III. OVERVIEW OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING

Transcription

1 III. OVERVIEW OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING A. INTRODUCTION Section 15125, subdivision (a) of the CEQA Guidelines provides: An EIR must include a description of the physical environmental conditions in the vicinity of the project, as they exist at the time the notice of preparation is published, or if no notice of preparation is published, at the time environmental analysis is commenced, from both a local and regional perspective. This environmental setting will normally constitute the baseline physical conditions by which a lead agency determines whether an impact is significant. The descripting of the environmental setting shall be no longer than is necessary to an understanding of the significant effects of the proposed project and its alternatives. The following Section provides a generalized overview of the environmental conditions that exist at the Site and the surrounding area at the time the Notice of Preparation (NOP) was published. The NOP for the City Market Los Angeles was published on February 20, A detailed and more focused description of the environmental and regulatory setting as it pertains to each of the environmental issue areas addressed within the scope of this Draft EIR is provided in each respective chapter within Section IV, Environmental Impact Analysis. B. PROJECT SITE 1. Location The Site encompasses several lots covering approximately 10 acres of land within the Central City Community Planning Area of the City of Los Angeles. The Site is generally bounded by 9 th to the north, San Pedro to the east, 12 th to the south and San Julian to the west with two outlying parcels situated on the west side of San Julian between 11 th and 9 th. A list of the property addresses and assessor parcel numbers associated with the Site are identified in Table II-1, Site Addresses and Assessor Parcel Numbers. As shown in Figure II-2, Context Map, the Site is located within a heavily developed area of downtown the Los Angeles. The Site is situated in the southeastern area of the downtown core, and centrally located within the Fashion District. The Site is within a 1-mile radius (e.g., 20- minute walk) of several important cultural and civic destinations, including the Convention Center, Staples Center and L.A. Live, South Park, the Broadway Theater District, City Hall and the L.A. Civic Center, the Financial District, the Jewelry District, and Bunker Hill. The Site is regionally accessible via I-10 (the Santa Monica Freeway), located approximately 0.33 mile to the south of the Site, and I/SR-110 (the Harbor Freeway), located approximately 1.2 miles to the west. Downtown Union Station is located approximately 1.5 miles to the north of the Site. Page III-1

2 2. Existing Land Uses The Site is currently developed with a number of existing commercial land uses and activities, including wholesale/storage uses, retail/cafe uses, and commercial offices. As summarized in Table III-1, Existing Land Uses on the Site, below, there are 18 buildings/structures located within the Site. The location of each building/structure is identified in Figure II-3, Existing Conditions Plot Plan. As shown in Figure II-3, there are seven remaining structures on Block 1; eleven buildings/structures on Block 2, and surface parking lots on Blocks 3 and 4. In total, there is approximately 115,249 square feet of improved structural floor area within the Site, of which only 59,000 square feet is currently occupied and operational. The occupied floor area represents the active uses that were occupied/operational at the time the NOP was prepared.

3 C. SURROUNDING LAND USES The Site is situated within the Fashion District area of downtown Los Angeles. The Fashion District sub-area, which occupies approximately 20 percent of the land area in the City s downtown, is the historic hub of the fashion industry in Los Angeles. A majority of the buildings in the Fashion District are multi-story buildings from two to 14 stories. 38 of the approximately 60 buildings in the Fashion District are 4 or more stories. The properties surrounding the Site to the north, east, west and south are zoned for Light Manufacturing land uses but are predominately operating with commercial retail and wholesale land uses. The properties to the immediate west of the Site on San Julian are comprised of low-rise, one-story retail and wholesale land uses. To the north across 9 th, are one, two, and three-story commercial retail/textile-related land uses. Immediately to the east, across San Pedro are low to mid-rise (one to three-story) structures that support retail and wholesale land uses. The San Pedro Market is prominently situated along the east side of San Pedro to the north and south of 11 h. Land uses to the south include one and two-story commercial retail/whole sale land uses. Los Angeles fresh flower industry is also concentrated in the Fashion District and is generally located to the north of 9 th. The three major land use activities within the Fashion District are wholesale, manufacturing, and retail. Views within the project area are generally constrained to focal viewsheds at the pedestrian level as a result of the relatively level topography coupled with the arrangement of existing buildings, which tend to block distant or panoramic views. Aside from intermittent views of the downtown skyline in between buildings, there are no prominent scenic viewsheds within the project study area. D. GEOLOGY AND TOPOGRAPHY 1. Regional Geology The Site is located in the Central Block of the Los Angeles Basin, which is a sedimentary filled basin in the Peninsular Range geomorphic province. The Central block is bordered by the Santa Monica Mountains to the north, the Elysian Hills to the east, Baldwin Hills and the Central Plain to the south, and the City of Beverly Hills to the west. Based on the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Map of the Los Angeles Quadrangle (2005) and the Dibblee Foundation Map of the Hollywood Quadrangle (1991), the Site is underlain by alluvial fan deposits, which consist of Holocene and late Pleistocene age gravel, sand and silt deposited mainly from flooding streams and debris flows. These alluvial fan deposits are underlain by older late to middle Pleistocene age alluvial fan deposits, which generally consist of silt, sand, and gravel deposits. Miocene age Monterey Formation sandstone and shale underlie the late Pleistocene age deposits at an unknown depth. Page III-3

4 2. Subsurface Geology at the Site Based on site-specific subsurface exploration surveys involving over 9 boreholes throughout the Site, earth materials encountered on-site were classified in accordance with the visual-manual procedures of the Unified Soil Classification System. The earth materials encountered in the boreholes consist of up to approximately five (5) feet of fill underlain by alluvium, which extends to the depths explored Groundwater Seismic Hazard Evaluation for the Hollywood Quadrangle by the State of California indicates that the highest historic water level in the area was recorded at approximately one hundred (100) feet below ground surface. Groundwater seepage was not encountered in the boreholes to the depths explored (boreholes range in depths from 25 feet to 70 feet) Seismicity and Seismic Hazards In general, seismic hazards include ground surface fault rupture, ground motion, liquefaction, settlement, lateral spreading, and seismically-induced slope instabilities. The Site is located within a seismically active region of California, within the zone of influence of several active and potentially active fault systems. The Puente Hills Blind Thrust Fault is the nearest known active fault mapped in proximity to the Site and is located approximately 0.19 miles to the north. Accordingly, the site is subject to moderate to intense earthquake-induced ground shaking as a result of periodic movement along nearby faults. E. REGIONAL ACCESS AND MOBILITY 1. Regional Access Regional access to the Site is provided by I-10 (the Santa Monica Freeway), located approximately ½ mile south of the Site, and I-110/SR-110 (the Harbor Freeway), located approximately 1 mile west of the Site. I-10 runs in an east-west direction while I-110/SR-110 runs north-south. These two facilities also provide access to the US-101 and I-5 freeways to the north, to the I-10 and SR-60 freeways to the east, and to the I-5 freeway to the south. 2. Public Transit The Site is located in proximity to significant levels of transit service that serves downtown Los Angeles. The is approximately one-half mile from the San Pedro Blue Line Station. This station serves the Metro Blue Line, which runs from Downtown Los Angeles to Long Beach, and connects to the Expo, Red, and Purple Lines in Downtown LA, and to the Green Line in Willowbrook. The Blue Line operates approximately between 4:00 A.M. and 12:00 A.M. on weekdays and until 3:00 A.M. on 1 2 Detailed logs of the boreholes are presented in Appendix F to this Draft EIR.

PUBLIC UTILITIES 1. Water Water is currently supplied to the Site and surrounding area by the City of Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP). The LADWP is responsible for ensuring that water demands within the City are met and that State and Federal water quality standards are achieved. In addition to supplying water for domestic uses, the LADWP also supplies water for fire protection services and recycled water for irrigation and industrial uses in conjunction with the Department of Public Works. As discussed in greater detail in Section IV.L, Public Utilities, the the estimated water demand for the existing uses on the project Site is 7,023 gallons per day (gpd) or approximately 8 acre-feet per year (af/yr). The existing water use was provided by the LADWP s WSA and was determined by actual billing history for the Site. 2. Wastewater The City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works, Bureau of Sanitation provides sewer conveyance infrastructure and wastewater treatment services for the Site. Specifically, the Bureau of Sanitation provides advance planning and financial management, and maintains and operates the sewage collection and treatment system. The Hyperion Treatment Plant (HTP), located southwest of the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), provides treatment capacity for all wastewater flows generated within the Area. The HTP currently has the capacity to treat approximately 450 million gallons per day (gpd) of wastewater and currently processes average wastewater flows of approximately 375 mgd. 3 The Area is presently served by a network of sewer lines that are located beneath most of the major streets that convey sewage flows from the Area to the HTP. The sewer infrastructure in the vicinity of the includes an existing 8-inch line on 9 th and an existing 8-inch line on San Pedro. Sewage from the 8-inch line on 9 th splits into a 15-inch line on Olympic and 10-inch line on San Julian before rejoining into a 24-inch line on Maple. The flows then split again and discharge into a 50-inch line on Grand and 57- inch line on 23 rd. Sewage from the 8-inch line on San Pedro splits into a 15-inch line on 14 th and 10-inch line on San Pedro before discharging into a 40-inch line on Griffith and 40-inch line on Washington, respectively. Based on current gauging data, the City s Bureau of Sanitation has confirmed the sewer lines serving the project area are operating between 16 and 30 percent design capacity (d/d). 3 City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works, Bureau of Sanitation, Hyperion Sewage Treatment Plant, website: accessed March Page III-8

9 As discussed in greater detail in Section IV.L, Public Utilities, the estimated sewer flow generated by the existing retail, wholesale, and office land uses that are currently in operation on the Site is estimated to be approximately 2,210 gpd, or approximately 806,650 gallons per year. 3. Energy Conservation (a) Electricity Electricity service within the City of Los Angeles is provided by the City of Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP). The LADWP obtains electricity from a variety of sources that utilize coal, natural gas, nuclear, hydroelectric power, and renewable resources (including solar and wind) to generate power. Los Angeles customers purchased about 25.2 million megawatt-hours during FY The LADWP currently provides electricity to the Area with all required infrastructure present. As discussed in greater detail in Section IV.L.3, Energy Conservation, based on the existing land uses presently being occupied on the Site, the existing electricity demand is estimated to be 754,650 kwh/year. (b) Natural Gas Southern California Gas Company (SCG), a subsidiary of Sempra Energy and the nation s largest natural gas supplier, distributes natural gas to 19.5 million residential, commercial, and industrial customers throughout the southern half of California. SCG owns and operates 95,000 miles of gas distribution mains and service lines, as well as nearly 3,000 miles of transmission and storage pipeline. The utility also owns gas transmission compressor stations and underground storage facilities. The Site is currently developed with a surface parking and commercial retail, wholesale and office land uses and has access to existing gas mains connecting the property to a natural gas supply. As discussed in greater detail in Section IV.L-1, Energy Conservation, based on the existing land uses presently being occupied on the Site, the existing natural gas demand is estimated to be 163,900 cubic feet (cf)/month, or 1,966,800 cf/year. 4. Solid Waste Solid waste management, including collection and disposal services and landfill operation, is administered by various public agencies and private companies. Single-family and limited multiplefamily residential refuse is collected by the City of Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation, whereas waste generated by most multiple-family residential sources and all commercial/industrial sources is collected by private contractors. Waste disposal sites are operated by both the City and County of Los Angeles, as well as by private companies. The Site is currently developed with a surface parking and commercial retail, wholesale and office land uses and has access to existing gas mains connecting the property to a natural gas supply. As discussed in greater detail in Section IV.L-4, based on the existing land uses presently being occupied on the Site, the existing solid waste generation is estimated to be 311 lbs/day, or approximately 56 tons per year.

10 H. HAZARDS / RISK OF UPSET Based on a Phase I Environmental Assessment performed by SASSAN Geosciences, Inc. (SAS), in February 11, 2011, the Site does not appear to be a source of environmental contamination. Similarly, none of the adjacent properties or nearby, identified hazardous sites appear to negatively impact the Site. SAS concludes that the property is free of environmental contamination and their report finds no basis to conclude that identified hazardous sites within 2,000 feet have negatively impacted the Site. The Site is believed to be about 246 feet above ground water on soils that are characterized as generally permeable. When inspected, the Site was observed to be in transition from use as a wholesale produce market to a contemporary, multi-use real estate development. The parcels on the west side of San Julian have been and continue to be used for passenger vehicle parking. No distressed vegetation attributable to toxic substances was observed on the Site or its neighbors. No groundwater monitoring wells, unusual odors or evidence of prior subsurface investigation was identified on-site. 4 I. RELATED PROJECTS Sections and of the State CEQA Guidelines require EIRs to consider the significant cumulative environmental effects of a project. Cumulative impacts refer to two or more individual effects which, when considered together, are considerable or which compound or increase other environmental impacts (CEQA Guidelines Section 15355). Cumulative impacts may be analyzed by considering a list of past, present, and probable future projects producing related or cumulative impacts [CEQA Guidelines Section (b)(1)(a)]. Based on a review of all proposed, recently approved, under construction, or reasonably foreseeable projects that have been identified within proximity to the project, a total of 139 related projects were identified that have the potential to produce a cumulative impact on the local environment, when considered in conjunction with the Proposed. These related projects are identified in Table III-2, Related s, below. The project location for each related project is identified in Figure III-1, Related s Location Map. In instances when the list-based analytical approach is appropriate for determining cumulative impacts, the potential cumulative impacts associated with these related projects and the Proposed were considered as discussed under a Cumulative Impact subheading in each respective environmental impact category in Section IV, Environmental Impact Analysis, of this EIR. 4 SASSAN Geosciences Inc., 2013 (see Appendix G to this Draft EIR).
