Report
City Council Meeting: June 14, 2022
Agenda Item: 3.A
1 of 10
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Rick Valte, Public Works Director, Public Works, Resource Recovery &
Recycling
Subject: Approval of City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change Order,
and SCD License Agreement and Contract Modification
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Review, approve, and adopt the addendum changes to the City Yards Master
Plan Environmental Impact Report (SCH No. 2017111053), which analyzes
environmental impacts of modifications to the City Yards Master Plan;
2. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a license agreement and
contract modification to Contract #9011 (CCS) with Southern California Disposal,
to revise terms and conditions that will result in four years of recyclable materials
transfer services through 2026;
3. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a Guaranteed Maximum
Price (GMP) fifth modification to Design-Build Contract #10371 (CCS) in the
amount of $1,750,000 with Hathaway Dinwiddie Construction Company for
design and construction services of the Resource Recovery and Recycling
Transfer Facility Relocation as part of the City Yards Modernization – Package A
Project for the Public Works Department. This would result in a five-year
amended agreement with a new total amount not to exceed $87,273,039; and
4. Authorize the Director of Public Works to issue any necessary change orders to
complete additional work within contract authority.
Executive Summary
The City Yards Master Plan aims to modernize the aging operations and facilities at the
City Yards. On October 25, 2016, City Council approved a design-build contract with
Hathaway Dinwiddie Construction Company (HDCC) for the first phase of the City
Yards Master Plan, referenced as “Package A” (Attachment A). The City’s Planning
Commission certified the City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR)
3.A
Packet Pg. 16
2 of 10
and approved the Development Review Permit for Package A on December 12, 2018.
Since then, the project has undergone several modifications to accommodate various
design and construction service needs (Attachment B). The change discussed in this
report focuses on the relocation of the City’s recyclable materials tip and transfer facility
to the Hanson and Southern California Disposal (SCD) lots, which necessitates an
addendum to the project’s EIR, a change order with HDCC, and a license agreement
and contract modification with SCD.
Discussion
Located at 2500 Michigan Avenue, the 14.7-acre Santa Monica City Yards operates
seven days a week and houses the City’s Facilities Maintenance Division, Resource
Recovery and Recycling (RRR) Division, Street Services Division, Fleet Maintenance
Division, Traffic Operations Division, Water Resources Division, and the Fire
Department Training Facility.
Recycling Operations
For the discussion in this report, it is important to explain the three components of the
City RRR Division’s solid waste management operations:
• Collection –RRR drivers operate automated and semi-automated trucks to collect
solid waste materials from curbside containers residents and businesses set out
on collection days.
• Tip and Transfer – The City contracts with SCD, which operates a private
transfer station located next to the City Yards, for solid waste transfer services.
After collection, RRR drivers unload solid waste materials from their trucks onto a
tipping floor, and the waste is reloaded by SCD workers onto large hauling
trailers and transferred to different destinations based on material type.
• Processing and Disposal – SCD hauls the materials to the City’s various
contracted processing and disposal facilities. Landfill trash is transferred to a
landfill for disposal. Organics are transferred to specialized facilities where the
materials are processed and transformed into compost, mulch, or renewable
3.A

energy. Recyclable materials are transferred to recycling plants where they are
sorted, processed, and marketed to manufacturers.
Before 2019
Prior to 2019, the City contracted with Allan Company to operate the former Santa
Monica Community Recycling Center (Recycling Center), located at 2411 Delaware
Avenue at the southernmost portion of the City Yards. The Recycling Center served two
purposes: 1) allow the public to recycle items such as beverage containers and scrap
metal and redeem for cash; and 2) provide on-site processing of the City’s curbside
recyclable materials. Prior to 2019, RRR drivers collected the curbside blue-bin
recyclable materials and delivered them directly to the Recycling Center for on-site
processing at the City Yards, bypassing the need for SCD’s transfer services.
2019 to 2022
The Recycling Center that sorted and processed recyclable materials within the City
Yards closed in June 2019. From July 2019 through August 2021, RRR drivers would
tip recyclable materials in an area at the City Yards south of the Fire Department
Training Facility, while SCD would transfer the materials to various recycling plants for
processing. In preparation for the Fire Training Facility Expansion phase of the City
Yards Modernization Project, this tip and transfer operation ceased in 2021. As an
interim solution, RRR drivers have been delivering the collected curbside recyclable
materials to the Culver City Transfer and Recycling Station for tip and transfer services,
which is 6.5 miles outside of the City and costs approximately $15,000 more per month
or over $179,000 per year (Attachment C). The interim agreement with the City of
Culver City is temporary until a new permanent tip and transfer area in the City Yards
could be identified, the environmental impact analyses are completed, and a long-term
agreement with SCD is negotiated.
2022 and Going Forward
Staff identified a viable site for a permanent tip and transfer facility utilizing the
southeast corner of the City Yards, known as the Hanson Lot, combined with a
3.A
Packet Pg. 18
4 of 10
trapezoidal portion of the SCD Transfer Station (SCD Lot). Together, they are labeled
as “Relocated Transfer Facility” on the maps below (Attachment D).
3.A
Packet Pg. 19

3.A
Packet Pg. 20

The Hanson Lot (owned by the City) is approximately 22,500 square feet and the SCD
Lot (owned by SCD) is approximately 18,442 square feet for a combined area of 40,942
square feet for the proposed transfer facility.
Under this plan, the two lots would remain under separate ownership but used
complementarily. The SCD Lot would be primarily used for tipping, loading, and
transferring of curbside recyclable materials, while the Hanson Lot would be utilized for
equipment storage, truck queueing, as well as accepting, loading, and storing of
construction and demolition materials and large recyclable items. Tip and transfer
activities may occur in the Hanson Lot in the future.
In the proposed plan, RRR drivers would enter the SCD Lot and tip the curbside
recyclable materials from their collection trucks onto the tipping floor. SCD workers
would pick up the materials with equipment, load them into hauling trailers, and transfer
the loads to recyclable materials processing facilities. Meanwhile, SCD would use the
Hanson Lot to store equipment; as a staging area for its hauling trailers to line up while
waiting to load; and to accept and store recyclable construction and demolition materials
and other large recyclable items brought in by self-haulers, RRR bulky item cleanup
crews, and City crews working on street and water capital improvement projects. The
Hanson Lot would provide enough space for SCD workers to separate bulky recyclable
materials such as dirt, concrete, and mattresses into different piles for better transfer
operation handling. Together, the combined traffic for both lots is estimated at 10 to 15
vehicle trips per day.
The proposed relocation of the transfer facility would involve re-grading and re-paving
approximately 22,500 square feet of the city-owned Hanson Lot to allow drainage and
circulation to the surrounding area. A 150-foot-long and 12-foot-high acoustical K-Rail
barrier-mounted sound wall would also be constructed to extend from the existing sound
wall on the SCD Lot to help mitigate noise. New trees would be planted to the east of
the sound wall as an additional visual and sound barrier. The fire lane that is used to
traverse the area will be relocated to the north as part of Phase One of the City Yards
Modernization project. Finally, chain link fencing and gates would be installed along the
3.A
Packet Pg. 21
7 of 10
northern and western edges to ensure security. No construction activities will occur on
the SCD lot as that lot is already equipped with an existing sound wall.
Environmental Review
The relocation of the transfer facility was not previously assessed in the City Yards
Master Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR) [SCH No. 2017111053]. Pursuant to
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guideline 15164(a), a lead agency
must prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions
are necessary but none of the conditions described in CEQA Guideline 15162; calling
for preparation of an EIR have occurred (i.e. substantial changes that involve new
significant environmental effects or substantially increase the severity of previously
identified significant effects, substantial changes in the circumstances under which the
project was undertaken, or new information of substantial importance that was not
known at the time the previous EIR was certified).
Accordingly, in November 2021 the City retained Dudek, the environmental consulting
firm that prepared the certified City Yards Master Plan EIR, to analyze the
environmental impacts of the following proposed activities:
1. Relocation of the transfer facility;
2. Construction of sound wall on the Hanson Lot to extend from the existing sound
wall on the SCD Lot; and
3. Relocation of the fire lane that currently bisects the Hanson Lot to a location that
connects to the fire access gate at the mobile home park.
Dudek completed its analyses in March 2022 and detailed its findings in the Addendum
Changes to the City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report (Attachment E).
Dudek analyzed a list of 22 environmental factors as required by the CEQA, including
air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, neighborhood effects, noise, and traffic
transportation, among others. In summary, the proposed transfer facility and associated
changes to the City Yards Master Plan would not constitute a substantial change in the
City Yards Master Plan Project nor would it result in a new or greater environmental
3.A
Packet Pg. 22
8 of 10
impact. With the extension of a sound wall, the proposed transfer activities from both
the Hanson and SCD Lots would not exceed the City’s noise ordinance.
In light of these proposed minor modifications to the City Yards Master Plan, an
Addendum is appropriate because none of the conditions described in CEQA Guideline
15162 have occurred which would warrant preparation of a supplemental or subsequent
EIR. Based on the analysis in the Addendum, the proposed revisions to the City Yards
Master Plan would not result in new or substantially more significant environmental
effects than were identified in the EIR and would not require new mitigation measures
than were already required by the EIR.
Public Input
CEQA does not legally require a public hearing for addendums to the EIR. However, the
City chose to inform all property owners located within a 750-foot radius of the proposed
project site. On February 4, 2022, the City mailed a Notice of Availability to 888
residential and commercial property owners and posted the Addendum on its website at
https://www.smgov.net/Departments/PCD/Environmental-Reports/City-Yards-Project-
EIR/. Additionally, the City made available a 30-day public review and comment period
between February 2 – March 6, 2022. Three public comments were received. Those
comments and the City’s responses were included in the Addendum.
Next Steps
HDCC is currently constructing Phases 2 and 4 of the City Yards Modernization Project
and will complete the relocation of the transfer facility concurrently. Staff anticipates
completion of this additional scope about eight weeks after Council approval.
Additionally, since the proposed transfer facility involves both City property (Hanson Lot)
and private property (SCD Lot), a contract modification of Contract #9011 (CCS) with
SCD is required to incorporate a license agreement to memorialize the terms,
conditions, and authorized usage of both lots for transfer services of recyclable
materials. This contract modification for transfer services of recyclable materials would
expire in four years, in 2026, to align with the expiration date of the existing SCD
3.A
Packet Pg. 23
9 of 10
contract, which encompasses transfer services of landfill trash, organics, and City
generated construction and demolition materials (Attachments F). Pursuant to contract
terms, staff is required to meet with SCD to discuss the other services mentioned
above by December 1, 2022, followed by a written notification expressing the City’s
intent to exercise the contract’s renewal options by December 1, 2025. Staff will begin
the negotiations process later this year and return to Council before 2025 for contract
renewal approval and any necessary budget actions.
The proposed cost for recyclable materials transfer services is estimated at
approximately $3.5 million over four years, which is more cost-effective than RRR
drivers continuing to transport recyclable materials to Culver City based on staff
analysis. The cost is deemed reasonable considering Santa Monica’s geographical
distance from recyclable materials processing facilities. The estimated cost would be
absorbed by the existing Council authorized amount for the SCD contract #9011 (CCS).
No budget action would be required at this time.

Requests for Approval by City of self-performed Work shall be
accompanied by documentation demonstrating (i) that
Design/Builder has the capability and experience to self-perform

complete said portion of the Work shall not exceed the agreed
lump sum price set forth herein and that any Costs of Work
incurred in excess thereof in performance of the cast-in-place
concrete portion of the Work, whether incurred by Design/Builder
or others, shall be borne by Design/Builder at its own expense,
not as a Cost of Work and shall not be reimbursed in any form by

1 Introduction
This document is an Addendum to the City of Santa Monica City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report
(EIR) [SCH No. 2017111053], which was certified by the City of Santa Monica (City) on January 16, 2019. This
Addendum has been prepared in accordance with the relevant provisions of the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) of 1970 (as amended) and the State CEQA Guidelines as implemented by the City. According to
Section 15164(a) of the State CEQA Guidelines, an addendum to a previously certified EIR is the appropriate
environmental document in instances when project changes or additions are necessary, but there would be no new
or substantially more severe significant environmental effects beyond those identified in the EIR.
This introduction will discuss (1) the requirements of CEQA, (2) the City Yards Master Plan EIR (SCH
No. 2017111053), (3) the format and content of this Addendum, (4) the City’s processing requirements to consider
the project for approval, and (5) an explanation of the Environmental Checklist (Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines).
1.1 Project Background
The City owns and operates the approximately 14.7-acre City Yards Site located at 2500 Michigan Avenue. Since
the early 1900s, clay-mining operations took place in the central portion of the City and were in some cases used
as landfills, including the City Yards Site. After clay quarries were depleted in approximately 1935, the area was
used as a municipal incinerator and landfill by the City. A portion of the City Yards Site is located within the former
landfill known as the City of Santa Monica Landfill No. 2. The landfill operated as a municipal solid waste and
incinerator ash landfill from late 1947 until its closure in December 1970. The site was then developed with its
existing industrial uses. Over the years, the settling and shifting of the fill material compromised the structural
integrity of some of the buildings on the City Yards Site, including through pavement shift and buckling.
The City took ownership of the City Yards Site in the late 1940s. The City constructed a series of three buildings to
house City Yards operations occupying the land between Michigan Avenue and the former Santa Monica rubbish
disposal pit. These three buildings were designed to accommodate the needs and program requirements of the City
at the time. These buildings included a small garage transfer station and gas station, an auto repair and maintenance
shop with two vehicle lifts, and a broom repair and blacksmith’s shop. These same three buildings from the 1940s
house the majority of the operations in the City Yards Site today. Facilities shops, crew space, and administrative
space were sized to accommodate the staffing levels at the time. This property has been used as the base for the
majority of the City’s field maintenance operations, storage facilities, and other industrial uses since then.
As program needs changed through the years, the City Yards Site was adapted as needed for various City functions,
resulting in an inefficient use of space. Population growth, updates in technology, and differing service requirements
have also resulted in a series of haphazard updates throughout the site. When additional shop, maintenance, or
office space was needed, the existing warehouse and open equipment storage bays were converted and
reconfigured to accommodate these needs. This reconfiguration of old buildings is the result of a decades-long
process of “making do” with a facility that the City outgrew many years prior.
Today, the City Yards operates 7 days a week and currently houses more functions and employees than it was
designed to accommodate. Functional needs and space requirements are no longer met by the facilities for any of
the operations housed at the City Yards. Deficiencies include a lack of maintenance shop space, inadequate

number of vehicle hoists, undersized covered maintenance area for heavy-duty vehicles, a lack of sufficiently sized
employee restroom/locker facilities, unsafe and inefficient on-site vehicle circulation, and a lack of sufficient
parking for City employees and the public.
The City and the design team worked to build a concept design to reconstruct the City Yards, which is presented in
the City Yards Master Plan. The City Yards Master Plan seeks to provide a more efficient flow of operations, improved
infrastructure, and sustainable features. Additionally, the City proposes construction of other new facilities, storage
canopy-covered surface parking, and a multilevel parking structure with up to five levels. The City Yards Master Plan
would also include improved utilities infrastructure, circulation improvements, landscaping, lighting, and
sustainability features. Construction activities for the City Yards Master Plan would occur over multiple phases to
allow for continued use of the site during reconstruction.
An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared for the City Yards Master Plan project in accordance with
Section 15087 of the State CEQA Guidelines. The City Yards Master Plan was certified on January 16, 2019.
Construction of the City Yards Master Plan Project began in 2020 and is ongoing.
1.2 Project Overview
As analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, the City proposed to implement the City Yards Master Plan, which
would entail demolition of existing buildings/facilities and reconstruction of the City Yards Site with new buildings/
facilities, infrastructure upgrades, circulation improvements, and sustainable features to address existing
deficiencies. The change to be assessed in this Addendum is a change in location of the City’s tip and transfer
facility, which would be relocated from its current location at City Yards south of the Fire Department Training area
to the Hanson and Southern California Disposal (SCD) lots. This location for the transfer center was not previously
assessed in the EIR because it was assumed this location would not move. The relocation is necessary due to the
expansion of the Fire Department Training area, although their facilities are not expanding beyond what was
assessed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. For the purposes of analysis, the proposed project is defined as the
implementation of the City Yards Master Plan with the currently proposed changes as follows:
▪ Proposed relocation of the transfer facility
▪ Proposed sound wall on the Hanson lot to extend from the existing eastern wall along the SCD lot
▪ Relocation of the fire lane that currently bisects the Hanson lot to a location north of the Hanson lot that
connects to the fire access gate at the mobile home park
1.3 California Environmental Quality Act Compliance
CEQA, a statewide environmental law described in California Public Resources Code, Sections 21000–21177,
applies to most public agency decisions to carry out, authorize, or approve actions that have the potential to
adversely affect the environment. The overarching goal of CEQA is to protect the physical environment. To achieve
that goal, CEQA requires that public agencies identify the environmental consequences of their discretionary actions
and consider alternatives and mitigation measures that could avoid or reduce significant adverse impacts when
avoidance or reduction is feasible. It also gives other public agencies and the general public an opportunity to
comment on the information. If significant adverse impacts cannot be avoided, reduced, or mitigated to below a
level of significance, the public agency is required to prepare an EIR and balance the project’s environmental
concerns with other goals and benefits in a statement of overrising considerations.

The CEQA Guidelines allow for updating and using a previously certified EIR for projects that have changed or are
different from the previous project or conditions analyzed in the certified EIR. In cases where changes or additions
occur with no new significant environmental impacts, an addendum to a previously certified EIR may be prepared,
consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15164.
Specifically, Section 15164(a) states that:
The lead agency or a responsible agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR
if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions described in Section 15162
calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred.
Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines requires a Subsequent EIR where an EIR has already been prepared under
the following circumstances:
Substantial changes are proposed in the project 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;
Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances in 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;
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 or
negative declaration,
b. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the
previous EIR,
c. Mitigation measures or alternative 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
d. Mitigation measures or alternatives 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.
The purpose of this Addendum is to address whether currently proposed changes to the original City Yards Master
Plan could result in any new significant environmental impacts which were not identified in the City Yards Master Plan
EIR or whether previously identified significant impacts would be substantially more severe such that a subsequent
EIR would be required (pursuant to 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines). As indicated in the analysis provided herein, the
proposed changes would not constitute a substantial change in the City Yards Master Plan Project that will involve
“new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant
effects.” The environmental impacts associated with the proposed modifications would be within the envelope of
impacts analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR and/or do not constitute a new or greater significant impact. On
the basis of substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, the City has determined that an Addendum is the
appropriate form of CEQA documentation to address the proposed transfer facility.

1.5 Preparation and Processing of this Addendum
The City directed and supervised the preparation of this Addendum. Although prepared with assistance from the
consulting firm Dudek, the content contained in, and conclusions drawn by, this Addendum reflect the sole
independent judgment of the City.
This Addendum will be forwarded, along with the previously certified City Yards Master Plan EIR, to the City’s
decision-making body for review as part of its deliberations concerning the project. A public hearing will be held on
June 14, 2022, to evaluate the project and the adequacy of this Addendum. Public comments will be heard at this
hearing. At the conclusion of the public hearing, the decision-making body may provide a decision to approve,
approve with modifications, or deny approval of the proposed project. If approved, the decision-making body will
adopt findings relative to the project’s environmental impacts.

1.6 Initial Study Checklist
The City prepared the proposed project’s Environmental Checklist per CEQA Guidelines Section 15063(d)(3) and
15168(c)(4).1 Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines includes a suggested checklist to indicate whether the conditions
set forth in Section 15162, which would require a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR, are met and whether there
would be new significant impacts resulting from the project not examined in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. The
checklist can be found in Chapter 3 of this document. Following the checklist, Sections 3.1 through 3.21 include
an explanation and discussion of each significance determination made in the checklist.
The following four possible responses to each of the individual environmental issue areas are included in the checklist:
New Significant Impact. This response is used to indicate when the project has changed to such an extent
that major revisions of the City Yards Master Plan EIR are required due to the presence of new significant
environmental effects.
More Severe Impacts. This response is used to indicate when the circumstances under which the project is
undertaken have changed to such an extent that major revisions of the City Yards Master Plan EIR are
required because the severity of previously identified significant effects would substantially increase.
New Ability to Substantially Reduce Significant Impact. This response is used to show when there is new
information of substantial importance that was not known and could not have been known with the exercise
of reasonable diligence at the time the City Yards Master Plan EIR was certified; it indicates that there are
new mitigation measures or alternatives available to substantially reduce significant environmental
impacts of the project.
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. This response is used to indicate that the project would not
create a new impact or substantially increase the severity of the previously identified environmental impact
disclosed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR.
The Environmental Checklist and accompanying explanation of checklist responses provide the information and
analysis necessary to assess relative environmental impacts of the project inclusive of the proposed changes in the
context of environmental impacts addressed in the previously certified City Yards Master Plan EIR. As indicated in
the Checklist, the proposed revisions to the City Yards Master Plan would not result in new or substantially severe
significant environmental effects.
1 On December 28, 2018, the Natural Resources Agency adopted the final text for the 2019 CEQA Guidelines Update. Since this
Addendum is evaluating whether the proposed project would result in more severe impacts or new significant impacts compared
to the City Yards Master Plan EIR, the Appendix G checklist reflects the same checklist found in the Initial Study (Appendix A to
the City Yards Master Plan EIR).

2 Project Description
2.1 Project Location
City Yards Site
The approximately 14.7-acre City Yards Site is located at 2500 Michigan Avenue in the Pico neighborhood area of
the City of Santa Monica (Figure 1, Regional Location, and Figure 2, Local Vicinity Map). The City Yards Site is
generally located in the eastern portion of the City near the Bergamot Plan area. The City Yards Site is generally
bounded by Michigan Avenue and 26th Street Arts Center (previously known as the Bergamot Arts Center) to the
north, Stewart Street and Gandara Park (previously known as Stewart Park) to the east, Interstate (I) 10 to the
south, a mobile home park to the southeast, and 24th Street to the west.
Proposed Changes
The former Santa Monica Recycling Center, which consisted of a public buy back center and a transfer facility, was
located on the southernmost portion of the City Yards Site along Delaware Avenue at 2411 Delaware Avenue. The
public buy back center ceased operations in June 2019. The transfer facility ceased operations in September 2021
(shown in red on Figure 3, Existing Conditions). The existing Fire Department Training Facility, located directly to the
north on the City Yards Site, is expanding into the area of the transfer center, although no new facilities beyond
what was assessed in the City Yards EIR are being added.
The proposed transfer facility would be relocated to the Hanson and SCD lots, which are located just east of Frank
Street (shown in green on Figure 4, Proposed Site Plan). This location for the tip, load, and transfer was not included
as part of the City Yards Master Plan EIR. Additionally, a sound wall would be constructed along the Hanson Lot to
extend from the existing SCD wall.
Trucks would enter the SCD property and tip materials there. Curbside recycled material would be separated out
first. Then other materials would be sorted into different bins that would be located on the Hanson lot (e.g., dirt,
construction and demolition material, and concrete). Tip and transfer activities would mostly occur on the SCD
property, but they may need to occur occasionally on the Hanson lot. Two different locations on the SCD and Hanson
lots were modeled for tip and transfer activities from a noise perspective to determine if these activities would
exceed the City’s noise ordinance.
2.2 Environmental Setting
Existing Land Uses
Currently, the City Yards operates 7 days a week and is used as the center for the City’s maintenance operations,
storage facilities, Fire Department staff training, Water Department, and other industrial uses. These operations
and services include the following:
▪ Facilities Maintenance: The Facilities Maintenance Division consists of Custodial Services and Facilities
Services and is responsible for the overall building maintenance, repairs, renovations, and custodial
services for existing physical assets. The division is composed of electricians, plumbers, heating and
ventilation technicians, painters, carpenters, and custodians.

City-owned parking lots, and state highways located within the City. Street Signs and Markings is
responsible for the installation, maintenance, and repair of traffic signs, roadway striping, painted curb
zones, and crosswalks. Within the City Yards Site, there are vehicle wash bays, a fuel island, covered storage
for vehicles, and a storage building.
▪ Traffic Operations: The Traffic Operations Division is responsible for installation, maintenance, and repair
of traffic control devices, including traffic signs, roadway striping, painted curb zones, and parking meters.
This division responds to reports regarding traffic signs, malfunction of parking meters, and malfunction of
traffic signals. In emergencies, the division provides personnel and materials to assist with traffic control,
including road barricades and traffic signs.
▪ Resource Recovery and Recycling: The Resources Recovery and Recycling Division offers collection services
to residential and commercial for waste, recyclable materials, and landfill trash. It also performs residential
and arterial street sweeping. The SCD Transfer Station is located across Frank Street (1908 Frank Street);
here, the public can drop off construction debris, trash, dirt, concrete, and green scraps. The SCD Transfer
Station is permitted for 1,056 tons per day.
▪ Water Resources: The Water Resources Division is responsible for providing the community with services
related to water supply, production, treatment collection, and wastewater and stormwater collection. This
division is responsible for answering questions with regard to water utility services, responding to billing
questions related to these services, and implementing activities to manage sanitary sewer collections.
▪ Fire Department: The City Yards is home to the Fire Department Training Facility, including three buildings
used for training and one building used as an instructional area.
▪ Other Community Services: The City Yards also hosts the Trades Intern Program, for ages 18 and up, and
Rosie’s Girls, for girls in grades 5-8. Community and Cultural Services offers a 3-week intensive summer
camp, where girls learn applied skills in carpentry, welding, firefighting, and other trades at Rosie’s Girls.
The Maintenance Management Division operates the Trades Intern Program for local youth, offering on-
the-job training in carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, painting, and fleet repair.
Demolition and construction of a number of buildings at the City Yards Site, as approved under the City Yards Master
Plan EIR, is currently underway.
Surrounding Land Uses
The City Yards Site is located in the Pico neighborhood area of the City near the Bergamot Plan area. Land uses
surrounding the City Yards Site consist of a mix of light industrial, industrial, art studios, creative office, commercial,
recreational, and residential uses.

farther to the east.
▪ South: Immediately south of the project site is the SCD Transfer Station, where the collection, sorting, and
transfer of refuse occurs. Additionally, a pest control shop is located to the south. I-10, which runs east–
west, is located south of these uses. Beyond I-10 farther to the south are medium-density two- and three-
story apartment buildings and Edison Language Academy, in the Pico neighborhood.
▪ West: Directly west of the City Yards Site is a two-story office building and a gas station along 24th Street.
Farther to the west across Cloverfield Boulevard are two gas stations and a building supply company.
Extending west until 17th Street are a variety of uses that include a private school; University of California,
Los Angeles, laboratory building (Michigan Operations Center); a food bank; a synagogue; and other non-
industrial uses, amidst the older industrial uses and Southern California Edison electrical substation.
2.3 Proposed Changes to the City Yards Master Plan
For the purposes of analysis, the proposed project is defined as the implementation of the City Yards Master Plan
with the proposed changes, which include the relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall,
and relocation of the fire access to the mobile home park.
2.3.1 Proposed Relocation of the Transfer Facility
The City’s transfer facility, which was located in the southern portion of the City Yards Site, would be relocated to
the Hanson and SCD lots. The Hanson lot is owned by the City and the SCD lot is owned by Southern California
Disposal. The two lots would be combined so that the tipping activities would occur primarily on the SCD lot and the
sorting and transfer activities would occur on the Hanson lot. The proposed transfer facility would occupy an
approximately 40,942-square-foot area.
The SCD lot is currently used by SCD to store equipment used in the transfer station operations. The addition of the
Hanson lot would allow enough space to sort the materials into different piles, primarily dirt, concrete, construction
and demolition material, large recyclable items such as mattresses and scrap metal as well as store equipment and
provide a staging area for trucks that may be waiting for the SCD transfer area to clear of trucks depositing materials.
2.3.2 Proposed Sound Wall
Immediately east of the proposed transfer facility (item 1 on Figure 4), a 12-foot-high acoustical K-Rail barrier
mounted sound wall would be constructed to extend from the existing wall on the SCD lot. The sound wall would be
approximately 150 to 200 feet long.

Determination (To be completed by the Lead Agency)
Based on the information and analysis in this addendum, pursuant to Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines, the
City of Santa Monica determines the following.
Modifications to the proposed project as described in this addendum and any altered conditions since adoption of
the project's 2019 EIR:
■ would not result in any new significant or potentially significant environmental effects, and
■ would not substantially increase the severity or intensity of previously identified effects.
In addition, no new information of substantial importance has arisen that shows that:
■ the proposed project modifications would have new significant or potentially significant effects,
■ the proposed project modifications would have substantially more severe effects,
■ mitigation measures previously found to be infeasible would in fact be feasible, or
■mitigation measures that are considerably different from those analyzed in the 2019 EIR would
substantially reduce one or more significant or potentially significant effects on the environment.
Thus, none of the conditions described in Section 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines calling for preparation of a
subsequent MND have occurred. For this reason, this Addendum to the 2019 EIR is consistent with Section 15164
of the State CEQA Guidelines and is the appropriate mechanism to address the proposed project modifications.

Evaluation of Environmental Impacts
Section 15168(c) of the CEQA Guidelines provides that when the lead agency adopts a program EIR, subsequent
activities in the program are examined in light of the program EIR to determine whether an additional environmental
document must be prepared. If the lead agency finds that pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, no new
effects could occur or mitigation measures would be required, the activity may be approved as being within the
scope of the project covered by the program EIR (CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(c)(2)). Pursuant to Section 21166
of CEQA and Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines, if the lead agency determines that one or more of the following
conditions are met, a subsequent EIR or negative declaration shall be prepared for the project:
1. Substantial project changes are proposed that will require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative
declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the
severity of previously identified significant effects;
2. Substantial changes would occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken
that require major revisions to the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new
significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant
effects; or
3. New information of substantial importance that was not known and could not have been known with the
exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified or the negative declaration was
adopted shows any of the following:
A. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR or negative declaration;
B. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than identified 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 proponent
declines to adopt the mitigation measures or alternatives; or
D. Mitigation measures or alternatives that are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous
EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project
proponent declines to adopt the mitigation measures or alternatives.
Where none of the conditions specified in Section 15162 are present, the lead agency can choose not to prepare
a subsequent or supplemental EIR (CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a)), but may prepare a negative declaration,
an addendum, or no further CEQA documentation. Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines states that an addendum
to an EIR shall be prepared “if some changes or additions are necessary, but none of the conditions described in
Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred.”
In accordance with the CEQA Guidelines, the City has determined that an Addendum to the City Yards Master Plan EIR
is the appropriate environmental document for the project. This Addendum reviews the changes proposed by the
project and any pertinent changes to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken that have occurred
since the City Yards Master Plan EIR was certified. It also reviews any new information of substantial importance that
was not known and could not have been known with exercise of reasonable diligence at the time that the City Yards
Master Plan EIR was certified. It further examines whether, as a result of any changes or any new information, a
subsequent or supplemental EIR may be required. This examination includes an analysis of the provisions of Section
21166 of CEQA and Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines and their applicability to the project.

I. AESTHETICS/SHADOWS – Except as provided in Public Resources Code Section 21099, would the project:
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 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?
e) Produce extensive shadows affecting
adjacent uses or property?
Previous Significance Determination
The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined that development in accordance with the City Yards Master Plan would
result in the following:
Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and the SCD lot, which is directly adjacent to the City Yards Site.
As analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, the City is largely urbanized and features a variety of natural
and built visual resources. The urbanized and industrial nature of the City Yards Site and the immediate
3.A.e
Packet Pg. 151 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 17 MAY 2022
surrounding area limit opportunities for views to scenic resources. Furthermore, the City Yards Site and
surrounding area are not within the viewshed of important visual resources. As such, the proposed project
inclusive of the proposed changes would not have an adverse effect on a scenic vista, as there are no
scenic resources, either natural or created, within the viewshed of the City Yards Site.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with scenic vistas would occur, and the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation
measures are required.
b) Would the project substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock
outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and the SCD lot, which is directly adjacent to the City Yards Site.
As analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, there are no officially designated state or county scenic
highway within the City. According to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans 2018), the
nearest eligible, not designated, state scenic highway is Pacific Coast Highway, located approximately 1.2
miles to the west from the City Yards Site. Since there are no designated scenic highways within the City,
the proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes would not damage scenic resources within a state
scenic highway.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with scenic highways would occur, and the level
of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new
mitigation measures are required.
c) Would the project substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings?
Short-Term Construction Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan
(relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of fire lane) would not
construct new buildings from what was analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR and construction
activities would be limited to those required for the sound wall. During the various phases of proposed project
construction, existing buildings and facilities would be vacated and demolished and new buildings and facilities
would be constructed. During each phase, construction activity would be concentrated in a particular area of the
City Yards Site to allow for ongoing City operations. Within this construction area, an assortment of construction
vehicles and equipment, including graders, rollers, tractors/loaders/backhoes, pavers, and air compressors,
may be in operation during working hours and a temporary influx of construction workers would occur. Visual
changes to the project site would occur throughout construction as existing structures are removed and the
forms of new structures (e.g., new fence) slowly take shape. The staging of construction equipment and vehicles
and construction of smaller-scale structures on the site would not be noticeable to off-site viewers in the
surrounding area, because construction fencing would be erected pursuant to SMMC requirements. Further,
construction activities would occur on an already developed industrial site.
Therefore, no new or more severe short-term construction impacts associated with visual character and
quality would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards
Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.

ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 18 MAY 2022
Long-Term Operational Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As proposed, the City intends to modernize City Yards
operations through the construction of new structures similar in scale to existing structures. The transfer
facility would be relocated within the City Yards Site and the SCD lot, which are already supporting industrial
uses and would not involve the construction of new buildings. Therefore, there would be no change to the
previous determination made in the City Yards Master Plan EIR with regard to new construction and
renovation of existing structures.
The proposed relocation of the transfer facility would also require the construction of a 12-foot-high acoustical
K-Rail barrier mounted sound wall that would extend from the existing wall on the SCD lot and would be
shielded using a landscape buffer; thus, the proposed 12-foot wall would not result in degradation of the
existing visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings. The proposed relocation of the transfer
facility would not degrade the existing visual character or quality because this use already occurs within the
City Yards Site. Further, under CEQA Section 21099 (as amended by Senate Bill 743), a project’s aesthetic
impacts are not considered significant impacts on the environment if the project is a residential, mixed-use
residential, or employment center project, or the project is located on an infill site within a transit-priority area.
This provision for aesthetic impacts does not include impacts to historic or cultural resources. The proposed
project is an employment center project located on an infill site. The project site is classified as in a transit-
priority area due to its proximity to the 26th Street/Bergamot Station for the Expo Line. Therefore, aesthetic
impacts would be less than significant.
Therefore, no new or more severe long-term operational impacts associated with visual character and
quality would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards
Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.
d) Would the project create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or
nighttime views in the area?
Short-Term Construction Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As analyzed in the EIR, the City Yards Master Plan would
be constructed in phases over an approximately 9-year period. The only new construction associated with
the proposed changes would be the sound wall and minor grading and paving for the fire lane, which would
be constructed along with the other components of the City Yards Master Plan. Construction activities would
typically occur during hours permitted by the SMMC (Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and
Saturday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.) and would not generally require the use of portable lighting elements to
illuminate development areas during evening hours.
Portable lighting would not typically be required during construction of the proposed project. However, if
construction crews use lighting during specific months of the year when hours of daylight are reduced, then
use of lighting would conform to SMMC requirements regulating lighting. Due to the anticipated limited
need for portable lighting during construction activities, the temporary and short-term duration of its use,
and the proposed project’s conformance with the SMMC, use of lighting on the project site during
construction activities would not adversely affect nighttime views in the area.

Therefore, no new or more severe short-term construction impacts associated with light and glare would
occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR;
no new mitigation measures are required.
Long-Term Operational Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As proposed, the City intends to modernize City Yards
operations through the construction of new structures that are similar in scale to existing structures. As
analyzed in the EIR, new interior and exterior building lighting and lighting on the internal drive aisles would
operate in a similar manner as existing lighting on the City Yards Site. The only new construction associated
with the proposed changes would be the sound wall, which does not include any new lighting sources. The
relocation of the transfer facility near the existing mobile home park may include additional nighttime
lighting for security purposes. However, the City Yards Master Plan, including the proposed changes, would
comply with SMMC standards regulating shielding, light trespass, and maximum height of light poles. The
SMMC requires that all lighting fixtures be shielded “so as not to produce obtrusive glare” onto the public
right-of-way or adjacent properties and that light be primarily retained on site (“lighting may not illuminate
other properties in excess of a measurement of 0.5 foot candles of light”) (SMMC, Section 9.21.080[C]).
Therefore, adherence to SMMC standards and regulations regarding shielding and light trespass would
reduce potentially adverse effects to daytime and nighttime views due to new lighting to a less-than-
significant level.
Therefore, no new or more severe long-term operational impacts associated with light and glare would
occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR;
no new mitigation measures are required.
e) Would the project produce extensive shadows affecting adjacent uses or property?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. A change in significance impact would occur if the
proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan would create a shade or shadow that affects shadow-
sensitive uses such as open space or residential uses. The only new construction associated with the
proposed changes would be the sound wall, which would not have the potential to produce new shadows
affecting shadow-sensitive uses such as Gandara Park and the mobile home park to the east of the
proposed project site. This structure would be a continuation of the fence located on the western boundary
of the mobile home park; however, the structure would be shielded using a landscape buffer. Uses
associated with the transfer facility would move closer to the mobile home park; however, the majority of
activities would occur several feet lower than the proposed 12-foot fence and landscaping, and thus, would
not produce extensive shadows affecting the mobile home park.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with extensive shadows would occur, and the level
of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation
measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with aesthetics would occur, and the level of impact would
not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation measures are required.

II. AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY 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 California Dept. Conservation as an optional model to use
in assessing impacts on agriculture and farmland. In determining whether impacts to forest resources,
including timberland, are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to information
compiled by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection regarding the state’s inventory of
forest land, including the Forest and Range Assessment Project and the Forest Legacy Assessment project;
and forest carbon measurement methodology provided in Forest Protocols adopted by the California Air
Resources Board. 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) 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 the 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?

Previous Significance Determination
The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined that development in accordance with the City Yards Master Plan would
result in the following:
a) Would the project 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? (No Impact)
b) Would the project conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract? (No Impact)
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))? (No Impact)
d) Result in the loss of forest land or conversion of forest land to non-forest use? (No Impact)
e) Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature, could result in
conversion of Farmland, to nonagricultural use or conversion of forest land to non-forest use? (No Impact)
Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project 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?
and
b) Would the project conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract?
and
c) Would the project 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))?
and
d) Would the project result in the loss of forest land or conversion of forest land to non-forest use?
and
e) Would the project involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature,
could result in conversion of Farmland, to non-agricultural use?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site. As analyzed in the EIR, the California Department of Conservation
designates the City Yards Site as Urban and Built-Up Land (DOC 2016a). The SCD lot is also zoned Urban
and Built-Up Land. Therefore, the proposed project would not convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland,
3.A.e
Packet Pg. 156 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 22 MAY 2022
or Farmland of Statewide Importance (collectively “Important Farmland”) to non-agricultural use. In
addition, the Los Angeles County Williamson Act 2015/2016 Map designates the City Yards Site and
surrounding land as non-Williamson Act Land (DOC 2016b). In addition, the City Yards Site is zoned
Industrial Conservation (IC), and the surrounding land uses consist of a mix of art, residential, creative
office, research and development, and industrial uses. Therefore, the proposed project changes, which are
on the City Yards Site and the adjacent SCD lot, would not conflict with agriculturally zoned land. The
implementation of the City Yards Master Plan would not contribute to the loss or conservation of forest
land, and would not result in the conversion of Farmland to non-agricultural use or conversion of forest land
to non-forest use.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with agricultural lands, agricultural zoning,
Williamson Act contracts, forestland, or timberland would occur; the level of impact would not change from
the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; and no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with agricultural lands, forestland, or timberland would
occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new
mitigation measures are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR did not require any mitigation measures related to agriculture or forestry resources.

The City Yards Site is located within the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB), which includes all of Orange County
and the non-desert portions of Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties, and is within the
jurisdictional boundaries of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). The SCAQMD
administers the Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) for the SCAB, which is a comprehensive document
outlining an air pollution control program for attaining all California Ambient Air Quality Standards (CAAQS)
and National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). Each AQMP incorporates significant new scientific
data, primarily in the form of updated emissions inventories, ambient measurements, new meteorological
episodes, and new air quality modeling tools. The most recent AQMP is the 2016 AQMP (SCAQMD 2017),
which was adopted by SCAQMD in March 2017. The 2016 AQMP is designed to achieve the applicable NAAQS
for ozone (O3) and particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter equal to or less than 2.5 microns (fine
particulate matter; PM2.5) and the CAAQS for O3, particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter equal to or
less than 10 microns (coarse particulate matter; PM10), and PM2.5 through a variety of air quality control
measures. The 2016 AQMP also accommodates planned growth in the SCAB. The 2016 AQMP was approved
by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) on April 10, 2017. The purpose of a consistency finding is to
determine if a project is inconsistent with the assumptions and objectives of the regional air quality plans,
and thus if it would interfere with the region’s ability to comply with federal and state air quality standards.
SCAQMD recommends that environmental documents discuss the project’s consistency with the current
AQMP (2016 AQMP), including consistency with a local government’s general plan.
▪ Consistency Criterion No. 1: The proposed project will not result in an increase in the frequency or
severity of existing air quality violations or cause or contribute to new violations, or delay the timely
attainment of air quality standards of the interim emissions reductions specified in the AQMP.
▪ Consistency Criterion No. 2: The proposed project will not exceed the assumptions in the AQMP or
increments based on the year of project buildout and phase.
To address the criterion regarding the proposed changes’ potential to result in an increase in the frequency
or severity of existing air quality violations, cause or contribute to new violations, or delay timely attainment
of the ambient air quality standards or interim emission reductions in the AQMP, project-generated
construction and operational criteria air pollutant emissions were estimated using the California Emissions
Estimator Model (CalEEMod) Version 2020.4.2. Results of this analysis are included in Appendix A. With
regard to construction emissions, the proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan would result in
construction of a sound wall to extend from the wall along the east side of the SCD lot. Construction activities
for the wall (fencing) would be minimal and estimated criteria air pollutant emissions would be below
applicable SCAQMD construction thresholds. Operational criteria air pollutant emissions for the proposed
changes were added to those estimated in the City Yards Master Plan EIR and estimated combined emissions
would not exceed thresholds for criteria air pollutants and precursors for which the region is in nonattainment,
as shown in Section 3.3(b). Specifically, operational emissions would not exceed any of the SCAQMD
significance thresholds for any criteria air pollutant; thus, resulting in a less-than-significant impact.
The SCAB is a nonattainment area for O3, nitrogen dioxide (NO2), PM10, and PM2.5 under the NAAQS and/or CAAQS
(CARB 2020; EPA 2021). As concluded in Section 3.3(b), the proposed project would result in a net increase of
emissions and would not exceed the SCAQMD significance thresholds. Therefore, the proposed project would not
contribute to the frequency or severity of existing air quality violations or delay timely attainment of the ambient air
quality standards or interim emission reductions in the 2016 AQMP. Thus, the proposed project inclusive of the
proposed changes is not anticipated to result in more severe impacts related to consistency with the SCAQMD air
quality planning efforts than what was assessed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR.

ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 25 MAY 2022
With regard to Criterion 2, the City Yards Master Plan EIR concluded that buildout of the City Yards Master
Plan would result in population growth consistent with the Southern California Association of Governments’
(SCAG’s) overall growth projections. Because the proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes does
not include uses that would generate or induce population growth in the project area, the proposed project
would be considered consistent with the SCAG 2016 Regional Growth Forecast and would not conflict with
the 2016 AQMP or exceed the assumptions in the 2016 AQMP. Additionally, the City Yards Site is currently
designated as Industrial Conservation, which preserves space for industrial uses that provide a job base,
affordable space for small-scale industrial and manufacturing businesses, and a center of economic activity
for the City. Accordingly, the proposed project’s changes would be consistent with the zoning and general
plan land use designations.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with consistency with the 2016 AQMP would occur,
the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new
mitigation measures are required.
b) Would the project violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air
quality violation?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan EIR found that impacts
associated with air quality standard violations would be less than significant.
Project construction is anticipated to include minor site preparation and grading, sound wall fence
construction, asphalt paving, and striping and signage for the pavement. Notably, no new buildings would
be constructed for the tip and transfer activities since existing on-site facilities would be utilized. Criteria
air pollutant emissions from construction of the proposed changes were estimated using CalEEMod Version
2020.4.0. Construction scenario assumptions, including phasing, equipment mix, and vehicle trips, were
based on information provided by the City and CalEEMod default values and are presented in Table 1. For
purposes of estimating project emissions, and based on information provided by City, it is assumed that
construction of the proposed project changes (site preparation, grading, and sound wall) would occur over
3 months, with construction starting in the beginning of February 2022 and being completed by the end of
April 2022. Default values for horsepower and load factor as provided in CalEEMod were used for all
construction equipment listed in Table 1. It was conservatively assumed that all equipment used during
each construction subphase would operate 5 days per week. Of note, implementation of PDF-AQ-1, which
requires that equipment over 75 horsepower meet Tier 4 Interim requirements, was assumed. Complete
detailed construction assumptions are included in Appendix A.

See Appendix A for complete results.
The values shown are the maximum summer or winter daily emissions results from CalEEMod. These emissions reflect CalEEMod “mitigated” output, which accounts for compliance with SCAQMD Rule 403 (Fugitive Dust) (watering
two times daily) and implementation of PDF-AQ-1, which requires that all construction equipment with a horsepower greater than 75
would have certified Tier 4 interim engines.
As shown in Table 1, maximum daily construction emissions would not exceed the SCAQMD significance
thresholds for volatile organic compounds (VOCs), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur
oxides (SOx), PM10, or PM2.5 during construction in 2022. Construction-generated emissions would be
temporary and would not represent a long-term source of criteria air pollutant emissions. As such, impacts
would be less than significant.
Operation of the City Yards Master Plan would generate VOCs, NOx, CO, SOx, PM10, and PM2.5 emissions
from area sources, including the use of consumer products, architectural coatings for repainting, landscape
maintenance equipment, energy sources, stationary sources (emergency generators), off-road equipment
(forklifts and welders), and fire department training. No increase in mobile source (vehicles) emissions was
anticipated. Notably, it was assumed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR that motor vehicle trips would be
reduced due to the removal of the Santa Monica Recycling Center/buy-back center.
Operation of the proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes is anticipated to generate minimal
criteria air pollutant emissions from area sources (use of consumer products for asphalt degreasing) and
off-road equipment; no energy sources (natural gas) or mobile source emissions are anticipated. CalEEMod
2020.4.0 was used to estimate area source emissions from the project and a spreadsheet model was used
to estimate emissions from off-road equipment. Off-road equipment is anticipated to include one 2019
LH 22 Material Handler (172 horsepower) and three 2021 Liebherr Wheel Loaders L546 (188
horsepower), which would all meet Tier 4 Final requirements. It was assumed that each piece of off-road
equipment would operate for 8 hours per day, 260 days per year.
Regarding mobile sources (on-road vehicles), the project assessed in this addendum is not anticipated
generate a net increase in employee vehicle or truck trips compared to existing and historical conditions
as explained below. Regarding employees, the project would be served by existing employees of the City’s
Resource, Recovery, and Recycling Division and no increase in employment is anticipated to be required.
Regarding trucks, currently, inbound trips occur to the SCD site that typically consist of dump trucks of various
sizes hauling construction debris and aggregate as operated by the Santa Monica Streets Department, as well
as self-haul trips usually in pickup trucks. Regarding outbound trips, currently SCD transfer trucks haul
construction debris and aggregate to Downtown Diversion (downtown Los Angeles).
Regarding curbside material trucks, historically (ending in summer 2020), the City’s recycling route drivers
delivered their recycling loads to Allan Company, which was located less than 200 feet north of the
proposed tip and transfer area. After Allan Company closed their site, the City’s route drivers delivered their
recycling loads to an area about 500 to 600 feet northwest of the proposed tip and transfer site to an area
directly south of the Fire Department’s training center in the City Yards Site, located on Delaware Avenue.
For an interim period (October 2021–summer 2022) and reflecting current conditions, curbside material
is transported in City trucks to Culver City. Under both historical conditions (curbside material collected
within the City is delivered to a tip and transfer station within City limits) and current conditions (curbside
material collected within the City is delivered to a tip and transfer station in Culver City), following the tip
and transfer sorting, the material would be transported to a materials recovery facility, such as facilities in
the City of Wilmington and Puente Hills Recovery Station in the City of Whittier.

The project would eliminate the need to transfer curbside material to Culver City and instead would be
collected at the City Yards Site; however, curbside material would continue to be exported by City trucks to
a materials recovery facility. Accordingly, curbside material would continue to generate trips as under
current and historical conditions and would result in a nominal changes to total vehicle miles traveled
compared to current and historical conditions.
As stated above, all other inbound and outbound trips (e.g., construction debris and aggregate and self-
haul) are currently occurring at the SCD site; therefore, collection and export of material at the project site
would result in no net increase in trips and a negligible change in vehicle miles traveled given the nominal
distance between the SCD site and the project site. As such, no mobile source emissions are anticipated
to be generated by the proposed changes, so no quantification of such potential emissions is provided.
Table 3 presents the estimated operational criteria air pollutant emissions associated with the operation
of the proposed project (transfer facility relocation, year 2022) plus operation of the City Yards Master Plan
Project as evaluated in the City Yards Master Plan EIR (year 2028) and estimated existing emissions in
2019 as evaluated in the City Yards Master Plan EIR to estimate the net change in criteria air pollutant
emissions. Details of the emission calculations are provided in Appendix A.

The values shown are the maximum summer or winter daily emissions results from CalEEMod.
As shown in Table 3, operational emissions are not anticipated to exceed the SCAQMD thresholds for VOC,
NOx, CO, SOx, PM10, or PM2.5. Therefore, impacts associated with project-generated operational criteria air
pollutant emissions would be less than significant.
Therefore, with implementation of PDF-AQ-1 during construction, no new or more severe impacts
associated with violating regional air quality standards or contributing substantially to existing/projected
violations would occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards
Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
c) Would the project 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 which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan EIR found that the City Yards
Master Plan’s impacts associated with a cumulatively considerable net increase of a non-attainment
criteria pollutant would be less than significant.
In analyzing cumulative impacts from the proposed project, the assessment must specifically evaluate a
project’s contribution to the cumulative increase in pollutants for which the SCAB is designated as
nonattainment for the federal or state standards. Implementation of the proposed project would generate
long-term operational emissions associated with vehicle traffic to and from the City Yards Site, as well as
energy use of buildings and facilities.
Air pollution is largely a cumulative impact. The nonattainment status of regional pollutants is a result of
past and present air emission sources. Pursuant to the federal and California Clean Air Acts, the SCAQMD
develops and implements plans for future attainment of ambient air quality standards. Based on these
considerations, project-level thresholds of significance for criteria pollutants are used to help determine
whether a project’s individual emissions would have a cumulatively considerable contribution on air quality.
A project would be considered to have a significant cumulative impact if the project’s contribution accounts
for a significant proportion of the cumulative total emissions (i.e., it represents a “cumulatively considerable
3.A.e
Packet Pg. 164 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 30 MAY 2022
contribution” to the cumulative air quality impact) for pollutants for which the SCAB is designated as
nonattainment for the NAAQS or CAAQS (i.e., O3, NO2, PM10, and PM2.5). If a project’s emissions would
exceed the SCAQMD significance thresholds, it would be considered to have a cumulatively considerable
contribution to nonattainment status in the SCAB (SCAQMD 2003). If a project does not exceed thresholds
and is determined to have less-than-significant project-specific impacts, it may still contribute to a
cumulative impact on air quality; however, the basis for analyzing the propose project’s cumulative
considerable contribution under CEQA is the proposed project’s potential to exceed SCAQMD thresholds
and its consistency with the most recent AQMP.
The SCAB is a nonattainment area for O3, NO2, PM10, and PM2.5 under the NAAQS and/or CAAQS (CARB
2020; EPA 2021). The nonattainment status in the SCAB is the result of cumulative emissions from motor
vehicles, off-road equipment, commercial and industrial facilities, and other emission sources. Projects that
emit these pollutants or their precursors (e.g., VOC and NOx for O3,) potentially contribute to poor air quality.
The nonattainment status is the result of cumulative emissions from various sources of air pollutants and
their precursors within SCAB, including motor vehicles, off-road equipment, and commercial and industrial
facilities. Construction and operation of the proposed project would generate VOC and NOx emissions
(which are precursors to O3) and emissions of PM10 and PM2.5. However, as indicated in Section 3.3(b),
project-generated operational emissions, would not exceed the SCAQMD emission-based significance
thresholds for VOCs, NOx, PM10, or PM2.5. Accordingly, the proposed project would result in a less-than-
significant impact regarding contribution to cumulative air quality impacts. In addition, as discussed in
Section 3.3(a), the proposed project would not exceed growth projections anticipated in the SCAQMD’s
2016 AQMP. Accordingly, the proposed project would not result in a cumulatively considerable contribution
to the nonattainment pollutants in the SCAB, and this impact would be less than significant.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with contributing to a cumulatively considerable net
increase of any criteria pollutant would occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified
in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
d) Would the project expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan EIR found that impacts associated
with exposing sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations would be less than significant.
Localized Significance Thresholds Analysis
The City Yards Master Plan EIR included a localized significance threshold (LST) to determine potential
impacts to nearby sensitive receptors during construction and operation of the City Yards Master Plan,
which was found to result in less-than-significant impacts.
The SCAQMD recommends a localized LST analysis to evaluate localized air quality impacts to sensitive
receptors in the immediate vicinity of the project as a result of proposed project activities. The impacts were
analyzed using methods consistent with those in the SCAQMD’s Final Localized Significance Threshold
Methodology (SCAQMD 2008a). The project is located within Source-Receptor Area 2 (Northwest Coastal
Los Angeles County). The nearest off-site sensitive receptor to the City Yards is a mobile home park, which
is located adjacent to the east of the proposed transfer facility relocation site. As such, the LST receptor
distance was assumed to be 25 meters (82 feet), which is the shortest distance provided by the SCAQMD
lookup tables, and a 1-acre construction site was assumed, which is the smallest construction area
provided by the SCAQMD lookup tables.

13898 31 MAY 2022
Project construction activities would result in temporary sources of on-site criteria air pollutant emissions
associated with off-road equipment exhaust and fugitive dust generation. According to the Final Localized
Significance Threshold Methodology, “off-site mobile emissions from the project should not be included in
the emissions compared to the LSTs” (SCAQMD 2008a). Trucks and worker trips associated with the
proposed project are not expected to cause substantial air quality impacts to sensitive receptors along off-
site roadways since emissions would be relatively brief in nature and would cease once the vehicles pass
through the main streets. Therefore, off-site emissions from trucks and worker vehicle trips are not included
in the LST analysis. The maximum daily on-site emissions generated during construction of the proposed
project in 2022 are presented in Table 4 and are compared to the SCAQMD localized significance criteria
for Source-Receptor Area 2 to determine whether project-generated on-site emissions would result in
potential LST impacts.
Because LST analyses are localized in nature, project-generated activities and associated emissions at
different parts of the site would likely affect different off-site receptors. However, to provide a conservative
analysis, estimated on-site emissions from the proposed project changes are added to the on-site
emissions estimated in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, as shown in Table 4.

Localized significance thresholds are shown for a 1-acre disturbed area corresponding to a distance to a sensitive receptor of 25

As shown in Table 4, proposed construction activities would not generate emissions in excess of site-specific
LSTs; therefore, localized construction impacts of the proposed project would be less than significant.
Regarding operational emissions, the proposed tip and transfer activities would include minor on-site
sources of emissions from the operation of off-road equipment. There would be no operational emissions
generated by the sound wall or relocated fire lane. As with the construction LST analysis, estimated on-site
emissions from the proposed project were conservatively added to estimated on-site emissions from the
City Yards Master Plan EIR; the results are shown in Table 5.

Localized significance thresholds are shown for a 1-acre disturbed area corresponding to a distance to a sensitive receptor of 25

As shown in Table 5, proposed operational activities would not generate emissions in excess of site-specific
LSTs; therefore, localized operational impacts of the proposed project would be less than significant.
As such, the proposed project’s construction and operational activity in relation to the SCAQMD LST thresholds
would not result in more severe impacts that what was assessed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR.
Toxic Air Contaminants
Toxic air contaminants (TACs) are defined as substances that may cause or contribute to an increase in
deaths or in serious illness, or which may pose a present or potential hazard to human health. The nearest
sensitive receptor to the project area is the mobile home park located approximately 35 feet from the
proposed construction boundary. Health effects from carcinogenic air toxics are usually described in terms
of cancer risk. The SCAQMD recommends an incremental cancer risk threshold of 10 in 1 million.
Incremental cancer risk is the net increased likelihood that a person continuously exposed to
concentrations of TACs resulting from a project over a 30-year exposure for individual receptors will contract
cancer based on the use of standard Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment risk-assessment
methodology. In addition, some TACs have non-carcinogenic effects. The SCAQMD recommends a Hazard
Index of 1 or more for acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) effects.2 TACs that would be potentially
emitted during demolition and construction activities associated with project development would be
asbestos and diesel particulate matter.
2 Non-cancer adverse health risks are measured against a hazard index, which is defined as the ratio of the predicted incremental
exposure concentrations of the various non-carcinogens from the project to published reference exposure levels that can cause
adverse health effects.

The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan would result in minimal construction activity associated
with construction of the sound wall and would not require the extensive use of heavy-duty construction
equipment; thus, the proposed project would result in minimal TACs during construction compared with
what was previously analyzed within the City Yards Master Plan EIR. With regard to operations, the proposed
project would not introduce any new long-term sources of TACs. Therefore, the proposed project is not
anticipated to result in substantially more severe impacts on sensitive receptors (health risk) than what
was assessed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR.
Health Impacts of Carbon Monoxide
Traffic-congested roadways and intersections have the potential to generate localized high levels of CO.
Localized areas where ambient concentrations exceed federal and/or state standards for CO are termed
CO “hotspots.” CO transport is extremely limited and disperses rapidly with distance from the source. Under
certain extreme meteorological conditions, however, CO concentrations near a congested roadway or
intersection may reach unhealthy levels, affecting sensitive receptors such as residents, schoolchildren,
hospital patients, and the elderly. Typically, high CO concentrations are associated with severely congested
intersections operating at an unacceptable level of service (level of service E or worse). Projects contributing
to adverse traffic impacts may result in the formation of a CO hotspot. However, because of continued
improvement in mobile emissions at a rate faster than the rate of vehicle growth and/or congestion, the
potential for CO hotspots in the basin is steadily decreasing (CARB 2005). The project is not anticipated to
generate a net increase in vehicle trips compared to current or historical conditions, as explained in
Section 3.3(b). Therefore, the project would not contribute to potential adverse traffic impacts that may
result in the formation of CO hotspots.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with exposure of sensitive receptors to substantial
pollutant concentrations would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in
the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.
e) Would the project create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan EIR found that the City
Yards Master Plan’s impacts associated with creating objectionable odors would be less than significant.
Land uses and industrial operations associated with odor complaints include agricultural uses, wastewater
treatment plants, food-processing plants, chemical plants, composting, refineries, landfills, dairies, and
fiberglass molding (SCAQMD 1993). The proposed project entails the continued operation of the City Yards
Site and includes various industrial uses, including relocation of the transfer facility. The transfer facility
would only accept dry material including cardboard, papers, bottles, and construction debris and in general,
the materials would not sit for longer than 24 hours before being taken offsite. Although the tip and transfer
activities would be closer to the mobile home park, the odors generated by the tip and transfer activities
exist under historical conditions at the SCD lot.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with objectionable odors would occur, the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.

result in the following:
Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and the adjacent SCD lot. As analyzed in the EIR, the City is largely
urbanized and does not contain suitable habitat for sensitive species or special-status species. The
principal vegetation within the City consists of landscaping and cultivated species (ornamentals) with some
invasive, weedy, non-native species.
3.A.e
Packet Pg. 170 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 36 MAY 2022
The City Yards Site has been fully developed for more than 50 years and does not have suitable habitat for
native vegetation and sensitive wildlife species. Additionally, the City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot are
currently developed with buildings, surface parking areas, and very limited landscaping. As a result, no
suitable habitat for sensitive species exists on the site, and there would be no impact to sensitive wildlife.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with candidate, sensitive, or special-status species
would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Site EIR;
no new mitigation measures are required.
b) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and the adjacent SCD lot. The City Yards Site and SCD lot are
located entirely on disturbed and developed land and have been developed for more than 50 years. No
riparian habitat or a sensitive natural community are present within the City Yards Site, and as such, no
impacts to riparian or sensitive vegetation communities would occur.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with riparian or sensitive vegetation communities
would occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan
EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
c) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. The City Yards Site and SCD lot do not
support any aquatic resources regulated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or California Department of
Fish and Wildlife as jurisdictional wetlands, waters of the United States, or waters of the state. Based on
review of the U.S. Geological Survey 7.5-minute series Beverly Hills Quadrangle Topographic Map, the City
does not contain any blue-line streams or wetland habitats (USGS 2015).
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with federally protected wetlands would occur, the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new
mitigation measures are required.
d) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan, including the proposed
changes, occurs entirely within the City. Although some local movement of wildlife is expected to occur within
the City, the City is not recognized as an existing or proposed Significant Ecological Area that links migratory
populations, as designated by Los Angeles County (Los Angeles County Department of Regional Planning
2015). The City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot are located within a highly urbanized area and would not

ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 37 MAY 2022
interfere with the movement of any native residents, migratory fish, or wildlife species. As such, development
of the proposed project would have no impact on the migratory movement of any wildlife species.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with migratory fish or wildlife species would occur,
and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new
mitigation measures are required.
e) Would the project conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a
tree preservation policy or ordinance?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. Implementation of the City Yards Master Plan, including
the proposed changes, would be subject to all applicable federal, state, regional, and local policies and
regulations related to the protection of biological resources. Specifically, the proposed project would be
required to comply with the federal Endangered Species Act, federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act, California
Endangered Species Act, California Fish and Game Code, and the SMMC, Chapter 7.40 Tree Code. However,
the existing site is developed with industrial uses and would not support nesting species. With compliance
with federal, state, and local policies or regulations, no impacts would occur.
Therefore, following compliance with the federal Endangered Species Act, federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act,
California Endangered Species Act, California Fish and Game Code, and the SMMC, no new or more severe
impacts associated with local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources would occur, and the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new
mitigation measures are required.
f) Would the project conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural
Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As analyzed in the EIR, there are no habitat conservation
plans, natural community conservation plans, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat
conservation plans that apply to the City. Consequently, the proposed project, inclusive of the changes,
would not conflict with the provisions of an adopted habitat conservation plan or natural community
conservation plan.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with biological resources would occur, and the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation measures
are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR did not require any mitigation measures related to biological resources.

V. CONSTRUCTION EFFECTS – Would the project:
a) Have considerable construction-period
impacts due to the scope, or location
or construction activities?
Previous Significance Determination
The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined that development in accordance with the City Yards Master Plan would
result in the following:
a) Would the project have considerable construction-period impacts due to the scope, or location of construction
activities? (Less-Than-Significant Impact with Mitigation Incorporated)
Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project have considerable construction-period impacts due to the scope, or location of
construction activities?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan, including the proposed
changes, would be constructed in phases over an approximately 9-year period. The duration of the majority
of construction phases would be greater than 1 year, and activities during phases would generally be
concentrated in a specific area of the City Yards Site. Throughout the various phases, construction activities
would typically occur during hours permitted by the City’s Noise Ordinance (Chapter 4.12 of the SMMC). It
is anticipated that construction activities would occur up to 8 hours per day, 5 days per week.
The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a
new sound wall, and relocation of fire lane) would result in minimal construction activities since existing
facilities would be utilized for the transfer and processing facility. Construction activities would be limited
to the sound wall and minor grading, paving, and striping for the fire lane.
The City Yards Master Plan EIR concluded that construction effects of the City Yards Master Plan would not
result in significant impacts after mitigation. The major impacts associated with construction analyzed in
the City Yards Master Plan include aesthetics, air quality, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, and
transportation and circulation. As such, the potential for the proposed changes to result in new or more
significant impacts is further discussed in Sections 3.1, Aesthetics/Shadows; 3.3, Air Quality; 3.9, Hazards
and Hazardous Materials; 3.14, Noise; and 3.18, Transportation and Circulation. As discussed herein, the
proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan would not result in new or more severe impacts related to
aesthetics, air quality, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, and transportation and circulation. For
further details, refer to each individual resource section.

Therefore, with implementation of Mitigation Measure (MM) HAZ-1 through MM-HAZ-4, MM-NOI-1, no new or
more severe impacts associated with construction effects would occur, the level of impact would not change
from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with construction effects would occur, and the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation measures
are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR required the following applicable mitigation measures related to construction effects,
which remain applicable:
MM-HAZ-1 (See Section 3.9)
MM-HAZ-2 (See Section 3.9)

Previous Significance Determination
The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined that development in accordance with the City Yards Master Plan would
result in the following:
Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as defined
in Section 15064.5?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan
(specifically, the relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of fire
lane) would not result in the additional demolition of existing structures, other than the demolition already
assessed within the City Yards Master Plan EIR. The City Yards, the adjacent property, and all associated
buildings and structures were found not eligible under all National Register of Historic Places, California
Register of Historical Resources, and City designation criteria.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with historical resources would occur, and the level
of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation
measures are required.
b) Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource
pursuant to Section 15064.5?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and the adjacent SCD lot. Furthermore, the proposed changes to
the City Yards Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and
relocation of fire lane) would not construct new buildings and construction activities would be limited to
those required for the sound wall.
As analyzed in the EIR, no archaeological resources were identified within or adjacent to the City Yards Site
as a result of the California Historical Resources Information System records search, Native American
Heritage Commission Sacred Lands File search, or the Native American coordination efforts conducted for
the City Yards Master Plan EIR. Therefore, no new or more severe impacts to archaeological resources
would occur and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan
EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.

ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 41 MAY 2022
c) Would the project directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic feature?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. The proposed changes to the City Yards
Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of fire lane)
would not construct new buildings and construction activities would be limited to those required for the
sound wall.
As analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, paleontological records search performed by the Los Angeles
County History Museum and desktop geographical review did not identify any known fossil localities on the
City Yards Site or on the SCD lot. The City Yards Site is located within an area that has been previously
developed and is underlain by fill materials, at least in part due to the former landfill. As such, the City Yards
Site is unlikely to be underlain by unique geological features. Although the project area has been heavily
disturbed by urban development over the years, intact paleontological resources may be present below the
original layer of fill material. Given the proximity of the site to past fossil discoveries and due to their
relatively shallow depths, the City Yards Site is moderately to highly sensitive for supporting paleontological
resources. Because ground-disturbing activities associated with construction of the proposed project have
the potential to destroy a unique paleontological resource or site, implementation of MM-CUL-1 would be
required to reduce impacts.
Therefore, with incorporation of MM-CUL-1, no new or more severe impacts to paleontological resources
would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master
Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.
d) Would the project disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of
formal cemeteries?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. The proposed changes to the City Yards
Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of fire lane)
would not involve the construction of new buildings and construction activities would be limited to those
required for the sound wall. As analyzed in the EIR, the site is already developed; no human remains or
cemeteries are anticipated to be disturbed during earthmoving activities. However, existing regulations
through California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 et seq. state that if human remains are
discovered during project construction, no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coroner has
made the necessary findings as to origin. Further, pursuant to California Public Resources Code, Section
5097.98(b), remains shall be left in place and free from disturbance until a final decision as to the
treatment and disposition of the remains has been made. If the County Coroner determines the remains to
be Native American, the Native American Heritage Commission shall be contacted within a reasonable time.
Subsequently, the Native American Heritage Commission shall identify the most likely descendant. The
most likely descendant shall then make recommendations and engage in consultations concerning the
treatment of the remains as provided in California Public Resources Code, Section 5097.98. Given the very
low potential for human remains on the project site and required compliance with existing regulations
pertaining to the discovery of human remains, the proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes
would result in less than-significant-impacts to human remains.

Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with disturbance of human remains would occur, the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new
mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with cultural resources would occur, and the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation measures
are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR required the following mitigation measure related to cultural resources, which
remain applicable:
MM-CUL-1 Prior to commencement of any grading activity on site, the City shall retain a qualified
paleontologist. The qualified paleontologist shall attend the preconstruction meeting and be on site
during all rough grading and other significant ground-disturbing activities in previously undisturbed
older Quaternary alluvial deposits, if encountered. These deposits may be encountered at depths
as shallow as 5 feet below ground surface. In the event that paleontological resources (e.g., fossils)
are unearthed during grading, the paleontology monitor will temporarily halt and/or divert grading
activity to allow recovery of paleontological resources. According to the 2010 Society of Vertebrate
Paleontology guidelines, a qualified paleontology monitor is defined as having (equivalent
experience acceptable as appropriate):
A BS or BA degree in geology or paleontology and one year experience monitoring in
the state or geologic province of the specific project. An associate degree and/or
demonstrated experience showing ability to recognize fossils in a biostratigraphic
context and recover vertebrate fossils in the field may be substituted for a degree.
An undergraduate degree in geology or paleontology is preferable, but is less
important than documented experience performing paleontological monitoring.
The area of discovery will be roped off with a 25-foot-radius buffer. Once documentation and
collection of the find is completed, the monitor will remove the rope and allow grading to
recommence in the area of the find. Finally, the paleontologist shall prepare a Paleontological
Resources Impact Mitigation Program (PRIMP) for the proposed project. The PRIMP shall be
consistent with the 2010 guidelines of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology.

of a known fault? Refer to Division of Mines and Geology Special Publication 42.
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. Thus, the seismic characteristics of the City Yards
Site would remain unchanged as that discussed in the EIR, and the design, construction, or operation of
the proposed changes would not affect the seismic risks of the site such as fault rupture.
As analyzed in the EIR, the City Yards Site is not located within an Alquist-Priolo Fault Zone (CGS 2018). The
nearest such zone, located approximately 3,000 feet north of the project site, is associated with the Santa
Monica Fault. The risk of fault rupture in the immediate vicinity of the project site is low. The proposed
project inclusive of the proposed changes would not directly or indirectly cause or exacerbate existing fault
rupture risks. There are no faults known to cross underneath the City Yards Site or adjacent SCD lot.

Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with fault rupture would occur, and the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures
are required.
ii) Strong seismic ground shaking?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. The seismic characteristics of the City Yards
Site would remain unchanged from those discussed in the EIR. Furthermore, the proposed changes to the
City Yards Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation
of fire lane) would not include the construction of new buildings for occupancy and construction activities
would be limited to those required for the sound wall. Therefore, the design, construction, or operation of
the proposed changes would not affect the seismic risks of the site, such as ground shaking.
As analyzed in the EIR, the City is located in a seismically active area. Movement along major faults in proximity
to the City, as well as along buried blind thrust faults, can occur across the greater Los Angeles area. These
faults, as well as numerous other regional faults (e.g., San Andreas, San Fernando, and Whittier), are capable
of producing moderate to large earthquakes that could affect the City, including the project site. However, the
proposed project would be constructed in accordance with state and City building standards. As with all
development within the City, the proposed project is required to comply with the California Building Code (CBC)
and Santa Monica Building Code (SMBC). Proper engineering and compliance with Title 24 of the CBC and
the SMBC would ensure the maximum feasible protection of the buildings and occupants. The SMBC includes
requirements to ensure that new development does not cause or exacerbate geological and soil hazards,
including seismic ground shaking. Measures to minimize the risk of loss, injury, and death from the
construction of new buildings are included in the SMBC, with specific provisions for seismic design.
Additionally, the proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes would be required to meet seismic safety
and construction design criteria based on the site-specific recommendations of final geotechnical reports that
would be prepared for the construction of project buildings.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with strong seismic ground shaking would occur, and
the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new
mitigation measures are required.
iii) Seismic-related ground failure, including liquefaction?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. Thus, the seismic characteristics of the City
Yards Site would remain unchanged as that discussed in the EIR. Furthermore, the proposed changes to
the City Yards Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and
relocation of fire lane) would not include the construction of new buildings for occupancy and construction
activities would be limited to those required for the sound wall. Therefore, the design, construction, or
operation of the proposed changes would not affect the seismic risks, including liquefaction, of the site.
As part of the City Yards Master Plan EIR, a site-specific liquefaction analysis was performed, using a mean
earthquake magnitude of 6.8 and a peak ground acceleration of 0.78 g (percent of gravity), using the U.S.
Seismic Hazard Design Maps Tool. Based on the historical highest groundwater level of approximately

40 feet below ground surface, the underlying soils would not be prone to liquefaction and associated lateral
spreading during the ground motion expected during a major seismic event. Furthermore, as with all
development within the City, the proposed project is required to comply with the CBC and SMBC. The SMBC
includes requirements to ensure that new development does not cause or exacerbate geological and soil
hazards, including seismic ground shaking and seismically related ground failure. Measures to minimize
the risk of loss, injury, and death from the construction of new buildings are included in the SMBC, with
specific provisions for seismic design. Additionally, the proposed project would be required to meet the
most recent seismic safety building criteria and construction design recommendations of the site-specific
final geotechnical reports that would be prepared for the construction of project buildings. The proposed
project, inclusive of the proposed changes, would not directly or indirectly cause or exacerbate adverse
effects involving seismic-related ground failure.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with seismic-related ground failure would occur, and
the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new
mitigation measures are required.
iv) Landslides?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. Thus, the geologic characteristics of the City
Yards Site would remain unchanged from those discussed in the EIR. Furthermore, the proposed changes to
the City Yards Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation
of fire lane) would not include the construction of additional new buildings for occupancy and construction
activities would be limited to those required for the sound wall. Therefore, the design, construction, or
operation of the proposed changes would not affect the geologic risks of the site.
As analyzed in the EIR, the likelihood of a landslide is low due to the relatively flat topography at the City
Yards Site. Additionally, there are no significant hillsides or unstable slopes within the vicinity of the City
Yards Site. According to the Seismic Hazards Zone Map for the Beverly Hills Quadrangle, the City Yards Site
is not identified as susceptible to landslides (CGS 2015). Similarly, the City Yards Site and the SCD lot are
not located within a City-designated High Landslide Potential Area (City of Santa Monica 1995). Due to
these site conditions, the proposed project, inclusive of the proposed changes, would not expose people or
structures to adverse risks associated with landslides.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with landslides would occur, the level of impact would not
change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
b) Would the project result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Site and the SCD lot are developed with
existing structures and paved areas. As analyzed in the EIR, implementation of the City Yards Master Plan
would not result in exposed areas of soil/land that could be subject to erosion. The proposed changes to
the City Yards Master Plan would not result in significant new erosion impacts as construction activities
would be limited to those required for the sound wall. Temporary erosion could occur during grading and
excavation activities. However, since implementation of the City Yards Master Plan would disturb greater
than 1 acre of land, the construction contractor is required to prepare and comply with a stormwater

pollution prevention plan (SWPPP), which would provide erosion-control measures. Additionally,
Section 7010.060 of the SMMC requires construction-phase erosion-control measures to reduce erosion-
related impacts (City of Santa Monica 2021).
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with soil erosion or the loss of topsoil would occur,
the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new
mitigation measures are required.
c) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan
are located within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. The geologic characteristics of the City
Yards Site would remain unchanged from those discussed in the EIR. Furthermore, the proposed changes
to the City Yards Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and
relocation of fire lane) would not involve the construction of new buildings and construction activities would
be limited to those required for the sound wall. Therefore, the design, construction, or operation of the
proposed changes would not increase the geologic risks of the site.
The feasibility-level geotechnical report for the City Yards Site (Geotechnologies Inc. 2016) states that the
primary geotechnical concern for the development of the site is settlement of refuse landfill, but that
construction of the proposed structures is considered feasible from a geotechnical engineering standpoint.
Compliance with the design measures in the site-specific final geotechnical reports (which are required as
part of the plan check process) would ensure that the proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes
would be designed and constructed to mitigate risks associated with highly compressible/unstable soils.
As such, impacts would be less than significant.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with unstable geologic units/soils would occur, the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new
mitigation measures are required.
d) Would the project be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18-1-B of the Uniform Building
Code (1994), creating substantial direct or indirect risks to life or property?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. Thus, the geologic characteristics of the
City Yards Site would remain unchanged from those discussed in the EIR. Furthermore, the proposed
changes to the City Yards Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall,
and relocation of fire lane) would not involve the construction of new buildings for occupancy and
construction activities would be limited to those required for the sound wall. Therefore, the design,
construction, or operation of the proposed changes would not increase the expansive soil risks of the site.
Based on site-specific geotechnical investigations, on-site geologic materials are in the very low to moderate
expansion range. The ability of moderately expansive clays to change volume could result in uplift or
cracking of concrete foundations, sidewalks, or other hardscapes, in the absence of proper geotechnical
engineering. In addition, as with all development in the City, the proposed project is required to comply with
3.A.e
Packet Pg. 182 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 48 MAY 2022
the SMBC. Measures to minimize the risk of expansive soils on building foundations are included in the
CBC. Although the City Yards Site overlies moderately expansive soils, compliance with the design measures
in the site-specific final geotechnical reports (which are required as part of the plan check process) will
ensure that project design and construction would not pose risks to life or property due to potentially
expansive soils. As such, impacts would be less than significant.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with expansive soils would occur, and the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation
measures are required.
e) Would the project have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative
waste water disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of waste water?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. New buildings to be constructed under the City Yards
Master Plan would connect directly to the municipal sanitary sewer system, nor would they require septic
tanks or any other alternative wastewater disposal system. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master
Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of fire lane) would not
involve the construction of new buildings that would require additional wastewater disposal.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with the adequacy of soils and septic systems would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with geology and soils would occur, and the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation measures are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR did not require any mitigation measures related to geology and soils.

Previous Significance Determination
The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined that development in accordance with the City Yards Master Plan would
result in the following:
a) Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the
environment? (Less-Than-Significant Impact)
b) Conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of
greenhouse gases? (Less-Than-Significant Impact)
Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a
significant impact on the environment?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan EIR found that impacts
associated with generation of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions would be less than significant.
GHGs are gases that absorb infrared radiation in the atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is a natural process
that contributes to regulating the Earth’s temperature. Global climate change concerns are focused on
whether human activities are leading to an enhancement of the greenhouse effect. Principal GHGs include
carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, nitrous oxide, O3, and water vapor. The effect each GHG has on climate
change is measured as a combination of the mass of its emissions and the potential of a gas or aerosol to
trap heat in the atmosphere, known as its global warming potential, which varies among GHGs. Total GHG
emissions are expressed as a function of how much warming would be caused by the same mass of CO2.
Thus, GHG emissions are typically measured in terms of metric tons (MT) of CO2 equivalent (CO2e). Global
climate change is a cumulative impact; a project participates in this potential impact through its incremental
contribution combined with the cumulative increase of all other sources of GHGs (CNRA 2009).
The proposed project includes relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a sound wall on the Hanson
lot that extends from the existing wall on the SCD lot, and relocation of the fire lane. Construction
assumptions are presented in Section 3.3. Table 6 presents the estimated annual construction emissions
generated during construction of the proposed project changes (relocation of the transfer facility,
construction of a sound wall on the Hanson lot, and relocation of the fire lane) and the estimated annual
construction emissions from the City Yards Master Plan EIR.

As shown in Table 6, the proposed project changes would generate a total of approximately 44 MT CO2e
during construction, and when added to the construction emissions estimated in the City Yards Master Plan
EIR of approximately 2,519 MT CO2e, would total approximately 2,563 MT CO2e.
Per the SCAQMD guidance, construction emissions should be amortized over the operational life of the
proposed project, which is assumed to be 30 years (SCAQMD 2008b). Amortized construction emissions
are estimated to be approximately 85 MT CO2e and are discussed under Operational Impacts, below.
Operation of the City Yards Master Plan, as assessed in the EIR, would result in GHG emissions through
area sources; energy use (natural gas and generation of electricity consumed by the project); solid waste
disposal; water supply, treatment, and distribution and wastewater treatment; stationary sources
(emergency generators); off-road equipment (forklifts); and fire department training. Notably, it was
assumed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR that motor vehicle trips would be reduced due to the removal of
the Santa Monica Recycling Center/buy-back center.
Operation of the proposed project changes assessed in this addendum is anticipated to generate minimal
GHG emissions from off-road equipment and potential energy use from lighting (electricity); no area
sources, mobile source, solid waste, water and wastewater, or stationary source emissions are anticipated.
The project is not anticipated to generate a net increase in vehicle trips from employees or trucks as
explained in Section 3.3(b).
Table 7 presents the estimated operational GHG emissions associated with the operation of the proposed
project changes (transfer facility relocation, year 2022) plus operation of the City Yards Master Plan Project
as evaluated in the City Yards Master Plan EIR (year 2028) and estimated existing emissions in 2019 as
evaluated in the City Yards Master Plan EIR to estimate the net change in GHG emissions. Details of the
emission calculations are provided in Appendix A.

GHG emissions from the City Yards Master Plan EIR are based on the “mitigated” CalEEMod outputs to incorporate water reduction
consistent with California Green Building Standards (CALGreen) and compliance with the City of Santa Monica’s Zero Waste goal of
85% by 2025. Because the traffic analysis determined that the proposed project would result in a minimal increase in vehicle trips to
the project site, mobile emissions were not quantified.
Table 7 indicates that the net GHG emissions associated with development of the City Yards Master Plan,
including the proposed project, would be below the SCAQMD GHG threshold of 10,000 MT CO2e per year.
Overall, the City Yards Master Plan would result in net operational emissions of approximately 957 MT
CO2e, with the proposed project accounting for approximately 270 MT CO2e per year from operation.
Therefore, no new or more severe long-term operational impacts associated with the generation of GHG
emissions would occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards
Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
b) Would the project generate conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose
of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan EIR found that the City Yards
Master Plan would not conflict with any applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of
reducing GHG emissions.
At the time the City Yards Master Plan EIR was prepared, the City of Santa Monica 15×15 Climate Action Plan
(CAP), published in February 2013, was the applicable GHG reduction plan (City of Santa Monica 2016). The
CAP was developed to meet the City’s previous target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions 15% below 1990
levels by the end of 2015. The 15×15 CAP identified 15 objectives and 34 actions to be completed by the end
of fiscal year 2015. As indicated in the City’s published Final Report for the 15×15 CAP, the City exceeded this
target by the end of 2015, achieving a 20% reduction from 1990 levels by reducing 35,592 MT CO2e, with 46%
of the 15 objectives met and 55% of the 34 actions completed (City of Santa Monica 2016). Significant
reductions were achieved through residential and commercial energy efficiency, solid waste diversion, and
focusing new development around mass transit. The City Yards Master Plan was determined to not conflict with
any of the GHG reducing measures or goals. Because the proposed project would include the relocation of the
existing transfer facility, which would involve minimal construction activity associated with development of a
sound wall, the proposed project would also not conflict with the CAP.
Furthermore, the City was in the process of developing a Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP) to achieve
carbon neutrality by 2050, as well as to develop measures to adapt and prepare for unavoidable climate
change impacts, when the City Yards Master Plan EIR was adopted. The CAAP was adopted in May 2019 (City
of Santa Monica 2019). The CAAP establishes an interim goal of reducing carbon emissions 80% below 1990
3.A.e
Packet Pg. 187 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 53 MAY 2022
levels by 2030 to build momentum to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 or sooner. The CAAP focuses on
eight objectives in three sectors: zero net carbon buildings, zero waste, and sustainable mobility. The CAAP
also lays out a framework for increasing Santa Monica’s resilience to climate change through four sectors:
climate ready community, water self-sufficiency, coastal flooding preparedness, and low carbon food and
ecosystems. The CAAP identifies areas in local government, community building, and support to augment by
including climate change considerations and adaptation measures (City of Santa Monica 2019). As previously
discussed, the changes to the proposed project would relocate the existing transfer facility to existing City
Yards facilities and does not include the construction of new buildings and would result in minimal GHG
emissions as shown in Table 7. Accordingly, the proposed project would not conflict with the CAAP.
As explained in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, at the regional level, SCAG has adopted the 2016–2040
Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS) for the purpose of reducing
GHG emissions attributable to passenger vehicles in the City and surrounding areas. Since the EIR was
adopted, SCAG adopted the 2020–2045 RTP/SCS in September 2021. In addition to demonstrating the
region’s ability to attain the GHG emission-reduction targets set forth by CARB, the 2020–2045 RTP/SCS
outlines a series of actions and strategies for integrating the transportation network with an overall land
use pattern that responds to projected growth, housing needs, changing demographics, and transportation
demands (SCAG 2020). Although the RTP/SCS does not regulate land use or supersede the exercise of
land use authority by SCAG’s member jurisdictions (e.g., the City), the RTP/SCS is a relevant regional
reference document for purposes of evaluating the connection of land use and transportation patterns and
the corresponding GHG emissions. The RTP/SCS is not directly applicable to the proposed project because
the underlying purpose of the RTP/SCS is to provide direction and guidance on future regional growth (i.e.,
the location of new residential and non-residential land uses) and transportation patterns throughout the
region, as stipulated under Senate Bill 375. The proposed project would involve redevelopment and
renovation of existing facilities at the City Yards. Additionally, the proposed project would result in no net
increase in vehicle trips to the project site. As such, the project would not conflict with the goals and policies
of the RTP/SCS.
The Scoping Plan, approved by CARB on in 2008 and updated in 2014 and 2017, provides a framework
for actions to reduce California’s GHG emissions and requires CARB and other state agencies to adopt
regulations and other initiatives to reduce GHGs (CARB 2017). As such, the Scoping Plan is not directly
applicable to specific projects. Under the Scoping Plan, however, there are several state regulatory
measures aimed at the identification and reduction of GHG emissions. CARB and other state agencies have
adopted many of the measures identified in the Scoping Plan. Most of these measures focus on area source
emissions (e.g., energy usage, high global warming potential GHGs in consumer products) and changes to
the vehicle fleet (e.g., hybrid, electric, and more fuel-efficient vehicles) and associated fuels (e.g., Low
Carbon Fuel Standard), among others. To the extent that these regulations are applicable to the proposed
project, the proposed project would comply with all regulations adopted in furtherance of the Scoping Plan
to the extent required by law.
Regarding consistency with Senate Bill 32 (goal of reducing GHG emissions to 40% below 1990 levels by
2030) and Executive Order S-3-05 (goal of reducing GHG emissions to 80% below 1990 levels by 2050),
there are no established protocols or thresholds of significance for that future-year analysis. However, CARB
has expressed optimism with regard to both the 2030 and 2050 goals. It states in the First Update to the
Climate Change Scoping Plan: Building on the Framework that “California is on track to meet the near-term
2020 GHG emissions limit and is well-positioned to maintain and continue reductions beyond 2020 as
3.A.e

required by AB [Assembly Bill] 32” (CARB 2014). CARB believes that the state is on a trajectory to meet the
2030 and 2050 GHG reduction targets set forth in Assembly Bill 32, Senate Bill 32, and Executive Order
S- 3-05. The proposed project would not interfere with implementation of GHG reduction goals for 2030 or
2050 because it would not exceed the SCAQMD’s recommended threshold of 10,000 MT CO2e per year for
industrial projects. Because the project would not exceed these thresholds, this analysis provides support
for the conclusion that the project would not impede the state’s trajectory toward the previously described
statewide GHG reduction goals for 2030 or 2050.
Therefore, no new or more severe long-term operational impacts associated with applicable GHG reduction
plans, policies, or regulations would occur; the level of impact would not change from the level identified in
the City Yards Master Plan EIR; and no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with GHG emissions would occur, and the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation measures are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR did not require any mitigation measures related to GHG emissions.

The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined that development in accordance with City Yards Master Plan would
result in the following:

ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 56 MAY 2022
Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine
transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials?
and
b) Would 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?
Short-Term Construction Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan, including the proposed
changes, would be constructed in phases over an approximately 9-year period. The duration of the majority
of construction phases would be greater than 1 year, and activities during phases would generally be
concentrated in a specific area of the City Yards Site. Throughout the various phases a variety of hazardous
substances and wastes would be transported to and stored, used, and handled on the City Yards Site.
Use of Hazardous Materials
As analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, construction activities on the City Yards Site would involve
the use and storage of a variety of hazardous materials, including fuel, oil, grease, solvents, and paints.
These materials would be handled, stored, used, and disposed of in accordance with all federal, state, and
local laws regulating the management and use of hazardous materials. Improper handling and/or use of
these materials during construction would represent a potential risk to the public and the environment.
Construction contractors are responsible for accident prevention and containment, and construction
specifications typically include provisions to properly manage hazardous substances and wastes. All
contractors are required to comply with applicable regulations and Occupational Safety and Health
Administration guidelines regarding the transport, use, and disposal of hazardous materials and hazardous
waste. Examples of hazardous materials management include providing completely enclosed containment
for all refuse generated in the planning area. In addition, all construction waste, including trash, litter,

Packet Pg. 191 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 57 MAY 2022
garbage, solid waste, petroleum products, and any other potentially hazardous materials, would be
removed and transported to a permitted waste facility for treatment, storage, and/or disposal. Compliance
with applicable regulations and Occupational Safety and Health Administration guidelines would ensure
that proper use and disposal of these materials would not pose a significant risk to the public and the
environment. In addition, the proposed project (inclusive of the proposed changes) would be required to
comply with the Construction General Permit. This will require preparation of a SWPPP and development of
best management practices (BMPs) for potential pollutants created by all phase of construction activity. As
a result, the use of these hazardous materials for their intended use would not pose a significant threat.
Lead-Based Paint and Asbestos
The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a
new sound wall, and relocation of fire lane) would not result in the demolition of any additional structures.
As such, there would be no additional demolition of existing structures, other than the demolition already
assessed within the City Yards Master Plan EIR. The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined implementation
of MM-HAZ-1 would be required to reduce potential impacts associated with exposure to asbestos and lead-
based paint.
Contaminated Soils
The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent
SCD lot. The characteristics of the subsurface soils underlying the project area would remain unchanged
from those discussed in the EIR, and as such, no new or more severe impacts associated with contaminated
soils would occur. The City Yards Site is listed as a leaking underground storage tank closed cleanup site
case due to impacts from former leaking tanks and has four existing permitted underground storage tanks
(USTs). Therefore, MM-HAZ-2 is required to reduce impacts from potentially contaminated soils through
preparation of a hazardous materials contingency plan.
Former Clay Pit and Landfill
The City Yards Site is located over a former clay pit and landfill. The only new construction associated with
the relocation of the transfer facility would be the sound wall and it is not proposed in the landfill area. Thus,
the characteristics of the subsurface soils underlying the site would remain unchanged from those discussed
in the EIR, and no new or more severe impacts associated with impact of the former landfill would occur. The
City Yards Master Plan would still be required to implement MM-HAZ-3 and MM-HAZ-4 to reduce potential for
gas flow impacts related to the removal of the existing landfill gas control system.
Therefore, with implementation of MM-HAZ-1 through MM-HAZ-4, no new or more severe short-term
construction impacts associated with creation of a hazard to the public or the environment due to
hazardous materials would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the
City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.
Long-Term Operational Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan would not result in a change
in the City’s operations at the site. The relocation of the transfer facility would not change the previous
determination made by the City Yards Master Plan EIR. The proposed sound wall would not result in new or
3.A.e
Packet Pg. 192 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 58 MAY 2022
more severe hazards or hazardous materials impacts. Routine operations at the City Yards Site would
continue to involve the storage, use, and disposal of various hazardous materials, including chemical
reagents, pesticides, solvents, fuels, paints, and cleansers. All hazardous materials generated and/or used
on the project property would be managed in accordance with all relevant federal, state, and local laws,
including the California Hazardous Waste Control Law (California Health and Safety Code Division 20,
Chapter 6.5), Occupational Safety and Health Administration Standards, and the Hazardous Waste Control
Regulations (22 CCR 4.5). Given compliance with these regulations, the transport, use, and disposal of
hazardous materials would not pose a significant hazard to the public or the environment.
Therefore, with implementation of MM-HAZ-1 through MM-HAZ-4, no new or more severe long-term
operational impacts associated with creation of a hazard to the public or the environment due to hazardous
materials would occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards
Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
c) Would the project emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials,
substances, or waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. Edison Language Academy is located at 2402 Virginia
Avenue, approximately 450 feet south of the City Yards Site across from I-10 (Santa Monica Freeway). As
discussed in Sections 3.9(a) and 3.9(b), construction and operations would result in the handling of
hazardous materials. The proposed changes would not result in any new or more severe impacts related to
the handling of hazardous materials. The relocation of the transfer facility would not change the previous
determination made by the City Yards Master Plan EIR with regard to operational hazards because the transfer
facility occurred under the existing conditions analyzed in the previously certified EIR. The construction of the
proposed sound wall would not result in operational impacts.
Therefore, with implementation of MM-HAZ-1 and MM-HAZ-2, no new or more severe impacts associated
with emitting or handling hazardous materials within 0.25 miles of a school would occur, the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.
d) Would the project be located on a site that 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The provisions in California Government Code Section
65962.5 are commonly referred to as the “Cortese List” (after the legislator who authored the legislation
that enacted it). The list, or a site’s presence on the list, has bearing on the local permitting process, as
well as on compliance with CEQA.
The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are located within the existing City Yards Site, analyzed
within the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and the adjacent SCD lot. The City Yards Site is listed in 22 regulatory
databases. Additionally, there were several generations of USTs at the City Yards Site. In total, 20 USTs
have been recorded at the site. Ten were removed in 1987, and six were removed in 1999. There are
currently four USTs permitted at the subject property (three 6,500-gallon USTs and one 6,000- gallon UST).
Diesel fuel is stored in two 6,500-gallon USTs; gasoline is stored in one 6,500-gallon UST and one 6,000-
3.A.e

gallon UST. Although the leaking underground storage tank case was closed in May 2013, there is the
possibility of residual contamination in place in soils, and there may be locations on the project site with
previously unidentified contamination.
Therefore, with implementation of MM-HAZ-2, no new or more severe impacts associated with hazardous
materials sites would occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards
Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
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 or excessive
noise for people residing or working in the project area?
and
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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. No private airstrips are located near the City Yards Site.
The City Yards Site is located in the vicinity of the Santa Monica Municipal Airport. The Santa Monica
Municipal Airport is located approximately 1.7 miles southeast of the project site. However, the City Yards
Site is not identified as being located within the Airport Influence Area for the Santa Monica Municipal
Airport (ALUC 2003). Furthermore, the City and the Federal Aviation Administration signed a settlement
agreement that will lead to the eventual closure of the Santa Monica Municipal Airport after 2028 (FAA
2017). The City Yards Site is approximately 6 miles from the Los Angeles International Airport and is not
within the Los Angeles International Airport Influence Area (ALUC 2003).
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with public airport and private airstrip hazards would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
g) Would the project impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response
plan or emergency evacuation plan?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan
(relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of fire lane) would not
include the construction of new buildings and construction activities that would impair an emergency
evacuation plan. Construction associated with the implementation of the proposed project (inclusive of the
proposed changes) could result in a temporary increase in construction in the area surrounding the City
Yards Site. The fire lane that currently bisects the Hanson lot would be moved to a location north of the
Hanson lot that connects to the fire access gate at the mobile home park. However, all access to local roads
would be maintained during construction of the proposed project; therefore, emergency access would be
ensured and would not interfere with an emergency evacuation plans.
Additionally, although implementation of the proposed project would result in a change in on-site
circulation, there would not be significant impacts to evacuation plans. New buildings would be developed
in accordance with the CBC and California Fire Code requirements that address building safety and
emergency exits.

ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 60 MAY 2022
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with emergency response or evacuation plans would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
h) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Site and SCD lot are located in an urbanized
portion of the City with surrounding commercial, residential, and industrial uses. The closest wildlands are north
of the City near the Will Rogers Historic State Park, approximately 6 miles away. Due to the intervening
development between the project site and Will Rogers Historic State Park, the proposed project inclusive of the
proposed change would not expose people or structures to wildland fires.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with wildland fires would occur, the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with hazards and hazardous materials would occur, and
the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation
measures are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR required the following applicable mitigation measures related to hazards and
hazardous materials, which remain applicable:
MM-HAZ-1 Prior to demolition or renovation of on-site buildings, a lead-based paint and asbestos survey
shall be conducted by a California Occupational Safety and Health Administration-certified
asbestos consultant and/or certified site surveillance technician and a California Department of
Public Health-certified lead inspector/risk assessor or sampling technician. A report
documenting material types, conditions, and general quantities shall be provided, along with
photos of positive materials and diagrams. Demolition or renovation plans and contract
specifications shall incorporate any abatement procedures for the removal of material containing
asbestos or lead-based paint. All abatement work shall be done in accordance with federal, state,
and local regulations.
MM-HAZ-2 A hazardous materials contingency plan shall be followed during demolition, excavation, and
construction activities for the proposed project. The hazardous materials contingency plan shall
include, at a minimum, the following:
▪ Identification of known and suspected areas with hazardous waste and/or hazardous materials
of concern
▪ Procedures for temporary cessation of construction activity and evaluation of the level of
environmental concern
▪ Procedures for restricting access to the contaminated area except for properly trained personnel
3.A.e

ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 61 MAY 2022
▪ Procedures for notification and reporting, including internal management and local agencies
(e.g., Santa Monica Fire Department, County of Los Angeles Fire Department), as needed
▪ Health and safety measures for removal and excavation of contaminated soil
▪ Procedures for characterizing and managing excavated soils
▪ Procedures for certification of completion of remediation
▪ Regulatory considerations
▪ Worker health and safety plan for management of contaminated materials
Site workers shall be familiar with the hazardous materials contingency plan and should be fully
trained on how to identify suspected contaminated soil.
MM-HAZ-3 Per South Coast Air Quality Management District Rule 1150, an excavation management plan
should be submitted for approval before excavation of a landfill. The excavation management plan
should include information regarding the quantity and characteristics of the material to be
excavated and transported, identify mitigation measures to be enacted as necessary during
excavation to ensure that a public nuisance condition does not occur (e.g., gas collection and
disposal, encapsulation, covering of the material, chemical neutralizing, or other measures), and
include provisions for immediate cessation of excavation activities if there is a public nuisance.
MM-HAZ-4 If construction activities would impact the landfill, prior to obtaining grading permits, soil shall be
sampled and analyzed for metals. Sampling shall be conducted in accordance with applicable
regulatory guidance documents. The soil testing will confirm the presence or absence of on-site
contamination associated with past uses on the project site. Any soil that exceeds applicable and
appropriate regulatory thresholds shall be delineated, remediated, and/or properly disposed of in
accordance with Los Angeles County Certified Unified Program Agency requirements.

Previous Significance Determination
The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined that development in accordance with the City Yards Master Plan would
result in the following:

ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT

Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements?
and
c) Would the project substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the
alteration of the course of a stream or river or through the addition of impervious surfaces, in a manner
which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site?
and
f) Would the project otherwise substantially degrade water quality?
Short-Term Construction Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. Project construction would include earthwork activities
that could potentially result in erosion, which subsequently could degrade downstream water quality and/or
violate water quality standards.
Surface Water Quality
Since the City Yards Master Plan, including the proposed changes, would result in more than 1 acre of
ground disturbance, the City Yards Master Plan would be required to comply with the National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System stormwater program’s Construction General Permit. The Construction
General Permit requires development and implementation of a SWPPP. Among the required items that
must be included in a SWPPP are project design features intended to protect against substantial soil
erosion as a result of water and wind erosion, commonly known as BMPs. Typical BMPs include diverting
off-site runoff away from the construction site, vegetating landscaped/vegetated swale areas, and placing
perimeter straw wattles to prevent off-site erosion transport. Incorporation of BMPs would reduce both
stormwater runoff and soil erosion impacts to acceptable levels, which would subsequently minimize the
opportunity for impacts to downstream receiving waters.
Groundwater Quality
As a result of the City Yards Site’s historic use as a City vehicle fueling and maintenance facility, VOCs have
been detected in groundwater underlying the site. Soil vapor extraction and air sparging were used at the
project site to remove VOCs from soil and groundwater, and the case was closed with respect to regulatory
oversight on May 16, 2013. In addition, chlorinated solvents have been detected in monitoring wells
installed in association with the former on-site landfill. However, these solvent concentrations in
groundwater appear to have been from off-site sources and not from the landfill. The landfill site was closed
with respect to regulatory oversight on August 27, 2012.
Based on a liquefaction assessment completed for the region, the historically highest groundwater level
beneath the site was approximately 40 feet below ground surface. In addition, geotechnical investigations
at the site have encountered perched groundwater at depths ranging from 29 to 57 feet. Based on this
depth to groundwater, it is unlikely that dewatering would be required during construction activities. Based
3.A.e
Packet Pg. 199 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 65 MAY 2022
on site closure regulatory status of the fueling facility and landfill, as well as the lack of groundwater
anticipated in proposed excavations, impacts associated with groundwater contamination beneath the site
would be less than significant.
Therefore, no new or more severe short-term construction impacts associated with water quality standards,
existing drainage patterns, or stormwater drainage system capacity would occur, and the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures
are required.
Long-Term Operational Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As proposed, the City intends to modernize City Yards
operations through the construction of new structures that would be similar in scale to existing structures.
However, the City Yards Master Plan would not result in a change in the City’s operations at the site. The
relocation of the transfer facility would not change the previous determination made by the City Yards Master
Plan EIR with regard to hydrology as the entire site including the retention of the transfer facility would be
subject to the City’s Urban Runoff Management Ordinance. The proposed sound wall would not alter drainage
and impact water quality. Additionally, the relocation of the fire lane would result in no change from the
existing conditions.
Under existing conditions, runoff from approximately 11.9 acres of the City Yards Site is discharged into the
sewer due to the industrial nature of the site and the water quality of the runoff. The City Yards Master Plan
would improve water quality as compared to existing conditions. Under the City Yards Master Plan, a
number of existing uncovered industrial-heavy uses and operations taking place outside would be
contained within new buildings and concentrated within a particular area of the City Yards Site. Further, the
City Yards Master Plan would include new open space/planted areas and vegetated swales, thus reducing
the area of potential polluted runoff.
In addition, in accordance with Low Impact Development requirements for urban runoff, the first 0.75
inches of stormwater runoff would be captured via a combination of catch basins, area drains, roof/trench
drains, and bioswales, and mechanically treated using methods such as Continuous Deflective Separator
Stormwater Treatment technology, before it flows to the county’s 45-inch storm drain line. Further, in
accordance with Chapter 7.10 of the SMMC, the City would be required to develop and implement a runoff
mitigation plan for the City Yards Site, which would specify BMPs and other measures to reduce polluted
runoff. Inclusion of BMPs per the runoff mitigation plan, in combination with compliance with existing
regulations, would minimize polluted runoff.
The relocation of the transfer facility would not change the previous determination made by the City Yards
Master Plan EIR with regard to hydrology as the entire site including the retention of the transfer facility would
be subject to the City’s Urban Runoff Management Ordinance. The proposed sound wall would not alter
drainage and impact water quality. Additionally, the relocation of the fire lane would result in no change from
the existing conditions.
Therefore, no new or more severe long-term operational impacts associated with water quality standards,
existing drainage patterns, or stormwater drainage system capacity would occur; the level of impact would not
change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; and no new mitigation measures are required.

b) Would the project 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 land uses for which permits have been granted)?
Short-Term Construction Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The EIR analysis conducted for the City Yards Master
Plan concluded that construction would not include dewatering; therefore, no impacts would occur to
groundwater levels with respect to construction dewatering. Water used during demolition and construction
for cleaning, dust control, and other uses would be nominal with respect to groundwater use. Therefore,
construction activities would not substantially deplete groundwater supplies, lower the local groundwater
table, or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master
Plan include the construction of the sound wall, which would similarly not require dewatering, and would
result in nominal water use.
Therefore, no new or more severe short-term construction impacts associated with groundwater supplies
or groundwater recharge would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in
the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.
Long-Term Operational Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan would not result in a change
in the City’s operations at the site. The relocation of the transfer facility would not change the previous
determination made by the City Yards Master Plan EIR with regard to groundwater because the transfer facility
occurred under the existing conditions analyzed in the previously certified EIR and would be a minor change
in location. The proposed sound wall would not necessitate a need for groundwater. Thus, the water demand
generated by the proposed project would remain relatively unchanged, since the specific land uses and
operations of the City Yards would remain unchanged. Therefore, no additional groundwater withdrawals
beyond those currently allocated to serve the project site are anticipated, and groundwater levels would not
be substantially affected during proposed project operations.
The City Yards Site is currently developed with buildings or paved, with the exception of relatively small
landscape areas. Due to the relatively impermeable nature of the underlying cohesive native soils, the
presence of a refuse landfill, and the potential for creating perched water zones within the landfill pit,
infiltration of substantial amounts of stormwater into the underlying soils on the site, such as via a retention
basin, is infeasible. Therefore, no change in groundwater recharge potential would occur.
Therefore, no new or more severe long-term operation impacts associated with groundwater supplies or
groundwater recharge would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in
the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.

d) Would the project substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the
alteration of the course of a stream or river or through the addition of impervious surfaces, in a manner
which would result in flooding on- or off-site?
and
e) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
within the existing City Yards Site, which was previously analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR and the
adjacent paved SCD lot.
As analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, implementation of the City Yards Master Plan would alter the
existing drainage patterns of the project site with redevelopment of the buildings, introduction of new
pervious surfaces/landscaped areas, and replacement/reconfiguration of on-site storm drains. However,
under proposed project conditions, the City would implement a stormwater management approach to avoid
discharge of stormwater runoff to the sewer system. Thus, 100% of stormwater runoff is assumed to
discharge to the Los Angeles County Flood Control District’s 45-inch-diameter storm drain, which would
result in an increase in peak storm flows of 25.51 cubic feet per second (cfs) for a 25-year storm event and
32.43 cfs for a 50-year storm event. However, stormwater runoff associated with precipitation events in
excess of the first 0.75 inches of rain would drain to the storm drain in quantities in excess of existing site
conditions. Based on a project-specific hydraulic analysis conducted for the City Yards Master Plan EIR by
the Los Angeles County Flood Control District, the allowable discharge from the project site to the underlying
45-inch storm drain will be 2.436 cfs/acre (KPFF 2018). This amount is equivalent to an allowable peak
flow of 35.81 cfs for the 14.7-acre site, which exceeds the anticipated 25-year storm event of 32.85 cfs.
As a result, the storm drain could accommodate project-related increases in stormwater runoff. The
addition of activities on the SCD lot that are already existing would not substantially add additional sources
of polluted runoff.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with runoff would occur, and the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures
are required.
g) Would the project 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??
and
h) Would the project place within a 100-year flood hazard area structures which would impede or redirect
flood flows?
and
i) Would the project 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 dam?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. As analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR the City

Yards Site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area or an area susceptible to flooding or inundation
as a result of levee or dam inundation failure. According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency Flood
Insurance Rate Map (FEMA 2020), the City Yards Site is located outside of both a 1% Annual Chance Flood
Hazard Zone (100-year floodplain) and 0.2% Annual Chance Flood Hazard Zone (500-year floodplain).
Additionally, the General Plan Safety Element defines risk in the City from inundation or flooding resulting from
the failure of a dam or levee as “low.” In addition, Safety Element Policies 3.1 and 3.2 include design
requirements and require site-specific evaluation and consideration of individual projects to ensure the risks
associated with development within a dam inundation zone are minimized (City of Santa Monica 1995). The
proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes would not place structures on site that would impede or
expose people or structures to risk of flooding.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with flooding would occur, the level of impact would
not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures
are required.
j) Would the project be susceptible to inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. As analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, the
City Yards Site is not located within a potential tsunami inundation area as identified in the Santa Monica
Safety Element (City of Santa Monica 1995). Further, the City Yards Site and SCD lot are located
approximately 2 miles inland from the coast. The possibility of a tsunami affecting the site is considered to
be remote. Damage to the City Yards Site due to a seiche, a seismic-induced wave generated in a restricted
body of water, is not likely at the site because no such bodies of water are located near the site. The
proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes would not be at risk to inundation from seiche, tsunami,
or mudflow.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with tsunami, mudflow, or seiche would occur; the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; and no new
mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with hydrology and water quality would occur, and the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation
measures are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR did not require any mitigation measures related to hydrology and water quality.

result in the following:
Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project physically divide an established community?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. The project site is currently developed with
City Yards facilities. The proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan
would reconfigure and redesign the City Yards to improve operations. The proposed project does not
propose an extension of infrastructure or uses into established neighborhoods. Thus, implementation of
the proposed changes would not physically divide an existing community.

Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with the physical division of an established
community would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards
Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.
b) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed locations for the changes to the City Yards
Master Plan are within the existing City Yards Site, analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and the
adjacent SCD lot. The proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan EIR
would remain consistent with the City’s Land Use and Circulation Element and SCAG goals of focusing land
use changes in limited areas of the City near transit and along transportation corridors to preserve the City’s
existing residential neighborhoods. The proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes would be
consistent with the policies and standards identified within the Land Use and Circulation Element and
Zoning Ordinance to guide the proposed redevelopment.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with applicable land use plans, policies, and
regulations would occur; the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards
Master Plan EIR; and no new mitigation measures are required.
c) Would the project conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. There are no habitat conservation plans, natural
community conservation plans, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plans that
apply to the City. Consequently, the proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes would not conflict
with the provisions of an adopted habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with an adopted habitat conservation plan would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with land use and planning would occur, and the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation measures
are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR did not require any mitigation measures related to land use and planning.

and
b) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and adjacent SCD lot. As analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan
EIR, a portion of the City Yards Site was an abandoned clay-mining pit. After the clay quarries were depleted,
the area was used as a landfill by the City. The landfill operated as a municipal solid waste and incinerator
ash landfill from mid-1940s until December 1970. The City Yards Site was then developed with its existing
industrial uses. As such, implementation of the proposed project inclusive of the proposed changes would
not result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource because the clay has been depleted and
developed for more than 50 years.

Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project have considerable effects on the City’s residential neighborhoods?
No Substantial Change from the Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan EIR concluded that
neighborhood effects of the City Yards Master Plan would not result in significant impacts. In general, the
City considers “neighborhood effects” to be the composite long-term effects of aesthetics, air quality, noise,
land use, public safety, and transportation/traffic on residential uses in the neighborhood. As such, the
potential for the proposed changes to result in new or more significant impacts is further discussed in
Sections 3.1; 3.3; 3.11, Land Use and Planning; 3.14; 3.16, Public Services; and 3.18. As discussed herein,
the proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan would not result in new or more severe impacts related
to aesthetics, air quality, land use and planning, noise, public services, and transportation and circulation.

Short-Term Construction Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the existing City Yards Site and the adjacent SCD lot. As analyzed in the EIR, impacts
associated with noise from project-related construction activities would be less than significant with MM-
NOI-1, which requires, among other things, the scheduling of construction activities to avoid the
simultaneous operation of construction equipment, properly operating and maintaining mufflers, a
temporary construction noise barrier, and shutting off idling equipment.

ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 75 MAY 2022
Based on construction phasing and equipment assumptions provided by the City and CalEEMod default
values (consistent with the air quality analysis [Section 3.3]), a spreadsheet version of the Federal Highway
Administration’s Roadway Construction Noise Model (FHWA 2008) was used to estimate short-term noise
levels from the proposed changes. As shown in Table 8, the proposed changes would result in lower
construction noise levels overall relative to those estimated for the City Yards Master Plan, particularly for
the noisiest phases. Construction noise levels associated with the proposed changes are estimated to be
approximately 2 to 9 decibels lower than those from the City Yards Master Plan (depending upon
construction phase), with two exceptions. Typical construction work during site preparation is predicted to
create approximately the same noise level as originally predicted, and typical construction work during
architectural coating is predicted to result in noise levels approximately 2 decibels higher than originally
predicted; however, the levels during the architectural coating phase would still be relatively low and would
still represent the quietest construction phase. As such, the proposed changes would not result in new
significant impacts related to project construction, or the need for new mitigation measures.
However, construction noise from the proposed changes would still be considered relatively high compared
to existing ambient noise levels in the project area and would thus still exceed the construction noise
threshold identified in the certified EIR.3 However, as with the approved project, implementation of MM-
NOI-1 from the certified EIR would result in substantial decreases in noise from construction. These
measures require that standard construction noise reduction measures (such as ensuring that mufflers are
in good working order, shutting off idling equipment, use of temporary noise barriers, locating staging areas
as far as possible from noise-sensitive uses, etc.) are implemented. As described in the certified EIR, when
put together, the noise reduction measures set forth in MM-NOI-1 would result in substantial decreases in
noise from construction. As such, impacts would be reduced and would be less than significant with
mitigation. The proposed changes would not result in new significant impacts, nor would they result in
substantial increases in the severity of impacts or the need for new mitigation measures in the category of
construction noise.

1 Values shown represent a comparison of the unmitigated construction noise estimates for the originally proposed project first
phase (from Table 4.11-8 of the Draft EIR) to the unmitigated construction noise of the proposed changes. Note that the noise
analysis conservatively assumes there would be no intervening noise barriers.
2 The nearest sensitive receptors are the residential uses at the Mountain View mobile home park located approximately 25 feet
to the east of the project site.
Therefore, with implementation of MM-NOI-1, no new or more severe short-term construction impacts
associated with noise would occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City
Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
Long-Term Operational Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan EIR found that long-term on-
site noise associated with the City Yards operations would be less than significant based upon the
elimination or relocation of the buy-back center, the fact that the overall functionality and activities on site
would be unchanged, and the construction of new structures that would provide noise reduction between
the activity noise and the residences to the southeast.
In order to determine the extent of potential noise impacts resulting from the proposed changes, a series
of noise measurements were conducted in and adjacent to the Hanson lot and the SCD lot, as shown in
Figure 5, Noise Measurement Locations, and documented in Appendix B. The proposed project changes
would consist primarily of a relocation of the City’s tip and transfer facility from its current location at City
Yards south of the Fire Department Training area to the Hanson and SCD lots. Moving these operations
substantially closer to the nearest noise-sensitive uses (i.e., the mobile homes to the east of the project
site) has the potential to increase noise levels beyond those assessed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR
and to potentially exceed applicable City noise standards.
The normally acceptable sound level is 60 decibels for residential uses, with up to 70 decibels being
conditionally acceptable. In order to reduce noise levels resulting from the relocation of the tip and transfer
activities closer to the mobile homes, a noise barrier (also known as a sound wall) would be constructed as
part of the proposed changes. As described in Section 2.3.2, Proposed Sound Wall, and shown in Figure 3,
the sound wall would be constructed from the existing 14-foot-high wall on the SCD lot to the northeast
corner of the Hanson lot. The sound wall would have an overall height of 12 feet and would be approximately
3.A.e
Packet Pg. 211 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 77 MAY 2022
150 to 200 feet long. In concert with the existing wall on the SCD lot, the sound wall on the Hanson Lot
would effectively ensure that noise levels from the proposed project changes are not increased
substantially above those analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR and do not exceed City noise standards
(please see Appendix B for detailed analysis data and discussion).
Therefore, no new or more severe long-term operational impacts associated with noise would occur, the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new
mitigation measures are required.
b) Would the project result in exposure of persons to or generation of excessive groundborne vibration or
groundborne noise levels?
Short-Term Construction Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan EIR found that impacts related
to groundborne vibration during construction would be less than significant. Based on the assumption that
construction would take place within approximately 25 feet of the nearest sensitive receptor, vibration from
construction would be well below the California Department of Transportation threshold of “distinctly
perceptible” (0.24 inches per second peak particle velocity), as well as the threshold for structural damage
(0.5 inches per second peak particle velocity or greater for buildings of reinforced-concrete, steel, or timber
construction). Additionally, vibration from construction is exempt from the City’s municipal code.
Under the proposed project changes, the associated construction activities would be less intensive (i.e., fewer
pieces and types of equipment, overall) than anticipated for the City Yards Master Plan EIR. Additionally, the
construction activities from the proposed project changes would take place within approximately 25 feet or
more of the nearest noise-and vibration-sensitive uses (the mobile home park residences to the east); thus,
the estimated vibration levels would be the same as or less than the analysis previously conducted.
Therefore, no new or more severe short-term vibration impacts associated with construction noise would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
Long-Term Operational Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan EIR found that impacts
related to groundborne vibration during operation would be less than significant. Based upon the
assumption that heavy equipment would likely be used to periodically move and load materials around the
site or onto/off of trucks within 50 feet of the nearest residences, the vibration level from operations activity
would be approximately 0.032 inches per second peak particle velocity and would thus be less than either
the California Department of Transportation or the City thresholds of perceptibility. Furthermore, the
vibration from moving vehicles is exempt from the City’s municipal code. Vibration during operation was
determined to be less than significant and no mitigation is required.
Under the proposed project changes, the nearest anticipated heavy equipment usage would remain at
approximately 50 feet or more from the nearest noise-and vibration-sensitive uses (the residences to
the southeast); thus, the estimated worst-case vibration levels would be the same as for the analysis
previously conducted.

Therefore, no new or more severe long-term vibration impacts associated with operation noise would occur,
the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new
mitigation measures are required.
c) Would the project result in a substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity
above levels existing without the project?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As discussed in Section 3.14(a), a sound wall would be
constructed as part of the proposed project changes. The sound wall would substantially reduce noise levels
from the proposed relocation of tip and transfer activities and construction of the wall would not exceed City
noise standards (please see Appendix B for detailed analysis data and discussion).
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with noise would occur, the level of impact would not
change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
d) Would the project result in a substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient noise levels in the
project vicinity above levels existing without the project?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As discussed in Section 3.14(a), construction
associated with the proposed changes would utilize machinery that would generate noise. However, the
construction activities would take place within approximately 25 feet or more of the nearest noise- and
vibration-sensitive uses (the residences to the east), which is the same distance assessed for the City Yards
Master Plan EIR, and for the most part would be less intensive, resulting in lower noise levels; thus, the
estimated noise levels would be approximately the same or lower than the analysis previously conducted.
Therefore, with implementation of MM-NOI-1, no new or more severe impacts associated with noise would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
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?
and
f) For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project expose people residing or
working in the project area to excessive noise levels?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Site is not located within the vicinity of a
private airstrip. As analyzed in the EIR, the City Yards Master Plan would not expose people to excessive
noise levels from a private airstrip. The project site is located in the vicinity of the Santa Monica Municipal
Airport. The Santa Monica Municipal Airport is located approximately 1.7 miles southeast of the project site.
However, the project site is not identified as being located within the Airport Noise Contour Area of the
Santa Monica Airport (ALUC 2003). The project site is located approximately 1 mile from the northwest
edge of the Airport Noise Contour Area. Furthermore, the City and the Federal Aviation Administration signed
a settlement agreement that will lead to the eventual closure of the Santa Monica Municipal Airport after
2028 (FAA 2017). The project site is approximately 6 miles north of Los Angeles International Airport and
is not within the Los Angeles International Airport Influence Area (ALUC 2003). No private airstrips are
located in the project area. The nearest active public-use airport to the project site is Ontario International
Airport, which is located approximately 7 miles west, well outside of the project area.

Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with public airport and private airstrip noise would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, with implementation of MM-NOI-1, no new or more severe impacts associated with the noise would
occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new
mitigation measures are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR required the following applicable mitigation measures related to noise, which
remain applicable:
MM-NOI-1 The City shall adhere to the following measures for all phases of the proposed project as a condition
of approving the grading permit:
i. The project contractor shall, to the extent feasible, schedule construction activities to avoid
the simultaneous operation of construction equipment so as to minimize noise levels
resulting from operating several pieces of high-noise-level-emitting equipment.
ii. All construction equipment, fixed or mobile, shall be equipped with properly operating and
maintained mufflers. Enforcement shall be accomplished by random field inspections by City
personnel during construction activities.
iii. A temporary construction noise barrier shall be erected at the southeasterly project boundary
between the adjacent residences and the project site. The construction noise barrier shall be a
minimum of 10 feet in height, have a surface density of at least 4 pounds per square foot, and be
free of gaps or openings.
iv. Construction noise reduction methods such as shutting off idling equipment, maximizing the
distance between construction equipment staging areas and adjacent residences, and use of
electric air compressors and similar power tools, rather than diesel equipment, shall be used
where feasible.
v. During construction, stationary construction equipment shall be placed such that emitted noise is
directed away from or shielded from sensitive receptors.
vi. As specified in Section 4.12.120 of the City’s Municipal Code, signage shall be posted at the
project site entrance with permitted construction work hours, telephone numbers where violations
can be reported, the location of the job site, and the permit number issued authorizing the work.

c) Would the project displace substantial numbers of existing people, necessitating the construction of
replacement housing elsewhere?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the City Yards Site and the adjacent SCD lot which are both zoned Industrial Conservation.
No housing exists on the City Yards Site, and as such, no displacement of housing or people would occur.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with the displacement of housing or people would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with population and housing would occur, and the level
of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation measures
are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR did not require any mitigation measures related to population and housing.

The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined that development in accordance with the City Yards Master Plan would
result in the following:
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:
i. Fire protection? (Less-Than-Significant Impact)
ii. Police protection? (Less-Than-Significant Impact)
iii. Schools? (No Impact)
iv. Parks? (Less-Than-Significant Impact)
v. Other public facilities? (No Impact)
Proposed Project Significance Determination
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:
Fire protection?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan
(relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of fire lane) would not
result in any new operations on the City Yards Site or increase in the demand for fire protection services
when compared to the existing conditions. Therefore, the proposed changes would not change the previous
determination made by the City Yards Master Plan EIR with regard to fire protection services. In addition,
the proposed project would not induce substantial population growth, either directly or indirectly, such that
additional fire protection would be needed.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with fire protection would occur, the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.

Police protection?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As previously discussed in Section 3.16(a), the proposed
changes would not result in any new operations on the City Yards Site or increase in the demand for police
protection services when compared to the existing conditions. Therefore, the proposed changes would not
change the previous determination made by the City Yards Master Plan EIR with regard to police protection
services. In addition, the proposed project would result in reconstruction of the existing City Yards Site and
would not expand the capacity of these uses such that additional population growth would occur and
expansion of police services would be necessary.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with police protection facilities would occur, the level
of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.
Schools?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan would
not result in any new operations on the City Yards Site and school demand when compared to the existing
conditions. Therefore, the proposed changes would not change the previous determination made by the City
Yards Master Plan EIR with regard to schools. The proposed project would not result in growth in the City’s
employee population nor would it include new residential uses that could impact schools. The City Yards Master
Plan would result in the reconstruction of the City Yards Site, but would not increase student enrollment through
the construction of new housing or expansion of the City’s workforce. As such, implementation of the City Yards
Master Plan would not generate population growth or generate new students.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with school facilities would occur, the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.
Parks?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan
would not result in any new operations on the City Yards Site and demand for parks when compared to the
existing conditions. Therefore, the proposed changes would not change the previous determination made
by the City Yards Master Plan EIR with regard to parks. Given the lack of population growth as a result of
the City Yards Master Plan, neither construction nor operation of the proposed project would generate new
residents to the extent that new or expanded park facilities would be required.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with recreational facilities would occur, and the level
of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation
measures are required.
Other public facilities?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan
would not result in any new operations on the City Yards Site when compared to the existing conditions.
Therefore, the proposed changes would not change the previous determination made by the City Yards

Master Plan EIR with regard to other public facilities. Implementation of the proposed project would not
impact libraries or other public facilities. The project as proposed would not generate new permanent
residents in the City who would use public facilities. As such, the City Yards Master Plan would not increase
demand in capacity of existing libraries or other public facilities.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with other public facilities would occur, the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with public services would occur, and the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation measures are required.

and
b) Does the project include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational

No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. Implementation of the City Yards Master Plan, including the
proposed changes, would not directly or indirectly induce population growth in the City as the City Yards Site and
adjacent SCD lot would continue to be used for municipal/industrial purposes. Neither construction nor
operation of the proposed project would generate new residents to the extent that use of existing parks and
recreational facilities would increase and result in the physical deterioration of these facilities.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with recreational facilities would occur, the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation

including but not limited to intersections, streets, highways and freeways, pedestrian and bicycle paths,
and mass transit?
Short-Term Construction Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The City Yards Master Plan would be constructed in phases
over an approximately 9-year period. The only new construction resulting from the relocation of the transfer
facility would be construction of a sound wall located on the Hanson lot, which is the southeastern portion of
the City Yards Site. Due to the relatively short-term nature of the construction of the sound wall, the
construction-related vehicle trips would be nominal and would not contribute significantly to long-term traffic
congestion. However, it was found in the EIR that increased construction traffic on streets related to the overall
City Yards construction could disrupt traffic flows, reduce lane capacities, and generally slow traffic
movement. Therefore, implementation of MM-TRA-1 would require preparation of a Construction Impact
Mitigation Plan to address construction traffic routing and control, vehicular and pedestrian safety,
pedestrian/bicycle access and parking, street closures, and construction parking.
Therefore, with implementation of MM-TRA-1, no new or more severe short-term construction impacts
associated with conflicting with an applicable circulation plan, ordinance or policy, including the regional

congestion management program, would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level
identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.
Long-Term Operational Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The previously certified EIR concluded that traffic
impacts would be less than significant. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan (relocation of
the transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of fire lane) would not significantly
alter the traffic conditions from what was assessed in the EIR. The relocation of the transfer facility to a
different area within the City Yards Site and the adjacent SCD lot would not change the conclusions made
in the EIR because the trips that were previously assessed would not change due to the proposed changes.
Therefore, no new or more severe long-term operational impacts associated with conflicting with an
applicable circulation plan, ordinance or policy, including the regional congestion management program,
would occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master
Plan EIR; no new mitigation measures are required.
b) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As the congestion management agency for Los Angeles
County, Metro is responsible for implementation of the Congestion Management Plan. As analyzed in the
EIR, none of the four Congestion Management Plan intersections are located in the project area, and as
such, would not be adversely affected by the proposed project.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with an appliable congestion management plan
would occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan
EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
c) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
located within the City Yards Site. The City Yards Site is located approximately 1.7 miles northwest of the
Santa Monica Municipal Airport. However, the project site is not located within the Airport Influence Area
for the Santa Monica Airport. Additionally, the proposed project inclusive of the changes would not change
air traffic patterns.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with air traffic patterns would occur, the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.

13898 89 MAY 2022
d) Would the project Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous
intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As analyzed in the EIR, the on-site improvements
resulting from implementation of the City Yards Master Plan would be designed in accordance with all
applicable design standards, including those addressing Americans with Disabilities Act accessibility,
adequate width, and adequate turning radius. The only new construction associated with the proposed
changes would be the sound wall, which is not considered a hazardous or incompatible feature and moving
the fire lane for better access to the mobile home park. In addition, all site plans would be reviewed by the
City’s Mobility Division and Traffic Engineering Division for adequate line-of-sight provision at driveways, so
no structures or landscaping block the views of vehicles entering and exiting a site. Specifically, the
proposed project would be subject to the Municipal Code Section 9.04.10.08.060(d), which states, “the
design, location or position of any parking layout, entry, driveway, approach, or access from any street or
alley shall be approved by the Parking and Traffic Engineer.” Site plan approval from the City’s
Transportation Management Division would ensure that site access provides sufficient egress for trucks
and emergency vehicles prior to approval. As such, no sharp curves, dangerous intersections, or
incompatible uses would be introduced by the proposed project.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with hazardous design features would occur, the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new
mitigation measures are required.
e) Would the project result in inadequate emergency access?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, the City
Yards Site is located in an established, developed area with ample access for emergency service providers.
The project site would be accessible through two main points of entry on Frank Street (one into the Hanson
lot and one into the SCD lot). The proposed project’s driveways would be designed and constructed to City
standards and comply with City width, clearance, and turning-radius requirements including those for
emergency vehicles. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan (relocation of the transfer facility,
construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of fire lane) would not alter emergency access from that
analyzed in the EIR. The City Yards Site would be accessible to emergency responders during construction
and operation of the proposed project. However, under the proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan,
the fire lane that currently bisects the Hanson lot would be moved to a location north of the Hanson lot that
connects to the fire access gate at the mobile home park, therefore, adequate emergency access would
continue to be provided.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with emergency access would occur, the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.
f) Would the project conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs regarding public transit, bicycle, or
pedestrian facilities, or otherwise decrease the performance or safety of such facilities?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As analyzed in the EIR, implementation of the City Yards
Master Plan would not physically preclude implementation of any regional or local policies, plans, or programs

regarding public transit, bicycle, or pedestrian facilities. The proposed project modifications also would not
change public transit, bicycle facilities or pedestrian facilities in the project area.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with public transit, bicycle, or pedestrian facilities
would occur; the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan
EIR; and no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with transportation and traffic would occur, and the level
of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. No new mitigation measures
are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR required the following applicable mitigation measures related to transportation and
circulation, which remain applicable:

Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a tribal cultural resource,
defined in Public Resources Code section 21074 as either a site, feature, place, cultural landscape that is
geographically defined in terms of the size and scope of the landscape, sacred place, or object with cultural

i) Listed or eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources, or in a local register
of historical resources as defined in Public Resources Code section 5020.1(k)?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed relocation of the transfer facility,
construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of a fire lane would not result in the demolition of any
structures. As such, there is no new demolition of existing structures proposed, other than the demolition
already assessed within the City Yards Master Plan EIR. The City Yards, the adjacent property, and all
associated buildings and structures were found not eligible under all National Register of Historic Places,
California Register of Historical Resources, and City designation criteria. Therefore, the property is not
considered an historical resource for the purposes of CEQA.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with listed or eligible historical resources would
occur, and the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR;
no new mitigation measures are required.
ii) A resource determined by the lead agency, in its discretion and supported by substantial evidence,
to be significant pursuant to criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resources Code Section

5024.1, the lead agency shall consider the significance of the resource to a California Native
American tribe.
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan
would be located within the existing construction footprint previously analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan
EIR. Thus, site-specific information analyzed in the EIR applies to the proposed project. No cultural
resources were identified within or adjacent to the City Yards Site as a result of the California Historical
Resources Information System records search, Native American Heritage Commission Sacred Lands File
search, or the Native American consultation efforts conducted for the City Yards Master Plan EIR by the
City. Further, the project site was previously used as a clay and mining pit from at least 1905 to until 1935
and a landfill from 1947 to 1970. These previous uses involved a significant amount of ground-disturbing
activities, resulting in the site being underlain by refuse fill up to 60 feet in depth. Any tribal resources would
have been significantly disturbed.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with tribal cultural resources would occur, and the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR; no new
mitigation measures are required.

serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project’s projected demand in addition to the
provider’s existing commitments?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As proposed, the City intends to modernize City Yards
operations through the construction of new structures that would be similar in scale to existing structures.

However, the City Yards Master Plan would not result in a change in the City’s operations at the site. The
proposed changes would not change the previous determination made by the City Yards Master Plan EIR
with regard to wastewater treatment because operations would remain the same compared to the existing
condition. Upon implementation of the City Yards Master Plan, the types of uses and operations on the site
would not change from existing conditions. As such, wastewater quality would not be substantially different
from existing conditions and wastewater flows are not anticipated to increase.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with wastewater treatment requirements or
treatment capacity would occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City
Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation measures are required.
b) Would the project 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?
Wastewater Treatment Facilities
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
within the City Yards Site, analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. The City Yards Site is currently served
by an existing 18-inch sewer line that runs through the site from Michigan Avenue to Stewart Street. This
sewer line would be protected in place during construction. The proposed project would not involve
appreciable changes to the City Yards Site or the adjacent SCD lot that would substantially increase
wastewater generation such that the construction of a new sewer line or expansion of this sewer main
would be required.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with wastewater treatment facilities would occur, the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new
mitigation measures are required.
Water Treatment Facilities
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
within the City Yards Site, analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. Currently, water is supplied to the City
Yards Site via laterals connected to an 8-inch water main running east–west beneath Michigan Avenue
along the northern border of the site to Stewart Street. Additionally, there is a 6-inch water main partly
through the western portion of the site connecting to an 8-inch water main beneath Delaware Avenue/24th
Street. The City Yards Master Plan project would cut and cap the existing 8-inch northern water line running
east–west. Specifically, this line would be cut and capped at the eastern end of Michigan Avenue. The
remaining segment of this line from this point to Stewart Street would be demolished. A replacement water
line would be constructed to the north of this alignment. The 6-inch water main running north–south is
anticipated to remain in place. Additionally, the City Yards Master Plan EIR assessed the installation of new
domestic and fire water laterals to the existing water mains. Such connections would be installed within
site boundaries and would be appropriately sized to serve the City Yards Site. Environmental effects
associated with the construction of the proposed project’s water facilities including connections would be
localized to within the site and were taken into account in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. Further, the
proposed changes are not anticipated to require additional water supply, and new or expanded water
treatment facilities would not be required.

ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT

Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with water treatment facilities would occur, the level
of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.
c) Would the project 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The proposed changes to the City Yards Master Plan are
within the existing City Yards Site, analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR. Therefore, the site-specific
information analyzed in the EIR is applicable to the proposed locations for the tip and transfer activities
and drainage impacts would remain unchanged from those discussed in the EIR.
Implementation of the City Yards Master Plan would alter the existing drainage patterns of the project site
with redevelopment of the buildings, introduction of new pervious surfaces/landscaped areas, and
replacement/reconfiguration of on-site storm drains. However, as assessed in the City Yards EIR, the City
would implement a stormwater management approach to avoid discharge of stormwater runoff to the sewer
system. Thus, 100% of stormwater runoff is assumed to discharge to the Los Angeles County Flood Control
District’s 45-inchdiameter storm drain, which would result in an increase in peak storm flows of 25.51 cfs
for a 25-year storm event and 32.43 cfs for a 50-year storm event. However, stormwater runoff associated
with precipitation events in excess of the first 0.75 inches of rain would drain to the storm drain in quantities
in excess of existing site conditions. Based on a project-specific hydraulic analysis conducted for the City
Yards Master Plan EIR by the Los Angeles County Flood Control District, the allowable discharge from the
project site to the underlying 45-inch storm drain will be 2.436 cfs/acre (KPFF 2018). This amount is
equivalent to an allowable peak flow of 35.81 cfs for the 14.7-acre site, which exceeds the anticipated 25-
year storm event of 32.85 cfs. As a result, the storm drain could accommodate the proposed project
modifications’ increases in stormwater runoff.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with stormwater drainage facilities would occur, the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new
mitigation measures are required.
d) Would the project Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project from existing entitlements
and resources, or are new or expanded entitlements needed?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As proposed, the City intends to modernize City Yards
operations through the construction of structures of similar scale. However, the City Yards Master Plan
would not result in a change in the City’s operations at the site. Similarly, the proposed relocation of the
transfer facility, construction of a new sound wall, and relocation of a fire lane would not result in any new
operations when compared to the existing conditions with regard to water supply. Water demand generated
by the implementation of the City Yards Master Plan would remain relatively unchanged with respect to the
existing condition. Further, the proposed changes are not anticipated to require additional water demand.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with water supply would occur, the level of impact
would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.

f) Would the project be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to accommodate the project’s
solid waste disposal needs?
Short-Term Construction Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. Construction of the City Yards Master Plan would
generate construction and demolition waste such as asphalt and concrete. Any construction waste
generated as a result of the relocation of the transfer facility and fire lane would comply with SMMC
Chapter 8.108, requiring submission of a waste management plan and requiring 70% of all construction
and demolition material generated by the proposed project to be diverted. Solid waste generated during
construction of the proposed project modifications would result in very little solid waste generation and
construction debris as there is no demolition of structures and the proposed sound wall is new construction.
Therefore, no new or more severe short-term impacts associated with permitted landfill capacity would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
Long-Term Operational Impacts
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The transfer station would be relocated from the
southwest corner of the City Yards Site to the Hanson and SCD lots. Thus, City Yards would continue to
provide a recycling and transfer station, which would reduce the amount of waste within the City going
directly to permitted landfills.
Therefore, no new or more severe long-term impacts associated with permitted landfill capacity would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
g) Would the project comply with federal, state, and local management and reduction statutes and
regulations related to solid waste?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. With the proposed changes to the City Yards Master
Plan, City Yards would continue to provide tip and transfer processing, which would reduce the amount of
waste within the City going directly to permitted landfills. Upon implementation of the proposed project,
trash trucks would still operate in and out of the City Yards Site, as with current conditions. All collection,
transportation, and disposal of municipal solid waste would continue would occur in accordance with all
applicable federal, state, and local statutes and regulations.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with solid waste statutes and regulations would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with utilities and service systems would occur, and the
level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan. No new mitigation measures
are required.

Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Would the project result in a potentially significant environmental impact due to wasteful, inefficient,
or unnecessary consumption of energy resources during project construction or operation?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis.
Short-Term Construction Impacts
Construction of the project may require the use of electric power for as-necessary lighting and electronic
equipment. The amount of electricity used during construction would be limited to energy demand that
typically stems from the use of electrically powered construction equipment. This electricity demand would
be temporary and would cease upon completion of construction; thus, the project would not adversely
3.A.e
Packet Pg. 234 Attachment: City Yards Master Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
ADDENDUM TO THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA CITY YARDS / ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
13898 100 MAY 2022
impact the available electricity supply. During construction, natural gas is not anticipated to be consumed
on the project site consistent with typical construction practices.
Petroleum would be consumed throughout construction of the project; however, it is anticipated to be
minimal. Fuel consumed by construction equipment would be the primary energy resource expended over
the course of construction. Vehicle miles traveled associated with the transportation of construction
materials and construction worker commutes also would result in petroleum consumption. However, the
project would be required to comply with CARB’s Airborne Toxics Control Measure, which restricts heavy-
duty diesel vehicle idling time to 5 minutes. In addition, the construction of the project would be a
temporary, short-term activity, and any petroleum used during the construction phase would be used
towards the development of the project; as such, petroleum use for construction would be relatively
nominal and would not be wasteful or inefficient use of resources. Therefore, short-term construction
impacts associated with project energy consumption would be less than significant.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with construction energy would occur, the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.
Long-Term Operational Impacts
The project involves relocation of the transfer facility, construction of a sound wall on the Hanson lot, and
relocation of the fire lane. The proposed project is expected to minimally increase the on-site use of energy
compared with the existing conditions associated with off-road equipment usage and potentially parking
lot lighting. The project does not include operation of a new building, which typically demands energy use
in the form of natural gas or electricity, including electricity for water conveyance, treatment, and
distribution. The project also does not result in an increase in vehicular trips that would consume petroleum.
Of note, the transfer facility occurs under existing conditions, and as such would not increase energy usage
within the City. In addition, the proposed sound wall would not require energy. With fire department facilities
remaining, there would be no change from the existing conditions. Accordingly, the project would result in
minor use of energy at the relocation site.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with operational energy would occur, the level of
impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and no new mitigation
measures are required.
b) Would the project conflict with or obstruct a state or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As explained in 3.21(a), the project would consume
minimal energy during construction, which would be temporary. During operation, the project would
consume minimal energy associated with the use of off-road equipment and potential parking lot lighting.
Because the project does not involve construction of a building, it would not be subject to and thus, not
conflict with energy plans related to buildings (e.g., Title 24, Part 6, of the California Code of Regulations
including the California Green Building Standards Code).
The proposed project as a whole, as evaluated in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, would include various
sustainability features such as naturally ventilated spaces, high-SRI pavement, rooftop solar arrays, and
water-saving features. With these features, the proposed project overall would provide opportunities for

improved energy efficiency that would support state and local plans for increasing renewable energy
efficiency. The project’s microgrid would allow for the generation/storage of 1.4 megawatts of renewable
energy generated on site, which would support renewable energy efforts. Accordingly, the project and the
City Yards Master Plan would not conflict with or obstruct a plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency.
Therefore, no new or more severe impacts associated with the potential to conflict with energy plans would
occur, the level of impact would not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan EIR, and
no new mitigation measures are required.
Conclusion
In conclusion, no new or more severe impacts associated with energy would occur, and the level of impact would
not change from the level identified in the City Yards Master Plan. No new mitigation measures are required.
Existing Mitigation Measures Applicable to Proposed Project
The City Yards Master Plan EIR did not require any mitigation measures related to energy.

Previous Significance Determination
The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined that development in accordance with the City Yards Master Plan,
including construction and operation of the proposed project, would result in the following:
Proposed Project Significance Determination
a) Does the project have the potential to substantially 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, substantially 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?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. As analyzed in this Addendum, the proposed project
would not degrade the quality of the environment. For the reasons discussed in Section 3.4, Biological
Resources, the proposed project would not 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, or reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal.
In addition, for the reasons identified in Section 3.6, Cultural Resources, of this document, the City Yards
Site does not contain any important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory, and
no impacts to such resources would occur. Therefore, implementation of the project would not result in any
new impacts or increase the severity of a previously identified significant impact as previously analyzed in
the City Yards Master Plan EIR.

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.)
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. Similar to the project originally analyzed in the City Yards
Master Plan EIR, the City Yards Master Plan, including the proposed changes, has the potential to result in
incremental environmental impacts, which would be reduced to less than significant with implementation
of mitigation measures. The City Yards Master Plan EIR determined that no cumulative impacts were
significant and unavoidable, and mitigation measures recommended in the EIR would reduce impacts
associated with construction effects, cultural resources, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, and
transportation and circulation. Therefore, implementation of the proposed project with the proposed project
modifications would not result in any new cumulative impacts or increase the severity of a previously
identified significant cumulative impact as previously analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR.
c) Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings,
either directly or indirectly?
No Substantial Change from Previous Analysis. The implementation of the City Yards Master Plan would
not create adverse environmental effects that would cause substantial adverse effects on human beings,
either directly or indirectly. None of the proposed uses or activities would result in any substantial adverse
effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly, as discussed throughout this document. Therefore,
implementation of the proposed project would not result in any new impacts or increase the severity of a
significant impact as previously identified and analyzed in the City Yards Master Plan EIR

At the request of City of Santa Monica (City) Resource Recovery and Recycling staff, Dudek has conducted an
assessment of potential operational noise impacts resulting from the proposed relocation of the City Yard’s
transfer facility. The City’s transfer facility, which was located in the southern portion of the City Yards Site, would
be relocated to the Hanson and SCD lots. The Hanson lot is owned by the City and the SCD lot is owned by Southern
California Disposal. The two lots would be combined so that the tipping activities would occur primarily on the SCD
lot and the sorting and transfer activities would occur on the Hanson lot. The proposed transfer facility would occupy
an approximately 40,942-square foot area.
The SCD lot is currently used by SCD to tip materials. The addition of the Hanson lot would allow enough space to
sort the materials into different piles primarily dirt, concrete, and construction and demolition material, as well as
store equipment and provide a staging area for trucks that may be waiting for the SCD transfer area to clear of
trucks depositing materials.
Immediately east of the proposed transfer facility, a 12-foot high acoustical K-Rail barrier mounted sound wall which
would be constructed from the existing wall on the SCD lot to the northeast corner of the Hanson lot. The sound
wall would be approximately 150 to 200 feet long.
Noise Measurements
Tip and Transfer Activities Noise Measurements at SCD Lot
In coordination with facility staff, a Dudek field noise specialist conducted on-site noise measurements on June
10, 2021 at the proposed future tipping and transfer location (the SCD lot) during a demonstration of typical
activities to be conducted at the proposed site. Using a second noise meter, simultaneous noise measurements
were conducted at the mobile homes (Mountain View Mobile Inn) to the east. Noise measurements were

conducted in the absence of ongoing construction noise at the City Yards site to the north. The noise
measurements were conducted using sound level meters classified as Type II (General Purpose) by the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) and in accordance with ANSI protocol for community noise measurements.
During the on-site noise measurements, the major activities (trash dumping (i.e., tipping), trash piling, and trash
loading (i.e., transfer) were measured at a reference distance of approximately 50 feet from the primary work
area. The on-site measurements were conducted with the noise meter set to collect consecutive 5-second time
intervals, to be able to assess the noise data at a fine level of detail as needed. The resulting noise data was
then compiled to provide overall energy-average (Leq) activity noise levels, as well as the maximum (Lmax) and
minimum (Lmin) noise levels throughout the duration of the measured activity. Just prior to the tipping and transfer
activities, another sound level meter was set up at the Mountain View Mobile Inn, near the westerly boundary
between the mobile home park and the SCD Lot site and set to run continuously while the on-site activities
proceeded. During this time, the primary noise source was observed to be noise from the tipping and transfer
activities as well as traffic noise on the I-10 freeway to the south. The results for both the on-site noise
measurements and the simultaneous mobile home park measurements are summarized in Table 1.

During the on-site noise measurements, the major activities (truck movements, dirt piling, and dirt loading were
measured at a reference distance of approximately 100 feet from the primary work area (approximately 70 feet
from truck movements). The on-site measurements were conducted with the noise meter set to collect
consecutive 5-second time intervals, to be able to assess the noise data at a fine level of detail as needed. The
resulting noise data was then compiled to provide overall energy-average (Leq) activity noise levels, as well as the
maximum (Lmax) and minimum (Lmin) noise levels throughout the duration of the measured activity. Just prior to
the tipping and transfer activities, another sound level meter was set up at the Mountain View Mobile Inn, near
the northern boundary between the mobile home park and the Hanson Lot site and set to run continuously while
the on-site activities proceeded. During this time, the primary noise source was observed to be traffic noise on
the I-10 freeway to the south as well as noise from the SCD and City Yard activities to the west and north. The
results for both the on-site noise measurements and the simultaneous mobile home park measurements are
summarized in Table 2.

Noise Data Analysis
Tip and Transfer Activities Noise Measurements at SCD Lot
Using the measured noise levels, the relative differences in the noise produced by the tip-and-transfer activities
on-site versus at the nearby mobile home park is provided in Table 2. We believe that the substantially lower
levels at the mobile home park are due to the existing barrier along the boundary between the SCD lot and the
mobile home park, which is approximately 14 feet in height. As shown in Table 3, the measured noise levels at
the mobile home park ranged from approximately 63 to 66 dBA Leq during tip-and-transfer activities, while on-
site noise levels were approximately 9 to 14 dB higher. This shows that the existing noise barrier is quite effective
at reducing the noise levels from on-site noise at the adjacent community.

Additionally, it is noted (from Table 1) that the mobile home park ambient noise level (a sample of the continuous
noise monitoring during a brief period of time when no tip-and-transfer noise was taking place) was approximately
65 dBA Leq, and the overall continuous noise level was approximately 66 dBA Leq. Comparing these levels to the
measured mobile home park noise levels during tip-and-transfer activities (63 to 66 dBA Leq) indicates that on
an energy-average (i.e., Leq basis), the transfer of tip-and-transfer activities is not expected to result in a marked
increase in overall noise levels at the mobile home park. This is primarily because the existing ambient noise
levels are relatively high and seem to be dominated by freeway traffic.

As to the question of whether the proposed relocation would exceed City of Santa Monica noise regulations for
on-site noise, the following analysis is provided. The City of Santa Monica Municipal Code Noise Ordinance’s
Section 4.12.060 (Exterior Noise Standards) provides the following information:
(a) The following noise standards (Table 4), unless otherwise specifically indicated, shall apply to all property
with a designated noise zone during the times indicated:

(b) For each Noise Zone, the allowable exterior equivalent noise level shall be reduced by five dBA for impulsive
or simple tone noise, or for noises consisting of speech or music. If the ambient noise level exceeds the
allowable exterior noise level standard, the ambient noise level shall be the standard.
(c) Except as provided for in this Chapter, no person shall at any location within the City create any noise or
allow the creation of any noise on property owned, leased, occupied or otherwise controlled by such person,
which causes:
(1) The equivalent noise level to exceed the noise standards established in subsection (a) of this Section
for the noise zone where the measurement is taken; or
(2) A maximum instantaneous A-weighted, slow sound pressure level to exceed the decibel limits
established in subsection (a) of this Section for the noise zone where the measurement is taken plus
twenty dBA for any period of time.
(d) If any portion of a parcel is located within one hundred feet of a noise zone with higher noise standards as
compared to the noise standards for the noise zone in which the parcel is located, then the maximum
allowable exterior equivalent noise level for the entire parcel shall be the average of the noise standards of
the two noise zones. However, any noise level measurement must be taken at least twenty-five feet from
the parcel line of the source of the noise.
Based upon the City of Santa Monica Zoning Map (https://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=
7a65c2c884b241938011c9c702ee697c&extent=-118.5249,33.9979,-118.4161,34.052), the proposed tip
and transfer site is zoned IC (industrial Conservation), and is thus Noise Zone III; the adjacent mobile home park is
zoned RMH (Residential Mobile Home Park) and is thus within Noise Zone I. Assuming that tip and transfer activities
are limited to the hours of 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday, the
permissible noise levels at the boundary line with the mobile home park would be 65 dBA Leq over a 15-minute
period and 70 dBA Leq over a 5-minute period.
In order to provide a valid comparison to these standards, a “composite Leq” was calculated using the noise
measurement data collected. This was necessary because the tip and transfer activities did not have durations
lasting 5 to 15 minutes or more; as documented in Table 1, trash dumping (i.e., tipping) lasted approximately
3.4 minutes; trash piling lasted approximately 1.7 minutes, and trash loading (i.e., transfer) lasted approximately
4.8 minutes. The combined duration of all three activities is approximately 10 minutes. Assuming that the dumping,
piling and loading all occurred within a 15-minute time span, the composite 15-minute Leq would be approximately
65 dBA1. The composite 5-minute Leq would be approximately 66 dBA.
Table 5 provides a summary of the composite Leq noise data in comparison with the applicable City of Santa Monica
noise standards. As shown in Table 5, the proposed relocated tip and transfer facility would not exceed City of
Santa Monica noise standards on an Leq basis. Additionally, as presented previously, City of Santa Monica Municipal
Code Noise Ordinance’s Section 4.12.060 subsection (c)(2) specifies that the Lmax noise level shall not exceed the
applicable decibel limits plus twenty (20) dBA for any period of time. Based upon the highest measured Lmax at the

mobile home park during tip and transfer activities (74.2. dBA, during trash piling as shown in Table 1) and the
City’s 5-minute noise standard plus 20 dBA, the Lmax noise level standard of 90 dBA would not be exceeded. The
analysis indicates that the activities at a relocated tip and transfer facility (at the SCD Lot) would not exceed City
of Santa Monica Noise Standards.

As shown in Table 6, the noise levels at the moblle home park were higher at the mobile home park during the
simulation of Hanson Lot activities than the measured reference noise levels at the Hanson Lot, indicating that the
the ambient noise in the project area (consisting primarily of noise from the nearby I-10 freeway and typical truck
movements in and around the southern portion of the City Yard and the SCD recycling facilities) were dominant.
In the same manner as was done for the Tip and Transfer Activities noise analysis, a composite Leq was calculated
for the queueing, movement and storage activities noise. The results are provided in Table 7. As shown in Table 7,
the proposed relocation of the queueing, movement and storage activities would not exceed City of Santa Monica
noise standards on an Leq basis. Additionally, based upon the highest measured Lmax at the mobile home park

during queueing, movement and storage activities (66.0. dBA, during dirt loading as shown in Table 2) and the
City’s 5-minute noise standard plus 20 dBA, the Lmax noise level standard of 90 dBA would not be exceeded. The
analysis indicates that the activities at a relocated queueing, movement and storage facility (at the Hanson Lot)
would not exceed City of Santa Monica Noise Standards. It should be noted that the calculations below do not
account for the proposed 12-foot high noise barrier proposed to be erected from the existing 14-foot high wall on
the SCD lot to the northeast corner of the Hanson lot.

Combined Activities Noise Levels
In order to assess on-site noise levels from combined overall transfer activities (i.e., composite tip and transfer
activities plus composite queuing, movement and storage activities), a Microsoft Excel–based outdoor sound
propagation prediction model was used to calculate the combined noise level from both activities at the nearby mobile
home park using several assumptions:
• Treatment of each major activity category (tip and transfer activities and queuing, movement and storage
activities) as point-type sound emission sources.
• Point-source sound propagation (i.e., 6 dB per doubling of distance) that conservatively ignores acoustical
absorption from atmospheric and ground surface effects.
• Point-source locations based upon observed activity locations during the noise measurements.
• Noise reduction due to acoustical shielding from structures other than the listed noise barriers was
conservatively neglected.
Using the aforementioned noise prediction model, and including the acoustical shielding provided by the existing
14-foot high existing noise barrier at the eastern boundary of the SCD lot as well as the proposed 12-foot high noise
barrier to be constructed at the eastern boundary of the Hanson lot, the combined noise levels from the on-site
equipment plus ambient noise levels at several locations within the mobile home park residential lot were assessed.
Two project operations scenarios were modeled:
• Scenario 1, in which tip and transfer activities would take place at the SCD Lot, and queueing, dirt dumping,
and dirt loading activities would take place at the Hanson Lot; and

• Scenario 2, in which tip and transfer activities and queueing, dirt dumping, and dirt loading activities would
all take place at the Hanson Lot.
These two scenarios were assessed using the base data derived from the noise measurements for compliance with
the City’s 15-minute Leq and 5-minute Leq noise standards. The results of the noise modeling is provided in graphical
format in Figures B-1 through B-4, and the resulting noise levels at the mobile home park are summarized in Table 8.
As shown in Table 8, the composite noise levels for both modeled project scenarios (Scenario 1 and Scenario 2) would
not exceed either of the City’s noise standards, with construction of the proposed 12-foot high noise barrier.

Noise Mitigation
Based upon the noise measurements conducted on June 10, 2021 and December 10, 2021 in which noise
measurements were conducted at the proposed new locations (the SCD lot and the Hanson Lot) for transfer
activities while simultaneous noise measurements took place at the nearest noise-sensitive land uses (the adjacent
Mountain View Mobile Inn), as well as the analyses and modeling, the proposed relocation would not exceed City of
Santa Monica noise standards, nor would it result in a substantial noise increase. Therefore, noise mitigation
(beyond the existing noise barrier between the SCD lot and the mobile home park to the east) would not be
necessary, provided that the activities measured are representative of the proposed activities.

SERVICE AGREEMENT
BY AND BETWEEN
CITY OF SANTA MONICA AND
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA DISPOSAL COMP ANY
This Service Agreement is entered into on 2.. ,!i day of fe_ce,..k-.r, 2008 (''Execution
Date"), by and between the CITY OF SANTA MONICA, a California municipal corporation
("City"), and SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA DISPOSAL COMP ANY, a California corporation
("Contractor" or "SCD"), with respect to the following:
RECITALS:
A. City is a municipal corporation duly organiz~d and validly existing under the laws
of the State of Califo~a with the power to carry on its business as it is now being conducted
under the statutes of the State of California and the Charter of City.
B. Pursuant to the Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 ("AB 939"), as
amended, Public Resources Code Sections 40000 et seq., the Legislature of the State of
California established a solid waste management process which requires cities and other local
jurisdictions to implement plans for source reduction, reuse and recycling. The City has been
conducting solid waste activities through its Solid Waste Management Division in accordance
with state law.
C. On or about February 11, 2003, the Santa Monica City Council unanimously
adopted the Santa Monica Sustainable City Plan ("Sustainable Plan"), which was thereafter
revised on October 24, 2006. The Sustainable Plan; as rev1sed, constitutes a comprehensive
update and expansion of the Sustainable City Program adopted by the City Council in•I994. The
Transfer Station Facility and Self Haul Facility, as described further herein, are intended to
function in coordination with the Recycling and Drop Off Center, also described further herein,
to meet the overall objective of reaching the diversion goals as set forth in the Sustainable Plan,
and in accordance with the California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) standard,
as soon as practical. As of the Execution Date, the City's diversion goal is seventy percent
(70%) by the year 2010.
D. Contractor is a corporation duly organized and in good standing in the State of
California. Contractor represents that it is duly licensed by the State of California and has the
background, knowledge, experience and expertise to perform the obligations set forth in this
Agreement. Contractor currently owns and operates a private solid waste transfer station
located at 1908 Frank Street, Santa Monica ("SCD Transfer Station"). The SCD Transfer Station
is located on real property owned by the Contractor, and also located across the street from the
City's Solid Waste Transfer Facility.
E. The City is the owner of real property located at the Santa Monica City Yards
utilized, in part, as a municipal Solid Waste Transfer Facility and Recycling Center. For the past
three years, the City has conducted public study sessions to examine ways to improve municipal
solid waste transfer operations, recycling operations, and commercial collections.
3.A.f
Packet Pg. 468 Attachment: SCD Contract and Modifications for Solid Waste Transfer Services (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
F. On or about January 22, 2007, the City issued a Request for Proposals for
Contract Services for Transfer Services for Recycling and Disposal ("Recycling and Transfer
RFP"), which solicited multiple options in connection with the recycling operations, solid waste
transfer operations, and commercial collection. Concurrently, the City issued a Request for
Proposals for Contract Services for Commercial Collection ("Commercial Collection RFP").
Through the Recycling and Transfer RFP, and the Commercial Collection RFP, the City sought
to examine ways to improve the recycling operations, solid waste transfer operations,
commercial collection, and various other issues related to recycling and municipal solid waste
operations.
G. In response to the Recycling and Transfer RFP, the City received proposals from
· the City's Solid Waste Management Division and from private contractors, including the
Contractor herein. SCD's proposal included, in part, the consolidation of the municipal solid
waste into SCD's Transfer Station as such consolidation would significantly reduce local traffic
and would be authorized within the tonnages permitted by SCD's current Solid Waste Facility
Permit.
H. The Santa Monica City Council held a public hearing on October 30, 2007, and at
the hearing, instructed staff to explore the formation of a private public partnership for recycling
and solid waste transfer services. Thereafter, on November 27, 2007, the City Council awarded
commercial collection service to the Solid .Waste Management Division. At a subsequent
hearing on May 22, 2008, the City Council authorized discussions with SCD for SCD to perform
municipal solid waste transfer services at an expanded SCD Transfer Station, and to operate the
self-haul services. The City Council also authorized discussions with another contractor,
Cederwood-Young, doing business as Allan Company, for recycling operations at a reconfigured
site of a portion of the City Yards.
I. Accordingly, the City and Contractor desire to enter into this Service Agreement
for the Contractor to provide the solid waste transfer services and self-haul services as set forth
herein.
J. Independent of this Services Agreement, SCD intends to and will file an
application to expand its existing SCD Transfer Station as follows: SCD will remove the north
wall of the existing two-sided metal panel building and expand the tipping floor to the north.
The expanded transfer station building will be, at a minimum, a larger three sided metal panel
building with an open front (eastern) face. An extension of the south wall of the building is
proposed to be provided to the east and will serve as a screen wall for traffic along the Santa
Monica Freeway. This SCD Transfer Station expansion is functionally independent of the solid
waste transfer services and self-haul services that would be contemplated by this Service
Agreement. In addition, the performance of these services is not a reasonably foreseeable
consequence of SCD's expansion.
K. In addition to the other contingencies identified in this Services Agreement, any
provision of the solid waste transfer services and self-haul services and any construction of the
facilities thereto completed as part of this Services Agreement will also be contingent upon

all necessary approvals required by Applicable Laws, the expiration of the applicable period for
any challenge to the adequacy of the City's compliance with CEQA, as well as the approval for
the funding of any public improvements on the City Yards and adjacent public property and
appropriation of such funding. Any provision of the solid waste transfer services and self-haul
services and construction of facilities thereto contemplated as part of this Service Agreement
shall not commence unless and until the City's compliance.with CEQA is completed and there is
no possibility of a challenge to CEQA. Neither party is bound to proceed under this Services
Agreement unless and until the City's compliance with CEQA is completed and there is no
possibility of a challenge pursuant to CEQA. ·

the City or for issuance of a default for cause by the City .
. 2 Initiation of Dispute Resolution Procedure. In the event of a Contract Dispute, either
party will submit a written notice of a statement of contract dispute setting forth the details of the
dispute along with any supplementary facts relating thereto. The other party shall provide a
written response thereto within thirty days upon receipt of the written statement. The parties shall
comply with each of the following steps in the Contract Dispute Resolution Process in the
sequence in which they appear below. Unless City and Contractor agree otherwise in writing,
the good faith efforts of a party who is a proponent of a Contract Dispute shall comply with the
requirements of a step in the Contract Dispute Resolution Process as a condition precedent to the
right of that party to proceed to the next step in the process.
A. First Step: Service Level Negotiations. The service representatives of City
and Contractor shall meet as soon ~ possible (but not later than 7 Days after receipt of a
Contract Dispute Statement) in a good faith effort to negotiate a resolution to the Contract
Dispute. Contractor shall be represented by a service level representative in a supervisory
capacity, and the City shall be represented by division manager of the services·. Upon
completion of the meeting, if the Contract Dispute is not resolved, then the 'parties may continue
the negotiations to the next level.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
OF THE TRANSFER STATION AND THE SELF HAUL FACILITY . .
1. Transfer Station
Contractor is independently responsible for the design and construction of its SCD
Transfer Station expansio.i:i on its land as set forth in Recital J, above. However, the City will
have design input so as to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the SCD Transfer ~tation and
City owned sites. SCD shall operate the Transfer Station in accordance with this Agreement and
SCD will modify the expanded Transfer Station as set forth below:
A. The transfer station may incorporate architectural enhancements to the
existing facility that would help achieve the City's desired LEED Silver certification.
B. "Acceptable Material Waste is to be unloaded on the tipping floor and
stockpiled inside the building for transfer. Clean loads of select recyclable materials such
as construction and demolition debris·or green waste, as well as recyclable materials
pulled from the mixed.waste, may be stockpiled separately inside 'the _building for
separate load-out and shipment for further processing and "recovery: Food waste will also
be received at the station and loaded out separately for delivery to a processing faciHty.
Upon completing the unloading process, exiting vehicles that do not have an established
tare weight will weigh· on the dedicated outbound scale.
C. A top loading transfer port exists along the south wall of the building. It is
accessed by transfer tractor-trailer rigs that back down a ramp inside the building.
2. Self Haul Faf;ility
The self haul facility is envisioned· to. be east of the transfer station on the east side of
Frank Street. Inbound public customers will use the new inbound scale on Frank Street prior to
entering the self haul unloading and transfer area. The land and permanent structures will be
owned by the City. All mobile and stationary equipment (loaders, forklifts, sorting lines, scales,
etc.) will be owned by SCD who will operate the facility. ·
The self haul area will be, at a minimum, a semi-enclosed area where customers can
access and unload their materials in designated areas or containers. The designated areas or
containers for. unloading recyclable materials such as construction and demolition waste, green
waste, and inerts, will be provided separate from the area where mixed non-recyclable waste
materials will be unloaded and stockpiled. Non-recyclable _self haul materials will be loaded into
vehicles for shipment and disposal. Recyclable materials will be loaded into vehicles and
shipped for further processing and recycling. The majority of the s_elfhaul area is expected to be
underlain by old land filled materials. The load-out structure may need to be supported on piles
or over-excavated landfill materials replaced with structural backfill.

3.A.f
Packet Pg. 514 Attachment: SCD Contract and Modifications for Solid Waste Transfer Services (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
Upon .completion of the unloading process, self haul customers will exit across the
transfer station outbound scale, along with un-tared transfer station customers, for weighing and
payment. A dedicated fire lane will be provided for access to the residential area to the
southeast.
The City is responsible for design, permitting, and construction of improvements on its
land. However, SCD will have design input and the parties will work together to ensure the safe
and efficient operation of the SCD and City sites. In any case, the City will have final decision
authority regarding design of facilities on its land; and likewise SCD will have final decision
authority regarding design of facilities on its land.

TRANSFER/PROCESSING REPORT
SCD RECYCLING AND TRANSFER STATION
SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA
1.0. INTRODUCTION AND-PURPOSE
This Transfer/Processing Report (TPR) for SCD's large volume transfer and i:ecycling
facility has been prepared in accordance with Section 17403.9 of Title 14 of the
California Code of Regulations.
This TPR update is for the transfer station expansion proposed in October 2008. The
proposed addition of approximately 7,000 square feet of tipping floor area to the transfer
station will not increase the amount of solid waste being processed at the facility but will
allow the facility to achieve a higher diversion rate due to increased sorting areas and a
more efficient storage system.
2.0. FACILITY PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION, LOCATION AND SURROUNDINGS
The SCD Recycling and Transfer Station (SCDRTS) is owned and operated by Luke
Kardashian and Mike Matosian, and is located at 1908 Frank Street, Santa Monica. The
9,600 square foot covered transfer station occupies a 28,200 sf (0.65 acre) parcel of land
on the west side of Frank Street. An associated 14,500 sf gravel-surfaced parcel, which is
and will continue to be used for circulation, parking and storage, is located on the east
side of Frank Street across from the transfer _station (See Appendix A for Site Plan).
Figure I shows the location of the SCDRTS north ofthe Santa Monica(I-10) Freeway
and west of Frank Street. The property is located on· "back" streets, is visually screened
from the adjacent freeway and secluded from major avenues such as Pico and Olympic
Boulevards. Despite this visual seclusion, the site has excellent freeway access through
commercial and industrial zoned areas via the Cloverfield Boulevard freeway off-ramps.
As shown in Figure 2, within a 1,000-foot radius of the site the area north of the Santa
Monica Freeway·is comprised of various zones. The SCD facility, as well as other areas,
have been re-zoned to Light Manufacturing (M-1) and Studio District (LMSD). The
adjacent City of Santa Monica Yard is zoned Light Manufacturing (M-1). The local.park
is zoned Designated Park (DP); and the nearby mobile home park is zoned Residential
Mobile Home Park (RMHP). The area south of the freeway remains zoned Low Density
Multiple Resiclential (R2).
SCD owns other related facilities within a l,000-foo~ radius of the station as shown on
the Land Use/Ownership exhibit in Appendix A. These facilities include: a vacant 7,850
square foot (0.17. acre) parcel adjaceni to, and north of, the transfer station on which the
expansion is proposed, a 0.33-acre gravel-surfaced yard across Frank Street from the

station (this yard may be used for truck queuing and storage); a 0.11-acre storage yard
west of the station on the east side of Delaware Avenue; a 0.53-acre main yard and office
further to the south on the north side of Delaware A venue; and a 1.5-acre vacant
industrial facility on the north side of Michigan A venue.
Generalized land use is shown in Figure 3. Several other structures are proximal to the.
SCDRTS site: To the west of the subject property is a pest control service facility
operated by Dewey Pest Control, Inc. To the south and along the entire southern border
of the property is the Santa Monica (I-1O) Freeway. To the east is Frank Street North-
east across from this street is a rock-crushing facility. Further to the north and north-
west, directly across Delaware Street, is the Santa Monica City Public Works Yard and
Transfer Station.
Also to the north, at the southwest corner of Frank Street and Delaware A venue~ is a
vacant lot. This lot will be used for the proposed expansion of the transfer station.
Finally, a portion of a residential mobile home park is located within 1,000 feet of the
transfer station, to the east near Stewart Street. It should be noted that the 1,000 foot
impact zone of the SCDRTS almost wholly.coincides with the impact zone of the existing
City of Santa Monica Refuse Transfer Station, which is currently operating as a large
volume transfer/processing facility, and no substantial new areas are impacted.
Therefore, the adjacent zoning and surrounding land uses are compatible with the
proposed facility.
Typical above-grade power and telephone lines run onto the property from the east.
Additionally sewer and water lines run below grade along Frank Street. Appendix A
contains a copy of the Site Plan which shows the locations of on-site structures and uses.
Clim!:ltic conditions prevailing at the station location are excellent, with generally no
rainfall from March until November and with fil1 average of about 12 inches of rainfall
•from November to April. Winds during most of the year are southwest to west-
southwest, except during· "Santa Ana" wind conditions, when they come from the east.
Wind velocity rarely exceeds 10 knots except during "Santa Ana" conditions where they
may occasionally gust. Appendix C contains a wind rose chart depicting mean wind
velocity and direction data expected at the site.
The entire SCDRTS property is bordered with block walls and security fences with
openings protected by heavy rollinR gates which will be kept locked at all times other
than during normal business hours. As part of the proposed transfer station expansion,
the existing screen wall along the I-10 Freeway will be _extended to the east
approximately 200 linear feet, new walls will constructed around the north and west
elevations of the proposed transfer station addition, and a new fence/wall will be
constructed along the property's Delaware Avenue frontage. The site will be safely

Packet Pg. 523 Attachment: SCD Contract and Modifications for Solid Waste Transfer Services (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
enclosed during non-operating hours and screened from view along its most visible
boundaries. ·
The facility consists of a fully-covered tipping floor and transfer truck pit area, a yard,
and a scale (see Appendix A -Site Plan). A lighting system provides a minimum of 30 ·
foot candles throughout the interior of the facility. To keep process materials such as
waste and reclaimed materials from absorbing any outside precipitation, the stations
roofing extends from the station floor to the transfer truck pit, and roof coverage also
incl1:1des the transfer ramp to avoid any possibility of water accumulation. (Any sheet
flow down the entrance to the ramp is collected by a trench drain at the edge of the roof
covering and drained away from the pit).
Due to the trapezoidal geometry of the lot, the 9,600 sf transfer and recycling building is
not quite rectangular, but measures roughly 70 feet by 113 feet. The proposed expansion
of the transfer station will add approximately 7,000 square feet of covered tipping floor
area to the existing facility. New walls will enclose the north and west elevations of the
proposed transfer station addition and the existing rooflines will be continued and
extended over the proposed addition. The east elevation of the proposed transfer station
will remain open. The new tipping floor area will be used for sorting recyclable
materials, and will contain bunkers for C&D, and greenwaste. Also, separate areas for E-
waste, tires and appliances will be located adjacent to the new tipping area.
As fully discussed in Section 6.0, the steady-state maximum load capacity of the facility
is approximately 1,056 tons~pet-day (TPD), assuming 12 hours continuous operation with
ideal loading conditions. Theoretically, by incr~asing operating hours the facility has a
maximum daily load capacity and maximum peak load capacity of approximately 2, 112
TPD. The expected average daily capacity however, is limited by externalities such as
landfill accessibility. Most landfills are· only open 8 -IO hours a day and access to them is
dependent upon highly variable traffic conditions.
In addition to the trucks and other vehicles used by the general public, vehicles operated
at the SCDRTS consist of four loaders (one of which may be held off-site in reserve),
seven ACE 100-cubic yard (cy) semi-trailers with load-gauges and specially fitted tarps
for transferring Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) to landfills and recyclable and
compostable material to processing facilities. The site also contains a 40-ft computerized
truck scale, a set of transfer truck axle scales located in the transfer truck pit, a 5cy
stationary compactor with a JO cy pre-compaction chamber and a number of various
storage bins for storing reclaimed materials. Much of this equipment is kept nearby at
SCD's existing yard on Delaware Street. Should any equipment fail at the station, a back-
up may be readily used or dispatched from the Delaware site, or from Sam's U-Rent, .
located 6-7 minutes away at 113 71 Pico Boulevard in West Los Angeles.

3.0 RECYCLING AND TRANSFER PROCESS AND POLLUTION CONTROL
Collection vehicles carrying lo.ads of MSW, greenwaste and C&D debris arrive via
Delaware Avenue. Trucks pull into'the facility through the Frank Street gate and onto the
inbound scale ..
Most collection vehicle's tare weights are kept on record so that the weight of the truck
may be automatically deducted from the gross weight on the computerized scale reading.
While the collection vehicle is on the scale, th~ supervisor records the number of the
collection vehicle, notes the route (for SCD vehicles) and type of waste, and after the ·
weight of waste is determined, the supervisor instructs the driver to deliver the load to the
appropriate area of the transfer station tipping floor, such as MSW, greenwaste, C&D,
foodwaste and electronics. Foodwaste will be loaded into a covered and sealed roll-off
container located next to the transfer ramp.
If, for any reason, the supervisor suspec~s that any hazardous wastes might be present in
the collection vehicle on the tipping floor, he or she will follow the Hazardous Waste
Mitigation and Removal procedure outlined in Section 5.1. As also outlined in Section
5 .1, no materials are collected or transferred that are suspected of being hazardous,
contaminated, or toxic. Similarly, liquids, dead animals, infectious hospital wastes, septic
tank pumpings, pesticides, chemical and radioactive wastes are not permitted to be
collected or to enter the SCDRTS by any means.
After the collection truck driver has emptied the load of municipal solid waste (MSW)
onto the appropriate area on the tipping floor, the waste is positioned by a wheeled loader . . .
according to the type and composition of the load .. Collection vehicles with recorded tare
weights will exit the facility directly after dumping. Those few without tare weights will
proceed over the scale for weighing out and payment of fees. Note that the majority of
self-haul vehicles will be tipping in a separate Self-Haul Facility across Frank Street.
This will.free up the transfer station for better traffic circulation. However, some self-
haul vehicles may be directed to the transfer station as appropriate.
With receipt of all tonnage froni the City of Santa Monica's transfer station, the
composition of material to be received at the SCDRTSis estimated as follows:
• 50% residential waste
• 40% commercial, and
• 10% light industrial,
SCD has the ability to divert up to 10% of its waste stream to secondary markets by floor
sorting of cardboard, metal and other easily reclaimable recyclables. These material are
placed in temporary storage drop boxes located inside the facility .. At the beginning of
each shift, partially filled boxes and/or boxes that take longer than one day to fiJI are
inspected and replacement bins are scheduled for delivery from the Delaware Site as
necessary. Once the drop boxes are appropriately filled, the boxes are taken across
DelawareAvenue to the City Recycling Center, or loaded onto a truck and driven to any
other. purchaser of reclaimed materials, as is most economical. A 5-cy stationary ,
7

Packet Pg. 526 Attachment: SCD Contract and Modifications for Solid Waste Transfer Services (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
compactor from Compaction Control Industries is provided that may be utilized for
baling materials into smaller, more manageable volumes (See Appendix A -Site plan). In
no case will storage of these materials exceed 14 days.
All members of the picking crew will wear safety goggles, safety vests, safety gloves,
and ear/respiratory protection, as is prudent when noisy or dusty conditions develop. In
addition, backup alarms are installed on the skip loader and collection trucks for the
protection of the workers on the station floor. In event of large amounts of recyclables
removed from the waste stream, the full, covered boxes may be properly and securely
stored at off-site SCD facilities, along with other empty drop boxes used by SCD
collection operations for emergency storage, until a truck can be dispatched to deliver the
materials to the proper recycling operation.
To complete the transfer of the waste onto the landfill-bound vehicles, the tractor-trailers
proceed to the eastern gate on Delaware A venue and onto the project site. The transfer
trucks will be queued east of the transfer pit and, once cleared by a spotter, will back into
the pit for loading. The site accommodates queuing of eight trailers. After backing into
the transfer pit, the waste is loaded into the trailer from above by the skip-loaders. When
each trailer has been filled to capacity (as determined by the axle scales) the load is
covered by a hydraulically-operated enclosure screen assembly; artd the trailer exits the
facility via the eastern gate to Delaware Avenue and to the I-10 Freeway. All MSW is
driven to a designated permitted sanitary landfill for disposal; These may include:
Puente Hills, Sunshine Canyon, or other landfills. When the next empty trailer has been
moved into place, the loading cycle continues.
As is the standard practice at most transfer stations, available trailers are filled at the end
of the day for purposes of early dispatch on the morning of the following workday. All
waste is held for less than 24 hours, and is removed on a daily basis.
The proposed station site is paved with concrete suitably sloped for runoff of water, in
accordance with the city approved grading plan. As previously stated, all waste is isolated
by a roof over the tipping floor, pit and ramp. With this design, there is no contact or
process water or leachate which might enter the soil underlying the station nor is there
any drainage from the property.
4.0. OPERATIONS
The SCDRTS is permitted to operated from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday
however, actual operations for receiving materials, processing, and transferring will occur
from 5 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Depending on workload, the facility
may even operate shorter hours. The facility is closed Sundays and the following major
holidays: New Year's Day, Memorial Day, the 4th ofJuly, Labor Day, Thanksgiving
Day, and Christmas Day. This operating period·is set around the operating hours oflocal
sanitary landfills. After all waste is accepted from the collection trucks, the last hour of
each day is spent dry sweeping the tipping floor, cleaning the yard as necessary, and

filling available trailers. for the next day's trip. It should be noted that no water is brought
into the pit, ramp or transfer area.
Table I provides a forecast of the tonnage expected at the facility. It is assumed that the
material currently handled at the City of Santa Monica's transfer station will begin
flowing to SCD in 2010. This table was computed as an average, and took into
consideration seasonal and peak wec;:kend factors; which typically may boost daily
quantities 20:-25% for short periods of time. These fluctuations are not unusual, and ·are
consistent with the exponential anjval function used in transfer station queuing models.

A first aid kit, portable eyewash and a drinking fountain are provided adjacent to the
restrooms. In addition, a full complement of sanitary and comfort facilities are provided
for SCD employees at the Delaware yard which include first aid, locker rooms, shower
facilities, toilets, drinking water, vending machines and an eating room.
Standard OSHA-approved, industrial earplugs are available to employees and eye
protection required at all times. This facility does not generate unhealthful levels of noise
for people using the site or nearby residences. Similarly, on-site operations comply with
the City of Santa Monica Noise Contour limit of70 dBA at the lot line. Decibel ratings
for this equipment are listed in T_able II.
A preliminary noise analysis has been performed. The ambient noise study has indicated
that there is no need for any specific noise control designs and that the facility will
comply with community noise impact limits, Additionally, no noise complaints are
known to have been made regarding equipment engine noise or any other noise
originating from similar operations in the general area.

5. 0. LITTER AND VECTOR CONTROL AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
Litter control is primarily accomplished via the partial enclosure of the tipping floor by
walls on three sides. Prevailing south-westerly winds do not blow into the east-facing
open side of the tipping area and occasional north-easterly Santa Ana's are trapped by the
walls on the other three sides of the transfer area. Any waste that somehow leaves the
transfer area and escapes the yard is gathered from adjacent grounds and surrounding
streets and gutters by the litter picking crew at the end of daily operations.
A transfer trailer tarping program is used to mitigate the -possibility of litter being blown
out of the transfer vehicles. Each trailer is fitted with a specially fitted, hydraulically-
actuated tarp assembly that seals the top of the trailer from wind and precipitation. The
assembly is kept closed on SCD transfer-trailers, except when loading or when transfer-
·trailers are empty. Other collection vehicles are to comply with appropriate State
regulations.
Vector control is accomplished by proper and sanitary housekeeping. lbis activity
includes keeping the area swept clean and cleaning off the tipping floor at the end of each
shift. Additionally, rodent traps may be placed at strategic locations;'however, there is
currently no evidence of rodent or insect control problems in or near this facility. For
vector inspection and control purposes, specialists at Dewey Pest Control (located
immediately adjacent to the SCDRTS) are on call, and can quickly respond to pr~blem_s.
Odor control is managed by the immediate transfer of any materials noticed tc:i be
particularly foul, and by proper and sanitary housekeeping which includes daily cleaning
of the facility. In addition, an odor and dust suppression misting system has been
installed as detailed in Section.5.4.
Emergency procedl.µ'es for the possibility of receiving hazardous waste at the facility,
equipment breakdown and fire are summarized separately below. Emergency operation
of the facility does not depend upon electric energy, so electric power failure does not
constitute an emergency situation, but merely an inconvenience.
Dust control is exercised as another basic housekeeping procedure. Any loads noticed to
have unusually low moisture content or indicated by the dryer to contain dry soil or other
dusty materials are lightly sprayed with water during dumping so that dust will not be
created in pushing the material on the tipping floor or emptying into the transfer trailer in -
the pit below. In addition, a dust suppression misting system has been installed as
detailed in Section 5.4. At no time will any part of the waste be al_lowed to become
saturated with water, and no runoff water will be create<:! as the added w~ter is absorbed
into the waste. Workers are required to wear dust masks.
5.1. HAZARDOUS WASTE MITIGATION AND REMOVAL PROCEDURE
With respect to the detrimental effects that improper handling of hazardous waste can
bring to human health and the environment, a stringent Hazardous Waste Mitigation

Program has been adopted at SCDRTS. This program seeks to mitigate the transfer of
hazardous waste to landfills by publicly discouraging the improper disposal of hazardous
waste and-by the implementation ofa Hazardous Waste Screening_Program.
Public discouragement of improper disposal of hazardous wastes is accomplished as
follows: First, each SCD collection container has been marked with the following
warning: "TRASH ONLY -NO CHEMICALS OR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS, ·No
LIQUIDS, NO DRUMS, NO CONTAINERS." Second, pictorial warnings that do not
require knowledge of English complement the aforementioned written warning. Third,
each SCD customer is verbally and contractually warned of the clear liability associated
with the improper placing of toxic wastes.
In addition to marking each SCD collection container and to further discourage and
mitigate the possibility of hazardous wastes being transferred to a landfill, there is a sign
at the c:mtrance to the SCDRTS that reads, "Trash.only -No chemical or hazardous
materials, no liquids, no drums, no containers". In addition, a Hazardous Waste
Screening Program is in effect at all ti_mes at the SCDRTS. This program is comprised of
two types of scre~ning: Point of Collection and Point of Transfer.
The SCDRTS Hazardous Waste Screening Program begins with proper SCD employee
training in Hazardous Waste Recognition. Each SCD employee involved with collecting,
hauling, recycling, or otherwise handling MSW is trained to be aware of and to recognize
common hazardous waste warning signs such as closed containers, unusual odors,
smokes, reactions, objects that 'appear to be unusually packaged, or objects that are
obviously seen as contaminated or hazardous. In addition, workers are traine4-in
handling hazardous waste and are specifically observant to common hazardous wastes
such as motor oil, dead animals, infectious hospital waste, sewage sludge, septic tank
pumpings, pesticides, chemical waste and any other types of liquid or sludge materials.
Screening at the Point of Collection is prin;iarily .accomplished by the SCD Collection
Vehicle Operators, who will refuse taking any containers recognized or suspected of
containing Hazardous, Contaminated, or Toxic materia_ls. ,A.11 employees involved with
the collection of waste are required to have training in Hazardous Waste Recognition and
Handling techniques, as described above. ·
Point of Transfer Screening will include a radiation detector, permanently located at the
scale area, which will operate at all times to detect any radioactive material in the
incoming waste toads. However, most screening· is primarily accomplished. by random
sampling of incoming loads; The Random Load Checking Program is in effect on the
tipping floor of the transfer station to provide further insurance against the possibility of
hazardous materials being transferred to landfill-bound vehicles.
The procedure for selecting and checking loads is as follows: As one of the duties of the
safety manager, nyo half-hour intervals wiU be selected by a statistical random process
each day. At the beginning of the first shift, this information will be forwarded to the.
Station Supervisor who then directs the first load arriving after the randomly selected

time period to be spread out in a clear area of the transfer station. The waste is then
checked for signs of hazardous materials. If the load is large or intricate, recycling
personnel familiar with hazardous waste recognition and handling techniques will assist
the Supervisor in inspecting the waste. In all inspections, the waste will be turned over or
sifted to ensure that .it may be carefully rechecked before being returned to the waste
stream. The successful implementation of this internal Random Load Checking program,
in combination with the aforementioned Point of Collection mitigation procedures .
outlined above should sufficiently decrease the likelihood of inadvertently transferring
any hazardous, contaminated or toxic materials. Table III lists the agencies to be notified
in case of a problem.

NUMBER
Although the SCD Hazardous Waste Screening Program should reduce the amount of
toxins entering the property to near zero, the possibility will always exist that hazardous
or toxic wastes may be discovered at the SCDRTS. In consideration of this unknown
amount of hazardous material being present, SCD has adopted a specifi~ Hazardous
Waste Removal Procedure to be put into effect whenever any material is discovered that
is suspected of being hazardous or toxic.
The first step of the procedure is to isolate the suspected materials _from all other waste
while the Supervisor is quickly notified. Second, the area is placed off-limits for all
workers and trucks, the Los Angeles County Fire Department Hazardous Materials Unit,
and the City of Santa Monica Fire _Department are notified of what the waste is· suspected
to · be and it is determined if their services might be needed. If the material is then
positively identified as being ·hazardous, the material is removed under emergency
procedures into a 55-gallon drum or 6-millimeter plastic lined drop-box as is appropriate
for the site and nature of the waste, located in the 10 by 15 ft Hazardous Waste Isolation
Area delineated on the Site Plan, Appendix A. Each waste is contained in a separate
container so that hazard classes may be kept separate, unless the safety manager directs
that certain materials may be combined. In no instance shall incompatible wastes be

l .
mixed (e.g. acids and bases, oxidizers and reducing agents, cyanides and acids) or shall
containers be used that are lined with materials which may react the hazardous material.
The containment vessels will be inspected weekly to insure they are in a suitable
condition to contain liquids.
As prescribed by law, at no time will storage exceed 90 days before the waste is taken by
a Perniitted Hazardous Waste Hauler to a suitable .landfill. If information regarding
improper disposal becomes available through the Random Load Checking or Point of
Collection screening programs, th_e Station Supervisor wiil forward any information to
the County District Attorney arid the California Highway Patrol (CHP); and investigate if
the hazardous waste may be returned to the originator for proper disposition. .
In the event of a hazardous liquid spill, the liquid will immediately be isolated from any
materials with which it may possibly react and will be contained under the direction of
the Safety Manager with vermiculite or another approved containment agent so that it
may be gatJ::iered into a hazardous material container, be identified and labeled, and be
properly disposed ofby a licensed and permitted hazardous waste hauler.
In any case wher~ hazardous waste is screened out of the waste stream; it will be
m!:lflifested with the SCD's pre-assigned Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Small
Quantity Hazardous Waste Generator (HWG) number (CALOOO139938) for tracking,
handling,.storage, transportation, and disposal.
5.2. EQUIPMENT BREAKDOWN
Under normal circumstances, breakdown of any critical equipment at the Recycling and
Transfer Station does not constitute an emergency condition because backup equipment
is maintained at the parent facility down the street. However, should multiple equipment
failures occur simultaneously, backup equipment may be easily obtained from Sam's U-
Drive, located 6-7 minutes away at 11371 Pico Boulevard in West Los Angeles. In the
event of electrical power failure, an on-site backup generator will provide sufficient
electrical power to continue operations.
5.3. FIRE IN THE WA.STE
Should there be a fire or smoldering of any of the waste dumped on the tipping floor, the
loader operator (trained prior to assignment in proper procedures to handle burning
waste) safely isolates the burning material to any available, separate, clear area outside of
the building. Other personnel immediately notify the Station Supervisor, who informs
the fire department then comes on scene·to take initial cfiarge of fire extinguishing
procedures,· as appropriate. From a safe distance away, other personnel may activate 100
ft long, one inch diameter fire hose reels fitted with adjustable heads, ranging from solid
stream to spray, until the fire department arrives to take control of fire-fighting.
If the fire appears that it might spread beyond the ability of the on-site fire suppressive
capabilities, the Supervisor directs that the Fire Department be updated of the status of
13
3.A.f
Packet Pg. 532 Attachment: SCD Contract and Modifications for Solid Waste Transfer Services (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
the emergency, if not yet on the premises. In instances of any danger to the personnel or
facility, the Company Safety Manager will join the Supervisor at the scene to assist in
managing the emergency. After the fire has been extinguished, the waste is allowed to
remain separate for several hours to insure that it cools and that there is no chance or
flaring up or spreading to other waste on the tipping floor.
SCD employees are trained in the use of a fire extinguisher and the hose reel by the City
of Santa Monica Fire Department. In instances where the Fire Department is notified,
fire-fighting staff with a complete line of protective gear will arrive in 3.5 minutes. All
emergency procedures are practiced at least once per month by assigned personnel as a
drill.
5.4 ODOR AND DUST CONTROL.
A misting system has been installed to mitigate/control odor and dust. The system
consists of one high-pressure pump unit, double-filtered with one ph9sphate and one five.,
micron cartridge, 1,000 psi operating pressure, 7.5 hp, 220-volt thermally protected motor
rubber-mounted on an aluminum sub-frame, with fiberglass enclosure, auto drain valve,
low water pressure safety_ switch .. Attached in the appropriate areas approximately 30
feet high is 350 feet of 3/8 stainless steel tubing which covers the transfer station tipping
floor with nozzles 24" on center. The system also includes one Dosatron chemical
injector to inject appropriate odor control chemicals, and a time clock (timer) to ruri the
system automatically with an over-ride switch to operate the system manually,-if
necessary. An Alternate Odor Management Plan is included as Appendix D.
6.0. SCDRTS CAPACITY
RECEIVING
bi early 2006, SCD performed three days of monitoring of collection trucks from the City
of Los Angeles (COLA) during the busiest days and hours at the SCD transfer station.
D1,lring these periods, the facility averaged about 15 COLA trucks and 82 tons per hour.
The average total time on she from start of queuing for the scale to final exit averaged
about 12 minutes per truck. Even at these heaviest use periods, the.facility was operating
in a free flow mode, with no delays, and spare capacity for addition trucks.
Given that ·the facility with the expansion has five unloading positions, the above
information suggests that each could handle five trucks per hour at maximum throughput
capacity; for a total of25 trucks per hour. Based on the average truck payload during the
survey of 5.64 tons, the facility could theoretically handle a steady-state flow of 25 trucks
x 5.64 tons= 141 tons per hour. This is well above the receiving and transfer tonnage
necessary to run the facility, even at maximum permitted volumes.
LOAD OUT
The peak load and maximum daily load capacity may be estimated with a simple
calculation of average service time for the tractor trailers. The time necessary for a tractor
14
3.A.f
Packet Pg. 533 Attachment: SCD Contract and Modifications for Solid Waste Transfer Services (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
l
I
j
J
trailer to be filled is broken down into three parts: positioning time, filling time, and
exiting _time. According to the design engineer of the facility, a minimum of 1 minute will
be needed to move a transfer vehicle out of the pit and out of the way of the queue.
Another 6 minutes will be required to bring-an empty tractor trailer out of the queue (if
there are any other trucks waiting) and into the position for receiving waste. This
positioning time has been accomplished in the field to the satisfaction of the design
engineer. Another 8 minutes will be required for filling the trailer from above with
double skip loaders, after the trailer is in position. Thus, the total minimum time of
completing one load is 15 minutes, for a maximum of four loads per hour, which was the
intention ofthe·design engineer in the design of the facility.
Therefore, the peak load capacity Cd is limited as follows:
Cd= 22 Tons/load *4 loads/hour * 12 hours/shift
Cd= 1,056 Tons/shift
Theoretically, th_e steady-state daily load capacity (24 hours) of this operatio~ would
iricrease proportionately to 2,112 TPD in continuous operation, if lanpfills were available.
This equaies to a loadout capacity of 88 tons per hour (TPH).
7.0 UNUSUAL PEAK LOADINGS
Should any unusual peak days be forecasted or experienced, three measures will be taken:
1. All available tractor-trailer sets are placed in operation;
2. An extra skip-loader is placed into operation;
3. Trailers are loaded as readily as possible, and queuing is coordinated by
the Station Supervisor. · ·
If further measures are deemed necessary, loads containing a high degree of inert
materials such as construction or demolition debris may bypass the transfer station and
proceed directly to the nearest landfill. Also, trailers may be filled at the end of each shift
and dispatched early the next morning, as is the case at most transfer stations.
8.0 ASHES AND RESIDUES
Ashes and other possible hazardous wastes will not be transferred at this facility. If any
ashes or other possibly hazardous materials are encouniered, the aforementioned
Hazardous Waste Procedure will be followed.
9.0 QUENCH AND PROCESS WATER
No combustion processing is performed at this fac_ility, thus no quench water will be
created. Process water will similarly not be created as no water is used in conjunction
15
3.A.f
Packet Pg. 534 Attachment: SCD Contract and Modifications for Solid Waste Transfer Services (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
with the transfer process at the facility. Since all operations are conducted under the roof
covering, runoff water such as rain will not come into contact with any waste. Also, no
wash water is created as loaders, trailers, and other equipment are not washed or
maintained on the premises.
10.0 MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION
Appendix B depicts the organizational arrangement within the Southern California
Disposal corporate structure for management and operation of the SCDRTS. In addition
to the management, supervisory and administrative personnel, an average of three
individuals will be engaged in the transfer operation, with another two involved with the
recycling operation.

This section discusses how the facility will be designed_ and operated to meet State
Minimum Standards relating to transfer stations, Title 14, Section 17406.1 et. seq.
CLEANING
Litter crews police the site daily, and will clean all paved are~, driveways, and the
frontage sections along Frank and Delaware Streets as needed. In addition, the baler and
other stationary equipment is cleaned by hand of accumulated dirt and debris on an "as
needed" basis. This is typically done using dry sweeping methods. The minimal amounts
of waster produced are absorbed in the residue ~aterial going to landfill, or simply
evaporates.

· See Section 5 .1.
This facility will not intentionally accept hazardous materials -including batteries, oil,
paint, and special wastes. The facility has implemented a load-checking program, and
procedures to handle hazardous material discovered on the tipping floor. The facility will
not accept liquid waste or_sludges.
The scale house will be equipped with a Geiger counter for detecting radioactive loads. In
the unlikely event that such a load is detected, it will be moved away from all personnel
and the LEA and County of Los Angeles Radiation Management Program notified
immediately ft~r further guidance and control actions ..
e-Waste is.accepted at the facility and stored in a designated bin; then hauled to a
certified eWaste pros;essor.
LITTER CONTROL
See Section 5.0. Litter will be controlled at the site in several ways: '
•
•
•
•
All unloading, processing and loading of material occurs within buildings
A litter crew polices the site once per day, or as needed, picking up litter
from the site. perimeter, driveways, and along the frontage
The City's mechanical street sweeper patrols the site area, cleaning paved
surfaces, driveways and the frontage along Frank Street on an as needed
·basis
A mandatory ·tarping policy is enforced requiring all incoming loads to be
covered. Measures for enforcement include warnings, refusal of loads,
and possible banning from the facility.
MEDICAL WASTES
The facility will knowingly accept no medical waste that has not been properly
autoclaved. If "red bag" medical waste is discovered, the California Department of
Health Services Medical Waste Program and the LEA will be called immediately, and the
material isolated to prevent contact with employees or users of the facility.
NON-SAL VAGEABLEITEMS
Drugs, cosmeti~s, foods, beverages, hazardous wastes, poisons, medical supplies or
syringes, needles, pesticides and other materials capable of causing health or safety
problems will not be salvaged. All employees will be trained in this regard.
MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
17
3.A.f
Packet Pg. 536 Attachment: SCD Contract and Modifications for Solid Waste Transfer Services (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
A preventative maintenance program for equipment has been implemented at the facility
to ensure the-reliability of all equipment and vehicles. The schedule is as follows:
• Loaders and Forklifts: every 250 hours
• Trailers: weekly ~rake examination and adjustment; welding as needed
• Compactor: monthly inspection and service
Maintenance of transfer trucks and mobile equipment occurs off site at the SCD Corporate
yard, located on 24th Street a block away. . ·
A comprehensive station maintenance program has been implemented at the facility. The
program features a Self-Inspection Checklist, which is completed on a regular basis. The
Checklist entails the monitoring of the General Work Environment, Worker Right-To-
Know, Hazardous Waste Procedures, Personal Protective Equipment, Facility Equipment,
and Facility Structure Evaluation. Elements of the Self-Inspection Checklist are
monitored on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Items found to be in need of
maintenance are brought to the attention of the Facility Manager.
PROTECTION OF USERS
The majority of loads delivered.by the public in their own vehicles wIII now be tipped in
the new Self-Haul Facility across Frank Street. This will help keep them separated from
the large collection trucks that will be using the transfer station. Some, however, will still
be directed to the transfer station as appropriate, but will be closely directed by the
spotters to ensure that they are separated from the collection trucks.
Commercial haulers will be directed by the scalehouse operator to a certain area of the
transfer station tipping floor depending on the type of material in the load. The
commercial haulers will typically be repeat customers and will therefore be familiar with
onsite traffic circulation, tipping areas and procedure.
SCAVENGING AND SALVAGING
Scavenging is prohibited. Salvaging of recoverable-material such as cardboard, wood,
glass, paper, and metal is an integral part of the operation. This salvaging is confined to
specific areas of the site as noted on the Site Plan. Storage areas for salvaged materials

b. Community Coordinator
At SCD the community coordinator is Mike Matosian.
c. Complaint Response Protocol
If an odor complaint is received, staff will go to the location of the complaint to
verify the presence and intensity of the odors within two ltours of the complaint.
If the odor can be detected at the complainant's home or business, staff will trace
the odor by conducting a survey of odor checks around the_ general vicinity. The
survey will be conducted at four separate locations in a complete radius around
the site. If th~ odor is detennined to be generated offsite, staff will contact the
complainant notifying them of the ·source of the odors. If however, staff
determines that the odor is generated by the · facility, staff will immediately
identify the source of the odor and mitigate.
All odor complaints wilJ be entered in an Odor Complaint Log, and the LEA will
be notified within 24 hours. All complaints will be logged as to the time, date,
location. ambient air temperature, cloud cover, wind direction ,and speed, and
nature of complaint. An example of the Odor Complaint Log is provided below.
If the facility receives more than three different complaints within a one month
pei.iod or two complaints from the same individual within a ·one month period,
staff will meet with the complainant, if possible, · within a reasonable time to
discuss the source of the odor and discuss operational changes that would
miniJnize odors in the future. All meetings with the LEA/ complainants wiU be
recorded in the Odor Complaint Log. for future reference. The LEA will be
notified of the meeting and invited to attend.
The presence of odor is also monitored at the site boundary prior to commencing
and closing daily operations. Staff will detennine _whether the odor is emanating
from an on-site or off-site source. SCD has no authority over · off-site odor
sources. However, if the source is near by and identifiable, SCD will attempt to
ameliorate the situation so as not to get "blamed" for the odor. All presence of
odor will be recorded in the Odor Complaint Log.
The level of offensiveness from on-site odors at the property bow1dary is based on
a scale of I to 5 as follows:
1. No noticeable odor.
2. Slight odor
3. Moderate odor (noticeable)
4. Strong odor (objectionable)
5. Stench (noxious)

Should an odor problem occur at a level 3 or above, the following steps will be taken:
• Identify the source of the odor
• Dctennine possible causc(s) and select remedial action
0 These remedies include:
• Trucking of the o<liferous material to the landfill as soon as possible,
typically in the next transfer truck load hauled out.
• lnjccti(.m of odor destroying compounds into the misting system
• Absorption of any standing water
• Clean up of any food or other organic residues on the tippjng floor
• In the· event the odors cannot be controlled by any of the remedies, the
odorous material wm be trucked to the 1.andfill.
Should odors increase or a complaint be verified, the pJan will be re-evaluated and
more provisions will be considered to monitor or minimize odors.
d. Complaint Log
The facility keeps a written log of all complaints for no less than two years in an
Odor Complaint Log. The Jog is available for review at the site office located at
1827 2411: Street. Santa Monica, CA, 90404.
. e. Odor Survey Procedures
In order to assess potential odor impacts at the locations of possibl~ odor
receptors, a facility employee will drive past these locations at the beginning and
close of the working day. The )eve) of offensiveness will be measured and action
will be taken, if needed. as discussed above. The odor receptor locations will be
identified and recorded in the Odor Complaint Log. Possible odor receptors
include residents of the mobile home park, to the east of the transfer station.
CONTROL STRATEGIES
Odor Sources
There are two sources of odor at the SCD facility.
• Tipping Floor
• Transfer Tunnel
Tigpjng Floor
The tipping floor is lcicated in the transfer building,. which is a pennanent structure with a
roof and two walls. The walls act as a wind barrier, minimizing odor travel. To further
minimize dust and odor, an overhead spray misting system fuis been installed over the
tipping floor and transfer truck loading area. The tipping floor is cleaned daily by hand
with brooms. To mask odor SCD uses mixed fragrances and a new product called
Effective Microorganisms Activated EM-I. The fragrances and Effective
Microorganisms Activated EM-I are used in a misting sr-item in the transfer station.

The system consists of one high-pressure pump unit, double-filtered with one phosphate
and one five-micron cartridge, 1,000 psi operating pressure, 7.5 hp, 2:i0-volt thermally
protected motor rubber-mounted on an aluminum sub-frame, with fiberglass enclosu1;e,
auto drain valve, low water pressure safety switch. Attached in the appropriate areas
approximately 30 feet high is 350 feet of 3/8 stainless steel tubing which covers the
transfer station tipping floor with nozzles 24" on center. The system also includes one
Dosatron chemical injector to inject appropriate odor control chemicals, and a time clock
(timer) to run the system automatically with an over-ride switch to operate the system
manually, if necessary.
Transfer Tunnel ·
The transfer tunnel is incorporated into the tipping floor and utilizes the same odor control
strategies.
Green Material
In order to minimize odors from the green waste, material is stored in a separate pile
inside the transfer station building. Greenwaste is transferred within 48 hours of being
received, or more quickly if odor problems are detected. The misting s~tem can be
activated if odiferous greenwaste is received.
Recyclable Materials
The facility does nol include a material recovery facility and does not handle source-
separated recyclables.
Protocol for Handling Odiferous Loads
~o~ds are typically handled on a "first -in, first -out basis, but if odiferous loads are
received, they are transferred and shipped out as quickly as possible, typically in the next
transfer truck load out.
Covering Trucks and Trailers
All transfer traiJers ere tarped pnor to exiting the facility. Each trailer is fitted with a
specially fitted tarp hydraulically-actuated enclos\lre screen assembly that seals the trailer
from wind and precipitation. The assembly is kept closed on SCD transfer.trailers at all
times, except when loading. In addition, if they are loaded after the landfill closes, they
are covered and stored in the transfer station building overnight to minimize odor.
Supplementary Content Eiements
Buffer Zone
Within a 1,000-foot radius of the site the area north of the Santa Monica Freeway has
recently been re-zoned from Heavy Manufacturing (M-1) to various other zones. The
SCD facility and other areas have been re-zoned to Light Manufacturing and Studio
District (LMSD). The local park has been re-zoned to Designated Park (DP); and the
nearby mobile home park has been re-zoned to Residential Mobile Home Park (RMH).
The area south of the freeway remains zoned Low Density Multiple Residential (R2).

Self-Haul Facility
Operations Statement
SCD will operate the new Self-Haul Facility that will include the receipt, staging, and load out of
C&D debris, greenwaste, and mixed material from the public. This facility wi11 occupy City land
east of Frank Street and the existing SCD transfer station as shown on the Site Plan.
Weighing In
Self-haul vehicles will line up in the new queuing lane along the south right-of-way of Delaware
A venue adjacent to the expanded SCD transfer station. From there, they will weigh in on the
new inbound scale in what was formerly Frank Street. For repeat customers who have their tare
weights recorded in the scale computer, they will pay their fee upon weighing in. These vehicles
will not be required to weigh out. Others, for whom ~e weights are not recorded, will be
required to·weigh out after tipping.
Tipping
After weighing, self-haul vehicles will be directed by the scalehouse operator, signs, and traffic
controllers to the appropriate tipping area in the new Self-Haul Facility. Self haulers will then
unload and drive to the new outbound scale in Frank Street and either exit the facility directly
(for those whose tare weights are recorded and who paid on the way in) or weigh out and pay
their fee at the scalehouse .. It is anticipated that a vacuum tube system wiil be used so self-
haulers do not need to leave their vehicles to pay.
Processing
Initially, no processing of material is proposed in the Self-Haul _Facility. SCD will simply
maintain separate areas for the material and transfer it to processing facilities in the area.
In the future,·and with the agreement of the City, processing of both the greenwaste and mixed
C&D material could be conducted by SCD in the Self-Hau1 Facility. This could inc1ude:
• Sorting of greenwaste (to remove contamination) followed by chipping & grinding
and screening. The heavier wood chips could then be.hauled directly to biomass
power plants or used by the City as ground cover. The finer material could be
delivered to composting operations.
• Sorting of mixed C&D debris by hand and with an excavator into commodities such
as wood, inerts (concrete, asphalt), dirt, rock, dryw~l, bulk metal, and others. The
wood could be ground on site and the rest of this material shipped to recycling
markets.
Transfer
-14 -
3.A.f
Packet Pg. 562 Attachment: SCD Contract and Modifications for Solid Waste Transfer Services (4935 : City Yards EIR Addendum, Hathaway Dinwiddie Change
SCD will maintain flexibility in transfer operations with the ability to top-load transfer trucks
directly in the Self-Haul Facility, or to load roll-offs or bins at the Self-Haul Facility, shuttle
them to the SCD transfer station, and reload the material into transfer trucks there.
Loa.ding at the Self-Haul Facility will be accomplished by a front end loader with extended forks
by simply loading over the side of the transfer trailer. Loading may be facilitated by
constructing a drive down ramp to lower the transfer trucks for loading, and by construction of a
push wall for the loaders.
Transfer operations may be modified pending completion of the °fmal design of the facility by the
City and its consultant with input from SCD.
Once transferred, the C&D debris will be hauled to Downtown Diversion or another City-
designated C&D facility for processing and recycling. Likewise, the greenwaste will be
delivered to Community Recycling or another City-designated facility for chipping & grinding
and marketing as mulch, boiler fuel, or compost feedstock.
Environmental Controls
Greenwaste will be transferred on a first-in first-out basis and always within 48 hours per State
law. In fact, this material will be transferred out daily in nearly all circumstances as is currently
done at the SCD transfer station. Any odiferous loads will be transferred as soon as possible, if
not immediately.
Dust will be suppressed by the use of an overhead misting system hung from the rafters. In .
addition, water sprays from hoses could be used to moisten particularly dusty loads. Water will
be used to wet the loads a.s" they are being dumped and also as the material is being loaded into
the transfer trucks. This water will simply be absorbed into the material and will not result in
free-standing water that could become a nuisance.
Toe· entire site will be paved, and cleaned as needed by a mechanical street sweeper to remove
any remaining debris. This too will reduce the potential for odor and dust.
Employees
The following employees will man the Self-Haul Facility:
• Traffic Controller: 2-3
• Loader opera,tor: 1
• Transfer truck drivers: 1-2
Transfer truck drivers will be a combination of SCD employees and ind~pendent contractors.
Equipment
The following equipment will be used at the Self-Haul Facility:
• Wheeled Loader: 1
• Transfer Trailers: 1-2

Dear City Council and City Staff.
Agenda item 3A: Please say no to staff's recommendation to the relocation of the City’s open air
recyclable materials tip/dump and transfer facility hard up against the residential mhp.
Don’t pass the EIR addendum, at 20 feet the sound percussion knocks crockery off of kitchen tables and
interferes with people's mental health when the City recycle trucks dump their loads and the compacting
machines cram the recycling into large diesel powered hauling trucks,SCD and City Hall will pollute the
residents that live 20 feet from their operations, how can any environmental analysis have been done if
you are poisoning Low income Hispanic residents with 2.5 PM and 10 PM particulate matter particle
pollution? What outreach has been done to the 20 plus families that live directly under your cloud of
pollution?
In June 2019 the City of Santa Monica closed down “The Santa Monica Community Recycling Center”
also known as the Buyback Center run by the Allan Company the City wanted the land Allen Company
used in the City yards for themselves to build a vanity project costing upto $300.0000,000. dollars (please
see Exhibit 1 new Building).
Allan Company provided a service to Santa Monica residents that paid the redemption value on recycling
to residents when they collected them and brought them in. that amount of Cash was approximately $7-13
Million Dollars per year to the Residents and community of Santa Monica from an overall income of $14-
$30 Million (the difference in amounts is a bumper year versus an average year) the closing down also
lost local employment in Santa Monica (please see Exhibit A) Closing down the Santa Monica Community
Recycling Center was a huge cash gift by City Hall to Southern California Disposal & Recycling Transfer
Station “SCD” on an annual basis/Plus the land swop for City owned land the Hanson Lot, combined and
should be investigated by an outside agency such as Los Angeles District Attorney's office or the FBI or
both for embezzlement of public funds also SCD gives nothing back to the community, they only take from
the community, all trash services are paid for by the residents of Santa Monica they are not free.
City Staff state very clearly in their EIR for the addendum to City Yards Project, staff are solely
responsible for the relocation/location of City’s recyclable materials tip/dump and transfer facility, SCD is

not involved in the relocation or decision making, If this is a straightforward business deal why is City Hall
hiding/shielding this deal with the City Attorney's office and $24 million dollar City Attorneys budget?( that
is what that statement is saying) to shield SCD from Lawsuits that may come from the poisonous pollution
in particulates dumped over the cement block walls into the Residential MHP and the unexplained deaths
of residents in this part of the mhp. Please see Exhibits B & C.)
So Why is this happening (please see Exhibit D AB1550 Disadvantaged community/Low-income
community) Pico Neighborhood is a Disadvantaged community, this is a loss of equity and entrenched
racism by City Hall seen today in the 21st Century for all to see, the reason you are doing this, a bunch of
low income Hispanics forced/tricked into moving onto the Landfill by another City Department, that they
never lived on before and no one will care, it is not right for City hall to poison low income Santa Monica
residents simply because you can and they are not capable of fighting you plus its probably not lawful.
So what is it City Hall is doing to this poverty stricken community (please see Exhibits E,F) please take
notice of the stained wall 20 feet from residential homes in exhibit E This wall is not a sound wall it's just a
block wall and provides no protection from the trash stench and odors and particulate pollution and
sound/noise created by City owned trucks and SCD, please also take notice of the stained wall inside
SCD transfer station(Exhibit G)-it is 4 inches thick mostly mold that SCD refuses to remedy and is just one
of the public health violations SCD and the City is responsible for.
Please return the Zoning back to residential and stop Joining lots together for City Business Partners
(please see Exhibits H,J,K)
Thanking you in Advance: Cris McLeod Pico NeighborHood Association Chair and
Santa Monica Resident.
