BACKGROUND
The fonner Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Tustin was officially closed on July 2, 1999. The
City was designated as the Local Redevelopment Authority (LRA) for the reuse of MCAS Tustin
and, acting as such, approved a Reuse Plan that provided for future land uses at the fonner MCAS
Tustin on October 1996, subsequently amended on Septembér 1998 ("the Reuse Plan"). The Reuse
Plan was subsequently reviewed and approved by the United States Department of Housing and
Urban Development (RUD) as consistent with federal law regarding the homeless.
In accordance with the provisions of the National Enviromnental Policy Act ("NEP A") of 1969, as
amended, and the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), the federal government and
City prepared a Joint Final Program Environmental Impact StatementJEnviromnental Impact
Report for the Reuse and Disposal of MCAS Tustin. On January 16, 2001, the City of Tustin
certified the Final Joint Program Enviromnental Impact StatementJEnvironmental Impact Report
for the disposal and reuse of MCAS- Tustin (referenced as FEISÆIR herein).
The project is within the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan, which includes 1,000 acres that have been
conveyed by deed from the Department of the Navy to the City of Tustin and approximately 153
acres conveyed by lease to the City of Tustin for redevelopment of the former Marine Corps Air
Station (MCAS). The project site includes approximately 111.77 gross acres within Planning
Areas 16, 17, and 19 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan and an additional seven (7) parcels
leased to the City of Tustin by the Department of Navy, known as Lease In Furtherance of
Conveyance (LIFO C) parcels, as legally described in Navy documents as parcels III-C-3, III-C-
4, III-C-5, III-D-9, III-D-ll, II-D-I0, and portions of parcels III-H-13 and IV-G-3. The site is
bounded by future Warner Avenue to the north, future Tustin Ranch Road to the west, the
existing Army Reserve site to the southwest, Barranca Parkway to the south, and Jamboree Road
to the east. Portions of Reuse Plan Disposition Parcels 8, 14, 16, 27, and 31 are also included
within the boundaries of the vesting Tentative Tract Map for the sole purpose of showing the
ultimate Warner Avenue, South Loop Road, and Tustin Ranch Road right-of-way improvements.
The proposed project is a subdivision request for a vesting Tentative Tract Map (VTTM 16695)
for the purpose of creating approximately twenty-nine (29) numbered lots and twelve (12)
lettered lots to accommodate approximately 1,006,100 square feet of retail development known
as "The District at Tustin Legacy." The project request is also for Concept Plan 04-001 to verify
the project is consistent with the intent of the Specific Plan as a whole, Design Review 04-010 to
review the site plan and building designs, Conditional Use. Permit 04-015 to review two (2)

from Barranca Parkway where a minimum thirty (30) foot building setback is required, and at a
height of sixty (60) feet where a maximum fifty (50) foot height is permitted within Planning Area
19 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan. Primary access to the site will be provided at the
intersections of Warner Avenue and South Loop Road, Tustin Ranch Road and South Loop
Road, and Barranca Parkway and Millikan Avenue.
Excepting the requested variances, the proposed project is consistent with the requirements and
intent of the Specific Plan. The applicant is proposing 1,006, 100 square feet of commercial uses
and Alternative #1 in the FEISÆIR for MCAS Tustin previously analyzed 1,442,710 square feet
of commercial uses within Planning Areas 16, 17, and 19. All related environmental impacts
were considered for the FEISÆIR and. all applicable implementation measures and mitigation
measures are either included in the Mitigation Monitoring Program (Attachment 2 of Exhibit A
of Resolution No. 04-73), DDA 04-02, or as conditions of project approval, as identified in the

The project is not located on a scenic highway nor will it affect a scenic, vista.
Development of the vacant aircraft facilities, parking aprons, and open areas of short
grasses would be replaced by a more urban view with vertical elements, such as buildings,
driveways, parking lots, and landscaping. Development of commercial uses within
Planning Areas 16, 17, and 19 was considered within the FEISÆIR and will have no
negative aesthetic effect on the site when mitigation measures are incorporated with
approval of the project. All exterior design is required to be in compliance with Section
2.17.3 (B) - Urban Design Guidelines for Non-Residential Development of MCAS Tustin
Specific Plan, the applicable development standards in Sections 3.8.2 and 3.8.4, and the
Landscape Concept Section 2.17.2 as they relate to design of Warner Avenue, Tustin
Ranch Road, Barranca Parkway, Jamboree Road, the South Loop Road, primary street
corners, and project entries.
The applicant is requesting to construct a movie theater building fifteen (15) feet from
Barranca Parkway where a minimum thirty (30) foot building setback is required and at a

height of sixty (60) feet where a maximum fifty (50) foot height is pennitted within
Planning Area 19 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan and will be processed in accordance
with Section 4.2.4. In accordance with the FEISÆIR, the proposal includes a design review
application process in accordance with Section 4.2.2 for Development Project review,
which will ensure that the design of the project is cohesive and in harmony with the
surrounding development. The project will utilize a variety of lighting methods to create
distinct lighting sub-areas, or districts, on the project site through the use of pole- and wall-
mounted light fixtures, in-grade and above grade uplights, festival lighting in trees, etc;
however, all exterior lighting would be designed to reduce glare, create a safe night
environment, and avoid impacts to surrounding properties in compliance with Section
2.17.3 (B) of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan and the City's Security Ordinance. The
proposed project will result in no substantial changes to the environmental impacts
previously evaluated with the certified Program FEISÆIR.
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: Mitigation measures have been adopted by the Tustin
City Council in the FEISÆIR; these measures are included in the Mitigation Monitoring
Program for the project or as conditions of approval for the project as identified in
Attachment 2 of Exhibit A of Resolution No. 04-60.

AGRICULTURE RESOURCES: In determining whether impacts to agricultural
resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the
California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model (1997)
prepared by the Ca'ifornia Dept. of Conservation as an optional model to use in
assessing impacts on agriculture and farmland. Would the project:
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) Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or
nature, could result in convenion of Farmland to non-agricultural use?
The project would have a minimal impact to Reuse Plan Disposal Parcel 31 and not impact
prime farmland, unique farmland, or farmland of statewide importance as shown on maps
prepared pursuant to the Farmland Managing and Monitoring Program of the California
Resources Agency, to non-agricultural use. Also, the property is not zoned for agricultural
use or a Williamson Act Contract, nor does the proposed use involve other changes in the
Resolution No. 04-73

existing environment that could result in the conversion of fannland to non-agricultural
use. Existing portions of the site are identified as "Airfield Operations! Agricultural" in the
Specific Plan; however, except for an extremely small portion of Parcel 31, no area of the
project site is currently used or designated as agricultural land. Consequently, no
mitigation measures are necessary and no substantial change is expected from the analysis
previously completed in the FEISÆIR for MCAS Tustin.
Mžtžgation/Monžtoring Required: In certifying the FEISÆIR, the Tustin City Council
adopted Findings of Fact and Statement in Overriding Consideration concluding that
impacts to agricultural resources were unavoidable (Resolution No. 00-90). No mitigation
is required.

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:
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 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 state
ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions that exceed
quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)?
d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations?
e) Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people?
All air quality environmental impacts related to development of the entire Specific Plan area
(including the project site) were considered in the adopted FEISÆIR. Development of the
entire project would: 1) be inconsistent with the 1994 and 1997 South Coast Air Basin
(SCAB) Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP); 2) exceed South Coast Air Quality
Management District (SCAQMD) thresholds of significance for CO, NO, and ROC from
long-term operation emissions from mobile (vehicular) and stationary sources; and 3)
would exceed SCAQMD thresholds of significance during some or all phases of the
project for peak reduced emissions of suspended particulates (PMIO), reactive organic
compounds (ROC), and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) due to construction activities.
However, a Statement of Overriding Considerations for the FEISÆIR was adopted by the
Tustin City Council on January 16, 2001, identifying specific justifiable economic, legal,

social, technological, or other considerations. Since the proposed project includes
1,006,100 square feet of retail development with a maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of .32,
which is less than the 1,442,710 square feet and pennitted FAR range of .32-.54 analyzed in
the FEISÆIR for the project area, no additional impacts are anticipated.
Construction air emissions are also anticipated and would result from the following four (4)
construction activities: 1) demolition (which may include asbestos removal); 2) mass
grading; 3) site preparation and utility installation; and 4) building construction.
Consequently, no substantial change is expected from the analysis previously completed in
the FEIS/EIR.
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: Specific mitigation measures have been adopted by the
Tustin City Council in certifying the FEIS/EIR for operational and construction activities.
However, the FEIS/EIR also concluded that the Reuse Plan related operational air quality
impacts were significant and could not be fully mitigated. A Statement of Overriding
Considerations for the FEIS/EIR was adopted by the Tustin City Council on January 16,
2001 (Resolution No. 00-90).

BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES: - Would the project:
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 U.S. 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) Inteñere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory
fISh or wildlüe 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?
f) Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural
Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional or state
habitat conservation plan?
The FEISÆIR found that implementation of the Reuse Plan and MCAS Tustin Specific Plan
would not result in impacts to federally listed threatened or endangered plant or animal
species, however, the FEISÆIR determined that implementation of the Reuse Plan and
MCAS Tustin Specific Plan (including the proposed project site) could impact jurisdictional
waters/wetlands and the southwestern pond turtle, which is identified as a "species of special
concern" by the California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG), or have an impact on
jurisdictional waters/wetlands. Mitigation measures were included in the MCAS Tustin
FEISÆIR to require the relocation of the turtles and establishment of an alternative off-site
habitat, and to require the applicant will obtain Section 404, Section 1601, and other
permits as necessary for areas on the project site affecting jurisdictional waters of the
U.S. or vegetated wetlands. Therefore, no substantial change is expected from the analysis
previously completed in the FEISÆIR for MCAS Tustin. The proposed project is within the
scope of development considered with the analysis of the FEISÆIR for MCAS Tustin.
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: Mitigation measures have been adopted by the Tustin
City Council in the FEISÆIR; these measures are included in the Mitigation Monitoring
Program for the project or as conditions of approval for the project as identified in
Attachment 2 of Exhibit A of Resolution No. 04-60.

CULTURAL RESOURCES: - Would the project:
a) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as
defined in §15064.5?
b) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological
resource pursuant to § 15064.5?
£) Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique
geologic feature?
d) Disturb any human remains, including those interred outside formal cemeteries?
Numerous archaeological surveys have been conducted at the fonner MCAS Tustin site. In

1988, the State Office of Historic Preservation (SHPO) provided written concurrence that all
open spaces on MCAS Tustin had been adequately surveyed for archaeological resources.
Although one archaeological site (CA-ORA-381) has been recorded within the Reuse Plan
area, it is believed to have been destroyed. It is possible that previously unidentified buried
archaeological or paleontological resources within the project site could be significantly
impacted by grading and construction activities. With the inclusion of mitigation measures
identified in the MCAS Tustin FEISÆIR that require construction monitoring, potential
impacts to cultural resources can be reduced to a level of insignificance. No substantial
change is expected from the analysis previously completed in the FEISÆIR for MCAS
Tustin.
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: Mitigation measures have been adopted 'by the Tustin City
Council in the FEIS/EIR; these measures are included in the Mitigation Monitoring Program
for. the project or as conditions of approval for the project as identified in Attachment 2 of

GEOLOGY AND SOILS: - Would the project:
a) Expose people or structures to potential substantial adverse effeCts, including the
risk of loss, injury, or death involving:
. 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.
. Strong seismic ground shaking?
. Seismic-related ground failure, including liquefaction?
. Landslides?
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 (2001), creating substantial risks to life or property? .
e) Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or
alternative wastewater disposal systems where sewers are not available for the

t) 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 inteñere with an adopted emergency
response plan or emergency evacuation plan?
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
where residences are intermixed with wildlands?
The project will not create a significant hazard to the public through the transport, use, or
disposal of hazardous materials, nor are there reasonably foreseeable upset and accident
conditions at the property. Construction and operation of commercial uses would not emit
hazardous emissions within a quarter mile of an existing or proposed school. The Navy has
prepared and approved a Finding of Suitability to Transfer (FOST), in compliance with the
MCAS Tustin FEISÆIR, detennining that the Quitclaimed portions of the project site are
suitable for transfer and reuse as previously planned within the Reuse Plan for MCAS
Tustin and as shown in the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan. The Navy has also prepared and
approved a Finding of Suitability Lease (FOSL), in compliance with the MCAS Tustin
FEISÆIR, detennining that the remaining portion of the project site currently leased to the
City of Tustin by the Department of Navy are limited areas where lease restrictions are in
place to prevent human exposure to potential contaminants while Navy remedial action and
ongoing investigations are being concluded. These areas, as they affect portions of the site
to be sub-leased and conveyed to the Developer are identified on Vesting Tentative Tract
Map 16695 as lots 13, 14,21,22,23,24,25,26, and 28.
In addition, the project is at least two (2) miles from John Wayne Airport, lies within a flight
approach or departure coITidor, and is within the within the boundaries of the Airport
Environs Land Use Plan (AELUP); however, the Airport Land Use Commission of Orange
County has not adopted an Accidental Potential Zone (APZ) in the AELUP for MCAS
Tustin. As a result, it does not pose an aircraft-related safety hazard for future residents or
workers. The project site is not located in a wildland fire danger area. No substantial
change is expected from the analysis previously completed in the FEISÆIR for MCAS
Tustin.
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: Compliance with existing deed restrictions, rules, and
regulations would avoid the creation of potential impacts; no mitigation is required.

VIII. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY: - Would the project:
a) Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements?
b) Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or inteñere 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 flooding 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 storm water drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources
of polluted runoff?
f) Otherwise substantially degrade water quality?
g) Place housing within a tOO-year flood hazard area as mapped on a federal Flood
hazard Boundary of Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard
delineation map?
h) Place within a tOO-year flood hazard area structures, which would impede or
redirect flood flows?
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 a levee or 4am?
j) Inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow?
The Final MCAS Tustin Reuse Plan/Specific Plan FEISÆIR analyzed potential impacts
associated with hydrology and water quality assuming a development potential of 1,442,707
square feet within Planning Area 16, 17, and 19 on the former MCAS Tustin. The proposed
development includes 1,006,100 square feet of commercial uses. In addition, in accordance
with implementation measures in the FEISÆIR, the City of Tustin and County of Orange
entered into CooperatÎ\:e Agreement D02-119 and an amendment to the agreement to ensure
the improvement of regional channel facilities through the Tustin Legacy site, including
preparation of a Runoff Management Plan (ROMP) that docwnents the existing watershed
conditions and outlines a plan to mitigate development runoff through appropriate backbone
infrastructure to accommodate issues of urban drainage, flood protection, and stonnwater

quality. The developer will be required to provide final engineering documents and plans
that are consistent with the requirements of the proposed ROMP.
The project site is partially developed with several buildings and ancillary site
improvements such as parking areas. The remainder of the site is vacant. The site currently
drains from the northwest to the southeast; an existing earthen channel located adjacent to
and rwming parallel with Jamboree Road conveys a majority of the runoff ITom the site. No
part of the site is within a flood zone, as detennined by FEMA, and there are no dams in the
vicinity. The project site is not expected to be subject to seiche, tsunami, or mudflow. As
discussed in the Hazardous Materials section, there are several existing parcels that are
leased to the City of Tustin from the Department of the Navy (DON), known as "Leases in
Furtherance of Conveyance (LIFOC)," that contain soil and groundwater contamination.
These parcels underlie portions of Reuse Plan Disposition Parcels 11 and 12 and the future
South Loop Road within the project area, and area identified on the Vesting Tentative Tract
Map 16695 as Lots 13, 14,21,22,23,24,25, and 26, and Lot C. The FEISÆIR found that
reuse would not be impacted by hazardous materials in the groundwater or soil since the
DON is in the process of implementing various remedial actions that will remove, manage,
or isolate potentially hazardous substances located within the site. The DON has committed
to an expedited schedule. to support the rapid transfer of affected parcels to support early
reuse as planned in the approved Reuse Plan/Specific Plan for MCAS Tustin. The
developer will be required to obtain DON approval for any construction activities within any
LIFOC parcels on their site and comply with any lease restrictions to protect the DON's
remediation activities and prevent the spread of contamination. Until the property is
conveyed, the tenns of the ground lease with the Developer would preclude economic uses
of the property with the exception of parking, landscaping, and hardscape improvements.
Water Quality
As noted in the MCAS Tustin FEISÆIR, reuse development would increase the amount of
impervious surfaces on the project site, resulting in contaminants commonly associated with
urban development including motor oils, fuel, and other vehicular fluids, and trash being
washed by rain and carried with runoff into local and regional waterways. In addition,
temporary site clearing, grading operations, and dewatering have the potential to dislodge
dirt, surface materials, and contaminated groundwater that could be carried off-site into the
storm drain system. However, the FEISÆIR acknowledged that all reuse projects would be
required to comply with the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for sediment and salinity
in the Newport Bay watershed, which requires compliance with the Drainage Area Master
Plan (DAMP) and the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES),
including the treatment of wastewater, if contaminated, preparation of a Stonn Water
Prevention Plan (SWPPP)that would implement specific best management practices (BMP)
and preparation of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP). Compliance with state and
local regulations and standards, along with established engineering procedures and
techniques, would reduce potential impacts to water quality during construction and long-
term operation to a less than significant level. Consequently, no substantial change is
expected from the analysis previously completed in the FEISÆIR for the reuse of MCAS
Tustin.

Groundwater
Other than construction dewatering, the project will not require continued groundwater
pumping nor contribute significantly to groundwater recharge, which is anticipated to occur
in off-site retention basins. The FEISÆIR did not identify any significant impacts to
groundwater. Compliance with federal, state, and local regulations and standards, along
with established engineering procedures and techniques, would reduce any possible impacts
to groundwater during construction and long-term operation to a less than significant level.
Consequently, no substantial change is expected from the analysis previously completed in
the FEISÆIR for the reuse of MCAS Tustin.
Drainage
As noted in the MCAS Tustin FEISÆIR, reuse and redevelopment would increase the
overall amount of impervious surfaces and surface water runoff. Utilizing the existing storm
drain system would not be practical since the system is undersized. As such, a conceptual
storm drain plan was developed in coordination with the Orange County Flood Control
District and included in the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan to identify necessary backbone
infrastructure to carry the twenty-five (25) year return frequency storm. As discussed
above, the Runoflf Management Plan also discusses specified requirements related to
drainage. The project developer is required to install portions of the public backbone
drainage system surrounding the project site and comply with the ROMP to prevent impacts
to the downstream regional storm drainage system. As part of these improvements, the
developer proposes to lower and cover a portion of the existing Barranca Channel (a
regional channel owned by the OCFCD) and the existing private drainage channel within
the site adjacent to Jamboree Road and replace this drainage channel elsewhere on the
project site. As required by the FEISÆIR, the developer will be required to obtain Section
404 permits from the United States Army Corps of Engineers and Section 1601 agreements
from the California Department of Fish and Game to modify these channels.
As required by the FEISÆIR, the project developer would also be required to design and
construct all necessary on-site (local) drainage systems to adequately conveyor contain the
10-year runoff, 25-year runoff, and 100-year runoff, including any necessary improvements
associated with relocating and piping the existing earthen channel that runs parallel to
Jamboree Road on Reuse Plan Disposition Parcel 11. In addition to designing for the 10-
year and 25- year runoffs, the developer will be required to ensure that on-site project
improvements would not result in increased l00-year peak discharges within and
downstream of the project limits, and would not worsen existing drainage conditions at
storm drains, culverts, and other street crossings, including regional flood control facilities
or construct adequate on-site flood control infrastructure. With adherence to the applicable
implementation measures in the MCAS Tustin FEISÆIR., no significant drainage impacts
are anticipated.

LAND USE AND PLANNING: Would the project:
a) Physically divide an established community?
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?
The City of Tustin is the controlling authority over implementation of the Reuse Plan for the
former base, such as land use designations, zoning categories, major arterial roadways,
urban'design, public facilities, and infrastructure systems. On February 3, 2003, the Tustin
City Council approved the Specific Plan for MCAS Tustin that established land use and
development standards for development of the site. The proposed project complies with the
development standards in Chapters 2.17.3.8, 3.8.2 and 3.8.4 of the Specific Plan, and
compliance with state and local regulations and standards would avoid the creation of
significant land use and planning impacts. Alsot the proposed project will not conflict with
any habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan. Consequently, no
substantial change is expected ûom the analysis previously completed in the FEISÆIR for
MCAS Tustin.

MINERAL RESOURCES: Would the project:
a) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be a
value to the region and the 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 land use plan?
The MCAS Tustin FEISÆIR indicates that no mineral resources are known to occur
anywhere within the Reuse Plan area. The proposed project wìll not result in the loss of
mineral resources known to be on the site or identified as being present on the site by any
mineral resource plans. Consequently, no substantial change is expected from the analysis
previously completed in the FEISÆIR.

NOISE: Would the project:
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 ground borne vibration or
ground borne 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?
As discussed in more detail in the Transportationlfraffic section of this analysis, the
proposed project is anticipated to operate Wlder the maximum pennitted average daily trips
(ADT) identified in the MCAS Reuse Plan Traffic Study, and since Figure 3.14-1 of the

MCAS Tustin FEIS/ElR establishes noise contours around 65 Community Noise Equivalent
Levels (CNEL) based upon aircraft and traffic levels, the proposed project is not anticipated
to generate additional traffic noise beyond that anticipated by the FEIS/EIR. In addition,
Table 3.14-2 identifies regional commercial centers, which include commercial retail,
banks, restaurants, and movie theater uses, and are "nonnally compatible" with community
noise levels up to 75 CNEL. The FEIS/EIR indicates that.existing uses on other roadways
surrounding the site would not experience noise levels that exceed those established as
acceptable for the affected land use resultingftom the full build-out of MCAS Tustin, and
impacts would be less than significant. Since the proposed project is consistent with the
amount and type of land uses and traffic generation analyzed in the FEIS/EIR, no substantial
change is expected from the analysis previously completed in the approved FEIS/EIR for
MCAS Tustin. The City of Tustin will ensure that construction activities will comply with
the adopted mitigation measures from the FEISÆIR, and with local regulations and
standards identified in the City's Noise Ordinance (i.e. restricted days and hours of
construction activities).
While the FEIS/EIR requires an acoustical study to assess reuse traffic noise impacts to
existing sensitive receptors adjacent to Warner Avenue, between Harvard Avenue and
Culver Drive, the completion of this study would occur prior to Warner Avenue, in its
entirety, being connected at Red Hill Avenue.

XIII. PUBLIC SERVICES'
a) 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:
The FEIR/EIS for MCAS Tustin requires developers of the site to con1ribute to the creation
of public services such as fire and police protection services, schools, libraries, recreation
facilities, and bikinglhiking trails; however, new facilities will be provided within the
Master Developer footprint to which the applicant will contribute a fair share.
Fire Protection. The proposed project will be required to meet existing Orange County
Fire Authority (OCFA) regulations regarding construction materials and methods,
emergency access, water mains, fire flow, fire hydrants, sprinkler systems, building
setbacks, and other relevant regulations. Adherence to these regulations would reduce
the risk of uncontrollable fire and increase the ability to efficiently provide fire protection
services to the site. The number of existing fire stations in the areas surrounding the site
will meet the demands created by the proposed project. A future fIre station 'is also
proposed within the Specific Plan area at Edinger Avenue and the West Connector Road.
Police Protection. The need for police protection services is assessed on the basis of
resident population estimates, square footage of non-residential uses, etc. Development of
the site would not increase the need for police protection services in addition to what was
anticipated in the FEISÆIR. The developer as a condition of approval for the project would.
be required to work with the Tustin Police Department to ensure that adequate security
precautions are implemented in the project at plan check.
Schools.' The proposed project is located within Tustin Unified School District (TUSD).
As a condition of approval for the project, the developer would be required to pay
applicable school fees prior to issuance of the building permit.

result in a library demand of up to approximately 2,500 square feet of library space. This
relatively small amount of space is well below the library system's general minimum size of
10,000 square feet for a branch library and would not trigger the need for a new facility.
General Imvlementation ReQuirements: To support development in the reuse plan area, the
Reuse Plan/Specific Plan requires public services and facilities to be provided concurrent
with demand. The proposed project will be required to comply with FEISÆIR
implementation measures adopted by the Tustin City Council.
No substantial change is expected from the analysis previously completed in the approved
FEISÆIR for MCAS Tustin.
Mžfžgatžon/Monitoring Required: Mitigation measures have been adopted by the Tustin

XlV. RECREATION
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?
The Reuse Plan, as a whole, provides for a new 85.5-acre Regional Park, a 24-acre
Community Park and two Neighborhood Parks of more than five-acres and regional and
community riding and hiking paths through the property. While the ReU$e Plan process
identifies individual developers' requirements for park land dedications, pursuant to the
City's Subdivision Ordinance, commercial subdivisions are exempt from Park Land
dedications or fees in lieu. The commercial project would provide pedestrian walkways on
he project site and a Class II bikeway along Barranca Parkway not affecting existing
recreational facilities, so no change is expected from the analysis previously completed in
the FEISÆIR for MCAS Tustin.

TRANSPORTATIONffRAFFIC: Would the project:
a) Cause an increase in traffic, which is substantial in relation to the existing traffic
load and capacity of the street system (i.e., result in a substantial increase in either
the number of vehicle trips, the volume to capacity ratio on roads, or congestion at
intersections)?
b) Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level of service standard
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?
f) Result in inadequate parking capacity?
g) Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative
transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks)?
The FEISÆIR indicates that transportation and circulation impacts would be created
through the phased development of the approved Reuse Plan and MCAS Tustin Specific
Plan. A projected 216,445 Average Daily Trips (ADT) would be generated by full
redevelopment of the base by year 2020 that, if left unmitigated, would overburden
existing roadways and intersections surrounding the base property. The FEISÆIR
indicates that traffic circulation activities at MCAS Tustin generated a baseline of 12,400
ADT when the base was fully operational (1993). The FEISÆIR considered the traffic
impacts and developed a mitigation program to reduce potential impacts to a level of
insignificance. In accordance with the FEISÆIR, the applicant will be conditioned to
participate in its fair share responsibility for both on-site and off-site circulation mitigation
and implementation measures.
The project site will be accessed from future Warner Avenue, future Tustin Ranch Road,
and Barranca Parkway. Internal circulation of the site would be accessed from the public
South Loop Road via private drive-aisles in compliance with the roadway standards of
MCAS Tustin.Specific Plan Section 2.5.2(B) related to secondary arterials.

maximum thresholds of average daily trips (ADT) by planning area based upon land use.
Ihe project site, located within Planning Areas 16, 17, and 19, is identified to permit up to
35,650 ADTs; the proposed development is projected to generate up to 33,933 ADTs, which
results in 1,717 fewer overall trips. The project development will be phased based upon the
development phasing exhibit (Attachment 3 of Exhibit A of Resolution No. 04-60) and as
follows:
. Phase 1 (Minimum Project) will include development in Planning Areas 16, 17,
and 19 equivalent to 641,394 square feet, which will generate 19,411 ADT.
Phase 1 Minimum Project does not include the eight Minor Pads within Planning
Area 19. Phase 1 Minimum Project will be completed no later than twenty-four
months following the permit issuance date, as identified in DDA 04-02.
. Phase I (Minimum plus 8-Minor Pads Project) includes the Phase 1 Minimum
Project and the eight Minor Pads located in Planning Area 19, which is
equivalent to 705,100 square feet of development and generates 24,671 ADT.
The Minor Pads are to be completed no later than five-years following the Initial
Closing Date, unless such Minor Pad is a Lease Parcel in which event the
provision applicable to Lease Parcels shall apply, as identified in DDA 04-02.
. Phase 2 includes the complete build-out of the project in Planning Areas 16
(including 301,000 square feet within LIFOC Parcels), 17 and 19, equivalent to
1,006,100 square feet of development and generates 33,933 ADT. Phase 2
development will be completed no later than thirty-months following the
Subsequent Closing Date for the affected parcel, as identified in DDA 04-02.
Tables 4.12-7, 4.12-8, and 4.12-9 of the FEIS/FEIR identify threshold criteria for
implementation of mitigation improvements at arterial intersections based upon cumulative
ADT's approved for the entire Legacy Project. Based upon the project phasing plan, the
cumulative ADT for the Phase 1 Minimum Project (19,411 ADT) and the previously
approved ADT (6,177 ADT) for Reuse Plan Disposition Parcels 33 and 34 is 25,588 ADT
and is within the cumulative minimum threshold criteria required for arterial intersection
improvements, which is 32,000 ADT. The cumulative ADT for Phase I Full Project
(24,617 ADT) and the previously approved ADT (6,177 ADT) is 30,848 ADT and is also
within the cumulative minimum threshold criteria required for arterial intersection
improvements. Consequently, no substantial change is expected from the traffic analysis
previously completed in the approved FEIS/FEIR for MCAS Tustin. The cumulative ADT
for Phase 2 (33,933 ADT) and the previously approved ADT (6,177 ADT) is 40,110,
which is greater than the minimum threshold criteria of 32,000 ADT. This triggers arterial
improvements at the intersections of Grand AvenueÆdinger Avenue and the SR-55
Southbound Ramps/Edinger A venue in the City of Santa Ana. Improvements at the
intersection of Grand A venueÆdinger Avenue are subject to provisions of a Settlement
Agreement between Tustin and Santa Ana, dated February 22, 2001. Improvements at the
SR-55 Southbound RampslEdinger Avenue are programmed to be completed as part of the
City's Edinger Avenue Widening between SR-55 and 1400' east of Red Hill Avenue

Project (CIP No. 7147).
Table 4.12-10 of the FEIS/FEIR identifies threshold criteria for implementation of on-site
mitigation improvements. The minimwn ADT criteria for roadway improvements is
27,000 ADT (cumulative). Based upon the aforementioned traffic infonnation for each
development phase, it is concluded that the Phase 1 Minimum Project ADT and the
previously approved ADT, which is 25,588 ADT, is under the minimum threshold.
Therefore, the roadway improvements in Table 4.12-10 are not required with this phase of
development. However, the Phase 1 Full Project ADT and the Phase 2 ADT, along with
the previously approved ADT, are both over the minimum threshold and would trigger the
construction of Landsdowne Road, West Connector Road, and North Loop Road between
Red Hill Avenue and West Connector. The requirement to improve Edinger Avenue
adjace~t to the Legacy Project was completed in 2002. In addition, the City has
programmed the construction of the Valencia North Loop Road and Annstrong Avenue
within MCAS Tustin Project (CIP No. 7139) for completion within the next 24-months.
This project includes the construction of the roadway improvements in Table 4.12-10
associated with the minimum threshold of 27,000 ADT. This would fulfill roadway
mitigation improvements associated with full build-out of the project.
The project is adjacent to and results in traffic impacts at the intersection of Jamboree
RoadlBarranca Parkway. The traffiè analysis prepared as part of the FEIS/FEIR considered
traffic impacts at this location and detennined that significant unavoidable traffic impacts
would remain at this location. A statement of overriding considerations was adopted as
part of the FEIS/FEIR.
The project is proposing to design and construct roadway improvements in the City of
Irvine as part of the orderly development of the project and the entire Tustin Legacy.
Improvements include the widening of the north side of Barranca Parkway, consisting of
relocation of electrical transmission lines and utilities in the roadway medians,
reconstruction of the medians and left turn pockets, adding travel lanes, and Class I and
Class II bicycle lanes. The widening of the Barranca Parkway is a mitigation measure of
the Irvine Business Complex (lBC) Project in the City of Irvine, but is necessary at this
time to facilitate orderly development of this project. The project is also conditioned to
improve Wamer A venue in the City of Irvine from the East City boundary to near
Construction Circle, and to improve the Wamer Avenue Southbound on and off ramps at
Jamboree Road where they intersect with the future South loop Road. The project
applicant is conditioned to coordinate any construction activity in the City of Irvine with
their staff and obtain all necessary City permits.
In addition, construction activities are required to comply with all transportation related
FEISÆIR Implementation and Mitigation Measures (e.g., lane closures, street/utility
construction, construction vehicle traffic, etc.). With these mitigation measures, potential
impacts to transportation and circulation resources can be reduced to a level of
insignificance.

t) 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?
The FEIR/EIR analyzed new off-site and on-site backbone utility systems required for
development of the site as necessary to support the proposed retail development, including,
water, sewer, drainage, electricity, natural gas, telephone, cable television, and solid waste
management. The proposed project is consistent with the pennitted uses analyzed in the
FEIS/EIR, and the project is under the assumed 1,442,710 square feet of commercial uses.
In accordance with the FEIS/EIR, the applicant is required to pay a fair share towards off-
site infrastructure and installation of on-site facilities. In addition, development of the site is
required to meet federal, state, and local standards for design of waste water treatment,
drainage system for on-site and off-site, and water availability.

XVII. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE
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? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects
of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past
projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future
projects.)
c) Does the project have environmental effects, which will cause substantial
adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly?
The F:ßIS/EIR previously considered all enviromnental impacts associated with the
implementation of the Reuse Plan and MCAS Tustin Specific Plan and the proposed
project is within the scope of the FEIS/EIR. With the enforcement of FEIS/EIR
mitigation and implementation measures approved by the Tustin City Council in the
Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project or as conditions of approval, the
proposed project would not cause unmitigated enviromnental effects that will cause
substantial effects on hwnan beings either directly or indirectly nor degrade the quality
of the enviromnent, substantially reduce the habitats or wildlife populations to decrease
or threaten, eliminate, or reduce animal ranges, etc. To address cwnulative impacts, a
Statement of Overriding Consideration for the FEISÆIR was adopted by the Tustin City
Council on January 16, 2001 (Resolution No. 00-90) for issues relating to aesthetics,
cultural and paleontological resources, agricultural resources, and traffic/circulation.
The project does not create any impacts that have not been previously addressed by the

CONCLUSION
The proposed project's effects were previously examined in the FEIS/EIR for MCAS Tustin. No
new effects will occur, no substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant
effects will occur, no new mitigation measures will be required, no applicable mitigation measures
previously not found to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and no new mitigation measures or
alternatives applicable to the project that have not been considered are needed to substantially
reduce effects of the project. A Mitigation and Monitoring and Reporting Program and Findings of
Overriding Considerations were adopted for the FEIS/EIR on January 16, 2001 (Resolution No.
00-90), and will apply to the proposed project, as applicable.

The Final EIS/EIR for the Disposal and Reuse of MCAS Tustin considered the redevelopment of entire former base as proposed in the approved specific plan.
The following identifies only those ERVEIS mitigation and implementation measures that are required of the proposed project as identified in the "Environmental
Checklist." All other mitigation/implementation measures identified in the final EIS/EIR are not applicable to this project.* Implementation measures are to be
required where environmental impacts are less than significant, but to support proposed development within the reuse plan area. Both implementation and
mitigation measures are identified in the adopted Mitigation and Monitoring Report Program (Resolution No. 00-090) and are equally enforceable.
