On January 16, 2001, the City of Tustin certified the Program Final Environmental

of MCAS Tustin. On December 6, 2004, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 04-
76 approving a supplement to the FEIS/EIR for the extension of Tustin Ranch Road
between Walnut Avenue and the future alignment of Valencia North Loop Road. On
April 3, 2006, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 06-43 approving an addendum

approving a second addendum to the FEIS/EIR. On July 5, 2017, the City Council
adopted Resolution No. 17-23 approving a second supplement to the FEIS/EIR. The
FEIS/EIR, along with its addendums and supplement, is a Program EIR under the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The FEIS/EIR, addendums and
supplement are considered the potential environmental impacts associated with
development on the former Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS), Tustin.
An Environmental Checklist has been prepared for the project and concluded that these
actions do not result in any new significant environmental impacts or a substantial
increase in the severity of any previously identified significant impacts in the FEIS/EIR.
Moreover, no new information of substantial importance has surfaced since certification
of the FEIS/EIR.
