document was prepared in compliance with the requirements of CEQA and local
guidelines, with respect thereto; and,
WHEREAS, after issuing notice pursuant to the requirements of the City's
Development Code and the State CEQA Guidelines, the City Council of the City of Rancho
Palos Verdes held a public hearing on December 20, 2011, at which time all interested
parties were given an opportunity to be heard and present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES
DOES HEREBY FIND, DETERMINE, AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Resolution No. 2011-96
Page 2 of 6
Section 1: The proposed project consists of constructing a large diameter (54
inch) steel storm drain system to convey storm water from San Ramon Canyon to the
beach, and will be designed to handle existing upstream flows for a 100-year storm event.
The project undertaking includes a new mid-canyon storm drain inlet structure and tunnel
alignment north of PVDS/25th Street that will gravity flow through the tunnel to a cut and
covered section of buried pipe located within a one hundred foot wide easement along the
eastern property boundary at Shoreline Park south of PVDS/25th Street, and transition into
a second tunnel to a new outlet structure at the base of the bluff.
Section 2: The City Council has independently reviewed and considered the
proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration/Finding of No Significant Impact, the public
comments upon it, and other evidence before the Council prior to taking action on the
proposed project and finds that the Mitigated Negative Declaration/Finding of No
Significant Impact was prepared in the manner required by law and that there is no
substantial evidence that, with appropriate mitigation measures, the approval of Case No.
ZON2011-00326 would result in a significant adverse effect upon the environment.
Section 3: The Initial Study identified the following issue areas that may result in
a potentially significant environmental impact(s) as a result of the proposed project:
Aesthetics, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Hydrology and Water Quality, and
Transportation and Circulation. However, with the appropriate mitigation measures in the
attached Mitigation Monitoring Program (Exhibit "A"), which address impacts upon the
aforementioned issue areas, the project will not have a significant adverse environmental
impact.
Section 4: The City Council finds that the project would not result in significant
adverse environmental impacts. In making this finding, the City Council considered the
project's mitigation measures that address the following issues:
a) Aesthetics: It was identified that the project may result in an aesthetic impact
with regards to the visibility of the outlet structure at the beach, and the
resulting aesthetics of the areas in San Ramon Canyon that will be trenched
to lay the drain pipe and the buttressed fill. The potential aesthetic impacts
have led to the incorporation of mitigation measures that require revegetation
of the impacted areas near the inlet, and stealthing the outlet structure with
natural earth-tone color. Prior to revegetating these areas, the City will
ensure the use of a local native plant seed mix that will be coordinated with
the Palos Verdes Land Conservancy. Incorporation of these mitigation
measures will result in a less than significant impact upon aesthetics.
b) Air Quality: It was identified that the project may result in an air quality
impact with regards to exposing sensitive receptors to short-term,
construction related pollutants, odors and dust. Residences are identified as
a sensitive receptor, and exposure to dust and exhaust emissions from
construction activities was identified as a potential impact. However, this
potential impact has led to the incorporation of mitigation measures that
Resolution No. 2011-96
Page 3 of 6
require the use of Best Management Practices (BMPs), such as watering of
graded areas to minimize dust, for avoiding short-term related air quality
impacts. As such, by incorporating these mitigation measures, there will be
no significant adverse impacts upon air quality.
c) Biological Resources: It was identified that the project may result in a
biological resources impact due to habitat loss of coastal sage scrub and
jurisdictional drainage. Specifically, the project will impact 0.34-acre of
coastal sage scrub, 0.02-acre of coastal bluff scrub, and 1.36-acres of
grassland habitat. These habitat losses do not exceed the maximum
accounted by the City's NCCP.
The City's NCCP, which was approved in 2004 by the City Council, creates a
habitat preserved in exchange for allowing a certain amount of habitat loss
resulting from public and private projects over a span of 50 years. One of
the covered projects identified in the City's NCCP is the Lower San Ramon
Canyon Project, which anticipated 2-acres of coastal sage scrub loss and 6-
acres of non-native grassland loss. These anticipated impacts are mitigated
through the dedication of City-owned land into the Preserve and habitat
restoration in the Preserve performed by the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land
Conservancy (PVPLC) for the City. Since the quantity of habitat loss
resulting from the proposed project is within the quantity of loss estimated in
the NCCP, the loss is mitigated pursuant to the City's NCCP.
With regards to the jurisdictional drainage impacts, the storm drain project
will impact 0.07-acre of jurisdictional drainage. The impacts from the canyon
and jurisdictional fill will be mitigated by post-construction re-vegetation of the
new streambed at a ratio of 3:1, per the requirements of the Army Corps of
Engineers (ACOE). Thus, 0.21-acres will be restored through the ACOE's
404 permit process. The City will ensure the use of a local native plant seed
mix that will be coordinated with the applicable agencies prior to re-
vegetating the area. It is important to note that City Staff has been working
with the Army Corps for several months, and the application was submitted
on December 9, 2011 to start their approval process. As such, by
incorporating such mitigation measures, there will be no significant adverse
impacts upon biological resources.
d) Hydrology and Water Quality: It was identified that the project may result in
an impact with regards to wastewater discharge and storm water runoff. The
potential impact has led to incorporation of a mitigation measure that
requires preparation and approval of a Standard Urban Storm Water
Mitigation Plan (SUSMP) prior to commencing work on the project. Further,
a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) will be prepared to
address construction storm water runoff, and incorporated into the City's
Water Quality Management Plan as outlined by the Los Angeles Regional
Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB). It is important to note that City
Staff has also been working with the LARWQCB Staff for several months to
ensure that the necessary information is submitted with the application. As
Resolution No. 2011-96
Page 4 of 6
such, the application was submitted on December 9, 2011 to commence
their approval process. Thus, incorporation of a mitigation measure will
result in a less than significant impact upon hydrology and water quality.
e) Noise: It was identified that the project may result in impacts with increased
noise levels as a result of the construction activity. Although the noise
impact will be short-term and related to construction, it has led to
incorporation of mitigation measures that limit hours of construction and the
queuing of construction vehicles. Incorporation of mitigation measures will
result in a less than significant impact upon noise.
Transportation and Circulation: It was identified that the project may result in
transportation and traffic impacts with regards to construction activity. As a
result, mitigation measures have been incorporated in the form of traffic
control measures, construction timing and phasing, and queuing of
construction vehicles. As such, by incorporating these mitigation measures,
there will be no significant adverse impacts upon transportation and traffic.
Section 5: In accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental
Policy Act(NEPA), alternatives to the proposed design were considered. Seven alternative
designs were considered, including designs that rely on connecting to the existing storm
drain system in the City of Los Angeles. However, the condition of the existing storm drain
system in the City of Los Angeles is unknown, as no technical information has been
submitted to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes regarding the condition and capacity of the
system. Further, the alternatives have not been well received by the City of Los Angeles,
as the City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works Staff has indicated that such
alternatives which include construction at the mouth of San Ramon Canyon (adjacent to
25th Street) and traversing the privately owned parcel immediately to the north of 25th
Street is not likely due to environmental and jurisdictional constraints at the mouth of San
Ramon Canyon, and due to the impacts to the downstream residents in the mobile home
park during construction.
Based on all alternatives considered, the proposed design has been identified as
presenting the least amount of jurisdictional and native habitat impacts, and eliminates
reliance on other jurisdictions and their processes since the project would be wholly
confined to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes. Further, since the project will be wholly
within the City of Rancho Palos Verdes and on vacant parcels, this design minimizes
impacts to existing residents and to the adjacent mobile home park in the City of Los
Angeles. Furthermore, construction of the proposed project will not necessitate impacting
the existing residential developments in the area.
Section 6: For reasons discussed in the Initial Study,which is incorporated herein
by reference, the proposed project will not have any potential to achieve short-term, to the
disadvantage of long-term, environmental goals, nor would the project have impacts which
are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable.
Section 7: The Lead Agency has consulted the lists compiled pursuant to Section
Resolution No. 2011-96
Page 5 of 6
65962.5 of the Government Code, and has certified that the development project and any
alternatives proposed in this application are not included in these lists of known Hazardous
Waste and Substances Sites as compiled by the California Environmental Protection
Agency.
Section 8: Based upon the foregoing findings, the adoption of the proposed
Mitigated Negative Declaration/Finding of No Significant Impact is in the public interest.
Section 9: The mitigation measures set forth in the Mitigation Monitoring
Program, Exhibit "A", attached hereto, are incorporated into the scope of the proposed
project. These measures will reduce potential significant impacts identified in the Initial
Study to a less than significant level.
Section 10: The time within which the judicial review of the decision reflected in
this Resolution, if available, must be sought is governed by Section 1094.6 of the California
Code of Civil Procedure or other applicable shortened periods of limitation.
Section 11: For the foregoing reasons and based on the information and findings
included in the Staff Report, Environmental Assessment and other components of the
legislative record, in the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration/Finding of No Significant
Impact, and in the public comments received by the Council, the City Council of the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes hereby certifies that the Mitigated Negative Declaration/Finding of
No Significant Impact has been prepared in compliance with CEQA/NEPA, and therefore
adopts the attached Mitigation Monitoring Program (Exhibit"A") associated with Case No.

I. INTRODUCTION
PURPOSE
This Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) is to allow the construction of the San Ramon Canyon
Storm Drain Improvement and Emergency Slope Stabilization Project on two City-owned parcels,the
City's Right-of-way, and an outlet at the beach (APN7564-01 9-900 & 7564-024-901), in the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes. The project includes the following:
The installation of a new mid-canyon storm drain inlet near the upper switchback of Palos
Verdes Drive East;tunnel alignment from the mid-canyon inlet north of 25th Street that would
gravity flow through the tunnel to a cut and covered section of buried pipe located south of
Palos Verdes Drive South; and transition into a second tunnel to a new outlet structure at the
base of the bluff at the beach. The total storm drain alignment will measure approximately
4,200 lineal feet. The existing storm drain below 25th Street in the City of Los Angeles would
remain in place and no improvements are proposed to this segment, but will be utilized and
serve as a backup system.
In addition to construction of the inlet structure in the canyon and tunnel, a dirt filled gravity-
type buttress and associated terrace drains would be constructed within the canyon in order to
reduce the potential for future deep-seated movement within the actively failing portion of the
canyon that is caused by the active Tarapaca landslide. The buttress will be established at an
elevation which is similar to the pre-erosion elevation within the canyon.
After construction, the area along Shoreline Park will be restored to enhance the open space
and recreation uses in this area by providing a maintenance access path so that routine
maintenance can be performed by workers as needed. The maintenance access path will
also serve as a connection for pedestrians seeking access to Shoreline Park. The
maintenance access path will connect to the existing trail on Shoreline Park.
The MMP responds to Section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code, which requires a lead or
responsible agency that approves or carries out a project where a Mitigated Negative Declaration has
identified significant environmental effects,to adopt a"reporting or monitoring program for adopted or
required changes to mitigate or avoid significant environmental effects." The City of Rancho Palos
Verdes is acting as lead agency for the project.
An Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared to address the potential environmental
impacts of the project. Where appropriate, this environmental document recommended mitigation
measures to mitigate or avoid impacts identified. Consistent with Section 21080 (2)(c) of the Public
Resources Code, a mitigation reporting or monitoring program is required to ensure that the adopted
mitigation measures under the jurisdiction of the City are implemented. The City will adopt this MMP
when adopting the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROCEDURES
This MMP has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970
(CEQA), as amended (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) and the State Guidelines for
Implementation of CEQA (CEQA Guidelines), as amended (California Administrative Code Section
15000 et seq.). This MMP complies with the rules, regulations,and procedures adopted by the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes for implementation of CEQA.
