INTRODUCTION This document addresses the environmental impacts of a proposed park ~n the City of Santa Mon~ca. It is designed to serve as an informational document for a ser~es of dec~sions that must be made by governmental agencies regarding planning and ultimate land use of the property. Persons rev~ewing this document should keep ~n m~nd the fact that the material provided herein ~s, under State law, informational in nature. It is intended to enable appropriate public agenc~es to evaluate environmental ~mpacts associated w~th the project as proposed. The responsible public agencies rema~n obl~gated to balance possible adverse effects against other public objectives, including economic and soc~al factors,'in determining whether the project ~s approved. This report is being subm~tted to the City of Santa Monica in accordance with their procedural guidel~nes for implementation of CEQA and the State of California, Guidelines for the Preparation and Evaluation of Environmental Impact Reports under the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, WIth recent amendments (1977). 1 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . . SECTION 1.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1.1 PROJECT LOCATION The proposed project is located in the City of Santa Monica approximately 2 miles from the Pacific Ocean. Figure 1-1 depicts the slte and surroundlng vicinlty. The property is bounded by Ocean Park Boulevard to the north, a residentlal area (zoned R-l) to the west, the flight path of the Santa Monlca Municlpal Alrport to the south, and an office/industrial complex [under construction) to the east. 1.2 PROJECT OBJECTIVES The following objectives wlll be met through implernentatlon of the proJect: Creation of a l4-acre park, the second largest ln the City; Provlsion of a variety of actlvlty areas, both actlve and passive; Provision of adequate and easily accessible parking for users of the park. 1.3 PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS As currently envisloned, the park wlll provide a wide spectrum of uses to benefit as many segments of the community as posslble. The design is almed at the creatlon of a pastoral settlng whereby most of the land is devoted to large open areas and extensive landscaplng [Kammeyer, Lynch, 1978). Numerous trees and shrubs 3 . . will encircle the site as well as being interspersed within the park. Topographic variety will be achieved by the formation of gently undulatlng knolls in these areas with a walkway/jogglng track meandering throughout. The large open areas will be devoted to lnformal picnlcking and multi-purpose flelds for soccer, soft- ball, and a Class A baseball field with night lighting and spec- tator seating. Lighting will also be placed along the walkways and in parking areas. A smaller nucleus wlll be designed for more lntense use. To be included are a seniors' activity area, a shuffleboard court, a volleyball court, a basketball court, a formal picnlc area with shade coverlngs for the tables, and a tot play area. A small stage wlll also be provided, facing a small hill which will serve as informal seatlng. Parking will total 100 spaces. Fire Department plans call for the eventual relocation of ltS services at the 25th Street Statlon ln approximately two years. Although not included in this phase of the proposed park proJect, the station may be converted to a community recreatlon center or teen center at a later date. 4 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I ~ FIGURE 1.1 . lfJ. ~ ..., ?> SOUTH LVI ~ ~ ;,; O:l ;:.

SECTION 2.0 ENVIRO~IENTAL ANALYSIS 2.1 PUBLIC k~D VISUAL ACCESS 2.1.1 Setting In its present state, the project site 1S of 11mited aesthetic value. It 1S composed of a relat1vely flat vacant field of weedy adventitious species and cracked pavement. A tall block wall exhibit1ng some graff1ti extends along a port1on of 25th Street facing the residential area. The fire station at the south- west corner of the lot is at least fifteen years old, and not notable in appearance. Views from the site are generally limited to the surrounding land uses, including the airport and other commerc1al and industrial uses and the res1dential area. A more d1stant vista of the coast 1S possible through the southwest corner of the site. At the northwest corner of the property, the Santa Monica Mountains and high-rise structures are vis1ble (see Figure 1-5). 2.1.2 Impact No adverse aesthetic impacts will result from creat10n of the park. Instead, the undeveloped nature of the site w111 be improved through development and landscaping. The border of trees proposed surrounding the s1te will act as a visual buffer between park users and adjoin1ng resident1al, commercial and industrial str1ps. The proposed landscaping w111 also offer visual relief 15 . . from an otherwise uninterrupted stretch of non-residential and residential structures. Additionally, the community will have access to land previously under private ownership. If night lighting of the baseball field 1S provided, the glare could become a source of annoyance to residents. Mitigation Place lighting so that it is not directed towards the residential area. 2.1.3 2.2 CIRCULATION AND TRAFFIC 2.2.1 Setting The proposed project 1S situated at the intersection of Ocean Park Boulevard and 25th Street. Ocean Park Boulevard pro- vides a direct route across the city to the ocean to the west and to the Santa Monica Municipal Airport and other commerc1alj1ndus- trial areas to the east. An average of 14,000 vehicles per day travel th1S ma1n arterial (Alvarez, 1978). 25th Street provides access to homes in the western vicin1ty of the project. Three collector streets adj01n 25th Street: Oak Street; Hlll Street; and Ashland Avenue. The Santa Monica Municipal Bus Lines offers public transit to the slte V1a an Ocean Park Boulevard route wh1ch connects with other var10US points 1n the C1ty. 2.2.2 Impact The proposed project w1ll generate approximately 92 vehicles per day.l Vehicular activ1ty should not contribute to 1 Based upon a Los Angeles City Standard of 6.6 tr1ps per acre 16 .. . . . . I . . . . . . . I . . . . I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . . to peak hour traff~c, as most park users frequent such areas dur~ng off hours. Access to the park will be provided from Ocean Park Boulevard v~a an east-west extension from 28th Street to a parking lot off the terminus of the new street. A previously installed signal light at the corner of Ocean Park Boulevard and 28th Street will act to control the safe flow of traffic to and from the pro- posed proJect. Although additional ingress w~ll be prov~ded from 25th Street, egress will not be prov~ded so as to discourage non- resident~al traffic in the adJacent neighborhood. Park~ng needs w~ll be sat~sfied by a lOO-space lot. In addition to the 28th Street extension, Ocean Park Boulevard w~ll be widened by twelve feet (Margenen, 1978). A fourteen-foot landscaped median to dlvide the four-lane thoroughfare is also included in these plans (Margenen, 1978). Timing of these changes are contingent upon construct~on scheduling of the adJolning commercial/lndustrial complex (Margenen, 1978) . In addition to access by motor vehicles, a bicycle path has been proposed in the Clty, part of which extends along Ocean Park Boulevard. An existing system of sidewalks surrounds the site and will continue to provlde safe pedestrian access. 2.2.3 Mitlgat~on Potentlal congestion at 25th Street and Ocean Park Boulevard might be allevlated by the installation of a traffic signal and posted parking time limits. Use of public transit routes now serving the project area and the adjacent commercial 17 . . development could be encouraged by 1ncreased public1ty, thereby reduc1ng dependence upon the automobile. Furthermore, 1mplemen- tation of the City-proposed b1cycle tra1l m1ght also decrease motor vehicle traffic. 2.3 AIR QUALITY 2.3.1 Setting Proxim1ty of the site to the Pacific Ocean and the accompanYlng land-sea breezes strongly inhibits the accumulation of pOllutants compared to inland areas. Onshore wlnds generally blow most pollutants eastward lnto the Southern Ca1ifornla Air BaSln. The qua11ty of the coastal sector is therefore characteristically much cleaner than the inland sectors. Alr quallty measurements at the West Los Angeles Statlon portray the general character of the area. Table 2-1 summarizes conditlons ln the past two years. 2.3.2 Impact The quallty of the local and regional alr cells will be mlnimally affected as a result of the development of the subject property. The sources WhlCh wll1 contribute to thlS include construct1on activity and vehlcular trafflc. A localized short-term impact on air quality will result from the constructlon process. Grading actlvity wlll generate dust and fumes during the initial stages of removing existlng pavement and lmporting 5011 berms and 1andscaplng. However, these lmpacts can be signlficantly reduced glven implementatlon of mitlgation technlques dlscussed later. 18 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . .

Regional air quality will be affected primarily through motor vehicle emissions. However, the use capaclty of the park is such that this impact will be significantly reduced when compared to more lntense use which occurs with other urban actlvities. Table 2-2 summarlzes the pollutants that will llkely result. Due to the lack of structures (limlted to two restroom facllities and an equipment checkout station}, pollutants generated from stationary energy sources will be insignificant. 2.3.3 Mltlgatlon Measures Short-term alr quality degradation due to construction processes can be alleviated by normal construction dust abatement methods, such as use of sheepsfoot tampers, waterlng of graded surfaces. etc. ProVlslon of bicycle routes and public transit to the site wlll serve to minlmlze the reliance upon the automobile. 2.4 NOISE 2.4.1 Setting Automobiles are the predominant generator of noise throughout the City of Santa Monica. The ambient noise environment of the slte was investlgated by Olson Laboratorles ln 1975 and lncorporated into the Noise Element prepared for the City. Existing noise contours established by that study lndlcate that the subJect property lies outside the 65 Ldn adJacent to the airport fllght path.l Two 24-hour measurements then taken by Olson Laboratories I C~ty of Santa Monica Noise Element, Figure 6, page 7S 20 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I.

At a distance of f~fty feet from the center of the outer lane of traffic, the no~se contour measured 65.5 Ldn' 2.4.2 Impact Analysis Period~cally dur~ng the development phases of the project, construct~on no~se will exist. ~o~se levels which can be expected in conJunction with grading activities and other construct~on processes fall within the range of 81 to 88 dBCAl at a distance of 50 feet. The construction function is predominantly a daytime act~vity; no assoc~ated noise impacts are expected outs~de normal working hours. The temporary annoyances due to construct~on acti- vities will impact to the greatest degree resident~al areas imme- diately to the west, and to a lesser degree, those to the north. Development of the s~te will cause a slight increase in traff~c loadsl on the access roads to the property and this will incrementally increase noise levels. Noise generated in the parking areas will be created by veh~cle engines, t~res, doors, and people us~ng the parking facilities. It is not anticipated that the property will be subJect to sign~ficant no~se impacts from aircraft due to the distance between the site and the alrport. Noise emanating from Ocean Park Boulevard may periodically increase to more noticeable levels (due 1 A total of approx~mately 92 vehicle tr~ps per day is proJected. 22 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . . to buses and trucks), but their durat~on and frequency are not con- sidered adverse. Even at a projected 1995 traffic volume of 20,000, the noise level may rise from the present 65.5 Ldn to only 66.5 Ldn, a neglig~ble increase barely discernible to the human ear. 2.4.3 Mitigat~on Inputs from the construction phase, although potent~ally annoy~ng. will be short-term in nature and will be confined to normal working hours. Long-term noise impacts resulting from traffic c~rcula- tion are considered sufficiently low as to requ~re no mit~gat~on measures. The berms surrounding the project s~te w1ll act both as a buffer between park users and noise emanating from Ocean Park Boulevard and between homes and noise occurring with~n the parking lot. 2.5 PUBLIC SERVICES/UTILITIES 2.5.1 Pol~ce 2.5.1.1 Setting Pol~ce protect~on ~n the City is handled by the C~ty of Santa Mon~ca Police Department. Officer response to emergency calls averages four minutes. Headquarters are located at City Hall on Ma~n Street. 23 . . 2.5.1.2 Impact The Pol~ce Department has ind~cated that the proposed park may result in a slight increase in calls for the area (Ra~ns, 1978). Two patrol cars are assigned to the area between 12 PM and 3 AM; this is reduced to one between 3 AM and noon. It is not antic~pated that those service levels will need to be ~ncreased (Rains, 1978). 2.5.1.3 Mitigation Adequate light~ng in walkways and parking areas wLll allow easy surveillance of the park grounds. 2.5.2 F~re Protection 2.5.2.1 Setting The City currently operates a fire stat~on at the project site on 25th Street. Department plans call for relocation of staff and equ~pment to a new facil~ty at 25th Street and Pier. Reloca- t~on is tentatively scheduled for Apr~l, 1980 (Sturges, 1978). If funds are not eventually requested and approved to revamp the present structure to a recreation center, it will be demollshed. 2.5.2.2 Impact Development of the park will not adversely ~mpact fire department service levels. CallS are usually answered w~thin four m~nutes, and the project w~ll not affect service levels (~turges, 1978). The convers~on of the s~te to park use compared to indus- trial use of 4-5 years ago actually represents a reduction ~n service requ~rements (Sturges, 1978). 24 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . . 2.5.2.3 Mitigation None is required. 2.5.3 Water and Sewer 2.5.3.1 Setting The project site 1S currently served by both water and sewer llnes running along Ocean Park Boulevard and 25th Street. An additional sewer line traverses the southern third of the property. Sewage discharge is treated at the Hyperion Plant, where the C1ty 1S currently operating at its purchased capacity of 11 m1llion gallons per day (MGD). The llkelihood of expanding that capacity 1S highly 1mprobable due to current regulations (Conklin, 1978). 2.5.3.2 Impact No standards are ava1lable to calculate sewage discharge or water consumption rates at park facil1ties (Conklin, 1978). However, the ult1mate development of the park (including land- scap1ng and restroom facilities) would mean a sign1ficant drop in these rates compared to the past operations of McDonnell-Douglas. 2.5.3.3 Mitigation . Timed sprinkler systems should be installed which operate ln early mor1ning and late evening hours to reduce water loss through evaporation. . Install lower-volume toilets. . Prov1de efficient ma1ntenance of plumb1ng fixtures to reduce water loss from leakage due to faulty or damaged washers. 25 . . 2.5.4 Electricity 2.5.4.1 Setting The Southern Californla Edison Company provides electri- city in this area from overhead lines on Ocean Park Boulevard and 25th Street. 2.5.4.2 Impact Southern California Edison Company offlcials antlcipate no problems ln providing service to the proJect as consumption rates for exterior Ilghting are negligible. 2.5.4.3 Mltlgatlon None is requlred. 2.6 LAND USE 2.6.1 Settlng The zoning of the subject property is currently desig- nated M-2, which permlts manufacturlng and industrlal use. It was formerly occupled by McDonnell-Douglas Aircraft, but is now vacant, excluding a flre station at the southwest corner of the slte. Land uses surrounding the proposed project are varled. A residential area, composed of single-family units, faces the park the length of 25th Street. A strip commercial area is located across Ocean Park Boulevard to the north, whlle to the east, lmmediately adJoinlng the park site, construction is now underway for an offlce/industrlal complex. The southern edge of the lot looks upon the flight path of the Santa Monica Munlclpal Airport. 26 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . . 2.6.2 I~pact Development of the project s~te as proposed would repre- sent a change in the current designated zoning from industrial to recreational use. Although the property ~s currently vacant, it serves no public interest as open space. The creation of a park would result in a permanent public facil~ty providing both active and passive activity areas. The only proposed structures would consist of two restroom facilities and an equ~pment checkout bu~lding. Although not w~thin the scope of this study, the present fire station may be converted to a teen center at some point ~n the future (est~mated five years). The dense landscaping and berms enc~rcling the project would provide an effective buffer against any potent~al v~sual or noise distractions between the park and surrounding land uses. 2.6.3 Mit~gation The proposed park represents one of the least intense uses of the land poss~ble and, as designed, it is not seen to conflict with surround~ng uses. As such, no m~tigation ~s suggested. 27 .. . . I I I I I I I I I I I . . I I I . . SECTION 3.0 IMPACTS FOUND TO BE INSIGNIFICANT The followlng brlefly descrlbes those environmental effects of the proposed proJect which were Judged not to be significant. These include effects for which no mitigation lS necessary as well as impacts which are related to incremental increases within the region and would not be consldered signiflcant for the project itself. 3.1 GEOTECHNICAL CONSIDERATION The nature of the project and present condition of the property precludes any negatlve lmpact upon existing landforms or soil condltlons. Hazards normally associated with selsmic activity In an urban development are considered insigniflcant due to the open nature of the proJect and general lack of structures. 3.2 HYDROLOGY The proposed park will lncur no adverse lmpacts upon water resources. Storm drainage facilities at the site will accommodate runoff following periods of precipitatlon. Surface runoff may actually be expected to decrease as a result of an increased rate of absorption following landscaping. 3.3 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES PreVlOUS development of the site has ellmlnated any natural biologic species whlch may have eXlsted. The only vegetation whlch exists on the site lS limlted to adventitlous weedy specles WhlCh 29 . . sprou~ed during recen~ rains. W~ldl~fe is restrlc~ed ~o spec~es normally associa~ed wi~h urban areas (i.e., gophers, ground squirrels, mice, sparrows, mocklng blrds, pidgeons, e~c.}. No rare or endangered species occur in the area. Landscaping associa~ed w~~h the project design will introduce a wide array of non-na~ive vegetation. The urban wildlife cited above may increase through an improved habitat. 3.4 ARCHAEOLOGICAL/PALEONTOLOGICAL/HISTORICAL CONSIDERATIONS A map and records search was conducted by the UCLA Archaeolo- gical Survey staff in order to determine the archaeological signi- ficance, lf any, of the site. According to the survey, no arch- aeological sites are known to exist on the property (see Appendix A). Likewise, no paleontologlcal resources are known to exist on the slte. Therefore, the proJec~ as proposed will not adversely impac~ any resources of archaeological, paleontological or hlstorlcal significance. 3.5 SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONSIDE~~TIONS As the proposed project wlll not generate any additlonal households or businesses, it is not felt that there will be any signiflcant impact on the socia-economic characteristlcs of the surrounding area. 3.6 SCHOOLS No impact upon school facilit~es will result from lmplementa- tion of the proJect. The nature of the project precludes any growth-inducing factors. 30 .. . I . . . . . I I I I I I I I I I I .' . I I I . . . I I I I I I . I I I . . . SECTION 4.0 ALTERNATIVES 4.1 NO PROJECT An alternatIve to the proposed project is that the SIte remain in its present vacant state, However, this would not benefit the community in any way, either socially or economically. 4.2 CHANGE IN DENSITY If the site were developed according to current zoning, permItting industrial or commercial use, the mInor impacts asso- ciated with the present proposal would be significantly magnified, as well as other new impacts created. In particular, traffic, air quality and nOIse Impacts would be much greater. The demand for publIC services and utilIties would also Increase dramatically. Buildings constructed would be subject to inherent SeISmIC hazards. 4.3 CHANGE IN LAND USE A change In zoning, whether allOWIng residentIal or institu- tional uses, would appear incompatIble WIth surrounding land use. Although a residentIal area is immediately adjacent to one side of the project, a contInuation of such use would conflict with other commercial/Industrial uses, especially an ongoing commercial development adjOIning the site to the east. Land uses other than the proposed park would also generate greater Impacts than pre- viously discussed. 31 . . 4.4 ALTERNATIVE SITES The proposed park as the second largest in Santa Monica would offer more recreational advantages than most others. Due to the bu~lt-up nature of Santa Monica, other sites of comparable area are not available. 4.5 ALTEfu~ATIVE DESIGNS Three alternative s~te designs were developed and presented in the Commun~ty Meetings. Of the three considered, Plan "C" was determined the most des~rable. These plans appear in the General Development Plan, Clover Park. 32 '. . I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I .' I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . . SECTION 5.0 UNAVOIDABLE ADVERSE IMPACTS 5.1 CIRCULATION The proposed project will generate some increase in traffic on surrounding streets. However, traffic should not occur during peak traffic hours. 5.2 NOISE Localized short-term impacts w1l1 occur dur1ng construction. Increases in vehicular act1V1ty, especially at points of lngress and egress will 1ncrease noise on side-streets. 5.3 AIR QUALITY Construct1on activities will generate dust and fumes, causing short-term, loca11zed degradation of air quallty. Mobile emisslon sources associated with ultimate use of the project will contribute to reg10nal air cell pollution. 33 I. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . . SECTION 6.0 GROWTH-INDUCING IMPACTS Due to the location and nature of the project, it is not con- sidered to be growth-inducing. Both the surrounding v1cinity and maJority of the C1ty are near full development; very l1ttle build- able land remains. Added to this, the park will incur only incre- mental increases in demand for services. 35 I. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . . SECTION 7.0 CERTIFICATION OF ACCURACY AND QUALIFICATIONS We hereby affirm that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, the statements and information hereln contained are in all respects true and correct and that all known lnformation concerning the potentially significant envlronmental effects of the project has been included and fully evaluated in this draft EIR.

I I AS Off~cer Ra1.ns l.nd~cated, between the hours of 12 noon and 3 o'clock a.m., the polLee department normally ass1.gns ~~O one-off1.cer patrol un1.ts to handle patrol act1V1.t1.eS l.n the area l.n wh1.ch the proposed park w1.11 be located. Between 3 o'clock a.m. and 12 noon a sJ..ngle un1.t 1.5 assJ..gned th1.s approxJ.mate 1-1/2 square ml.le geograph1.cal "beat". The pol1.ee statl.on 1.5 located approxl.mately 3 ml.les from the proposed park slte. Although lt lS lmposs~ble to pred~ct w~th absolute accuracy pollee response tlmes, a reasonable est~mate would be that 10 the event of an emergency sltuation pollee unltS could respond to the proposed park 10 about three ffi1nutes, wlth a delay of ap~roxlmately flfteen to ~~lrty mlfiutes for a non-emergency S1 tuatl0n. I I I The pollce department does not characterize any of the pub11c parks as a "po11ce problem", and would not oppose the constructlon of another park on these grounds. Officer Ra~ns 1nd1cated that occas1onally parks ~n the Clty are used by opposJ.ng teenaae gang members as "battlegrounds", and there 18 no means of provldlng a guarantee that the proposed park would be free of such sporadlc ~ncidents, part1cularly in Vlew of :Lts close geograph1cal proXlmlty to a neighborlng commun1ty from which many r1val gangs or1g1nate~ I I I You have ~nd1cated that there w~ll b@ some form of 11ght1ng around the per1meter of the park, and poss1bly a 11ghted baseball d1aIDOnd. Certa1nly such art1f1c1al l~ght~ng w~ll help allevlate crlm~nally related act~v1ty WhlCh may occur ~n the cover of darkness, such as assaults. In addltlon. S1nce you ~ntend to g1ve the park a pastoral tYge sett~ng. presumably you plan to place shrubbery and I I A-I ~ -2- . other vegetation around the perimeter~ Naturally the more unobstructed view of the park from the surround~ng streets ~s preferable from the standpo~nt of safety to those using the park. In add~t1on, we would recommend that any parking lots constructed for those us~ng the park be 11ghted. With the considerat1ons noted above in mind, the polLee department expresses l.ts approval for the constructl.on of a new park. Certal.nly l.t would appear that the value of such a park to the commun.l..ty would more than outwel.gh the possl.ble added demand on the resources of the police department.

Although not reflected ln our schedule, lncreased servlce lS operated durlng the evenlng peak hour. Of course, there are many transfer opportunltles between Llne #8 and other Santa Monlca, SCRTD and Culver City huses. ~ check of Llne '8 lndlcates that adequate capacity exists for fore- seeable passenger growth ln the Ocean Park Boulevard area. Although we have no lmmedlate plans to change servlce ln that area, it has always been the Municlpal Bus LlneS' POllCY to modlfy servlce If demand warrants.

Long range planning on our part provides for moving that station to a location described as the southwest corner of Ashland Avenue and 25th Street. We will continue to use 25th Street as our pri- mary emergency response route. At this time the only forseeable problem would involve a combination of emergency traffic and children drawn to the area to utilize park facilities. At this time the department sees no substantial impact on either our services or facilities as a result of the completion of your current pl ans. S!.'1cerely, ROBERT O.

The closest recorded site is shown on the enclosed map. The site7 LAn-382 was recorded on the University nigh School property. IOis site apparently was ~ntioned in r.respi's diary in August l769-during the Portola expedition. Portola may have camped at the site area, although this has never been substantiated. The site was discovered during the early 1920'5 (possibly when t~e school was first being constructed). Human remains, paint bowls, projectile points have been recovered from the site. The study area has not been surveyed in the past. Until only rece.ntly the whole block area was covered by t1te huge. McDonneI- Douglas plant. Once the facility ~as torn down, large amounts of dirt were ehurned about, and I am not certain~ but fill may have been brought in to level off the property. I do not believe a field reconnaissance would turn up anything, the nature and extent of site disturbance would have effectively destroyed or deeply buried any archaeological materials. 1 1 1 1 1 I Should you have any questions or comments regarding this project, please feel free to contact me at dle Survey. 1 As an additional note, the property in question was developed as early as 1931 (Sawtelle U.S.G.S. topo, 7.5 min. edition of 1934), but I think the aircraft factory went in during World War II.

As of 1931 the facility on the property in question is shown as a very large structure. Anyway, that's all the information I have for the area. No surveys have been conducted in the region. No archaeological sites have been recorded anywhere in the City of Santa 'mnica, even though W.W. Robinson talks of the aboriginal history in his short article for the Title Insurance and Trust Company ("A Calander of Events in the ~~king of a City: Santa Monica"). The nearest archaeologically sensitive region is located along Ballona Creek, 2 miles to the southeast. Sincere~y , Enclosures: Map Invoice ,. // / Martin n.
