the City establishes CNEL standards for noise/land use compatibility. The CNEL standard is up to 65 CNEL for schools and churches, up to 75 CNEL for residences and office uses, and generally up to 80 CNEL or higher for the predominate industrial uses as shown in Figure 4.3-1 (Noise/Land Use Compatibility Matrix (noise standards)). In the Zoning Ordinance, the City sets forth one-hour standards for point-source noise as follows: ' j • 75 dB(A) citywide, except within one-tenth of a mile from any residence or public school; N` ` � Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.3-5 4.3 Noise • Within one-tenth of a mile of residences and schools, 65 dB(A) during day- time hours; and • Within one-tenth of a mile of residences, 60 dB(A) during night-time hours. Any noise source in excess of the standards specified may only be permitted with a Conditional Use Permit, which may only be permitted with a finding that the proposed use will not adversely affect the general welfare as a result of noise. 4.3-6 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Noise 4.3 Figure 4.3-1 Noise/Land Use Compatibility Matrix (noise standards) CNEL, dB Land Use Category 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 Residential- Multi-family, Duplex A A B B B Schools, Churches A A B Office Building, Research & Development, Professional A A A B B Offices, City office Building Commercial Retail, Banks, Restaurants A A A A B B Service Station, Auto Dealership, Manufacturing, A A A A B B Warehousing, Wholesale, Utilities Agriculture A A A A A A A �A CLEARLY COMPATIBLE Specified land use is satisfactory, based upon the assumption that any buildings involved are of normal conventional contruction without any special noise insulation requirements. NORMALLY COMPATIBLE New construction or development should be undertaken only after detailed analysis of the noise reduction requirements is made and needed noise insulation features in the design are determined. Conventional construction, with closed windows and fresh air supply systems or air conditioning, will normally suffice. NORMALLY INCOMPATIBLE New construction or development should generally be discouraged. If new construction or development does proceed, a detailed analysis of noise reduction requirements must be made and needed noise insulation features included in the design. CLEARLY INCOMPATIBLE New construction or development should generally not be undertaken. Environmental Impact As discussed in Section 3.0 (Project Description) of this Supplemental EIR, updated General Plan land use policy permits the establishment of housing on 52nd Place between King Avenue and Mayflower Avenue in the southeastern portion of the Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.3-7 4.3 Noise City. With regard to the future establishment of other noise-sensitive uses such as hospitals, day-care facilities, and private schools, the Zoning Ordinance specifically prohibits these uses. The City has no jurisdiction regarding the placement of public schools within Vernon, but generally the City discourages such uses due to the industrial nature of the community. The certified EIR indicated that long-term implementation of land use policy is anticipated to result in a decline in the amount of industrial building space citywide by approximately 1.2 million square feet over the life of the General Plan. The decline will occur generally because new development will be required to meet current parking and loading standards. Older buildings that currently cover entire lots will be replaced with more modern development projects that provide sufficient off-street parking and loading facilities. The General Plan Noise Element includes the noise/land use compatibility criteria that will guide decisions regarding the siting of new land uses and protecting existing noise-sensitive uses from excessive noise. Future development projects pursuant to updated General Plan land use policy will be considered compatible with the existing noise environment if the project is deemed to be normally acceptable or conditionally acceptable. Those projects which are determined to be normally acceptable are likely to require no mitigation measures, and those which are conditionally acceptable may be required to incorporate mitigation measures to achieve City standards. Measures may include, for example, noise insulation internal or external to the building, including sound walls or building insulation. To address point-source noise associated with industrial activity, the Zoning Ordinance establishes the following standards: 75 dB(A) citywide, except near any residence or public school; • Within one-tenth of a mile of residences and schools, 65 dB(A) between 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M.; and • Within one-tenth of a mile of residences, 60 dB(A) between 10:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M. Per the Zoning Ordinance, any noise source in excess of the standards specified may only be permitted with a Conditional Use Permit, which may only be permitted with a finding that the proposed use will not adversely affect the general welfare as a result of noise. Land Use Compatibility and Projected Future Noise Levels Noise contour modeling was performed during preparation of the certified General Plan EIR based on projected future regional traffic volumes and rail activity to determine future noise conditions. Exhibit 4.3-3 (Future CNEL Contours) illustrates the projected future noise contours for Vernon. As the Exhibit shows, the highest noise levels — up to 80 CNEL — are anticipated to occur around the Hobart rail yard, along Alameda Street, along Santa Fe Avenue between Vernon Avenue and 37th Street, along Soto Street north of Vernon Avenue, and along Bandini Avenue and 4.3-8 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Noise 4.3 Atlantic Boulevard north of the Los Angeles River. These increases are anticipated due to the anticipated increase in regional truck and vehicle traffic utilizing these surface streets. The focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update establishes a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay and replaces and expands the existing Commercial Overlay with the new C-1 and C-2 Commercial Overlays. Development pursuant to focused update will result in continued industrial use throughout the community, with provision for commercial uses along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Soto Street north of Fruitland Avenue, East Slauson Avenue, and select areas at the eastern boundary of the Vernon to meet the needs of the daytime employee population. The noise/land use compatibility criteria indicate that such uses are classified as normally compatible in environments with a CNEL of up to 80. Vernon General Plan land use policy and Zoning Ordinance strictly limit any new noise- sensitive uses (for example, residences, schools, day-care facilities, hospitals) into the City, except for residences in the Housing Overlay, which are subject to a Development Agreement. A Development Agreement will allow tailored development standards to be applied to proposed residential projects, thereby providing flexibility in responding to the unique land use conditions in Vernon. In addition, the certified EIR established Mitigation Measures N-1 and N-2. Mitigation Measure N-1 requires that the City continue to enforce noise regulations and to periodically evaluate regulations for adequacy and revision as needed. Mitigation Measure N-2 requires the review of all development proposals and building permits to determine whether the proposed use has the potential to exceed City noise standards. An acoustical analysis is required for all developments with the potential to exceed noise standards and for uses near existing residences and schools. All mitigation measures included in the certified EIR are applicable to the proposed focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update. Thus, consistent with the certified EIR, the City does not anticipate that any new noise/land use conflicts within Vernon will arise over the life of this General Plan update. In this regard, impact will be less than significant and consistent with the findings of the certified EIR. Industrial Noise and Ground-borne Vibrations In general, existing noise and vibration conditions associated with industrial activity within Vernon are not considered excessive because of the predominantly industrial nature of the City. As stated in the certified EIR, implementation of land use policy and zoning regulations will allow potentially noise-intensive industrial businesses to locate adjacent or in close proximity to existing residences in Vernon, Vernon City Elementary School, and residences and public schools in adjacent jurisdictions. Impact would primarily result from noise generated by loading dock operations, trucks entering and leaving the area, mechanical equipment located both inside and outside the building(s), and outdoor industrial activity. Implementation of zoning regulations that establishes one-hour standard of 65 dB(A) between 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. within one-tenth mile of any residence or public school in Vernon or adjacent communities. In addition, a conditional use permit for any use that has the potential to generate excessive noise is required for any use within one-tenth Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.3-9 4.3 Noise mile of a residence or public school. The certified EIR determined that implementation of these regulations will allow the City to mitigate any potential impacts associated with individual projects on a case-by-case basis and reduce impact to level considered less than significant. The focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update establishes a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay and replaces and expands the existing Commercial Overlay with the new C-1 and C-2 Commercial Overlays. Potential new commercial uses along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Soto Street, and East Slauson Avenue will be located in close proximity to existing industrial, residential, and school use. Consistent with the certified EIR, implementation of zoning regulations will require potential impacts to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. In addition, implementation of certified EIR Mitigation Measures N-1 and N-2 will reduce impacts to less than significant levels. With regard to ground-borne vibrations, Vernon is a predominately industrial city with uses that involve industrial processes that produce vibrations measurable beyond the property line. As stated in the certified EIR, Article IV, Section 26.4.1-6 of the Zoning Ordinance addresses such vibrations and guards against one business adversely impacting another. The certified EIR determined that impacts related to ground-borne vibrations will be less than significant. Consistent with the certified EIR, Article IV, Section 26.4.1-6 of the Zoning Ordinance will apply to future use pursuant to the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update. Thus, impact will be less than significant and consistent with the findings of the certified EIR. Mitigation Measures The following mitigation measures were incorporated with the certified General Plan EIR and remain applicable to the proposed General Plan update. Noise Regulations. Continue to enforce City noise regulations MITIGATION contained in the Zoning Ordinance to protect residents and N-1 school children from excessive noise levels associated with stationary noise sources. Periodically evaluate regulations for adequacy and revise, as needed, to address community needs and changes in legislation and technology. Siting of New Businesses and Activities near Sensitive MITIGATION Land Uses. Review all development proposals and building N-2 permits within the City to determine whether the proposed use has the potential to exceed City one-hour noise standards. The City's standards are lower at locations near existing residences and schools. As appropriate, require acoustical analyses for all such development and activities near such uses, and determine if mitigation measures are required. Require property and 4.3-10 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Noise 4.3 business owners to implement mitigation to achieve City noise standards. Level of Impact after Mitigation Incorporation Consistent with the certified EIR, impacts will be less than significant at the program level with implementation of mitigation, General Plan policies, and regulatory requirements.

The Initial Study concluded that adoption and long- term implementation of the Vernon General Plan update does not have the potential to result in a change in air traffic patterns, substantially increase hazards due to a design feature or incompatible uses, result in ina dequate emergency access, or conflict with alternative transportation strategies. The traffic analysis prepared by Kunzman Associates (Appendix C) focuses on the ability of the City's roadways to accommodate long-term traffic volumes associated with growth due to the adoptio n of the Truck Overla y (and the previously adopted Residential Overlay), as compared to the analysis provided in the certified General Plan EIR. The impact discu ssion provided herein also includes analysis of th e addition of the expanded Commercial Overlay district. The approach to the traffic analysis first involved identifying conditions on local roadways based on extensive citywide traffic counts obtained in February 2012 and October 2012. Future roadway volumes for the 2035 horizon year were projected using an annual growth factor of 0.5 percent per year. Those intersection s that were identified in the certified General Plan EIR as operating at unacceptable levels were analyzed to d etermine if the add ition of the various overlays would further degrade performance in these areas. Two primary measures were used to evaluate the existing and planned capacity of the existing and planned road way system within the Plannin g Area: volume and capacity. As noted, current volumes were established via traffic counts, and future volumes reflect projections. Capacity refers to the vehicle-carrying ability of a roadway at free-flow speed. The ratio b etween volume and capacity (V/C) is use d to establish a I evel of service (LOS) for roadway facilities. LOS is a qualitative description of traffic operations for roadway facilities. LOS A indicates free flow conditions with little or no delay. LOS F indicates a high level of delay with severe congestion. LOS C indica tes moderate delay. LOS D indicates marginally acceptable traffic o perations in urban areas. The thresh old of LO S E is the theoretical capacity of the street or intersection. Analysis of the arterial road system wa s conducted using the intersection capacity approach since intersections are the prim ary limiting factor within th e roadway system. Levels of service for arterial roadway intersections are determined based on operating conditions during the A.M. and P.M. peak hours. The int ersection capacity utilization (ICU) methodology is applied using pe ak-hour volumes and considers the geometric configuration of intersections when measuring capacity. The ICU method sum s the V/C ratio s for the critical movements of an intersection and is generally compatible with the intersection capacity analysis methodology outlined in the 2000 Highway Capacity Manual. Table 4.4-1 summarizes ICU ranges and corresponding LOS descriptions. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.4-1 4.4 Transportation and Traffic Table 4.4-1 Arterial Intersection Performance Criteria ICU Level of Service (LOS) 0.70 - 0.79 C 0.80 - 0.89 D 0.90 - 1.00+ E/F Source: Kunzman Associates 2012 Environmental Setting Roadway System Vernon is centrally located within the Los Angele s metropolitan area, with ready access to the freeway network and regional rail lines. Interstate 710 (I-710) runs along the City's eastern boundary, providing direct access to the po its of Long Beach and Los Angeles. Appro ximately one mile north of Vernon is the I -10, I-5, State Route 60 (SR 60) interchange. I-110 is approximately two and one-half miles to the we st, and I-105 is a pproximately four miles south of the City. These freeways connect to numerous other freeways in the region, including the I-405, I- 605, SR-60, SR-91, and US 101. Vernon's street system is differentia ted by roadway size, function, and capacity. The four basic types of roadways in Vernon are freeways, arterial streets, collector streets, and local streets. The assignment of these classifications to streets in the City is sh own on the Circulation Plan i n Exhibit 4.3-1 (Circulation Plan). Major arterials traversing the City in clude Alameda Street, Atlantic Boulevard, Bandini Boulevard/37th Street, Pacific Boulevard, Santa Fe Avenue, Slauson Avenue, and Soto Street. Collector streets in the City include Fruitland Avenue, Leonis Boulevard/District Boulevard, Vernon Avenue, 51s' Street, and 26 t" Street. Cumulatively, these roadways carry the majority of traffic in the Cit y, much of which is through traffic. As noted, I-710 provides an important direct connection from regional rail facilities to the ports of Long Bea ch and Los Angeles. Although less than half a mile of thi s freeway traverses Vernon, that portion conta ins the very busy Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard interchange. This frequently congested in terchange carries a substantial amount of truck traffic from Vernon, particularly from the adjacent Hobart Rail Yard. I n August of 2004, the Gatew ay Cities Council of Governments made preliminary recommendations to improve the At lantic/Bandini interchange, as well as to build tru ck ramps directly from the rail ya rds to the freeway. Engineering plans and studies for this interchange will continue in concert with broader plans for improvements to I-710, with expected improvements to the interchange to be accomplished prior to 2030. The timing will depend upon State approvals and fund ing. Once implemented, the interchange improvements are expected to relieve a major traffic b ottleneck and improve safety by separating autos from heavy truck traffic. 4.4-2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Transportation and Traffic 4.4 Railroads Railroads in and through Vern on include several rail lines, many with at-grade railroad crossings located throughout the City that affect traffic flow. Several rail yards are also located within the City limits. The largest is the Hobart Rail Ya rd located to the northeast, between East 26th Street and East Washington Boulevard. Two other smaller yards are the Malabar Yard, located north of Fruitland and east of Pacific Boulevard, and the Los Angeles Junction Yard, locate d between Exchange Boulevard and the Los Angeles River. A po rtion of the Union Pacif is East Yard is also located in Ve rnon, with other rail yards nearby but outside of Vernon city limits. Public Transit Public transit, primarily functioning as an alternative mode of transportation to and from the workplace, is available in Vernon. The City is serve d by a number of b us routes operated by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro). These bus routes run on Soto Street, Vernon/Pacific, Santa Fe Avenue, and Vernon/Leonis, and also Downey/Vernon/Boyle. In add ition, the Montebello Municipal Bus Line provides a route that runs on Washington Boulevard with stops at Atlantic and at Downey. The Metro Rail Blue Line light rail syste m has a station at Vernon and Alameda, which is located approximately one-quarter mile west of the City boundary. Existing Traffic Conditions In 2012, an extensive turning movement and traffic count collection program was undertaken at key intersections in the City of Vernon. Intersection capacity was studied at peak hours. To assess intersection capacity, turning movement volumes at a total of 17 intersections in the City were counted during morning (7:00 AM to 9:00 AM) and evening peak periods (4:00 PM to 6:00 PM). A passenger car eq uivalent (PCE) factor of 2.5 was applied to tru ck turning movements. The PCE factor reflects the fact that heavy trucks not only occupy two to three times as much physical space as passenger cars and pickup trucks, but they also take two to three times as long as passenger vehicles to accelerate and, therefore, have a greater impact on the roadway capacity. The PCE factor used in the traffic analysis was derived from industry standards of 2.0 PCE for large two- axle trucks and 3.0 PCE for three or more axle trucks. Peak-hour intersection capacity utilization (ICU) values fo r existing conditions are summarized in Table 4.4-2. Peak-hour turning movement volumes are illustrated, and ICU calculation worksheets are shown in the traffic study in Appendix C. As the table indicates, fifteen study intersections operate at LOS E or F and the remaining two operate at acceptable levels during the AM and PM peak hours.

Conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance or policy establishing measures of effectiveness for the performance of the circulation system, taking into account all modes of transportation including mass transit and non-motorized travel and relevant components of the circulation system, including but not limited to intersections, streets, highways and freeways, pedestrian and bicycle paths, and mass transit; B. Conflict with an applicable congestion management program, including, but not limited to level of service standards and travel d emand measures, or 4.4-4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Transportation and Traffic 4.4 other standards established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways; The City of Vernon has established an intersection capacity performance standard of 0.90 for peak-hour intersection operation impacts. This standard means that an intersection is operating at 90 percent of its capacity, corresponding to LOS D, is acceptable. If the project we re to cause an intersection to operate at LOS E or F, that would be considered a significant impact. In addition, based on the Los Angeles Department of Tran sportation Policies and Procedures, an impact is considered significant if the project-related increase in the V/C ratio increases by 0.04 or more for LOS C intersections, by 0.02 for LOS D intersections, and 0.01 for LOS E and F intersections. Environmental Impacts Impacts 4.4.A and 4.4.113 Circulation System Performance The certified Gene ral Plan E IR found that impacts to the local and regional circulation system would be significant and unavoidable. The certified General Plan EIR analysis identifies physical improvements to a number of roadways that will improve local and regional traffic flow including the 26 t" Street exten sion, the Atlantic Boulevard Bridge widening, the Soto Street widening, and Interstate 710 improvements. The certifie d General Plan EIR also references Circulation an d Infrastructure Element Policy CI-1.12 and Mitigation Measure T-1 that recommends installation and maintenance of an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) such as the Los Angeles County Automated Traffic Surveillance and Control (ATSAC) system that will improve traffic flow. Implementation of these improvements is anticipated to increase circulation system performance at the maj ority of i ntersections excluding Santa Fe at 381", Soto at Fruitland, and Atlantic at Bandini. Mitigation was also incorporated to further reduce potential circulation system impacts related to coordinating with adjacent jurisdictions, agencies, and rail companies minimizing parking interference. Due to the lack o f right-of-way to make addition al physical improvements, lack of local control over regional system elements, and uncertainty in funding, impacts to the loca I and regional circulation system remain significant and unavoidable after consideration of General Plan policies and incorporation of mitigation. The traffic study pre pared for this Supplemental EIR includes updated analysis of the existing General Plan and the General Plan update based on existing conditions (2012) through 2 035.1 Impacts fro m the inclusion of the propo sed Truck and Freight Overlay (and the recently adopted Housing Element Residential Overla y) can then be compared to the analysis provided in the certified General Plan EIR to determine if impacts will be equal to or less than those determined in the analysis. Additionally, a qualitative discussion of the expanded Commercial Overlay has been included. The Slaughtering and Rendering Overlays are not discussed because trip generation from the se uses is the same as the underlying Industrial land use designation. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.4-5 4.4 Transportation and Traffic Truck and Freight Overlay Table 4.4-3 (Year 2 035 Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) Summary) includes updated projections for 2035 based on cu rrent (2012) Gen eral Plan a nd Zoning development assumptions to u pdate what intersections are already projected to operate at unacceptable levels without the proposed updates. Of particular no te, one intersection (Alameda and Vernon west) would be projected to operate at LOS E or F in 2035 at one or more peak hour periods that was not previously projected to operate at LOS E or F in 2030 at any period. At some intersections, the proposed update will improve peak hour tr affic conditions in 2035 when compared to the current General Plan traffic for 2035. The traffic analysis indicates that the pr oposed Truck and Freight O verlay will not significantly increase impacts at any of the study intersections because the volume- capacity ratio will not increase by 0.02 at any LOS D intersections or by 0.01 at any LOS E or LOS F intersections. Therefore, impacts will remain consistent with the analysis provided in the certified General Plan EIR as significant and unavoidable after consideration of General Plan policy and mitigation incorporation. 4.4-6 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Transportation and Traffic 4.4 Table 4.4-3 Year 203S Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) Summary Current Proposed Project General Plan General Plan Impact from Peak 203S 203S 203S 203S Current ID# I Intersection Hour V/C LOS V/C LOS GP Alameda Street NS Vernon Avenue - West (EW) Morning 1.617 F 1.617 F 0.000 1a Evening 1.671 F 1.671 F 0.000 Vernon Avenue - East (EW) Morning 1.217 F 1.217 F 0.000 1b Evening 1.317 F 1.317 F 0.000 55th Street - West (EW) Morning 1.482 F 1.482 F 0.000 2a Evening 1.692 F 1.692 F 0.000 55th Street - East (EW) Morning 0.811 D 0.811 D 0.000 2b Evening 1.153 D 1.153 D 0.000 Santa Fe Avenue NS 25th/26th Street (EW) Morning 0.986 E 0.988 E 0.002 3 Evening 1.124 F 1.125 F 0.001 38th Street (EW) Morning 1.059 F 1.055 F -0.004 4 Evening 1.121 F 1.119 F -0.002 Vernon Avenue (EW) Morning 1.077 F 1.076 F -0.001 5 Evenin 1.022 F 1.018 F -0.004 Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.4-7 4.4 Transportation and Traffic Current Proposed Project General Plan General Plan Impact from Peak 2035 2035 2035 2035 Current ID# Intersection Hour V/C LOS V/C LOS GP Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard (EW) Morning 1.017 F 1.017 F 0.000 6 Evening 1.061 F 1.062 F 0.001 Soto Street NS 26th Street (EW) Morning 1.118 F 1.127 F 0.009 7 Evening 1.311 F 1.134 F -0.177 Bandini Boulevard (EW) Morning 1.053 F 1.060 F 0.007 8 Evening 1.111 F 1.111 F 0.000 Vernon Avenue (EW) Morning 0.953 E 0.953 F 0.000 9 Evening 1.050 F 1.050 F 0.000 Leonis Boulevard (EW) Morning 0.969 E 0.969 E 0.000 10 Evening 0.899 D 0.899 D 0.000 Fruitland Avenue (EW) Morning 0.891 D 0.891 D 0.000 11 Evenin 0.973 E 0.973 E 0.000 Boyle Avenue NS Slauson Avenue (EW) Morning 1.199 F 1.199 F 0.000 12 Evening 1.335 F 1.334 F -0.001 Downey Road (NS Washington Boulevard (EW) 13 Morning 0.960 E 0.963 E 0.003 4.4-8 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Transportation and Traffic 4.4 Current Proposed Project General Plan General Plan Impact from Peak 2035 2035 2035 2035 Current ID# Intersection Hour V/C LOS V/C LOS GP Evening 1.019 F 1.019 F 0.000 Bandini Boulevard (EW) Morning 0.998 E 1.002 F 0.004 14 Evening 1.043 F 1.048 F 0.005 Slauson Avenue (EW) Morning 1.079 F 1.081 F 0.002 15 Evening 1.075 F 1.073 F -0.002 Atlantic Boulevard NS Bandini Boulevard (EW) Morning 1.717 F 1.725 F 0.008 16 Evening 1.594 F 1.598 F 0.004 District Boulevard (EW) Morning 0.949 E 0.952 E 0.003 17 Evening 1.081 F 1.080 F -0.001 Source: Kunzman Associates 2012 Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.4-9 4.4 Transportation and Traffic 4.4-10 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Transportation and Traffic 4.4 Commercial Overlay The project includes an increase in the Commercial Overlay district from 210 acres to 453 acres. The Commercial Ove rlay district has also been furth er refined through the C-1 a nd C-2 Overlay Zones. The Commercial Overlay district is intended to provide opportunities for service and retail uses th at support surrounding industrial uses. It must be emphasized that the Commercial Overlay district is not intended nor anticipated to substantially convert industrial uses to commercial uses. The Com mercial Overlay district and associated zoning is designed to establish use a nd development standards for future commercial development but is not designed to encou rage or increase commercial development. The entirety of the Planning Area is planned to remain industrial over the long-term. Commercial uses generate substantially more traffic than industrial uses. Based on the Institute of Transpo rtation Engineer's (IT E) Trip Generation manual, warehousing and manufacturing uses generate 3.56 to 3.82 daily trips per 1 ,000 square feet of building area, respectively, and without consideration of PCE factors." Common commercial development that co uld be constructed in the Commercial Overlay district such as strip retail, shopping centers, gas stations, and fast food establishments generate between 39.00 and 845.60 daily trips per 1,000 square feet. Commercial development accounts fo r approximately 1.4 percen t of the development in the Planning Area (4 0 acres / 2,948 acres = 1.3 6 percent). Commercial development over the long-term is a nticipated to remain at similar levels, considering the proposed General Plan update supports primarily industrial uses. Therefore, commercial development will not generate a substantial amount of traffic when compared to the Planning Area as a whole, even after consideration of the in crease in trip gen eration rates. Furthermore, future commercial developments will be subject to environ mental review pursuant to th e California Environmental Quality Act (CE QA). Fut ure commercial development that could significantly affect the local and/or regional circulation system will be required to incorporate mitigation, where feasible, to eliminate, reduce, or minimize project- level traffic impacts. Consid ering the relatively small a mount of long-te rm commercial development anticipated in the Planning Area and th a standard environmental review requirements of the City, impacts to the loca I and regional circulation system due to the expansion of the Commercial Overlay district will not be substantial when compared to the analysis provided in the certified General Plan EIR. Impacts remain significant and unavoidable. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.4-11 4.4 Transportation and Traffic Mitigation Measures The following mitigation measures were incorporated with the certified General Plan EIR and remain applicable to the proposed General Plan update. Automated Traffic Surveillance and Control System MITIGATION (ATSAC). Conduct a study to determine if ATSAC would be a T-1 _ beneficial and cost-effective system for the City to operate and maintain. Coordinate with Adjacent Jurisdictions. Continue to MITIGATION coordinate intersection maintenance and improvements with T-2 adjacent jurisdictions so that intersections along Soto Street, Pacific Boulevard, Slauson Avenue, Alameda Street, Atlantic Boulevard, Bandini Boulevard, and Downey Road o perate at an acceptable Level of Service. Coordinate with Rail Companies. Coordinate with railroad MITIGATION companies in removing obsolete rail spurs. Work to minimize T-3 traffic impacts to City streets from trucks using Hobart Yard facilities and other multi-modal transportation yards. MOOMMIL Coordination with Metropolitan Transportation Authority. MITIGATION I Work with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) to T-4 achieve the following: - Implement the Metro's Congestion Management Plan (CMP) within the City. - Continue to provide local and regional connections through Metro local and rapid bus lines. - Improve access to local Metro stations. MOMMOOL Minimize Parking Impacts. Work with businesses to develop MITIGATION creative strategies a nd solutions to address parkin g shortages. T-5 Require new development projects to meet th e minimum parking standards in the Zoning Ordinance for both trucks a nd automobiles, including truck trailer storage, employee parking, and visitor parking. Soto Street Widening. At the time properties along Soto MITIGATION Street are redeveloped or as otherwise dictated by City plans for T-6 the widening of Soto Street, require the dedication of rights-of- way to achieve the road standard for Soto Street established in 4.4-12 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Transportation and Traffic 4.4 the Circulation and Infrastructure Element. Complete the road widening project at the time a dequate rights-of-way have been acquired and/or dedicated. Interstate 710 Freeway Improvements. Work with Caltrans MITIGATION on all pla ns, activities, and p rojects regarding Interstate 710 T-7 that may directly impact Vernon's roadway facilities and traffic patterns. Coordinate with t he Gateway Cities Council o f Governments and Southern California Association of Governments on studie s and programs regarding the improvements to the I-710 freeway. Other Improvements. At Santa Fe Avenue and 38 th Street, MITIGATION stripe an eastbound left-turn lane within existing right-of-way to T-8 provide additional intersection capacity. Level of Impact after Mitigation Impacts to the to cal and regional (Con gestion Management Program) circulation system remain significant and unavoidable after mitigation incorporation.

The Initial Study co ncluded that the adoption and long-term implementation of the Vernon General Plan update does not have the potential to exceed wastewater treatment requirements, require the construction or expansion of w ater, wastewater, or storm water drainage facilities. Implementation of t he General Plan upd ate will also have a dequate capacity to serve the projected demand and comply with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations related to solid waste. The In itial Study indicated that impacts related to water supply sufficiency and landfill capacity could be potentially significant and have been analyzed herein.

A portion of the northeast part of the City, however, receives wate r service from the California Water Service Company (Cal Water), and a small area in the southeast part of Verno n has water delivered by Ma ywood Mutual Water Company Number 3.1 The Water Department of the City of Vernon receives 63 percent of its primary potable water supp Iy from local water, with the balance consisting of impo rted water and recycled water. At the time the certified General Plan EIR was prepared, the 2005 Urban Water Management Plan was referenced. Since then, the 2010 Urban Water Management Plan for Vernon has been prepared. As of 2010, the City received approximately 84 percent of its water supply from local groundwater and approximately 8 percent from the Central Basin Municipal Water District (CBMWD).Z Potable water is sold and distributed to Vernon by the CBMWD, a public agency that acts as a wholesaler to retail water agencies consisting of 24 cities in southeast Los Angeles County. The CBMWD, in turn, p urchases its water from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD), which is the major supplier for Southern California. The City's water distribution syste m consists of 250,000 linear feet of pipe, ni ne wells, seven ground -level reservoirs, one elevated tank, and a below-groun d reservoir. The tot al storage capacity is 16 million gallons. Vernon's direct interconnection to the MWD provides both a supplemental water source and an emergency supply in the event of a major power outage. The averag e pressure in the distribution systems is about 75 pounds per square inch (psi). Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 4.5-1 4.5 Utilities and Service Systems Cal Water's East Los Angeles District serves residential, industrial, and commercial customers, including all of unincorporated East Los Angeles as well as portions of the cities of Commerce, Montebello, Monterey Park, and Vernon. That portion of Vernon within Cal Water's jurisd iction consists of the area north of the Los Angeles River and east of a line parallel to and approximately 450 feet west of Indiana Street. This area is dominated by Burlington Northern Santa Fe's Hobart Rail Yard. In 2003, industrial uses accounted for only 126 users, or 0.5 percent, of Cal Water's East Los Angeles District service connections, although be cause of the higher demand per connection for industrial customers, these industrial uses accounted for 2,000.6 total acre-feet (9.7 percent) used district-wide during the year. Vernon's share of water usage in the District constitutes an unknown but significant fraction of these industrial connections. During the ten-year period from 1994 to 20 03, total water demand in the District ro se an average of 0.28 percent annually, while industrial water demand in the District fell an average of 1.84 percent each year. Water furnished to customers of Cal Water's East Los A ngeles District is a combination of groundwater and purchased water imported from the Central Basin Municipal Water District. On average, purchased water satisfies 70 to 80 percent of the District's water requirements, with the balance supplied by groundwater from Cal Water's wells. Cal Water's existing supplies and facilities in the East Los Angele s District are adequate to provide for projected demand through the year 2030. The 2010 Urban Water Management Plan for Cal Water's East Los Angeles District indicates th at existing supplies and facilities will be adequate to provide for projected demand through the year 2040. 3 In addition, according to the 2010 UWMP, Cal Wa ter intends to construct new wells in order to maximize groundwater production in the future. The District recognizes that its wells are no longer sufficient to produce its entire allowed pumping allocation, so it is actively pursuing plans to restore several wells to their full capacity and developing a new well to add capacity. The Maywood Mutual Water Company #3 covers only small portions of the cities of Maywood, Bell, and Vernon. In total, Maywood Mutual #3 has approximately 2,000 service connections serving approximately 9,500 residents, along with som e commercial and industrial customers. Maywood Mutual #3 has 30 service connections in Vernon, all industrial, which in 2006 used approximately 35 acre-feet of water. In 2007, Matheson Tri-Gas opened a plant in this area that was projected to use an additional 150 acre-feet per year of water, but since opening has actually used much less. Thus, the demand is projected to be 30 a cre-feet per year based on usage from actual data from 2007. In total, then, the part of Vernon within Maywood Mutual Water Company #3 is projected to use 65 acre-feet of water per yea r. Maywood Mutual #3 obtains all of its water supplies from three groundwater wells located in Maywood and Bell. Together these three wells produce approximately 1,500 acre-feet of water per year, although the exact amount fluctuates between about 1,400 acre-feet and 1,750 acre-feet per year, depe nding on demand. If 4.5-2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Utilities and Service Systems 4.5 necessary, these wells could pump as much as 4,500 acre-feet per year. Currently, Maywood Mutual #3 purchases no water fro m outside source s, but has an agreement in place that would allow it to purchase up to 2,500 acre -feet of water per year from MWD. If Maywood Mutual #3 were to produce water at the maximum rate as well as purchase the maximum amount from outside sources, it could supply as much as 7,500 acre-feet of water in a year, more than four times current demand. Groundwater produ ction is adequate to meet the current and projected demands of Maywood Mutual Water Company #3. Solid Waste Solid waste generated within Vernon is collected by a variety of private companies. The City does not provide solid waste collection services; businesses and residents must contract for t heir own waste dis posal. City staff monitors solid waste generation, diversion, and disposal to help the City co mply with state-mandated waste reduction goals. City staff also provides assistance to companies interested in recycling or reducing waste. In total, businesses in Vernon generated 258,365 tons of waste for disposal in the various landfills identified in Table 4. 5-1 (Solid Waste Disposal Facilities Used by Vernon Waste Contractors, 2005). Additionally, the Refuse-to-Energy Facility in the city of Commerce received 1,806 tons of waste from Vernon to be converted into energy.

City of Palmdale. December 2005. Other sites: California Integrated Waste Management Board, 2007. As indicated in the table, all but two of the 12 landfills have scheduled closure dates within the time frame of the General Plan update, although Orange County is currently moving forward with expansion plans for b oth the Bowerman and Olinda Alpha landfills, which would extend the capacities and effective lives of these facilities. Throughout California and in urban areas in particular, diminishing landfill space is a continuing concern. In response, the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (AB 939) was passed, mandating local governments to develop a long-term strategy for the management and diversion of solid waste, and requiring cities and counties to divert 50 pe rcent of their solid waste (relative to the baseline year). According to the Sta to Integrated Waste Management Board, Vernon diverte d 57 percent of its waste in 2002. The estimated diversion rate for 2003 is 56 percent, and 53 percent for 2004. Thresholds for Determining Significance For the purpose of this Su pplemental EIR, a signi ficant impact will occur if implementation of the project would: A. Not have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project from existing entitlements and resources, or new or expanded entitlements needed. B. Not be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to accommodate the project's solid waste disposal needs. Environmental Impacts Impact 4.5.A Water Supply The certified General Plan EIR found that impacts re lated to sufficient water supply will be less than significant. The certified General Plan EIR analysis indicates that new development will replace older, less efficient buildings in the built out city with modern buildings using more efficient plu mbing fixtures. In additio n, implementation of the previous General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance would result in a decrease in overall building square footage citywide of 1.2 million square feet. The certified General Plan EIR determined that because the future mix of land uses will be similar, older buildings will be replaced by newer more efficient 4.5-4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Utilities and Service Systems 4.5 buildings, and there is an anticipated 1.2 million square foot decrease in development, future demand for domestic water is not anticipated to increase beyond current levels. The certified General Plan EIR references the City's 2005 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP). According to the 2005 UWMP, by 202 5 the number of acre -feet produced from wells is not e xpected to increase substantially, and th a amount purchased from CBMWD is e xpected to increase from 3, 350 acre-feet to 4,35 0 acre-feet. By 2025, Vernon's water supply profile is projected to be 28.3 percent from groundwater, 15.3 pe rcent from CBMWD, and 56.4 p ercent from recycled sources. According to the 2010 UWMP, by 2035, Vernon's water supply profile is project to be 36.7 percent from groundwater, 9.8 percen t from CBW MD, and 53.5 perce nt from recycled sources. Total projected supply in the normal year, single dry year, and multiple d ry year scenarios exceed projected demand within Vernon.4 Therefore, impacts will remain consistent with the analysis provided in the certified General Plan EIR as less than significant. Impact 4.5.113 Solid Waste The certified General Plan EIR found that impacts related to landfill capacity will be less than significant. Overall development in Vernon will decrease by approximately 1.2 million square fe et over th e life of the certifie d General Plan upd ate. The certified General Plan EIR determined that the mix of future u ses is expected to be similar to existing conditions. Due to the anticipated decrease in the total amount of development in Vernon, solid waste generation is not expected to change. According to the Cal Recycle So lid Waste Characterization Database, retail/service/commercial uses can generate up to 3.3 tons per employee per year of solid waste. Manufacturing uses can generate up to 3.1 tons per employee per year. Although the disposal rate for reta it/service/commercial uses is higher tha n that of manufacturing, the Southern California Association of Government's (SCAG) Employment Density Study shows that for Los Angeles County, the averag e employees per square foot of retail, service, and office uses are lower than that of manufacturing uses.s Therefo re, with the additio n of th e commercial overlay, future commercial development will replace older manufacturing and industrial uses, reducing the amount of solid waste generated by the City as a whole. Impacts will remain consistent with the analysis provided in the certified General Plan EIR as less than significant. Mitigation Measures Impacts will be I ess than sign ificant at the programmatic and individual pro�ect levels, and no mitigation is required.

The im pacts associated with each alternative are compared to the impacts of the prop osed project. Because the analysis in th e certified EIR indicates that project-related significant impacts can be fully mitigated and that unavoidable significant impacts result from cumulative considerations (project impacts combined with growth activity in the region), the range of alternatives is limited. The analysis and conclusions contained in this Supplemental EIR is consistent with that of the certified EIR. Therefore, this section will evaluate the same alternatives. Alternatives evaluated in this EIR are: • Alternative 1: No Project/Existing General Plan (required by Section 15126.6[e] of the CEQA Guidelines) • Alternative 2: Additional railway/roadway grade separations • Alternative 3: Zoning Ordinance provisions that allow warehousing facilities of less than 50,000 square feet citywide • Alternative 4: No truck and freight terminal overlay Alternative Project Location Section 15126.6(f)(2) states that an EIR should determine whether some or all of the project significant effects could be avoided or substantially lessened by siting the project at an alternative location. Because the subject project encompasses the entire City of Vernon and unincorporated properties within the planning area, a n alternative location does not represent a feasible project alternative; this alternative is therefore dismissed from further consideration. Alternatives Considered but Rejected In the course of identifying project alternatives during preparation of the certified EIR, the City co nsidered but rejected from further consideration the widening of Santa Fe Avenue throughout the City. The City rejected the widening of Santa Fe Avenue as a feasible alternative because almost all buildings along this key corridor have been constructed to the front property line. Acquisition of additional rights-of- way would involve the removal or significant narrowing of sidewalks a nd possibly removal of buildings. This action would create unsafe conditions along one of the roadways in the City where commercial business activity is to be focused to support the needs of the worker population; the alternative is therefore rejected. A second alternative considered but rejected as infeasible is the widening of Soto Street along its entire stre tch through Vernon. The Circulation and Infrastructure Element already provides for increased road width along Soto Street from Bandini Boulevard to the north City limit. Spec ifically, the So to Street/26th Street intersection would be impro ved to increase capacity. Similar to Santa Fe Avenu e, portions of Soto Street south of Bandini Boulevard have buildings constructed to the Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 5.0-1 5.0 Alternatives front property line. Acquisition of ad ditional rights-of-way would involve th e removal or significant narrowing of sidewalks and possibly removal of buildings. In addition, the focused General Plan a nd Zoning Ordinance update proposes expansion of the commercial overlay to encompass Soto Street north of Fruitland Avenue. Therefore, this a ction would create unsafe conditions along a roadway where commercial activity is to b e focused and involve co stly right-of-way acquisition and therefore is rejected. The City also considered the widening of the two blocks of E. Slauson Avenue that pass through Vernon, between S. Boyle Avenue and the Union Pacific Railroad line, to five or six lanes. Slauson Avenue is a ma jor regional roadway, and any improvements to enhance capacity and traffic movem ent would require coordination among the many cities and Los Angeles County Public Works. While the City supports any regional plans developed to improve this roadway, the traffic study prepared in conjunctio n with the certified EIR concluded that the City's isolated action of addressing the two blocks within Vernon would not achieve measurable local improvements. In addition, the focused Gene ral Plan and Zoning Ordinance update proposes expansion of the commercial overlay to encompass this area. Lastly, the City considered reorienting parallel streets as one-wa y streets to improve traffic flow. However, this alternative was rejected because Vernon's street system lacks an adequate grid structure to allow for such traffic flows to function properly and efficiently. Alternative 1; No Project This alternative is analyzed within the certified EIR and this Supplemental EIR as it is required under CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6(e). According to S ection 15126.6(e)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines, the no project analysis shall discuss, " . . . what is reasonably expected to occur in the fore seeable future if the project were not approved, based on current plans and consistent with available infrastructure and community services." This alternative assu mes that the focused General Plan Zoning Ordinance update would not be adopted and implemented. Instead, th e Vernon planning area would continue to be redeveloped according to the existin g land use map and apply with current zoning regulations as described in the certified EIR. Th e General Plan updated analyzed in the certified EIR included the establishment of a Commercial Overlay District and the elimination of the 2009 Rule requiring all businesses that have nonconforming parking and/or loading facilities to achieve conformity by 2009. The No Project alternative would have resulted in the continued implementation of the 2009 Rule and the General Plan land uses without the Commercial Overlay. In particular, the current Commercial Overlay would remain in effect; the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update would replace the current Commercial Overlay with two expanded C-1 and C -2 Overlays along Santa Fe Aven ue, Pacific Boulevard, Soto Street north of Fruitland Avenue, East Slauson Avenue, and alon the eastern boundary of the City. Also, the No Project alternative would not involve 5.0-2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Alternatives 5.0 establishment of a Truck and Freight Terminal north of 37t" Street west of Downey Road and north of the Los Angeles River east of Downey Road. As discussed in Section 3.0 - P roject Description of this EIR, the focu sed General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update provides for continuation of Ion g-established land use policy and maintaining Vernon as an exclusively industrial city with limited housing and the possibility of commercial. Because the updated General Plan does not provide for any increase in permitted land use intensities, the City assumes that trends over the la st ten ye ars of an actual decline in building squa re footage citywide would continue under either cu rrent General Plan policy or the update d General Plan. Futu re development will result in newer buildings with reduced lot coverage due to setback and parking requirements, consistent with currecnt zoning regulations. Comparison of Impacts to Proposed Project The No Project alternative analyzed in the certified EIR has the potential to accelerate privately initiated reuse a nd redevelopment activity due to the application of the 2009 Rule and thereby, possibly to reduce overall building area in Vernon. The certified EIR determined that depending on the types of development proposed over the long term, reduced development citywide would reduce vehicle trips and associated air emi ssions and decrease demand for pota ble water. Industrial use comprises much of Vern on and the extent of businesses using or storing hazardous materials could be expected to remain, depending upon the individual new uses established over the long term. The certified EIR determined that the overall level of impact could be slightly lower than that associated with the proposed project. The continued application of the 2009 Rule has the potential to improve traffic flow on City streets as on-street loading activity will be prohibited and on-street parking will be minimized due to the enforcement of off-street parking requirements. In this regard, the No Project Alte rnative was considered environmentally superior to the proposed project. With regard to noise impacts, almost all local impacts are associated with regional traffic noise and rail traffic, neither of wh ich would be expected to be a ffected by the No Project scenario. No change in impact would result. The certified Genera I Plan Lan d Use p Ian designates the en tire city a s Industrial with the possibility of commercial within the designated Commercial Overlay. The proposed project includes the expansion and implementatio n of two comm ercial overlay zones and the establishment of a Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone. The focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update does not propose any changes in underlying land use designations or building intensities. Consistent with the certified Gene ral Plan, privately initiated reuse and redevelopment activity would result in overall reduced building area in Vernon with the enforcement of parking and setback requirements. Impacts related to air quality, hazards, noise, Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 5.0-3 5.0 Alternatives traffic, and utilities for the No Project alternative would be equivalent to impacts associated with the proposed project. Alternative 2: Additional Railway/Roadway Grade Separations Many rail lines cross streets in Vernon at grade with frequent train activity between the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach largely serving the Hobart Yard and other regional cargo redistribution facilities. Intense rail activity historically has created rail/roadway conflicts in Vernon. However, as sta ted in the certified EIR, the City has experienced a substantial decrease in rail traffic and associated congestion as a result of the 2002 com pletion of the expressway Alameda Corridor. The key environmental impact identified in the certified EIR was traffic. This alternative as analyzed in the certified EIR considers including specific policies in the General Plan to pursue rail/road grade separations at Bandini Boulevard/Downey Road, Pacific Avenue, Vernon Avenue, and District Boulevard/Downey Road. During preparation of the certified EIR and currently, the C irculation and Infrastructure Element includes the following policy, which is non-specific regarding grade separations to be pursued: POLICY CI-1.6: Continue to pursue grade separation for railroad crossings o n designated streets. Comparison of Impacts to Proposed Project The City has not conducted an analysis of the effects of providing grade separations at the above locations. However, such improvements would have the potential to improve traffic flow and possibly result in reduced air pollutant em issions due to reduced vehicle idling time wh ile waiting for train s to cro ss roadways. With thi s assumption, the certified EIR determ ined that traffic and air quality impa cts associated with Alternative 2 would be expected to be redu ced relative to th e General Plan update. With regard to hazards, in creased grade separations would redu ce the risk o f train/roadway vehicle accidents at thos a locations where separations would be provided. Risk of upset would be slightly reduced. With regard to w ater use and landfill capacity, grade separations would have no effect. With regard to noise impa cts, the relative imp act would depend upon the configuration of the grade separation. Because the grade separation locations cited above all pass through exclusively industrial areas where noise is n of a major concern, the relative noise impacts w ould be equivalent to th ose associated with the project. Train horn noise would be reduced since train crossing would be eliminated. 5.0-4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Alternatives 5.0 With completion of the Alameda Corridor to Los Angeles and ongoing plans for the Alameda Corridor East, which will extend this dedicated freight rail line through the San Gabriel Valley, allowing for freight movement to the Inland Empire, emphasis will continue to be placed on using the Alameda Corridor instead of local rail lines. Based on information City of Vernon staff has received from responsible rail agencies, grade separations in Vernon are no longer being considered. Thus, this alternative may not be achievable during the life of the General Plan update. Impact comparison of Alternative 2 to the proposed focused General Plan an d Zoning Ordinance u pdate is consistent with that of the ce rtified General Plan update. Air quality, hazard, and traffic impacts associated Alternative 2 would be reduced with the inclusion of specific policies to pursue rail/road grade separations compared to the proposed project. Impacts with regard to noise and utilities will be equivalent. As determined by the certified EIR, emphasis will be placed on using the Alameda Corridor instead of local rail lines. Therefore, due to the uncertainty associated with future rail/road grade separation opportunities, this alternative may not be achievable. Alternative 3: Zoning Provisions to Permit Warehousing Citywide At the time of pre paration of the certified EI R, the Zonin g Code did not alto w warehousing facilities to locate throu ghout the City, with the siz e of non- refrigerated warehouses limited to 50,000 square feet. The certified EIR discussed allowing warehouse use less than 50,000 square feet to locate anywhere in the City as Alternative 3. However, sin ce certification of the Program EIR, the zoning co de has been amended to allow warehouse use to locate within the Industrial zon e, which encompasses the entire city. Th erefore, Alternative 3 analyzed in the certified EIR is no longer applicable and will not be discussed further. Alternative 4: No Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay This alternative will consist o f the rem oval of th e Truck a nd Freight Terminal Overlay Zone from the proposed project. The proposed focu sed General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update includes a Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone in the northern portion of Vernon (n orth of 37 th Street a nd the Los Angele s River) to encompass over 1,065 net acres. According to the Vernon Zoning Ordinance, a freight terminal is where goods or freight are transferred or redistributed from one vehicle to another and a truck terminal is used primarily for storage, maintenance, or servicing of highway-type vehicles not limited to trucks and buses. Comparison of Impacts to Proposed Project Elimination of the Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone from th e proposed project has the potential to reduce impacts related to traffic, air quality, and noise. Freight terminals include high turnover of transported goods, resulting in increased and continuous truck trips in the area. Diese I trucks are a major contributor to PM2.5 concentrations, and truck and freight terminal uses could increase the number of diesel trucks on local roads, thereby increa sing the area's PM2.5 concentrations. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 5.0-5 5.0 Alternatives Overall, local and regional air quality impacts would be reduced under th is alternative. Truck and freight to rminal use in Vern on is facilitated by the use o f heavy-duty trucks delivering products to and from the facility. Beca use this is the functional nature of truck and freight terminals and industrial and warehouse uses may not require as much direct tru cking, the impact on the transportation system may b e slightly reduced without the allowan ce of truck a nd freight terminal use in the northern portion of the city. The largest contributor to ambient noise in Vernon is vehicle traffic, especially that of heavy-duty trucks. Additional noise is cr eated at many of the industrial sites in the City. Truck and freight terminal uses will contribute to noise from the delivery system inherent in their operations, with large trucks entering the City for deliveries and pick-ups. On site, most noise is generated by loading dock operations, trucks entering and leaving the area, and mechanical equipment located both inside and outside the building. As truck and freigh t terminal uses may have higher levels of noise on site associated with th e continuous loading and unloading of goods, noise impacts would be slightly red uced without the allowance of truck and freight terminal use. Many industrial facilities in Vernon use and store hazardous materials. Businesses are required to obtain hazardous materials permits for keeping those materials at the business. In the Industrial (I) zon ing district, hazardous waste facilities are permitted subject to a conditional use permit. The uses, w hether warehousing, manufacturing, or truck and freight term inal would be subject to the same local, state, and federal regulations regard ing hazardous materials. Be cause a simila r amount and type of hazardous materials would likely be present in the plannin g area under this alternative, this altern ative would result in a similar impact related to hazards, which is less than significant. Trucking and freight termina I uses are relatively low i mpact on water and s olid waste systems, in comparison to many industrial uses. Industrial uses have the potential to be very water intensive, especially if water is used for cooling in an industrial process. Truck and freight to rminals, in comparison, generally use le ss water. Additionally, because manufacturing does not occur on site with truck and freight terminal uses, the level of wa ste generated would be comparably less. The primary waste pro duct from truck and freight terminal activities is likely to be packaging materials and wa ste from the repa it and maintenance of vehicles. Overall, the impact on utilities (excluding roads) would be slightly increased if truck and terminal uses are not allowed.

The following sections address these issues as they relate to implementation of the City of Vernon General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance. Cumulative Impacts The CEQA Guidelines define cumulative effects as "two or more individual effects that, when considered together, are considerable or which compound or increase other environmental impacts." The C EQA Guidelines further state that th e individual effects can be the variou s changes related to a single project or the changes involved in a number of other closely related past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future projects (Section 15335). The CEQA Guidelines allow for the use of two alternative m ethods to determine the scope of projects for the cumulative impact analysis: List Method - A list of pa st, present, and probable future projects producing related or cumulative impacts, including, if necessary, those projects outside the control of the agency. Regional Growth Projections Method - A summary o f projects contained in an adopted general plan or related plannin g document or in a prior en vironmental document which has been adopted or ce rtified, which described or evaluate d regional or area wide cond itions contributing to the cumulative impact (Section 15130). The certified General Plan EI R utilized the I ist method for cumulative impact analysis due to the updated General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance addressing all properties in the City, projected decline in development square footage, and stability in housing population. The Cities of Hun tington Park, Commerce, Bell, Maywood, and Los Angeles, an d the County of Lo s Angeles were consulted in the preparation of a list of large development projects. Cumulative impacts associated with the adoption and implementation of the certified General Plan EIR wa s analyzed when considered with planned developments in the surrounding communities. The following discusses the cumulative impacts associated with ado pting and implementing the proposed Vernon General Plan and zoning ordinance update. Air Quality The context for assessing cumulative air quality impacts in the Sout h Coast Ai r Basin is in terms of national and state criteria pollutant standards. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance upda to is consistent with the AQMP, as discussed in Section 4.1; therefore, the project will not confli ct with Ion -t ern implementation of the AQMP and the cumulative, Basin-wide impacts it is de ig�ned to reduce. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 6.0-1 6.0 Analysis of Long Term Effects The City will continue to eva luate short-term, construction-related impacts and long-term impacts for discretionary land use projects, so that best available control measures can be applied, where warranted, to minimize the effects of individual development projects. Thresholds recommended by the SCAQMD will continue to be the preferred criteria for determining the level of impact significance at the project level of review. The propo sed project would not authorize any particular project or any exemptions from or conflicts with the AQMP and would not result in any direct air quality impacts. However, as determined in the certified General Plan EIR, potential development projects in the surrounding area would represent substantial new development to the region that w ill attract new vehicle trips and generate associated pollutant emissions. Despite land use policies and practices and regional efforts to redu ce pollutant emissions, emissions associated with regional development, when added to existing pollutant emissions, are anticipated to result in continu ed overall emission levels in excess of SCAQMD thresholds. Alth ough Vernon and other jurisdictions will b e required to adop t and implement measures to work toward AQMP air quality improvement goals, the increase is cumulatively considerable. Therefore, consistent with the certified General Plan EIR, the propo sed project's contribution to cumulative air quality impa cts would be significant and unavoidable. As t he proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance u pdate would result in reduced development intensity compared to the certified General Plan EIR, cumulative impacts as a result of the proposed project would not be increased. Hazards and Hazardous Materials The context for assessing cumulative hazardous materials impacts involves existing and potential development within the planning are a and those surrounding areas that could result in the transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials or wastes. Typical uses would include industrial activities, utility p roviders, and waste management services. As future development occurs within the planning area, the possibility exists that industries using hazardous materials will locate proximate to sensitive uses. The cumulative impact of regional development on public safety is potentially significant, but can be redu ced to a less th an significant level through implementation of the mitigation measures included in the ce rtified Program EIR, including continued implementation of the City o f Vernon's Hazardous Materials Monitoring Program and con tinued implementation activities to a ssure that hazardous wastes generated by Vernon businesses are handled and disposed of according to federal, state, and local regulations. Vernon will continue to require every business to maintain a list of material safety data sheets for the chemicals and other hazardous materials used or stored on site in accordance with law, and to provide that list to the Fire Department and Environmenta I Health Department. Enforcement of state, county, and local hazardous material regulations will redu ce significant public health hazards to a le ss than significant level. A s a resu It, consistent with the certifie d Program EI R, implementation of the focused General 6.0-2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Analysis of Long Term Effects 6.0 Plan and zoning ordinance update will resu It in n o significant cumulative impact with respect to hazards and hazardous materials. Noise Implementation of the proposed focused General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not generate new stationary noise sources outside of the planning area and would not, therefore, result in cumulatively considerable noise impacts involving stationary sources. Additional traffic volumes associated with future growth in the planning area would combine with regional traffic on major, inter-jurisdictions I roads and highways leading to Vernon that would contribute to cumulative effects involving roadway noise. Consistent with the findings of the certified EIR, the level of traffic noise attributable to Vernon-based trips that will occu r outside of the planning area will increase gradually, over a long period of time, and would not result in cumulatively considerable changes in roadway noise levels in the context of regional traffic growth. Utilities The analysis in Section 4.5 - Utilities assesses the cumulative, long-term impact of growth within the planning area on water sup ply and solid waste disposal capabilities. As concluded for both of th ese issue areas and consistent with the certified EIR, impacts will be less than significant. Cities in the imme diate area use the same water sources a nd same landfills as Vernon. Both water supplies and landfill space are diminishing resources in the region. Conservation and recycling efforts are vigorously pursued at local and state levels to prolong the life of these resources. Foresight and planning represent important strategies to address long-term shortfalls. However, over the life o f the focused General Plan and zoning ordinance update, these resources are anticipated to become increasingly stressed. The certified EIR concluded that conservatively, cumulative long-term impacts should be considered significant. Transportation The SCAG regional traffic model was used to assess impact accounts for regional cumulative growth. Based on the analysis contained in Section 4.4 - Transportation of this EI R, long-term implementation of the focused Gen eral Plan and zoning ordinance update and cumulative regional growth will result in the reduction of the level of servi ce (LOS) to L OS F fr om the previous 2030 General Plan prior to mitigation at the following intersections: ■ Soto Street at Vernon Avenue ■ Downey Road at Bandini Boulevard Although the proposed update would not substantially increase future projected 2035 impacts compared to the current 2030 General Plan, 21 intersections are projected to operate at LOS E and F in the absence of any improvements to the circulation network. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 6.0-3 6.0 Analysis of Long Term Effects Implementation of mitigation measures identified in the Program EIR may allow the City to maintain its level of service objectives for the local road network over the long term. Funding has been secured and implementation of the L os Angeles County Automated Traffic Surveillance and Control System (ATSAC) has begun. However, no funding has been identified for mitigation measures listed in the Program EIR. The only other funded improvement is the extension of 26th Street, which has been completed since 2007. Further, the responsibility of funding and completing I-710 improvements lies with Caltrans. As su ch, construction of the bridge and freeway improvements cannot be guaranteed as traffic impact mitigation measures for the purposes of this EIR. The number of intersections projected to operate at a level of service w orse than the City's adopted minimum of LOS D will remain the same as the certified G eneral Plan, but will increase from 16 intersections during existing conditions to 18 with implementation of the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update. The proposed General Plan Update will not result in substantial changes in long-term traffic impacts when compared to the analysis provided in the certified EIR, as discussed in Sectio n 4.4. I mpacts will remain significant and unavoidable. Growth-Inducing Impacts Growth-inducing effects in clude ways in which the proposed Genera I Plan an d zoning ordinance update could foster economic or population growth, or the construction of additional housing, either directly or indirectly, in the surrounding environment. A prime exa mple is a major infrastructure project or road extension which provides urban service capacities to currently and eveloped areas, thus removing an obstacle to population growth. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update is specifically intended to provide for the orderly gro wth of the planning area to achieve economic, environmental and quality of life benefits. Nothing in the General Plan and zoning ordinance update propo ses new infrastructure systems to facilitate growth of undeveloped areas that were not proposed in the existing General Plan. There are no proposed policies, regulatio ns, or ord inances that are part of the project or implied by the General Plan a nd zoning ordinance update that will encourage or enable significantly higher levels of growth than have been anticipated in regional forecasts by SCAG. Improvements to the road, storm drain , potable water, and sewer systems, including those listed in this Supplemental EIR, are intended to achieve desired levels of service as growth occurs, rather than facilitate growth beyond what is p Ianned for in the existing General Plan. Projects permitted pursuant to land use poli cy will provide for ad ditional housing, an emergency shelter, an expanded commercial district, slaughtering and rendering use, an d trucking and freight terminals. Energy Conservation Introduction This energy conservation analysis has been prepared pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 21100(b)(3) and Appendix F of the CEQA Guidelines. 6.0-4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Analysis of Long Term Effects 6.0 The purpose of this analysis is to asse ss the short- and long-term energy deman d of the proposed project, identify proposed and required conservation measures, and assess the extent to which the proposed project would conserve energy. Project energy demand will not be wasteful, inefficient, or unn ecessary if it doe s not increase energy demand over typical construction and operating requirements. Appendix F of the State CEQA Guideline s states that the goal of assessing energy conservation in a project is to ensure the wise and efficient use of energy. Energy efficiency is achieved by decreasing energy consumption, decreasing reliance on fossil fuels, and increasing reliance on renewable energy sources. The guidelines for analysis of energy con servation provided in Appendix F of the State CEQA Guidelines are provided herein. CEQA Appendix F: Energy Conservation I. Introduction The goal of conserving energy implies the wise and efficient use of energy. The means of achieving this goal include: (1) decreasing overall per capita energy consumption, (2) decreasing reliance on fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas and oil, and (3) increasing reliance on renewable energy sources. In order to assure that energy imp lications are considered in pro ject decisions, the California Environmental Quality Act requires that EIRs include a discussion of th e potential energy impacts of proposed projects, with particular emphasis on avo iding or reducing inefficient, wasteful and unnecessary consumption of energy (see Public Resources Code section 21100(b)(3)). Energy conservation implies that a project's cost effectiveness be reviewed not only in dollars, but also in terms of energy requirements. For many projects, cost effectiveness ma y be determined mo re by ene rgy efficiency than by initial dollar costs. A lead agency may consider the extent to which an energy source serving the project has already undergone environmental review that adequately analyzed and mitigated the effects of energy production. II. EIR Contents Potentially significant energy implications of a proj ect shall be considered in an EIR to the extent relevant and applicable to the project. The following list of energy impact possibilities and po tential conservation measures is designed to assist in the preparation of an EIR. In many instances specific items may not apply or additional items may be needed. Where item s listed below are applicable or relevant to the project, they should be considered in the EIR. J/1 Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 6.0-5 6.0 Analysis of Long Term Effects A. Project Description may include the following items: 1. Energy consuming equipment and processes which will b e used during construction, operation and/or removal of the project. If appropriate, this discussion should consider the energy intensiveness of materials and equipment required for the project. 2. The effects of the project on local and regional energy supplies and on requirements for additional capacity. 3. The effects of the project on peak and base period demands for electricity and other forms of energy. 4. The degree to which the project co mplies with existing energy standards. 5. The effects of the project on energy resources. 6. The project's projected transportation energy use requirements and its overall use of efficient transportation alternatives. B. Mitigation Measures may include: 1. Potential measures to reduce wasteful, inefficient and unnecessary consumption of energy during construction, operation, maintenance and/or removal. The discussion should explain why certain measures were incorporated in the project and why other measures were dismissed. 2. The potential of siting, orientation, and design to m inimize energy consumption, including transportation energy, increase water conservation and reduce solid waste. 3. The potential for reducing peak energy demand. 4. Alternative fuels (particularly renewable ones) or energy systems. 5. Energy conservation which could result from recycling efforts. C. Alternatives should be compared in terms of overall energy consumption and in terms of reducing wasteful, inefficient and unnecessary consumption of energy. D. Unavoidable Adverse Effects may include wasteful, inefficient and unnecessary consumption of energy during the project construction, operation, maintenance and/or removal that cannot be feasibly mitigated. E. Irreversible Commitment of Resources may include a discussion of how the project preempts future e nergy development or future energy conservation. F. Short-Term gains versus Long-Term Impacts can be com pared by calculating the project's energy costs over the project's lifetime. G. Growth-Inducing Effects may include the estimated energy consumption of growth induced by the project. 6.0-6 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Analysis of Long Term Effects 6.0 Energy Demand Short-term energy demand would result from development construction pursuant to implementation of the proposed project. This would include energy demand from worker and vendor vehicle trips an d construction equipment usage. Long - term energy deman d would result from operation of variou s development types pursuant to implementation of the pro posed General Plan a nd zoning ordinance update. This would typically include energy demand from vehicle trips, electricity and natural ga s usage, and water and wastewater conve yance. Th is section generally describes the energy needs of these activities. Construction Activities The proposed General Plan an d zoning ordinance update will not dire ctly result in construction of any development or infrastructure; however, future development supported by the policies o f the General Plan will resu It in short-term energy demand. Short-term energy demand will occur during site preparation, grading, building construction, paving, and p ainting activities associated with n ew development. Energy demand results from use of equipment, worker, vendor, and hauling trips. Operational Activities The proposed General Plan an d zoning ordinance update will not dire ctly result in operation of any de velopment or infrastructure; however, future development supported by the policies of the G eneral Plan will result in I ong-term energy demand. Long-term energy demand will occur primarily from m obile sources, electricity and natural gas use, and water and wastewater. Mobile Sources Mobile source energy demand primarily is associated with individual vehicle energy demand and therefore gasoline and d iesel fuel primarily as well a s electricity increasingly for electric vehicles. Mob He source energy demand may also be associated with public transportation such as buses and trains associated with natural gas, diesel fuel, or electricity. Of all op erational energy demands, the proposed General Plan and zo ning ordinance update seeks most to reduce the energy demand of mobile sources through improved land use and circulation network planning to reduce reliance on individual vehicle s and promote use of public transportation as well as non-moto rized transportation such as walking and biking. By seeking to reduce the amount of individ ual vehicle usage, the proposed General Plan and zoning ordin ance update would achieve reductions in mobile source operational energy demand. Electricity and Natural Gas Use Electricity and natural gas wo uld be req uired to p rovide energy to the proposed development of residential, commercial, industrial and other land uses provided for in the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update. All new de velopment and redevelopment would be subject to current CBC requirements for buildin g energy efficiency. Other opp ortunities would also continu a to be avails ble to Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 6.0-7 6.0 Analysis of Long Term Effects existing and new development to incorporate energy saving features or renewable energy sources into buildings. Water and Wastewater Electricity will indirectly be required to treat and convey water to and convey wastewater from de velopment that implements th e proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update. Pursuant to the Water Conservation in Landscaping Act, outdoor water use will continue to be regulated for new development to plan landscaping accordingly and conserve water. Energy Conservation The project will be subject to state water efficiency regulations pursuant to the 2011 California Building Code (CBC) th at will reduce long-term project energy demand. These requirements would reduce wasteful, inefficient, and unnecessary consumption of energy over the long-term. California Building Code Pursuant to the 2010 CBC CALGREEN requir ements, the project will be subject to the following requirements: ■ 20 percent reduction in water demand (5.303.2) • 20 percent reduction in wastewater discharges (5.303.4) Reduce Water and Wastewater Demand (5.303.2 & 5.303.4) The minimum 20 percent reduction in water demand and wastewater discharges would decrease indoor water demand. This wou Id result in a concurrent reduction in energy demand to supply, treat, and convey water and wastewater. Conclusion The conservation of energy will result fro m implementation of the CBC, Regional Greenhouse Gas Inventory and Reduction Plan, and General Plan policies seeking to maximize the use of clean and alternative fuel and power. With implementation of existing regulations and proposed policies, energy demand for development that implements the pro posed General Plan and zoning ordinance update will not b e wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary. Significant Irreversible Environmental Changes Over the long term, development projects pursued consistent with updated General Plan land use policy and the revised Zoning Ordinance provisions will result in the consumption of non-renewable resources such as construction materials and, once projects are operational, the use of energy resources for heating, cooling, industry, transportation, etc. This use will have an irreversible effect on such resources. The updated General Plan and revised Zon ing Ordinance could result in development of urban uses in the few remaining lots in the City that are currently 6.0-8 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Analysis of Long Term Effects 6.0 vacant. Once developed, reversion to a less urban use or open spa ce is h ighly unlikely. The irreversible commitment of limited resources is inherent in any development project, or in the case o f the General Plan u pdate, cumulative development projects. Resources anticipated to be irreversibly committed over the approximate 20-year life of the General Plan update include, but are not limited to, lumber and other related forest products; sand, grave I, and concre te; petrochemicals; construction materials; steel, copper, lead an d other metals; and water. Implementation of the General Plan update represents a long-term commitment to the consumption of fossil fuel oil and natural gas. Unavoidable Significant Environmental Impacts Consistent with th e certified General Plan EIR, implementation of the updated General Plan and revised Zon ing Ordinance will result in the following significant, unavoidable project-level and cumulative impacts: • Air Quality: Cumulative • Traffic: Cumulative impact on surface streets and Interstate 710 • Utilities: Cumulative impact on water and landfill resources Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 6.0-9 Introduction 1 Executive Summary 2 Project Description 3 Environmental Impact Analysis 4 Alternatives 5 Analysis of Long Term Effects 6 Effects Found Not to be Significant 7 Preparation Team 8 7 Effects Found Not to be Significant Effects Found Not to Be Significant 7.0 CEQA Guidelines Section 15128 requires a statement indicating the re ason that various possible significant effects are determined not to be significant and therefore are not discussed in the EIR.

The General Plan is a comprehensive, long- range plan that guides decisions relating to land use, transportation, housing, public safety, use of open space and natural resources, parks and recreation, and noise in the community. The Zoning Ordinance implements the land use policies contained in the General Plan. In conjunction with approval of the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance in 2007, the Vernon City Council certified a Final Program Environmental Impact Report (General Plan and Zoning Ordinance EIR) (State Clearinghouse No. [SCH] 2007061031), which evaluated, at a program level of analysis, the environmental consequences of long-term implementation General Plan. The Program EIR also examined alternatives to the project and recommended mitigation measures that would reduce or avoid the project's significant impacts. The General Plan and Zoning Ordinance EIR found that the project would result in the following significant impacts that could not be fully mitigated: ■ traffic on local surface streets and freeways (at both the project level and on a cumulative basis), ■ cumulative air quality impacts ■ cumulative utilities impacts The City of Vernon has prepared this Initial Study for use in determining whether the impacts associated with the currently proposed General Plan Amendments, Zoning Ordinance Amendments, and Zoning Map changes (collectively referred to as the "project" or "Proposed Focused Update") were addressed in the 2007 General Plan EIR. Based on the analysis contained in this Initial Study, the City will determine whether a subsequent or supplemental EIR - or no further review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA, Public Resources Code § 21000 et seq.) and the CEQA Guidelines (Government Code § 15000 et seq.) — is required. Under CEQA, a subsequent or supplemental EIR to a previously certified EIR is required if one or more of the following circumstances arises: (1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions in the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects, or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects (CEQA Guidelines, § 15162, subd. (a)(1)); (2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects (CEQA Guidelines, § 15162, subd. [a][2]); or (3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete, shows any of the following: (a) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR; (b) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR; (c) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would, in fact, be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 1 2 Introduction (d) Mitigation measures or alternatives, which are considerably different from those analyzed in the certified EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative (CEQA Guidelines, §15162, subd. (3)(a)-(d), see also Pub. Resources Code, § 21166). The lead agency may choose to prepare a supplement to an EIR rather than a subsequent EIR if: (1) Any of the conditions described in Section 15162 would require the preparation of a subsequent EIR, and (2) Only minor additions or changes would be necessary to make the previous EIR adequately apply to the project in the changed situation (CEQA Guidelines, § 15163). The 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance EIR is available for review at the City of Vernon Community Services and Water Department, 4305 Santa Fe Avenue, Vernon, CA 90058. This Initial Study concludes that a Supplemental EIR to the Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR is required for the Proposed Focused Update. Only minor additions or changes would be necessary to make the previous EIR adequately apply to the proposed project in the changed situation, as only very limited land use changes are proposed. 2 Initial Study 2 Project Description 2.1 - Project Title City of Vernon Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 2.2 - Lead Agency Name and Address City of Vernon 4305 Santa Fe Avenue Vernon, CA 90058 2.3 - Contact Person and Phone Number S. Kevin Wilson, Director of Community Services and Water (323)583-8811 2.4 - Project Location The project applies to all parcels within the City of Vernon and the City's sphere of influence. Vernon is located in the central portion of Los Angeles County, directly south of downtown Los Angeles. Vernon is adjacent to the cities of Los Angeles, Huntington Park, Maywood, and Commerce. The City's planning area encompasses approximately 5.2 square miles. Exhibit 1 (Regional Location and Vicinity Map) illustrates the Vernon's location within Los Angeles County and its local context. 2.5 - Project Sponsor's Name and Address City of Vernon 4305 Santa Fe Avenue Vernon, CA 90058 2.6 - General Plan Land Use Designation Industrial with various overlays (see Exhibit 2) 2.7 - Zoning District Industrial with various overlays (see Exhibit 3) 2.8 - Project Description The City of Vernon adopted a comprehensive update to the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance in 2007. A Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) was prepared at the time and certified by the Vernon City Council. In the past, the City has adopted and implemented land use policy that allowed for very limited housing in Vernon (restricted to existing residences) due to the unique and ubiquitous industrial nature of the City. However, in 2011 the City Council committed to implementing new good governance practices that included adopting land use policies aimed at increasing the voting populous. Specifically, the City has determined that additional properties Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 3 2 Project Description could be designated for residential use and has identified specific locations where new housing development would be permitted to occur. The City has drafted land use policies and zoning regulations that would allow such development to occur. The proposed project consists of several components: • Housing Element Update (2014-2021) to comply with State Housing Element law regarding timely updates and to include information on potential housing sites in the City by revising existing land-use policy which prohibited new housing. The Housing Element identifies two sites where residential housing could be permitted and one site where an emergency shelter could be permitted. • Update to the Land Use Element to introduce new Overlays: Housing and Emergency Shelter. • Update to the Land Use Element to expand commercial and trucking uses: Land Use Element policies regarding commercial and trucking and freight uses have been revised to expand where these uses can be established in the City. • Update the Resources, Safety, and Noise Elements to comply with recently passed State laws and update pertinent information. • Update the Implementation Plan (Appendix A) with new applicable policies related to the above revised policy changes. • Revise the Zoning Ordinance to create implementing zoning overlays for new General Plan land use designation overlays and/or policies—Housing, Emergency Shelter, Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay—and to expand the area to which the Commercial Overlay applies. Additional clean-up items which do not affect the policy direction of the Zoning Ordinance are also included in this project. • Potential housing project at 4675 52nd Drive. The City has received multiple proposals for a residential development at this location. The potential of locating new housing at this location is reviewed in this Initial Study. Each of these components is discussed in more detail below. For the purposes of this Initial Study, the focused update to the Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, including the potential housing project at 4675 52nd Drive, is collectively referred to as "the project" and "the Proposed Focused Update." The "planning area" is the area to which the project applies; this includes all parcels within the City of Vernon and its sphere of influence. Update to General Plan Elements Housing Element The Vernon 2014-2021 Housing Element meets the very specific requirements of state law regarding the content of housing elements (Government Code, Section 65580 et seq.). State law requires that the Housing Element be updated at least every eight years, on a timeline consistent with the Regional Transportation Plan, unless extended by the legislature. Article 10.6, Section 65580-65589.8, Chapter 3 of Division 1 of Title 7 of the Government Code sets forth the legal requirements for a housing element and encourages the provision of affordable and decent housing in suitable living environments for all communities to meet statewide goals. The 2014- 2021 Housing Element update is a policy document by the City of Vernon regarding its current 4 Initial Study 2 Project Description and projected future housing needs (as identified by the State Housing and Community Development Department, or HCD) and the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), and the City's goals, policies, and programs to address those identified needs. Specifically, the element details: ■ Population characteristics and trends ■ Employment characteristics ■ The types of households in Vernon ■ Special needs populations ■ Housing characteristics and trends • Constraints on the development of new housing ■ Housing resources (available vacant and underutilized sites, financial resources) ■ How the City will work to meet the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation assigned by SCAG and otherwise achieve housing goals Given Vernon's status as an industrial city, the Housing Element has, in the past, promulgated the policy that no new housing will be constructed in Vernon due to the safety risks posed by the multitude of industries operating there, including many that involve the use, transport, and production of hazardous wastes. This 2014-20214 Housing Element revises that policy and identifies two potential sites for housing development that have been deemed most suitable. One of these sites is designated with a Housing Overlay in the Land Use Element. The Housing Element also addresses new State laws, including SB 2 (codified as Government Code Section 65583[a][4]), which requires jurisdictions to identify a zone in which to permit emergency (homeless) shelters by right. The Housing Element identifies an area designated with an Emergency Shelter Overlay in the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. See Exhibit 4 for locations of both potential housing and emergency shelter sites. Additional updates include new U.S. Census information and information to comply with SB 812 related to persons with developmental disabilities. The State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) will review the draft element to determine whether it meets the requirements of state law. Land Use Element The Land Use Element identifies the physical form of Vernon and how land will be used over the long term. This element sets forth the location, type, and intensity uses, and also establishes the desired mix and relationship between uses. Land use designations identify the types and nature of development permitted throughout the planning area. The goals and policies contained in this element provide the foundation for maintaining Vernon as a regional manufacturing and industrial center, while allowing for some commercial uses and public facilities. These policies were retained in this Proposed Focused Update. In recognition of Vernon's unique status as an exclusively industrial city, the 2007 General Plan established a single land use category (Industrial) and three overlay districts: Commercial, Rendering, and Slaughtering. The Focused Update proposes to expand the area to which the Commercial Overlay applies. Also, regulations will permit ancillary commercial uses throughout the City on weekends, to be implemented by the Zoning Ordinance. In addition, two new overlay districts are proposed to be added: the Housing Overlay and the Emergency Shelter Overlay. Each of these overlay districts apply to one specific site within the City, respectively, that has been identified as most suitable for these uses. The Housing Overlay would permit up to an additional 60 units in the City of Vernon. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 5 2 Project Description Housing Overlay District The Housing Overlay District is proposed to apply to one vacant parcel located on the east side of the City. The Housing Overlay District is applicable only to sites that have been specifically identified by the City and determined to be the best locations for housing, given surrounding uses, proximity to services and amenities, and distance from safety hazards. Residential uses are permitted in this district with a Conditional Use Permit or other discretionary review, such as a Development Agreement, given the unique safety constraints in Vernon. Emergency Shelter Overlay District The Emergency Shelter Overlay District is proposed to apply to a single vacant parcel located in the northwest corner of the City. The Emergency Shelter Overlay District is applicable only to sites that have been specifically identified by the City and determined to be appropriate locations for emergency shelters. This District is intended to comply with requirements of Government Code Section 65583(a)(4), as discussed in the Housing Element. Safety Element The Safety Element establishes policies to protect the community from natural and human-caused hazards. The element includes a discussion of those features within or near the planning area that represent a potential danger to buildings/structures, public facilities, and infrastructure. The element establishes goals, policies, and plans to minimize dangers to residents, workers, and visitors associated with seismic hazards, flooding, and hazardous materials. The Safety Element was updated to achieve consistency with new land use and housing policies, and to comply with AB 162, enacted in 2007 and effective in 2009. AB 162 revised multiple sections of the Government Code and requires flood risk management information to be included in the Safety Element. As part of this update, new Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood maps were added to the Safety Element. Policies were slightly revised to reflect updated housing policy. The underlying preexisting Safety Element goals remain the same. Resources Element The Resources Element contains goals and policies that encourage conservation and management of both cultural and natural resources, including water resources, open space, energy resources, air quality, historic buildings and sites. The project proposes limited changes associated with the Focused General Plan update for the Resources Element. Specifically, the information related to the Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) applicable to the City was updated to reflect information in the most recently adopted UWMP (2010). Additionally, a policy was added related to AB 32, the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 and SB 375 (2008), to consult with regional governmental groups to coordinate land use, circulation, and infrastructure planning. Additional changes were made to achieve consistency regarding the City's housing policy, specifically the policy change to permit housing in very limited locations in the City rather than prohibiting new housing. The underlying preexisting Resources Element goals remain the same. Noise Element The Noise Element focuses on minimizing community noise by identifying its sources and assessing alternative methods to reduce impacts. The element establishes policies to abate noise and reduce the detrimental health effects associated with excessive noise levels. The element identifies noise standards and land use compatibility guidelines to be used in the assessment of development proposals to protect noise-sensitive land uses from excessive noise. 6 Initial Study 2 Project Description The project proposes limited changes to the Noise Element to reflect revised housing policy. The underlying preexisting Noise Element goals remain the same. Implementation Plan The General Plan includes a comprehensive Implementation Plan that provides direction for translating goals and policies to specific actions. The Implementation Plan serves as a basis for making future programming decisions related to the assignment of staff and the expenditure of City funds. The Implementation Plan identifies individual program responsibility, funding sources, and a timeframe for completion. A limited number of new actions were added to the Implementation Plan to correlate with new policies in the General Plan. Update to Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map Updates to the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map (Exhibit 3) are largely intended to achieve consistency between the revisions proposed in the Focused General Plan update and the Zoning Ordinance. Additional policy changes include: 1) expanding the Commercial Overlay zone and permitting ancillary commercial on weekends throughout the City, 2) establishing a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay District to certain areas of the City, and providing related development standards, and 3) completing minor clean up of language in the Ordinance to facilitate its interpretation. General Plan Consistency and Commercial Overlay Expansion The City prepared revisions to the Zoning Ordinance to achieve consistency with Land Use Element Overlay Districts, goals, policies, and implementation measures specified in the General Plan. These revisions include a new Housing Overlay District and Emergency Shelter Overlay District in both the Zoning Ordinance and the Zoning Map, and related use, development, and site planning standards for these new overlays. Additional changes include revisions to commercial uses policy, as indicated in the General Plan Land Use Element. These changes are reflected in the proposed amendments to the Zoning Ordinance with the revisions to regulations for ancillary commercial uses (permitted on weekends) and expansion of the Commercial Overlay on the Zoning Map. Additional regulations are included for parking and loading standards for different types of commercial uses. Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zoning District The City proposes to establish a new Zoning Overlay District. This overlay would correlate to the new Truck and Freight Overlay in the General Plan. The Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay District as proposed is represented in Exhibit 3. Development standards, including site planning standards and allowable uses, are included in the Zoning Ordinance amendments. Whereas truck and freight terminals would not be allowed elsewhere in the City, this amendment proposes to allow these uses, subject to development standards and a Conditional Use Permit, within the new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay District. Clean Up Items Section 26.2.3, Definitions, of the Zoning Ordinance is proposed to be updated to increase clarity in interpretation and implement the above policy changes. The definitions of community facilities, floor-area ratio, freight terminal, incidental use, retail use, slaughtering, truck terminal, and warehouse use will be updated, and definitions will be added for hazardous waste facility, indoor recycling facility, outdoor recycling facility, solid waste facility, and trade school. Section 26.4.1 - Zones, Permitted Uses, Development Standards, and Site Planning Standards is proposed to be updated with the following changes: 1) additional uses permitted by right were added Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 7 2 Project Description 2) uses permitted with a conditional use permit were added or revised 3) buffer requirements for acutely hazardous materials within 500 feet of a school are added 4) screening of outdoor storage activities modified; clarifications on water usage requirements for conditional use permits 5) interpretations by the Community Services Director regarding measurements and exceptions to standards 6) clarifications on parking access, parking space size, vehicle maneuvering, and street dedication 7) extension of amortization of nonconforming outdoor activities and storage to 2020 8) other minor clarification and typographical changes Proposed Residential Project at 4675 52"d Drive To institute good governance practices, including expansion of the voting population in Vernon, the City has identified a site at 4675 52"d Drive as possibly appropriate for new housing development. This is the only location in the City that is proposed to be designated with the Housing Overlay District as part of the Focused General Plan update. The parcel is owned by the City of Vernon and would be developed by a yet-to-be determined developer, if this project, including General Plan and Zoning Ordinance amendments, is approved. To meet good governance agreed-upon deadlines for achieving new housing development in Vernon, the City issued a Request for Proposals on April 19, 2012 for development proposals for new housing on this 2.06-acre site. Project proposals were received in July 2012, all proposing exclusively residential use and yielding between 31 and 61 total units. Three development proposals will be considered; these three proposals will provide the framework for environmental analysis in this Initial Study. However, potential unit yield of the three proposed projects to be considered is 35 to 45 units, consistent with the City policy direction for this site. All development proposals include provisions for on-site open space/amenities, buffering (through setbacks) from the adjacent railroad spur, and on-site parking. No permitted activities or approved actions will occur related to any potential residential development on this site until and if General Plan and Zoning Ordinance amendments are completed and this CEQA review process has been completed. 2.9 - Project Objectives This update is being pursued so that the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance are consistent with State law and consistent with each other, and to provide policy direction for additional housing sites within the City to forward City policy to expand the voting population in Vernon. Other objectives of the General Plan remain unchanged. Specifically, the City's intent is to continue to support the ongoing industrial character of the City, while recognizing the changing industrial environment throughout the United States and globally, and to respond appropriately. 2.10 - Surrounding Land Uses The project applies to all parcels within the City of Vernon and its sphere of influence. Vernon is adjacent to the cities of Los Angeles, Huntington Park, Maywood, and Commerce. Surrounding uses in these cities include residential, commercial, and industrial uses. With regard to proposed General Plan land use changes and related consistency Zoning Map changes, the two new General Plan Overlay Districts are applied to one parcel each. The proposed Housing Overlay site is at the southeast edge of the City, on vacant site. To the south, in the City 8 Initial Study 2 Project Description of Maywood, are residential uses in the form of single-family and multi-family housing. To the west and north are vacant parcels; the Los Angeles River lies farther north. To the east are industrial uses. The Emergency Shelter Overlay District is located near the intersection of Alameda Street and E. 25t" Street, near the Alameda Corridor freight rail line. The site is currently vacant. Surrounding uses include residential, public utility (Alameda Corridor), and wholesale commercial uses. The Commercial Overlay District is proposed to be expanded to include additional parcels along Soto Street, as well as properties on Slauson Avenue and Atlantic Boulevard. Surrounding uses are generally industrial in nature, with a limited number of commercial uses. Additionally, the potential expansion of the Commercial Overlay District would be adjacent to the Maywood Elementary School, located in the adjacent City of Maywood. The Zoning Map has an additional proposed amendment: the Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay District. This overlay would apply to a northern portion of the City, as indicated in Exhibit 3. Surrounding uses are general industrial in nature, as well as rail yards and rail lines. The Los Angeles River borders much of this proposed Overlay District. 2.11 - Environmental Setting The City of Vernon is located in the central portion of Los Angeles County, directly southeast of downtown Los Angeles. V ernon is adjacent to the cities of Los Angeles, Huntington Park, Maywood, and Commerce. Vernon is connected to the regional rail lines via the Alameda Corridor, which is the primary connection between the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and the rail yards located in Vernon, Commerce, and downtown Los Angeles. A portion of the Hobart Yard, an intermodal facility where large shipping containers are transferred from railroad cars to trucks and vice versa, is also located in Vernon. The corporate limits of the City of Vernon encompass approximately 5.2 square miles, extending generally from Alameda Street and the Alameda Corridor on the west to the I-710 freeway to the east, and the cities of Maywood and Huntington Park on the south and the cities of Los Angeles and Commerce to the north. A portion of unincorporated Los Angeles County is located in the planning area that includes primarily industrial uses and portions of the Los Angeles River. Lands within Vernon largely have been developed with industrial uses since incorporation in 1905. Close to 50,000 employees commute into Vernon daily to work in the 1,200 manufacturing, warehousing, industrial, and transportation-related businesses. As of 2010, Vernon had only 31 residences and a population of 112 persons. 2.12 - Required Approvals • The City Council must approve a General Plan Amendment that incorporates the focused updates into the current General Plan. • The City Council must approve a Zone Text Amendment to create and implement the Housing Overlay, Emergency Shelter Overlay, Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay, and expansion of the Commercial Overlay, as well as other focused amendments to facilitate implementation and ease interpretation of the Zoning Ordinance. • The City Council must approve a Zoning Map Amendment to apply the Housing Overlay, Emergency Shelter Overlay, Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay, and expansion of the Commercial Overlay to the Zoning Map. • The City Council must approve a Development Agreement related to 4675 52nd Drive prior to approval of building permits for a proposed project on this site. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 9 2 Project Description 2.13 - Other Public Agencies Whose Approval Is Required The State of California, Department of Housing and Community Development will review the Housing Element for compliance with State law and indicate whether the adopted Element is consistent with State Housing Element Law (Article 10.6 of the Government Code). Assumptions The environmental analysis contained in this Initial Study is based on the following assumptions: 1. Project Specific Environmental Review: In the City of Vernon, all development proposals that are considered "projects" under CEQA are subject to an environmental review process to determine the level of impact and to impose appropriate mitigation measures, if needed, to avoid significant impacts. The only potential housing development project which this Initial Study will review is applicable to development at 4675 52nd Drive, where housing is anticipated in the near future. 2. Purpose and Focus of this Initial Study for the Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Environmental Review: Other than providing environmental review for a potential housing development at 4675 52nd Drive, this project would not authorize any plans for construction of new uses, or redevelopment of any properties to produce new uses. The proposed project is an update to existing policy documents. No other direct environmental impacts, besides those discussed for 4675 52nd Drive, therefore, would occur. In addition to assessing impacts related to a potential housing development at 4675 52nd Drive, then, the purpose of the environmental assessment is to determine whether there are any peculiar types of impacts that could occur as an indirect result of the Housing Element strategies and other amendments to the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. Because the City certified a Program EIR in 2007 for a comprehensive update of the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, the analysis in this Initial Study tiers upon this prior Program EIR for the purpose of determining whether a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR is required, or an Addendum to the prior Program EIR. 10 Initial Study 2 Project Description Exhibit 1: Regional Context and Vicinity Map 101 Burbank Pasadena art' Glendale Monrovia G_- -"��¢� Arcadia �Y� rw 4 vt tiF -:•��1s�vf�" • lF '^-'}~ ,^ ,ram`Yr'- 11 "��r / — - ♦,n �,� y .Ii r - "" rTemple Cm�_-�=%fir 1!

I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the ❑ environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because revisions in the project have been made by or agreed to by the project proponent. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and ❑ an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required. I find that the proposed project MAY have a "potentially significant impact" or "potentially significant unless mitigated" impact on the environment, but at least one effect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. A SUPPLEMENTAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed. I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the ❑ environment, because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards, and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATIO,N;'including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed p�ojd , nothing further is required. S. Kevin Wilson, Wdor 6f Community Services and Water Date Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 17 3 Determination - This Page Intentionally Left Blank - 20 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.1 - Aesthetics Would the project: Potentially Less Than Significant with Less Than No Significant Mitigation Significant Impact Impact Incorporation Impact a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic ❑ ❑ ❑ buildings within view from a state scenic highway? c) Substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site and its ❑ ❑ ❑ surroundings? d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or ❑ ❑ ❑ nighttime views in the area? a-d) No Impact. Potential impacts to scenic vistas within the City of Vernon were previously analyzed in the Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance EIR. The analysis concluded that no impact would result since no scenic vistas, scenic resources, or state scenic highways are located in the City. In addition to land use changes proposed in the General Plan, the Proposed Focused Update includes revisions to the Zoning Ordinance to introduce development standards concerning lots sizes, building intensity, setbacks, building height limitations for the proposed new zoning district overlays. These standards are intended to provide for quality design of proposed development, as well as ensure compatibility with existing surrounding development. The Proposed Focused Update does not propose any changes to the Zoning Ordinance which would remove or revise existing development standards to reduce light and glare impacts. Impacts of the Proposed Focused Update would be similar to those identified in the General Plan EIR, and no new impact would occur. With regard to the proposed development at 4675 52"d Drive, surrounding land uses to the west, east, and north consist of industrial businesses. Residential uses (single- and multi-family) are located across the street to the south in the City of Maywood. Proposed development at this site would be two to three stories in height; a proposal for a three-story development has a graduating height which increases from the street edge towards the back of the property. Two proposals would be limited to two stories in height. Given the industrial natural of other existing land uses in the area, a proposed housing development on this site, of relatively consistent scale Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 21 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts with nearby residential uses, would be consistent with the aesthetic condition at nearby residential uses relative to scale. The development proposals all aim to provide clear pedestrian-orientation toward the 52nd Drive boundary, with ground floor entrances and limited parking and driveway interruptions. The development projects as proposed would be compatible with existing conditions relative to adjacent residential uses, and no scenic vistas would be impacted. All development proposals include landscaping, building articulation, and varied architectural materials. The proposed designs would complement buildings on surrounding properties and provide open space amenities in the form of courtyards and child play areas. The project site is in a developed urban area that is currently well illuminated. Sources of illumination include freestanding streetlights, light fixtures on buildings, pole-mounted lights, traffic signals, and vehicle headlights. The project will be required to adhere to existing development standards to regulate light and glare, which would also be reviewed during the discretionary review process for the development project. The proposed development projects would have no adverse aesthetic impacts. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Focused Update. 22 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.2 - Agriculture and Forest Resources Would the project: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Impact Mitigation Incorporation a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the ❑ ❑ ❑ Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-agricultural use? b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act ❑ ❑ ❑ contract? c) Conflict with existing zoning for, or cause rezoning of, forest land (as defined in Public Resources Code section 12220(g)), timberland (as defined by Public Resources Code ❑ ❑ ❑ section 4526), or timberland zoned Timberland Production (as defined by Government Code section 51104 (g))? d) Result in loss of forest land or conversion of forest land to non-forest ❑ ❑ ❑ use? e) Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of Farmland to non- ❑ ❑ ❑ agricultural use or conversion of forest land to non-forest use? a-b) No Impact. The City of Vernon is an urbanized city, fully built out, and comprised of virtually all industrial uses, with a few commercial and residential uses scattered throughout the city. Based upon a review of maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program (FMMP) of the California Resources Agency, the project study area does not contain any land designated as "Prime Farmland," "Unique Farmland," or "Farmland of Statewide Importance."1 As such, no impact would occur. No Williamson Act contracts are active for any 1 California Department of Conservation. Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program, 2008. The City of Vernon is indicated within "Area Not Mapped" in 2010 maps of Los Angeles County. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 23 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts property within Vernon.Z All properties within Vernon are zoned Industrial; certain properties have additional overlay districts applied. Neither the Industrial zone nor any overlays are intended for agricultural uses. N o new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Update than as identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR. No impact would occur. c-d) No Impact. No timberland exists within the planning area. This condition precludes the possibility of conflicts with forest land zoning or loss of forest land as a result of implementation. Therefore, no impacts would result from the Proposed Focused Update. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Focused Update than as identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR. e) No Impact. Given the existing industrial and built-out nature of Vernon, the project would not result in any conversion of farmland or forestland to another use. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Focused Update than as identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR. Z California Department of Conservation. Williamson Act Program, 2007. 24 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.3 - Air Quality Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations. Would the project: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable ❑ ❑ ❑ air quality plan? b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality Se ❑ ❑ ❑ violation? c) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or se ❑ ❑ ❑ state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant i�r ❑ ❑ ❑ concentrations? e) Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of ❑ ❑ ❑ people? a) Less than Significant Impact. c-d) Potential Significant Impact. As identified in the Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance EIR, over the long term, implementation of General Plan policies could result in an increase in criteria pollutant emissions primarily due to related motor vehicle trips. Stationary sources and area sources—including emissions from natural gas combustion, landscape equipment, and solvents from surface coatings—would result in lesser quantities of criteria pollutant emissions. Stationary sources and diesel-fueled mobile sources would also generate emissions of toxic air contaminants JACs) including diesel particulate matter that could pose a health risk. While implementation of the Proposed Focused Update would likely have less than significant air quality impacts, the General Plan Amendment and Zoning Map Amendment propose changes in the land use designation of specific parcels (with introduction of two new General Plan overlay districts and three new Zoning Districts, and revisions to another existing overlay district, as applied in Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 25 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts Exhibits 2 and 3), and allowance of new uses that could result in an increase in development intensity, and a corresponding increase in vehicle trips and traffic that could trigger potentially significant air quality impacts. As such, implementation of the Proposed Update could result in a new significant air quality impact or a substantial increase in the severity of a previously identified air quality impact. Furthermore, the 2007 Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, while finding project-related impacts regarding air quality less than significant, found cumulative air quality impacts significant and unavoidable. Therefore, potential air quality impacts will be fully analyzed within a Supplemental EIR to the Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance EIR to be prepared for the proposed Focused Update. e) Less than Significant Impact. As indicated in the Initial Study completed for the 2007 Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, the majority of development anticipated to occur in Vernon would be predominantly industrial. New development associated with the Proposed Focused Amendments may be industrial, commercial, or residential in nature. Each new development will be required to comply with the South Coast Air Quality Management District's guidelines regarding odor control. In addition, the proposed Zoning Ordinance includes additional requirements to prohibit the emission of noxious odors into the outside air. Any impact associated with the Proposed Focused Update, would, as such, be beneficial, given the City's proposed measures to constrain odors from businesses. The proposed residential development project at 4675 52nd Drive, given its residential nature, would not involve any uses associated with odor complaints, as indicated in the CEQA Air Quality Handbook (such as agricultural operations, wastewater treatment plants, landfills, and some industrial operations). Compliance with existing regulations will ensure that impact will be less than significant. The proposed Emergency Shelter Overlay would likewise have no odor-producing uses. With regard to the proposed Trucking and Freight Overlay District, odors may be associated with diesel trucking activities; however, existing uses already generate/attract significant diesel truck traffic. Odors associated with new trucking or freight terminals constructed pursuant to revised zoning policy are not anticipated to be noticeable or significant relative to existing conditions. Expanded areas of the Commercial Overlay District are not anticipated to have more significant odor impacts than existing industrial uses have; odor impacts are likely to be less with commercial uses than industrial. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Update than those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR. 26 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.4 - Biological Resources Would the project: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species ❑ ❑ ❑ in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? b) Have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations, or by ❑ ❑ ❑ the California Department of Fish and Game or US Fish and Wildlife Service? c) Have a substantial adverse effect on federally protected wetlands as defined by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, ❑ ❑ ❑ coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means? d) Interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native ❑ ❑ ❑ resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites? e) Conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a tree ❑ ❑ ❑ preservation policy or ordinance? Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 27 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts f) Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other ❑ ❑ ❑ ie approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan? a-f) No Impact. As indicated in the Initial Study completed for the 2007 Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, Vernon is a fully built-out community, and no native habitat remains. Given the industrial nature of the majority of the city, no unique biological resources or habitat conservation areas are located within the planning area. No species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, are known to exist within the Planning Area. According to the federal National Wetlands Inventory, the project site does not contain any wetlands and the proposed project would not disturb any offsite wetlands.3 The Los Angeles River, where it runs through Vernon, is concrete lined and does not function as riparian habitat. The City of Vernon does not have any adopted tree preservation ordinance or other policies protecting biological resources. Vernon does not contain any Habitat Conservation Plano, Natural Community Conservation Plans, or other approved local, regional or state habitat conservation plan. No impact will occur. No new or substantially more severe impact would occur with implementation of the Proposed Focused Update. 3 United States Fish and Wildlife Service.

As indicated in the Initial Study associated with the 2007 Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, Vernon is largely built out and does not contain any known archaeological resources. Industrial uses have been the predominant land use in the City since the early 1900s. Vernon contains many industrial buildings that house diverse industries, some of which also display architecture of distinct periods and styles, as indicated in the General Plan Resources Element. Adoption of the Proposed Focused Update will not result in any action that will directly cause the elimination or alteration of any building that may have historic significance. The General Plan Resources Element contains policies that work to protect potentially historic buildings and sites; the focused update would not revise or remove any of these policies. No buildings are located at 4675 52nd Drive housing site. Given that the site was previously developed and graded for past developments, any buried archaeological resources would have already been uncovered or destroyed at the time of initial development of the site. Impacts related to historical and archaeological resources for the Proposed Focused Update would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR; impacts would be less than significant. c-d) No Impact. Given the highly built out and industrial character of Vernon, no buried paleontological resources or human remains or cemeteries are anticipated to be disturbed by the proposed project. Existing law (Section 7050.5 of the California Health and Safety Code and Sections 5097.94 and 5097.98 of the Public Resources Code) requires the protection and proper treatment of any prehistoric or historic artifacts or human remains encountered during excavation activities. Implementation of General Plan and Zoning Ordinance policy and standards and application of existing law on an individual project basis will allow any potential paleontological resources or human remains uncovered to be properly treated. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 29 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts With regard to the potential housing development at 4675 52nd Drive, since the project site was developed in the past (although it is vacant now as all buildings have been demolished), no paleontological resources or human remains or cemeteries are anticipated to be disturbed by the proposed project. Any buried paleontological resources or human remains likely would have been uncovered or destroyed at that time of initial development of the site. In the unlikely event that paleontological resources or human remains are uncovered, existing regulatory procedures pursuant to Section 7050.5 of the California Health and Safety Code and Sections 5097.94 and 5097.98 of the Public Resources Code would be required, and impacts to resources and/or human remains would be avoided. No impact will occur with application of these existing regulations. Impacts of the Proposed Update would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR; no impact would occur. 30 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.6 - Geology and Soils Would the project: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Expose people or structures to potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death involving: i) Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as delineated on the most recent Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist for the area or ❑ ❑ ❑ based on other substantial evidence of a known fault? Refer to Division of Mines and Geology Special Publication 42. ii) Strong seismic ground shaking? El El El iii) Seismic-related ground failure, including liquefaction? ❑ ❑ ❑ iv) Landslides? El b) Result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the project, and potentially result in on- ❑ ❑ ❑ or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction or collapse? d) Be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18-1-B of the Uniform Building Code (1997), ❑ ❑ ❑ creating substantial risks to life or property? Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 31 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts e) Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative waste water disposal systems where sewers are not ❑ ❑ ❑ Se available for the disposal of waste water? a.i) Less than Significant Impact. No portion of Vernon is traversed by a known fault, as delineated on the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map.6 As concluded in the 2007 Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, the potential for surface fault rupture is considered to be low. Impacts of the Proposed Focused Update would be similar to those identified in the prior Program EIR and would be less than significant. a.ii) Less than Significant Impact. As noted above in a.i), the California Department of Conservation reports no known faults in Vernon. However, the proposed project and all future development proposed pursuant to General Plan land use policy and Zoning Ordinance standards will be subject to ground shaking impacts should a major earthquake occur in the future in the surrounding seismically active Southern California region. The Safety Element of the General Plan indicates that the Las Ciengas Fault runs along the northeast boundary of the City. Furthermore, blind thrust faults may be located in the vicinity. Blind thrust faults lack superficial ground features normally associated with thrust faults that have recently experienced seismic activity. Potential impacts include injury or loss of life and property damage. Buildings and structures proposed pursuant to the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance will be subject to the seismic design criteria of the California Building Code (CBC) and any project- specific design requirements. Adherence to these requirements will reduce the potential of the building from collapsing during an earthquake, thereby minimizing injury and loss of life. Although structures may be damaged during earthquakes, adherence to seismic design requirements will minimize damage to property and structures because the structure would be designed not to collapse. The CBC is intended to provide minimum requirements to prevent major structural failure and loss of life. Adherence to existing regulations will reduce the risk of loss, injury, and death; impacts of the Proposed Focused Update would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, and would be less than significant. a.iii) Less than Significant Impact. As indicated in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, portions of the south and eastern sectors of the City are susceptible to liquefaction.'$ However, all development occurring pursuant to the updated General Plan and Zoning Ordinance will be constructed in compliance with the CBC, and will incorporate all seismic safety features as required. New development will consist primarily of new industrial buildings that replace existing, older structures; the new structures will incorporate improved seismic safety features and thus, a beneficial effect of improving seismic safety may result. The City enforces stringent safety criteria for new construction, including site-specific soils investigation and the use of engineering techniques specific to each site that overcomes any potential 6 California State Department of Conservation.

The proposed project would not modify any of these existing standards and regulations, and impacts of the Proposed Focused Update would be similar to those identified in the General Plan EIR and would be less than significant. a.iv) No Impact. The City of Vernon is virtually flat. No portion of the planning area is indicated to be within a State of California Seismic Hazard Zone landslide zone of required investigation.'," The proposed residential project at 4675 52nd Drive would be constructed on a flat site with no potential for landslides. Impacts of the Proposed Focused Update would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR; no impact would occur. b) Less than Significant Impact. The Initial Study for the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR indicated that proposed new construction pursuant to General Plan land use policy could result in grading and earthwork that would expose soils, increasing the chance for soil erosion. Implementation of the Proposed Focused Update would not change any of these conditions or result in more significant impacts, as no new areas that were previously undeveloped would have new potential for development. Only the allowed uses on these sites and other procedural requirements have been revised by the Proposed Focused Update. With regard to 4675 52nd Drive, future housing construction on this site is subject to SCAQMD Rule 403 and the erosion control requirements of the CBC to prevent wind-blown and stormwater- related erosion. Rule 403 will minimize wind-blown erosion by requiring stabilization of disturbed soils during construction activities through measures as such daily watering. Required erosion control plans will ensure that measures are implemented at project sites to prevent or minimize erosion due to rain, ensuring that downstream water bodies are protected from sedimentation. Projects will continue to be subject to standard erosion control and engineering techniques set forth in the Municipal Code, including National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements. Impacts of the Proposed Focused Update would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. c-d) Less than Significant Impact. As indicated above in a.i - a.iv), the Proposed Focused Update would result in less than significant impacts. The Initial Study for the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR noted that the City requires geotechnical investigations for all new development in seismic and geologic hazard areas. Where development would be proposed on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable or located on expansive soil, the applicant will be required to use specific engineering and construction standards and must comply with the City and state building codes. With regard to development at 4675 52nd Drive, a project-specific geotechnical investigation would be required, consistent with standard City procedures. The recommendations of the geotechnical report will be implemented during site preparation and grading. The CBC requires special design considerations for foundations of structures built on soils with expansion indices greater than 20. The CBC also includes a requirement that any City- approved recommendations contained in the soil report be made conditions of the building permit. Compliance with existing CBC regulations would limit hazard impacts arising from unstable soils to less than significant. Impacts related to on- or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction, collapse, or expansive soils would be less than significant with implementation of the proposed geotechnical recommendations. Impacts of the Proposed Focused Update would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. 9 California Resources Agency, Department of Conservation.

New development would be required to connect to public sewer service pursuant to City policies. No impact would occur. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Focused Update. 34 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.7 - Greenhouse Gas Emissions Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a ❑ ❑ ❑ significant impact on the ie environment? b) Conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions ie ❑ ❑ ❑ of greenhouse gases? a-b) Potentially Significant Impact. While implementation of the Proposed Focused Update would likely have less than significant greenhouse gas emission impacts, the General Plan and Zoning Amendments propose changes in the land use designation/zoning of specific parcels (as indicated in Exhibits 2 and 3) that would result in a potential increase in development intensity and a corresponding increase in vehicle trips and traffic, which could have potentially significant greenhouse gas emission impacts. As such, implementation of the Proposed Focused Update could result in a new significant impact. Therefore, potential greenhouse gas emission impacts will be fully addressed within a Supplemental EIR to the 2007 Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR to be prepared for the Proposed Focused Update. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 35 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.8 - Hazards and Hazardous Materials Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or if ❑ ❑ ❑ disposal of hazardous materials? b) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the ❑ ❑ ❑ release of hazardous materials into the environment? c) Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste ❑ ❑ ❑ within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? d) Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section ❑ ❑ ❑ 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment? e) For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the ❑ ❑ ❑ project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? f) For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project result in a safety hazard for people ❑ ❑ ❑ residing or working in the project area? g) Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or ❑ ❑ ❑ emergency evacuation plan? 36 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation h) Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving wildland fires, including where wildlands are ❑ ❑ ❑ adjacent to urbanized areas or ie where residences are intermixed with wildlands? a-c) Potentially Significant Impact. Hazardous materials are routinely used and transported throughout Vernon on the local streets and via rail. Current and future uses will continue to be exposed to hazards from the routine use, disposal, and transport of hazardous materials. In addition, future development could produce hazardous materials and waste. Because of the new potentially significant impact associated with these issues, hazardous materials will be fully addressed within a Supplemental EIR to the 2007 Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR to be prepared for the Proposed Focused Update. d) Potentially Significant Impact. Several sites within Vernon are included on the Department of Toxic Substances Control Hazardous Waste and Substance List (Cortese List of hazardous materials sites). Redevelopment of industrial sites has the potential to result in discovery of contaminated soils and other hazardous materials. Because of the new potentially significant impact associated with these issues, hazardous waste sites will be fully addressed within a Supplemental EIR to the 2007 Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR to be prepared for the Proposed Focused Update. e-f) No Impact. No airport land use plan applies within the planning area. The nearest airport is Compton Airport, located approximately eight miles to the south. No changes associated with the Proposed Focused Update would impact air traffic. No adverse impacts associated with airport operations would result. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Update than as identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR. g) Less than Significant Impact. The project proposes no changes to the City's Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) Multi-Hazard Functional Plan (MHFP), and thus would not impair implementation of the SEMS or MHFP. Proposed development under the Proposed Focused Update would be subject to review by the City of Vernon Police and Fire Departments for compliance with emergency response standards and adopted emergency response plans. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. h) No Impact. The City of Vernon is a fully built-out community and does not contain nor is adjacent to any wildlands. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR; no impact would occur. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 37 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.9 - Hydrology and Water Quality Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local groundwater table level (e.g., ❑ ❑ ❑ the production rate of pre-existing nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been granted)? c) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, in a ❑ ❑ ❑ manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site? d) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or ❑ ❑ ❑ amount of surface runoff in a manner which would result in flooding on- or off-site? e) Create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned stormwater drainage systems or provide ❑ ❑ ❑ substantial additional sources of polluted runoff? f) Otherwise substantially degrade water quality? ❑ ❑ ❑ g) Place housing within a 100-year flood hazard area as mapped on a federal Flood Hazard Boundary or ❑ ❑ ❑ Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map? 38 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation h) Place within a 100-year flood hazard area structures which would ❑ ❑ ❑ impede or redirect flood flows? ie i) Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving flooding, including ❑ ❑ ❑ flooding as a result of the failure of ie a levee or dam? j) Inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow? ❑ ❑ ❑ ie a) Less than Significant. As analyzed in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, implementation of existing regulations and General Plan policies would ensure that water quality standards and waste discharge requirements are not violated. As a co-permittee under Los Angeles County's MS4 National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit, the City is required to implement all pertinent regulations of the program to control pollution discharges from new development. These regulations reduce pollutant loading through the implementation of Best Management Practices (BMPs) and other control measures that minimize or eliminate pollutants from urban runoff, thereby protecting downstream water resources. BMPs implemented to address commercial pollutant sources generally involve maintenance of storm drain facilities, parking lots, vegetated areas, and educational programs. Violations of water quality standards due to urban runoff can be prevented through the continued implementation of existing regional water quality regulations. The proposed project, including revisions to the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, would not interfere with the implementation of NPDES water quality regulations and standards. The proposed residential development project at 4675 52"d Drive would disturb approximately 2.06 acres of land and therefore will be subject to National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit requirements during construction activities, in addition to standard NPDES operational requirements. The proposed project will require submittal of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), which will include BMPs to protect water quality during construction activities. The City will require BMPs as listed in the California Stormwater Quality Association's California Storm Water Best Management Practice Handbooks. These measures, which include resident/owner education, activity restrictions, parking lot sweeping, basin inspection, landscaping, roof runoff controls, efficient irrigation, slope and channel protection, storm drain signage, trash racks, and trash storage areas, will reduce pollutants in storm water runoff and reduce non-storm water discharges to the City's stormwater drainage through controlling the discharge of pollutants. Operational BMPs will be identified in a Stormwater Runoff Management Plan that will be submitted to the City for review and approval. Impacts related to violation of water quality standards will be less than significant with implementation of these existing regulations. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 39 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts b) Less than Significant Impact. Water service for Vernon is provided by three service providers: City of Vernon Water Department, California Water Service Company (Cal Water) - East Los Angeles District, and Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3. Some of the water supplied within the planning area comes from groundwater wells. The General Plan Amendment and Zoning Map propose changes in the land use designation of specific parcels (with introduction of two new General Plan overlay districts, expansion of another overlay district, and three new Zoning Overlay Districts as illustrated in Exhibits 2 and 3); allowance of new uses could result in an increase in development intensity. However, the proposed allowed new uses would likely use substantially less water than industrial uses, which are, in general, considered to be high-intensity water users. Based on water demand factors provided in the 2010 Urban Water Management Plan for Cal Water's East Los Angeles District, the year 2015 projected water demand at a metered service of a multifamily residential development is 2.8 acre-feet/year. The projected demand for the average metered industrial user is 20.9 acre-feet/year.11 Given that proposed residential uses and commercial uses will in general consume far less water annually that the average industrial use (approximately 2.9 acre- feet/year and 1.0 acre-feet per/year, respectively), impact of the land use changes will be less than significant. The project site at 4675 52"d Drive is served by Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3. As of August 2012, Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3 had an adjudicated supply of 1,400 acre-feet and a demand of approximately 1,350 acre-feet, with a residual supply of at least 50 acre-feet of water.12 This would be more than ample to accommodate the proposed development at 4675 52"d Drive. Impacts would be similar and less severe than those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, and would continue to be less than significant. c) Less than Significant Impact. A significant impact would occur if the proposed project substantially altered the drainage pattern of an existing stream or river so that erosion or siltation would result. No natural, non-concrete lined rivers traverse the City of Vernon. The Los Angeles River is a significant water feature; however, it is fully concrete lined and its course would not be altered in any way via the project. The project involves no changes to this flood control channel. With regard to future development project proposed pursuant to Land Use and Housing Element policy, site drainage plans are required by the City of Vernon and would be reviewed by the City. Erosion and siltation reduction measures would be required during construction consistent with an approved Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) to demonstrate compliance with the City's NPDES permit. With regard to 4675 52"d Drive in particular, no substantial grading is proposed to the relatively flat site; thus, drainage patterns would not be disrupted. Erosion and siltation reduction measures would be required. At the completion of construction, the project would consist of impervious surfaces and landscaped areas, and would therefore not be prone to substantial erosion. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. d-e) Less than Significant Impact. As was previously discussed in Section 4.9.c above, the proposed project would not result in an alteration of the drainage pattern or increase in flows that would result in flooding on or off site because the City of Vernon is fully developed with buildings, pavement, and other impervious surfaces. Any new development would be required to comply 11 California Water Service Company. 2010 Urban Water Management Plan - East Los Angeles District.

The existing storm drain system is adequate to accommodate stormwater runoff. Impacts would be similar to or less than those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. f) Less than Significant Impact. All future development projects pursuant to General Plan and Zoning Ordinance policy will be required to comply with water quality requirements of the U.S. EPA, Los Angeles RWQC6, and the City of Vernon. Compliance with existing requirements would reduce water quality impacts to a less-than-significant level. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance EIR and would be less than significant. g-h) Less than Significant Impact. As indicated in the General Plan Safety Element, no portion of the planning area lies within a 100-year flood zone. A very small portion of the City in the southeastern corner is identified by FEMA to be within a 500-year flood zone; this area does include the Housing Overlay and proposed development at 4675 52"d Drive. Since no areas of the City are located within a 100-year flood zone, impacts associated with the project related to housing or flood hazard area structures would be less than significant. No new or more severe impacts than those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR would occu r. i) Less than Significant Impact. As indicated in the General Plan Safety Element, nearly all of Vernon lies within the potential inundation areas for Hansen Dam and/or Sepulveda Dam, which are located more than 20 miles northwest of the City. In the unlikely event that a catastrophic earthquake causes the collapse of either of these dams, water and debris would flow to and then generally along the Los Angeles River in a fairly narrow stream before spreading out over a swath of the coastal plain several miles wide, including Vernon. In this case, the flow would take 8 to 19 hours to reach the City. As such, risk to human life is minimal as the long delay should give ample time for emergency responders to respond. Procedures are outlined in the City's SEMS Multi-Hazard Functional Plan (MHFP). Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. j) No Impact. The City of Vernon lies approximately 12 miles from the Pacific Ocean and therefore is not subject to tsunamis. No large water bodies exist in the City that would present seiche hazards. Topography in the City is virtually flat. No natural features exist that would create mudflows. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 41 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.10 - Land Use and Planning Would the project: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Impact Mitigation Incorporation a) Physically divide an established community? ❑ ❑ ❑ ie b) Conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project (including, but not limited to the general plan, specific plan, ❑ ❑ ❑ local coastal program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect? c) Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural ❑ ❑ ❑ community conservation plan? a) No Impact. The proposed project would not physically divide an established community. Citywide, the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates will continue to allow the recycling of established industrial uses to new industrial uses and commercial uses. The Housing Element also identifies two sites where housing could be considered, and one site which could accommodate a potential emergency shelter. At a single site at 4975 52"d Drive, residential uses will be permitted via the proposed Housing Overlay, pursuant to the proposed General Plan and Zoning maps. At the northwest corner of the City, the Emergency Shelter Overlay will apply to a single property. The site at 4975 52"d Drive is surrounded by residential uses to the south (in the City of Maywood) and industrial uses to the north. Given that the site is located at Vernon's south border, the proposed project will not divide an established industrial community. The project does not propose construction of any roadway, flood control channel, or other structure that would physically divide any portion of the community. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR; no impact will occur. b) Less than Significant Impact. The proposed project involves focused updates of the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, with these objectives: 1) allow for a limited number of new housing units pursuant to the City's good governance initiative, 2) expand allowed uses in the north part of Vernon by creating a new Trucking and Freight Overlay, 3) extend the Commercial Overlay District to allow additional commercial development to support industrial users and permit ancillary commercial uses on weekends, and 4) provide clarifications in the Zoning Ordinance text. The intent of the simultaneous General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates is to provide for consistency between the two documents. No other agency has jurisdiction over land use issues in Vernon. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. 42 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts c) No Impact. As discussed in Checklist Response 4.4.f above, the planning area is not part of any habitat conservation plan, natural community conservation plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan. As such, no impact will occur. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Focused Update. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 43 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.11 - Mineral Resources Would the project: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of value to the region and the ❑ ❑ ❑ ie residents of the state? b) Result in the loss of availability of a locally-important mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local ❑ ❑ ❑ general plan, specific plan or other ie land use plan? a-b) No Impact. The City is a fully urbanized area with predominantly industrial uses. As indicated in the Initial Study for the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance EIR, no mineral resource areas exist in Vernon. The City's General Plan does not identify any locally important mineral resources, and there are no known mining operations within the city or its immediate vicinity. Development pursuant to the proposed project will not result in the loss of a known mineral resource. No impact will result. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Focused Update. 44 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.12 - Noise Would the project result in: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or + ❑ ❑ ❑ applicable standards of other agencies? b) Exposure of persons to or generation of excessive groundborne vibration or ❑ ❑ ❑ groundborne noise levels? c) A substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing ❑ ❑ ❑ without the project? d) A substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels ❑ ❑ ❑ existing without the project? e) For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the ❑ ❑ ❑ project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? f) For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project expose people residing or working ❑ ❑ ❑ in the project area to excessive noise levels? a-d) Potentially Significant Impact. The 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR analyzed potential noise impacts related to new development permitted under the General Plan and found potential impacts to be less than significant with implementation of General Plan policies and EIR mitigation measures. The proposed project includes changes to land use designations of specific parcels (shown in Exhibits 2 and 3) that could result in an increase in development intensity and new sensitive receptors. The potential development projects resulting from these proposed land use designation changes, including proposed residential development at 4675 52nd Drive and an emergency shelter, could trigger potentially significant noise impacts not Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 45 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts previously analyzed in the 2007 Program EIR. Therefore, noise impacts, both short-term and long-term, will be further analyzed in the Supplemental EIR to be prepared for the Proposed Focused Update. e-f) No Impact. As indicated in the Initial Study completed for the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, no part of Vernon is located within an area covered by an airport land use plan, and no part of the City is located within the vicinity of a private airstrip. The nearest airport is in Compton, approximately eight miles to the south. Thus, adoption and implementation of the Proposed Focused Update will not result in airport noise impacts on people residing or working within the Planning Area. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Focused Update. 46 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.13 - Population and Housing Would the project: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Induce substantial population growth in an area, either directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly ❑ ❑ ie ❑ (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? b) Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, necessitating the construction of replacement ❑ ❑ ❑ housing elsewhere? c) Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the construction of replacement ❑ ❑ ❑ housing elsewhere? a) Less than Significant Impact. The proposed General Plan Amendment includes goals, policies, and implementation programs that will allow for very limited housing development at specific locations. While the City has had a long-standing policy to prohibit any new residential uses due to extensive industrial operations throughout Vernon, the City's good governance initiative and the Regional Housing Needs Allocation of two units have led the City to propose two overlay zones that will allow limited housing. Between 20 and 61 new units could be accommodated, as well as an emergency shelter. The emergency (homeless) shelter would not house permanent residents. With implementation of this policy, the Vernon Planning Area has the potential to accommodate a population of approximately 328 residents13 at build out; this represents more almost a tripling of the current estimated population of 112 (2010 Census). This level of growth has not yet been accounted for in regional planning documents, as the City's good governance initiative and efforts to increase the voting populace in Vernon are recent changes. These changes will be reflected in future regional planning documents. Thus, while the potential tripling of the local population may seem significant in percentage terms, the actual population increase in real numbers is small. The potential increase is directly responsive to the City's good governance policy to increase the local populace and foster fair voting procedures. Also, in terms of secondary impacts associated with the anticipated population increase, the analysis in this Initial Study indicates that the new housing and residents will not create significant environmental impacts. 13 This population projection assumes 60 units, pursuant to proposed land use policy, and extrapolates based on existing (2010) household size, which is estimated at 3.6 persons per household. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 47 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts b-c) No Impact. The recycling of uses permitted by land use policy would not remove any existing housing. The City owns virtually all of the existing housing in Vernon and has indicated its intention to retain the units. The Housing Element includes policies that provide for the retention of the existing 31 housing units in the City that are economically and physically sound. Proposed development at 2675 52"d Drive would take place on an existing vacant parcel and would not displace housing or people. Implementation of the Proposed Focused Update would not displace substantial numbers of existing housing or people. Impacts would be similar to or less than those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. 48 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.14 - Public Services Would the project result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Fire protection? El El ie El b) Police protection? El El ie El c) Schools? d) Parks? e) Other public facilities? a-b) Less than Significant Impact. As indicated in the Initial Study completed for the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, development pursuant to proposed General Plan policy and zoning regulations will not substantially increase the business population in Vernon since limited vacant land exists. New development will consist of the recycling of development on existing properties. This condition continues to be true for the Proposed Focused Update. As a general practice, City staff examines each development application to determine site-specific fire protection and other safety needs. City staff will review the site plan for any potential development at 4675 52"d Drive and ensure it meets emergency access requirements. Vernon maintains its own fire and police departments, and as part of the budgeting process each year provides funding to ensure that services adequately meet any changing needs in the City. Therefore, the potential impact on fire and police services will continue to reviewed with each development proposal and annually. Through existing practices and procedures, the City will be able to meet and maintain acceptable service ratios. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, and would be less than significant. c) Less than Significant Impact. The only school located in Vernon is Vernon City Elementary School. Maywood Elementary School is located close by in the City of Maywood. Both schools are located within the Los Angeles Unified School District. Proposed residential development completed pursuant to General Plan and Zoning Ordinance policy would be limited to the Housing Overlay (limited to potential housing sites identified in the Housing Element and consistent with Land Use policy). The proposed residential project will result in incremental population growth and potential associated growth in students within the Los Angeles Unified School District. I n accordance with the California Government Code, standard school facility impact fees will be paid to offset any incremental impacts of the proposed project. With the payment of the fee, impacts to school facilities would be less than significant. Given the limited scale of the proposed Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 49 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts residential land use changes, impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR and would be less than significant. d-e) Less than Significant Impact. The proposed project would introduce a new Housing Overlay in the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. The overlay would allow for a limited number of new housing units (maximum of 60 potential units total). The proposed residential project at 4675 52"d Drive will result in population growth that would incrementally impact recreation facilities, given the potential 35 to 45 new housing units that could be supported on the site. Each of the proposed development schemes the City has received provides for on-site open space areas for use by future residents. The City has no other existing recreation facilities. As such, it can be assumed that other existing recreation facilities in neighboring jurisdictions would potentially be utilized by the proposed project's residents. As part of the good governance reform measures, the Vernon City Council adopted a Resolution (2011-149) on August 25, 2011 which established a fund for Regional Community Recreational Facilities and Environmental and Community Benefit Fund. A total of $3.2 million has been set aside in the 2012-2013 City budget for the fund and for funding regional recreational facilities. Negotiations have been ongoing between Vernon officials and representatives from the City of Huntington Park and Los Angeles County (relative to the unincorporated community of Boyle Heights). While the City does not have a process to assess parks fees due to the limited potential for new housing in the City, any potential impact on recreational facilities in neighboring jurisdictions resulting from increasing the residential population of Vernon by up to 60 new housing units would be addressed through this existing fund, and would be less than significant. Impacts to any other public facilities, such as libraries, would similarly be less than significant since the limited increase in population is not of a size that would required the expansion of existing or construction of new public facilities. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR. 50 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.15 - Recreation Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Would the project increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial ❑ ❑ ❑ physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? b) Does the project include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities which might ❑ ❑ ❑ have an adverse physical effect on the environment? a) Less than Significant Impact. Refer to the discussion in Section 4.14d) above. Impacts to recreation would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, and would be less than significant. b) Less Than Significant Impact. The project, through new land use policies and the potential development at 4675 52nd Drive, would incrementally increase the local population and therefore potentially impact surrounding and regional parks. However, given the project scale and limited allowance for new residential units in the City, and further provided that the City will require on- site open space for any new housing projects, the project does not necessitate the construction of new parks. Any expansion or new construction of recreation facilities would be subject to its own environmental review pursuant to CEQA. Impacts would be less than significant. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 51 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.16 - Transportation and Traffic Would the project: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Mitigation Impact Incorporation a) Conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance or policy establishing measures of effectiveness for the performance of the circulation system, taking into account all modes of transportation including mass transit and non-motorized ❑ ❑ ❑ travel and relevant components of the circulation system, including but not limited to intersections, streets, highways and freeways, pedestrian and bicycle paths, and mass transit? b) Conflict with an applicable congestion management program, including, but not limited to level of service standards and travel demand measures, or other ❑ ❑ ❑ standards established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? c) Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either an increase in traffic levels or a change ❑ ❑ ❑ in location that results in substantial safety risks? d) Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) ❑ ❑ ❑ or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? e) Result in inadequate emergency access? ❑ ❑ ❑ 52 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts f) Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs regarding public transit, bicycle, or pedestrian facilities, or otherwise decrease the ❑ ❑ ❑ performance or safety of such facilities? a-b) Potentially Significant Impact. The 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR identified impacts on traffic on local surface streets and freeways as significant and unavoidable at the program and cumulative levels. Mitigation was included to reduce impacts, including: 1) conducting a study to determine if an Automated Traffic Surveillance and Control System (ATSAC) would be a beneficial and cost-effective method for the City to operate and maintain; 2) coordination with local jurisdictions, rail companies, and Metropolitan Transportation Authority regarding transportation improvements; 3) coordination with Caltrans and other local government associations regarding I-710 freeway improvements; 4) Soto Street widening and right-of-way dedications to meet Circulation and Infrastructure Element goals; and 5) capacity enhancements at Santa Fe Avenue and 38t" Street. However, full implementation of these measures would be contingent upon actions by outside agencies or funding that has not yet been secured; as such, impacts were found to be significant and unavoidable. The proposed project includes General Plan and Zoning Map amendments to establish a Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay district, expand the boundaries of the Commercial Overlay district, permit housing at 4675 52nd Drive, accommodate emergency housing within the Emergency Housing Overlay, and permit housing at identified sites in the Housing Element (as shown in Exhibits 2, 3, and 4). Over the long term, development pursuant to land use policy and zoning regulations could result in an increase in development intensity and a corresponding increase in vehicle trips and traffic in certain areas of Vernon. Accordingly, potentially new or substantially more severe significant transportation impacts could occur with the adoption of the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance/Map Amendments that will need to be further analyzed in a Supplemental EIR to be prepared for the Proposed Focused Update. c) No Impact. No airport land use plan applies to any area of Vernon. The nearest airport is Compton Airport, which is located approximately eight miles to the south. Implementation of the Proposed Update would have no effect on air traffic patterns at Compton Airport. No impact would occur. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur. d) No Impact. The Proposed Focused Update does not propose any changes to the General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element. The existing Zoning Ordinance includes planning and project design standards intended to address such issues as traffic hazards for individual development proposals. The Proposed Focused Update includes additional language to ensure truck maneuvering does not occur near driveways to limit potential traffic hazards. No changes are proposed to roadways beyond those considered in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR. Minor edits to the Zoning Ordinance would increase traffic safety in the vicinity of development sites. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur as a result of project adoption and implementation. e) Less Than Significant Impact. As indicated in d) above, no changes are proposed to the Circulation and Infrastructure Elements, and revisions to the Zoning Ordinance regarding parking and loading are intended to enhance traffic safety and emergency access. With regard to the proposed residential development project at 4675 52nd Drive, project access will be via 52nd Drive. Through review of the project site plan, the City will confirm that turning radii for emergency vehicles accessing the site and are adequate serve the use. Therefore, the project Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 53 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts would have less than significant impacts on the provision of adequate emergency access. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Focused Update. f) Less than Significant Impact. The Proposed Focused Update does not include any proposed revisions to the Circulation and Infrastructure Elements. As noted in the Initial Study for the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, the General Plan includes policies to coordinate transportation access and public transit. No changes are proposed to these policies. Thus, the Proposed Focused Update would not conflict with such policies, and no impact would occur. No new or substantially more severe impacts would occur with implementation of the Proposed Focused Update. 54 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.17 - Utilities and Service Systems Would the project: Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Impact Mitigation Incorporation a) Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the applicable Regional Water Quality Control ❑ ❑ ❑ Board? b) Require or result in the construction of new water or wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction ❑ ❑ ❑ of which could cause significant environmental effects? c) Require or result in the construction of new storm water drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction of which ❑ ❑ ❑ could cause significant environmental effects? d) Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project from existing entitlements and ❑ ❑ ❑ resources, or are new or expanded entitlements needed? e) Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate ❑ ❑ ❑ capacity to serve the project's projected demand in addition to the provider's existing commitments? f) Be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to accommodate the project's solid ❑ ❑ ❑ waste disposal needs? g) Comply with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations ❑ ❑ ❑ related to solid waste? Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 55 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts a) Less than Significant Impact. All new development will be required to comply with wastewater treatment requirements set forth by Regional Water Quality Control Board, Los Angeles Region and Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County. As indicated in the Initial Study completed for the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, impacts would be less than significant. With regard to proposed development at 4675 52nd Drive, the project would involve replacing a vacant lot (formerly occupied by an industrial user) with residential dwelling units. The proposed residential units will discharge common wastewater from lavatory and kitchen activities. Such discharges will not require upgrades or new technology to be installed at the wastewater treatment facility to ensure continued compliance with wastewater discharge requirements. Impacts will be similar and no more severe than those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, and would continue to be less than significant. b,c,e) Less than Significant Impact. As indicated in the Initial Study completed for the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, new development pursuant to General Plan land use policy could intensify some uses on properties. However, the City will require that each individual project be adequately served by water, sewer, and drainage improvements, and connection fees for regional facilities would be paid. Connection fees contribute to construction of new regional systems and facilities as need to accommodate growth. Impact would continue to be less than significant. d) Less than Significant Impact. Three water agencies supply water to properties in Vernon: the City of Vernon Water Department, California Water Service Company (Cal Water) - East Los Angeles District, and Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3. Industrial businesses will continue to be the preponderant water users in Vernon, consistent with current land use policy. However, proposed General Plan land use policy changes would allow for some conversion of industrial to commercial and residential uses, including the proposed multifamily residential development at 4675 52nd Drive. Based on water demand factors provided in the 2010 Urban Water Management Plan for Cal Water's East Los Angeles District, the year 2015 projected water demand at a metered service of a multifamily residential development is 2.8 acre-feet/year. The projected demand for the average metered industrial user is 20.9 acre-feet/year.14 As indicated in 4.9b) above, given that a commercial or residential use will consume far less water annually that the average industrial use, impact of the land use changes will be less than significant. Furthermore, the project site at 4675 52nd Drive is served by Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3. As of August 2012, Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3 had an adjudicated supply of 1,400 acre-feet, and a demand of approximately 1,350 acre-feet, with a residual supply of at least 50 acre-feet of water.15 This would be more than ample to accommodate the proposed development at 4675 52nd Drive, given water usage estimates. Impacts would be similar and less severe than those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, and would continue to be less than significant. f-g) Less than Significant Impact. All development pursuant to General Plan policy and the Zoning Ordinance will be required to comply with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations related to the disposal of solid waste. With regard to waste volume, the very limited allowance for residential use at 4675 52nd Drive (as opposed to industrial) under the proposed General Plan Amendment is not anticipated to generate significant additional solid waste; in fact, the residential use would generate less waste. As concluded in the 2007 Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, long-term implementation of land use policy less than significant 14 California Water Service Company. 2010 Urban Water Management Plan - East Los Angeles District.

Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 Program EIR, and would be less than significant. Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 57 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts 4.18 - Mandatory Findings of Significance Potentially Less Than Less Than No Significant Significant Significant Impact Impact with Impact Mitigation Incorporation a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self- sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal ❑ ❑ ❑ community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but ❑ ❑ ❑ cumulatively considerable? ie c) Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects ❑ ❑ ❑ on human beings, either directly or ie indirectly? a) Less Than Significant Impact. As discussed in Section 4.4, Biological Resources and Section 4.5, Cultural Resources, the Proposed Update does not have the potential to substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self- sustaining levels, eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 2007 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Program EIR, and would be less than significant. b) Potentially Significant Impact. While significant cumulative growth impacts relative to air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, noise, and transportation are not anticipated due to implementation of the General Plan Amendments, Zoning Map and Zoning Ordinance revisions, or the proposed project at 4675 52"d Drive, new significant or substantially more severe cumulative impacts in these areas could occur as a result of the Proposed Focused Update, which propose changes in the land use designation of specific parcels. These changes could result in an increase in development intensity and resulting increase in air quality impacts, greenhouse gas emissions, the exposure of persons to hazards and hazardous materials, the exposure of persons to noise, and transportation system impacts. Accordingly, such impacts could be potentially new or 58 Initial Study 4 Evaluation of Environmental Impacts substantially more severe significant impacts and will be analyzed in a Supplemental EIR to be prepared for the Proposed Focused Update. c) Potentially Significant Impact. As discussed in Section 4.3 Air Quality, Section 4.7 Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Section 4.8 Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Section 4.12 Noise, and Section 4.16 Transportation/Traffic, potential impacts in these areas could create new or substantially more severe environmental effects that would adversely affect human beings. Such effects will be analyzed in a Supplemental EIR to be prepared for the Proposed Focused Update.

LA-5/710-VAR, SCH#2007061031 Dear Mr. Wilson: Thank you for including the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in the environmental review process for the City of Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update. Based on the information received, we have the following comments: To fully evaluate the potential impacts to the State Highway System at the General Plan build- out, a traffic study is necessary and should be prepared prior to preparing the Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR). The traffic study should include the following information: 1. Analysis of Interstate 5 (1-5) and Interstate 710 (I-710) freeways, including all affected on/off ramps. 2. Trip generation, trip distribution, mode choice, and trip assignment. 3. Traffic volumes and level-of-service calculations for major, Including existing, project, cumulative, and project plus cumulative traffic analysis. 4. An analysis of future transportation infrastructure improvements, including improvement to the mainline freeway and freeway on/off-ramps. 5. The General Plan should include an analysis of goods movement activities within the City, such as trucking operations and rail freight operations. It should also include intermodal rail freight/trucking operations, retail and manufacturing warehouse distribution facilities, and a summary of origin and destination. The Goods Movement activities should also include current level of operation and future system capacity. "Caltrans improves mobility across California" Mr. Kevin Wilson September 20, 2012 Page 2 of 2 6. Transportation Corridor Studies that may involve implementing congestion pricing for trucks using new local highway facilities such as along the I-710 Freeway corridor should be included in the Vernon General Plan.

CE(2A Notice of Preparation (NOP); draft Environmental Impact Report LD£IR�for the "Focused General Plan and Zoning Prdinance Update Project;' located in_the C ity of Varnoni Las Angeles County, California Dear Mr. Wilson: The Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) is the State of Califomia 'Trustee Agency' for the protection and pre servatian of Native American cultural resources pursuant to California Public Resources Carle §21070 and affirmed by the Third Appellat8 Court in the case of EPIC v. Johnson (1985: 170 Cal App. 3fd 604). Tins letter includes state and federal statutes (elating to Native American historic properties or resources of religious and cuitutal significance to American Indian tribes and interested Native American individuals as 'consulting parties' under both state and federal law_ State law also addresses the freedom of Native American Religious l=xp Fes sic n in Public Resources Code §5097.9. This project is also subject to California Government Code Section 65352.3 et seq. The California Environmental Quality Act (QEGA — CA Pubic Resources Code 21060-21177_ amendments effective 3/1812010) requires that any project that causes a substantial adverse charge in the significance of an historical resource_ that includes archaeo log icaJ resources, is a 'significant effect' requiring the preparation of an Environmental Impact Deport (FIR) per the CEQA Guidelines defines a significant impact on the environment as 'a substantial, or potentially substantial. adverse change in any of physical conditions within an area affected by the proposed project, including ...objects of historic or aesthetic sign ficance." In order to comply with this provision. the lend agency is required to assess whether the project will Crave an adverse irnpact on these resources within the "area of potential effect (APE), and if so. to mitrgate that effect. The NAHC recommends that the lead agency request that the NAHC do a Sacred Lands File search as part of the careful planning for the proposed project. The NAHC "Sacred Sites,' as defined by the Native American Heritage Commission and the California Legislature in California Public Resources Code §5097_94(a) and 5097.96 Items in the NAHC Sacred Lands Jnventory are confidential and exempt from the Public Records Act pursuant to Califorriia Government Code §6254 (r ). Early consultation with Native American tribes in your area is the best way to avoid unanticipated discoveries of cultural resources or burial sites once a project is underway. Culturally affiliated tubes and individuals may have knowledge of the religious and cultural significance of the historic properties in the project area (e,g. APB). We strongly urge th, t you make contact with the list of Native American Contacts on the attached fist of Native American contacts, to see if your proposed project might impact Native American cultural resources and to obtain their recommendations concerning the proposed project- Pursuant to CA Public Resources Code § 5097-95, the NAFIC requests cooperation from other public agencies in order that the Native American consulting parties be provided pertinent project information. Consultation with Native American communities is also a matter of environmental justice as defined by California Government Code §65040,1 (e). Pursuant to CA Public Resources Code §5097.9 . the NAHC. requests that pertinent project information be provided consulting tribal parties, including archaeological studies. The NAHC recommends avoidance as defined by CEQA Guidelines §15370(a) to pursuing a project that wvould damage of destroy Native American cultural resources and California Public Resources Code Section 2108 - (Archaeological Resources) that requires docurnentation, data recovery of cultural resources, construction to avoid sites and the possible use of covenant easements to protect sites. Furthermore the NAHC if the proposed project is under the jurisdiction of the statutes and regulations of the National Environmental policy Act (e-g. NEPA; 42 U.S-C. 4321-43351). onsaltation with tribes and interested Native American consulting parties, on the NAHC list, should be coriducted in compliance with the requirements of federal NEPA and Section 106 and 4(q of federal NHPA (16 U.S.C. 470 et seq), 36 C F R Part 800.3 (f) (2) & -5, the President's Council on Environmental Quality (C 4, 42 U. .0 4371 et seq. and NAGPRA ( 5 U.&C, 3001- 01 ) as appropriate- The 1992 ,Secretary of the Interiors Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties were revised so that they could be applied to alb historic resource types included in the NaticnaI Register of Historic Places and including cukturaI landscapes. Also, federal Executive Orders Nos. 11593 (preservation of cultural environment), 13175 (coordination & consultation) and 13007 (Sacred Sites) are helpful, supportive guides for Section 106 consultation. The aforementioned Secretary of the Interior's Sfandards include recommendations for all -lead agencies' to consider the historic context_ of proposed projects and to "research" the cultural landscape that might include the `area of potential effect. Confidentiality of "historic properties of religious and cultural significance" should also be considered as protected by California Government Code §6254( r) and may also be protected under Section 304 of he NHPA or at the Secretary of the Interier discretion if not eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. The Secretary may also be advised by the federal Indian Religious Ffeedom Act (cf. 42 US C.. 1996) in issuing a decision on whether or not to disclose items of religious and/or cultural significance identified in or near the APES and possitifity threatened by proposed project activity- Furthermore, Public Resources Code Section 5097-98, Califomia Government Code §27491 and Health & Safety Code Section 7050.5 provide for provisions for inadvertent discovery of human remains mandate the processes to be followed in the event of a discovery of human remains in a project location other than a 'dedicated cemetery' To be effective, consultation on specific projects must be the result of an ongoing relationship between Native American tribes and lead agencies, project proponents and their contractors, in the opinion of the NAHC. Regarding tribal consultation, a relationship built afound regular meetings and infwmal involvement +with local tribes will lead to more qualitative consultation tribal input on specific projects- Finally+, when Native American cultural sites artdfof Native American burial site$ are prevalent w ithin the project site, the INAH 0 recornmends 'avoidance' of the site as referenced by EQA Guidelines Section 15370(a).

Kevin Wilson City of Vernon 4305 Santa Fe Avenue Vernon, CA 90058 Dear Mr.Wilson: Re: SCH#2007061031 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update The California Public Utilities Commission(Commission)has jurisdiction over the safety of highway- rail crossings(crossings) in California. The California Public Utilities Code requires Commission approval for the construction or alteration of crossings and grants the Commission exclusive power on the design, alteration, and closure of crossings in California. The Commission Rail Crossings Engineering Section(RCES)is in receipt of the Notice of Preparation (NOP) from the State Clearinghouse for the proposed City of Vernon(City)Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update project. Previously on June 26 and October 5, 2007, RCES issued two (2) comment letters on the matter. RCES recommends that the City add language to the General Plan so that any future development adjacent to or near the shared railroad/light rail right-of-way is planned with the safety of the rail corridor in mind. New developments may increase traffic volumes not only on streets and at intersections,but also at at-grade highway-rail crossings. This includes considering pedestrian circulation patterns/destinations with respect to railroad right-of-way and compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Mitigation measures to consider include,but are not limited to,the planning for grade separations for major thoroughfares,improvements to existing at-grade highway-rail crossings due to increase in traffic volumes and continuous vandal resistant fencing or other appropriate barriers to limit the access of trespassers onto the railroad right-of-way. If you have any questions,please contact Ken Chiang at 213-576-7076, email at ykckcpuc.ca.gov.

Please forward a copy Df the [gait E IFS directly to SC AQ M D at the address in our letterhead, I addition, please send with the drag EIR all appendices or technical documents related to the air quality and greenhouse gas analyses and electronic versions of all air quality modeling and health risk assessment files. These include original emission calculation spreadsheets and modeling files nut Adobe PDF Liles). Without all files aail supporting air finality documenution, the SCAQMD will he unable to complete its review of the air quality analysis in a timely manner. A rty deIays is providing all supporting air quality d ocu mentattion will rea uire additional time for review beyond the end of the comment period, Air Quality Analysis The SCA M D adopted its Cal ifornia Environmental Quality Act(CF.QA) Air Quality Handbook in 1993 to assist other pEibiic agencies with the preparation ofair quality analyses. The SCAQMD recoin men ds that the lead Agency use tins Hand book as guidance when preparing its air quality analysis- Copics o1'the Handbook are available From the SCA MD"s Subscription Services Department by calling(909)396-3720. The lead agency may wish to consider using Sand use emissions estimating soflware much a�i the recently released CalEEMod. ` his model is aivaiIable on the A VID Webske at, hLtp,//www.ggrnd.LovicNa/iuodels.htirn]. The Lead Agency should identify any potential adverse air gLial ity impacts that could occur from a I I phases of the project and all air pollutant sources related to the project. Air quality impacts from both construction (including demolition, if any)and operations should be calculated. Construction-related air quality impacts typically include, but are riot limited to, emissions fron) the use of heavy-duty equipment front grading.earth-load inglun load ing, paving. architectural coatings, off road mobile sources(e.g., heavy-duty construction equipment) and on-road mobile sources (e.g., construction worker vehicle trips. material transport trips). Operation-related air quality impacts may incIWe, but are not limited to, emissions from stationary sources(e.g., boilers), area sources(e.g., solvents and coatings), and Vehicular trips(e.g., on- and off-road tailpipe omissions and entrained dust). Air quality impacts front indirect sources, that is, sources that generate or attract vehicular trips should he included in the analysis. The SCAMP has developed a methodology for calculatioa P ,5 emissions from construction and operational activities and processes. In connection with developing PM2.5 calculation methodologies; the SCA MD has also developed both regional and localized significance thresholds. The SCAQM requests chat the lead agency quantify PM?-5 emissions and compare the resultas to the recommended PM .5 significance thresholds. Guidance for calculating PM 2.5 emissions and P M2.5 significance thresholds can be found at the following internet address: http:l/w�%,w-argrod, oa vtcegaAiandbonk/PM2 51P 2_S.html, & Levin Wilsrrrt October 3. 21Il12 In addition to autalyzing regional air quality impacts the SCAQMD recommends calculating localized air quality impacts and comparing the resuits to localized significance thresholds(LS1-s).

Introduction and Summary A. Purpose of Report and Study Objectives The purpose of this report is to provide an assessment of the traffic impacts resulting from proposed residential and trucking overlay districts in the City of Vernon, and to identify the traffic mitigation measures necessary to maintain the established Level of Service standard for the elements of the impacted roadway system. The traffic issues related to the proposed land uses and development have been evaluated in the context of the California Environmental Quality Act. The City of Vernon is the lead agency responsible for preparation of the traffic impact analysis, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act authorizing legislation. This report analyzes traffic impacts for the Existing and Year 2035 traffic conditions. Although this is a technical report, every effort has been made to write the report clearly and concisely. To assist the reader with those terms unique to transportation engineering, a glossary of terms is provided in Appendix A. B. Study Area The study area intersections were determined by selecting the intersections that are projected to operate at unacceptable Levels of Service in the 2007 Circulation Plan Update for the City of Vernon (see Figure 1): Alameda Street (NS) at: Vernon Avenue (EW) -#1 55th Street(EW) -#2 Santa Fe Avenue (NS) at: 25th/26th Street (EW) -#3 38th Street (EW) -#4 Vernon Avenue (EW) -#5 Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard (EW) -#6 Soto Street(NS) at: 26th Street(EW) -#7 Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#8 Vernon Avenue (EW) -#9 Leonis Boulevard (EW) -#10 Fruitland Avenue (EW) -#11 Boyle Avenue (NS) at: Slauson Avenue (EW) -#12 Downey Road (NS) at: Washington Boulevard (EW)-#13 Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#14 Slauson Avenue (EW) -#15 Atlantic Boulevard (NS) at: Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#16 District Boulevard (EW) -#17 C. Definition of Deficiency and Significant Impact The City of Vernon has an established acceptable Level of Service of D. Level of Service E and F are unacceptable. Based on the Los Angeles Department of Transportation Policies and Procedures, an impact is considered significant if the project-related increase in the volume-to-capacity ratio equals or exceeds the thresholds shown below: Significant Impact Threshold for Intersections Level of Service Volume/Capacity Incremental Increase C 0.70-0.79 0.04 or more D 0.80-0.89 0.02 or more E/F 0.90- more 0.01 or more D. Principal Findings Existing Level of Service: For Existing traffic conditions, the study area intersections currently operate within acceptable Levels of Service during the peak hours, except for the following study area intersections that operate at Levels of Service E to F during the peak hours (see Table 1): Alameda Street (NS) at: Vernon Avenue (EW) -#1 55th Street(EW) -#2 Santa Fe Avenue (NS) at: 25th/26th Street (EW) -#3 38th Street(EW) -#4 Vernon Avenue (EW) -#5 Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard (EW) -#6 Soto Street(NS) at: 26th Street(EW) -#7 Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#8 Vernon Avenue (EW) -#9 2 Boyle Avenue (NS) at: Slauson Avenue (EW) -#12 Downey Road (NS) at: Washington Boulevard (EW)-#13 Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#14 Slauson Avenue (EW) -#15 Atlantic Boulevard (NS) at: Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#16 District Boulevard (EW) -#17 Current General Plan Year 2035 Level of Service: For the Current General Plan Year 2035 traffic conditions, the study area intersections are projected to operate at Level of Service E to F during the peak hours, without improvements (see Table 2). All potential developments within the proposed housing and trucking overlay districts have been individually accounted for by an appropriate trip generation and trip distribution. Proposed General Plan Year 203S Level of Service: For the Proposed General Plan Year 203S traffic conditions, the study area intersections are projected to operate at Level of Service E to F during the peak hours,without improvements (see Table 4). Table 5 depicts the Proposed General Plan Year 2035 traffic conditions at the study area intersections. The study area intersections are not significantly impacted by the proposed housing and trucking overlay districts. 3 Figure 1 Location Map 25th Street 26th Street .. 27th Street 28th L i Washington Boulevar I Street ° a d o � ate, L• 37th Street Nk Bandini T ¢ `• _ I ` Boulevard 41st 38th Street Street Vernon Avenue �c .V Vernon AvenueLL a, a, > (U c ¢ \ "' < 46thStreet Exchangegvenue m ma as \''\ o�eJatd > �a!l 48th Street aALeveonnuis C�6 4jd Boulevard uo i 49th Street 3 ov h °E! m Fruitlanda Cj " e� Mv .— — �o go/y 54th Street o a c 55 Street a o Q \ 10� ru �P i L_.._.._.._..� g o Q p .

Existing Traffic Conditions The traffic conditions as they exist today are discussed below and illustrated on Figures 2 to 8. A. Existing Travel Lanes and Intersection Controls Figures 2 and 3 identify the existing roadway conditions within the City of Vernon. The number of through travel lanes and intersection controls for existing roadways are illustrated on Figure 2 and the existing intersection geometries are identified on Figure 3. B. Existing Average Daily Traffic Volumes Figure 4 depict the existing average daily traffic volumes in the study area. Existing manual morning and evening peak hour intersection turning movement counts have been obtained by Kunzman Associates, Inc. in February and October 2012 (see Appendix B). The existing average daily traffic volumes have been obtained from peak hour counts using the following formula for each intersection leg: PM Peak Hour(Approach Volume+ Exit Volume) x 11.0= Leg Volume. C. Truck Passenger Car Equivalents To account for the number of trucks that are included in the traffic counts, a truck factor has been developed. Four vehicle classification spot counts have been conducted to calculate the percentage of the vehicle mix that are trucks. The truck percentage calculation shows that there are currently 22 percent trucks on the City of Vernon Streets (see Appendix C). Per the City of Vernon, a Passenger Car Equivalent of 2.5 has been used on the 22 percent trucks (see Appendix Q. A truck factor of 1.33 has been applied to account for the calculated 22 percent trucks on the study area roadways ((1.00 — 0.22) + (0.22 X 2.5) = 1.33). D. Existing Intersection Capacity Utilization and Level of Service The technique used to assess the capacity needs of an intersection is known as Intersection Capacity Utilization (see Appendix D). To calculate Intersection Capacity Utilization, the volume of traffic using the intersection is compared with the capacity of the intersection. The existing Intersection Capacity Utilization and Level of Service for the study area intersections are shown in Table 1. Existing Intersection Capacity Utilization is based upon manual morning and evening peak hour intersection turning movement counts obtained by Kunzman Associates, Inc. in February and October 2012. The factored traffic counts are presented on Figures 5 and 6. There are two peak hours in a weekday. The morning peak hour is between 7:00 AM and 9:00 AM, and the evening peak hour is between 4:00 PM and 6:00 PM. The actual peak hour within the two hour interval is the four consecutive 15 minute periods with the highest 5 total volume when all movements are added together. Thus, the evening peak hour at one intersection may be 4:45 PM to 5:45 PM if those four consecutive 15 minute periods have the highest combined volume. For Existing traffic conditions, the study area intersections currently operate within acceptable Levels of Service during the peak hours, except for the following study area intersections that operate at Levels of Service E to F during the peak hours (see Table 1): Alameda Street (NS) at: Vernon Avenue (EW) -#1 55th Street (EW) -#2 Santa Fe Avenue (NS) at: 25th/26th Street (EW) -#3 38th Street(EW) -#4 Vernon Avenue (EW) -#5 Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard (EW) -#6 Soto Street (NS) at: 26th Street (EW) -#7 Bandini Boulevard (EW)-#8 Vernon Avenue (EW) -#9 Boyle Avenue (NS) at: Slauson Avenue (EW) -#12 Downey Road (NS) at: Washington Boulevard (EW) -#13 Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#14 Slauson Avenue (EW) -#15 Atlantic Boulevard (NS) at: Bandini Boulevard (EW)-#16 District Boulevard (EW) -#17 Existing delay worksheets are provided in Appendix D.

Current General Plan Year 2035 Traffic Conditions In this section, Current General Plan Year 2035 traffic conditions are discussed. Figures 9 and 11 illustrate the Current General Plan Year 2035 traffic conditions. A. Method of Projection Based upon the 2007 City of Vernon General Plan Updated, an ambient annual growth rate of 0.5 percent is used in this analysis. This produces a growth factor of 1.12 for Year 2035 conditions. B. Current General Plan Year 2035 Average Daily Traffic Volumes Current General Plan Year 2035 average daily traffic volumes are depicted on Figure 9. C. Current General Plan Year 2035 Intersection Capacity Utilization and Level of Service The technique used to assess the capacity needs of an intersection is known as Intersection Capacity Utilization (see Appendix D). To calculate Intersection Capacity Utilization, the volume of traffic using the intersection is compared with the capacity of the intersection.

OVER 35 YEARS of EXCELLENT SERVICE 19 IV. Proposed General Plan Year 2035 Traffic Conditions In this section, Proposed General Plan Year 2035 traffic conditions are discussed. Figures 12 and 31 illustrate the Current General Plan Year 2035 traffic conditions. A. Method of Projection Based upon the 2007 City of Vernon General Plan Update, an ambient annual growth rate of 0.5 percent is used in this analysis. This produces a growth factor of 1.12 for Year 2035 conditions. The potential development trip generation and trip distribution are then applied to analyze the Proposed General Plan. B. Potential Development 1. Potential Development Locations The City of Vernon has provided the potential locations for residential developments, industrial developments, and an emergency shelter within the residential and trucking overlay districts. Figure 12 provides the location of each potential development site. 2. Trip Generation The trips generated by the potential development is determined by multiplying an appropriate trip generation rate by the quantity of land use. Trip generation rates are predicated on the assumption that energy costs, the availability of roadway capacity, the availability of vehicles to drive, and our life styles remain similar to what we know today. A major change in these variables may affect trip generation rates. Trip generation rates were determined for daily traffic and morning peak hour inbound and outbound traffic, and evening peak hour inbound and outbound traffic for the proposed land uses. By multiplying the trip generation rates by the land use quantities, the traffic volumes are determined. The difference in vehicle trips between the previously proposed land uses and the proposed land uses are used as the trip generation for each potential development site. Table 3 shows the trip generation based upon rates obtained from the Institute of Transportation Engineers,Trip Generation, 9th Edition, 2012. 3. Trip Distribution To determine the trip distribution for the potential developments, peak hour traffic counts of the existing directional distribution of traffic for existing areas in the vicinity of the site, and other additional information on future development 20 and traffic impacts in the area were reviewed. The trip distributions for the potential developments are provided on Figures 13 to 25. 4. Trip Assignment Based on the identified trip generation and distributions, potential development average daily traffic volumes have been calculated and shown on Figure 26. Morning and evening peak hour intersection turning movement volumes expected from the potential developments are shown on Figures 27 and 28, respectively. C. Proposed General Plan Year 2035 Average Daily Traffic Volumes Proposed General Plan Year 2035 average daily traffic volumes are depicted on Figure 29. D. Proposed General Plan Year 2035 Intersection Capacity Utilization and Level of Service The technique used to assess the capacity needs of an intersection is known as Intersection Capacity Utilization (see Appendix D). To calculate Intersection Capacity Utilization, the volume of traffic using the intersection is compared with the capacity of the intersection. The Proposed General Plan Year 2035 morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes are provided in Figures 30 and 31, respectively. For the Proposed General Plan Year 2035 traffic conditions, the study area intersections are projected to operate at Level of Service E to F during the peak hours, without improvements (see Table 4). Proposed General Plan Year 2035 Intersection Capacity Utilization worksheets are provided in Appendix D. E.

Conclusions The purpose of this report is to provide an assessment of the traffic impacts resulting from proposed residential and trucking overlay districts in the City of Vernon, and to identify the traffic mitigation measures necessary to maintain the established Level of Service standard for the elements of the impacted roadway system. The study area intersections were determined by selecting the intersections that were projected to operate at unacceptable Levels of Service in the 2007 Circulation Plan Update for the City of Vernon. Alameda Street (NS) at: Vernon Avenue (EW) -#1 55th Street (EW) -#2 Santa Fe Avenue (NS) at: 25th/26th Street (EW) -#3 38th Street(EW) -#4 Vernon Avenue (EW) -#5 Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard (EW) -#6 Soto Street(NS) at: 26th Street(EW) -#7 Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#8 Vernon Avenue (EW) -#9 Leonis Boulevard (EW) -#10 Fruitland Avenue (EW) -#11 Boyle Avenue (NS) at: Slauson Avenue (EW) -#12 Downey Road (NS) at: Washington Boulevard (EW) -#13 Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#14 Slauson Avenue (EW) -#15 Atlantic Boulevard (NS) at: Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#16 District Boulevard (EW) -#17 Existing Level of Service: For Existing traffic conditions, the study area intersections currently operate within acceptable Levels of Service during the peak hours, except for the following study area intersections that operate at Levels of Service E to F during the peak hours (see Table 1): 45 Alameda Street (NS) at: Vernon Avenue (EW) -#1 55th Street(EW) -#2 Santa Fe Avenue (NS) at: 25th/26th Street (EW) -#3 38th Street (EW) -#4 Vernon Avenue (EW)-#5 Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard (EW) -#6 Soto Street (NS) at: 26th Street(EW) -#7 Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#8 Vernon Avenue (EW)-#9 Boyle Avenue (NS) at: Slauson Avenue (EW) -#12 Downey Road (NS) at: Washington Boulevard (EW)-#13 Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#14 Slauson Avenue (EW) -#15 Atlantic Boulevard (NS) at: Bandini Boulevard (EW) -#16 District Boulevard (EW) -#17 Current General Plan Year 2035 Level of Service: For the Current General Plan Year 2035 traffic conditions, the study area intersections are projected to operate at Level of Service E to F during the peak hours, without improvements (see Table 2). All potential developments within the proposed housing and trucking overlay districts have been individually accounted for by an appropriate trip generation and trip distribution. Proposed General Plan Year 2035 Level of Service: For the Proposed General Plan Year 2035 traffic conditions, the study area intersections are projected to operate at Level of Service E to F during the peak hours,without improvements (see Table 4). Table 5 depicts the Proposed General Plan Year 2035 traffic conditions at the study area intersections. The study area intersections are not significantly impacted by the proposed housing and trucking overlay districts. The 1-710 widening project is projected to add an additional two northbound and two southbound travel lanes. These travel lanes proposed to be dedicated to trucks. The additional lane modifications are not projected to alter the traffic patterns within the City of Vernon. There is also a potential for additional interchanges and modification the existing interchanges along the I- 710 Freeway. These potential improvements will potentially significantly improve the function of Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard. 46 The Orange Rail Line might align through the City of Vernon and provide access to the City of Vernon. At this point there is no preferred alignment and no proposed stations. Traffic patterns within the City of Vernon are not anticipated to significantly change if and when this Orange Rail Line is completed. It should be noted that the City of Vernon is virtually built out and that physical lane addition as a means of traffic mitigation provides limited opportunities. It is recommended that the City of Vernon implement an Intelligent Transportation System. The City of Los Angeles has implemented a number of Los Angeles County Automated Traffic Surveillance and Control systems and these systems provide an approximate 10 percent increase in capacity. 47 Appendices Appendix A—Glossary of Transportation Terms Appendix B—Traffic Count Worksheets Appendix C—Truck Percentage Calculations Appendix D—Explanation and Calculation of Intersection Capacity Utilization APPENDIX A Glossary of Transportation Terms GLOSSARY OF TRANSPORTATION TERMS COMMON ABBREVIATIONS AC: Acres ADT: Average Daily Traffic Caltrans: California Department of Transportation DU: Dwelling Unit ICU: Intersection Capacity Utilization LOS: Level of Service TSF: Thousand Square Feet V/C: Volume/Capacity VMT: Vehicle Miles Traveled TERMS AVERAGE DAILY TRAFFIC: The total volume during a year divided by the number of days in a year. Usually only weekdays are included. BANDWIDTH: The number of seconds of green time available for through traffic in a signal progression. BOTTLENECK: A constriction along a travelway that limits the amount of traffic that can proceed downstream from its location. CAPACITY: The maximum number of vehicles that can be reasonably expected to pass over a given section of a lane or a roadway in a given time period. CHANNELIZATION: The separation or regulation of conflicting traffic movements into definite paths of travel by the use of pavement markings, raised islands, or other suitable means to facilitate the safe and orderly movements of both vehicles and pedestrians. CLEARANCE INTERVAL: Nearly same as yellow time. If there is an all red interval after the end of a yellow,then that is also added into the clearance interval. CORDON: An imaginary line around an area across which vehicles, persons, or other items are counted (in and out). CYCLE LENGTH: The time period in seconds required for one complete signal cycle. CUL-DE-SAC STREET: A local street open at one end only, and with special provisions for turning around. DAILY CAPACITY: The daily volume of traffic that will result in a volume during the peak hour equal to the capacity of the roadway. DELAY: The time consumed while traffic is impeded in its movement by some element over which it has no control, usually expressed in seconds per vehicle. DEMAND RESPONSIVE SIGNAL: Same as traffic-actuated signal. DENSITY: The number of vehicles occupying in a unit length of the through traffic lanes of a roadway at any given instant. Usually expressed in vehicles per mile. DETECTOR: A device that responds to a physical stimulus and transmits a resulting impulse to the signal controller. DESIGN SPEED: A speed selected for purposes of design. Features of a highway, such as curvature, superelevation, and sight distance (upon which the safe operation of vehicles is dependent) are correlated to design speed. DIRECTIONAL SPLIT: The percent of traffic in the peak direction at any point in time. DIVERSION: The rerouting of peak hour traffic to avoid congestion. FORCED FLOW: Opposite of free flow. FREE FLOW: Volumes are well below capacity. Vehicles can maneuver freely and travel is unimpeded by other traffic. GAP: Time or distance between successive vehicles in a traffic stream, rear bumper to front bumper. HEADWAY: Time or distance spacing between successive vehicles in a traffic stream, front bumper to front bumper. INTERCONNECTED SIGNAL SYSTEM: A number of intersections that are connected to achieve signal progression. LEVEL OF SERVICE: A qualitative measure of a number of factors, which include speed and travel time, traffic interruptions, freedom to maneuver, safety, driving comfort and convenience, and operating costs. LOOP DETECTOR: A vehicle detector consisting of a loop of wire embedded in the roadway, energized by alternating current and producing an output circuit closure when passed over by a vehicle. MINIMUM ACCEPTABLE GAP: Smallest time headway between successive vehicles in a traffic stream into which another vehicle is willing and able to cross or merge. MULTI-MODAL: More than one mode; such as automobile, bus transit, rail rapid transit, and bicycle transportation modes. OFFSET: The time interval in seconds between the beginning of green at one intersection and the beginning of green at an adjacent intersection. PLATOON: A closely grouped component of traffic that is composed of several vehicles moving, or standing ready to move, with clear spaces ahead and behind. ORIGIN-DESTINATION SURVEY: A survey to determine the point of origin and the point of destination for a given vehicle trip. PASSENGER CAR EQUIVALENTS: One car is one Passenger Car Equivalent. A truck is equal to 2 or 3 Passenger Car Equivalents in that a truck requires longer to start, goes slower, and accelerates slower. Loaded trucks have a higher Passenger Car Equivalent than empty trucks. PEAK HOUR: The 60 consecutive minutes with the highest number of vehicles. PRETIMED SIGNAL: A type of traffic signal that directs traffic to stop and go on a predetermined time schedule without regard to traffic conditions. Also, fixed time signal. PROGRESSION: A term used to describe the progressive movement of traffic through several signalized intersections. SCREEN-LINE: An imaginary line or physical feature across which all trips are counted, normally to verify the validity of mathematical traffic models. SIGNAL CYCLE: The time period in seconds required for one complete sequence of signal indications. SIGNAL PHASE: The part of the signal cycle allocated to one or more traffic movements. STARTING DELAY: The delay experienced in initiating the movement of queued traffic from a stop to an average running speed through a signalized intersection. TRAFFIC-ACTUATED SIGNAL: A type of traffic signal that directs traffic to stop and go in accordance with the demands of traffic, as registered by the actuation of detectors. TRIP: The movement of a person or vehicle from one location (origin) to another (destination). For example,from home to store to home is two trips, not one. TRIP-END: One end of a trip at either the origin or destination; i.e. each trip has two trip-ends. A trip-end occurs when a person, object, or message is transferred to or from a vehicle. TRIP GENERATION RATE: The quality of trips produced and/or attracted by a specific land use stated in terms of units such as per dwelling, per acre, and per 1,000 square feet of floor space. TRUCK: A vehicle having dual tires on one or more axles, or having more than two axles. UNBALANCED FLOW: Heavier traffic flow in one direction than the other. On a daily basis, most facilities have balanced flow. During the peak hours, flow is seldom balanced in an urban area.

APPENDIX D Explanation and Calculation of Intersection Capacity Utilization EXPLANATION AND CALCULATION OF INTERSECTION CAPACITY UTILIZATION Overview The ability of a roadway to carry traffic is referred to as capacity. The capacity is usually greater between intersections and less at intersections because traffic flows continuously between them and only during the green phase at them. Capacity at intersections is best defined in terms of vehicles per lane per hour of green. If capacity is 1600 vehicles per lane per hour of green, and if the green phase is 50 percent of the cycle and there are three lanes, then the capacity is 1600 times 50 percent times 3 lanes, or 2400 vehicles per hour for that approach. The technique used to compare the volume and capacity at an intersection is known as Intersection Capacity Utilization. Intersection Capacity Utilization, usually expressed as a percent, is the proportion of an hour required to provide sufficient capacity to accommodate all intersection traffic if all approaches operate at capacity. If an intersection is operating at 80 percent of capacity (i.e., an Intersection Capacity Utilization of 80 percent), then 20 percent of the signal cycle is not used. The signal could show red on all indications 20 percent of the time and the signal would just accommodate approaching traffic. Intersection Capacity Utilization analysis consists of (a) determining the proportion of signal time needed to serve each conflicting movement of traffic, (b) summing the times for the movements, and (c) comparing the total time required to the total time available. For example, if for north-south traffic the northbound traffic is 1600 vehicles per hour, the southbound traffic is 1200 vehicles per hour, and the capacity of either direction is 3200 vehicles per hour, then the northbound traffic is critical and requires 1600/3200 or 50 percent of the signal time. If for east-west traffic, 30 percent of the signal time is required, then it can be seen that the Intersection Capacity Utilization is 50 plus 30, or 80 percent. When left turn arrows (left turn phasing) exist, they are incorporated into the analysis. The critical movements are usually the heavy left turn movements and the opposing through movements. The Intersection Capacity Utilization technique is an ideal tool to quantify existing as well as future intersection operation. The impact of adding a lane can be quickly determined by examining the effect the lane has on the Intersection Capacity Utilization. Intersection Capacity Utilization Worksheets That Follow This Discussion The Intersection Capacity Utilization worksheet table contains the following information: 1. Peak hour turning movement volumes. 2. Number of lanes that serve each movement. 3. For right turn lanes, whether the lane is a free right turn lane, whether it has a right turn arrow, and the percent of right turns on red that are assumed. 4. Capacity assumed per lane. 5. Capacity available to serve each movement (number of lanes times capacity per lane). 6. Volume to capacity ratio for each movement. 7. Whether the movement's volume to capacity ratio is critical and adds to the Intersection Capacity Utilization value. 8. The yellow time or clearance interval assumed. 9. Adjustments for right turn movements. 10. The Intersection Capacity Utilization and Level of Service. The Intersection Capacity Utilization Worksheet also has two graphics on the same page. These two graphics show the following: 1. Peak hour turning movement volumes. 2. Number of lanes that serve each movement. 3. The approach and exit leg volumes. 4. The two-way leg volumes. 5. An estimate of daily traffic volumes that is fairly close to actual counts and is based strictly on the peak hour leg volumes multiplied by a factor. 6. Percent of daily traffic in peak hours. 7. Percent of peak hour leg volume that is inbound versus outbound. A more detailed discussion of Intersection Capacity Utilization and Level of Service follows. Level of Service Level of Service is used to describe the quality of traffic flow. Levels of Service A to C operate quite well. Level of Service C is typically the standard to which rural roadways are designed. Level of Service D is characterized by fairly restricted traffic flow. Level of Service D is the standard to which urban roadways are typically designed. Level of Service E is the maximum volume a facility can accommodate and will result in possible stoppages of momentary duration. Level of Service F occurs when a facility is overloaded and is characterized by stop-and-go traffic with stoppages of long duration. A description of the various Levels of Service appears at the end of the Intersection Capacity Utilization description, along with the relationship between Intersection Capacity Utilization and Level of Service. Signalized and Unsignalized Intersections Although calculating an Intersection Capacity Utilization value for an unsignalized intersection is invalid, the presumption is that a signal can be installed and the calculation shows whether the geometrics are capable of accommodating the expected volumes with a signal. A traffic signal becomes warranted before Level of Service D is reached for a signalized intersection. Signal Timing The Intersection Capacity Utilization calculation assumes that a signal is properly timed. It is possible to have an Intersection Capacity Utilization well below 100 percent, yet have severe traffic congestion. This would occur if one or more movements is not getting sufficient green time to satisfy its demand, and excess green time exists on other movements. This is an operational problem that should be remedied. Lane Capacity Capacity is often defined in terms of roadway width; however, standard lanes have approximately the same capacity whether they are 11 or 14 feet wide. Our data indicates a typical lane, whether a through lane or a left turn lane, has a capacity of approximately 1750 vehicles per hour of green time, with nearly all locations showing a capacity greater than 1600 vehicles per hour of green per lane. Right turn lanes have a slightly lower capacity; however 1600 vehicles per hour is a valid capacity assumption for right turn lanes. This finding is published in the August, 1978 issue of ITE Journal in the article entitled, "Another Look at Signalized Intersection Capacity" by William Kunzman. A capacity of 1600 vehicles per hour per lane with no yellow time penalty, or 1700 vehicles per hour with a 3 or 5 percent yellow time penalty is reasonable. Yellow Time The yellow time can either be assumed to be completely used and no penalty applied, or it can be assumed to be only partially usable. Total yellow time accounts for approximately 10 percent of a signal cycle, and a penalty of 3 to 5 percent is reasonable. During peak hour traffic operation the yellow times are nearly completely used. If there is no left turn phasing, the left turn vehicles completely use the yellow time. Even if there is left turn phasing, the through traffic continues to enter the intersection on the yellow until just a split second before the red. Shared Lanes Shared lanes occur in many locations. A shared lane is often found at the end of an off ramp where the ramp forms an intersection with the cross street. Often at a diamond interchange off ramp,there are three lanes. In the case of a diamond interchange, the middle lane is sometimes shared, and the driver can turn left, go through, or turn right from that lane. If one assumes a three lane off ramp as described above, and if one assumes that each lane has 1600 capacity, and if one assumes that there are 1000 left turns per hour, 500 right turns per hour, and 100 through vehicles per hour, then how should one assume that the three lanes operate. There are three ways that it is done. One way is to just assume that all 1600 vehicles (1000 plus 500 plus 100) are served simultaneously by three lanes. When this is done, the capacity is 3 times 1600 or 4800, and the amount of green time needed to serve the ramp is 1600 vehicles divided by 4800 capacity or 33.3 percent. This assumption effectively assumes perfect lane distribution between the three lanes that is not realistic. It also means a left turn can be made from the right lane. Another way is to equally split the capacity of a shared lane and in this case to assume there are 1.33 left turn lanes, 1.33 right turn lanes, and 0.33 through lanes. With this assumption, the critical movement is the left turns and the 1000 left turns are served by a capacity of 1.33 times 1600, or 2133. The volume to capacity ratio of the critical move is 1000 divided by 2133 or 46.9 percent. The first method results in a critical move of 33.3 percent and the second method results in a critical move of 46.9 percent. Neither is very accurate, and the difference in the calculated Level of Service will be approximately 1.5 Levels of Service (one Level of Service is 10 percent). The way Kunzman Associates does it is to assign fractional lanes in a reasonable way. In this example, it would be assumed that there is 1.1 right turn lanes, 0.2 through lanes, and 1.7 left turn lanes. The volume to capacity ratios for each movement would be 31.3 percent for the through traffic, 28.4 percent for the right turn movement, and 36.8 percent for the left turn movement. The critical movement would be the 36.8 percent for the left turns. Right Turn on Red Kunzman Associates' software treats right turn lanes in one of five different ways. Each right turn lane is classified into one of five cases. The five cases are (1) free right turn lane, (2) right turn lane with separate right turn arrow, (3) standard right turn lane with no right turns on red allowed, (4) standard right turn lane with a certain percentage of right turns on red allowed, and (5) separate right turn arrow and a certain percentage of right turns on red allowed. Free Right Turn Lane If it is a free right turn lane, then it is given a capacity of one full lane with continuous or 100 percent green time. A Free right turn lane occurs when there is a separate approach lane for right turning vehicles, there is a separate departure lane for the right turning vehicles after they turn and are exiting the intersection, and the through cross street traffic does not interfere with the vehicles after they turn right. Separate Right Turn Arrow If there is a separate right turn arrow, then it is assumed that vehicles are given a green indication and can proceed on what is known as the left turn overlap. The left turn overlap for a northbound right turn is the westbound left turn. When the left turn overlap has a green indication, the right turn lane is also given a green arrow indication. Thus, if there is a northbound right turn arrow, then it can be turned green for the period of time that the westbound left turns are proceeding. If there are more right turns than can be accommodated during the northbound through green and the time that the northbound right turn arrow is on, then an adjustment is made to the Intersection Capacity Utilization to account for the green time that needs to be added to the northbound through green to accommodate the northbound right turns. Standard Right Turn Lane, No Right Turns on Red A standard right turn lane, with no right turn on red assumed, proceeds only when there is a green indication displayed for the adjacent through movement. If additional green time is needed above that amount of time, then in the Intersection Capacity Utilization calculation a right turn adjustment green time is added above the green time that is needed to serve the adjacent through movement. Standard Right Turn Lane,With Right Turns on Red A standard right turn lane with say 20 percent of the right turns allowed to turn right on a red indication is calculated the same as the standard right turn case where there is no right turn on red allowed, except that the right turn adjustment is reduced to account for the 20 percent of the right turning vehicles that can logically turn right on a red light. The right turns on red are never allowed to exceed the time the overlap left turns take plus the unused part of the green cycle that the cross street traffic moving from left to right has. As an example of how 20 percent of the cars are allowed to turn right on a red indication, assume that the northbound right turn volume needs 40 percent of the signal cycle to be satisfied. To allow 20 percent of the northbound right turns to turn right on red, then during 8 percent of the signal cycle (40 percent of signal cycle times 20 percent that can turn right on red) right turns on red will be allowed if it is feasible. For this example, assume that 15 percent of the signal cycle is green for the northbound through traffic, and that means that 15 percent of the signal cycle is available to satisfy northbound right turns. After the northbound through traffic has received its green, 25 percent of the signal cycle is still needed to satisfy the northbound right turns (40 percent of the signal cycle minus the 15 percent of the signal cycle that the northbound through used). Assume that the westbound left turns require a green time of 6 percent of the signal cycle. This 6 percent of the signal cycle is used by northbound right turns on red. After accounting for the northbound right turns that occur on the westbound overlap left turn, 19 percent of the signal cycle is still needed for the northbound right turns (25 percent of the cycle was needed after the northbound through green time was accounted for [see above paragraph], and 6 percent was served during the westbound left turn overlap). Also, at this point 6 percent of the signal cycle has been used for northbound right turns on red, and still 2 percent more of the right turns will be allowed to occur on the red if there is unused eastbound through green time. For purpose of this example, assume that the westbound through green is critical, and that 15 percent of the signal cycle is unused by eastbound through traffic. Thus, 2 percent more of the signal cycle can be used by the northbound right turns on red since there is 15 seconds of unused green time being given to the eastbound through traffic. At this point, 8 percent of the signal cycle was available to serve northbound right turning vehicles on red, and 15 percent of the signal cycle was available to serve right turning vehicles on the northbound through green. So 23 percent of the signal cycle has been available for northbound right turns. Because 40 percent of the signal cycle is needed to serve northbound right turns, there is still a need for 17 percent more of the signal cycle to be available for northbound right turns. What this means is the northbound through traffic green time is increased by 17 percent of the cycle length to serve the unserved right turn volume, and a 17 percent adjustment is added to the Intersection Capacity Utilization to account for the northbound right turns that were not served on the northbound through green time or when right turns on red were assumed. Separate Right Turn Arrow,With Right Turns on Red A right turn lane with a separate right turn arrow, plus a certain percentage of right turns allowed on red is calculated the same way as a standard right turn lane with a certain percentage of right turns allowed on red, except the turns which occur on the right turn arrow are not counted as part of the percentage of right turns that occur on red. Critical Lane Method Intersection Capacity Utilization parallels another calculation procedure known as the Critical Lane Method with one exception. Critical Lane Method dimensions capacity in terms of standardized vehicles per hour per lane. A Critical Lane Method result of 800 vehicles per hour means that the intersection operates as though 800 vehicles were using a single lane continuously. If one assumes a lane capacity of 1600 vehicles per hour, then a Critical Lane Method calculation resulting in 800 vehicles per hour is the same as an Intersection Capacity Utilization calculation of 50 percent since 800/1600 is 50 percent. It is our opinion that the Critical Lane Method is inferior to the Intersection Capacity Utilization method simply because a statement such as "The Critical Lane Method value is 800 vehicles per hour" means little to most persons, whereas a statement such as "The Intersection Capacity Utilization is 50 percent" communicates clearly. Critical Lane Method results directly correspond to Intersection Capacity Utilization results. The correspondence is as follows, assuming a lane capacity of 1600 vehicles per hour and no clearance interval. Critical Lane Method Result Intersection Capacity Utilization Result 800 vehicles per hour 50 percent 960 vehicles per hour 60 percent 1120 vehicles per hour 70 percent 1280 vehicles per hour 80 percent 1440 vehicles per hour 90 percent 1600 vehicles per hour 100 percent 1760 vehicles per hour 110 percent INTERSECTION CAPACITY UTILIZATION LEVEL OF SERVICE DESCRIPTION1 Level of Volume to Service Description Capacity Ratio A Level of Service A occurs when progression is extremely 0.600 and below favorable and vehicles arrive during the green phase. Most vehicles do not stop at all. Short cycle lengths may also contribute to low delay. B Level of Service B generally occurs with good progression 0.601 to 0.700 and/or short cycle lengths. More vehicles stop than for Level of Service A,causing higher levels of average delay. C Level of Service C generally results when there is fair 0.701 to 0.800 progression and/or longer cycle lengths. Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level. The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level, although many still pass through the intersection without stopping. D Level of Service D generally results in noticeable congestion. 0.801 to 0.900 Longer delays may result from some combination of unfavorable progression, long cycle lengths, or high volume to capacity ratios. Many vehicles stop, and the proportion of vehicles not stopping declines. Individual cycle failures are noticeable. E Level of Service E is considered to be the limit of acceptable 0.901 to 1.000 delay. These high delay values generally indicate poor progression, long cycle lengths, and high volume to capacity ratios. Individual cycle failures are frequent. F Level of Service F is considered to be unacceptable to most 1.001 and up drivers. This condition often occurs when oversaturation, i.e., when arrival flow rates exceed the capacity of the intersection. It may also occur at high volume to capacity ratios below 1.00 with many individual cycle failures. Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels. 1 Source: Highway Capacity Manual Special Report 209,Transportation Research Board, National Research Council Washington D.C.,2000.

As noted in Section 15089(b) of the Guidelines, the focus of a FEIR should be on responses to comments on the Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (Draft SEIR). Accordingly, this document incorporates the City of Vernon Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Draft SEIR, Volumes I through II (State Clearinghouse No. 2007061031) by reference, in its entirety. The Draft SEIR is available for review at the City of Vernon, 4305 South Santa Fe Avenue, Vernon, California 90058 and on the City's web site (www.cityofvernon.org). The contents of this FEIR include: Section 1: Introduction Section 2: Responses to Comments The City published a Notice of Availability and circulated the Draft SEIR for public review and comment for a 45-day review period from December 4, 2014 through January 20, 2015. A total of three different pieces of correspondences were submitted to the City during the review period. This section includes a list of all correspondence submitted to the City of Vernon, each identified by a letter for later reference, together with the authors and the dates the letters were issued. Following this list, all of the letters are presented, with numbered brackets to highlight specific comments that are responded to in the next section. Review of Environmental Documents Section 15204 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines provides guidance to the public and public agencies in reviewing CEQA documents. This section is designed not to limit the scope of comments that can be submitted but to focus comments on issues that are substantive to the environmental analysis. Commenting entities should focus on the adequacy of the document in identifying and analyzing impacts to the environment, and should identify any areas they believe to be inadequate. The guidance indicates that comments should be submitted in a manner that: • Identifies a specific environmental effect ■ Supports the effect and its significance with substantial evidence Comments should include alternatives or mitigation measures to avoid or reduce identified, specific environmental effects. This section reiterates that the lead agency is bound by "reasonableness" and "good faith" in its analysis and that the lead agency is not required to respond to comments on the FEIR that do not identify significant environmental issues. Each response provided in this Final EIR is coded to correspond to the individual comment/author and each of the bracketed comments in that letter. A summary table is included with each response to identify if the response introduces "new Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 1 1 Introduction significant information" under any of the four categories identified in Section 15088 et seq. of the CEQA Guidelines. Evaluation of Comments Section 15088 et seq. of the State CEQA Guidelines provides guidance on the evaluation and response to comments received during circulation of the Draft SEIR. To summarize: • The lead agency must evaluate all comments received during the public review period and prepare a written response to comments on significant environmental issues. • The lead agency must provide the response to the commenting entity at least 10 days prior to certification of the EIR. • The response must: o Identify any significant environmental issues raised in the comment; o Explain, if necessary, why any recommendations provided in the comment were not accepted; and o Be supported by reasoned analysis. ■ Responses may be provided as direct revisions to the DEIR or as a separate section of the FEIR with marginal notes in the DEIR text indicated that it was subsequently revised. A lead agency is required to recirculate the DEIR if "significant new information" is introduced during the public comment period. "Significant new information" includes: 1. New significant impacts 2. Substantial increases in the severity of impacts 3. Feasible alternatives or mitigation that would reduce significant impacts 4. Identification of inadequacies in the analysis Recirculation is not required when new information is not significant; this includes: ■ Revisions that clarify or amplify an adequate analysis ■ Insignificant modifications (such as spelling and grammar corrections) Section 3: Errata This section identifies revisions to the Draft SEIR to incorporate clarifications developed in response to comments on the Draft SEIR. Additions to the text are underlined and deletions have been stricken through. No substantial revisions were made to the Draft SEIR, and recirculation of the document is not required pursuant to CEQA. Section 4: Notices and Distribution This consists of notices concerning the release of the Draft SEIR for public review and comment, and the list of agencies, groups and individuals who were sent notices and/or a copy of the Draft SEIR. 2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Responses to Comments 2 2 Responses to Comments The Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (Draft SEIR) was circulated for a 45-day public review and comment period beginning December 4, 2014 and ending January 20, 2015. Correspondence was received from agencies and the public during this time period. The correspondence listed in Table 1 (Draft SEIR Comments) was submitted to the City of Vernon concerning the Draft SEIR. Written responses to comments are subsequently provided. The following responses to comments include a summary statement to identify if the response will introduce "new significant information" under any of the four categories identified in Section 15088 et seq. of the CEQA Guidelines or if it does not introduce "new significant information." The four general categories are: 1. New significant impacts 2. Substantial increases in the severity of impacts 3. Feasible alternatives or mitigation that would reduce significant impacts 4.

The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) states that any project that causes a substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource,which includes archeological resources,is a significant effect requiring the preparation of an EIR(CEQA Guidelines 150641b))r To comply with this provision the lead agency is required to assess whether the project will have an adverse impact on historical resources within the area of project effect(APE),and if so to mitigate that effect. To adequately assess and mitigate project-related impacts to archaeological resources, the NAHC recommends the following actions: ✓ Contact the appropriate regional archaeological Information Center for a record search- The record search will determine: If a part or all of the area of project effect(APE)has been previously surveyed for cultural resources. • If any known cultural resources have already been recorded on or adjacent to the APE. • If the probability is low,moderate,or high that cultural resources are located in the APE. • If a survey is required to determine whether previously unrecorded cultural resources are present. ✓ If an archaeological inventory survey is required,the final stage is the preparation of a professional report detailing the findings and recommendations of the records search and field survey. • The final report containing site forms,site significance,and mitigation measurers should be submitted immediately A_1 to the planning department. All information regarding site locations. Native American human remains, and associated funerary objects should be in a separate confidential addendum,and not be made available for pubic disclosure. • The final written report should be submitted within 3 months after work has been completed to the appropriate regional archaeological Information Center. ✓ Contact the Native American Heritage Commission for: • A Sacred Lands File Check. USGS 7.5-minute quadrangle name,township,range,and section required • A list of appropriate Native American contacts for consultation concerning the project site and to assist in the mitigation measures. Native American Contacts List attached ✓ Lack of surface evidence of archeological resources does not preclude their subsurface existence. • Lead agencies should include in their mitigation plan provisions for the identification and evaluation of accidentally discovered archeological resources,per California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA)Guidelines§15064.5(f). In areas of identified archaeological sensitivity,a certified archaeologist and a culturally affiliated Native American, with knowledge in cultural resources,should monitor all ground-disturbing activities. • Lead agencies should include in their mitigation plan provisions for the disposition of recovered cultural items that are not burial associated,which are addressed in Public Resources Code(PRC)§5097.98, in consultation with culturally affiliated Native Americans. • Lead agencies should include provisions for discovery of Native American human remains in their mitigation plan.

Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 7 2 Responses to Comments Response A - Native American Heritage Commission A-1 This comment states that the lead agency is required to assess whether the project will have an adverse impact on historical resources within the area of project effect. To adequately assess and mitigate project-related impacts, the comment includes recommended actions, including a record search, archaeological inventory survey, and a Sacred Lands File Check. The proposed project does not involve any development activity. At the time development applications are received, the City will evaluate the potential impacts to cultural resources on a project-by-project basis pursuant to CEQA/NEPA and may include a Sacred Lands File search and/or tribal consultation, as applicable. The City will comply with all applicable state and federal regulations regarding cultural resources. As stated in the 2012 Initial Study prepared for the proposed project, in the unlikely event that resources are discovered, compliance with existing regulatory procedures would be required. No further response is required. This response does not identify any new information. 8 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Responses to Comments 2 Comment B - California Department of Transportation - District 7 STATE OF CALIFORNIA—CALIFnR A'A STATF,TRANSPORTATION AGENCY MW It D G.BROWN Jr..Co gg DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT 7-OFFICE OF TRANSPORTATION PLANNING 100 S.MAIN STREET,MS 16 LOS ANGELES,CA 90012 NO PHONE(213)897-9140 Vwhl FAX (213)897-1337 Help watereriousdrwale, www.dot.ca.gov H sour ' January 5,2015 Mr.S.Kevin Wilson City of Vernon 4305 Santa Fe Ave. Vernon,CA 90058 RE:Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update-Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Vic.LA-710/PM 21.92 SCH#2007061031 IGR/CEQA No. 141224AL-SEIR Dear Mr.Wilson: "Thank you for including the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in the environmental review process for the above referenced project. The proposed project is a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report of the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update. In Caltrans'Guide for the Preparation of Traffic Impact Studies,December 2002,"The level of service (LOS) for operating State highway facilities is based upon measures of effectiveness (MOEs). Caltrans endeavors to maintain a target LOS at the transition between LOS `C' and LOS `D' on State highway facilities. If an existing State highway facility is operating at less B-1 than the appropriate target LOS,the existing MOE should be maintained." The Interstate 710 freeway(1-710)is operating near or at capacity during the peak hours at this time. The off-ramps at southbound 1-710 and Bandini Blvd. and at northbound 1-710 and Atlantic Blvd. should be analyzed in the General Plan traffic study. As a reminder,Caltrans encourages the City to work with neighboring developing cities such as City of Bell and Commerce to resolve any cumulative significant traffic impacts on the State facilities. The plan to work with the neighboring cities should be discussed in the Circulation Element of the General Plan or a new Resolution/Policy should be passed such as follows: • The City will work with neighboring cities to address cumulative significant traffic B-2 impact on the 1-710 freeway and on/off ramps as a result of build out of the General Plan • The City will work with Caltrans to identify potential cumulative traffic impact and "Provide a safe,sustainable,integrated and efficient transportation system to enhance California's economy and livability" Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 9 2 Responses to Comments Mr.S.Kevin Wilson January 5,2015 Page 2 mitigation measures. • The City will form a fair share fee program working with neighboring cities to improve the State facilities off-ramp operation (1-710 and S Atlantic Blvd.) such as phasing improvement at Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard before the I-710 Improvement is implemented. • The City's existing traffic impact fees will include any State facility improvement as part B-2(cont.) of the cumulative traffic impact. Procuring funds toward freeway segments, freeway interchanges,freeway on/off-ramps,as well as for bus and rail transit facilities will be in the goals of the City. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Alan Lin the project coordinator at(213) 897-8391 and refer to IGR/CEQA No. 141224AL. Sincerely, D&NNA WATSON Branch Chief Community Planning&LD IGR Review cc:Scott Morgan,State Clearinghouse "Provide a safe,sastmnahk.integrated and efficient transportation.system to enhance California's economy and hwhility" 10 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Responses to Comments 2 Response B - California Department of Transportation - District 7 B-1 Caltrans states that a target LOS at the transition between LOS C and LOS D on State highway facilities should be maintained. If an existing State highway is operating at less than the appropriate target LOS, the existing measure of effectiveness should be maintained. Caltrans notes that Interstate 710 (I-710) currently operates near or at capacity during the peak hours and that the off-ramps at southbound I-710 and Bandini Boulevard and at northbound I-710 and Atlantic Boulevard should be analyzed. The traffic study prepared for the proposed project analyzed the City's arterial street network and included analysis of the Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard intersection, which interacts directly with the I- 710 on- and off-ramps. As discussed on page 4.4-2 of the SEIR, this intersection directly impacts the freeway interchange, particularly due to the substantial truck traffic in the area and trucks originating from the Hobart Rail Yard. Table 4.4-2 in the SEIR indicates that the Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard intersection currently operates at LOS F during both the morning and evening peak periods. Engineering studies sponsored in part by the Gateway Cities Council of Governments call for improvements to the interchange that could include dedicated truck ramps. However, as stated on page 4.4-2 of the SEIR, detailed engineering plans and studies for this interchange will continue to concert with broader plans for improvements to I-710, with expected improvements to the interchange to be accomplished prior to 2030. The timing will depend upon State approvals and funding. The environmental documents for the I-710 improvement project, outlining the alternatives for this interchange, have yet to be released. Once implemented, the interchange improvements are expected to relieve a major traffic bottleneck and improve safety by separating autos from heavy truck traffic. This comment does not identify any significant new information and does not comment on the adequacy of the environmental analysis in the SEIR. B-2 Caltrans encourages the City of Vernon to work with neighboring cities to resolve traffic impacts on the freeways and State highways, particularly with regard to: • I-710 freeway on/off ramps • Cumulative traffic impacts • The need for fair-share payment of improvements at Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard precedent to completion of the I-710 improvement project • Payment of traffic impact fees Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 11 2 Responses to Comments The Vernon General Plan Circulation Element already contains the following policies focused on regional cooperation to improve mobility, including both physical improvements and increased use of alternative transit modes. Policy CI-1.7: Encourage the continued improvement of services provided by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority to Vernon and adjacent cities to provide good access from home to job to job to home for persons employed in Vernon. Policy CI-1.9: Continue to work with Caltrans and neighboring jurisdictions to improve the Atlantic/Bandini/I-710 intersection and to make improvements to the I-710 Freeway, including direct truck ramps to the rail yards and exploring the potential for adding an interchange at Slauson Avenue to improve access to the City. Policy CI-1.12: Consider installing and maintaining an ATSAC system to improve traffic flow. Policy CI-1.13: Cooperate with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority and other local agencies in their efforts to complete a bicycle path along the levee of the Los Angeles River connecting to adjacent jurisdictions. The Gateway Cities Council of Governments, in which Vernon and adjacent jurisdictions participate, has initiated preparation of a Strategic Transportation Plan for the region. The consultant leading the effort will be completing a detailed study of freeways and arterials within the Gateway Cities region, with the goal of identifying a multitude of ways to improve regional mobility. The study will address multimodal mobility, including the improvements identified by Caltrans to I-710 ramps and the Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard interchange. Also, the study will identify funding and financing strategies. The City notes that longer-term enhancements to the ramps and interchange will be accomplished as part of Caltrans' I-710 improvement project. With regard to funding of long-term improvements, Vernon does not charge traffic impact fees at this time. Any improvements to the street/circulation system are funded consistent with Capital Improvement Program directives, with funding sources such as the general fund, gas tax proceeds, and grants. Other agencies are responsible for funding improvements to regional facilities such as freeway segments, interchanges, and ramps, and bus and transit facilities. State gas tax and other revenue sources—to which the City of Vernon and property and business owners contribute—pay for such improvements. This comment does not identify any significant new information and does not comment on the adequacy of the environmental analysis in the SEIR. 12 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Responses to Comments 2 Comment C - The Ness Companies RECEIVE® The Ness Companies FEB 0 2 201� Nemax,[tic. - TRI-Ness - KLN Development,LLC Wnrl�cr Water& Commercial Properly Managemeni and Development Development Services January 26,2015 City of Vernon Mr.S.Kevin Wilson,PE,Director,Sergio Canales,Assistant Planner Richard Maisano,Councilmember,Luz A.Martinez,Councilmember 4305 Sante Fe Avenue Vernon,CA 90058 RE: Zoning Ordinance Amendment-3121 Fruitland Avenue,Vernon Dear Sir, The purpose of this letter is to respond to the Zoning Ordinance Amendment and the upcoming workshops.

The California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) Statutes (Public Resources Code Sections 21000 through 21178), Section 21081 requires the Lead Agency(City of Vernon)to issue written findings for significant impacts identified in the Environmental Impact Report (EIR), accompanied by a brief rationale for each finding. Section 15091 of the CEQA Guidelines states that: "(a) No public agency shall approve or carry out a project for which an environmental impact report has been certified which identifies one or more significant environmental effects of the project unless the public agency makes one or more written findings for each of those significant effects, accompanied by a brief explanation of the rationale for each finding: The possible findings are: (1) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the Final EIR. (2) Such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and have been, or can and should be, adopted by that other agency. (3) Specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the mitigation measures or alternatives identified in the environmental impact report. (b) With respect to significant effects which were subject to a finding under paragraph (3) of subdivision (a), the public agency finds that specific overriding economic, legal, social, technological or other benefits of the project outweigh the significant effects on the environment." In accordance with Section 21081 of the CEQA Statutes, whenever significant impacts cannot be substantially mitigated and remain unavoidable, the benefits of the proposed project must be balanced against the unavoidable environmental consequences in determining whether to approve the proposed project. The Lead Agency must make Findings of Fact and adopt a Statement of Overriding Considerations where the decision of the Lead Agency allows the occurrence of significant effects that are identified in the EIR, but are not substantially mitigated. This document sets forth the City of Vernon's Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations, pursuant to Section 21081 of the CEQA Statutes, as supported by substantial evidence in the record. Project Description The proposed project is the adoption and implementation of a focused updated to the City of Vernon General Plan, referred to herein as the General Plan, and the adoption of focused amendments to the City of Vernon Zoning Ordinance. The project consists of several components: • Update the Land Use Element to expand the locations where commercial uses and trucking and freight terminals can be established in the City. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 3 I Findings of Fact • Update the Land Use, Resources, Safety, and Noise Elements to comply all current State laws and to update pertinent information. • Update the Implementation Plan with new applicable policies related to the above revised policy changes. • Revise the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map to establish and apply a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay(TF)to over approximately 1,065 acres of land zoned for industrial use. • Revise the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map to replace and expand the existing Commercial Overlay with the new C-1 and C-2 Commercial Overlays,with the overlay zones to be applied to approximately 281 acres and 177 acres, respectively. • Establish a new Minor Conditional Use Permit process. • Provide standards for digital billboards. • Perform additional clean-up, non-substantive revisions to the Zoning Ordinance that do not affect any prior policy directives. Initial Study and Notice of Preparation In accordance with Section 15063 of the CEQA Guidelines, a Lead Agency must conduct an Initial Study following preliminary review of a proposed project. Based on an initial project description, the City prepared an Initial Study in September of 2012, and prepared and published a Notice of Preparation (NOP). The NOP was circulated for public review and comment for a 30-day review period beginning on September 13, 2012. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15163, the City, as the Lead Agency, has prepared a Supplement to the previously certified General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Program Environmental Impact Report(SCH No. 2007061031). Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program As required by CEQA Statute 21081.6, a program for reporting on and monitoring mitigation measures will be adopted by the Lead Agency. Location of Documents The Draft SEIR, Final SEIR, and administrative record for the City of Vernon Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update are available for review upon request at: City of Vernon, Community Services Department 4305 South Santa Fe Avenue Vernon, California 90058 (323) 583-8811 4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 2 Findings on Significant and Unavoidable and Potentially Significant Impacts Discussion of Findings Where, as a result of the environmental analysis of the proposed project and the compliance with existing laws, codes, and statutes, and the identification of feasible mitigation measures, potentially significant impacts have been determined by the City to be reduced to a level of less than significant. The City has found in accordance with CEQA Section 21081(a)(1) and CEQA Guidelines Section 15091(a)(1)that"(c)hanges or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which mitigate or avoid the significant effects on the environment." Such a finding is referred to herein as Finding 1. Where the City has determined pursuant to CEQA Section 21081(a)(2) and CEQA Guidelines Section 15091(a)(2) that "(t)hose changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and have been, or can and should be, adopted by that other agency," the City's finding is referred to as Finding 2. For the subject SEIR, this finding is not required to be made because all mitigation is under the jurisdiction of the Lead Agency. Where, as a result of the environmental analysis of the project, the City has determined that: a) even with the identification of project design features, compliance with existing laws, codes and statutes, and/or the identification of feasible mitigation measures, potentially significant impacts cannot be reduced to a level of less than significant; or b) no feasible mitigation measures or alternatives are available to mitigate the potentially significant impact, the City has found in accordance with CEQA Section 21081(a)(3) and CEQA Guidelines Section 15091(a)(3) that "(s)pecific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the mitigation measures or alternatives identified in the environmental impact report."Such a finding is referred to as Finding 3. References for discussion of environmental impacts within the SEIR are noted with each finding. Impact numbers refer to the section number and the threshold letter referenced in the SEIR where the full discussion of impacts is included. Transportation and Traffic Impacts 4.4.A and 4.4.13 Long-term implementation of land use policy, in combination with regional contributions to traffic on the local road network, as analyzed in the certified General Plan EIR, resulted in significant and unavoidable impacts. Impacts related to the addition of the Truck and Freight Overlay and the increase in the Commercial Overlay District will not be substantial when compared to the analysis provided in the certified General Plan EIR. Consistent with the certified General Plan EIR, impacts will remain significant and unavoidable. Evidence supporting the fact that the environmental effects identified in Impacts 4.4.A and 4.4.13 are unavoidable is provided in Section 4.4 of the SEIR. The certified General Plan EIR identifies physical improvements to a number of roadways that will improve local and regional traffic flow. Circulation and Infrastructure Element Policy CI-1.12 and Mitigation Measure T-1, over the long term, provide for installation and maintenance of an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) that will improve traffic flow. Implementation of these improvements is anticipated to increase circulation system performance. Other mitigation measures, listed below, were also incorporated to further reduce potential circulation system impacts related to coordinating with adjacent jurisdictions, agencies, and rail companies to minimize traffic interference. However, due to the lack of right-of-way to make additional physical improvements, lack of local control over regional system elements, and uncertainty in funding, impacts were determined to be significant and unavoidable. Implementation of the Truck and Freight Overlay and the increase in the Commercial Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 5 2 Findings on Significant and Unavoidable and Potentially Significant Impacts Overlay District will not be substantial when compared to the analysis provided in the certified General Plan EIR. Consistent with the certified General Plan EIR, impacts will remain significant and unavoidable. T-1 Automated Traffic Surveillance and Control System (ATSAC). Conduct a study to determine if ATSAC would be a beneficial and cost-effective system for the City to operate and maintain. T-2 Coordinate with Adjacent Jurisdictions. Continue to coordinate intersection maintenance and improvements with adjacent jurisdictions so that intersections along Soto Street, Pacific Boulevard, Slauson Avenue, Alameda Street, Atlantic Boulevard, Bandini Boulevard, and Downey Road operate at an acceptable Level of Service. T-3 Coordinate with Rail Companies. Coordinate with railroad companies in removing obsolete rail spurs. Work to minimize traffic impacts to City streets from trucks using Hobart Yard facilities and other multi-modal transportation yards. T-4 Coordination with Metropolitan Transportation Authority. Work with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority(Metro)to achieve the following: - Implement the Metro's Congestion Management Plan (CMP)within the City. - Continue to provide local and regional connections through Metro local and rapid bus lines. - Improve access to local Metro stations. T-5 Minimize Parking Impacts. Work with businesses to develop creative strategies and solutions to address parking shortages. Require new development projects to meet the minimum parking standards in the Zoning Ordinance for both trucks and automobiles, including truck trailer storage, employee parking, and visitor parking. T-6 Soto Street Widening. At the time properties along Soto Street are redeveloped or as otherwise dictated by City plans for the widening of Soto Street, require the dedication of rights-of-way to achieve the road standard for Soto Street established in the Circulation and Infrastructure Element. Complete the road widening project at the time adequate rights-of-way have been acquired and/or dedicated. T-7 Interstate 710 Freeway Improvements. Work with Caltrans on all plans, activities, and projects regarding Intersection 710 that may directly impact Vernon's roadway facilities and traffic patterns. Coordinate with the Gateway Cities Council of Governments and Southern California Association of Governments on studies and programs regarding the improvements to the 1-710 freeway. T-8 Other Improvements. At Santa Fe Avenue and 381" Street, stripe an eastbound left-turn lane within existing right-of-way to provide additional intersection capacity. Finding Regarding Impacts 4.4.A and 4.4.13, the City hereby makes Finding 3 that no feasible mitigation measures or alternatives exist to mitigate the above-discussed potentially significant impacts to less-than-significant levels. 6 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Findings on Significant and Unavoidable and Potentially Significant Impacts 2 Findings on Significant Impacts that Can Be Mitigated Hazards and Hazardous Materials Impacts 4.2.A, 4.2.13, and 4.2.0 Section 4.2 (Hazards and Hazardous Materials) of the SEIR identifies significant impacts involving the use, transport, and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes. The project could result in potentially a significant impact involving the use,transport, and disposal of hazardous materials, as 40 to 60 percent of all businesses in Vernon store, use, or manufacture hazardous materials to the extent that a City hazardous materials permit is required. However, pursuant to the discussion in Section 4.2 of the SEIR, any potentially significant impacts involving hazards can be reduced to a level of insignificance with mitigation and implementation of General Plan policies and actions. Accordingly, based on substantial evidence in the SEIR and the Public Record of Proceedings, the City finds and declares that, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15091(a), changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the project which will avoid, mitigate, or substantially lessen any of the project's impacts involving hazardous materials to a less-than-significant level. Any impact involving hazards has been eliminated or substantially lessened to a level that is less than significant by virtue of the following mitigation measures as identified by the certified General Plan EIR, and incorporated into the project. H-1 The City will continue to implement the provisions of City ordinances to provide for the business occupancy inspection program and the regular inspection of businesses involved in the production, storage, handling, disposal, treatment, emission, discharge, or recycling of hazardous materials. Such activity will be funded as part of the City's annual budgeting process, special tax, and/or will be funded as a fee program. H-2 At the time any new or revised Hazardous Material Business application for a new business or activity is received for a location within one-quarter mile of any residence, school, hospital, residential assisted care facility, or similar use (sensitive uses may be located within the City or outside its boundaries), or greater distance as may be determined by the Director of Environmental Health Department for particular business types, the City will review the application and determine whether a Health Risk Assessment(HRA) is required pursuant to State law and/or City Ordinance 961 to address any potential impacts to these uses. If an HRA is deemed appropriate and further, if the HRA identifies potential risks associated with the business activity relative to proximity to the residence, school, hospital, residential assisted care facility or similar use, the City shall ensure that action is taken to address such risk. The action may consist of: - Denying the application within the limits of the Code of the City of Vernon, or - Requiring the business operator to incorporate preventative or ameliorative measures into the business processes or activities to lower the risk to acceptable levels, as set forth by federal or state regulations and policies. Mitigation Measure H-1 ensures that the City will continue to provide for the business occupancy inspection program and the regular inspection of businesses. Mitigation Measure H-2 ensures that a Health Risk Assessment will be prepared when the City deems it appropriate to address risks to any nearby sensitive receptors. Therefore, the project will have a less-than-significant impact with mitigation. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 7 2 Findings on Significant and Unavoidable and Potentially Significant Impacts Finding Regarding Impacts 4.2.A, 4.2.B, and 4.2.C, the City hereby makes Finding 1 that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project that mitigate or avoid the significant effects on the environment. Noise Section 4.3 of the SEIR analyzes the potential for significant impacts involving noise from long-term implementation of the General Plan land use plan. However, pursuant to the discussion in Section 4.3 of the EIR, any potentially significant impacts related to future development can be reduced to a level of insignificance with mitigation. The City concurs in this analysis. Accordingly, based on substantial evidence in the EIR and the Public Record of Proceedings, the City finds and declares that, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15091(a), changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Project which will avoid, mitigate, or substantially lessen any future impacts involving short- and long-term noise to a less than significant level. Implementation of the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update may result in future development with the potential to produce noise during construction and operations. Any impacts related to noise due to future development will be analyzed on a case-by-case basis. Any impact resulting from short- and long-term noise can been substantially lessened to a level that is less than significant by virtue of the following mitigation measures, as identified by the certified General Plan EIR and incorporated into the project. N-1 Noise Regulations. Continue to enforce City noise regulations contained in the Zoning Ordinance to protect residents and school children from excessive noise levels associated with stationary noise sources. Periodically evaluate regulations for adequacy and revise, as needed, to address community needs and changes in legislation and technology. N-2 Siting of New Businesses and Activities near Sensitive Land Uses. Review all development proposals and building permits within the City to determine whether the proposed use has the potential to exceed City one-hour noise standards. The City's standards are lower at locations near existing residences and schools. As appropriate, require acoustical analyses for all such development and activities near such uses, and determine if mitigation measures are required. Require property and business owners to implement mitigation to achieve City noise standards. Mitigation Measures N-1 and N-2 ensure that the City will continue to enforce noise regulations and review all development proposals and building permits to determine whether a proposed use has the potential to exceed City noise standards. Therefore,the project will have a less-than-significant impact with mitigation. Finding Regarding impacts related to noise, the City hereby makes Finding 1 that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into,the project that mitigate or avoid significant effects on the environment. 8 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 3 Impacts Considered in the Initial Study but Found not to Be Potentially Significant The City conducted an Initial Study dated September 12, 2012 for the purpose of determining whether the project would result in potentially significant environmental impacts beyond those analyzed in the certified General Plan EIR. The analysis in the Initial Study concluded that, consistent with the certified General Plan EIR, potentially significant impacts would result relative to air quality, hazards and hazardous materials, transportation/traffic, water supply and solid waste, and noise. These impacts were examined in the Supplemental EIR, with the conclusions made in the Final SEIR as presented in Section 2 of this document. The Initial Study further concluded that no potentially significant impacts or less-than-significant impacts would result relative to: • Aesthetics • Agricultural Resources • Air Quality:Air Quality Plan, Objectionable Odors • Biological Resources • Cultural Resources • Geology and Soils • Hazardous Materials: Airport Land Use Plan hazards, airstrip safety hazards, impair implementation or interfere with an adopted emergency response plan, and exposure to wildland fires • Hydrology and Water Quality: Violate water quality standards, alter existing drainage pattern resulting in flooding or erosion, create or contribute to runoff water, degrade water quality, place housing or structures within a 100-year flood hazard area, expose people to loss related to failure of dam or levee, inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow • Land Use and Planning • Mineral Resources • Noise: Expose people to substantial airport noise proximate to airport land use plan or airstrip • Population and Housing • Public Services • Recreation • Transportation and Traffic: Result in a change in air traffic patterns or substantially increase hazards due to design features, increase hazards due to design feature, result in inadequate emergency access, parking capacity, and conflict with policies supporting alternative transportation. • Utilities The analysis and findings relative to the above environmental issues are contained in the Initial Study, which is included as Appendix A of the SEIR, and are incorporated herein by reference. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 9 3 Impacts Considered in the Initial Study but Found not to be Potentially Significant This Page Intentionally Left Blank 10 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 4 Findings on Project Alternatives Considered in the Environmental Impact Report The Alternatives section of the Supplemental EIR was prepared in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15126(d), which requires the analysis of a reasonable range of alternatives capable of eliminating or reducing significant adverse environmental effects of the proposed project. The Alternatives section analyzes the effects of the following alternatives: 1) No Project/Existing General Plan 2) Additional railway/roadway grade separations 3) Zoning Ordinance provisions that allow warehousing facilities of less than 50,000 square feet citywide 4) No truck and freight terminal overlay Alternative 1. No Project/Existing General Plan The purpose of analyzing a No Project Alternative is to allow decision-makers to compare the impacts of approving the proposed project to the impacts of not approving the project. This alternative assumes that the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates would not be adopted and implemented. Instead, the development in the City would continue to occur in conformance with the current land use policy map and current zoning regulations, as described in the certified EIR. The General Plan update analyzed in the certified EIR included the establishment of a Commercial Overlay District and the elimination of the so-called 2009 Rule that required all businesses that have nonconforming parking and/or loading facilities to achieve conformity by 2009. The No Project alternative would have resulted in the continued implementation of the 2009 Rule and the General Plan land uses without the Commercial Overlay. In particular, the current Commercial Overlay would remain in effect; the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates would replace the current Commercial Overlay with two expanded C-1 and C-2 Overlays along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Soto Street north of Fruitland Avenue, East Slauson Avenue, and along the eastern boundary of the City. Also, the No Project alternative would not involve establishment of a Truck and Freight Terminal north of 37th Street west of Downey Road and north of the Los Angeles River east of Downey Road. The No Project alternative analyzed in the certified EIR has the potential to accelerate privately initiated reuse and redevelopment activity due to the application of the 2009 Rule and thereby, possibly to reduce overall building area in Vernon. The certified EIR determined that depending on the types of development proposed over the long term, reduced development citywide would reduce vehicle trips and associated air emissions, and decrease demand for potable water. Vernon consists almost entirely of industrial uses, and the extent of businesses using or storing hazardous materials could be expected to remain, depending upon the individual new uses established over the long term. The SEIR concluded the overall level of impact of Alternative 1 would be slightly lower than that associated with the proposed project. The continued application of the 2009 Rule has the potential to improve traffic flow on City streets, as on-street loading activity would be prohibited and on-street parking minimized due to the enforcement of off-street parking requirements. In this regard, the No Project Alternative was considered environmentally superior to the proposed project. With regard to noise impacts, almost all local impacts are associated with regional traffic noise and rail traffic, neither of which would be expected to be affected by the No Project scenario. No change in impact would result. The General Plan Land Use plan designates the entire city as Industrial, with commercial uses allowed only within the designated Commercial Overlay and new residential uses limited to a strictly defined housing overlay area. The proposed project includes the expansion and implementation of two commercial overlay zones and the establishment Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 11 4 Findings on Project Alternatives Considered in the Environmental Impact Report of a Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone. The focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates do not propose any changes to underlying land use designations or building intensities. Consistent with the adopted General Plan, privately initiated reuse and redevelopment activity would result in overall reduced building area in Vernon with the enforcement of parking and setback requirements. Impacts related to air quality, hazards, noise, traffic, and utilities for the No Project alternative would be equivalent to impacts associated with the proposed project. Finding Specific economic and public health and safety considerations make this alternative infeasible. Facts in Support of the Finding New policies and zoning regulations will facilitate establishment of commercial uses in close proximity to industrial businesses, which will benefit the local economy by providing new tax-generating uses. Also, locating commercial uses in Vernon in limited areas will allow employees of industrial businesses to travel shorter distances for restaurants, goods, and services, which will reduce vehicle miles traveled and associated emissions. Establishing the Trucking and Freight Overlay will allow such uses to be established nearer the businesses and logistics centers dependent upon trucking operations. Based on these facts and findings,the City rejects adoption of this alternative. Alternative 2. Additional Railway/Roadway Grade Separations Many rail lines cross streets in Vernon at grade, with frequent train activity between the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach largely serving the Hobart Yard and other regional cargo redistribution facilities. Intense rail activity historically has created rail/roadway conflicts in Vernon. However, as stated in the certified General Plan EIR, the City has experienced a substantial decrease in rail traffic and associated congestion as a result of the 2002 completion of the expressway Alameda Corridor. The key environmental impact identified in the certified General Plan EIR was traffic, with delays continuing to be associated in part by rail operations. This alternative, as analyzed in the certified EIR, considers including specific policies in the General Plan to pursue rail/road grade separations at Bandini Boulevard/Downey Road, Pacific Avenue,Vernon Avenue, and District Boulevard/Downey Road. The Circulation and Infrastructure Element,which was analyzed previously in the certified General Plan EIR, includes the following policy,which is non-specific regarding grade separations to be pursued: POLICY CI-1.6: Continue to pursue grade separation for railroad crossings on designated streets. The City has not conducted an analysis of the effects of providing grade separations at the above locations. However, such improvements would have the potential to improve traffic flow and possibly result in reduced air pollutant emissions due to reduced vehicle idling time while waiting for trains to cross roadways. With this assumption, traffic and air quality impacts associated with Alternative 2 would be expected to be reduced relative to the proposed project. With regard to hazards, increased grade separations would reduce the risk of train/roadway vehicle accidents at those locations where separations would be provided. Risk of upset would be slightly reduced. With regard to water use, grade separations would have no effect. Finding Specific economic considerations make this alternative infeasible. Facts in Support of the Finding The City has not identified funding for any grade separations in its current Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Also, responsible rail companies have not identified or funded any separations to be accomplished. Based on these facts and findings,the City rejects adoption of this alternative. 12 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Findings on Project Alternatives Considered in the Environmental Impact Report 4 Alternative 3. Zoning Provisions to Permit Warehousing Citywide At the time of preparation of the certified General Plan EIR, the Zoning Ordinance did not allow new non-refrigerated warehouse facilities larger than 50,000 square feet to locate anywhere in Vernon. The certified General Plan EIR examined the alternative of allowing non-refrigerated warehouse facilities of less than 50,000 square feet to be established (Alternative 3). However, since certification of the Program EIR, the Zoning Ordinance has been amended to allow warehouses uses of any size to locate within the Industrial zone, which encompasses the entire city. Therefore, Alternative 3 analyzed in the certified EIR is no longer applicable and was not discussed or analyzed further in the Supplemental EIR. Alternative 4. No Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay This alternative assumes that the proposed Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone would not be established. The proposed focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates provide for a Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone to be applied north of 37th Street and the Los Angeles River and to encompass approximately 1,065 acres. The Vernon Zoning Ordinance defines a freight terminal as a location where goods or freight are transferred or redistributed from one vehicle to another. A truck terminal is defined as a facility used primarily for storage, maintenance, or servicing of highway-type vehicles, not limited to trucks and buses. Elimination of the Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone from the proposed project has the potential to reduce traffic, air quality, and noise impacts. Freight terminals include high turnover of transported goods, resulting in increased and continuous truck trips in the area. Diesel trucks are a major contributor to PM2.5 concentrations, and truck and freight terminal uses could increase the number of diesel trucks on local roads, thereby increasing the area's PM2.5 concentrations. Overall, local and regional air quality impacts would be reduced under this alternative. Because truck and freight terminal use, if allowed, could result in additional truck traffic due to the intensive trucking operations associated with such uses, impacts on the transportation system could be slightly reduced if exclusive without truck and freight terminal uses were not allowed as proposed. The largest contributor to the ambient noise environment in Vernon is vehicle traffic, especially that of heavy-duty trucks. Noise also is associated with many of the industrial operations occurring citywide. Truck and freight terminal uses would contribute to noise from the delivery systems inherent in their operations,with large trucks driving into the City for deliveries, pick-ups, and servicing. On site, most noise is generated by loading dock operations, trucks entering and leaving the area, and mechanical equipment located both inside and outside the building. As truck and freight terminal uses may have higher levels of noise on site associated with the continuous loading and unloading of goods, noise impacts would be slightly reduced if truck and freight terminal uses were not allowed. However, given the almost exclusively industrial nature of Vernon, noise levels generally are not considered a concern. Many industrial facilities in Vernon use and store hazardous materials. Businesses are required to obtain hazardous materials permits for keeping those materials at the business. In the Industrial zone, hazardous waste facilities require a Conditional Use Permit. The uses—whether warehousing, manufacturing, or truck and freight terminal— would be subject to the same local, state, and federal regulations regarding hazardous materials. Because a similar amount and type of hazardous materials would likely be present in the planning area under this alternative, this alternative would result in a similar impact related to hazards,which is less than significant. Trucking and freight terminal uses are relatively low impact on water and solid waste systems, in comparison to many industrial uses. Industrial uses have the potential to be very water intensive, especially if water is used for cooling in an industrial process. Truck and freight terminals, by comparison, generally use less water. Additionally, because manufacturing does not occur on site with truck and freight terminal uses, the level of waste generated would be comparably less. The primary waste product from truck and freight terminal activities is likely to be packaging materials and waste from the repair and maintenance of vehicles. Overall, the impact on utilities (excluding roads) would be slightly increased if truck and terminal uses were not allowed. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 13 4 Findings on Project Alternatives Considered in the Environmental Impact Report Finding The City finds that Alternative 4 represents an acceptable alternative, as it would represent continued application of current land use regulations and would result in slightly reduced impacts related to air quality, hazards, traffic, water, and landfills. 14 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 5 Implementation Schedule Given the long-term nature of General Plan implementation and enforcement of Zoning Ordinance regulations, the mitigation measures set forth in Section 2 of this document and documented in the Final SEIR will be implemented over time as needed. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 15 5 Implementation Schedule This Page Intentionally Left Blank 16 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 6 Statement of Overriding Considerations The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires that a Lead Agency balance the benefits of a project against its unavoidable environmental risk in determining whether to approve the project. If the benefits outweigh the unavoidable adverse effects, those effects may be considered "acceptable" pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15093(a). CEQA requires that a Lead Agency support, in writing, the specific reasons for considering a project acceptable when significant impacts are infeasible to mitigate. Those reasons must be based on substantial evidence in the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) or elsewhere in the administrative record pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15093(b). The Lead Agency's written reasons are referred to as a Statement of Overriding Considerations. The City will approve the City of Vernon Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates and implementing actions, and has prepared a Supplemental EIR that satisfies the requirements of CEQA. The following adverse impacts of the proposed project are considered significant and unavoidable based on the analysis in the Draft SEIR, Final SEIR, and the Findings of Fact. Impact 4.4.A and 4.4.B: Circulation System Performance. Long-term implementation of land use policy, in combination with regional contributions to traffic on the local road network, will cause an increase in traffic that will result in inadequate Level of Service. Impacts will be significant and unavoidable. The City has determined that the SEIR has identified and discussed significant effects which may occur as a result of the proposed project. With the implementation of the policies of the General Plan and mitigation measures identified in the certified General Plan EIR, these effects can be reduced to levels of less than significant except for the significant impacts identified above, consistent with the findings of the certified General Plan EIR. The City declares that, having reduced the adverse significant environmental effects of the proposed project to the extent feasible, having considered the entire administrative record on the proposed project, and having weighed the benefits of the proposed project against its unavoidable adverse impacts, the City has determined that each of the following social, economic, and environmental benefits of the proposed project separately and individually outweigh the potential unavoidable adverse impacts, and render those potential adverse environmental impacts acceptable based upon the following overriding considerations: 1. Long-Term Fiscal Stability and Diversity of Jobs. Implementation of Land Use Element policies and application of Zoning Ordinance provisions will allow the City to maintain a strong tax base and thereby provide for long-term fiscal stability. Land use policies and zoning regulations will allow Vernon to continue to be largely an industrial city,where diverse businesses provide jobs for skilled workers in varied industries. As a city focused on industry, Vernon fills a unique role in the region as a location where industrial businesses are welcomed. 2. Increased Regulation of Businesses Locating near Residences and Schools. The General Plan includes policies, implemented through the Zoning Ordinance, that require new businesses locating within one-tenth of a mile of residences and schools—both in Vernon and adjacent cities—to maintain noise at levels that will not adversely affect conditions at these sensitive receptors. 3. Accommodating Limited Commercial Uses. General Plan land use policy, implemented through the Zoning Ordinance, will allow commercial uses to establish along key corridors in Vernon and provide needed goods and services for local employees. The benefits include additional tax revenues to fund City services and reduced vehicle miles traveled/associated vehicle emissions due to more localized availability of commercial goods and services. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 17 6 Statement of Overriding Considerations 4. Legally Adequate General Plan.The updated General Plan contains all components required by State law and establishes a clear framework for decision-making. 5. Zoning Ordinance Consistent with the General Plan. By completing update of the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance simultaneously, full consistency between the two can be achieved, and the Zoning Ordinance can serve as an effective tool for implementing goals and policies contained in the General Plan. 18 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Attachment H 5 Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program FOCUSED GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING ORDINANCE UPDATE Supplemental Environmental Impact Report: Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program Monitoring Action Verification of Compliance Mitigation Measures Timing/ Indicating Monitoring Agency Initials Date Remarks Frequency Compliance Hazards and Hazardous Materials Mitigation Measures The City will continue to implement the provisions of City ordinances to provide for the business occupancy inspection program and the regular inspection of Director of H-1 businesses involved in the production, storage, Ongoing Conduct regular Environmental handling, disposals, treatment, emission, discharge, or inspections Health recycling of hazardous materials.

Find that the proposed action is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") in accordance with (i) CEQA Guidelines section 15061 (b) (3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment and (ii) CEQA Guidelines section 15308 because the actions to be funded by the grant are to protect the environment; and 2. Adopt the attached Resolution approving and authorizing the execution of an application for an Enforcement Assistance Grant from the California Department of Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) for FY 2015-2016, and authorize the Director of Health & Environmental Control to apply for, receive and expend said grant funds. BACKGROUND: The Department of Health and Environmental Control is requesting authorization to apply, receive and spend funds for a Solid Waste Enforcement Agency Grant from the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle). With the grant monies the Department intends to procure equipment and supplies, obtain the necessary training to help meet our state-mandated responsibilities as a Solid Waste Local Enforcement Agency (LEA), and use remaining funds to partially off-set salary costs. All of these are permitted expenditures under grant funding guidelines. CalRecycle annually issues enforcement assistance grants to LEAS. Funds are available to improve the capability of local agencies to inspect closed and active solid waste facilities. The Department has successfully applied for and received grant monies from the CalRecycle for the last several years. With one permitted solid waste facility and ten closed sites within our jurisdiction, the Department, as the LEA, is eligible for $15,551.00 in Enforcement Agency Grant funds from CalRecycle to procure necessary equipment, supplies, and training. FISCAL IMPACT: No negative fiscal impact is expected by approving this request. The grant funds will benefit the City by reducing the amount of City funds needed to conduct mandated solid waste programs. Attachments: 1.

STAFF REPORT CITY ADMINISTRATION DATE: April 7,2015 TO: Honorable City Council FROM: Mark C. Whitworth, City Administrator M W/Ks= RE: Appointment of Resident(Non-City Council Member) to Fill Vernon Housing Commission Vacancy Recommendations Staff recommends the City Council: 1. Find that the action recommended in this staff report is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment. 2. Ratify the Mayor's selection of Steven Froberg to serve on the Vernon Housing Commission for the remaining term of the vacant Resident (non-City Council member) seat,which expires August 2017. Background Effective March 3, 2015, Mayor McCormick resigned from his Resident(City Council member) seat on the Vernon Housing Commission. The Mayor's resignation was prompted by the election of fellow Housing Commissioner Melissa Ybarra to the Vernon City Council. On March 3, 2015, the City Council accepted the Mayor's resignation and approved the reassignment of Melissa Ybarra to the Resident(City Council member) seat on the Housing Commission,thereby creating a vacancy in the Resident(non-City Council member) seat. The term for the vacant seat expires August 2017. In or around July 2013, City staff broadly publicized the opportunity for three new Housing Commission terms, one of which was for the Resident(non-City Council member) seat. Staff received a total of three completed interest forms for said seat, including one from Melissa Ybarra. The remaining two interest forms were submitted by Carol Menke and Steven Froberg. Both Ms. Menke and Mr. Froberg have recently confirmed their continued interest and availability to serve on the Housing Commission. Pursuant to Section 2.123(b) of the Vernon City Code, when a Housing Commission vacancy occurs, the Mayor is required to select for ratification by the City Council a successor with the same qualifications to serve the unexpired term within 30 days after the seat becomes vacant. Additionally,the Maddy Act(Government Code Section 54970 et seq.) establishes certain noticing requirements for vacancies of City-established/appointed boards. Consistent with the aforementioned requirements, the Mayor notified staff of his selection of Steven Froberg to fill the vacant Housing Commission seat,the City Clerk properly noticed the vacancy, and staff has placed the matter on the April 7, 2015 City Council agenda. As of March 30, 2015, City staff has not received interest from any additional eligible individuals. If any such interest is received prior to April 7, 2015,that will be presented to the City Council at the meeting. Fiscal Impact There is no fiscal impact related to the Council's ratification of a successor Resident (non-City Council member)to fill the vacant Housing Commission seat. ®, V RECENED V,. tN,D MAR 2 6 2015 STAFF REPORT CITY UlUliNISTRATI0IV FIRE DEPARTMENT DATE: April 7, 2015 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council / FROM: Michael A. Wilson, Fire Chief RE: Approval to Purchase an Urban Search and Rescue Vehicle for the Fire Department Recommendation It is recommended that the City Council: A. Find that approval of the proposed purchase in this staff report is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment. B. Approve the purchase of a new Urban Search and Rescue (US&R) vehicle from Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. (PMI) in the amount of $799,609.82, and authorize the Purchasing Department to issue a purchase order to PMI to replace the current 1998 vehicle that no longer meets the needs of the department. $400,000.00 of this amount would be reimbursable through federal grant funds. Background On March 3, 2015 the City Council of the City of Vernon adopted Resolution No. 2015-11 approving participation in the 2014 Urban Area Security Initiative Grant ("2014 UASI Grant"). Thereafter, Vernon entered into an agreement with the City of Los Angeles, whereby the U.S. Department of Homeland Security granted the Vernon Fire Department $828,507.00, of which $400,000.00 was awarded for the purchase a new US&R vehicle. The Department of Homeland Security provides financial assistance, through the UASI program. The purpose of the UASI grant is to prevent, respond to, and recover from threats or acts of terrorism. This is accomplished via improved planning, equipment, and training for the needs of large urban areas. The grant performance period began on September 1, 2014. All purchases for this grant must be processed to the City of Los Angeles before May 31, 2016. The Proposed Purchase Compliance with the Municipal Code The Fire Department requests that the City Council approve the purchase of a new US&R vehicle from Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. in the amount of$799,609.82. For this purchase the City intends to piggyback onto a current contract between the DeKalb County and PMI. Piggybacking is expressly authorized by Vernon Municipal Code Section 2.17.12(A)(5) and allows Vernon to use an existing public agency contract as a template to form its own contract directly with the same vendor to purchase on same or similar terms. DeKalb County used a competitive bid process to obtain vehicle cost for PMI that is at a cost substantially lower than Vernon could obtain if it were to complete the traditional competitive bidding process itself. As such, staff requests that the City Council approve the purchase order without requiring the completion of the traditional competitive bidding process. The City of Vernon will be able to save time and resources by piggybacking onto the DeKalb County purchase order with PMI. Reason Purchase is Needed The new 2015 US&R.vehicle will replace the current vehicle that was purchased in 2000, which no longer meets the state requirements that mandates the department to carry specific equipment and lumber cashes to maintain the departments Heavy Rescue and Task Force 2 certification. The new 3 axle design of the proposed apparatus will carry an air compressor and built-in generator needed to be self-sufficient on major incidents, and allow the fire department space to place equipment in specific locations that are easier to access in an emergency. The new vehicle meets or exceeds all EPA emission standards, and is furnished with a light tower. In utilizing federal grant funds to purchase the new US&R vehicle, the city will be saving $400,000.00 and will be acquiring a vehicle that will not need to be replaced for another 15 to 20 years. Fiscal Impact The 2014 UASI Grant is 100% reimbursable and there are no cost-share or match requirements. The City of Los Angeles will reimburse the City of Vernon for all the purchased equipment up to the grant allocation of$400,000.00. The City of Vernon would be responsible for the remaining balance of$399,609.82. RECEIVED RECEIVED APR 012015 ��°� � � � MAR 2 4 2015 CITY CLERK'S OFFICE STAFF REPORT CITY ADMINISTRATION VERNON GAS & ELECTRIC DEPARTMENT DATE: April 7, 2015 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Carlos Fandino Jr., Director of Vernon Gas & Electric RE: Base Contract with CRC Marketing, Inc. for Sale and Purchase of Natural Gas (the "NAESB Contract") Recommendations It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Find that the approval requested in this staff report is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(b), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment; and 2. Authorize the Director of Gas & Electric to execute the North American Energy Standards Board ("NAESB") contract by and between the City of Vernon ("City") and CRC Marketing, Inc. ("CRC'') in substantially the same form as attached to the staff report, for the purpose of buying and selling natural gas to or from CRC, in compliance with the general terms established in the agreement. It is further recommended that the City Council find that, pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code § 2.17.12(A)(6), competitive bidding is not required because these are contracts for gas and/or electrical power for the cty's power utility, and that it would be commercially unreasonable to procure the gas or electricity through standard bidding or request for proposal procedures. Background The City of Vernon owns and operates a municipal natural gas distribution system for supplying the City's municipal electric system with natural gas and providing natural gas to businesses and industries within the City. The City desires to sell and purchase natural gas to or from CRC, under general terms and conditions published by the NAESB. The City has determined that it is f to the City's advantage, and in the public interest of the customers and residents of the City, to enter into a contract with CRC for the purchase and sale of natural gas. This agreement constitutes general terms and conditions only and does not obligate the City to enter into a specific purchase or sale transaction; however, the result of fully executing the agreement will provide the ability for the City to transact with CRC. The City has similar agreements in place with Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD), BP Energy, Shell Energy, Southern California Gas Company, EDF Trading North America, LLC, Anahau Energy, ConocoPhillips, and Iberdrola. The key objectives of the agreement with CRC are as follows: • To expand the City's counterparty pool • Create an opportunity for better pricing and liquidity • To maximize trading capability Vernon Gas & Electric staff recommends that the base NAESB Contract with CRC be approved. Attached herewith is a copy of the proposed Base Contract for Sale and Purchase of Natural Gas with CRC Marketing. Fiscal Impact The base agreement with CRC will provide Vernon flexibility to buy and sell natural gas as needs dictate, which could potentially produce a monetary benefit for the City. The exact financial impact of this agreement is unknown at this time.

NAESB Standard 6.3.1 All Rights Reserved Page 2 of 13 September 5,2006 General Terms and Conditions Base Contract for Sale and Purchase of Natural Gas SECTION 1 . PURPOSE AND PROCEDURES 1.1. These General Terms and Conditions are intended to facilitate purchase and sale transactions of Gas on a Firm or Interruptible basis. "Buyer" refers to the party receiving Gas and "Seller" refers to the party delivering Gas. The entire agreement between the parties shall be the Contract as defined in Section 2.9. The parties have selected either the"Oral Transaction Procedure" or the "Written Transaction Procedure"as indicated on the Base Contract. Oral Transaction Procedure: 1.2. The parties will use the following Transaction Confirmation procedure. Any Gas purchase and sale transaction may be effectuated in an EDI transmission or telephone conversation with the offer and acceptance constituting the agreement of the parties. The parties shall be legally bound from the time they so agree to transaction terms and may each rely thereon. Any such transaction shall be considered a "writing" and to have been "signed". Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the parties agree that Confirming Party shall, and the other party may, confirm a telephonic transaction by sending the other party a Transaction Confirmation by facsimile, EDI or mutually agreeable electronic means within three Business Days of a transaction covered by this Section 1.2 (Oral Transaction Procedure) provided that the failure to send a Transaction Confirmation shall not invalidate the oral agreement of the parties. Confirming Party adopts its confirming letterhead, or the like, as its signature on any Transaction Confirmation as the identification and authentication of Confirming Party. If the Transaction Confirmation contains any provisions other than those relating to the commercial terms of the transaction (i.e., price, quantity, performance obligation, delivery point, period of delivery and/or transportation conditions), which modify or supplement the Base Contract or General Terms and Conditions of this Contract (e.g., arbitration or additional representations and warranties), such provisions shall not be deemed to be accepted pursuant to Section 1.3 but must be expressly agreed to by both parties; provided that the foregoing shall not invalidate any transaction agreed to by the parties. Written Transaction Procedure: 1.2. The parties will use the following Transaction Confirmation procedure. Should the parties come to an agreement regarding a Gas purchase and sale transaction for a particular Delivery Period, the Confirming Party shall, and the other party may, record that agreement on a Transaction Confirmation and communicate such Transaction Confirmation by facsimile, EDI or mutually agreeable electronic means, to the other party by the close of the Business Day following the date of agreement. The parties acknowledge that their agreement will not be binding until the exchange of nonconflicting Transaction Confirmations or the passage of the Confirm Deadline without objection from the receiving party, as provided in Section 1.3. 1.3. If a sending party's Transaction Confirmation is materially different from the receiving party's understanding of the agreement referred to in Section 1.2, such receiving party shall notify the sending party via facsimile, EDI or mutually agreeable electronic means by the Confirm Deadline, unless such receiving party has previously sent a Transaction Confirmation to the sending party. The failure of the receiving party to so notify the sending party in writing by the Confirm Deadline constitutes the receiving party's agreement to the terms of the transaction described in the sending party's Transaction Confirmation. If there are any material differences between timely sent Transaction Confirmations governing the same transaction, then neither Transaction Confirmation shall be binding until or unless such differences are resolved including the use of any evidence that clearly resolves the differences in the Transaction Confirmations. In the event of a conflict among the terms of(i)a binding Transaction Confirmation pursuant to Section 1.2, (ii)the oral agreement of the parties which may be evidenced by a recorded conversation, where the parties have selected the Oral Transaction Procedure of the Base Contract, (iii)the Base Contract, and (iv)these General Terms and Conditions, the terms of the documents shall govern in the priority listed in this sentence. 1.4. The parties agree that each party may electronically record all telephone conversations with respect to this Contract between their respective employees, without any special or further notice to the other party. Each party shall obtain any necessary consent of its agents and employees to such recording. Where the parties have selected the Oral Transaction Procedure in Section 1.2 of the Base Contract,the parties agree not to contest the validity or enforceability of telephonic recordings entered into in accordance with the requirements of this Base Contract.

Find that merely submitting a letter and a possible scope of action are not final actions and do not constitute a "project" subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and that even if they were, they would be exempt from CEQA under Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment. B. Ratify and Acknowledge the Submittal of a letter to the Air Quality Management District (AQMD) recommending the suspending of The Rule Making Process for Rule 415 Odors from Rendering Operations for 180 days to review concerns Background: ound: AQMD has proposed a "Rendering Odor" rule to address a long-time complaint from residents in surrounding neighborhoods that are subject to odors from near-by businesses. Those businesses have been identified as "Rendering" which process animal carcasses and wastes from food processors, and which have been in existence for many decades. As indicated in the attached letter, some of the concerns by the Commission members and local businesses have not been adequately addressed, and need further study and discussion. Staff prepared a letter (attached) with the Commission's approval that was submitted to AQMD on April 2, 2015. 9CLG:K/LeonardS/Hea1th DeptlStaff Reports/staff Report on Rendering Odors doc f of ZI or U Ott, HEALTH&ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL DEPARTMENT Leonard Grossberg,Director/Health Officer 4305 Santa Fe Avenue,Vernon,California 90058 Telephone(323)583-8811 April 2, 2015 SCAQMD 21865 E. Copely Drive Diamond Bar, CA 91765 Attn: Mr. Tracy A. Goss, Program Supervisor Subject: Recommend Suspending The Rule Making Process for Proposed Rule 415 Odors From Rendering Operations for 180 days To Review Concerns. Dear Mr. Goss, I write on behalf of the Green Vernon Commission, which was established by the City of Vernon to address issues of sustainability and environmental responsibility, and to provide a forum for addressing public and business concerns related to environmental policies and practices. On behalf of the Green Vernon Commission, we request and recommend that the South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) suspend the rulemaking process for Proposed Rule 415 for a period of 180 days. The purpose of the suspension request is to allow additional time for the affected entities and parties to review and address concerns. We have listed the items of concerns below and have included brief example(s) for consideration: a) Construction alternatives in light of restrictions from the Planning Dept. and Fire Marshall/Fire Codes (e.g.: The Vernon Fire Marshall would object to enclosing any processing areas as it would make fighting grease/oil fires more difficult when inside an enclosure than an open area); b) The CEQA implications as a result of site upgrades and new construction requirements (e.g.: requiring rendering facilities to enclose operations might require a CEQA review if the changes proposed increase the operations foot-print); c) Consider the impact that Proposed Rule 415's enactment will have on the local economy, both inside and outside the City of Vernon, and the potential loss of jobs if the rendering facilities are forced to close (e.g.: there are potentially 800 jobs currently in rendering that would be subject to closure); d) The financial impacts to rendering and auxiliary businesses if required to make substantial changes (e.g.: where would affected businesses be allowed to operate if not in Vernon, would such E Ccfusivefy Industriaf Page 2 businesses be incentivized to leave California, and where would auxiliary businesses send animal wastes if the rendering sites were to close?); e) Alternative options to control odors (e.g.: The Vernon businesses are better equipped to offer solutions to control site specific odor issues.) f) Formulate a manner to quantify and qualify odors in a scientific fashion (e.g.: There is currently no scientific accepted practice to identify an odor or specify the intensity of given odors in order to identify the source of the odors, therefore this issue would require further examination) g) Develop a technical standard to document complaints so that they can be measured and assessed (e.g.: how will inspectors be able to identify the source of a complaint if the odor is not currently present, lag time exists between complaint and inspection, or high winds are carrying the odors over multiple sources) If so desired, we would be willing to expand and discuss each item in detail in order to provide additional justification. By conducting a review of these concerns, we believe there would be a valuable opportunity to develop beneficial comments that will contribute to a better, more effective rule. In addition, we encourage and suggest that the working relationship between AQMD, the City of Vernon, and the affected businesses be allowed to grow and expand to facilitate a resolution of odor management issues with mutual understanding of the issues and how to mitigate concerns of the public. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 323/583-8811 x 231. Sincerely, Leonard Grossberg, M.P.A., R.E.H.S.

Recommendation It is recommended that the City Council: 1) Find that the request to adopt the attached resolution proclaiming April 2015 as "Sexual Assault Awareness Month" and April 29, 2015 as "Denim Day" is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment. 2. Adopt the attached resolution proclaiming April 2015 as "Sexual Assault Awareness Month"and April 29, 2015 as "Denim Day" in the City of Vernon in support of the Peace Over Violence sexual violence education campaign. Background The United States Government has declared April as "Sexual Assault Awareness Month", and local nonprofit organization Peace Over Violence has declared April 29, 2015 "Denim Day" in Los Angeles. The Denim Day campaign protests an Italian Supreme Court decision to overturn a rape conviction because the victim wore jeans. In that decision, the justices reasoned that the victim must have helped her attacker remove her jeans, implying consent. The campaign draws attention to the fact that rape and sexual assault remains a serious issue in our society. The Denim Day campaign encourages community members, elected officials, businesses and students to make a social statement with their fashion statement by wearing jeans on April 29th as a visible means of protest against misconceptions surrounding sexual assault. As in recent years, Peace Over Violence has once again requested local cities to adopt resolutions in support of this campaign. Budizet Impact: This activity can be carried out without additional impact on the current operating budget. vwl� . i � 4 �F � f X RESOLUTION NO.

Rigg, Public Works & Water Superintendent APPROVED BY: Samuel Kevin Wilson, Director of Public Works, Water and Development Services RE: Bid Award for Contract No. CS-0533 Recommendation It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Find that the proposed Rehabilitation of Production Well No. 16, attached hereto, is exempt under the California Environmental Quality ACT (CEQA) in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, subsections (b) and (d), because the project involves negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency's determination; and 2. Accept the bid from General Pump Company, Inc., as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and enter into a contract, not to exceed $151,180.00, for the Rehabilitation of Production Well No. 16. General Pump Company, Inc. was the only bid received in response to the solicitation for bids. Background Production Well No. 16 (well), located at 4305 Santa Fe Avenue, in Vernon, CA, had its drive motor and pump unit replaced in 2014 due to a decrease in its production capacity. Upon completion of the motor and pump unit installation, the well was test pumped to quantify the production capacity in terms gallons per minute (gpm). Subsequent testing found that the well could produce no more than 700 gpm as a result of plugged perforations in the well-shaft. The well should ideally produce between 1200 and 1400 gpm. In order to clear the plugged perforations, the subject well will have to be rehabilitated using a vast array of chemicals and mechanical equipment. On February 3, 2015, the City Council authorized the advertisement of the Notice Inviting Sealed Competitive Bids for the Rehabilitation of Production Well No. 16. The Notice Inviting Bids were posted on the City's website and published in the Vernon Sun newspaper. In addition, the Notice Inviting Bids was advertised in the following construction related websites: Bid America, Construction Bidboard, McGraw Hill Construction Dodge, and Reid Construction. The specifications included the standard terms and conditions for the contract. On February 17, 2015, a pre-bid meeting was held to review the project specifications in detail. Two contractors were present for the pre-bid meeting: General Pump Company, Inc. and Best Drilling and Pump, Inc. The single bid for Contract No. CS-0533, for the Rehabilitation of Production Well No. 16, was received and opened on March 12, 2015. General Pump Company, Inc. submitted a bid in the amount of$151,180.00. Fiscal Impact The total project cost will be $151,180.00.

The Contractor and Subcontractors of any tier shall be governed by and required to comply with these statutes and regulations in connection with the Project. Pursuant to Labor Code§1771,the Contractor and all Subcontractors of any tier must pay not less than the prevailing wage rates to all workers employed in execution of the Contract. Contractor and Subcontractors must comply with applicable statutes and regulations, including but not limited to Labor Code §§ 1771, 1775, 1777.5, 1813 and 1815. 2. Weekly Payments to Employees-Contractor and all Subcontractors of any tier must pay each worker on the Project, unconditionally and not less often than once each week, the full amounts that are due and payable for the period covered by the particular payday in accordance with the prevailing wage scale determination, regardless of any contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist between the Contractor, Subcontractor and such laborers. Thus, an employer must establish a fixed workweek and an established payday. On each payday, each worker must receive all sums due at the end of the preceding workweek and must be provided with an itemized wage statement. 3. Classifications - City shall require that any class of laborers or mechanics, including apprentices and trainees,which are not listed in the General Wage Determinations and which are to be employed under this Contract, shall be classified conformably to such wage determinations. In the event the City does not concur in the Contractor's proposed classification or reclassification of a particular class of laborers and mechanics (including apprentices and trainees) to be used, the question, accompanied by the recommendation of the City's Project Representative, shall be referred to the State Director of Industrial Relations for determination. 4. Fringe Benefit Cash Equivalent- City shall require, whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed for a class of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly wage and the Contractor is obligated to pay a cash equivalent of such a fringe benefit, an hourly cash equivalent thereof must be established. In the event the interested parties cannot agree upon cash equivalent of the fringe benefit, the questions, accompanied by the recommendation of the City's Project Representative, shall be referred to the State Director of Industrial Relations for determination. C. Penalty for Prevailing Wage Rate Underpayment Pursuant to Labor Code §1775, the Contractor must, as a penalty, forfeit Fifty Dollars($50.00)to the City for each calendar day or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rates as determined by the Director of the Department of Industrial Relations for such work or craft in which sLich worker is employed for the WorTc by the Contractor or by any Subcontractor, of any tier, in connection with the Work. The difference between ATTACHMENT TO PART I-PW REV.103113 prevailing wage rates and the amount paid to each worker each calendar day, or portion thereof, for which each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rate, must be paid to each worker by the Contractor. D. Withholding The City shall upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor or DIR, withhold or cause to be withheld from the Contractor under this Contract so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices, trainees, and helpers, employed by the Contractor or any Subcontractor the full amount of wages required by the Contract. In the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice, trainee, or helper, employed or working on the site of the Work, all or part of the wages required by the Contract, the City may, after written notice to the Contractor, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased. E. Certified Payroll Records and Basic Payroll Records The Contractor and Subcontractors of any tier must maintain Certified Payroll Records and"Basic Payroll Records", defined as time cards, front and back copies of canceled checks, cash receipts, trust fund forms, daily logs, employee sign-in sheets, accounting ledgers, tax forms and/or any other record maintained for the purposes of reporting payroll, during the course of the Work and must preserve them for a period of three (3) years after completion of the Project for all trades workers executing the Work of the Contract. Certified Payroll Records must be submitted at the times designated in Paragraph F below or upon request as described in Paragraph G below. City reserves the right to require Contractor to routinely submit Basic Payroll Records may be requested by the City at any time and must be provided within ten (10) calendar days following the receipt of the request. F. Submittal of Certified Payroll Records Pursuant to Labor Code§1776,the Contractor and each Subcontractor of any tier must maintain an accurate,weekly payroll record showing the employee full name, address,social security number,work classification,amount paid per hour, straight time,overtime and holiday hours worked each day and weekly totals,the actual per diem wages paid to each person employed for the Work, and the gross/net wages paid for this Project/all projects, as well as the Contractor name and address, Project name and location, and dates of payroll. If payments are made to any third party trust,funds or plans for health and welfare, pension or vacation trusts,those payments must be stated on the Certified Payroll Record. The basic wage rate paid per hour plus the employer contributions for benefits, including training fund contributions, must at least equal the prevailing wage rate for that classification. The Contractor must maintain and submit its Certified Payroll Records and those of its Subcontractors. City reserves the right to require Contractor to submit to the City each week, no later than seven (7) calendar days after the payday for the week covered, the Certified Payroll Records of Contractor and its Subcontractors of every tier. If there is no Work on a given week or on a given day, the Certified Payroll Record must indicate"no work"for that week or day(s). The Certified Payroll Records must account for each day of the week including Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. Contractor and Subcontractors of every tier must write"final"on the last submitted Certified Payroll Record for the Project. The Certified Payroll Records must be verified by a written declaration made by a person with authority to represent the reporting entity, under penalty of perjury,that the information contained in the payroll record is true and correct and that the reporting entity has complied with the requirements of California Labor Code§§1771, 1811,and 1815 for any Work performed by his, her or its employees on the Project. Contractor agrees that submission of Certified Payroll Records as well as all related or subsequent requests for supporting document made by City shall be a condition precedent to Contractor's receipt of a progress, final, or retention payment. The City shall withhold any portion of the progress, final, or retention payment up to and including the entire payment until the Certified Payroll Records requirement is met by the Contractor or its Subcontractor. If the Contractor or any Subcontractor is determined to have failed to pay workers in compliance with the applicable prevailing wage sections of the Labor Code,the City shall continue to withhold progress,final,or retention payments until sufficient funds have been withheld for payment of wages to workers and all applicable penalties. G. Making Certified Payroll Records Available Upon Request Pursuant to Labor Code§1776, in addition to its obligation to deliver certified payroll records to the City on a weekly basis as set forth above, the Contractor must also make payroll records available for inspection at all reasonable hours at the principal office of the Contractor on the following basis: (i) a certified copy of an employee's payroll record must be made available for inspection or furnished to such employee or his/her authorized representative on request; (ii)a certified copy of all payroll records must be made available for inspection or furnished upon request to ATTACHMENT TO PART I-Pw REV. 103113 the City, the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement and the Division of Apprenticeship Standards of the Department of Industrial Relations; (iii)a certified copy of payroll records must be made available upon request to the public for inspection or copies thereof made; provided, however, that a request by the public must be made through either the City,the Division of Apprenticeship Standards,or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement. If the requested payroll records have not been previously provided to the City, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, the requesting party must, prior to being provided the records, reimburse the cost of preparation by the Contractor, Subcontractors and the entity through which the request was made; and the public may not be given access to such records at the principal office of the Contractor; (iv)the Contractor must file a certified copy of the payroll records with the entity that requested such records within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of a written request; (v) any copy of records made available for inspection as copies and furnished upon request to the public or any public agency by the City, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement shall be marked or obliterated in such a manner as to prevent disclosure of an individual's name, address and social security number. The name and address of the Contractor or any Subcontractor,of any tier, performing a part of the Work must not be marked or obliterated. The Contractor must inform the City of the location of payroll records, including the street address,City and county and must, within five (5) working days, provide a notice of a change or location and address. H. Forfeiture for Failure to Comply with Written Record Request Laws The Contractor or Subcontractor shall have ten (10) calendar days in which to comply, subsequent to receipt of written request regarding Certified Payroll Records or Basic Payroll Records. In the event Contractor or a Subcontractor fails to strictly comply after such 10-day period,the Contractor or Subcontractor shall,as a penalty to the City, forfeit Twenty-Five Dollars($25.00) for each calendar day,or portion thereof, for each worker, until strict compliance is effectuated. Upon the request of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, these penalties shall be withheld from any portion of the Contract Price then or thereafter due the Contractor. A Contractor is not subject to a penalty assessment pursuant to this paragraph due to the failure of a Subcontractor to comply with this section. I. Hours of Work 1. Limits on Hours of Work - Pursuant to Labor Code §1810, eight(8) hours of labor shall constitute a legal day's work. Pursuant to Labor Code§1811, the time of service of any worker employed at any time by the Contractor or by a Subcontractor, of any tier, upon the Work or upon any part of the Work, is limited and restricted to eight(8) hours during any one calendar day and forty(40) hours during any one calendar week, except as hereafter provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Work performed by employees of Contractor or any Subcontractor,of any tier, in excess of eight(8) hours per day and forty(40)hours during any one week, shall be permitted upon compensation for all hours worked in excess of eight(8) hours per day at not less than one and one-half(11/2) times the basic rate of pay. 2. Penalty for Excess Hours-Pursuant to Labor Code§§1813 and 1815, the Contractor shall pay to the City a penalty of Twenty-five Dollars($25.00)for each worker employed in the execution of the Contract by the Contractor or any Subcontractor, of any tier, for each calendar day during which such worker is required or permitted to work more than eight (8) hours in any calendar day and forty (40) hours in any one calendar week, in violation of the provisions of the California Labor Code, unless compensation to the worker so employed by the Contractor is not less than one and one-half(11/2)times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of eight(8) hours per day. 3. Contractor Responsibility For Cost of Excess Hours-Any Work performed by workers necessary to be performed after regular working hours or on Sundays or other holidays must be performed without adjustment to the Contract Price or any other additional expense to the City. J. Responsibility for Subcontractors' Payment of Prevailing Wages Pursuant to Labor Code§1774, the Contractor is responsible for ensuring that all Subcontractors of any tier comply with requirements for payment of prevailing wages. Contractor is responsible for Labor Code violations by Subcontractors of any tier. The agreement executed between the Contractor and each Subcontractor must contain a copy of the provisions of Labor Code §§ 1771, 1775, 1777.5, 1813 and 1815, at a minimum. Contractor must monitor each Subcontractor's payment of prevailing wage rates. Upon becoming aware of the failure of any Subcontractor of any tier to pay its workers the specified prevailing wage,the Contractor must diligently take action to halt and rectify the failure, including, without limitation, retaining sufficient funds due to the Subcontractor to cover the underpayment. Before making final payment to any Subcontractor,the Contractor must obtain an affidavit from the Subcontractor, signed under penalty of perjury,which states that the Subcontractor has paid the specified, determined prevailing wage rate to its employees for the Project, as well as any amounts due pursuant to Labor ATTACHMENT TO PART I-PW REV. 103113 Code §1813. Contractor must provide copies of such affidavits to the City and provide Contractor's affidavit that it has paid the specified,determined prevailing wage rate to its employees for the Project,as well as any amounts due under Labor Code §1813. K. Statement of Employer Payments Within five (5) calendar days of signing the Contract or Subcontract, as applicable, the Statement of Employer Payments(DSLE Form PW 26) must be completed and submitted to the City by each Contractor and Subcontractor who pays benefits to a third party trust, plan or fund for health and welfare benefits, vacation funds or makes pension contributions. The form must contain, for each worker classification, the fund or trust name, address, administrator, and amount per hour contributed and frequency of contributions. Training fund contributions must also be reported on this form. In February and August of each year during the Project, the Contractor and Subcontractors of any tier must verify changes in wage rates for any trade classifications used on the Project. Thereafter,Contractor and its Subcontractors must submit a new Statement of Employer Payments to the City which reflects any changes in wages and benefits. L. Apprentices 1. Apprenticeship Committee Contract Award Information-Pursuant to Labor Code§1777.5 and Title 8 California Code of Regulations §230, Contractor and Subcontractors of any tier who are not already approved to train by an apprenticeship program sponsor must,within ten(10)calendar days of signing the Contract or Subcontract, as applicable, but in any event prior to the first day in which the Contractor or Subcontractor has workers employed on the Project, submit contract award information. This information may be a Public Works Contract Award Information form (DAS form 140). The contract award information must be provided to the appropriate local apprenticeship committees whose geographic area of operation include the area of the Project and can supply apprentices to the Project. Contractor and Subcontractors must also submit a copy of the form to the City which must include, in addition to other information, an estimate of journeymen hours to be performed under the Contract or Subcontract, the number of apprentices to be employed, and the approximate dates the apprentices will be employed. Failure to provide contract award information,which is known by the Contractor or Subcontractor,shall be deemed to be a continuing violation for the duration of the Contract. 2. Employment of Apprentices - Labor Code §1777.5 and Title 8 California Code of Regulations §§200 et seq. provide detailed requirements for employing apprentices on public works. The responsibility of complying with Section 1777.5 and the regulations lies exclusively with the Contractor. When the Contractor of Subcontractor employs workers in any Apprenticeable Craft or Trade, the Contractor and Subcontractor must employ apprentices in at least the ratio set forth in Labor Code Section 1777.5. Every apprentice employed to perform any of the Work must be paid the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which such apprentice is registered, and such individual must be employed only for the work of the craft or trade to which such individual is registered. Only apprentices,as defined in California Labor Code§3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards and written apprenticeship agreements under California Labor Code§§3070 et seq.are eligible to be employed for the Work. The employment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with either of the following: (1)The apprenticeship standards and apprentice agreements under which such apprentice is training; or (2)The rules and regulations of the California Apprenticeship Council, including regulation Section 230.1 (c), which requires that apprentices employed on public projects can only be assigned to perform work of the craft or trade to which the apprentice is registered and that the apprentices must at all times work with or under the direct supervision of journeyman/men. 3. Apprenticeship Certificate and Request for Dispatch of Apprentices a. When the Contractor or any Subcontractor of any tier in performing any of the Work employs workers in any Apprenticeable Craft or Trade,as defined in Paragraph L(4),the Contractor and such Subcontractor may apply to the Joint Apprenticeship Committee administering the apprenticeship standards of the craft or trade in the area of the site of the Work for a certificate approving the Contractor or such Subcontractor under the apprenticeship standards for the employment and training of apprentices in the area or industry affected, provided, however, that the approval as established by the Joint Apprenticeship Committee or Committees shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship. The Joint Apprenticeship Committee or Committees, subsequent to approving the Contractor or Subcontractor, shall arrange for the dispatch of apprentices to the Contractor or such ATTACHMENT TO PART I-PW REV. 103113 Subcontractor in order to comply with California Labor Code §1777.5. There shall be an affirmative duty upon the Joint Apprenticeship Committee or Committees, administering the apprenticeship standards of the crafts or trades in the area of the site of the Work, to ensure equal employment and affirmative action and apprenticeship for women and minorities. Contractors or Subcontractors shall not be required to submit individual applications for approval to local Joint Apprenticeship Committees provided they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards. b. Contractors who are not already approved to train apprentices must request dispatch of required apprentices from one of the applicable Apprentices Committees whose geographic area of operation includes the site of the Project by giving the committee actual notice of at least forty-eight(48) hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the date on which one or more apprentices are required. Contractors and Subcontractors may use DAS form 142 to make the request for apprentices. However, if a non-signatory contractor declines to abide by and comply with the terms of a local committee's standards,the Apprenticeship Committee shall not be required to dispatch apprentices to such contractor. Conversely, if in response to a written request,an Apprenticeship Committee does not dispatch any apprentice to a contractor who has agreed to employ and train apprentices in accordance with either the Apprenticeship Committee's Standards or the California Apprenticeship Counsel Regulations(Title 8, Section 230 etseq.)within 72 hours of such request(excluding Saturdays,Sundays and holidays)the contractor shall not be considered in violation of Section 230.1 as a result of failure to employ apprentices for the remainder of the Project, provided the contractor has made the request in enough time to meet the required ratio. If an Apprenticeship Committee dispatches fewer apprentices than the Contractor or Subcontractor requested,the Contractor or Subcontractor shall be considered in compliance if the contractor employs those apprentices who are dispatched,provided that,where there is more than one Apprenticeship Committee able and willing to unconditionally dispatch apprentices, a Contractor or Subcontractor who is not a participant in an apprenticeship program has requested dispatch from at least two committees. 4. Ratio of Apprentices to Journeymen a.The ratio of Work performed by apprentices to journeymen, who shall be employed in the Work, may be the ratio stipulated in the apprenticeship standards under which the Joint Apprenticeship Committee operates, but in no case shall the ratio be less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by a journeyman, except as otherwise provided in California Labor Code§1777.5. The ratio of apprentice work to journeyman work shall apply during any day or portion of a day when any journeyman is employed at the site of the Work and shall be computed on the basis of the hours worked during the day by journeymen so employed. Any Work performed by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or 40 hours per week shall not be used to calculate the ratio. The Contractor must employ apprentices for the number of hours computed as above before the end of the Contract or subcontract, as applicable. The Contractor must, however, endeavor, to the greatest extent possible, to employ apprentices during the same time period that the journeymen in the same craft or trade are employed at the site of the Work. Where an hourly apprenticeship ratio is not feasible for a particular craft or trade, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards, upon application of a Joint Apprenticeship Committee, may order a minimum ratio of not less than one apprentice for each five journeymen in a craft or trade classification. b.The Contractor or any Subcontractor covered by this Paragraph and California Labor Code§1777.5,that has agreed to be covered by an Apprenticeship Program's standards, upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or that has been previously approved in such craft or trade, must employ the number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to journeymen stipulated in the apprenticeship standards,but in no event less than the 1-to-5 hourly ratio. Upon proper showing by the Contractor that it employs apprentices in such craft or trade in the State of California on all of its contracts on an annual average of not less than one apprentice to each five journeymen, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards may grant a certificate exempting the Contractor from the 1-to-5 hourly ratio as set forth in this Paragraph and California Labor Code §1777.5. S. Exemption-The requirement to employ apprentices shall not apply to contracts of general contractors,or to contracts of specialty contractors not bidding for work through a general or prime contractor, involving less than Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000.00) or twenty (20) Working Days. The term "Apprenticeable Craft or Trade,"as used herein shall mean a craft or trade determined as an Apprenticeable occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the Apprenticeship Council. ATTACHMENT TO PART I-PW REV, 103113 6. Contributions to Trust Funds-The Contractor or any Subcontractor of any tier who performs any of the Work by employment of journeymen or apprentices in any Apprenticeable Craft or Trade shall contribute to the California Apprenticeship Council in the same amount that the Director determines is the prevailing amount of apprenticeship training contributions in the area of the Project. Contractor or any Subcontractor, of any tier, may take as a credit for payments to the Council any amounts paid by the Contractor or Subcontractor to an approved apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the Project. Contractors who do not contribute to an apprenticeship program must submit their contributions to the California Apprenticeship Council. Training Fund contributions are due and payable on the 15th day of the month for work performed during the preceding month. Training contributions to the California Apprenticeship Council shall be paid by check and shall be accompanied by a Completed Training Fund Contribution form (CAC-2). Contractors who contribute to an apprenticeship program are entitled to a full credit in the amount of those contributions. The Division of Labor Standards Enforcement is authorized to enforce the payment of such contributions to such fund(s)as set forth in California Labor Code§ 227. Such contributions shall not result in an increase in the Contract Price. 7. Contractor's Compliance - The responsibility of compliance with this Paragraph for all Apprenticeable Trades or Crafts is solely and exclusively that of the Contractor. All decisions of the Joint Apprenticeship Committee(s) under this Paragraph are subject to the provisions of California tabor Code §3081. In the event the Contractor willfully fails to comply with the provisions of this Paragraph and California Labor Code §1777.5, pursuant to California Labor Code§1777.7, the Contractor shall: (i) be denied the right to bid on any public works contract for a period of one(1)year from the date the determination of non-compliance is made by the Administrator of Apprenticeship; and (ii) forfeit, as a civil penalty, One Hundred Dollars ($100.00)for each calendar day of noncompliance. Notwithstanding the provisions of California Labor Code §1727,upon receipt of such determination,the City shall withhold such amount from the Contract Price then due or to become due. Any such determination shall be issued after a full investigation,a fair and impartial hearing, and reasonable notice thereof in accordance with reasonable rules and procedures prescribed by the California Apprenticeship Council. Any funds withheld by the City pursuant to this Paragraph shall be deposited in the General Fund or other similar fund of the City. The Interpretation and enforcement of California Labor Code §§1777.5 and 1777.7 shall be in accordance with the rules and procedures of the California Apprenticeship Council.

R!FCEIVED APR 02 2015 STAFF REPORT CITY CLERK'S OFFICE CITY ADMINISTRATION DATE: April 7,2015 TO: Honorable City Council M WIFROM: Mark C.Whitworth, City Administrator RE: Vernon Housing Commission Recommendations to Sell City-Owned Housing Units in Huntington Park and Remodel Seven City-Owned Vernon Units to Level of Remodel Projects Performed in 2007/2008 Recommendations Staff recommends the City Council: A. Find that the actions recommended in this staff report are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment. The Vernon Housing Commission recommends the City Council: B. Sell the five City-owned housing units in Huntington Park at fair market value based upon professional appraisals. C. Direct City staff to, as quickly as possible, facilitate the remodel of the seven City-owned housing units in Vernon that were not remodeled as part of the 2007/2008 remodel of all other City-owned housing units in Vernon to the standard utilized in 2007/2008. Bachround At its meeting on March 11, 2015,the Vernon Housing Commission("Commission")held discussions regarding the potential sale of City-owned housing units in Huntington Park and the potential remodel of the seven City-owned housing units in Vernon that were not remodeled as part of the 2007/2008 remodel of all other City-owned units in Vernon. Below is a brief summary of each discussion. Additionally,the corresponding staff reports submitted to the Commission to aid each of its discussions is attached hereto for reference. Sale of Huntington Park Units (Exhibit A —March 11, 2015 Commission Staff Report re Potential Commission Recommendation to City Council Regarding the Divestment of City of Vernon-Owned Housing Units Located in Huntington Park) As the City Council may recall,the Commission previously recommended on several occasions that the Council sell the five Huntington Park units in order to provide much needed revenue during difficult economic times. At the Commission meeting, City staff presented updated information on the five Huntington Park units (see Summary Information on Huntington Park Housing Units table included in Exhibit A) and several other areas of consideration related to any potential sale. After review and discussion of the information presented by City staff,the Commission did not see any public purpose served by the City continuing to own and rent the Huntington Park units. In light of improved market conditions, the Commission believes that this would be an appropriate time for the City to sell the Huntington Park units. The City Council last discussed and considered the Commission's recommendation to sell the Huntington Park units in light of the City's then current fiscal situation on August 7, 2012, and determined it was still not in the City's best interest to sell the Huntington Park units at that time for the reasons outlined Exhibit A. The Council did at that time indicate its willingness to revisit the possibility of selling the Huntington Park units in a few years or once market conditions improved significantly. Remodel of Seven Vernon Units (Exhibit B—March 11, 2015 Commission Staff Report re Summary of Annual Maintenance Inspection Results and Update on Development of a Proposed Capital Improvement Plan for City of Vernon-Owned Housing Units) At the Commission meeting, City staff described the extensive remodel work that was performed on 19 of the 26 Vernon units in 2007/2008, and explained that the plan had been to complete the work for all 26 units over several phases, but that the final phase for the 7 remaining units was put on hold when the economic recession hit in 2008. City staff presented several alternative approaches for the Commission to consider regarding the potential remodel of the seven remaining Vernon units (see pages 2-3 of Exhibit B). In line with all of the reforms enacted in relation to City housing policies, procedures, and practices, and the overriding goal of establishing a fair, uniform, and equitable standard for all City tenants in all City housing matters,the Commission believes the City Council should prioritize the remodel of the seven remaining units and allocate funds accordingly. The Commission recommends that City staff be directed to move as quickly as possible to effectuate the remodel of all seven remaining units. Fiscal Impact Based on the Zillow sale estimates for the five City-owned housing units in Huntington Park as of March 2015, it is estimated that the sale of all five units could generate between $1,813,000 to 2,082,000 in total one-time revenue. Based on the costs of the 2007/2008 remodel project, it is estimated that the total cost to remodel all seven remaining City-owned housing units in Vernon would be approximately $700,000 ($100,000 per unit). The proceeds of the sale of any or all of the five Huntington Park units could be utilized to fund any portion or all of the remodel costs of the seven Vernon units.

Find that the discussion and potential action(s) contemplated in this staff report are exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment. 2. Hold a discussion regarding the extent to which City ownership of housing units located in Huntington Park continues to provide public benefits that are sufficiently adequate to merit retaining ownership or whether the public interest would be better served by the City divesting its ownership in said units. 3. Provide direction to staff regarding any recommendations to be submitted to the City Council regarding the potential divestment of City-owned housing units in Huntington Park. If divestment is recommended, the Commission should also develop and recommend a specific sales program or plan, and a proposed use of sales proceeds. Background As the Commission is well aware, extensive and numerous discussions have been held by both the Commission and the City Council regarding the potential divestment of City-owned housing units located in Huntington Park, and the Commission has repeatedly urged the City Council to sell said units. At the December 10, 2014 Commission meeting,the Chair requested that this matter be placed on the March 11, 2015 Commission agenda. Although not specifically directed to do so, staff took the initiative of compiling some relevant data in order to help facilitate a productive discussion. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a table outlining pertinent sale related data for each of the five City-owned units located in Huntington Park. Attached hereto as Exhibit B is the December 11, 2013 staff report to the Commission providing the City Council's last determination(July 2, 2013)to not divest the vacant City-owned housing units located in Huntington Park. Importantly,the staff report indicates the City Council's openness to revisiting the possibility of divesting the Huntington Park units in a few years or once market conditions significantly improve. Potential Sales Pro ram Considerations/Issues 1. Does the original reason for or benefit of acquiring the HP units in the first instance still exist? 2. What is the relationship of the HP units to the proposed capital improvement plan(s)? a. Is there a need/benefit of retaining one or more HP units during the period in which improvements are being made to other Vernon housing units? b. Does the City need/want the proceeds from the sale of one or more HP units to fund the capital improvement plan? 3. if a decision is made to sell the units, should units be sold as they become vacant,upon expiration of the respective lease,or on some otherwise determined schedule? 4. Section 50 of the current form Residential Lease provides as follows: Priority Right to Purchase Housing Units for Tenants Who First Leased a Housing Unit on or before July 7,2011: If Tenant first leased and occupied the Premises on or before July 7, 2011,regardless of the effective date of this Lease, and if the Premises is offered for sale,Tenant shall have a priority right to purchase the Premises, subject, however,to the California Attorney General approving of this grant of a priority right. If the California Attorney General does not approve of the granting of this priority right,no such priority right shall exist. Currently,the aforementioned provision would apply to only one of the five tenants. Another of the five tenants is under the former five-year form Residential Lease through September 2015; said lease does not contain the aforementioned provision, but the tenant first leased the unit in October 2010. If this right were exercisable, an exercise price will have to be determined, either based on a fair market value appraisal,or a right of first refusal to match any bona fide offer to buy. Fiscal Impact As indicated in Exhibit A, it is estimated that the sale of each unit could potentially generate between $275,000 and$455,000,depending on the particular unit. if all five units were sold at or very close to the Zillow fair market value estimate,the proceeds would total approximately $1.9 million. The City currently receives approximately $67,000 in rent from these units annually and expends approximately$23,418 in fixed costs(possessory interest tax and home owner's association dues), plus costs related to routine repair and maintenance. One unit is at step three of the four-step market rent implementation schedule,another is a five-year lease set to go to full market rent in October 2015, and the other three are at full market rent. Full market rent refers to the rates established by the Commission through the market rent implementation schedule.

Whitworth,Commission Director RE: City Council Determination on Commission Recommendation to Reconsider Divestment of Huntington Park Units It is recommended that the Housing Commission receive and file this staff report transmitting the City Council's determination to not divest the City-owned units in Huntington Park. At the June 12,2013 Housing Commission meeting,the Commission voted unanimously(6-0)to recommend that the City Council again reconsider the divestment of the City-owned housing units in Huntington Park. At the July 2, 2013 City Council meeting,the Council voted 4-1 to not divest the vacant City- owned units in Huntington Park. Most of the Council members opined that the original rental rates for said units were set too high and thought that the reduced rental rates more recently approved by the Commission would facilitate the leasing of the units. One of the Council members recommended that the potential divestment of the Huntington Park units be revisited in a few years. As part of the Commission's June 12, 2013 vote,the City's third party property manager, Solari Enterprises, Inc.,was directed to continue efforts to lease the vacant Huntington Park units at the reduced rental rates, if the City Council decided to continue ownership of the units. Prior Discussions and Votes On January 12,2012,the Housing Commission held a discussion regarding the advantages and disadvantages of divesting the City-owned housing units in Huntington Park,and directed staff to obtain three independent sale appraisals of the vacant and month-to-month units. On February 6, 2012, upon review of the results of the independent sale appraisals listed below, the Commission voted to recommend to the City Council that the Huntington Park units be sold. Unit Appraiser 1 Appraiser 2 Appraiser 3 2915 E. 60 Place#S $135,000 $170,000 $155,000 6036 Stafford Avenue $265,000 $275,000 _ $;265,000 6044 Stafford Avenue $265,000 $275,000 j $265,000 __ On February 21,2012,the Commission's recommendation was presented to the City Council at its regular meeting. The City Council discussed the recommendation, but took no action at that time. At its May 10,2012 meeting,the Housing Commission directed staff to take the original Huntington Park divestment recommendation back to the City Council and seek action and/or an official response. At the May 15,2012 City Council meeting,the Commission's divestment recommendation was presented to the City Council. Further discussion was held and the City Council voted to not sell the Huntington Park units at this time due to market conditions, and recommended the Housing Commission lease any vacant units at market rates. Upon learning of the City Council's decision at the June 14,2012 Housing Commission meeting, the Commission requested that the matter be slated on the July 18, 2012 Housing Commission agenda for further discussion. As a result of the July 18, 2012 discussion,the Commission voted to re-submit its recommendation to the City Council to divest the City's ownership of the Huntington Park homes in light of the City's current fiscal situation. On August 7, 2012,the City Council discussed the recommendation that was re-submitted in light of the City's current fiscal situation and determined that it was still not in the City's best interest to sell the Huntington Park units at this time for the following reasons: ■ Due to current market conditions,the City would be selling the units at far less than it paid for them. ■ The units carry little to no debt;there is no property tax,minimal maintenance and repair costs, and very low HOA fees on the condos. ■ Once all five units are leasing at market rents($1,700 for the three single family homes and$1,511 and$1,450 for the two condos),the rental income for the units will total over $8,000 monthly and close to $100,000 annually. Currently,the total rental income would be just over$4,700 monthly and over$56,000 annually. ■ The sale would yield only a one-time payout that would not contribute to any long-term solutions to the City's fiscal situation. The City Council remains open to revisiting the possibility of divesting the Huntington Park units in a few years or once market conditions significantly improve. Exhibit B March 115 2015 Housing Commission Staff Report — Summary of Annual Maintenance Inspection Results and Update on Development of a Proposed Capital Improvement Plan for City of Vernon-Owned Housing Units RECEIVED RE MAR 0 5 2015 • , CITY ADMINISTRATION *F MAR { `° CITY CLti'M 0 STAFF REPORT PUBLIC WORKS, WATER& DEVELOPMENT SER DATE: March 11,2015 TO: Honorable Vernon Housing Commission BY: Samuel Kevin Wilsg%i ctor of Public Works W ate-and Development Services RE: Summary of Annual Maintenance Inspection Results and Update on Development of a Proposed Capital Improvement Plan for City of Vernon-Owned Housing Units Recommendations: It is recommended that the Housing Commission: 1) Find that the actions proposed in this staff report are exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3),the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment. 2) Receive and file a summary report of annual maintenance inspection results for City of Vernon-owned housing units (Exhibit A). 3) Authorize the development of a two-part Capital Improvement Plan for City-owned housing units and provide direction to City staff regarding particular provisions of said plan. Annual Maintenance Ins ction Results(Exhibit A In February of this year,City staff conducted the annual inspection of each housing unit and prepared a comprehensive list of items that needed repair or replacement. Most of the units found to be in good condition needing only minor repairs. Additionally,the seven non-remodeled homes(more on this in the next section)do not have an automatic landscape irrigation system and, therefore,require hand watering of the landscape. Because of this,many of these homes' landscaping is in an unacceptable condition. Attached as Exhibit"A"is a summary list of necessary repairs identified during the individual unit inspections,including those that are tenant responsibilities under the Residential Lease. Letters will be issued to each tenant identifying the repair work that he/she is required to perform,and providing an appropriate timeline for completion and re-inspection. All repair work that the Landlord is required to perform can be handled by City maintenance crews over the next several months at minimal costs for supplies. It should be noted that the interior of ten of the Vernon residences have not yet been inspected due to scheduling issues with the respective tenants,nor have the five Huntington Park units. Staff is working to complete all of these inspections by March 11,2015. Proposed Two-Part Cs ital Improvement Plan BackWund The City owns twenty six housing units within the City of Vernon and five housing units within the City of Huntington Park. The Vernon units consist of an 8-unit apartment complex on 5e Street and 18 single family homes: six on Fruitland Avenue,ten on Furlong Place and two on Vernon Avenue. The Vernon units were constructed between 1940 and 1960. The Huntington Park units consist of two condominiums and three single family homes,all built in 1980's. In 2007 and 2008, the City retained multiple contractors to completely remodel 11 of the Vernon single family units and all 8 of the Vernon apartment units. Attached herewith is Exhibit"B",which is the renovation schedule,and Exhibit"C",which is a typical scope of work that the remodels included. Seven Vernon units remain in their original condition,other than repair work that has taken place over the years in order to prepare the units for new occupancy.The seven remaining units are identified in Exhibit'D". All seven units are currently occupied. City staff is in the process of developing a capital improvement plan. It is proposed that the plan consist of two distinct implementation plans. First would be the renovation of the seven remaining Vernon housing units that were not remodeled as part of the 2007/08 renovations. Second would be the continued upkeep and major maintenance of all City owned units. Renovation of Seven Remaining Units The Vernon units that were not renovated remain in relatively good repair. However,it is recommended that all units within the City be of a consistent standard. Proposed modifications are outlined in the scope of work contained in Exhibit"C". Some of the work outlined has already been performed,including the installation of HVAC systems and the reroofing of certain units.. It is staffs proposal to renovate one home each fiscal year. This could potentially be accelerated if the Huntington Park units were to be sold and some of the proceeds from those sales were used for the renovation of the Vernon units. It is anticipated that the remodel work would cost approximately $100,000 for each unit. Competitive bidding would be required for the work in accordance with the City's purchasing ordinance. Staff is seeking the Commission's direction regarding the order of unit renovations and potential temporary relocation during renovations. Staff offers the following alternative approaches for the Commission to consider: 1. Renovate each unit as it becomes vacant. One pro to this option would be the lack of need for temporary relocation during the renovation. One con would be the inability to specifically plan and budget for such renovations. Another con is that the entire renovation project could take longer than the maximum seven-year timeline proposed. 2. Renovate each unit as it becomes vacant,but no later than [date to be specified by Commission]. This is a modified version of option 1 to provide an opportunity to take advantage of the identified pro, but mitigate against the potential cons. 3. Establish a set of objective criteria to determine the level of disrepair of each unit and prioritize the renovation schedule accordingly. 4. Conduct a random lottery selection of the seven non-renovated units to establish the order of unit renovations. 5. Retain one vacant renovated or Huntington Park unit to temporarily relocate tenants in non-renovated units to during renovations until all seven units have been renovated. One advantage to this approach is that once such a unit becomes or is made vacant, the Commission could rely on this unit during the entire renovation process. One disadvantage is that only one unit could be renovated at a time, even if additional funding became available through the sale of Huntington Park units to accelerate the renovation schedule. 6. Follow the recently adopted Procedures Regarding Temporary Relocation of Leasees and Authorized Occupants for authorized, long-term relocation, which, in this case, would probably involve leasing a comparable unit from the open market. Lang Term Maintenance of All Units A capital plan for long term maintenance of the City-owned housing stock should also be developed. This plan would establish a uniform schedule for carpet,roofing,appliance and HVAC system replacement,interior and exterior painting,etc. The prior contract with third party property manager Solari Enterprises,Inc.included the development and delivery of such a plan. In spite of the respective contract provisions and repeated requests and follow-up by City staff'for said plan,no such plan was ever provided to the Commission and the City,and staff withheld Solari's final payment as a result. In light of this,City staff recommends that a consulting firm with expertise and experience in establishing these types of capital expenditure schedules be retained to assist with the development of a capital spending plan for long term maintenance. City Council Anuroval of Fiscal Impact Pursuant to the Commission's expenditure limits established in Section 2.126 of the Vernon Municipal Code,it would be prudent for the City Council to approve any proposed Capital Improvement Plan recommended by the Commission,as the Council would need to approve and allocate the related expenditures as part of each annual citywide budget adoption process. In line with staffs recommendations herein,staff intends to recommend that the City Council consider allocating up to$100,000 in the 2015-2016 fiscal year budget toward the cost of the renovation of one of the seven units not renovated in 2007/2008. Further,staff intends to recommend that the City Council allocate up to$150,000 in the 2015- 2016 fiscal year budget for routine repair and maintenance,including various upgrades that may become necessary over the course of the year. These funds could be used to replace the landscaping and install landscape irrigation systems in the seven homes that were not remodeled and perform tree trimming and removal throughout the Vernon and Stafford single family residences. As previously mentioned,the capital costs could be entirely offset by the sale of one or more of the Huntington Park units,should the Commission decide to once again submit that recommendation to the City Council,and should the Council ultimately approve such a recommendation. More information related to current appraisal values will also be presented at the March 11,2015 Commission meeting in a separate staff report. Additionally,if current rental rates remain the same through fiscal year 2015-2016, approximately$330,000 in revenue is anticipated,which would cover the$150,000 recommended for routine repair and maintenance,as well as fixed maintenance and city stating costs. Additional budget-related information will be presented at the March 11,2015 Commission meeting as part of the Finance Director's Quarterly Housing Report.
