THIS AGREEMENT, entered into this '" Gay of TT.Q/_�, 1983,
by and between THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, a Municipal Corporation
and Charter City, hereinafter referred to as "City", THE COUNTY
OF ORANGE, a political subdivision of the State of California,
hereinafter "County", and NEWPORT DUNES, INC., a California
Corporation, hereinafter "Corporation", and the ORANGE COUNTY
HARBOR, BEACHES AND PARRS DISTRICT, organized pursuant to
Division 8, Part II of the H & N Code, hereinafter "District", is -
made with reference to the following facts, the materiality and
existence of which is stipulated by and between the parties
hereto:
A. Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 526 of the
California State Statutes of 1919, the State of California grant-
ed certain tidelands to County, which grant was subject to cer-
tain conditions and restraints on the use of the property. These
tidelands were regranted by the State to the County, pursuant to
the provisions of Chapter 415 of the Statutes of 1975, this grant
1�
1
•
1
1
again subject to certain conditions and restraints on the use of
1
the property. The tidelands referred to in these two grants,
together with a small parcel. of uplands, are described as set
1
forth in Exhibit "A" to this Agreement, and are hereinafter
"the
1
referred to as property";
S. County has improved the property with certain pub-
1
lic recreational facilities, including a lifeguard headquarters
building and public restroom;
1
C. County has leased the property to Corporation pur-
suant to two 50-year leases which run to May 30, 2008 and
February 28, 2015, respectively;
1
D. Pursuant to these leases, Corporation has improved
the property such that certain recreational and visitor -serving
1
facilities are now located on the property. These facilities
1
include the following:
i) A beach, consisting of approximately eleven
1
acres, together with concessions to serve beachgoers, such as,
fast food stands and businesses which rent beach equipment;
1
ii) A recreational' vehicle and travel trailer
1
camping area, with 64 spaces fully serviced by sewer, water and
2
electricity and 80 spaces which are partially served by such
utilities;
iii) A restaurant known as Anthony's Pier II locat-
ed on the northwesterly edge of the swimming lagoon and consist-
ing of approximately 71500 sq. ft. of public area, and a coffee
shop, consisting of approximately 21000 sq. ft. of public area
and located on the easterly side of the lagoon in the area of the
current boat -launching facilities;
iv) Boat and marina -related facilities consisting
of approximately 230 slips, a boat repair business, a canvas
shop, maintenance storage and a dry boat storage area with room
for approximately 350 boats and a six -lane boat launching ramp;
v) A structure; located near Anthony's Pier •II,
consisting of approximately 1,500 sq. ft. which presently serves
as the headquarters and equipment yard for Corporation..
E. Commencing in 1976, County and Corporation embarked
on a process designed to redevelop the property by enlarging or
improving existing facilities and constructing new facilities.'
This process culminated, in 1980, with the approval, in concept,
of a redevelopment plan for the property which called for the
3
construction of a motel or family inn with 350 rooms, construc"
,
tion of "meeting rooms" with a seating capacity of 400 persons,
the construction of four additional coffee shops and snack bars,
'
at least one of which would seat 150 persons, construction of 263
`
additional boat slips, the construction of a "marina village"
'
consisting of approximately 50,000 sq. ft. of commercial and
lretail
development, the construction of approximately 20,000 sq.
'
ft. of facilities described as "marina amenities", the construc-
tion of approximately 12,000 sq. ft. of unspecified, commercial
�.
development, the upgrading and enlarging of the recreational
,
vehicle area, and the construction of other development to sup-
'
port the primary uses;
F. . In February, 1981, the City instituted litigation
t
in response to the approval of County of the redevelopment plan
L
for the property. This lawsuit is presently pending in Orange
County Superior Court (Case No. 35-01-35) and seeks a declaration
,
of that Court that the approval of the redevelopment plan by
County was in violation of provisions of the California Environ-'
'
mental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State EIR Guidelines
(Guidelines) promulgated pursuant to that legislation. City, in
,
4
1
,
its complaint, also seeks a declaration of that Court that the
property, and the proposed construction of recreational
facilities, is subject to the ordinances of the City and that any
construction on the property must be approved by the City;
G. Subsequent to the filing of the lawsuit,'all of the
interested parties have engaged in a collective discussion with
the intention of resolving all of the issues and concerns raised
by the redevelopment plan and the litigation instituted by
City. The development authorized by this agreement, and as
conditioned by this Agreement, resolves these issues and concerns
in that:
(i) The changes in the project, the requirement of
City concurrence in any additional development, and the binding
nature of this Agreement, mitigate, to an acceptable level, any
adverse environmental impacts that may result from the
construction of the improvements contemplated by this Agreement.
(ii) The development•contemplated by this Agreement
is in the nature of proprietary activity and the binding commit-
ments to obtain City concurrence for additional development, are
adequate to fully protect the health, welfare and safety of the
citizens of Newport Beach;
5
G
r
(iii) The commitments contained in this Agreement
will resolve, the issues relative to land use control of the
property without the undue expenditure of taxpayers' funds and
the uncertainty that would result from continued litigation of
those issues.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
I. City, in consideration of the covenants and pro-

both City and County sufficient to bind future boards and
councils, notwithstanding any change in the composition
thereof. City and County hereby expressly waive and give up any
right to challenge the validity of this Agreement, or any speci-
fic term or condition hereof, based upon the contention that the
legislative bodies of cities or counties are not empowered to
bind future boards or councils, and each of the parties hereto
stipulates that the consideration set forth in this Agreement is
adequate to support this waiver.
24
i
VI. County shall not allow, and Corporation shall not
construct, any development on the property exceeding that contem-
plated by this Agreement, without the concurrence of the City
Council of the City of Newport Beach. Any plan for future
development, not contemplated by this Agreement, must be accom-
panied by adequate environmental documentation as required by
law, and will be processed through the Planning Commission, and
City Council of the City of Newport Beach in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter 20.80 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.
VII. The parties hereto recognize that the approval of
the California Coastal Commission and the State Lands Commission,
will be required for development of the property, and County and
Corporation covenant that, in requesting such approval, -they will
a
seek no development in excess of that contemplated herein. City
agrees to notify; in writing, all agencies which are required to
approve the development contemplated in this Agreement of its
support and City will endeavor tc appear at public hearings be-
fore any Board or Commission reviewing a proposal for such
development 'or any portion thereof, to express its support. To
the extent that the California Coastal Commission and/or State
25
1�
Lands Commission County Corporation
1
make requirements upon and
-
not set forth in, or at variance with, the provisions of this
T'
Agreement, County and City agree to accept and incorporate as
amendments to this Agreement all said changes and/or variances,
so long as said changes and/or variances do not expand *or
increase the intensity or density
e
concentration, of the
development of the project as contemplated by this Agreement or
L
change the nature of the land uses described herein. All parties
S
-understand that this Agreement is intended to establish the
1
limits of development and not to guarantee construction or
-=l
development. City understands and agrees that any of the
development contemplated by this Agreement, and any of the
revenues or contributions which may be required pursuant to this
=
Nk. 1?JKr
Agreement, are contingent upon County and Corporation negotiating
'
a satisfactory lease of the property. The County and Corporation
-�
acknowledge .that it will be necessary to re -negotiate the leases
on the property, in order for Corporation to be able to develop
the project described in this Agreement. County, therefore,
agrees, to negotiate in good faith with Corporation to enter into
e
a new lease of sufficient scope and duration so as to allow-
26
_y
Corporation to develop the project as envisioned in this
Agreement. County and Corporation shall endeavor to notify City
of any public hearing or meeting which may relate to the develop-
ment contemplated by this Agreement at least ten (10) days prior
to the date of such meeting or hearing. Notice shall be given as
provided in this Agreement.

VIII. This Agreement is- in furtherance of a plan for
redevelopment of the property. County and Corporation seek to
transform underused portions of the property to their economic
advantage by constructing visitor -serving facilities of greater
27
J
intensity than now exist. City seeks to obtain certain offsite
benefits, including, among others, circulation system
improvements. All parties agree and recognize that it will not.
be practical to restore this property to its previous state once
any significant portion of the contemplated development is
undertaken. The parties hereto have made significant and
irrevocable commitments and have each given up certain rights and
powers in -order to achieve this agreement. The parties agree
that damages would not be an adequate remedy for the failure of
one of the parties to carry out its obligations under this_Agree-
ment, both because the property and this Agreement are unique,
and because it would be very difficult to estimate the amount of
damages •which could, or would, properly compensate the other
parties in the event of such failure or breach.
Thus, the parties agree that specific performance,
rather than damages, is the only remedy which would adequately
compensate the other parties in the event of the failure of one
party to comply with its duties and obligations as set forth in
this Agreement.
SX. City and County shall. annually review the parties'
29
I
performance of this Agreement. At its first meeting of each
calendar year, the Joint Harbor Review Committee shall review the
performance and implementation of this Agreement, prepare a
report and provide copes of the report to the City Council and
County Board of Supervisors. In connection with such review,
each party shall have a reasonable opportunity to discuss matters
�•u which it believes have not proceeded in accordance with this
Agreement, to receive from the other party information relating
C2 to its position on such matters and shall seek to resolve such
matters by negotiation.
rc '
? X. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective
i
successors and assigns.
1�
XI. No modification, amendment or other change in this
Agreement or any provision thereof shall be affected for any

THIS SECOND AGREEMENT AMENDMENT, entered into this, ay of
19 , by and between THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, a Municipal Corporation and Charter
' City, hereinafter referred to as "City," THE COUNTY OF ORANGE, a political
subdivision of''the State of California, hereinafter "County," and NEWPORT DUNES,
INC., a California Corporation, hereinafter "Corporation," and the ORANGE COUNTY
HARBORS, BEACHES AND PARKS DISTRICT, organized pursuant to Division 8, Part II of
the Harbors & Navigation Code, hereinafter "District," is made with reference to the
following facts, the materiality and existence of which is stipulated by and between
the parties hereto:
A. County is currently leasing 72-acre Newport Dunes Aquatic Park,
hereinafter referred to as "the property," to Corporation under a 50-year lease
agreement dated February 25, 1958. Corporation has constructed various recreational
and visitor -serving facilities located on the property pursuant to lease provisions.
B. Litigation was instituted by City in 1981 in response to County's
approval of proposed general redevelopment plans for the property. Subsequent
negotiations between all interested parties resulted in a Settlement Agreement,
approved by the Board of Supervisors on May 17, 1983. Among the provisions
described therein, the Settlement provides for City and County to annually review
parties' performance of the agreement through the Joint Harbor Review Committee and
for said Committee to prepare a report for the City Council and Board of
Supervisors.
C. City, County, and Corporation now wish to amend the Settlement to
delete the requirement for an annual review'and'report by the Joint Harbor Review
Committee, in consideration of the fact that said Committee has not been duly
organized and that adequate administrative mechanisms exist to conduct such review
and prepare reports as may be necessary once project implementation begins.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree to amend Section IX to read as
follows:
"City and County shall periodically review the parties' performance of this
Agreement. In connection with such review, each party shall have a reasonable
opportunity to discuss matters which it believe have not proceeded in accordance
with this Agreement, to receive from the other party information relating to its
position on such matters, and shall seek to resolve such matters by negotiation."

'%�11/r`�a/
muTc a/'_aFFMFNT PntPrP[3 into this /�7v ref •_ �'�L �' rr LiF'/A- _
1988, by and between THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, a Municipal
Corporation and Charter City, hereinafter referred to as "City,"
THE COUNTY OF ORANGE, a Political Subdivision of the State of
California, hereinafter "County," and NEWPORT DUNES PARTNERSHIP, a
California Partnership, hereinafter "Company," is made with
reference to the following facts, the materiality and existence of
which is stipulated by and between the parties hereto:
A. Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 526 of the
California State Statutes of 1919, the State of California granted
certain tidelands to County. These tidelands were regranted by
the State to the County, pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 415
of the Statutes of 1975. The legislature imposed certain
conditions and restrictions on the use of the granted property.
The tidelands referred to in these two grants, together with a
small parcel of uplands, are described in Exhibit "A" to this
Agreement, and are hereinafter referred to as "the Property";
B. Newport Dunes, Inc., formerly a California
corporation (NDI) has, in the past, constructed certain
recreational and visitor -serving facilities on the property,
including the following:
1
(1) A beach, consisting of approximately ten (10)
acres, together with concessions to serve beachgoers, such as,
fast food stands and businesses which rent beach equipment;
(2) A recreational vehicle and travel trailer
camping area, with 64 spaces fully serviced by sewer, water and
electricity and 80 spaces which are partially served by such
utilities;
(3) A restaurant known as Anthony's Pier II located
on the northwesterly edge of the swimming lagoon and consisting of
approximately 71500 sq. ft. of public area, and a coffee shop,
consisting of approximately 2,000 sq. ft. of public area and
located on the easterly side of the lagoon in the area of the
current boat -launching facilities;
(4) Boat and marina -related facilities consisting of
approximately 230 slips, a boat repair business, a canvas shop,
maintenance storage and dry boat storage area with room for
approximately 350 boats and a six -lane boat launching ramp;
(5) A structure, located near Anthony's Pier II,
consisting of approximately 1,500 sq. ft. which presently serves
as the headquarters and equipment yard for company.
C. Commencing in 1976, County and NDI embarked on a
process designed to redevelop the property by enlarging or
improving existing facilities and constructing new facilities.
This process culminated in 1980, with the approval, in concept,
of a redevelopment plan for the property which called for the
construction of:
Pq
(1) A motel or family inn;
(2) Meeting rooms with a seating capacity for 400
persons;
(3) Additional restaurants, coffee shops and snack
bars, at least one of which would seat 150 persons;
(4) 263 additional boat slips;
(5) A "marina village" consisting of approximately
50,000 sq. ft. of commercial and retail development with
approximately 20,000 sq. ft. of facilities described as marina
amenities;
(6) A modern recreational vehicle park; and
(7) other development to support the primary uses.
D. The City instituted litigation challenging the
county's approval of the redevelopment plan for the property. In
1983, the parties resolved this litigation through a settlement
agreement which reduced the size and scope of certain components
of the project and obligated County and NDI to comply with
provisions of the Building and Zoning Codes of the City.
E. NDI has assigned its rights, duties and obligations
under the leases and original Settlement Agreement to Company.
F. The orange County Harbor, Beaches and Parks District,
which was a party to the original Settlement Agreement, has been
dissolved, with County of orange designated as successor agency,
therefore, District is not a necessary or appropriate party to
this amended Agreement.
3
G. The parties to the original settlement agreement have
determined that unanticipated delays in constructing the project,
a desire to construct a revised project, and changes in the
circumstances surrounding the project require execution of an
amended settlement agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
I. City, in consideration of the covenants and promises
made by County and Company in this agreement agrees to approve
the development of the property contemplated in this agreement,
(conceptually illustrated on Exhibit "B,") provided County and

A. The existing dry boat storage capacity may be
increased to no more than 400 units. During the first phase of
construction, all dry boat storage shall be at surface level. If

10
III. Company, in consideration of the commitment of City
to approve the contemplated development as generally described in
this Agreement, stipulates and agrees as follows:
A. Company agrees to design and construct all new
development in accordance with the applicable Building and Zoning
ordinances of the City of Newport Beach and, specifically, agree
to construct new development in conformance with the following:
1. No structure, nor any portion of the
structure, shall exceed a height of 3.8.5 feet. Mechanical
equipment may be permitted in excess of the basic 35 foot height
limit provided the equipment does not exceed a height of 38.5 feet
and is fully screened from public view. No structure shall exceed
three (3) stories and the family inn shall be constructed with a
pitched roof. Chimneys and vents are permitted to exceed the
height limit specified in this paragraph only to the extent
required to comply with state law or local ordinances;
2. Except as otherwise provided in this
agreement, parking for all new development will be in conformance
with the parking standards of the City of Newport Beach as set
forth in Chapter 20.30 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code; and
3. All signs and sign structures shall conform
to the provisions of Chapter 20.06 of the Newport Beach Municipal
Code.
B. Company shall comply with the Traffic Phasing
Ordinance and Fair Share Ordinance of the City of Newport Beach.
Company shall have satisfied Traffic Phasing and Fair Share
11
requirements upon payment of the sums specified in this section.
Amendments to the Traffic Phasing or Fair Share ordinance which
would otherwise increase the fees to be paid by County or Company
shall not be applicable to the development contemplated in this
agreement. The appropriate method and time for the payment of
these fees has been difficult to determine in that: (1) while the
early phases of development will not generate substantial levels
of traffic over and above those which now exist, infrastructure
necessary to accommodate the family inn and other traffic
intensive uses will be constructed during the initial phases of
the project; and (2) the number of building and grading permits
required for each phase of the project, and the potential that
development within each phase will not proceed at the same time,
make it extremely difficult for the parties to determine what
percentage of Traffic Phasing or Fair share Fees should be paid in
conjunction with any specific permit. The method of payment
specified in this Agreement represents the parties best efforts to
establish a fee schedule consistent with the intent of the Fair
Share and Traffic Phasing ordinances.
1. Company shall pay $600,000 to comply with
the provisions of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance. This sum will be
Used to reimburse the City for a portion of the $2,058,000 spent
to date, and the additional $724,000 to be spent in the 1988-89
fiscal year, on circulation system improvements which were
required, in part, because of traffic generated by this project.
Company and County have benefitted by the City's early
12
11
L
11
11
11
construction of these improvements which were to have been funded,
in part, by the $600,000 payment required by the original
agreement.
2. Company shall pay Fair Share fees in the
sum of $233,402. This fee is based upon "new traffic" of 3,213
average daily trips, multiplied by the current rate of $99.27 a
trip and reduced by a credit of $282,902 for master plan
circulation system improvements funded by the Traffic Phasing
Ordinance payments required by this Agreement.
3. The Fair Share and Traffic Phasing
Ordinance fees required by this Agreement shall be paid as
follows:
a) The sum of Twenty Five Thousand
($25,000) Dollars concurrent with the execution of this Agreement;
b) The sum of Seventy Five Thousand
($75,000) Dollars prior to the issuance of the first' building
permit for any of the projects described in Phase 1 (RV Park, Day
Use, Boat Launch, Boat Storage, Marine Repair Facility, Coffee
shop and Operations Center);
c) The sum of Seventy Five Thousand
($75,000) Dollars prior to the issuance of the first occupancy
permit for any project described in Phase 1;
d) The sum of Five Hundred ($500)
Dollars per slip to be paid prior to the issuance of the final
building or harbor permit necessary to the construction of the
slips (the Fair Share and Traffic Phasing fees totalling $835,402
13
have been calculated on the assumption that 200 new boat slips
will be constructed. In the event less than 200 boat slips are
constructed, the Traffic Phasing and Fair Share fees required by
this Agreement shall be reduced by a sum equal to the difference
between the 200 slips predicted and the actual number constructed
multiplied by $500.)
e) The sum of Fifty Thousand ($50,000)
Dollars prior to the issuance of the first building permit for the
first building permit for the construction of a restaurant on the
site formerly occupied by Anthony's Pier II;
f) The sum of One Hundred Thousand
($100,000) Dollars prior to the issuance of the first building
permit for the family inn;
g) The sum of Four Hundred Ten Thousand
Four Hundred Two ($410,402) Dollars prior to the issuance of the
first occupancy permit for the family inn.
4. The fees required by the preceding
paragraph shall be paid by Company or by Company's sublessee.
5. The County, City and Company will meet and
confer on the specific circulation system improvements to be
financed by Company's payment of the Fair share and Traffic
Phasing fees required by this Agreement, to the extent funds
remain after consideration of improvements previously made by
City. The parties acknowledge that, to the extent possible,
Company's payments should be used to finance improvements to those
14
t
11
components of the city's circulation system most heavily impacted
by the development authorized in this Agreement.
C. Company shall construct an interpretive center, -
to be located near the northeast corner of the property. The
function of the interpretive center shall be the provision of
information and educational materials relative to the Upper
Newport Bay Ecological Reserve. Educational programs offered by
the interpretive center shall be coordinated with the Department
of Fish and Game'and the interpretive center shall be integrated
into a trail system, approved by the Department of Fish and Game,
that will allow interested persons access to portions of Upper
Newport Bay.
D. Company agrees to construct a launching area
for human -powered and small sail craft and this launch area shall
be 'of sufficient size to accommodate, at a minimum, the current
use of the area for the launching of small sail boats and human -
powered craft by members of non-profit organizations such as the
Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts or similar organizations.
E. Company shall construct a bike trail, the
design, width and location of which is subject to the approval by
the County's Director of Harbors, Beaches and Parks/EMA and the
City Engineer, connecting Back Bay Drive with Bayside Drive. No
admission or user charge shall be imposed upon persons for use of
trail. Bicyclists shall be allowed access to the interpretive
center. Company shall install bike racks along the trail
adequate in number to accommodate demand. The bike trail may be
15
1
used by the City, County and other public entities engaged in
constructing, repairing or maintaining public facilities or
landscaping. The bike trail shall be designed to allow convenient
access for public vehicles engaged in the maintenance and repair
work.
F. Transient occupancy taxes will be imposed upon
users of the family inn and recreational vehicle park in
accordance with the provisions of Chapter 3.16 of the Newport
Beach Municipal Code. Transient occupancy taxes will be
collected, processed, and paid in accordance with the provisions
of Chapter 3.16 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.
GG. Company, with respect to any use of the
property which requires the payment of any tax or fee, for the
issuance of any permit, pursuant to the provisions of Title 5 of
the Newport Beach Municipal Code, agrees to pay such fee or tax
and/or obtain the required permit and comply with any and all
conditions imposed upon the issuance of the permit;
H. The following uses of the property shall not be
permitted:
1. Skateboard courses;
2. Fireworks displays except as approved by
the City Council of Newport Beach;
3. Small animal or reptile zoo;
4. The use of loudspeakers for paging or
announcements outside of any structure provided, however,

offsite;
2. The incorporation of water -saving devices;
3. The installation of grease traps in all

landscaping to be installed during the initial phase of
construction or as early as practicable once conflicts with other
construction activities are resolved.
IV. City agrees to provide a level of services to
Newport Dunes appropriate to the uses developed on the site and
consistent with that provided other properties in the City,
including, but not limited to, water, fire and police.
V. The promises and commitments of the parties as set
forth herein, are intended to bind the parties now and in the
future. The parties understand that this Agreement is similar to
a Joint Powers Agreement, and, as such, contains commitments of
both City and County sufficient to bind future boards and
councils, notwithstanding any change in the composition thereof.
City and County hereby expressly waive and give up any right to
challenge the validity of this Agreement, or any specific term or
condition hereof, based upon the contention that the legislative
bodies of cities or counties are not empowered to bind future
boards or councils, and each of the parties hereto stipulates that
18
Cl
N
the consideration set forth in this Agreement is adequate to
support this waiver.
VI. County shall not allow, and Company shall not
construct, any development on the property exceeding that
contemplated by this Agreement, without the concurrence of the
City Council of the City of Newport Beach. Any plan for future
development, not contemplated by • this Agreement, must be
accompanied by adequate environmental documentation as required by
law, and will be processed through the Planning Commission and
City Council of the City of Newport Beach in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter 20.80 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.
VII. The parties hereto recognize that the approval of the
California Coastal Commission and the State Lands Commission, will
be required for development of the property, and County and
Company covenant that, in requesting such approval, they will
seek no development in excess of that contemplated herein. City
upon request by County or Company agrees to notify, in writing,
all agencies which are required to approve the development
contemplated in this Agreement of its support and City will
endeavor to appear at public hearings before any Board or
Commission reviewing a proposal for such development or any
portion thereof, to express its support for the project. To the
extent that the California Coastal Commission and/or State Lands
Commission impose requirements upon County and Company not set
forth in, or at variance with, the provisions of this Agreement,
County and City agree to accept and incorporate as amendments to
this Agreement all said changes and/or variances, so long as said
changes and/or variances do not expand or increase the
concentration, intensity, density or type of the development as
contemplated by this Agreement. All parties understand that this
Agreement is intended to establish the limits of development and
not to guarantee construction or development. County and Company
shall endeavor to notify City of any public hearing or meeting
which may relate to the development contemplated by this
Agreement at least ten (10) days prior to the date of such meeting
or hearing. Notice shall be given as provided in this Agreement.

VIII. This Agreement is in furtherance of a plan for
redevelopment of the property. County and Company seek to
transform underused portions of the property to their economic
advantage by constructing visitor -serving facilities of greater
intensity than now exist. City seeks to obtain certain offsite
benefits, including, among others, circulation system
improvements. All parties agree and recognize that it will not be
practical to restore this property to its previous state once any
20
significant portion of the contemplated development is undertaken.
The parties hereto have made significant and irrevocable
commitments and have each given up certain rights and powers in
order to achieve this agreement. The parties agree that damages
would not be an adequate remedy for the failure of one of the
parties to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, both
because the property and this Agreement are unique, and because it
would be very difficult to estimate the amount of damages which
could, or would, properly compensate the other parties in the
event of such failure or breach.
Thus, the parties agree that specific performance,
rather than damages, is the only remedy which would adequately
compensate the other parties in the event of the failure of one
party to comply with its duties and obligations as set forth in
this Agreement.
IX. In the event Company fails to comply with its
obligations pursuant to this agreement, County shall have the
right to perform and shall be entitled to the rights and benefits
confered thereby.
X. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective
successors and assigns.
XI. No modification, amendment or other change in this
Agreement or any provision thereof shall be affected for any
purpose unless specifically set forth in writing and signed by a
21

duly authorized representative of the parties hereto.

Section I. Introduction
B. Governmental Agencies
The Site is located within the City of Newport Beach and,
therefore, is subject to the City's General Plan and Municipal
Code. The Site also is within the Coastal Zone and is, therefore,
subject to the California Coastal Act and the jurisdiction of the
California State Coastal Commission. The City of Newport Beach
is responsible for implementing the Local Coastal Program. The
County of Orange serves as the landowner and responsible agency
for the lease, settlement agreement and other ownership
responsibilities.
C. Purpose of The Newport Dunes Planned
Community District Plan
The City of Newport Beach Municipal Code allows a "Planned
Community District" (Chapter 20.35) to address land use
designations and regulations in Planned Communities. The
Newport Dunes PC District Plan serves as the controlling
ordinance for the Site. The PC District Plan is designed to be
consistent and in conformance with the City of Newport Beach
General Plan and Municipal Code and is authorized and intended
to implement the "Planned Community District" regulations of the
City of Newport Beach Municipal Code.
The specific purposes of the Newport Dunes PC District are found
in Section 20.35.010 of the Municipal Code as follows:
"A. To provide for the classification and development of
parcels of land as coordinated, comprehensive projects so
as to take advantage of the superior environment which can
result from large-scale community planning;
B. To allow diversification of land uses as they relate to
each other in a physical and environmental arrangement
while insuring substantial compliance with the spirit, intent
and provisions of this Code;
C. To include various types of land uses, consistent with
the general plan, through the adoption of a development
Newport Dunes Planned Community District Plan 3
07/13/99 11:33 AM
I
Part1 Land Uses, Development Standards & Procedures ,
Section I. Introdudon ,
plan and text materials which set forth land use
relationships and development standards."
The Newport Dunes PC District Plan achieves the three purposes
set forth above by: '
A. Providing for the classification and development of the
Site in five Planning Units which provides a coordinated, '
comprehensive project and takes advantage of large scale
community planning. The PC District Plan combines
provisions for the orderly site planning and development,
protection of sensitive and natural habitats, innovative
design concepts, design guidelines for consistent treatments
and a logical and timely sequence of community and '
governmental review and input;
B. Allowing for diversification of land uses in the five
Planning Units as they relate to -each other in the physical
and environmental arrangement along the Upper Newport
Bay while insuring substantial compliance with the spirit, '
intent and provisions of the Municipal Code;
C. Including various types of land uses, as set forth in
Figure 3 and Section III.0 consistent with the General Plan,
through the adoption of this PC District Plan and the
implementing Precise Plans setting forth land use
relationships and development standards set forth in
Section IV.
D. Project Approval Summ ary
,
Precise Plans processed pursuant to this PC District Plan will be
reviewed as set forth in Section V of this PC District Plan, as
summarized below:
1. PC District Plan
a. Scope and Purpose. The Newport Dunes PC District Plan
covers the entire 100 acre Resort Site Planned Community and

b. Process. The PC District Plan is approved and may be
amended or updated in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Municipal Code Chapter 20.35.
2. Conceptual Precise Plan
a. Scope and Purpose. The Conceptual Precise Plan '
addresses one or more Planning Units and may consider both
existing and proposed land uses. The Conceptual Precise Plan is
designed to allow a project to be brought before the Planning
Commission at a point in the conceptual design process which
allows early input of policy guidance from the City staff and the
community's representatives.
The Conceptual Precise Plan would address the important major
features of the project, the larger scale decisions and the macro
level determinations. The Conceptual Precise Plan will give policy
guidance to the Planning Director for her review and
administrative approval of the detailed Final Precise Plans.
The Conceptual Precise Plan allows the deoision-makers, staff, and
,.
community an opportunity to review and make input on the merits
of the project proposal at an early and logical stage in the planning
process. It also allows the applicant to receive input from the
decision -makers, staff, and community before finalizing the
engineering drawings necessary for implementation and final 11
approval.
b. Process. A Conceptual Precise Plan shall be reviewed and
approved in accordance with the process set forth in Chapter 20.91
and Chapter 20.95 of the Municipal Code.
3. Final Precise Plan
a. Scope and Purpose. The Final Precise Plan shall include
the final engineering necessary to pull building permits and other
supporting implementing information set forth in Section V.13.2 of
this PC District Plan. The Final Precise Plan is a more precise,
detailed and engineered plan that implements the policy guidance
in the Conceptual Precise Plan.

Part 2 Design Guidelines
Section. I. Introduction
' I. INTRODUCTION
' A. Intent
'
The following Design Guidelines expand upon the regulations set
forth in Part 1, Land Uses, Development Standards and
Procedures of the Newport Dunes Planned Community (PC)
'
District Plan. The Design Guidelines detail the intent behind
design direction for the Resort Village and provide the guidelines
for design decisions during the refinement and approvals process
'
associated with the Conceptual and Final Precise Plans. The
Design Guidelines apply to the Newport Dunes Resort Site,
approximately 100 acres along Upper Newport Bay.
The property, first leased and developed in 1958, has consistently
provided visitor serving aquatic -oriented uses in a resort setting.
The Design Guidelines will fiuther the existing quality in new
development and provide compatibility with current facilities and
'
surrounding land uses.
'
1. Intent of Guidelines
The Design Guidelines were prepared with three specific
objectives in mind:
■ To create a consistency of scale, design and character of a
cohesive resort village which fits comfortably within its
surroundings;
■ To ensure that the phased development of the destination resort
village maintains and enhances the character of Newport Bay
and the surrounding City of Newport Beach; and,
■ To develop the concepts and conditions which govern property
'
development.

' Newport Dunes Planned Community District Plan 1
I
Part 2 Design Guidelines
Section I. Introduction
2. Intent of Resort Village "Character"
The resort's character is intended to portray the atmosphere of a
cohesive Spanish Mediterranean resort village. Land uses will be
massed in clusters around the lagoon, oriented to the bay and boat
harbor. Uses will be grouped with similar activities, buffered from
their surrounding uses and connected by paths and promenades.
At a site -specific scale, individual buildings will be clustered
around courtyards and will open up to Newport Bay and the
swimming lagoon. Height and mass
will minimize visual impacts from
& "'{ surrounding properties and public
;! viewsheds. Materials and
' ' > architectural detail will be in
a keeping with the Spanish
Mediterranean style. Landscape
design will interface between the
surrounding land uses, especially
the Upper Newport Beach
Ecological Reserve and the
surrounding community while
creating a richly textured and
colorful sequence of Spanish
Mediterranean gardens. Within the
development, the character is envisioned to capture the romance of
the Mediterranean courtyards. Access and circulation will allow
the guest to explore and enjoy the resort setting. Paths and routes
will be hierarchical with clear signage directing the visitors and
guests. Access points will be varied to separate uses and minimize
impacts.

II. DESIGN GUIDELINES
A. Using these Guidelines
These Design Guidelines will be used in conjunction with Part 1,
Land Uses, Development Standards & Procedures and other
applicable codes, documents and ordinances to assess the
consistency of proposed projects as they are brought forward in the
process.
Each guideline category begins with
the intent of that specific section of
guidelines. The intent forms the
foundation for discretionary
decisions, and provides the reasons
"why" a design guideline was
developed. The intent describes the
overall character that is envisioned
and what objectives are necessary to
attain the desired effect. It should be
used as the basis for any future
decision making, allowing the
guidelines the flexibility they require
for implementation over time.
These Design Guidelines include the following two types of
guidelines;
o Rigid development controls that must be adhered to.
Identified with a "check box," these firm controls can be used
as a checklist to confirm that all required items are met.
➢ Recommendations that are firm in principle, but non-specific
in detail; or those that are general conceptual ideas that present
a possibility, rather than a requirement.
These are discretionary and are presented as recommendations
rather than requirements. The non-specific recommendations
and conceptual ideas are no less important than fixed
development controls. They are not quantifiable or established
in location. They contribute substantially to the character of
the village.

Section III. The Built Environment
M. THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT
A. Building Location & Massing Criteria
Intent. The intent of the building massing and location criteria is
to ensure that the development has an appropriate scale, is related
to its use and location; and is integrated
with adjoining land uses and features so
as to become a cohesive development.
The "location" criteria create specific
pods of activities, arranged so that they
create interior (courtyard) and open
spaces, which reinforce the Spanish
Mediterranean character of the
development. Major buildings
(excluding those used as storage, trash
enclosures, restrooms, etc.) should follow
the following guidelines:
■ Site planning principles
■ Building envelopes, including building setbacks, building
height and "step -backs"
■ Open space areas
• Critical Corridors (view or pedestrian/vehicular circulation)
Newport Dunes Planned Community District Plan 6
' Part 2 Design Guidelines
' Section III. The Built Environment
1. Site Planning Principles
Intent: The site planning principles reflect the unique natural
conditions of this property. Being that the area nestles within a
' "well' or natural depression, and focuses clearly on the lagoon and
bay, all site organization, massing, and features should respect
these natural conditions.
➢ Structures and elements should be firmly and clearly `rooted" into
the ground, wider than they are tall, and anchored at their base.
➢ Site organization should respect the angles of sun and shade, and
'
capture the cooling ocean breezes where feasible.
2. Building Envelopes
t
Intent: Building envelopes govern the placement and scale of the
major buildings. The intent of the envelopes is to cluster buildings
into neighborhoods with buffers of open space between. Each of
'
these neighborhoods will be linked by the shoreline promenade
surrounding the Iagoon. Appropriate setbacks, view corridors,
building heights and "step -backs" (dimension in which fagade
steps back above a determined height, see diagram under Building
Step -back Guideline, page 11) define these envelopes. These
'
envelopes apply to the primary buildings rather than support
structures used for storage, trash, restrooms, etc.)
'
Setbacks
❑
All buildings will be setback based upon their location and
relationship with the waters edge or edge of adjacent properties.
❑
Building Setbacks along beach sites are minimum 100 feet from
the mean high tide line in order to develop the beach resort
atmosphere (excludes beach restrooms, cabanas or picnic shelters).
'
o
Building Setbacks along bulkheads are minimum 10 feet from the
I-,
top of bulkhead in order to develop a shoreline pedestrian walk.
❑
Pacific Highway Building setbacks are a minimum of 50 feet from
'
the right of way.
❑
Back Bay Drive Building setbacks along are a minimum of 20 feet
'
from the right of way.

Building Plane Setbacks
In order to protect existing residential areas from shade impacts of
new development, a refined setback applies to new major
structures built adjacent to existing, off -site residential uses.
❑ Based upon the extent of shade in the worst case (morning of the
winter equinox) situation, the following setbacks apply:
Building 35 feet high 80 feet min. along 43' north*
Building 50 feet high 115 feet min. along 43° north*
Building 75 feet high 172 feet min. along 430 north*
*Note: Daylight Plane setbacks are not measured perpendicular
from the property line as standard setbacks are measured. Daylight
Plane setbacks are measured along a line 431 from true north,
which is the angle of the maximum shadow (see discussion in
Part 1, Land Uses, Development Standards & Procedures,

massing is suggested to not
parallel the setback line, so as
to increase the feeling of a

3. Building Elements
Intent. The intent of the building elements criteria is to define the
principal character, materials and colors, roofs, fenestration and
building features that will define the Spanish Mediterranean
character of the development and integrate it with existing and
phased development. It will develop apalette for the overall
appearance of the buildings, resulting in a compatible whole.
4. Building Character & Style
Intent. The intent of
choosing a style is
not necessarily to
dictate pure historic
re -interpretation, as
that would be
inappropriate for a
coastal California
location, but to evoke
the essence of the
graceful, old-world
character often found
in Mediterranean resorts of similar climate and waterside
conditions.
❑ Newport Dunes Resort will be in a Spanish Mediterranean Village
style.
❑ Roofs shall be treated as the fifth building elevation, and designed
accordingly, screening mechanical equipment from views.
➢ Details on buildings should reflect their hierarchical importance:
rich, heavily detailed fagades with multiple rooflines, towers, and
articulations should be found on the most prominent or important
buildings; simple but carefully crafted details shall be found on
the lesser or support buildings.
➢ Trellises, arcades, roof overhangs and varied articulations are
encouraged.

5. Materials
Intent: A compatible palette of building materials will provide
overall unity to the various buildings within the Newport Dunes
Resort Village, provide it with an identifiable image and create a
harmonious village environment. The selection of materials
encourages diversity and richness to contribute to the Spanish
Mediterranean village character.
Richer materials, with more detail and ornamentation will be used
in the principal buildings and at ground level. Simpler materials
may be used on secondary or support buildings or at higher levels
where viewed from a distance.
❑ The principal building surface material
will be painted or integral color troweled
stucco for the rustic Mediterranean
character.
❑ Pitched roofs will be primarily terra-
cotta barrel tiles, with pitches ranging from
4:12 to 6:12 ratios.
❑ Pathways, walkways and promenades
shall be primarily enhanced concrete, with
decorative bands, or aggregates as
appropriate. Unit pavers, such as terra-cotta
tiles or stone, may be used in detailed treatment areas, depending
on their hierarchical location.
❑ Site walls, when in publicly accessible or viewed areas, will be
primarily stucco with painted or integral color.
❑ Vision Glass (non -mirrored) will be used on all windows.
Trellises with a timbered
appearance and simple
capitals.
Rich paving materials
are used in an intimate
courtyard.
Newport Dunes Planned Community District Plan

Part2 Design Guidelines
Section III. The Built Environment
D Trellises should have a "heavy timber" appearance,
➢ Pre -cast or other columns should have a simple capital.
➢ Railings should be ornamental metal, timber -like, or cast stone,
depending on their hierarchical location.
➢ Pavilions and cabanas, which serve as permanent structures along
the beach or grassy shore to provide shaded and sheltered picnic
areas are to have full coverage or open trellised roofs and be open
on all sides. These can be designed like gazebos in wood, or with
block or stucco columns to match the nearby architecture.
6. Colors
Intent. A compatible range of colors is developed to nestle the
buildings into the landscape, respond to the environmental glare
from the sun and sea, and reinforce the building hierarchies.
❑ Primary fagade colors will be light, earthy colors, tending to the
creamy rose or peach palettes.
➢ Accent colors should be warm, tending to the deep earth tones, the
terra-cottas and the rich wood colors.
D Highlight colors can tend to the stronger -hued palette, if used
sparingly and for particular emphasis, such as orientation or
signage.
D Concrete: integral color should be provided where hierarchy
demands a richer material, and it should be derived from the warm,
sandy colors. Color or sandblasting should be provided to
decrease glare and reflectivity.

Section III. The Built Environment
A The Landscaped Environment
Intent: The strength of the natural environment should be
celebrated at Newport Dunes. Very few villages have such a
sheltered, protected location that focuses on the natural resources
of the lagoon, bay and surrounding Ecological Reserve. Much like
the Spanish Mediterranean village bespeaks its native environment
with architectural responses to the sun, views, natural light and
offshore breezes, the natural environment must be integrated
carefully into the built environment to create a cohesive village.
This can be achieved with a landscape palette that demonstrates
concern for its coastal setting; is compatible with the Back Bay
environs; is richly textured and detailed; and, limits its watering
demands. It is accomplished with the integration of open spaces,
revegetated with native plants or left in a natural state and blended
with the village with pathways or view corridors. Finally, it
celebrates the beach and lagoon as its primary focus, the reason for
the village's special location and unique sense of place.

Section III. The Built Environment
The five Planning Units of the site development: #1-ResortHotel
& Time-share; #2-RV Resort & Village Center; O-Day
Use/Beacb/Lagoon; #4-Boat Launch & Dry Boat Storage and #5-
Marina; also determine the landscape environment. Within the
highly active Hotel area, one can expect to find a lush palette
which responds to the use of the grounds while in the Marina or
Boat Launch areas, the landscape becomes more functional and an
interface to the surrounding open spaces.
1. Landscape
Intent. The richly planted, confined vegetation of the
Mediterranean village will define the character of the landscaped
areas within the resort. Bright colors, contrasting textures and
forms are encouraged. Landscape is
envisioned to be developed in zones,
and follow the hierarchical
arrangement corresponding to the
building types. That is, highly
important or substantial buildings
shall be landscaped very richly, with
great detail. Secondary or support
structures shall be landscaped with a
more simplified palette to
correspond to the building detail.
The level of "manicured"
appearance will increase as one
transitions from the rustic perimeter
to the carefully crafted courtyards.
Overall
❑ The overall palette will be one that uses watering requirements
responsibly and limits the use of turf to areas where people
congregate.
o All species will be non-invasive so as not to proliferate in the
natural areas off site.
❑ Species will be selected to respond to the coastal conditions of
sandy soil, wind, tog and salt air.
➢ Planting should be done in layers to promote diversity wherever
possible.

➢ Wherever possible, the minimum planting area depth should be '
four feet (4'), unless primary planting type is vines or
groundcovers. Small, narrow planting strips should be
'
discouraged.
Perimeter
❑ Tree species selected will minimize raptor roosting sites in
'
sensitive.areas and the planting plan developed in conjunction with
the Newport Dunes Hotel and Time -Share EIR.
❑ Transitional landscapes will be of the native and naturalized

palette, utilizing materials found in the surrounding natural
environment and/or related species proven to be non-invasive.
❑ Perimeter landscapes abutting other uses will contribute to
'
screening and separati
on.
'
Parking Lot Landscape
❑
Parking lot trees will be provided so that one tree is planted for 5
stalls counted in a linear dimension. In double loaded parking
'
arrangements, one tree counts for both parking rows. Standards
are outlined in Part 1, Land Uses, Development Standards and
Procedures (Section IV Site Development Standards) and further
'
refined in Part 2, Design Guidelines (Section C. Circulation, 3.
Parking).
❑
Trees are not required on parking structure decks above grade or in
'
parking lots in boat launch or boat -trailer areas as it may interfere
with the queuing and turning radius of operations.
➢
Tree species should be selected to provide maximum shade and
minimize root upheaval to pavement. Parking lot trees should be
broad leaf canopy trees or palms.
➢
Parking lot trees should be planted in cutouts with a minimum 16
'
square feet of opening.
➢
Parking lot trees should be protected from cars by curbs, wheel -
stops or other bumper mechanisms.
➢
Pedestrian pathways from parking lots to destinations should be
articulated with palms and lush vegetation.

Beach Landscape
➢ Beach landscape should be simple, singular masses of species,
such as palm trees in informal clusters along the promenade or
large grassy areas for picnics and recreation.
Internal Landscapes
➢ The landscapes of the courtyards and
building perimeters should be the most
detailed, richly planted and interesting.
➢ A diversity of flowers, colors,
fragrance and textures should contribute to
this richness.
➢ Vines are encouraged at all fences and
trellises.
➢ Fountains, pools and decorative water
features are encouraged.
2. Open Spaces
Intent. Natural areas within the village resort contribute to the
relaxed, natural character of the area. They shall be maintained in
their rustic state, allowing public access only where appropriate to
protect sensitive species.
❑ The landmass, Coney Island, a promontory separating the lagoon
from Upper Newport Bay, shall remain undeveloped. Planting will
be coastal native species. Invasive species should be eradicated.
a The interpretive lookout will be limited to a visual access to the
Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve.

C. Circulation
1. Streets
Intent: Streets will serve as both the gateway and entry into
Newport Dunes Resort and for internal circulation. The character
of each will be very different. Entrylgateway streets ate intended
to serve as project symbols or "wayfinding." These may have
sidewalks, medians, and a formal approach. The plazas,
courtyards and porte cocheres will define entries and gateways.
Internal streets will be more in keeping with the alleys of the
Mediterranean village. These serve as internal access points,
service roads and minor connections. Therefore, they should be as
narrow as physically possible, with an informal and possibly
irregular character.
Entry Streets
a Entry streets are public streets outside or adjacent to the Resort and
provide access to the site entries. Entry streets are Back Bay Drive
and Bayside Drive.

2. Service & Emergency Routes
'
Intent. Service areas and service access within the project should
occur "hidden" from the resort village wherever possible.
Although recognized as a necessary part to any village
'
environment, service routes should be zoned wherever possible to
keep "back of the house" service separate from main activity areas.
In more visible locations, narrow alleys and walks could serve as
service corridors, designed to be pedestrian for the remainder of
the time.
'
❑ Main service drives and loadin0ocks will be well screened from
any surrounding off- or on -site non -compatible use.
,
a Trucks in loading bays shall be required to have a minimal idling
time to reduce air and noise pollution.
❑ Emergency access routes will be provided from internal streets and
around the lagoon pathway, as required to meet fire code.
➢ Pedestrian paths, designed to also carry service or emergency
vehicles, should acknowledge the load differential in its sectional
reinforcing.

3. Parking
Intent. Parking will be in concentrated areas, either structured or
surface lots. The intent is to minimize the impact of parking
wherever feasible. (Existing parking lots that are not significantly
modified with new construction are considered "grandfathered" in
terms of landscape requirements).
Well planted

contribute to
the overall
quality of the
resort.
Surface ParkinE
❑ Planters to reduce the large expanse of asphalt will interrupt
surface parking. Trees should be planted in surface parking lots at
a rate of one tree per five (5)stalls. When stalls are in a double
loaded run, one tree per 10 stalls is acceptable (see diagram and
refer to Part 2, Section III, B.1 Landscape Guidelines, page 17).

5. Pedestrian Circulation
Intent: Non -motorized circulation will be encouraged throughout
the entire resort area. In keeping with the relaxed character of the
'
village, pedestrian and bicycle circulation should meander
throughout the resort, connecting courtyards and activities and
providing discoveries, destinations, and places of interest along the
way.
❑ Clear pedestrian routes to the waterfront will be delineated with
special paving, markings, and/or trees.
❑ Sidewalks will be predominantly concrete, which narrow as small
'
paseos or passageways and expand into plazas and courtyards to
offer a variety of experiences.
❑ Slip resistance and disabled accessibility will be provided
throughout.
➢ Concrete should be simple in its treatment, using naturally "sandy"
colors and non -reflective surfaces to reduce the glare of the bright
sun.
➢ Courtyards or special, enhanced walks may be unit pavers, file or

External Bicycle Routes
Intent: External bicycle routes are part of the larger bicycle
circulation system within the Newport Beach and Orange County.
These links connect the greater Back Bay area to the Ecological
Reserve.
❑ The eastern external route is a bicycle lane (5 feet in each
direction) within Back Bay Drive from the Upper Newport Bay
Ecological Reserve.
❑ The external route on the property shall be a Class 1, 10-foot wide
path along the southern and western property line. It serves as a
by-pass to the busy intersection of Jamboree Road and Pacific
Coast Highway.
❑ The route will be continued on the western side of the property as
bicycle lanes (5 feet in each direction) within the roadway of
Bayside Drive to connect with the regional lanes along Pacific
Coast Highway.
❑ A Class 1 bicycle trail (off -road) -along the north curb of Bayside

Back Bay Drive to the waterfront.
❑ Views of undesirable elements, such as service bays and loading
docks shall be screened from views outside the property.
Views within Newport Dunes property:
❑ View corridors will parallel pedestrian paths to the water.
➢ Views should be enhanced and orchestrated, rather than axial in all
locations. This allows glimpses of the destination, landmark or
water as one approaches and encourages movement through the
spaces.
➢ Use of arches, plantings and other foreground elements to frame
views is encouraged.

Natural Landmarks
Intent: Natural features serve as locational reminders of the
special resort character Newport Dunes offers. Views to the
landmarks should be enhanced and protected.
o Coney Island and the Lagoon are
the principle natural landmarks of the
resort village and these landmarks
should be maintained in their natural
condition.
❑ Coney Island and Bay views from
publicly accessible areas within the
Resort should be enhanced and
emphasized wherever possible.
Architectural Features as Landmarks
Intent: Architectural features serve as
internal landmarks. They imply the
hierarchy of the building types as well
as highlight entries or special built
features.
➢ Towers, architectural features and
elements of buildings that identify its
function, such as rotundas and
arcades, are encouraged as project
landmarks. However, such features
should not be used to excess.

photographs may require metal panel signage. In all cases, metal
panels shall be incorporated into a wood or painted frame to match
the character of other site signage.
General Signage Guidelines
❑ No billboards or roof -mounted signage will be utilized within the
project area.
❑ No neon signs or intemally illuminated can signs (unless they have

5. Walls, Fences & Screens
Intent: Walls, fences and screens are used to separate undesirable
or inconsistent uses and to provide security and safety throughout
' the project. Many can also serve as sound barriers, pedestrian and
vehicle control, or visual amenities. The perimeter treatment
should provide security as well as screen undesirable or
inconsistent views where necessary. It is intended that all walls,
fences and screens are integrated into the overall design style of
the project and, likewise, be treated in a hierarchical manner.
' ❑ A screen shall be installed along all site boundaries where the
premises abut residential areas. Except as otherwise provided
'
below, the screening shall have a total height of not less than
six feet (6') nor more than seven feet (T), except for
'
landscaping, which may be higher, or those screens also
required for sound walls.
❑ Screening along all public streets and boundaries shall have a
maximum height of 36 inches. (Notwithstanding screening
'
requirements, adequate vehicular and pedestrian sight distance
shall be maintained to the satisfaction of the Planning
Director.)
❑ A screen shall be installed along all parking areas abutting
highways and have a total height of not less than 36 inches or
'
more than 42 inches.
❑ Where the finished elevation of the property at the boundary
line, or within five feet inside the boundary line is higher or
lower than the abutting property elevation, such change in
elevation maybe used in lieu of, or in combination with,
additional screening to satisfy the screening requirements.
➢ A screen may consist of one or a combination of the following:
a. Walls (Including Retaining, Walls): concrete, stone,
'
brick, file or similar type of solid masonry materials
a minimum of six inches thick.
b. Berms: constructed of earthen materials and
landscaped.
C. Solid Fences: constructed of wood or other
materials with a minimum nominal thickness of one
inch (1").

d. Landscaping: Vegetation, consisting of evergreen
or broad -leaf trees and/or shrubs. If deciduous
plants are interspersed, they should not consist of
more than 25% of the planting screen.
Walls, fences and screens shall be designed in a manner consistent
with the style of the adjacent architecture.
➢ Walls should be finished primarily in
x stucco, if viewed from the public or
T visitor domain. Painted, textured or
cinder -block walls are acceptable where
not in the primary viewsheds or when
maintenance requirements dictate (such as
1 at service areas).
➢ Primary fences, such as those at key
ti entrances, should be ornamental metals if
viewed in the public or visitor domain.
Secondary fences, such as those internal
= to the project, may be wood, in keeping
with the heavy timber Mediterranean design theme. Functional or
security fences; such as at the RV Resort, along bicycle paths, at
the boat storage, at parking lots or at areas of security, may be
chain link. Chain link fences are suggested to be coated and/or
have vines covering them wherever feasible.

➢ The palette of light fixtures should follow the
seaside village theme and respond to the
hierarchy of spaces.
➢ Taller, pole fixtures should be used for
roadways and traffic areas. Fixtures should be
double mounted wherever possible to reduce the
number of poles necessary.
➢ Shorter pole mounted fixtures are
encouraged for primary pedestrian circulation
routes, such as the Promenade.
➢ Appropriate pole height should be
determined by final fixture selection, but should
be kept as low as possible.
➢ Light fixtures should be of a dark, non -
reflective material.
➢ Bollards, rail mounted or wall mounted fixtures are encouraged for
secondary pedestrian areas. Their character should match the
architectural character of their planning unit.
➢ Lighting incorporated into buildings such as under arcades or over
doorways is encouraged to limit the number of freestanding
fixtures.
➢ Up -lights and moon -lights within trees are encouraged to increase
the ambient light, but should be designed with sensitivity to glare
and light spill within the property. In no case should up -lights
disturb off -site developments.
➢ Decorative architectural lighting that calls attention to special
function areas or features within the resort is encouraged.

' Dear Mr. Gleason:
This letter presents suitable methods that may be used to mitigate potentially liquefiable soils and
' discusses a possible nearby fault referenced in a prior geotechnical report prepared by others.
We previously submitted a Preliminary Geotechnical Assessment report, dated April 14, 1998,
and a Preliminary Geotechnical and Environmental report, dated May 7, 1998, discussing the
disposal of dredge materials for the proposed Newport Dunes Hotel project.
We are providing these services as discussed in our proposal dated October 26, 1998. You
authorized a reduced scope of work on November 6, 1998. The reduced scope of services
eliminated the proposed field exploration and included only a discussion of the methods to
mitigate liquefiable soils and how these methods may affect the environment. After you gave us
authorization for the reduced scope of work, Mr. Steve Ross of L.S.A. Associates, Inc.
' contacted us and requested we investigate a possible fault located nearby. The possible fault is
referenced in a report dated May 25, 1990 prepared by Leighton & Associates.
' The professional opinions presented in this letter have been developed using that degree of care
and skill ordinarily exercised, under similar circumstances, by reputable geotechnical consultants
practicing in this or similar localities. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made as to the
' professional advice included in this letter.
BACKGROUND
' Our Preliminary Site Assessment report dated April 14, 1998 concluded that potentially
liquefiable soils could be present at the site and that these soils could extend to approximately
Elevation —10 to —20. This conclusion was based on the review of the following geotechnical
' investigations:

Supplemental Information — Hardscape and Landscape Grading — Proposed
Marina Center - Phase IIA; prepared for Newport Dunes, Inc., dated May 1,
1991 (Our Project Number LCA 090067.AB).
Report of Foundation Investigation — Proposed Marina Center — Phase IIA;
prepared for Newport Dunes Inc., dated September 21, 1990 (Our Project
Number LCA 090067.AO)
• Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation —Newport Dunes Project; prepared by
Geowest Consultants for Newport Dunes, Inc., dated September 28, 1988.
Our April 14, 1998 report suggested possible liquefaction mitigation methods that involved soil
improvement techniques or structural techniques. The soil improvement techniques mentioned
consisted of, but are not limited to, vibro-compaction, vibro-replacement (stone columns), and
dynamic compaction. The structural techniques suggested included the use of deep foundation
piles to penetrate into the underlying non -liquefiable soils.
The following section presents soil improvement and structural techniques suggested in our
previous report, and additional soil improvement techniques not previously presented.
It should be noted that often a liquefaction mitigation measure involves a combination of
techniques or concepts. The most appropriate method(s) for mitigating the liquefaction potential
at this site will be dependent on the performance criteria of the buildings and the extent of
liquefiable soils underlying the site.
SOIL WROVEMENT METHODS
Soil improvement options can generally be classified as densification and mixing/hardening.
These methods may be combined and can be implemented to fully or partially mitigate the
potential for soil liquefaction, depending on the tolerance of the proposed structures to the effects
of soil liquefaction that include settlement, lateral spreading, and sand boils (Martin and Lew,
1998).
Densification Methods
Vibro-compaction (a.k.a. vibro-flotation), vibro-replacement (stone columns) and deep dynamic
compaction are densification methods.
Vibro-compaction and vibro-replacement techniques use similar equipment, but use different
backfill material to accomplish soil densification. The appropriate method to use depends of the
gradation of the soils to be densified. Vibro-compaction is generally effective for granular soils
with less than about 10 percent fines. Vibro-replacement is generally effective for soils
containing less than 20 percent fines and also in stratified soils.
For vibro-compaction, crane -mounted probe -type vibrators are inserted into the soils to the
design depths to locally densify the soils. A conical depression may occur at the ground surface
as the vibrator penetrates and densifies the loose soils, This method will result in an increase in
2
' Newport Dunes hic. — Liquefaction Uitigation Methods December 4, 1998
Lem,lCrundcdl Project 70131-8-0192.0002
' the soil strength parameters through densification, effectively lowering the soils susceptibility to
liquefaction and reducing the effects of soil liquefaction.
' For vibro-replacement, a crane mounted depth vibrator penetrates the soils to the design depth.
Stone backfill is then added in lifts, each lift being compacted by the horizontal force of the
vibrator to form a "stone column". The resulting stone column and the remaining in -situ soil
' form an integrated densification and reinforcement system having low compressibility and high
shear strength (Hayward -Baker, Technical Publication, 1998)
' Deep -dynamic compaction is sometimes an economic site improvement technique that can be
used to treat (improve) a range of porous soil types. The method consists of hoisting a heavy
weight, typically between 15 to 35 tons, approximately 50 to 120 feet high with a crane and then
releasing the weight for a free -fall, controlled impact that imparts,energy to the ground. The
free -fall impact energy imparted to the ground is controlled by selecting the weight, drop height,
number of drops and spacing. Treatment depths up to 35 feet may be achievable in,granular
' soils. The major limitations of this procedure are vibration, flying matter and noise. For these
reasons, work often requires 100 to 200 feet clearance from adjacent occupied buildings or
sensitive structures.
' Compaction grouting consists of injecting a low -slump (less than 3-inches), mortar -type grout
under pressure to densify the soils. The injected grout remains in a bulb and densifies the
surrounding soils by displacement. Compaction grouting pipes are typically installed by drilling
' or driving steel pipes with minimum inside diameter of 2 inches to the design depths. Injection of
the stiff grout is typically accomplished with pressures ranging from 100 to 300 pounds per
square inch (psi) and refusal pressures are typically on the order of 400 to 500 psi. It is common
to use primary spacing patterns with secondary and tertiary locations, if. necessary. Typically, an
on -site batch plant is required to mix the grout.
Mixine and Hardening Techniques
Deep soil mixing involves mixing cement with the in -situ soil and is generally effective for the
' full range of liquefiable soils. The cement is injected via conduits within hollow -stem augers.
The augers are typically in groups of 1 to 5 shafts that are equipped with paddles above the auger
that churn and mix the soil and cement. The soil mixing rig is typically track -mounted.
Soil mixing improves the soil by creating either a soil -cement matrix for soil stabilization or by
forming structural elements to support earth or building loads. This method has only been used in
a few cases for liquefaction mitigation in North America and is much more common in Japan.
Permeation (a.k.a. chemical) grouting involves the injection of low viscosity grout that infiltrates
the void space within the soil matrix of granular soils. Permeation -type grout typically consists of
sodium silicate or micro -fine cements that are designed based on the grain -size distribution of the
soil to be improved. Permeation grouting is generally effective for granular soils with less than
about 12 to 15 percent fines. Permeation grouting ,is primarily used is to aid in stabilizing soft
ground tunneling and control groundwater intrusion, but could also be used to harden the soil
and thus increase its resistance to liquefaction.

Jet grouting is an erosion/replacement method that forms soil-crete (soil and cement) cylindrical
or panel shapes to replace the soil. Soil erosion is initiated at the design depth through high -
velocity injection of cutting and replacement fluids, typically air/water and grout. As the soil is
cut and replaced, the uniform rotation and lifting of the drill rod can create various sizes and
shapes. Typically, cylindrical columns are formed, although, other shapes are possible by
varying the rotation of the nozzle. Because jet grouting is a replacement technique, significant
spoil, typically on the order of 80 to 100 percent of the volume of soil to be improved, will be
generated. Jet grouting is generally effective for a full range of soils, provided the soils are
erodable (Hayward -Baker. Technical Publication, 1998).
The jet grouting probes are typically installed using a conventional track -mounted rig. An on -site
batch plant is typical for jet grouting improvements.
STRUCTURAL SOLUTIONS
Structural solutions to mitigate potentially liquefiable soils include the use of conventional
drilled/driven piles to penetrate through the liquefiable soils. A grade beam system is used to
transfer building loads to the foundation piles and the floor slabs are typically structurally
connected to the pile and grade beam system. Thus, soils adjacent to and underlying the pile -
supported building may be subject to liquefaction induced settlement that could result in voids
under building floor slabs and vertical offsets at the perimeter of the buildings.
A structural solution is often more economical than the soil improvement techniques, however,
the structural solution may have little or no effect on the soil itself and may not reduce the
potential for liquefaction.
Piles may be drilled or driven and can be used for all ranges of soil types. Because of the shallow
groundwater, drilled piles may require special techniques including the use of casing or drilling
mud to prevent caving of the drilled shaft.
If the geotechnical investigation determines that there is a significant potential for large lateral
displacements due to liquefaction induced lateral spreading, a structural pile and grade beam
foundation may not be appropriate.
POSSIBLE FAULT ZONE
A "possible fault" has been identified on the adjacent Bayviety Landing property by Leighton &
Associates (1990). We have been requested to evaluate the impact (if any) this feature could have
on the site. Our evaluation included a review of available published and unpublished information
regarding the location of faults in the immediate area that included the geotechnical report for the
adjacent Bayview Landing property by Leighton & Associates (1990). We also contacted the City
of Newport Beach Planning Department regarding the most current documents used by the City
to identify faults in the City of Newport Beach area and any related planning/building
restrictions.

The following is a list of the documents we reviewed:
• Geotechnical Investigation and Site Plan Review of Bayview Landing, Corner
of Pacific Coast Highway and Jamboree Road, City of Newport Beach,
California by Leighton & Associates (1990).
• Geologic -Seismic Study (Phase I) for the City of Newport Beach General Plan
by Woodward -McNeill & Associates (1972)
• The City of Newport Beach Seismic Safety Element (Revisions through
1997)
• Fault Evaluation Reports for the Peninsular Ranges (California Division of
Mines and Geology Open -File Report 90-13, 1990)
• Recently Active Traces of the Newport -Inglewood Fault Zone, Los Angeles
and Orange Counties, California (California Division of Mines and Geology
Open -File Report 88-14, 1988)
• Seismic Hazard Map. City of Newport Beach, Planning Department
• Planning Scenario for a Major Earthquake on the Newport -Inglewood Fault
Zone (California Division of Mines and Geology 'Special Publication 99,
1988)
Based on our review of the listed documents and our discussions with the City of Newport Beach
Planning Department, there are no known faults with the potential for surface fault rupture at the
site or in the vicinity of the site. Leighton & Associates (1990) identified several faults during
their investigation on the adjacent Bayview Landing site. However, these faults were confined to
the bedrock and are considered inactive. Leighton & Associates observed a "possible fault" that
might offset colluvial soils during their investigation; however, this feature was not positively
identified as a fault.
In our opinion, there is a lack of evidence for the presence of an active fault on the adjacent
property and a lack of evidence of an active fault at the site. This conclusion is based on
published geologic maps, the Leighton & Associates report, and information available from the
City of Newport Beach. Thus, it is not necessary to conduct further investigation of the potential
impact this feature could have on the site.

I. INTRODUCTION
' The purpose of this report is to present the Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) to
be implemented as a part of the construction of the Newport Dunes Hotel and Time -Share
Resort. The project site location is shown on Figure 1. The WQMP will identify the
structural and non-structural Best Management Practices (BMPs) to be utilized onsite in
order to meet the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
requirements to the maximum extent practical.
The project site is immediately adjacent to the Upper Newport Bay State Ecological
' Preserve. The area is a marine and wildlife habitat preserve which supports several
endangered species of birds. The area, including the adjacent Swimming Lagoon at
Newport Dunes, is also a popular recreation area for humans as well as significant
' wildlife habitat. Maintaining the water quality of the Upper Newport Bay is essential to
assure that marine habitat and the habitat of the many bird species is not adversely
impacted by development within the watersheds tributary to the Bay.
This report is being prepared for the Newport Dunes Hotel and Time -Share Resort
Environmental Impact Report to address concerns about the project's effect on the water
quality of the Upper Newport Bay. It is being prepared at this stage of the planning
process to determine the project impacts and mitigation measures necessary to offset
those impacts.
H. PREVIOUS WATER QUALITY STUDIES
A number of previous investigations have been undertaken related to the Upper Newport
Bay and the Newport Dunes Swimming Lagoon.
' The studies related to the Upper Newport Bay were primarily concerned with control of
erosion within the tributary watersheds in order to minimize the delivery of sediment to
1 the bay and to effectively manage its removal (References 2, 3, 4, 5, and A series of
sediment removal projects were undertaken including the Early Action Plan (1983), the
In -Bay Unit I Basin Dredging Project (1985), the In -Bay Unit II Basin Dredging Project
(1988), and the dredging contract currently underway being administered by The Orange
County Public Facilities and Resources Department. These dredging projects have been
necessary to preserve the open water areas of the Upper Bay, assure continued tidal
flushing of the Bay, and thereby maintain the ecological quality of the wildlife and
marine habitats within the area.
The quality of surface runoff tributary to the Upper Bay was addressed in an early report
by Larry Seeman, Inc. in 1977 (Reference 1) which recommended new development
proposals be conditioned to provide sedimentation controls and implement non-structural
source controls. These conditions are now met by all new development within the
County of Orange since they must comply with NPDES requirements as dictated by the
Orange County Drainage Area Management Plan.
' OWSSASIOWr

Several water quality evaluations and studies have been prepared to assess the quality of '
the water in the Newport Dunes Swimming Lagoon (References 7 and 8).
Bacteriological evaluations have shown that the lagoon water quality is acceptable except
for the area near the outfall of the storm drain located on the east shore southerly of the
pedestrian bridge. Water samples collected from the drain have shown chronically high
levels of total and fecal coliforms (Reference 9). Newport Dunes water samples in the
vicinity of the drain outlet have also shown elevated levels of total and fecal coliforms.
The source of coliform bacteria monitored at the storm drain outlet is not from the
Newport Dunes. Refer to Section N.B. of this report for further discussion. '
M. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed Newport Dunes Hotel and Time -Share Resort site occupies approximately
30 acres adjacent to Upper Newport Bay, at the terminus of Bayside Drive, and north of
Pacific Coast Highway. Primary access -to the project site is via Bayside Drive, which ;
connects with Pacific Coast Highway.
The Newport Dunes Hotel and Time -Share Resort project site is part of the larger
Newport Dunes Resort, a 100-acre visitor -serving aquatic resort on Upper Newport Bay
in the City of Newport Beach. The property is owned by the County of Orange and
operated under a long-term lease to Evans Hotels. Existing improvements within the
Newport Dunes Resort area include a 10-acre Swimming Lagoon and surrounding beach,
a mile long pedestrian promenade around the swimming lagoon, day use facilities with
parking lot, picnic tables and covers, restrooms, a restaurant, a 450-slip marina, a 406-
space recreational vehicle park, swimming pools, meeting space, boat storage and
launching facilities, and other related facilities.
Developments and/or facilities surrounding the project site include: the De Anza Bayside
,
Village Trailer Park, a 250-unit senior -restricted mobile home park, which also contains
260 boat slips and dryboat storage located west of the project site; the Newport Dunes
Marina Administrative and Service Buildings to the north; the Newport Dunes
Recreational Vehicle Resort and Pacific Coast Highway to the south; and the Swimming
Lagoon, beach, picnic area, and boat launch facilities to the east.
The proposed Newport Dunes Hotel and Time -Share Resort project consists of a 400-
room hotel and 100 time-share units. The plans envision a full service destination resort
hotel, which will include: swimming pools; health, fitness and recreational facilities;
children's facilities; dining areas; ballrooms and meeting rooms; retail space; parking
garages; and landscaped garden areas. Interior facilities are expected to total
approximately 700,000 square feet. Up to 1,220 parking spaces are proposed to service
the facility, most,of which would be contained within a parking structure.

IV. SITE DESCRIPTION
A. Existing Onsite Drainage Conditions
Within the 30-acre hotel development site, storm runoff is directed to two general
discharge locations. These locations are as follows:
1. Drainage of approximately 9.5 acres, including the Newport Dunes
Marina Administration and Service Buildings, entrance road, and adjacent
parking area is conveyed to the Upper Newport Bay. The storm runoff is
collected by three existing polyethylene storm drain pipelines with catch
basins and other miscellaneous inlet structures. The three systems
discharge through the marina bulkhead into the Bay. Refer to Figure 2.
2. Drainage of the remainder of the 30-acre development site (approximately
17.0 acres), including a portion of the asphalt paved parking area between
'
the Marina area and the dredged spoil site and the campground area, is
conveyed to the Newport Dunes Swimming Lagoon. Storm runoff from
the existing campground areas and access roads is conveyed to the .
Swimming Lagoon by local storm drain systems. Refer to Figure 3. The
dredged spoil site, with a surface area of approximately 3.7 acres,
represents a containment area, and does not contribute storm runoff to the
Lagoon.
B. Existing Offsite Drainage Conditions
The topographic conditions of the site and the adjacent surrounding areas prevent
'
any significant storm runoff from entering the site. A small portion of the Hotel
entrance road (Bayside Drive), approximately 0.2 acre, currently drains onto the
site and is collected by the existing storm drain system draining to Newport Bay.
No other offsite areas drain to the proposed site. The existing storm drain systems
and outlets to the Back Bay and the Swimming Lagoon are shown on Figures 2
and 3, respectively.
Offsite drainage tributary to the Swimming Lagoon includes storm runoff from
the Newport Beach Country Club, the residential development area between the
Club golf course and Jamboree Road, and portions of the Hyatt Newporter Hotel.
The runoff is conveyed to the Lagoon through a storm drain system maintained by
the City of Newport Beach and the Hyatt Newporter Hotel. This storm drain
discharges on the east side of the Lagoon south of the pedestrian bridge.
Primarily during non -storm periods and during fast -flush storm events, pollutants
including elevated levels of total and fecal coliform bacteria have been detected in
the vicinity of the storm drain outlet. Coliform bacteria is an indicator of possible
'
disease producing bacteria, viruses and protozoa, also known as pathogens.
Studies have shown that the incidence of illness increases as the ratio of densities
1 019.93 AS1041n
of total coliforms to fecal coliforms decreases. When total coliforms exceeded
1,000 cfu (Colony Forming Units), the strongest illness producing effects were
observed for a ratio 2 to 1. See Reference No.12. Human illnesses associated
with bacteria include gastroenteritis, typhoid fever, various enteric fevers,
bacterial dysentery, and cholem illnesses associated with protozoa and viruses
include diarrhea, gastroenteritis, respiratory disease, fevers, rashes, paralysis,
aseptic meningitis, and infectious hepatitis.
Monitoring activities have been carried out by the County of Orange to quantify
the pollutant levels in the Lagoon. Pollutant levels have been sufficiently high in
the vicinity of the storm drain outlet to cause the Orange County Health Agency
(OCHA) to post signs prohibiting access to the Swimming Lagoon for a distance
of 300 feet along the beach at the outlet. According to OCHA staff, the Health
and Safety Code concerning Ocean Water Contact Sports Standards set a Most
Probable Number (MPN) level of 1,000 as the level at which body contact should
not be permitted. Signs are posted when 20 percent of the samples taken at a
sampling station for a 30-day period exceed 1,000 coliform organisms.
The data tabulated below shows the MPN of Total Coliform in a 100 ml sample
for selected sampling locations. The East, Middle, West, and North sampling
locations within the Swimming Lagoon are shown on Figure 3. In addition to
coliform bacteria, other pollutants such as trash, oils, greases, etc., discharge from
the drain into the Swimming Lagoon and ultimately into the Back Bay. This
condition is similar to many other storm drains which discharge directly to the
Back Bay.

A review of the data tabulated shows that Total Coliform levels near the storm
drain pipe outlet are effected by its discharge. Total Coliform levels within the
vast majority of the Swimming Lagoon do not appear to be effected except during
storms. The data also tend to indicate that the Total Coliform levels in the
Swimming Lagoon generally exceed those at the In -Bay Sampling Locations.
As a solution to the pollution problem, the Orange County Department of Beaches
and Parks conducted an investigation in 1991 to evaluate the possibility of
intercepting water and diverting it into the adjacent sewer line in Back Bay Drive
for delivery to a sewage treatment facility. Discussions with the County
Sanitation District of Orange County held in 1991 did not lead to an agreement
permitting the nuisance water diversion to the sewer line. Recent discussions
with the OCHA staff have indicated that several sanitation districts in the
Southern California area have shown a willingness to accept dry weather surface
flow diversions from selected areas. OCHA staff have indicated that this
particular site would be one of their high priority recommendations for such a
diversion.

Since drainage from the development site will be routed through water quality
structures and discharged directly to the Back Bay, the proposed Newport Dunes
Hotel and Time -Share Resort project will not exacerbate or contribute in any way
to this existing storm drain water quality problem area. The routing of storm
runoff, in fact, will improve the existing water quality condition of the Swimming
Lagoon since existing drainage areas within the 30-acre site are being drained to
the Back Bay. Consequently, no structural solutions to mitigate the impacts of the
pollutants within the Swimming Lagoon are being proposed as a part of this
WQMP. Newport Dunes is eager, however, to participate in discussions with the
OCHA, the CSDOC, the County of Orange, and others to seek a solution to the
problem.
Proposed Storm WaterManagememPlan
Since the project site is located adjacent to an environmentally sensitive area, i.e.,
the Upper Newport Bay State Ecological Preserve, special attention must be
directed to management and control of pollutants normally generated from a
commercial land use. Possible sources of storm water pollutants after
development of the project site include:
Oil, greases, and other motor vehicle fluids on paved areas including entry
access roads, parking lots, parking garages, and service vehicle delivery
areas;
• Litter and trash left in parking areas, streets, and -other storm conveyance
paths and sheet flow locations;
• Sediments and fine sands blown onsite from surrounding areas; I
• Vegetative matter from both onsite and offsite landscaping which may
enter the storm conveyance system; and
• Trash and litter around the trash bins.
Four independent backbone storm drain systems have been conceptually
developed to manage storm runoff from the 30-acre development site. These
systems are conceptually shown on Figure 4. The proposed drainage systems will
replace the existing drainage systems within the 30-acre development area. The
three existing storm drain outlets, which pass through the Marina Bulkhead wall
to the Upper Bay, will be utilized for three of the new drains. The fourth drain
will require a new outlet.
All storm runoff from onsite development areas, and a small area ofBayside
Drive tributary to the site, will be drained to Upper Newport Bay. Due to
topographic conditions at the site, storm runoff from the site cannot be drained
on.unsiaerr
6 1

directly to the ocean or any other alternative drainage system. Site runoff will be
specifically prevented from entering the Swimming Lagoon with the exception of
the beach area east of the promenade. This beach area slopes directly to the
Lagoon and does not include any impervious surfaces. Any pollutants which may
have found their way into the Lagoon from the 30-acre site under the existing
drainage condition will not occur with the proposed development plan.
A comparison of the impervious pavement and roof surface areas within the 30-
acre development site tributary to the Swimming Lagoon and to the Back Bay for
pre- and post -development conditions is tabulated below.

The tabulated data show that the street and parking surface areas, which produce
the majority of oils, greases, and miscellaneous vehicular pollutants, tributary to
the Lagoon and Back Bay will be reduced from 10.84 acres to 7.37 acres or by
approximately 32 percent as a result of the development. Roof surface acreage,
however, has increased significantly. Pollutants flushed from roofs during storms
are primarily wind blown grit, leaves, etc., which will be contained or managed in
Water Quality Best Management Practices as described in Section V.A.
The Best Management Practices to be implemented onsite as a part of the Hotel
project are described in Section V.
I
V. BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (BMPS)
A. Structural BMPs
Storm water pollutants from roof drains, street surfaces, parking lot and parking
structure areas, and supply delivery areas will be managed through specific
structural BMPs. The specific BMPs proposed for these drainage sources are
described below. Refer to Figures 4 and 5.
Roof Drains
Wherever possible the discharge from roof drains will be directed through turfed
swales or landscaped areas. At the end of these swales downdrains will be
provided to inlet the storm water to the nearest storm drain system. The turfed
swales encourage infiltration and tend to remove fine-grained sediments and silts
washed from rooftops prior to entering the storm drain systems. In the event final
design of the Hotel open space areas does not permit the use of swales, drainage
systems will be installed to direct roof drainage to a water quality BMP as
described in the following subsection.
Streets. Parking Lots. Supply Delivery Areas
It is proposed to utilize a number of storm water quality inlets or interceptor
structures to collect storm water runoff from these impervious surfaces. These
structures are essentially large manhole structures located entirely below grade. A
conventional manhole cover would be visible on the surface. They are normally
installed in streets or parking areas where grit, sediments, oils, and greases and
other pollutants accumulate. The structures are designed to separate pollutants
from the initial storm runoff and discharge "treated" storm water to the desired
drainage outlet.
A number of suppliers manufacture storm water interceptor structures which are
designed to remove from 50 to 100 percent of the oils, greases, and other
suspended solids found in the storm water runoff from a site such as the proposed
Newport Dunes Hotel and Time -Share Resort site. For the purpose of developing
a conceptual location and sizing plan, the Stormceptor System as manufactured by
CSR Hydroconduit was chosen. For this particular site, the number of
Stormeeptor units required was determined on the basis that the receiving water is
a "Sensitive Area." Under this criteria, up to of 80 percent of the Total
Suspended Solids (TSS) and the oils and greases in the storm water will be
removed.
Except for the most upstream drainage area tributary to the storm drain,
interceptor structures are positioned o8line from the mainline storm drain to
assure that only "treated" storm water is discharged to the receiving water, in this
MMIAS1040T 8
I
case, the Upper Newport Bay. The Stormceptor structures are designed to •
separate oils, greases, sediments, and other suspended solids from the initial storm
water runoff. A pollutant storage chamber is provided in the lower portion of the
structure. Storm water enters the lower chamber where sediments settle out and
floatables such as oil, greases, and floating debris are trapped. A special disc
insert separates the chamber from the storm drain inlet and outlet conduits. This
disc prevents the disturbance and flushing of sediments, floating debris, and other
pollutants from the chamber during high storm flows. A total of six Stormceptor
units are shown on Figure 4. A typical Stormceptor structure is shown in Figures
5, 6, and 7. These figures depict the general low flow and storm flow operation,
and indicate the general configuration and dimensions of the structures and the
disc insert.
In addition to removal of TSS, storm water interceptor structures provide
additional protection against spills which may occur on paved surfaces near
delivery sites or in the vicinity of trash bins. Such spills would collect in the.
Stormceptor pollutant storage chamber.
Storm water interceptor structures must be periodically maintained, usually on an
annual basis. Generally following the storm season, the structures would be
inspected and accumulated pollutants removed using a conventional vacuum
truck.
The Stormceptor System has been used in a large number of applications •
throughout the United States. "In the field" testing has shown that the TSS
removal percentage (80%) indicated above will be achieved. These tests also
have shown that more than 95 percent of the storm water borne hydrocarbons will
be removed. Stormceptor structures have been or will be installed at the
following southern California locations:

A similar water quality structure has been installed in the boat washing area
within Newport Dunes near Back Bay Drive. This boat washing facility is located
as shown on Figure 3.
Parking, Structure Areas
Storm runoff from the top level of the parking structure will be directed to storm
water interceptor structure Nos,1 and 2 as shown on Figure 4. For the lower
parking garage levels, it has been assumed that the paved surfaces will be
periodically swept and only occasionally washed down. Down drains from the
various structure levels will be provided and connected to the drainage conduits
delivering runoff to the storm water interceptor structures.
Other Structural BMPs M
Other structural BMPs to be utilized within the development are the following:
• Efficient Irrigation Systems
Irrigation systems will be installed and programmed to apply the proper
volume of water and avoid excess runoff.
• Wash Water Controls for Food Preparation Areas
Hotel restaurants and other food processing concessions will have either
contained areas, sinks,tach with sanitary sewer connections for disposal
of wash waters containing kitchen and food wastes. The installation of
grease traps in all kitchen facilities is a code requirement of the City of
Newport Beach. If located outside, the contained areas, sinks shall also be
structurally covered to prevent entry of storm water.
Trash Container (Dempster) Areas
Drainage from trash container areas will be drained to Stormceptor
structures.
Trash container areas associated with Hotel restaurant operations will be
screened, walled, and secured to prevent offsite transport of trash.
019659ASIMrr 10
• Self -Contained Areas for Washing/Steam Cleaning/Maintenance/Repair
Self-contained areas will be provided for washing/steam cleaning and
performing maintenance activities to Hotel service vehicles and landscape
maintenance equipment. These areas shall be provided with drains to
convey wash water to Stormceptor structures. If this washing and
maintenance activity is performed at the existing boat wash rack facility,
the requirement of this BMP will be met.
• Outdoor Storage
Where the Hotel development plan contemplates outdoor containers for
oils, fuels, solvents, coolants, wastes, and other chemicals, these will'be
protected by secondary containment structures (not double wall
containers). These storage areas shall be provided with drains to deliver
any storm runoff or spills to the Stormceptor structures.
• Catch Basin Stenciling
The phrase `NO'DUMPING — DRAINS TO BAY" or equally effective
phrase shall be stenciled on catch basins in the parking lots and
maintenance areas to alert the public and employees to the destination of
Apollutants
discharged into the storm drain system.
B. Non -Structural BMPs
The non-structural BMPs to be implemented within the development area are
' listed below.
• Activity Restrictions
No car washing, changing of oil, or other auto repairs will be permitted
within the 30-acre project site. Hotel service vehicles and equipment used
for maintenance shall be washed and maintained at the boat wash rack
area outside the project area.
• Landscape Management
Landscaped areas that utilize fertilizers and pesticides will be managed, in
concert with guidelines provided in the Orange County Drainage Area
Management Plan (DAMP) (Reference 10). The -guidelines for the use
and management of fertilizers and pesticides is repeated here for ease of
reference.
11
IN9-51AS104M it
Use of Fertilizers
Fertilizers are nutrients applied to soil to provide a better growing
environment for plants. The fertilizers most commonly in use in Southern
California today are nitrogen- and phosphorus -based. Both leach into
soils easily in the presence of water and have become a water quality
concern, causing algal blooms and eutrophication and, in some cases,
causing levels to exceed federal drinking water standards.
However, fertilizers also play the important role of promoting vegetation
growth that protects soil from erosion and enhances landscape -aesthetics.
Because there is a necessity for soil nutrients and because there is a
potential for adverse Affects on local waterways due to the loss of these
nutrients through runoff and infiltration, management guidelines are
necessary as a means of reducing the loss of fertilizers into water supplies.
The guidelines for the use of fertilizers are as follows:
1. Landscape management staff should periodically test soils before
applying fertilizers to be certain that application is appropriate for
and compatible with soil conditions. The samples should be
analyzed by a qualified specialist, and workers should follow the
recommendations for application.
2. Landscape management staff should choose to use organic
fertilizers such as compost, peat, and mulch wherever possible to
increase soil porosity and water retention.
3. Landscape workers should apply only the minimum amount of
fertilizer needed and incorporate it directly into the soil around the
plant where possible to mn ni nmi potential surface runoff.
4. Landscape workers should not apply fertilizers in the rain or on the
same day that rain is expected.
S. Landscape workers should immediately clean up any spill of
fertilizers.
6. Storage facilities should be covered and have impermeable
foundations so that potential spills don't have the opportunity to
run off into surface water or leach into groundwater systems.
7. Fertilizers that may be carried by the wind should be stored in
areas away from open loading spaces and entrances of storage
warehouses.
ams AMmyr 12
11
8. Fertilizers should be securely covered in the vehicle before being
taken to application sites so that none can spill or fly out during
transport.
9. Use slow release fertilizers such as water soluble nitrogen
fertilizers, coated fertilizers, and fertilizers of limited solubility
wherever possible to reduce the chances of leaching. .
Use of Pesticides
Pesticides are designed to kill or restrict the growth of plants and
organisms, and thus, are potentially dangerous chemicals. Increasing
scientific concern for their safe use and heightened public awareness of
health concerns has lead to more and more regulations in the United States
at both the state and federal level. Pesticide use by landscape maintenance
staff presents the potential risk that the chemicals may be washed into the
storm drainage system. Stormwater interceptors are designed as structural
BMPs to trap suspended solids, oils, greases, and other floatable debris
prior to discharge to the Bay. It is possible; however, that some storm
water constituents such as nitrogen, phosphorous, and other soluable
chemicals which may not have adhered to sediments, may pass through
the structures. Consequently, careful management and use of pesticides is
essential.
The guidelines for the use of pesticides are as follows:
1. Landscape management staff should maintain a complete list of all
Nchemicals
and their uses.
2. Landscape management staff should thoroughly investigate and
consider all alternatives to pesticide use.
3. Landscape workers shall use pesticides only according to label
instructions.
4. Landscape crews should bring to the work site only the amount of
chemical to be used during the application and use only the
minimum amount of the chemical that is necessary.
5. Landscape workers should consider weather conditions that could
affect application (for example, they shouldn't spray when winds
are exceeding 5 mph, when raining or when rain is likely).
I
I099.5&AS104R r 13
I
I
6. Landscape workers should consider area drainage patterns (for
example, they shouldn't apply near wetlands, streams and lakes or
ponds unless it is for an approved maintenance activity).
7. Landscape workers should consider soil conditions before applying
pesticides (for example, they shouldn't apply to bare or eroded
ground).
8. Landscape workers shall triple -rinse empty pesticide containers
before disposal and use the leftover wash as spray.
9. Landscape workers should never clean or rinse pesticide
equipment and containers in the vicinity of storm drains.
10. Pesticides should -only be stored in areas with cement floors and in
areas insulated from temperature extremes.
11. Landscape workers shall secure chemicals and equipment during
transportation to prevent tipping or excess jarring in a part of the
vehicle completely isolated from people, food, and clothing.
12. Landscape workers or their supervisors should inspect pesticide
equipment, storage containers, and transportation vehicles daily.
13. Landscape management staff should adopt a plan for dealing with
potential accidents before they happen.
14. Landscape workers should immediately clean up any chemical
spill according to label instructions and notify the appropriate
supervisors and agencies.
Additional detailed information concerning the use and management of
fertilizers and pesticides is included in the County DAMP (Reference 10).
BMP Maintenance
The management of the Newport Dunes Hotel and Time -Share Resort will
assume responsibility for implementation of each non-structural BMP and
for scheduling the cleaning of all structural BMP facilities. Refer to
Section V.A. of this report regarding maintenance of stormwater
interceptor structures. Refer to Catch Basin Inspection and Maintenance
included in this section for catch basin inspection and maintenance .
requirements.
O"ASI0W°' 14
I
• Litter Control
1
Regular maintenance consisting of litter control and emptying of trash
receptacles will be scheduled. Any trash disposal violations will be noted
in order to reduce pollution of drainage water.
• Employee Training
Employee training, like equipment maintenance, is not so much a best
management practice as it is a method by which to implement BMPs. The
overall objectives and approach for assuring employee training in storm
water pollution prevention are listed below.
Obiectives
Employee training should be based on four objectives:
1. Promote a clear identification and understanding of the problem,
including activities with the potential to pollute storm water.
2. Identify solutions (BMPs).
3. Promote employee ownership of the problems and the solutions.
4. Integrate employee feedback into training and BMP
implementation.
Approach
1. Integrate training regarding storm water quality management with
existing training programs that may be required for hotel
operations by regulations such as: the Illness and Injury Prevention
Program (IIPP) (SB 198) (California Code of Regulations Title 8,
Section 3203), the Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency
Response (HAZWOPER) standard (29 CFR 1910.120), the Spill
Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan (40 CFR
112), and the Hazardous Materials Management Plan (Business
Plan) (California Health and Safety Code, Section 6.95).
2. Hotel management may use the information in Reference 11 to
develop a training program to reduce the potential to pollute storm
water.
I

I01MIAS104xrr 15
Catch Basin Inspection and Cleaning
Catch basins and storm water inlets will be maintained on a regular basis ■
to remove pollutants, reduce high pollutant concentrations during the first
flush storms, prevent clogging of the downstream conveyance system, and
restore the catch basins' sediment trapping capacity.
Regular maintenance of catch basins and inlets is necessary to ensure their
proper functioning. Clogged catch basins are not only useless but may act
as a source of sediments and pollutants. In general, the keys to effective
catch basins are:
1. At least annual inspections. Maintenance staff should inspect the
basins to ensure compliance with the following:
Immediate repair of any deterioration threatening structural
integrity.
Cleaning before the basin sump is 50 percent full. Catch
basins should be cleaned as frequently as needed to meet
this standard.
2. Clean catch basins in high pollutant load areas just before the.wet
season (prior to October 15a') to remove sediments and debris
accumulated during the summer.
3. Keep accurate logs of the number of catch basins cleaned.
4. Record the amount of waste -collected.
Sweeping of Streets, Parking Lots, and Parking Structures I
Roadways and parking lots will be cleaned on a regular basis to reduce the
discharge of pollutants into the storm drain system from paved surfaces.
Onsite roadways and parking lots should be swept prior to the storm ,
season, no later than October 15a' of each year. Parking structure levels
below the top level should be swept periodically on a frequency to be
determined by the Resort Management.
VI. INSPECTIONWAINTENANCE RESPONSIBILITY FOR BMPs
The Newport Dunes Hotel and Time -Share Resort management team will be responsible
for the inspection, implementation, and maintenance of the structural and non-structural
BMPs outlined in this plan. The management team will retain all maintenance records
for a period of three years. Those records will be available for review by government
awl AS104Wr 16 1
I
Ij
agencies. An annual monitoring report documenting the volume of accumulated
1 sediments, floatable debris, and other pollutants captured by catch basins and the storm
water interceptor structures will be prepared following the annual cleaning activity. This
report will be provided to the City of Newport Beach, Building Division; and the County
of Orange, Environmental Resources Division.

BIOLOGICAL SURVEY REPORT
AND IMPACT ASSESSMENT FOR
PROPOSED NEWPORT DUNES RESORT,
NEWPORT BAY, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
December 17, 1998
SUMMARY I
The biological survey of the proposed project site indicated areas of disturbed habitat and
well -maintained landscape plantings, as well as existing development. The site supports no
native habitats, per se, but provides habitats for a limited variety of native and nonnative wildlife
using the coastal park -like setting. Wildlife agency staff have expressed concern that plantings
in the proposed project site could encourage avian predator use in the adjacent Upper Newport
Bay Ecological Reserve and Regional Park (a natural reserve). Additionally wildlife agencies
have expressed concern that some cultivated plants might escape into the Reserve's native
habitats. Other potentially adverse biological effects of the project are discussed. It is
anticipated that none of these effects would reach a significant level if the recommended
mitigation measures are made conditions of project approval and implemented. I
INTRODUCTION I
Project Description
The proposed project is a planned community development plan for Newport Dunes Resort.
The project includes the construction of a full -service destination resort hotel. The hotel will
provide 400 guestrooms and 100 timeshare units. The 100 timeshare units will be designed with the
capability to be split or "locked off' for a maximum of 600 rentable rooms. Approximately 20
percent of the guestrooms will be suites. Hotel amenities will include health, fitness, and recreation
facilities; children's facilities; dining facilities; ballrooms and meeting rooms; retail space; a parking
structure and surface parking areas; and landscaped garden areas.
The hotel's inferior facilities are expected to be contained within a total of approximately
700,000 square feet. An entry court located ofthe Bayside Drive entry will lead to the central lobby
and courtyard of the hotel. The lobby and interior courtyard will overlook the swimming beach and
lagoon. Hotel guestrooms will be located in separate building wings that surround three separate
garden courtyards. These separate building wings are attached to the central north -south "spine" of
the hotel. The building configuration is intended to maximize the views of the bay and the
landscaped courtyard from the guest rooms. The hotel would contain five distinct levels. The
maximum height limit for 75 percent of the building footprint would be 50 feet and the remaining
25 percent of the building footprint could be built to a maximum height of 75 feet. Building heights
would be measured from a maximum pad elevation of 12 feet above mean sea level. ,
Two swimming pools will be provided with different designs to accommodate both adult
and family use. Lighting and water features will be incorporated into the design of the swimming
pools. The hotel will also contain a health club featuring a workout/weight room and locker facility.
12/17/98 Pacific Southwest Biological Services, Inc.
PSBS #T414 3
A small sports -oriented retail outlet and juice bar will be provided. A game room/arcade will be
included in the hotel's recreational facilities.
iDining areas will be provided on the main (third) level of the hotel. The more formal Dining
Room and private dining areas will overlook the pool area and landscaped courtyards will seat
I approximately 75 to 100 persons. The informal restaurant will offer meals throughout the day and
on weekends. The lobby lounge and bar will include areas for dancing and outdoor terrace seating
and dining.
' The hotel would provide a total of 54,000 square feet of public areas, of which 41,000
square feet consist of function areas, including conference rooms, meeting room, and banquet
facilities and 13,000 square feet consist of pre -function assembly and circulation areas. Most public
areas would be provided on the first level. These public areas would include two 12,000 square foot
ballrooms, which can be divided into several smaller spaces and an additional 9,000 square feet of
pre -function areas. There will also be two smaller junior ballroom/meeting rooms of 5,000 square
feet each and pre -function areas totaling 4,000 square feet. All these ballroom/meeting rooms will
be accessible to and served by a central banquet kitchen. The third level would provide a 3,000
' square foot banquet room and a total of five meeting rooms of 800 square feet each.
The public areas are oriented primarily for use by in-house groups (i.e., individuals and
groups staying at the hotel). Local events (use by non -hotel guests) are estimated to utilize the
public areas no more than 25 percent of the time.
' A 3,400 square foot gift shop/retail space will be located in or adjacent to the main lobby
area. A 1,500 square foot business center will be located on the third level. The landscaping of the
hotel and courtyard gardens will include water features, walkways and plantings that relate to the
surrounding bay and marina facilities.
Location
The project is located at the northern terminus of Bayside Drive, north of Pacific Coast
Highway and west of Jamboree Road at the southern end of Newport Bay, in the City of Newport
Beach, Orange County, California. The project site is south and adjacent to the combined Upper
Newport Bay Regional Park and Ecological Reserve [Reserve].
General Physiography/Site Conditions
The project site is part of the larger Newport Dunes Resort, which occupies approximately
100 acres. The balance of the site is currently developed with a 10-acre swimming beach and
lagoon, a mile -long pedestrian promenade around the swimming lagoon, day use facilities, with
parking and beach restrooms, a restaurant, a 450 slip marina, a 400+ space recreational vehicle park,
swimming pools, meeting space, and boat storage and launch facilities. The surrounding areas are
generally developed with residential, recreational or commercial uses on the west, south and east
sides. Waterfront housing exists directly to the northwest, while undeveloped bay wetlands and
shore lands are to the northeast.
The public spaces in the existing resort are landscaped with a variety of mature landscape
plants, including turf, shrubs, and trees, including a variety of palm trees. The site is generally flat
or landscaped with low mounds of earth. The area south of the existing temporary boat dry storage

yard contains a surcharge or pile of bay -fill material, apparently excavated from the adjacent
swimming lagoon. This surcharge area contains a depression which contained ponded water in
October 1998.
METHODS
Review of Existing Documents
The site was initially visited by Principal Botanist R. Mitchel Beauchamp on 3 September
1998, to perform an initial site reconnaissance and survey the flora on the site. On 21 October 1998,
Senior Biologist Michael Evans visited the site to perform a faunal survey and ascertain the relation
of the site to the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve. Mr. Evans discussed wildlife issues on
several occasions with Mr. Tim Dillingham, California Department of Fish and Game manager of
the Reserve.
The botanical survey consisted of walking throughout the complex and recording the non -
cultivated plants encountered. The zoological survey, conducted while performing a general
biological reconnaissance of the site, consisted of walking the site and recording the fauna observed.
Limitations and Definitions
Because of the developed nature of the site, the faunal survey resulted in a list of those birds
observed only on the day of the survey. The birds observed were typical of the habitats encountered
on the site during the late summer in Southern California. If more extensive, year -around floral and
faunal surveys were performed, additional species would have been recorded. However, given the
landscaped and other nonnative habitats present on the site, it is not expected that any unusual, rare,
threatened or endangered species would be recorded on the proposed project site.
RESULTS
BOTANICAL RESOURCES
The site of the proposed expansion of the Newport Dunes Resort is completely disturbed as
a result of prior development, cultivation of exotic landscaping plant materials and past dredging
activities in the adjacent lagoon. The substrate of the site is beach sand which has been leached
sufficiently so as to support various exotic and some native species which are adapted to the
disturbed, haline conditions of the site. Prior pre -European conditions of the site most probably
supported Strand and Coastal Salt Marsh vegetation; however, these habitats now only occur in
undisturbed and isolated portions around Newport Bay and especially the Reserve.
Flora
The observed flora of the site (Appendix I) involves 31 plant taxa, of which only six (19%)
are native. These natives are adapted to the disturbed conditions of the site and are not
representative of any specific plant community or native floristic association as a group. The
presence of the Beach Evening -Primrose (Cammissonia cheiranth fora) is indicative of the Coastal
Strand and sandy substrate of the site, while the Wild Heliotrope (Heliotropium curassavicum)
demonstrates the salty condition of the site.
12/17/98 Pacific Southwest Biological Services, Inc.
PSBS #T414 5
1 Sensitive Plant Taxa
Several sensitive plants are known from coastal habitats of the region. The lack of such
undisturbed habitats on the site precludes the presence of these taxa. None were observed nor
expected on the site. These plants include the following:
Abronia maritima Occasional on Coastal Strands which do not
have high levels of pedestrian traffic
Aphanisma blitoides To be expected on undisturbed coastal bluffs in
the region
Atriplex serenana var. davidsonii An annual in undisturbed Coastal Scrub
Calandrinia maritima Known from upland coastal bluffs
Cordylanthus maritimus ssp. maritimus Known from a population across the lagoon at
the entrance to the California Department of
Fish and Game facility.
Euphorbia misera Known from coastal bluffs in southern Orange
County
Remizonia parryi ssp. australis Known from alkaline wetlands of generally
inland sites
Isocoma men:iesii var. decumbens Known from Coastal Scrub sites
Lasthenia glabrata ssp. coulteri Known from Coastal Salt Marsh habitats
' Nemacaulis denudata var. denudata Occasional on Coastal Strands which do not
have high levels of pedestrian traffic
' Suaeda esteroa Occasional in Coastal Salt Marsh
Suaeda taxifolia Occasional in Coastal Salt Marsh
FAUNAL RESOURCES
The single day survey of fauna on the site recorded 29 species of birds, with 19 families
represented; two of the 29 species are non-native. The survey revealed no amphibians, reptiles or
mammals. The site probably supports a low diversity of reptiles (and probably no amphibians)
because of the non-native habitats on site. However, it is likely that a more in-depth, year-round
' survey may reveal the following reptiles using the site: Southern California Side -Blotched Lizard
(Uta stansburiana hesperis), Western Fence Lizard (Sceloporus occidentalis biseriatus) and
Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata). These reptiles would be likely to use disturbed marginal
' areas of the site and probably would originate in the adjacent Upper Newport Bay Reserve area.
Mammals typical of urban and suburban parkland areas expected to occur on the site include the
following: Virginia Opossum (Didelphis virginiana), occasional bat species, Desert Cottontail
(Sylvilagus audubonii), California Ground Squirrel (Spermcphilus beecheyi), Botta's Pocket Gopher
(Thomomys bottae), Norwegian Rat (Rattus norvegicus),-Black Rat (Rattus rattus), House Mouse
(Mus musculus), and Stripped Skunk (Mephitis mephitis).
' Because the habitats on the project site consist primarily of landscaped, paved, and disturbed
areas, no sensitive, rare, threatened or endangered animal species are expected to use the site.

PSBS #T414 6 1
RESOURCES/HABITAT EVALUATION r
The project site contains man-made habitats of limited use to native wildlife: landscaped and
built-up areas of the project site support only the limited variety fauna typical of coastal Southern
California semi -urbanized areas. The man-made, beach -lined swimming lagoon connected to
Newport Bay provides limited habitat for the ten waterbird species observed during the survey. The
use of this area by water birds probably depends on the amount and kinds of activities by humans
using the area. During periods of low human use, primarily on weekdays during the fall and winter
months, the area can be used by a variety of roosting gulls, American Coots, grebes, cormorants,
and a limited number of shorebirds. These birds primarily use the shoreline, floats, and open water
areas for resting. Turf and landscaped areas are used by resident songbirds, pigeons and doves for
nesting and foraging. During the fall and spring months, these same habitats are also used by
migratory songbirds for cover and foraging during migration.
Regional/Subregional Context
The project site lies at the southern end of Upper Newport Bay, which is separated from
Newport Bay proper by the Pacific Coast Highway. The shoreline, man-made islands, and southern '
peninsula of Newport Bay are fully developed for aquatic, marina, residential, and commercial uses.
The Newport Dunes Resort, adjacent marina, and residential uses north across the lower bay
channel are the primary water front land uses on Upper Newport Bay. Residential and commercial
land uses generally surround the rest of the bay, typically well above the water surface on adjacent
slopes around the bay. The land uses around Upper Newport Bay were largely established within
the past 20-30 years and often contain a variety of mature landscaping plants associated with these '
land uses.
Upper Newport Bay is one of the larger of the coastal estuaries still surviving along the
coasts of Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego Counties. Most ofthese estuaries and lagoons
presently exist in a matrix of intense, human -oriented upland land uses. The historical loss of
extensive natural shoreline and associated riverine habitats has created an extremely valuable but
narrow range of habitats associated with the remaining estuaries. The reduction of these associated
habitats has reduced and isolated the wetlands habitats available for wildlife use. There has also
been a parallel reduction in shoreline and beach -front habitats available to native wildlife because of
the development of these areas for commercial, residential and beach -oriented recreational uses.
Wildlife species using these reduced habitats have generally had their populations reduced or '
extirpated from their previous geographic range.
The following description of Upper Newport Bay is taken from the internet web site of
Orange County Department of Parks and Recreation (scientific names added):
"Upper Newport Bay Regional Park and Ecological Reserve represent approximately 1,000
acres of open space. Upper Newport Bay Regional Park surrounds the Ecological Reserve.
The park will house the future Interpretive Center for Upper Newport Bay. Upper Newport
Bay Regional Park totals approximately 140 acres. The regional park is made up of the
bluffs surrounding the Bay. Three sensitive species use the bluffs: The California
Gnatcatcher, San Diego Cactus Wren, and Burrowing Owl. Two important plant
communities are found on the bluffs -grasslands and coastal sage scrub. Upper Newport
Ecological Reserve totals 752 acres. This coastal wetland, one of the largest in southern
12/17/98 Pacific Southwest Biological Services, Inc. I
PSBS #T414 7
' California, is renowned as one of the finest bird watching sites in North America. During
winter migration up to 35,000 birds may be using the Bay at one time. It is home to six rare
or endangered species: Light-footed Clapper Rail [Rallus longirostris levipes], California
Brown Pelican [Pelecanus occidentalis californicus], Belding's Savannah Sparrow
[Passerculus sandwichensis beldingi], Black Rail [Laterallus jamaicensis coturniculus],
American Peregrine Falcon [Falco peregrinus anatum] and California Least Tern [Sterna
antillarum browni]. The Bay is home to one endangered plant species -Salt Marsh Bird's -
Beak (Cordylanthus maritimus ssp. maritimus). Considered a "critical estuary" habitat -
Upper Newport Bay is one of the most pristine remaining estuaries in Southern California."
Although the Reserve contains some heavily modified habitats, the majority of the habitats
there are in relatively natural conditions, supporting a variety of native habitats, plants and animals.
POTENTIAL BIOLOGICAL IMPACTS
tThreshold for Significance
Appendix G of CEQA states that a project may have a significant effect on the environment
if it would:
• substantially affect a rare or endangered species of animal or plant or the habitat of the
species;
' • interfere substantially with the movement of any resident or migratory fish or wildlife
species; and
• substantially diminish habitat for fish, wildlife, or plants.
In addition, CEQA (Section 15065(a)) further states that a project may have a significant
effect when the project:
• has the potential to degrade the quality of the environment;
• may 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; and
' • may reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal.
To address these criteria within the context of the project, recall that the project area is
generally already developed as a recreational park and does not contain native habitats.
Additionally, the wildlife observed on the site is common in parkland habitats in Southern
California and are not -considered sensitive by wildlife agencies. However, the project is adjacent to
the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve and Regional Park. As stated above, this reserve does
support a number of wetland -dependent sensitive, Threatened and Endangered species. Thus an
additional criteria or threshold for significance would be: Would the project have the potential to
substantially disrupt the habitats or critical life history activities of sensitive. Threatened or
Endangered species within the Ecological Reserve?
Affirmative answers to any of the questions above may be considered sufficient cause to
determine that the project would result in significant impacts, therefore requiring mitigation.

Summary of Project Effects
r
Implementation of the project will involve preparation of the site, construction of the new
resort and associated buildings (see project description) and other facilities and installation of
landscape hardscape and plantings. The new construction will replace the existing boat storage area
and some recreational vehicle parking areas, and remove the earth storage (surcharge) area. Besides
the direct effects associated with the construction activities, there will be an increase noise during
the construction phase. Construction activities will likely increase the pattern and intensity of noise
compared to that associated with the project site prior to the implementation of the project. If night -
construction is necessary, there may be an increase in artificial lighting associated with the project
site. At present, the project plans include a conceptual landscape plan and draft landscape palette of
plants to be installed on the project site.
After construction is finished, the daily operation of the project will result in a change in the
intensity and use patterns of visitors to the site. These changes include a reduction in activities
within the existing boat storage area; a reduction of activities associated with the recreational
vehicle uses in the western portion of the site; cessation of pumping to the sedimentation basin; a
shift in pedestrian activities to the north courtyard areas of the new resort/time-share facility. There
will likely be an increase in pedestrian activities associated with the new East and West Timeshare
'
units south of the existing marina. These potential effects and recommenced conditions are
discussed in greater detail below.
'
CONSTRUCTION RELATED EFFECTs
Traffic, noise, dust and runoff/sedimentation effects
There will likely be a change in the kind (and potentially increased frequency) of traffic,
noise, dust and runoff/sedimentation during construction. Where project construction involves
activities adjacent to water areas, waterbirds using aquatic or shoreline habitats may be temporarily
forced to use less disturbed areas in the project vicinity, including the Ecological Reserve. Since the
present use by waterbirds (or other sensitive, Threatened, or Endangered species) on the project site
appears minimal or non-existent, this potential effect is considered less than significant, particularly
if the mitigation measure recommenced below is made a condition of approval and implemented.
Thus, none of the thresholds or criteria listed above would be met for a significant environmental
effect on biological resources.
Recommended Mitigation Measure: Standard construction controls for traffic, noise, dust
,
and runoff/sedimentation be applied to the project to reduce the likelihood of effects on area
wildlife.
Displacement/Replacement of Existing Wildlife Habitats
Existing man-made habitats on the project site, such as landscaped areas and paved or
unpaved parking areas, and the surcharge area will be unavailable to wildlife species during the
construction period. Thus the project may temporarily displace common birds associated with these
habitats, including American Kestrels, Rock Doves, Mourning Doves, European Starlings,
blackbirds, House Sparrows, House Finches, as well as some migratory songbirds. Based on the
areal extent and variety of proposed final landscape plan, the finished project will probably result in
increased wildlife use of the site. Thus, none of the thresholds or criteria listed above would be met
'
for a significant environmental effect on biological resources. These impacts are associated with any
12/17/98 Pacific Southwest Biological Services, Inc.
' PSBS 9T414 9
' construction activity in such habitats and are considered less than significant. No additional
conditions are recommended.
OPERATIONAL EFFECTS
Noise and Lighting
The long term use and operation of the finished project will result in an increase in noise and
lighting throughout the project site, particularly near the hotel and time-share units in the northern
' and central parts of the site. This increase in noise is not expected to be significant because the
northern portion of the site is already occupied by the marina, where considerable activity already
takes place. At present, there are no sensitive, Threatened or Endangered species, or identified
critical life -history activities of plants or wildlife which would be impacted. Increased lighting at
the site will primarily occur in the northern interior and eastern courtyard areas of the site. Thus,
none of the thresholds or criteria listed above would be met for a significant environmental effect on
biological resources. If the general mitigation measure outline below is made a condition of the
project approval, there should not be increased lighting which would substantially effect adjacent
habitats in the Reserve.
Recommended Mitigation Measure: The site plan, final landscape plan, and/or use permit
for the project should include prohibition of wide -focus lights aimed above the horizon and lighting
limited to that necessary for public safety within the project.
' Potential Increase in Uncontrolled Trash/Refuse Attracting Unwanted Wildlife
Potential increases in human uses and the increase in trash on the project site, unless well
controlled, could attract unwanted wildlife species to the site. Such wildlife species could include
additional gulls, rodents and other small mammals (i.e., skunks and opossums). Some of these
species could adversely effect wildlife species using the adjacent Reserve if the project activities
enhance conditions for them. Current facilities and operations in the existing resort appear to
' sufficiently reduce the potential for these effects to occur. Existing refuse management operations
should continue with the proposed project. Because none of the thresholds or criteria listed above
' are met, this effect is not considered significant. However, the recommended mitigation measure is
made a condition of approval of the project.
Recommended Mitigation Measure: The proposed project should incorporate existing
refuse control and collection methods which limit wildlife access by using trash containers which
cannot be easily overturned (or easily accessed) by gulls and rodents and prompt control of refuse
' generated by visitors using the facilities on the site.
Plant invasion to the Ecological Reserve Area
There is a potential that seeds and other nonnative plant propagules from the project site may
reach the adjacent Reserve via flotation or wind and become established. If these species were to
become established, they would increase maintenance requirements and costs necessary to remove
them in the Reserve.
A review of the draft plant palette listed on the Landscape Concept Plan (and included here
as Appendix 3), indicates that only one of the species proposed are known to be invasive in the
habitats of the Reserve. Carpobrotus, the genus of the common coastal "iceplant", grows well in
12/17/98 Pacific Southwest Biological Services, Inc.
PSBS AT414 10
sandy, slightly salty soil. This species is known to be fairly invasive and is difficult to remove from
natural areas. It likely already occurs in the adjacent Reserve lands but should not be intentionally
used as a landscape species within the project area. This species should not be used in future
landscaping for the project site. Without mitigation, this effect has the potential to be incrementally
significant because iceplant could invade the adjacent Reserve and effect sensitive or listed species
inhabiting coastal strand habitats (see final significance criteria, above). If the Mitigation measure
recommended below is made a condition of approval, the implementation of the project should not
result in significant effects from plant invasion to the Reserve.
The original vegetation on the proposed project site, prior to the existing elevations on the
site, probably consisted of Coastal Strand and Salt Marsh vegetation. These same vegetation types
still occur in the nearby Reserve. Coastal Sage Scrub vegetation occurs in some of the upland areas
surrounding Upper NewportBay. The draft plant palette on the Landscape Concept Plan contains
the following note.
"The introduction of plant species native to the coastal sage plant community and
indigenous to the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve environs shall be incorporated
along the outside edge of the resort, especially along the edges that face the reserve and
lagoon areas."
While it is always recommended that locally indigenous plant species be used to the
maximum extent possible for the purposes of water conservation, sandy and saline soil conditions
on the site will probably not support many Coastal Sage Scrub plant species except for
Lemonadeberry (Rhus integrifolia). Because the project site does not currently contain native
habitats, it would not reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species (see significance threshold,
above), these impacts would not be significant. Adherence to the recommended mitigation measure
stated below should insure that the there will be no significant effects from the use of non-native
plants on the project site.
Recommended Mitigation Measure: The final landscape plant pallet should be reviewed
by a knowledgeable biologist to insure that it does not contain any potentially invasive plants which
could become established in the adjacent Reserve. The plan should particularly not include
Carpobrotus ("iceplant"). To the maximum extent practicable, locally native plant species should
be used in the in areas adjacent to the Reserve.
Potential for the Project Landscaping to Support Avian Predators in the Ecological Reserve
Because the resort hotel site is located adjacent to the Upper Newport Bay Ecological
Reserve, wildlife agency staff have expressed concern that landscaping installed within the project
could provide perching or nesting sites for avian predators which could prey on sensitive wildlife in
the Reserve. Of specific concern are the Threatened and Endangered avian species, including Black
Rails (presently extirpated), Light-footed Clapper Rails, Western Snowy Plovers, California Least
Terns and Belding's Savannah Sparrows. Of these species, the primary concern are bare -ground
nesting species such as the California Least Tern and Snowy Plover. Although these species
presently do not nest in close proximity to the project site, wildlife agency staff have indicated that
they intend to enhance the nearby Shell Maker Island to encourage these species to nest there. At
various southern California Least Tern nesting sites, there are numerous instances where colonies
12/17/98 Pacific Southwest Biological Services, Inc.
PSBS #T414 11
' have been decimated by owls, hawks, falcons or ravens, often using nearby trees as perches or
nesting sites.
' The existing resort already contains a large number of well maintained, mature palm trees in
the landscaping near the marina buildings and south of the boat launch facility. The project
applicant has indicated that palms are an integral element of the proposed landscape plan and that it
is in the project's best interest to provide the best landscape maintenance feasible.
' Staff from the Department of Fish and Game have specifically addressed the potential for
palm trees on the project site to serve as potential predator roosts. In an effort to address this issue,
an assessment is made below of various palm species which are available in the commercial market
and which would fit the landscaping ambiance of the resort hotel. These palms are assessed relative
to their mature height (i.e., the potential to provide line -of -sight perches for potential predators) and
the ability to accumulate thatch (i.e., accumulated dead leaves associated with the palm crown),
which could provide nesting sites for predatory birds. The Landscape Concept Plan and draft plant
palette in the project plans indicate that palms are to be used for project landscaping.
u

The list of palm trees included below classifies palms into tall and short species with low or
high thatch maintenance requirements (i.e., no thatch accumulation of tight petiole adpression [leave
stems held closely]) on the tree trunk. Short stature, low maintenance thatch taxa are unlikely to
support avian predators which would be likely to prey on bird species in the adjacent Reserve lands.
Tall stature, low maintenance thatch species of palms should not normally be able to provide
perching or nest sites for predatory birds. However, there is the potential for palms which naturally
accumulate thatch to provide nesting sites for Common Bam Owls, American kestrels, and
Common Ravens. These predators are known to create problems at other California Least Tern
nesting sites in southern California.
Of particular concern are species of the genera Phoenix and Washingtonia. The genus
Phoenix includes the date palms and are commonly used as fruiting and landscape species in
southern California. However, even well manicured specimens may provide roosting or nesting
sites for species such as American Kestrels because of the interstices created by the cut-off leaf
stems. It is recommended that palms of this genus not be used in landscaping for the project unless
trunks are skinned to remove such potential nesting platforms. The genus Washingtonia (California
and Mexican Fan Palms), already used on the project site, tend to create potential avian perching or
nesting sites unless the dead leaf stems are quickly and completely removed. This species is still a
viable candidate for use at the site as long regular maintenance is assured through ongoing
conditions in the permit. If trees with a high potential to support avian predators, or if trees and
structures are not properly maintained, the project has the potential to may reduce the number or
restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal (see significance threshold, above), and
thus result in a significant environmental effect.
If the recommended mitigation measure is applied, the use of the palm species listed below
(except for the genus Phoenix) is not considered to create a significant effect on biological'resources
within the site or the adjacent Ecological Reserve.

Recommended Mitigation Measure(s):
(A) The palm species listed above may be used for landscaping within the project site,
except for palms of the genus Phoenix, which are not recommended for use because of their
propensity to provide avian roosting and nesting areas, even when well maintained.. The use permit
for the project should include a requirement to regularly maintain and remove any buildup of palm
thatch or dead leaves. If the palms of the genus Phoenix are permitted, specific maintenance
requirements should be made conditions of project approval that insure prompt removal of potential
perching or nesting site for any predatory birds.
(B) To preclude landing or roosting on the hotel structures, the owl or raptor decoys (or
12/17/98 Pacific Southwest Biological Services, Inc.
PSBS #T414 13
other structures) should be placed in strategic locations on buildings to discourage perching by
hawks or gulls. This measure will also reduce the potential roosting by pigeons or starlings which
otherwise foul buildings and pavement areas.
(C) If potential avian predators use trees planted in the proposed project boundaries, these
predators cannot be removed without appropriate state and/or federal government wildlife permits.
An optional mitigation measure to be considered is that an endowment fund be established to pay
' for "as needed" predator control problems in the adjacent Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve,
arising from predators resulting from operation of the project. The project proponent should only be
required to pay a reasonable "fair share" proportion of the funds necessary to mitigate identified
' project -induced predator problems.

MANAGEMENT SUMMARY '
PURPOSE: Douglas Woods & Associates contracted with RMW Paleo Associates, Inc. to
complete a cultural resources study designed to assess the effects of the Newport Dunes Hotel '
project on any important or potentially important cultural resources located within the project
boundaries.
DATES OF INVESTIGATION: A literature review was conducted on 21 April 1998. The
review revealed that the area had been included in one previous study. The prior study revealed
no cultural resources were present. A field examination of the property was accomplished on 28 '
April 1998. No sites were observed in the field examination.
CONSTRAINTS: Portions of the study area are under pavement and could not be examined.
Based on the information available at the time of this report, the potential for any cultural
resources under the pavement is extremely low. '
FINDINGS: A 1935 USGS 7.5' map of the area shows the entire project area as a marsh. The
area appears to have been built up in the late 1950s by using the dredgings from Upper Newport
Bay. Based on this information and the findings of this project, no further cultural resources
study is recommended. If, however, archaeological material is encountered during construction,
an archaeologist should be retained.
A copy of this report will be filed with the Archaeological Information Center, University of
California, Los Angeles and RMW Paleo Associates, Incorporated. Field Notes are on file at
RMW Paleo Associates.

INTRODUCTION
' Douglas Woods & Associates retained RMW Paleo Associates to complete a cultural resources
study designed to assess the impacts of the proposed project on any important or potentially
important cultural resources located within the project boundaries.
The study was undertaken under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) , which requires background research, on -site evaluation, and report preparation to
determine if any cultural resources will be impacted by'the proposed project.
The project area is located in the City of Newport Beach, and is part of the Newport Dunes
Resort. Currently, the project area consists of the Newport Dunes R.V. Park and the Newport
Dunes Marine Center. The main entrance to the R.V. Park is off Jamboree Road. Access to the
Marine center is via Pacific Coast Highway. Maps showing the project area can be found in
Appendix C of this report.
rDevelopment plans call for grading the project area for the construction of the Newport Dunes
Hotel. This will include removing current parking lots and buildings from the R.V. Park and
' Marine Center. A large pile of recent dredgings from Upper Newport Bay will also be removed.
The project was completed under the supervision of Ronald M. Bissell, SOPA Certified Field
Archaeologist. Field work and research was were completed by Timothy A. Goddard. Resumes
for all personnel involved may be found in Appendix A of this report.
SETTING
NATURAL
The surface of the project area consists of sediments including alluvium/colluvium, topsoil,
artificial fill and material dredged from Upper Newport Bay. Old Alluvium/Non Marine
sediments (10,000-70,000 years) overlay marine terraces consisting of the Palos Verde Formation
(70,000-150,000 years). These formations in turn overlay the Capistrano Formation (4-8 million
years).
Vegetation within the project area consists primarily of introduced grasses. However, the Coastal
Sage Scrub Community of plants was probably the dominant plant association within the project
area during the prehistoric era. Remnants of these plants are still growing along the slope of the
bluff. The plants and the small animals that the plants harbored would have been used by the
' prehistoric inhabitants. The primary vegetation of the Coastal Sage Scrub Community is various
species of sage, buckwheat, some flowering plants, and grasses. Seeds were the primary resource
of the plants, but edible stems, stalks, shoots, roots, bulbs, and some berries can also be found.

CULTURAL
Ethnography: The people who occupied the study area prehistorically is unknown. The area had
probably been occupied at various times by one of two Native American groups that are now
known as the Juaneno and Gabrielino (Bean and Smith 1978, Kroeber 1925). The name
"Juaneno" denotes those people who were administered by the Spanish from Mission San Juan
Capistrano. Therefore, the name does not identify a specific ethnic or tribal group. The names
the Native Americans used to identify themselves have, for the most part, been lost.
Contemporary Juaneno identify themselves as the indigenous people known as the Acagchemem
Nation (Belardes 1992). The name Gabrielino denotes the people controlled by the Spanish from
Mission San Gabriel.
The Juaneno and Gabrielino language, as well as that of the Luiseno to the south, was derived
from the Takic family, part of the Uto-Aztecan linguistic stock. By contrast, the Chumash
language, from north of the Gabrielino, is derived from Hokan stock of the Yuman language
family, representing an origin quite different from that of the Juaneno and Gabrielino. The
Chumash share this trait with groups located south of the Luiseno in San Diego County.
The Yuman family of languages is derived from the American southwest while the Takfc family
can be traced to the Great Basin area (Driver 1969). Linguistic analysis has established that the
Hokan speakers of Ventura and San Diego Counties were separated sometime after 500 Before
Common Era (The terms Before Common Era and Common Era denote years from year zero in
the current calendar). The implication is that the entire southern California coastal region was
once filled with Hokan speakers who were gradually separated and displaced by Takic speaking
migrants from the Great Basin area. The timing, extent and impact on local societies with regard
to the migration is not well understood and any data related to it represents an important
contribution to the understanding of local prehistory,
Precontact population estimates are very difficult to make, because many of the Indians did not
come under Spanish control. The Gabrielino may have numbered as many as 5,000 people during
their peak in the precontact period. The Juaneno population during the precontact period is not
known. It is known that approximately 1,300 Juaneno resided at Mission San Juan Capistrano in
the year 1800 (Engelhart 1922). The mission death register shows as many as 4,000 Native
American burials in the mission cemetery.
Father Boscana, a priest at Mission San Juan Capistrano, recorded his observations of the Indians
during the late 1700s and left a most valuable work (Chinigchinich). Kroeber (1925) describes
Boscana's "Chinigchinich" as, "the most intensive and best written account of the customs and
religion of any group of California Indians in the mission days." Kroeber, drawing on Boscana and
other sources, describes the Juaneno as having well developed religious, ritualistic and social
customs.
2
' The center of the Juaneno and Gabrielino religion was Chinigchinich, the last of a series of heroic
mythological figures. The heroes were originally from the stars and the sagas told of them formed
the Juaneno religious beliefs. The most obvious expression of the religion was the Wankech, a
brush enclosed area where religious observances were performed. The Wankech apparently
contained an inner enclosure housing a representation of Chinigchinich, a coyote skin stuffed with
feathers, claws, beaks and arrows.
Both boys and girls were involved in rites of initiation around the age of puberty. The rites for
males included use of datura (a hallucinogen) in the search for a spirit helper. Trials of endurance
may also have been part of the ritual. Females were placed in a branch lined pit containing heated
stones. The girl being initiated fasted in the pit for several days. Females also were introduced to
tattooing during the initiation period.
The Juaneno practiced cremation of the dead. The cremation was managed by specific individuals
who received pay for their services. The death of at least those of higher rank was
commemorated on the first anniversary. The Juaneno had medicine men (shamans), but very little
is known regarding how they acquired their knowledge or their practices.
A very accurate calendar was possessed by the Juaneno. Unfortunately, knowledge of its exact
working has been lost. It is known that it combined both lunar and solar elements in a fashion
similar to certain Southwestern practices.
The Gabrielino also traced their descent through -the male line with status being determined by
both wealth and heredity. Each lineage had a leader (chief), whose authority rested in possession
of a sacred bundle. The chief had several assistants to help with the many duties, including the
collection of taxes (gifts from the people, primarily for consumption by -guests), concluding
treaties and seeing to community welfare. Subject to approval of the people, the position of chief
was hereditary within the male line, though females could serve if no male heir was available.
Shamans were also people of power, whose primary responsibilities were the overseeing of the
various rituals.
The,mainland Gabrielino practiced cremation of the dead, cremation usually occurring about three
days after death. Most possessions of the deceased were also burned, though some were kept to
be burned at the annual mourning ceremony, an eight day event in the fall.
' Archaeological Information: The archaeological heritage of California is quite rich, probably
more so than any other North American region north of Mexico. However, the archeology of
California is not well known. The California Native Americans were generally quite peaceful and
did not often offer warlike resistance to European settlement. Consequently, they did not gain
any great notoriety during the settlement period. Also, the original Californians were first under
the control of the Spanish and Mexican governments and only later, after most of their culture had
been destroyed by disease and displacement, did they come under the control of the United States.
There was only a minor Native American presence remaining in California when it became a
Lei
r
in
United States possession and development began. Consequently, very little interest the natives
and their prehistory was generated. It was many years later before the size, complexity and extent
of archeological deposits in the state became apparent.
The latest chronology to appear that has gained local acceptance in Orange County is that of
Koerper and Drover (1983). The Koerper and Drover chronology is based on extensive work at
CA-ORA 119-A, a large multi -component site near the University of California, Irvine campus.
CA ORA-119-A contained evidence from the Milling Stone to the Late Prehistoric Periods. The
following is a summary of the Koerper and Drover chronology.

Historic Overview: The first Europeans to see what would become Orange County were
members of the 1542 expedition of Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo. Cabrillo sailed along the coast and
did not explore inland. Europeans did not return to the Orange County area until 1769 when
Gaspar de Portola led an overland expedition from San Diego to Monterey (Cramer 1988:19). In
the company of this expedition was Jose Antonio Yorba who later became a landowner with
Pablo Peralta through the Spanish land grant of Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana (McPherson
1988:25).
I .5
I
The first permanent settlement in Orange County came when San Juan Capistrano was selected as
the site for a mission in the spring of 1775. The mission did not become operational until
November 1776. Mission San Gabriel, located in Los Angeles County, was established in 1771.
Newport Bay was called Bolsa de Gengara after an Indian village located on Newport Mesa.
named Genga or Geng Na Many residents from this village were baptized at Mission San Juan
Capistrano in the late 1770s and early 1780s (Lee 1973:4).
The first historic use of NewportBay was in 1810, when Jose Antonio Yorba and Juan Pablo
Peralta received the Newport Mesa and western mainland shoreline of Newport Bay as a result of
the Spanish land grant of Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. Upper Newport Bay and most of the
mainland shore of the lower bay were granted to Jose Andres Sepulvada through the Mexican
land grant of Rancho San Joaquin. This land grant was actually the result of two separate grants:
Rancho Cienega de las Ranas on 13 April 1837 and Bolsa de San Joaquin on 13 May 1842 (Frils
1965, Cleland 1962).
The land surrounding Newport Bay was acquired by partners James Irvine, Benjamin Flint and
Llewellyn Bixby in the 1860s. In 1864, the partners purchased Rancho San Joaquin from
Sepulveda. In 1868, they acquired the portion of Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana bordering
Newport Bay. In 1876 Irvine bought out his partners, becoming the sole owner of the lands
around Newport Bay (Cleland 1962).
The first attempt by the United States Coast Survey to examine Newport Bay was in September
1860 when the U.S. Coast Survey Schooner, Humbolt, anchored off the Newport -Balboa
peninsula (Lee 1973:12). The first merchant vessel to enter Newport Bay was the Vaquero. This
occurred either in 1865 or 1870, the latter being the accepted date. The Captain, S.S. Dunnels,
entered the bay and put in at the beach later to be named Newport Landing. The beach had been
used earlier by Mexican fishermen for manufacturing oil from locally caught sharks (Lee 1973).
Flint, Bixby, Irvine and Company applied for a wharf franchise at the shark fishermen's beach in
1870. On 14 October of the same year, they also filed maps for two proposed town sites in the
area: "Newport" was located in today's Baycrest subdivision. "Wallula," never developed, was
situated on the Castaways Bluff, "just above the location Dunnells had chosen for his landing,"
(Lee 1973:26).
In 1872, a small dock was built on the beach and a warehouse on the bluff. This dock and
warehouse were purchased by James and Robert McFadden in 1873. With the arrival of their
newly purchased steamer "Newport" in 1875, the McFaddens became involved in shipping lumber
to Newport Landing from San Francisco. Many agricultural products produced in the vicinity
were then loaded aboard for the return trip. The warehouse was located on the bluff and a chute
extended from the warehouse to the bay to facilitate the loading of the "Newport". Cargo was
unloaded from wagons on the bluff and sent down the chute directly into the hold of the ship (Lee
1973).

Newport Landing was in operation until the McFaddens moved to their newly constructed ocean
front facility in 1889. Several of the houses and other buildings were floated across the bay to the
new "outside landing' (Lee 1973:44). What became of the facilities at the old landing is
uncertain.
In 1914 the clubhouse of the Orange County Country Club was formally opened on the bluff
directly above the site of Newport Landing (Newport News; 22 August, 1914). It was claimed
that "There is no county club anywhere in the west that will compare with the one on Newport
Bay," (Newport News; 8 August 1914). As grand as the country club was, it was relocated
shortly after it was built, due to the need for a larger golf course (Newport News; November 19,
1956).
After the country club moved, the building was leased for various enterprises. By 1941 a bar and
restaurant in the building was known locally as "Cliff House." It was said that the bar often
remained open after the legal 2 a.m. closing time and that gambling or other illegal activities took
place on the second floor of the establishment (Roemer 1982). The building, last known as the
"Castaways Club," burned to the ground the night of 17 November 1956 (Newport Harbor
News).
Literature Review: A review of the records housed at the South Central Coastal Information
Center at the University of California, Los Angeles was completed by RMW Paleo Associates
Archaeologist Tim Goddard on 21 March 1998. The record search area included the project
location and a one mile radius from the project area.
The project area had been previously surveyed in 1979 and no cultural materials were found
(Westec Services, 1979). There were 27 sites found in the one mile radius surrounding the
project area. Those'sites are listed in Table one. The 24 cultural resource management reports
for areas within the one mile radius are referenced in Appendix B.

METHODS
The project area consists of a five areas: a R.V. park, a boat storage area, a recent dredge pile, a
beach, and a marine center. The current R.V. park consists of dirt spaces and paved roads. The
fenced in boat storage area is situated on top of pavement from an earlier R.V. park. The recent
dredge pile is approximately 340 ft.in width, 400 ft. in length, and 10-15 ft. high. The Beach
extends along the east edge of the property. The marine center consisted of a vacant lot, parking
lot, buildings, and docks. Each of the five areas was surveyed separately by walking north -south
transects at 15 meter intervals. Transects were oriented using a compass, and positioning was
determined using a USGS 7.5' map and a large project area map provided by the client.
FINDINGS
The literature review and surface examination revealed that the entire project area was either
under pavement or had been disturbed. The 1935 USGS map shows the entire area as a marsh.
No record of construction could be found prior to 1958-59, when the original RV park was
constructed. No prehistoric or historic resources were found within the current project
boundaries. Modern resources within the project boundary include: a large, shell -filled, dredge
pile; areas paved in 1959, areas paved in 1991, and the marine center building constructed
1991(Tim Quinn, Park Manager, personal communication 1998).
DISCUSSION
The literature review revealed 27 archaeological sites within a one mile radius of the project area.
Several of these were large sites, significant for the understanding of California prehistory and
history. Neither previous work, or this project found any sites in the project area per se. This
lack of sites can be attributed to the landform. Most of the 27 sites in the one mile radius were
situated on bluffs overlooking Upper Newport Bay. The project area, however, is located on an
enhanced landform. The previous marsh that occupied this location was filled in by soil from
dredging operations in the bay to create a surface suitable for construction.
I
RECOMMENDATIONS
Despite the project being located in an archaeological sensitive area, the project area contains no
significant resources by virtue of its recent enhancement. Thus, no additional cultural resource
investigation is required. If the boundaries of the project are changed, or if archaeological
materials are encountered during construction, an archaeologist should be retained to determine if
the material is important.

CULTURAL RESOURCES
No archaeological resources have been found to exist
on the site. Sedimentary bedrock exposed at Coney
Island has produced fish scales, foraminifers micro.
fossils, and scattered whalebone fragments. This
bedrock 1s of the Monterey Formation, which has
yielded significant vertebrate fossils in Orange
Comity and has good potential for producing important
fossils.

Environmental Impacts
Previously unexposed fossila may be uncovered
and, if mitigation measures are not taken, may
be damaged during grading.
Mitigation Measures
Grading on Coney Island should be monitored
closely by a qualified paleontologist with
the power to flag off and salvage significant
fossil finds. The remainder of the property
should be monitored on a spot-check basis.

NOISE
The Nunes site Is located within the 60 CNEL contour
for noise from air traffic at the Orange County Air-
port, a Noise Referral Zone in which individual
projects must be reviewed by the County to ensure
that interior noise standards are met. Motor
vehicle traffic constitutes the other major source
of noise lit the project area.
AESTHETICS
The sandy beach and small bay comprising the project
Hite are visible from the Newporter Inn, Jamboree
Road, Pacific Coast llighway, Promontory Point, and
Never Shores.
A short-term increase in noise will occur during
construction and dredging. Increased traffic
will lead to noise increases of approximately 5
dB(A) along Bayside Drive and less than 1 dB(A)
on Pacific Coast Highway and Jamboree Road.
Noise related to operation of the boat launching
ramp may affect residents of the adjacent mobile
home park. '
Construction will be limited to normal day-
light working hours and construction equipment
will be equipped with noise muffling devices.
Operation of the boat launching ramp should be
limited to daytime hours.

dredge and routing of dredge tailwaters through settling basins
will reduce the potential for sedimentation as a result of project
implementation. Water quality mitigation measures are discussed
in more detail in Section 2.2.3.
While the placement of riprap and bulkheads will
r
provide a substrate for rocky intertidal species, impacts on
tidal mudflats could be reduced and species diversity enhanced if
the amount of bulkheading were reduced. Elimination of the
landmark planned for the top of Coney Island will help reduce
impacts on sage scrub vegetation in that area.
Incorporation of wildlife exhibits and displays into
the proposed project could complement facilities planned for the
nearby wildlife refuge. Such displays could be placed outdoors
or in the proposed RV meeting room, restaurants, or lobby of the
family inn. Visitors would be educated the
about resources of
the Upper Bay and their appreciation of the resources would be
enhanced before venturing into the more sensitive areas of the
wildlife refuge. Disturbance of habitat and illicit collection
could potentially be reduced.
2.4 CULTURAL RESOURCES
,
2.4.1 Archaeology
2.4.1.1
Existing Conditions
An on -foot survey of the Newport Dunes project property
was conducted on January 2, 1978 by WESTEC Services, Inc. The
site reconnaissance revealed no new or previously recorded
archaeological resources, although archaeological resources have '
been recovered in the region.
2.4.1.2 Environmental Impacts
The lack of archaeological resources on the project ,
site precludes any adverse impacts on such cultural resources.
2.4.1.3 Mitigation Measures
No measures are suggested for mitigation due to the
absence of cultural resources within the project boundaries. '
[l

I
' 2.4.2 Paleontology
The following section is based on a paleontological study
of the project site by Dr. John Cooper which may be found in
' Appendix I.
2.4.2.1 Existing Conditions
A literature and records search revealed no previously
' recorded paleontologic occurrences on the subject property. A
paleontological field survey was conducted on the subject property
on April 25, 1979. Field examination of sedimentary bedrock exposed
in the small hill known as Coney Island in the northeast part of
the property produced abundant fish scales, some foraminifera micro -
fossils, and a few scattered whale bone fragments. The thinly
bedded sedimentary rocks exposed in this hill include shale, chert,
diatomaceous mudstone, and porcellanite representing the lower
part of the Monterey Formation of Middle Miocene age. While the
fossil material observed is not highly significant in or of itself,
these occurrences do serve as signboards to the possible existence
of significant fossils on the site. The Monterey Formation in
coastal Orange County has yielded many significant vertebrate
' fossils and any individual outcrop or subcrop has good potential
for producing important fossils.
The rest of the property (much of which is presently
paved) is underlain by alluvial and colluvial materials which on
the subject property are shell -bearing and contain a diverse
molluscan fauna of very Late Pleistocene to Holocene age (deposits
generally less than about ten thousand years old). A small area
mapped as Capistrano Formation (Morton and Miller, 1973) is present
-near the western boundary of the property within the trailer park.
Pleistocene age shell and bone material as well as vertebrate and
invertebrate fossils from the Miocene to Pliocene age may be
present in the Capistrano Formation.
' 2.4.2.2 Environmental Impacts
It is possible that previously unexposed fossils may be
uncovered during grading. I£ appropriate mitigation measures are
not taken, such resources may be damaged.
2.4.2.3 Mitigation Measures
' The small hill composed of Monterey Formation should be
monitored closely by a qualified paleontologist during future
grading. The remainder of the property should be ' monitored on at least a spot-check basis. The paleontologist should have the
authority to flag off significant fossil occurrences and make
arrangements for appropriate salvage. Any fossils recovered should
' 35

be donated to an appropriate educational and/or research institu-
tion such as the Natural History Foundation of Orange County, the
Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, or Department of
Earth Science, California State University, Fullerton.

2.5 AIR QUALITY
2.5.1 Existing Conditions
Ambient air quality determinations have been extremely
limited in the project area and long-term records and trends must
be based on the Air Quality Maintenance District data from the
Costa Mesa station on the grounds of Fairview State Hospital.
Although this measurement site is several miles from Newport
'
Center, the significant features of pollutant distributions at the
two locations would be expected to exhibit similar trends.
-
The degree of compliance of the Costa Mesa/Newport'Beach
area to the applicable standards is shown in Table 2-3. It should
be noted that Costa Mesa's closer proximity to the Los Angeles
urban complex and its distance from the coast would be expected to
result in a slightly greater degradation in air quality in Costa
Mesa than at the project site, but the data in Table 2-3 implies
that the standard for oxidant is surely exceeded in the project
,
area and primary vehicular -related pollutant (CO. NOx) standards
are threatened, if not exceeded, in the general area.

Dear Sandy:
This letter presents the results of a paleontologic survey conducted Thurs-
day, April 26, 1979, on the Newport Dunes property, Newport Beach, Orange county,
California. Literature and records search revealed no previously recorded paleon-
tologic occurrences on the subject property. Field examination of sedimentary
bedrock exposed in a small hill in the northeast part of the property (locality 1,
Figure 1) produced abundant fish scales, some foraminifera microfossils, and a few
scattered whale bone fragments. The thinly bedded sedimentary rocks exposed in
this hill include shale, chert, diatomaceous mudstone, and porcellanite represent-
ing the lower part of the Monterey Formation of Middle Miocene age. The fossil
material observed is not significant enough to merit pre -grading salvage or other
forms of preservation; however, these occurrences do serve as signboards to the
possible discovery of significant fossils during grading.
The rest of the property (much of which is presently paved) is underlain by
alluvial and colluvial material mapped (!Morton and Miller, 1973) as Qac, which
on the subject property are shell -bearing and contain a diverse molluscan fauna
of very Late Pleistocene to Holocene age (deposits generally less than about ten
thousand years old). A small area mapped as Capistrano Formation (Morton and Miller,
1973) is present near the western boundary of the property (off the property,
within the trailer park).
The small hill composed of Monterey Formation should be monitored closely
by a qualified paleontologist during future grading. The Monterey Formation in
coastal Orange County has yielded many significant vertebrate fossils and any
individual outcrop or subcrop has good potential for producing important fossils.
The remainder of the property should be monitored on at least a spot-check basis
by a qualified paleontologist. The possibility of Pleistocene age shell and bone
material as well as vertebrate and invertebrate fossils from the Miocene to Pliocene
age Capistrano Formation warrant some attention during surface modification activities.
Any fossils recovered should be donated to an appropriate (depending on level of
significance) educational and /or research institution such as the natural history
foundation of Orange County, the Natural History Museum of Losa Angeles County,
or Department of Earth Science, California State University, Fullerton.
I hope this report meets with your approval and I look forward to the opportunity
to work with you again. Thank you for your attention.

The marine intertidal habitat will also be affected by Dunes redevelopment.
Should the county and/or the applicant institute a dredging program, benthic
invertebrate populations would be removed, but recolonization is expected to be
rapid. The most significant impact to intertidal invertebrates anticipated as a
result of the original site plan was the loss of tidal, mudflats where approximately
1,400 linear feet of bulkheads were to be constructed. That potential impact has
been eliminated under the new site plan and the LCP; no additional bulkhead is
proposed. This precludes loss of tidal mudflat invertebrates and would retain the
area as a feeding site for aquatic birds.
Any impacts to water quality could degrade the habitat value of the lagoon and
adjacent areas. As reviewed above, the reduced number of slips, the elimination of
new bulkheading, the reduction in the amount of dredging, and the incorporation of
strict marina management guidelines and dredging policies into the LCP and
proposed DFG dredging plans reduces the potential for significant adverse water
quality impacts.
4. Cultural and Historical Resources
Archaeological and paleontological records searches and field surveys of the
Newport Dunes site were conducted in conjunction with preparation of EIR #230.
One archaeologic site was previously recorded on Coney Island but it was not
located during the field survey. The survey did not locate any additional historic or
archaeologic resources. No impacts to cultural resources would be likely to occur
upon implementation of either site plan. The sediments comprising Coney Island
are fossWferous and a potential exists for occurrence of significant fossils in that
area. Because the revised site plan proposes no construction in that area, potential
for paleontological impact is quite low. If grading is required for creation of the
footpath, a paleontologist should monitor the grading operation. Procedures for
such monitoring and subsequent actions are outlined in detail in the LCP.
5. Air Quality
EIR #230 concluded that implementation of the original site plan would result in an
incremental degradation of air quality. Emissions would result from construction

Dear Mr. Salas:
I am writing in response to the records search and
recommendations dated May 17, 1989 received from
Mr. Brian Glenn of the UCLA Archaeological Information
Center in connection with our permit application
(#235-GS) for the Newport Dunes marina expansion.
The area referenced in the Archaeological Site Survey
Record of November 29, 1965 is known as "Coney Island".
This particular area was thoroughly. studied as part
of the original Environmental Impact Report and the
Addendum thereto in connection with earlier approvals
for this project. For your information, I have
enclosed copies of the pertinent sections of each
document. As a result of the initial surveys, Coney
Island was designated as a dedicated "open space"
in all subsequent plans. As such, it will remain
totally undeveloped and the current plans include
no improvements on the Coney Island portion of ,the
Newport Dunes site. I have also enclosed a copy
of our site plan highlighting the Coney Island Open
Space and showing its relation to the balance of
the project.
Since no improvements are planned for the only area
where cultural resources were originally discovered,
I believe that the Phase I archaeological survey
' recommended by Mr. Glenn is unnecessary. Unless
I hear from you to the contrary, I will assume that
you concur. If, however, you would like to proceed

' The proposed project will include construction of a full -service destination resort hotel. The hotel
will provide 400 guestrooms and 100 time-share units. The 100 time-share units will be designed
' with the capability to be split or "locked off' for a maximum total of 600 rentable rooms. The time-
share units would be located directly north of the proposed resort hotel.
The proposed hotel would provide a total of 54,000 square feet of public areas, of which, 41,000
square feet consist of function areas, including conference rooms, meeting room, and banquet
facilities and 13,000 square feet consist ofpre-function assembly and circulation areas. Most public
areas would be provided on.the first level. These public areas would include two 12,000 square foot
' ballrooms, which can be divided into several smaller spaces, and an additional 9,000 square feet of
pre -function areas. There will also be two smaller junior ballroom/meeting rooms of 5,000 square
feet each and pre -function areas totaling 4,000 square feet. All these ballroom/meeting rooms will
be accessible to and served by a central banquet kitchen. The third level would provide a 3,000
' square foot banquet room and a total of five meeting rooms of 800 square feet each. Hotel amenities
' will include swimming pools; health, fitness and recreational facilities; children's facilities; dining

Figure 2 shows the site plan for the proposed project. It is estimated that the proposed project -will
be completed by the Year 2002.
EXISTING COUNT DATA
For informational purposes, 24-hour directional counts were conducted at five location on two
summer weekends. This data can be found in Appendix A. The data indicates that the peak
weekend day in the vicinity of the project is a Saturday, generally around 11:00 in the morning and
between 2:00 and 4:00 in the afternoon. Other weekday traffic data were provided by the City of
Newport Beach as a part of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) procedure.
TRIP GENERATION RATES
A trip generation rate comparison was conducted between the "Hotel" land use and the "Resort
Hotel" land use. Both land uses were referenced from Trin Generation' and are based upon the
number of guest rooms occupied. As shown in Table 11 the "Hotel" land use has higher trip
generation rates which provides for a "worst case" scenario. These higher trip generation rates were
utilized in this study. Trip generation estimates for hotel uses are generally based upon the number
of guest rooms occupied and includes consideration of restaurant, retail and meeting/ballroom
facilities within the hotel.

containing local services and complete recreational facilities. These dwelling units are often
second homes used by the owner periodically or rented on a seasonal basis.
N/A - Not Available
Note: The Hotel rates were utilized in this study due to the fact that these rates were higher than those
shown for "Resort Hotel".

It was also noted that the resort hotel data are based upon a single study of a hotel in Hawaii in 1972
and probably is not representative of the subject location. '
Additional analyses were requested by the City of Newport Beach regarding the amount of meeting '
area within the proposed hotel. A comparison was made with 12 similar existing/proposed hotels '
to determine whether the amount of meeting area for the proposed hotel exceeds what is found in
similar hotels. This data was collected from studies, dated from 1985 to 1998, completed by WPA
Traffic Engineering, Inc. and other consultants. Table 2 presents the comparison. As shown in
Table 2, the proposed project falls below the average or has less meeting space per hotel room than
most of the comparable hotels. I
A further analyses was completed regarding the "Hotel' trip generation rates. The "Hotel' trip '
generation rate utilized in this study was compared to trip generation rates for hotels found in other,
sources. Table 3 shows this comparison, which indicates that the trip generationrates utilized in this '
study were comparable or higher than the rates found in other sources. '
Also located in Table 3, for informational purposes, are weekend trip generation rates for the hotel ,
land use, which are higher than the weekday peak hour trip rates. This higher rate maybe accounted
forby a study which was completed regarding hotel functions on weekends. (Within those analyses, ,
specific attention was paid towards the summer months.)
Data was gathered from information compiled by Evans Hotel representatives (applicant) ofa similar '
facility to the proposed project, the Catamaran Resort Hotel in San Diego which is also operated by
the applicant. This data can be found in Appendix B. The data was presented in three categories; '
Group, In -House and Catering.
The "Group" category is comprised almost solely of people who are
staying at the hotel, there may be a very small percentage which may come '
from outside the hotel.

► The "In -House" category is comprised solely for employees who are on -
site. Employees meetings, seminars, etc.
► "Catered" functions are comprised mostly of people from off -site. It
'
should be noted that some on -site groups may have been counted in the
catering category, which may provide for an over estimate. Catering
functions include weddings, anniversary parties, birthday parties, and other
'
similar functions. Catered events are usually heaviest around the holidays
and summer months. The peak days for the catered events are on Saturday.
'
Catered events tend to be in the evening on the weekdays and the afternoon
and evening on the weekends.
Note: The arrival patterns of the guests staying at the hotel were reviewed
with hotel representatives, and it was found that there are very few
arrivals/departures on Saturdays.
' Table 4 summarizes the data for "Catered" events by summer months, day, time of day and number
of attendees. The higher number of attendees shown in Table 4 on the weekends for catered events
seem to coincide with the trip generation rates identified for weekends shown on Table 3.
' In order to deduct for the trips generated by the 150 recreational vehicle spaces that will be deleted
' with this project, the campground/recreational vehicle park land use was also referenced from Dip
Generation.
' TRIP GENERATION
A trip generation comparison was completed between analyzing a 600 room hotel vs. a 400 room
hotel with 100 time share units, to determine the highest trip generator. Table I displays this trip
' generation comparison. As shown in Table I, the 600 room hotel generates more traffic during the
' daily, AM and PM peak hours than the 400 room hotel with 100 time share units; therefore, in order
to provide a "worst case" analysis the 600 room hotel was utilized as the proposed project.

Table 5 summarizes the information for trip generation rates and trips generated for the proposed
project. As shown in Table 5 the proposed project, less the 150 recreational vehicle spaces which
will be displaced with this development, is estimated to generate 4,800 daily trip ends of which 365
(215 In, 150 Out) would occur during the AM peak hour and 365 (180 In, 185 Out) would occur
during the PM peak hour.
Currently there is a Settlement Agreement for the Newport Dunes site dated December 9, 1988,
which provides specific uses for the site that can be developed without City approval. The City of
Newport Beach was contacted to discuss previously approved trip allocations for uses within the
1988 Settlement Agreement which are no longer being proposed. Based upon discussions with City
Staff, it was determined that previously approved trip allocations could be taken for a 275 room
1 hotel; 5,000 SF of Marina Commercial, which is comprised of both retail and office uses; and a
15,000 SF restaurant. The trip ends associated with each of these uses were referenced from
rdocumentation received from the City of Newport Traffic Engineering Department. These values
' have been and are included as Committed Project traffic in the TPO analyses.
Table 5 lists the information from the 1988 Settlement Agreement. A total of 3,989 daily
previously approved trip allocations could be taken of which 215 (145 In, 70 Out) are in the AM
peak hour and 308 (180 In, 128 Out) are in the PM peak hour.
The estimated trips generated by the proposed project were reduced by the previously approved trip
allocations listed above. As shown in Table 5, the proposed project would add 800 daily trip ends
' to road system of which 150 (70 In, 80 Out) would occur during the AM peak hour and 55 (0In, 55
' Out) would occur during the PM peak hour.

TRIP DISTRIBUTION
Project distribution percentages were developed based upon previously completed distributions in
the area, the location of the trip attractors, type of land use, proximity of freeways, and the
surrounding street system. Figure 3 illustrates the resulting distribution percentages which have
been previously approved by the City of Newport Beach Engineering Department. The project
generated trip ends were then assigned to the road system based on these distribution percentages
and the proposed project accesses.
TRA FFIC IMPA CT A NA L YSES
With the passage of the gas tax increase (Proposition 111), in June 1990, came a requirement that
each urbanized area in the State with a population of 50,000 or more, adopt a Congestion
Management Program (CMP). A program was developed for Orange County. Cities were also
given an option of having their individual impact analyses guidelines approved to satisfy the CMP
requirements. The City of Newport Beach has had the Transportation Phasing Ordinance (TPO)
approved, so that the analyses completed under the TPO satisfy CMP requirements.
The City of Newport Beach was contacted to determine the intersections that were to be included
these analyses. There are a total of 15 intersections which were included in this study and they. are
listed in Table 6.
The "One Percent Traffic Volume Analysis" which is part of the City of Newport Beach Traffic
Phasing Ordinance (TPO) and provided to us by the City of Newport Beach was utilized for each
of the study intersections. If project generated traffic is greater than one percent of the combined
total of existing, regional growth and committed project traffic on any approach to any of the
selected intersections, then additional analyses are required which consists of Intersection Capacity
Utilization (ICU) analyses. Projects may be approved when the ICU value for an intersection will
not exceed 0.90 or the ICU value does not change when the project is added.

The basis for the comparison includes existing traffic, regional growth and approved/committed
project traffic. A list of the committed projects is provided in Table 7 Since the project is
scheduled for completion in the Year 2002, the analyses were completed for the Year 2003 as
required by the Ordinance.
The proposed project peak 2.5 hour volumes (which are double the peak hour volumes) for the AM
and PM were distributed onto the street system, and these trips were added to the "One Percent
Traffic Volume Analysis ". Appendix C contains the data for the individual intersections and the
results are summarized in Table 8.
The criteria established by the City of Newport Beach indicated that any intersection where the
project traffic during the 2.5 hour peak exceeds one percent of existing plus regional growth plus
approved project traffic must be analyzed in detail. Review of Table 8 indicates that eight (8) of
the study intersections exceed the maximum one percent on at least one approach and must be
considered critical.
The eight (8) study intersections listed below were fiuther analyzed to determine potential impacts.

Utilizing the "Intersection Capacity Utilization Analysis" forms from the Traffic Phasing
Ordinance (TPO) procedure, ICU values were determined including traffic increases due to regional
in
growth and previously approved projects. The individual analysis sheets are contained Appendix
D and summarized in Table 9.
Review of Table 9 indicates that all of the study intersection would operate at acceptable Levels of
Service (an ICU level of 0.90 or less) during both the AM and PM peak hours except the study
intersection of Jamboree/Ford. This study intersection would operate at an unacceptable Level of

Service, ICU levels of 0.94, during the PM peak hour. This unacceptable level would be obtained
under conditions without the project and maintained (unchanged) when the proposed project is ,
added. A note should be made that at the study intersection of Jamboree/Ford an eastbound free
right turn will be constructed within the next five years, which will reduce the ICU value.
The ICU levels at the study intersection of Jamboree/Ford remain unchanged when the project is
added, which indicates that the proposed project has an insignificant impact upon the study
intersection; and therefore, no improvements would be needed with addition of the proposedproject.
FUTURE CONDITIONS -LONG RANGE GENERAL PLAN
Based upon information from the City of Newport Beach, a model run of the area utilizing the
NBTAM was conducted by Austin -Foust Associates, Inc., providing traffic daily forecast data on
road segments andpeakhourdata at the study intersections underLongRange General Plan Baseline
conditions both with and without the project. ,
Lone Ranee Baseline Conditions Without the Project
A model run was performed under baseline conditions without the project. Figu?e 4 illustrates the '
daily volumes on the road system within the vicinity of the proposed project under Long Range
General Plan conditions without the project.
Baseline intersections analyses under the Long Range General Plan conditions without the project
were also conducted at each of the study intersections. The ICU worksheets can be found in
Appendix D and summarized in Table 10.
As shown in Table 10, under Long Range baseline conditions without the project, all of the study
intersections would operate at an acceptable Level of Service during both the AM and PM peak
hours except for the study intersections of Coast Highway/Balboa-Superior (1.16/F-PM), Coast

Lone Rance Baseline Conditions With the froiect
Currently within the model there is data which reflects uses on the proposed project site which are
no longer valid. These uses were deducted from the appropriate zones and changes were made to
the data within the model to reflect what is currently being presented for the proposed project.
Figure S illustrates the daily volumes under Long Range General Plan conditions with the project.
The volumes indicate that there is a slight increase in the surrounding streets of Pacific Coast
Highway, Jamboree, MacArthur and Newport Coast which is considered reasonable due to the type
of land use proposed and the fact that these roads lead to freeways. A more detailed analyses of the
project impacts upon the surrounding street system was completed with the analyses of the study
intersection operations.
The study intersections were analyzed under Long Range General Plan conditions with the project.
Table 10, which was presented earlier, shows that the study intersections of Coast Highway/Balboa-
Superior (1.14/F-PM), Coast Highway/Riverside (1.08/F-PM), Coast HighwayBayside (1.04/E-
PM), Coast Highway/Marguerite (0.92/E-AM) and Jamboree/Eastbluff--Ford (1.02/F-AM, 0.99/E-
PM) all operating at unacceptable Levels of Service.
Also presented on Table 10 are the change in the ICU levels which show an increase or decrease due
to the addition of the proposed project. There may be a decline in the ICU values due to the change
in land use from what was previously assumed in the model for this site and what is now being
proposed.
As shown in Table 10, with the proposed project, the critical study intersections of Coast
Highway/Balboa-Superior and Coast Highway/Riverside would have ICU values that decrease when

the project is added and therefore no improvements would be required. In addition, the study
intersection of Jamboree/Eastbluff--Ford is proposed to have a City planned improvement of an
eastbound free right turn lane implemented within the next five years which would improve the
intersection operations to an acceptable level.
The City of Newport Beach was contacted to discuss improvements at the study intersection of
Coast Highway/Marguerite. Currently, there are no improvements which could be provided at this
study, intersection which would be feasible.
The study intersection of Coast Highway/Bayside, which is the project main access, would require
the following improvements in order to mitigate at least the project's impact.
❑ Restripe the southbound through/right lane to a left/through combination lane.
❑ Add a separate southbound right turn lane.
❑ Maintain separate phasing in the north/south direction.
With these improvements in place, the study intersection of Coast Highway/Bayside would operate
at an acceptable Level of Service during the AM (0.72/C) peak hour but would continue to operate
at an unacceptable Level of Service during the PM peak hour (0.91 /E). Under Long Range Baseline
conditions without the project the model indicates that the study intersection of Coast
Highway/Bayside would operate at an unacceptable Level of Service during the PM peak hour with
an ICU value of 0.94. Table 10 indicates that these improvements would mitigate all the project
impacts and the study intersection would operate at slightly better ICU level (0.91).
PROJECT ACCESS AND ON -SITE CIRCULATION
As stated earlier in this study, access to the project site is obtained via Bayside Drive. Currently
Bayside Drive, from Coast Highway to the marina entrance, is two lanes undivided with on -street
parking.
WPA TRAFFIC ENGINEERING, INC. Newport Dunes Hote
Job #971200 City of Newport Beach
-2�
The current right-of-way along Bayside Drive is 80 feet. It is recommended that Bayside Drive
provide a 12 foot travel lane and a five foot on street bike facility for each direction with an eight
foot parking bay on the south side ofBayside Drive, east of the trailer park entrance. Left turnlanes
shall be provided at the entrance to the Bayside Village Trailer Park. Advance pedestrian crossing
warning signs along with pavement marking should be provided before the entrance to the Bayside
Village Trailer Park for both the northbound and southbound direction. A Class I Bikeway 12 feet
in width shall be provided on the west side of Bayside Drive and a six foot sidewalk shall also be ,
provided along Bayside Drive.
The intersection of Bayside Drive and the internal street to the site, which is a "T"-intersection,
should have a traffic control of STOP signs on all legs. The internal street should provide one lane
in each direction with a width acceptable to the City. At the eastern end of the internal street there
should be a gate or some type of barrier that restricts non -service vehicles from going between the
Newport Dunes Resort trailer park and the proposed project.
Deliveries to the hotel complex would access the site via Bayside Drive and then proceed northerly
within the site. The service access for deliveries is located on the northerly side of the entry and
parking garage. This on -site route is separated from the existing mobile home park by a parking
area, as well as landscaping. I
Main access to the parking garage is on the third level; however, a secondary access to the parking I
garage is on the ground level. It is recommended that the vehicles exiting the parking garage at this
secondary access be controlled by a STOP sign.
There is a traffic circle that provides access to the hotel entry and ground level parking for the time
share units and marina which should be signed "Keep Right" for all approaches.

Currently, the final site plan is not available for the parking structure design. The following
suggestions should be kept in mind when designing the circulation within the parking structure: 1)
Adequate space should be allowed for vehicles to pass one another without encroaching upon the
opposing lanes; 2) The parking isles should provide adequate circulation with no "dead ends" where
vehicles may not be able to turn around; 3) Parking level three or the entry level should provide
exclusive parking spaces for checking in and out of the hotel and valet parking only to prevent
parking within the hotel porte-cochere area.
When a site plan becomes available with the final parking structure design, it should be reviewed
by a qualified traffic engineer.
BUSSING
The developer of the site was contacted to obtain data on the amount of bussing which may be
expected at this site. Based upon a letter to one of our staff members, which can be found in
Appendix E, there is very little information available on bussing within the hotel industry. The
following is a synopsis of what may be expected.
The design of this hotel as a destination resort is expected to keep busing to a minimum; however,
there may be some occasions where buses may be made available to spouses attending conferences
to join other spouses on conference -sponsored activities to local shopping areas or other attractions.
It is projected that these group -oriented activities will take place mainly during the week and at off-
peak times.
It is policy of the hotel that no more than one-half of the rooms may be retained to any one group.
Therefore, for a 600 room hotel 300 rooms would be the maximum size of any group staying at the
Newport Dunes Hotel. The maximum number of bus occupants during the daytime would be 300
or spouses only. The maximum number of bus occupants during the evening would be 600 or the
attendees of the conference and their spouses. If a bus can hold 50 people, a "worst case" scenario
WPA TRAFFIC ENGINEERING, INC. Newport Dunes Hotel
Job #971200 City of Newport Beach
would mean 6 busses for the afternoon and 12 busses in the evening. It should be noted that these
numbers are based upon a "worst case" scenario and based upon the experience of the developer, it
is more likely that 1/4 to %: as many busses may be more realistic once or twice during the week.
Arrival and departures of these busses would not be at once but rather staggered. It should be noted
that it is the policy ofthe hotel that no idling of vehicles is allowed once on site and there is adequate
room on -site for buses to queue.
The site plan was reviewed regarding on -site circulation of buses and found to be adequate.
PARKING
The parking analyses have been directed toward the evaluation of the parking supply to
accommodate existing and future parking demands. All parking for the proposed project will take
access via Bayside Drive; however, there is availability for overflow parking on the east side of the
lagoon via Backbay Drive. If parking is needed on the east side of the lagoon, trams will be
available to provide transportation tothehotel. Field data for the entire parking areafor the Newport
Dunes resort was colle4ed.
A total ofthree (3) parking scenarios are shown for the proposedproject. The first scenario contains
* 600 room hotel with the associated amenities and includes the existing marina. Scenario 2 includes
a 400 room hotel with the associated amenities along with 100 time share units and the existing
marina. A third scenario was completed in an evaluation ofparking under amaximum use scenario.
The most recent site plan indicates that on the west side of the lagoon, the proposed project will
provide both surface parking and aparking structure for atotal of 1,220 parking spaces. The parking
lot located on the east side of the lagoon provides a total of 815 parking spaces.

Existing Conditions
Currently there are two parking areas that serve the Newport Dunes Resort area. Parking-ispro�d
via Bayside Drive which serves solely the marina; and -parking via -Back Bay Drive which serves the
Back Bay Caf —BoatL-attnch-area,-visitor parking for the trailer park and activities for the
swimming lagoon (i.e. picnic area, playground, water sport rentals, etc.), The only connection
provided between the two parking areas is a pedestrian bridge located on the north side of the
swimming lagoon.
The parking area located via Bayside Drive currently has a total of 505 parking spaces and 815
parkig-spaces are located in the parking area via B_ack-Bay-Drixe, for a total of 1,320 parking
spaces.
Field Studies
Parking counts were conducted of the existing Newport Dunes Resort to establish a peak parking
rate for the marina facility. As stated earlier all of the parking for Newport Dunes Resort was
counted. The parking lot, via Back Bay Drive, was counted for infdrmational purposes. Both
parking facilities were counted on Saturday, April 18,1998 and Sunday, April 19,1998 between the
hours of 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM. A previous parking study of this area surveyed from 8:00 AM to
8:00 PM, with the peak occurring at 2:00 PM2. The current study was conducted to verify these prior
results for the marina use. It should be noted that the weekend which was selected to complete the
counts was one of the first sunny weekends in months. In addition, Sunday (4/19/98) was "Earth
Day at the Bay", which may provide conservative results.
Table 11 presents the results of the existing parking demand counts at the Newport Dunes Resort.

Bayside Drive was Sunday at 2:00 PM with 196 pazke ehicl�s.
Parking Demand - Based upon City Code
The City of Newport Beach parking codes were referenced to obtain parking requirements for the
proposed project. Table 12 lists the City Parking Code requirements utilized in this study. As
shown in Table 12, based upon city code under Scenario 1, the 600 room hotel which includes
banquet/meeting rooms, personal services, retail and a restaurant would require 1,470 parking
spaces. Parking needs for the existing boat slips would be an additional 344 parking spaces for a
total of 1,814 parking spaces.
Utilizing City parking codes for Scenario 2, which includes a 400 room hotel and associated
amenities which were listed above and 100 time share units would require 1,450 parking spaces.
The existing boat slips would require a total of 344 parking spaces for a total parking demand under
Scenario 2 of 1,794 parking spaces.
As stated earlier the proposed project will provide a total of 1,220 parking spaces which results in
a parking shortage under Scenarios 1 and 2 utilizing the City's parking code requirements.
Parking Demand - Based upon Current Parking Counts
Marina
The existing marina, which has a total of 430 boat slips, (t Mips in front of the Back Bay Caf6, 90
slips adjacent to the pedestrian bridge and 325 slips west of the pedestrian bridge) will remain within
the area of the proposed project. In order to determine the number of parking spaces required for
the marina use, a peak parking rate was established.
Associates at the Newport Dunes Resort were contacted to ascertain what percentage of the manna
use, which are associated with the boat slips, utilize the parking lot via Bayside Drive. Based upon

discussions with Newport Dunes staff, it was determinedshat a roximat y_80 percent of marking
for the marina boat slips park in the parking lot via Baysi n've. Currently there area total of430
boat slips which would indicate that parking for 344 slips are located in the parking lot via Bayside
Drive. The existing counts show a peakarking demann of 196 parked.vehicles in the B-ay_sid
Drive parking lot. This peak represents a ratio of 0.57 parked vehicles per slip.
A previous study' of this site had completed field studies of the marina which indicated a peak
parking demand for the marina of 0.57 parked vehicles per slip. This previous study verifies the
findings presented earlier.
Although it was determined that approximately 80 percent of the parking for the marina boat slips
park in the Bayside Drive parking area, for a "worst case" analysis it was assumed that there would
be a parkin_gjneedJbr-a1U30 slur 2 sparking spaces in the Bayside Drive parking area.
Hotel
Data were collected from previously prepared studies on hotel parking ratios. A parking study'
which was previously prepared for the Newport Dunes Resort was referenced to obtain hotel parking
rates which had be utilized and approved in the past for this site. Within the previous Newport
Dunes parking report, a total of six parking rates were shown for six different hotels. As stated in
the previous Newport Dunes parking report, the Del Coronado, La Costa and Newporter hotels were
found to best represent the planned facility. An average parking ratio of 1.17 was established for
these three hotels and was utilized in the previous study for a proposed hotel.

Another hotel parking stud? has been completed by WPA Traffic Engineering which included count
data of the existing Four Seasons Hotel with functions taking placein the ballroom facilities. Based
upon the count data and the number of rooms in the hotel a parking rate of 1.18 was established.
It should be noted that both of the hotel rates, 1.17 and 1.18, include such amenities as
banquettmeeting rooms, personal services, retail and restaurants. I
In order to provide a conservative analysis, the 1.18 parking rate was utilized for the hotel land use I
in this study. As shown in Table 12, under Scenario 1, the 600 room hotel would require 708
parking spaces. Under Scenario 2, the 400 room hotel would require 472 parking spaces and the 100 r
time share units would require 120 parking spaces. Currently, there is.no parking data available on
time share units; therefore the number of spaces required for the time share units were based upon
City code requirements. I
Restaurant I
As mentioned above, the hotel rate does include restaurants that may be located within the hotel;
however, there were some concerns noted that there may be some restaurant use from outside the r
resort facility. A traffic study that was prepared for "The Disneyland Resort" 6 was referenced to
obtain data on the percentage of trips that may be from adjacent hotels or other nearby areas. The
study indicates that approximately 40 percent of the trips to the hotel restaurant were from outside
the hotel.
u
In order to provide a "worst case" analysis it was assumed that 50 percent of the restaurant trips
would be from outside the proposed project. The City parking code was applied to the proposed
restaurant square footage in both parking scenarios and a 50 percent reduction was taken forintemal
hotel use.

spaces, the hotel land use would require 708 parking spaces and the external trips to the restaurant
land use would require 157 parking spaces for a total of 1,110 parking spaces. Scenario 2, which
' includes both hotel and timeshare land uses would require 472 and 120 parking spaces, respectively,
245 parking spaces for the manna, and 13 8 parking spaces for the external trips to the restaurant land
use for a total of 975 parking spaces.
Scenario 1 of the proposed project would require a total of 1,110 parking spaces and the proposed
project is providing a total of 1,220 parking spaces for a parking surplus o 11 lapa d spaces.
Under Scenario 2 there is a need for 975 parking spaces with a parking supply of 1,220 parking
spaces for a parking surplus of 245 parking spaces.
' A note should be made that a conservative parking analysis has been presented with the higher
parking rate utilized for the hotel parking (1.18 vs. 1.17), a higher percentage of external trips
associated with the restaurant located inside the hotel (50% vs. 40%) and it was assumed that all of
' the marina parking for the boat slips would utilize the parking lot via Bayside Drive.
The maximum use scenario entailed all of the hotel rooms occupied, the marina use and restaurant
use would be fully parked', and the meeting/ballrooms within the proposed hotel would be occupied
by non -guests. Table 13 provides a parking summary under these conditions.
In order to obtain the conditions where the meeting/ballrooms would be occupied by non -guests, the
data presented in Table 4 was utilized. As shown in Table 4, the peak summer month for Catered

functions was in August with 1,644 guests over a one month period. When this data was gathered
there were five Saturdays in the month of August, which means that as an average there were 329
guests utilizing the meeting/ballroom facilities during the peak summer month of August on a
weekend day. A rate of 18.8 per 1,000 SF was established based upon the number of guests and the
total square footage of meeting/ballroom space (329/17.5). Utilizing this rate, the proposed project
is forecasted to expect 771 people on a summer weekend day. A conservative assumption was made
that there would be at least two people per vehicle for a total of 386 parked vehicles for the proposed
meeting/ballroom facilities.
As shown in Table 13, there would be a parking demand of 1,496 parking spaces. As mentioned
earlier in this study there are a total of 1,220 parking spaces provided on the west side of the lagoon
via Bayside Drive. Under this scenario, there would be a need for overflow parking to be provided
on the parking lot located on the east side of the lagoon via Backbay Drive.

SUMMARY
This study has examined the traffic factors related to the proposed Newport Dunes Hotel project
located within the City of Newport Beach. Estimates have been made of traffic to be generated by
the proposed project and the ability of the road system to accommodate the added traffic. These
—32—

analyses were completed to conform to the requirements of the City's Traffic Phasing Ordinance.
General Plan Long Range conditions were also examined utilizing data from the City's model.
Access, on -site circulation and parking were also reviewed.
The following are the principal findings of the study.
1. A trip generation rate comparison was completed between the "Hotel" land use and
"Resort Hotel" landuse. The "Hotel" land use has higher trip generation rates which
were utilized in this study.
2. A comparison was also completed regarding the amount of meeting space per hotel
room. The comparison revealed that the proposed project'samount ofineetingspace
per hotel room falls below the average.
3. Data was also provided for "catered" events in the ballroom/meeting room facilities
during the weekend summer months. The data provided coincides with the weekend
rates for "Hotel" land uses.
4. The proposed proj ect is estimated to generate 4,8 00 daily trip ends ofwhich 3 65 (215
In, 150 Out) would occur during the AM peak hour and 365 (180In, 185 Out) would
occur during the PM peak hour. It should be noted that of the 4,800 daily trip ends
estimated for the proposed project, 4,000 are currently in theNewport Beach General
Plan, as defined by the 1988 Settlement Agreement.
Afterthe400 trips in the 1988 Settlement Agreement for the site are subtracted from
the proposed project trips, the estimated net new trips were 800 daily trip ends of
which 150 (70 In, 80 Out) occurred during the AM peak hour and 55 (0In, 55 Out)
occurred during the PM peak hour.

5. A total of 15 study intersections were examined. Eight of the study intersections
exceeded the maximum one percent on at least one approach.
6. ICU analyses were completed for the eight study intersections. All of the study
intersections would operate at acceptable ICU levels during both the AM and PM
peak hours. The remaining two study intersections of Coast Hwy/Dover-Bayshore
and Jamboree/Ford would operate at an unacceptable ICU level during the PM peak
hour. However, there were no project impacts at these two study intersections and
improvements by the project were not warranted under project opening day
conditions.
7. Under Long Range General Plan conditions without the project all of the study
intersections would operate at acceptable Levels of Service during both the AM and
PM peakhours except forthe study intersections of Coast Highway/Balboa-Superior,
Coast Highway/Riverside, Coast HighwayBayside, Jamboree/Santa Barbara and
Jamboree/Eastbluff-Ford.
8. When the proposed project is added to the Long Range General Plan conditions, the
study intersections of Coast Highway/Balboa-Superior, Coast Highway/Riverside,
Coast HighwayBayside, Coast Highway/Marguerite and Jamboree/Eastbluff--Ford
would operate at unacceptable Levels of Service.
9. The two study intersections of Coast Highway/Balboa-Superior and Coast
Highway/Riverside would have ICU values that decrease when the project is added.
10. There is a City planned improvement at the study intersection ofJamboreeBastbluff-
Ford which would provide acceptable operations under General Plan long range
conditions with the project.

18. Under the maximum use scenario, overflow parking would be required in the parking
lot located via Backbay Drive. After all parking needs were met there would be a
parking surplus of 108 parking spaces.
' PROJECT RELATED IMPROVEMENTS
1. The study intersection of Coast Highway/Bayside requires the following
improvements under Long Range Baseline conditions with the project:
❑ Restripe the southbound through/right lane to a left/through combination lane.
❑ Add a separate southbound right turn lane.
❑ Maintain separate phasing in the north/south direction.
2. The following recommendation are for along Bayside Drive:
❑ Bayside Drive shall provide a 12 foot travel and a five foot on street bike
facility for each direction with an eight foot parking bay on the south side of
Bayside Drive east of the trailer park entrance. Left turn lanes shall be
provided at the entrance to the Bayside Village Trailer Park.
❑ A Class I Bike path, 12 feet in width shall be provided on the west side of
Bayside Drive, and a six foot sidewalk shall also be provided on Bayside
Drive.
❑ Advance pedestrian crossing warning signs along with pavement markings
should be provided before the entrance to the Bayside Village Trailer Park for
both the northbound and southbound directions.
The intersection of Bayside Drive and the internal street to the site, should have a
STOP sign on all legs.
4. The internal street should provide one lane in each direction with lane widths that are
acceptable to the City of Newport Beach.
�` WPA TRAFFIC ENGINEERING, INC. Newport Dunes Hotel
Job #971200 City of Newport Beach
5. There should be a gate or barrier provided at the eastern end of the internal roadway
to restrict non -service vehicles from going between theNewport Dunes Resort trailer
park and the proposed project.
6. A STOP sign should be provided for vehicles exiting the parking garage on the
ground level.
7. A "Keep Right" sign should be placed on all approaches to the traffic circle.
8. When a final parking structure site plan becomes available, it should be reviewed by
a qualified traffic engineer.

' SUBJECT: NEWPORTDUNESPARKING-ADDENDUM
Dear Ms. Divan:
This letter summarizes our review of existing parking space counts at the Newport Dunes Resort
' located in Newport Beach. OnFriday June 4,'l 999, a representative from the Newport Dunes Resort
and a representative from WPA Traffic Engineering, Inc. counted the entire parking area within the
' Newport Dunes Resort, except for the boat storage area located on the east side of the Lagoon. Table
I lists the use and number of parking spaces associated with each use.
UPDATED PARKING SPACE COUNT DATA
The parking analyses Iocated within the traffic study which was prepared for the Newport Dunes
Hotel, dated February 5, 1999 by WPA Traffic Engineering, Inc. was re-examined to determine if
there were any changes to the parking spaces within the report and if so, to update the findings. The
parking analysis begins on page 23 of the traffic study.

As stated in the traffic study, on pages 23 and 24, the parking areas which were included in the
analyses were the day use and the boat launch parking on the East side and the marina parking on
the West side. As shown in the traffic study on pages 23 and 24, a total of 641 parking spaces were
assumed in the day use area and 174 parking spaces in the boat launch parking area, which also
included the Cafe parking for a total of 815 existingparki�spapes. A total of 505 parking spaces
' were assumedintheprevious ip ous traffic study for the marina use on the west side of the lagoon, for a
total of 1,320 parking spaces.
' Based upon the updated counts shown in Table 1, there would be a total of 646 parking spaces
available in the day use area and 138 parking spaces in the boat launchparking area for a total of784
' parking spaces. In addition, the new marina parking counts established 488 existing parking spaces
on the west side of the lagoon, for a total of 1,272 parking spaces.
' It should be noted that the remaining parking uses within the Newport Dunes Resort area would not
be utilized by the new Hotel facilities and therefore were not included in the original traffic study;
however, the existing parking space count was included for informational purposes.
CHANGES TO PARKING ANALYSES
As stated in the previous traffic report, the site plan for the proposed hotel indicates that proposed
' project will provide both surface parking and a parking structure for a total parking supply of 1,220
parking spaces which will be located on the west side ofthe lagoon. Based on the new parking space
' counts, 784 parking spaces will be available on the east side of the lagoon for the proposed project,
for a total of 2,004 parking spaces.
The following data can be found in Table 12 (page 27) and on pages 30-32 of the previous traffic
study. Based upon Scenario 1, there would be a parking need for 1,110 parking spaces. As stated
' earlier there are a total of 1,220 parking spaces being provided on the west side of the lagoon which
WPA Tragic Engineering, Inc. Newport Dunes Hotel Traffic Study Addendum
,' Job #971200.add City of Newport Beach
-41
would provide for a parking surplus of 110 parking spaces. Scenario 2 established a parking need
of 975 parking spaces, and based upon a parking supply of 1,220 parking spaces there would be a
parking surplus of 245 parking spaces.
Based upon a maximum use scenario, which is shown on Table 13 (page 31) of the traffic study,
a total of 1,496 parking spaces are needed. Based upon the parking provided on the east side of the
lagoon,1,220 parking spaces, and the existing parking located in the day use area and boat launch
area, 784 parking spaces, a total of 2,004 parking spaces could serve the project. T-aking.into
account the existing peak parking supply of 431 parking spaces on the east side ofthe lagoon, there
wottjd beaparking_surplus -of parking spaces.
I bre would be an adequate parking supply with a surplus of parking indicated under all scenarios.
We trust that this additional information will be of assistance to you. If you have any questions or
need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Dear Heather.
' This letteris inresponseto the City ofNewport Beach's inquiry regardingbus access totheproposed
Newport Dunes Hotel and Timeshare Resort. You have asked for an estimate of the expected
amount of bussing in the project and the role of such bussing.
Naturally, any such estimate will involve a certain amount of conjecture. This is especially true
because we have not maintained a record of bus -related activity at our other properties, nor have I
been able to locate empirical data either through discussion with other local hotel operators or
reference to industry standards or manuals. However, I have discussed the matter with sales and
catering personnel at our properties and similar properties as well as destination management
companies and can offer some general guidance.
As a preliminary comment, a majority of our guests will arrive by private vehicle, taxi, or airport
shuttle. We generally do not, nor do we expect in the future to, participate in the Tour segment of
the hotel market where all guests arrive by bus or coach. Therefore, all bus traffic will be generated
principally by the Group segment of business (i.e., conferences, seminars, etc.) and be related to
group events.
There are a few varieties of group bussing. First, spouses attending conferences are often offered
the option of joining other spouses on conference -sponsored activities, such as tours of interesting
local attractions or shopping, Second, the entire group will sometimes be bussed to some location
for a particular event (such as a reception) or activity (such as golf).
We expect the impact of this type of bussing to be minimal for several reasons. First, Newport
Dunes is designed as a destination resort in and of itself Therefore, the main attraction of the
property is the facility itself and its many amenities and activities. These factors would be a major
reason for choosing Newport Dunes as a conference site in the first place. As an example, we
currently host many corporate beach parties for groups staying at other local hotels. Bussing will
obviously be unnecessary for similar parties for groups resident at our hotel. Second, since this
bussing is generally group -oriented, it will take place mainly during the week and primarily during
1131 Back Bay Drive • Newport Beach, CaGfomia 92660 9 Q14) 729•DUNE

non -peak hours. Third, many of the points of local interest are local, thus making a shuttle system
utilizing vans a more efficient, economical, and service -oriented means of accomplishing the
transportation needs of the group.
However, for the sake of worst -case scenario analysis, we have prepared the following operational
projections. Assuming a 600-room hotel (the greatest impact), we would anticipate selling no more
than three-quarters of the hotel (450 rooms) to groups. As a matter of policy and prudence, we
always maintain the remaining inventory for leisure guests, individual business travelers, and our
contracted foreign and package business. Forbusinessreasonshavingtodowithrevenueprotection,
we generally do not sell more than half the hotel to any one group. Therefore, 300 roomswould be
the maximum size of any group staying at the Newport Dunes Hotel.
Maximum bussing would consist either of 100'/9 of spouses during the day or 100% of all attendees
and spouses at night. Malting the most conservative estimates of 100% participation and 100yo
spouse attendance, that translates into 300 daytime bus occupants and 600 evening bus occupants.
At 50 people per bus, that means 6 or 12 busses, respectively. Based on our experience, we do riot
expect traffic even approaching this magnitude more than once a week. Much more likely is traffic
of lesser magnitude (in the range of one -quarter to one-half as many busses) that could occur once
or twice a week. Moreover, even in amass bussing scenario, not all busses would arrive and/or wait
at once. Mather, bus departures are generally somewhat staggered to allow forbetter group flowboth
at the resort site and the destination.
As for operational concerns, busses will access the project from Pacific Coast Highway via Bayside
Drive. Once on site, they can access the hotel from any ofthree separate locations: up the main drive
either to the mainporte cochcre or the conference center Porte cochere (the top deck of the packing
structure in this area will be reinforced for fire truck access, thus allowing bus traffic) or along the
main drive to the tiunesharelmarina Porte cochere. This will allow maximum flexibility in the
unlikely event that all busses am present on -site at once. in keeping with current operating policy,
no idling of vehicles is allowed once on site.
To conclude, there are a couple of caveats. Fitst, it is important to keep in mind that a bus with 50
people on board will replace trafficfromat least 25 automobiles, assuming an unusually high 100%
two -passenger occupancy. Therefore, a single bus will take the place of between 25 and 50
individual automobiles for the purposes of traffic, air quality, and noise analysis. Second, it is also
important to keep in mind that bus activity is a part of the operation of virtually any hotel ormsort
development. Therefore, studies ofsimilar projects have inevitably includedthis traffic -generating
element. We do not expect to have any more or less bus traffic than any other resort project of a
similar size and operational characteristics.

' hard data available for analysis. We have done the best we can in an effort to quantify this aspect
of our proposed hotel. Should you have any questions on this analysis or require any additional
information, please do not hesitate to call meat (619) 539-7610.

Air Quality Analysis for Newport Dunes Hotel
City of Newport Beach
1.0 EXISTING AIR QUALITY
The proposed Newport Dunes Hotel comprises approximately 700,000 square feet of interior
' facilities. The hotel is a full service destination resort which involves 600 units. The proposed
project includes: swimming pools, health, fitness and recreation facilities, children's facilities,
dining areas, ballrooms and meeting rooms, retail space, parking garages and landscaped garden
areas. As an alternative to the 600-room hotel, 400-room hotel and 100 timeshare units are
considered for this resort. This air quality report will assess emissions for the 600-room hotel as
the "worst case" impact.
The proposed project also involves the displacement of the existing trailer and recreational
vehicle storage area. However, approximately 256 recreational vehicle spaces will be retained
' after the development of the project.
The proposed project site is within the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB) and thus is subject to a
review with respect to the South Coast Air Quality Management District's (SCAQMD) Air
Quality Management Plan (AQMP). The SCAB comprises all of Orange County and the non -
desert portions of Los Angeles, Orange and San Bernardino Counties.
1.1 Climate
' The climate in and around the project area, as with all of Southern California, is controlled
largely by the strength and position of the subtropical high pressure cell over the Pacific Ocean.
' It maintains moderate temperatures and comfortable humidities, and limits precipitation to a few
storms during the winter "wet" season. Temperatures are normally mild, excepting the summer
months, which commonly bring substantially higher temperatures during the summer months. In
all portions of the basin, temperatures well above 100 degrees F. have been recorded in recent
years. The annual average temperature in the basin is approximately 62 degrees F.
' Winds in the project area are usually driven by the dominant land/sea breeze circulation system.
Regional wind patterns are dominated by daytime onshore sea breezes. At night the wind
generally slows and reverses direction traveling towards the sea. Wind direction will be altered
' by local canyons, with wind tending to flow parallel to the canyons. During the transition period
from one wind pattern to the other, the dominant wind direction rotates into the south and causes
a minor wind direction maximum from the south. The frequency of calm winds (less than 2 miles
' per hour) is less than 10 percent. Therefore, there is little stagnation in the project vicinity,
especially during busy daytime traffic hours.

Southern California frequently has temperature inversions which inhibit the dispersion of
pollutants. Inversions may be either ground based or elevated. Ground based inversions,
sometimes referred to as radiation inversions, are most severe during clear, cold, early winter
mornings. Under conditions of a ground based inversion, very little mixing or turbulence occurs,
and high concentrations of primary pollutants may occur local to major roadways. Elevated '.
inversions can be generated by a variety of meteorological phenomena. Elevated inversions act
as a lid or upper boundary and restrict vertical mixing. Below the elevated inversion dispersion is
not restricted. Mixing heights for elevated inversions are lower in the summer and more
persistent. This low summer inversion puts a lid over the SCAB and is responsible for the high
levels of ozone observed during summer months in the air basin. '
1.2 Air Quality Management I
The proposed project is located in the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB) and, jurisdictionally, is the
responsibility of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) and to a lesser
extent, the California Air Resources Board (CARE). The SCAQMD sets and enforces
regulations for stationary sources in the basin and develops and implements Transportation
Control Measures. The CARB is charged with controlling motor vehicle emissions. CARB '
establishes legal emission rates for new vehicles and is responsible for the vehicle inspection
program. Other important agencies in the air quality management for the basin include the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Southern California Association of
Governments (SCAG). The EPA implements the provisions of the federal Clean Air Act. This
act establishes ambient air quality standards that are applicable nationwide. In areas that are not
achieving the standards the Clean Air Act requires that plans be developed and implemented to
meet the standards. The EPA oversees the efforts in this air basin and insures that appropriate
plans are being developed and implemented. The primary agencies responsible for writing the
plan are SCAG and the SCAQMD, and the plan is called the Air Quality Management Plan ,
(AQMP).
SCAQMD and SCAG, in coordination with local governments and the private sector, have
'
developed the Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) for the air basin. The AQMP is the most
important air management document for the basin because it provides the blueprint for meeting
state and federal ambient air quality standards. The 1997 AQMP was adopted locally on
November 8, 1996, by the governing board of the SCAQMD. CARB has amended the 1997
AQMP and has submitted it to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as part of the
California State Implementation Plan. The document needs to be reviewed and approved by the
'
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). State law mandates the revision of the AQMP at
least every three years, and federal law specifies dates certain for developing attainment plans for
criteria pollutants. The 1997 AQMP supersedes the 1994 AQMP revision that was adopted
'
locally by the SCAQMD in November 1996. The 1997 revision to the AQMP was adopted in
response to the requirements set forth in the California Clean Air Act (CCAA) and the 1990
amendments to the Federal Clean Air Act (CAA). The 1997 AQMP has been submitted to the
'
EPA in 1997, but is yet to be adopted by the EPA. The 1997 PM10 attainment demonstration SIP
has also been submitted to the EPA.

The SCAB has been designated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a non -
attainment area for ozone, carbon monoxide, and suspended particulates. Nitrogen dioxide.in the
SCAB has met the federal standards for the third year in a row, and therefore, is qualified for
' redesignation to attainment. A maintenance plan for nitrogen dioxide is included in the 1997
AQMP. The CCAA mandates the implementation of the program that will achieve the
California Ambient Air Quality Standards (CAAQS) and the CAA mandates the implementation
of new air quality performance standards.
Attainments of all federal PM10 health standards are to be achieved. by December 31, 2006, and
ozone standards are to be achieved by November 15, 2010. For CO, the deadline is December.
31, 2000.
The overall control strategy for the AQMP is to meet applicable state and federal requirements
and to demonstrate attainment with ambient air quality standards. The 1997 AQMP uses two
tiers of emission reduction measures; (1) short- and intermediate -term measures, and (2) long-
term, measures.
Short- and intermediate -term measures propose the application of available technologies and
management practices between 1994 and the year 2005. These measures rely on known
technologies and proposed actions to be taken by several agencies that currently have statutory
authority to implement such measures. Short- and intermediate -term measures in the 1997
AQMP include 35 stationary source, 7 on -road, 6 off -road, 1 transportation control and indirect
source, 5 advanced transportation technology, and 1 further study measures. All of these
measures are proposed to be implemented between 1995 and 2005. These measures rely on both
traditional command and control and on alternative approaches to implement technological
solutions and control measures.
To ultimately achieve ambient air quality standards, additional emission reductions will be
necessary beyond the implementation of short- and intermediate -term in Long-term
measures rely on the advancement of technologies and control methods that can reasonably be
' expected to occur between 1997 and 2010. These long-term measures rely of further
development and refinement of known low- and zero -emission control technologies for both
mobile and stationary sources, along with technological breakthroughs.
1.3 Monitored Air Quality
1 Air quality at any site is dependent on the regional air quality and local pollutant sources.
Regional air quality is determined by the release of pollutants throughout the air basin. Estimates
for the SCAB have been made for existing emissions ("1997 Air Quality Management Plan",
October 1996). The data indicate that mobile sources are the major source of regional emissions.
Motor vehicles (i.e., on -road mobile sources) account for approximately 51 percent of volatile
organic compounds (VOC), 63 percent of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, and approximately 78
percent of carbon monoxide (CO) emissions.

The project site is closest to the SCAQMD Source Receptor Area 18 (North Coast Orange
County). The data collected at this station are considered to be representative of the air quality
experienced in the vicinity of the project area. The monitored air quality at Receptor Area 18 is
available for ozone, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and sulfur dioxide (SO2).
The next representative source receptor is the Central Orange County station. PM10 data are
available at this station. The monitored air quality data, from 1995 to 1997, for these pollutants
are shown in Tables I and 2.

** PM10 samples were collected every 6 day.
The percentages refer to the
percent of samples exceeding the standard and not
the number of days per year
that the standard was exceeded.
According to monitoring data presented in Table 1, ozone is the air pollutant of primary concern
in the project area. The state ozone standard was exceeded 9 days in 1997, 1 day in 1996, and 3
days in 1995. This shows that ozone levels had consistently exceeded the state standards. Ozone
is a secondary pollutant; it is not directly emitted. Ozone is the result of chemical reactions
between other pollutants, most importantly hydrocarbons and NO2, which occur only in the
presence of bright sunlight. Pollutants emitted from upwind cities react during transport
downwind to produce the oxidant concentrations experienced in the area. Many areas of the
SCAQMD contribute to the ozone levels experienced at the monitoring station, with the more
significant areas being those directly upwind.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is another important pollutant that is due mainly to motor vehicles. The
data indicate that CO levels currently comply with the state and federal 1-hour and 8-hour
standards. In general, high levels of CO commonly occur near major roadways and freeways.
CO may potentially be a continual problem in the future for areas next to freeways and other
majorroadways.
The air quality in Table 2 shows that the state standards for PM10 have consistently exceeded.
' The state standards were exceeded for approximately 18 percent of the samples measured in
1997, approximately 10 percent of the samples measured in 1996, and approximately 23 percent
of the samples measured in 1995. The trend shows that PM10 levels of exceedances have
slightly decreased, in the last three years. PM10 levels in the area are normally due to natural
sources, grading operations and motor vehicles.
According to the EPA, some people are much more sensitive than others to breathing fine
particles (PM10). People with influenza, chronic respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, and
the elderly may suffer worsening illness and premature death due to breathing these fine
' particles. People with bronchitis can expect aggravated symptoms from breathing in fine

particles. Children may experience decline in lung function due to breathing in PM10. Other
groups considered sensitive are smokers and people who cannot breathe well through their noses.
Exercising athletes are also considered sensitive, because many breathe through their mouths.
As can be seen in Tables 1 and 2, other than ozone andPM10 exceedances as mentioned above, t
no state or federal standards were exceeded for the remaining criteria pollutants.
1.4 Local Air Quality
1.4.1 Introduction and Criteria '
Local air quality is a major concern along roadways. Carbon monoxide is a primary pollutant.
Unlike ozone, carbon monoxide is directly emitted from a variety of sources. The most notable
source of carbon monoxide is motor vehicles. For this reason, carbon monoxide concentrations
are usually indicative of the local air quality generated by a roadway network and are used to
assess its impacts on the local air quality. Comparisons of levels with state and federal carbon
monoxide standards indicate the severity of the existing concentrations for receptors in the
project area. The Federal and State standards for carbon monoxide are presented in Table 3. 1
Table 3
Federal and State Carbon Monoxide Standards
Averaging Time Standard 11
Federal 1 hour 35 ppm
8 hours 9 ppm
State I hour 20 ppm
8 hours 9 ppm
Carbon monoxide levels in the project vicinity due to nearby roadways were assessed with the
CALINE4 computer model. CALINE4 is a fourth generation line source air quality model
developed by the California Department of Transportation ("CALINE4," Report No.
FHWA/CA/TL-84/15, June 1989). The precise methodology used in modeling existing air
quality with the CALINE4 computer model is discussed in more detail in Section 2.2 (Local Air
Quality Impacts.) The remainder of this section discusses the resulting existing carbon monoxide
levels in comparison to the State and Federal carbon monoxide standards.
The results of the CALINE4 CO computer modeling for the existing conditions are shown in
Table 4. The CALINE4 modeling was conducted for 3 representative receptor locations in the

project area. Receptor site 1 is located on the south corner of the Pacific Coast Highway
(PCH)/MacArthur Boulevard intersection. Receptor site 2 is located on -site, on the northwest
corner of the PCH/Jamboree Road intersection. Receptor site 3 is located on the northeast comer
1 of the Ford Road/Jamboree Road intersection. These receptors are located approximately 25 feet
from the intersections. The receptor locations are shown in Exhibit 1.
The existing background CO concentrations used in the analysis were obtained from the April
1993 CEQA Air Quality Handbook. (The April 1993• CEQA Air Quality Handbook is the latest
available source.) The Costa Mesa station is the nearest air quality monitoring station to the
project site, and therefore, the existing 1998 background CO concentrations are taken from this
station. The existing background CO concentrations are 8.9 ppm for 1 hour, and 7.1 ppm for 8
hour, and will be added to the CO modeling levels.
The existing traffic data were provided in the traffic study prepared by WPA Traffic
Engineering, Inc., November 12, 1998. The results of the existing CO levels are presented in
Table 4.

background CO concentration levels.
2.0 POTENTIAL AIR QUALITY IMPACTS DUE TO THE PROJECT
' Air quality impacts are usually divided into short term and long term. Short term impacts are
usually the result of construction or grading operations. Long term impacts are associated with
the built -out condition of the proposed project.
2.1 Short Term Impacts
The Newport Dunes Hotel project site comprises approximately 30 acres. The grading of the site
is anticipated to take six weeks, with an additional 12 to 15 months for the project construction.
The analysis will be based on the worst case assumption which is a 15 month construction phase.
Temporary impacts will result from project construction activities. Air pollutants will be emitted
by construction equipment and fugitive dust will be generated during grading and site
preparation. Construction activities for large development projects are estimated by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (according to the 1993 CEQA Handbook, emission factor for
disturbed soil is 26.4 pounds of PM10 per day per acre). If water or other soil stabilizers are used
to control dust as required by SCAQMD Rule 403, the emissions can be reduced by 50 percent.
Applying the above factors of 30 acres, a 6 week grading cycle, and a maximum 15 month build -
out construction phase, the total PM10 emission is estimated to be approximately 7.13 tons per
year. The above estimate represents a worst case annualized estimate of the PM10 emissions
generated. However, the grading of the project will occur in one phase. Therefore, during the six
week grading phase, the project is projected to generate a peak PM10 emission of 391 pounds
per day.
' The peak emission of 391 pounds per day of PM10 generated by the grading of the project is
minor when compared with the total average annual of 416 tons per day of particulate matter
currently released in the whole South Coast Air Basin (SCAB). According to the SCAQMD's
CEQA Handbook, PM10 emissions greater than 150 pounds per day should be considered
significant. PM10 emission due to the construction activities is projected to be greater than this
threshold, and therefore, is considered to be significant.
' It should be noted that the impact due to grading is very localized. Additionally, this material is
inert silicates, rather than the complex organic particulate matter released from combustion
sources which are more harmful to health. In some cases grading may be near existing
development. Care should be taken to minimize the generation of dust. Common practice for
minimizing dust generation is watering before and during grading. Without watering, PM10
emission generation would be double the amount mentioned previously (2 x 7 tons/year = 14
tons/year). Additional mitigation measures are proposed in Section 3.0.
r

Heavy-duty equipment emissions are difficult to quantify because of day to day variability in
construction activities and equipment used. Typical emission rates for construction equipment
were obtained from the SCAQMD Air Quality Handbook. For a project of this size, 12 pieces of
heavy equipment may be expected to operate at one time. The number of pieces of equipment
assumed included 2 scrapers, 2 tractors, 2 graders, 2 dozers, 1 water truck, and 3 miscellaneous
trucks. If all of the equipment operated for 8 hours per day the following emissions would
result: approximately 58 pounds per day of carbon monoxide, 9 pounds per day of ROG, 157
pounds per day of nitrogen oxides, 20 pounds per day of PM10, and 21 pounds per day of sulfur
oxides. There will also be some emissions generated by construction workers travel to and from
the job site. However, information is not available to project these emissions, and they are
usually small in comparison to the other construction emissions.
Note that some of the pollutant emissions are greater than the Significance Emission Thresholds
established by the SCAQMD in the CEQA Air Quality Handbook, and therefore, the project
construction emissions, specifically PM10 emissions are -considered to be significant. Therefore,
mitigation measures are recommended for the construction activities of the project to minimize
fugitive dust emissions. The mitigation measures are provided in Section S.O. The construction
emission data are summarized in Table 5. The data used to calculate the construction emissions
are provided in the appendix.

2.2 Long Term Impacts - Local Air Quality
Because the project will introduce changes in traffic on the roadways serving the project, a
detailed analysis of carbon monoxide concentrations at sensitive areas in the project vicinity was
conducted.
' 2.2.1.Methodology
Carbon monoxide (CO) is the pollutant of major concern along roadways because the most
notable source of carbon monoxide is motor vehicles. For this reason carbon monoxide
concentrations are usually indicative of the local air quality generated by a roadway network, and
' are used as an indicator of its impacts on local air quality. Local air quality impacts can be
assessed by comparing future carbon monoxide levels with State and Federal carbon monoxide
standards moreover by comparing future CO concentrations with and without the project. The
Federal and State standards for carbon monoxide were presented earlier in Table 3.
Future carbon monoxide concentrations with the project were forecasted using the CALINE4
computer model. CALINE4 is a fourth generation line source air quality model developed by the
California Department of Transportation ("CALINE4," Report No. FHWA/CA/TL-84/15, June
1989). The purpose of the modeling is to forecast air quality impacts near transportation facilities
in what is known as the microscale region. The microscale region encompasses the region of a
few thousand feet around the pollutant source. Given source strength, meteorology, site
geometry, and site characteristics, the model can reliably predict pollutant concentrations.
Worst case meteorology was assessed. Specifically, a late afternoon winter period with a ground
based inversion'was considered. For worst case meteorological conditions, a wind speed of 0.5
meter per second (1 mph) and a stability class G was utilized for a 1 hour averaging time.
Stability class G is the worst case scenario for the most turbulent atmospheric conditions. A
worst case wind direction for each site was determined by the CALINE4 Model. A sigma theta
of 10 degrees was also used and represents the fluctuation of wind direction. A high sigma theta
number would represent a very changeable wind direction. The temperature used for worst case
was 50 degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature affects the dispersion pattern and emission rates of
the motor vehicles. The temperature represents the January mean minimum temperature as
reported by Caltrans. The wind speed, stability class, sigma theta, and temperature data used for
the modeling are those recommended in the "Development of Worst Case Meteorology Criteria,"
(California Department of Transportation, June 1989). A mixing height of 1,000 meters was used
as recommended in the CALINE4 Manual. A surface roughness of the ground in the area, 100
centimeters, was utilized and is'based on the CALINE4 Manual. It should be noted that the
Iresults are also dependent on the speeds of the vehicles utilized in the model.
Emission factors for the arterials used in the CALINE4 computer model were obtained from the
Air Resources Board (ARB). The most updated emission factors, version MVEI7G, were used
in the CALINE4 computer modeling.
Mestre Greve Associates
Air Quallity Assessment for Newport Dunes Hotel
Page 11
The traffic data were provided by WPA Traffic Engineering, Inc., November 12, 1998. The
primary data used in the CALINE4 computer modeling are the peak hour volumes. The p.m.
peak hour traffic was utilized for the CALINE4 computer modeling as the worst case scenario,
since the p.m. peak hour traffic is generally higher than the a.m, peak hour.
The level -of -service data at the intersections were also used. The level -of -service data are
important in the CALM4 computer modeling in that they determine the speeds used. The
speeds used in turn determine the emission factors. The lower the speeds, the higher the
emission factors, hence, the higher the CO results.
The projected eight hour carbon monoxide levels were based on the Caltrans methodology
described in their "Air Quality Technical Analysis Notes." The method essentially uses a
persistence factor which is multiplied times the 1 hour emission projections. The projected 8
hour ambient concentration is then added to the product. The persistence factor can be estimated
using the highest ratio of 8-hour to 1-hour second annual maximum carbon monoxide
concentrations from the most recent three years that data is available. Forthe proposed project, a
persistence factor of 0.7 was used.
Generally, the 1-hour CO level is considered the peak maximum CO level since it is the highest
CO measured for an hour. According to the Caltrans Air Quality Technical Analysis Notes,
changes in meteorology and traffic over time disperse the CO concentration levels and cause it to
be less severe. Therefore, it is highly unlikely that the 1-hour CO levels would persist for a full
eight hours. As a result, a 1-hour CO level is generally considered to be the peak level and is
usually higher than an 8-hour CO level.
The CALINE4 computer modeling for the buildout year (2002) of the project are shown in Table
6. The CALINE4 modeling was conducted for three receptor locations: Receptor site 1 is located
on the south corner of the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH)/McArthur Boulevard intersection.
Receptor site 2 is located on -site, on the northwest corner of the PCH/Jamboree Road
intersection. Receptor site 3 is located on the northeast corner of the Ford Road/Jamboree Road
intersection. These receptors are located approximately 25 feet from the intersections. The
receptor locations used for the future CO modeling are essentially the same receptor locations as
the existing CO modeling in Section 1.4.
The future ambient (background) CO concentration levels were based on the 1993 CEQA
Handbook. The future projected ambient CO levels, however, are available up to year 2000. It
is assumed that the background CO levels for year 2000 are the same as year 2002. This can be
considered to be the worst case scenario, since the background CO levels are projected to
decrease steadily in the future year. This means that the 2002 background CO levels will be
slightly less than the 2000 background CO levels. The future background levels used in the
analysis are from the Costa Mesa monitoring station, and they are 7.3 ppm for CO 1-hour level,
and 5.8 ppm for 8-hour CO level. (The CALINE4 modeling results are provided in the appendix.
However, the CALINE4 CO emissions do not include the ambient CO levels).

2.2.2 Carbon Monoxide (CO) Modeling Results
The results of the CALINE4 CO modeling for the future year 2002 are summarized in Table 6.
The CO modeling results are shown for the 1-hour and 8-hour CO concentration levels. The
pollutant levels are expressed in parts per million (ppm) for each receptor. The carbon monoxide
levels reported in Table 6 are the composites of the background levels of carbon monoxide
coming into the area plus those generated by the local roadways.

NOTE: The CO concentrations include the ambient concentrations of 7.3 ppm for 1-hour

levels, and 5.8 ppm for 8-hour levels.
The future CO results in Table 6 are shown for the future no project and future with the project
' scenarios. The future no project CO levels are projected to be between 9.9 and 15.4 ppm for 1-
hour, and between 7.6 and 11.5 ppm for 8-hour. The future with project CO levels are projected
to be between 10.0 and 15.4 ppm for 1-hour, and between 7.7 and 11.5 ppm for 8-hour.
It should be noted that the CO levels for the future no project and future with project scenarios
include improvements at the Ford Road/Jamboree Road intersection. The roadway improvement
is a City planned improvement of an eastbound free right turn lane which is to be implemented in
the next four years.
' The future CO levels for both future scenarios are projected to comply with the 1-hour CO State
and federal standards at all three receptor locations. However, the 8-hour CO levels are
' projected to be exceeded at Receptor location 3. This is due to the high congestion level at Ford
I

Road/Jamboree Road. Without the roadway improvement, this intersection would experience a
"level -of -service" E. With the improvement, the congestion level would be improved to a
"level -of -service" D.
The CO concentration levels for the future with project are compared with the future no project
CO levels. The future CO levels with the project are projected to be slightly higher with respect
to no project. The CO levels are projected to be increased by an average of 0.1 ppm for 1-hour
and 8-hour due to the proposed project.
According to the CEQA Handbook, a measurable increase is defined as 1 ppm for the 1-hour
standard, and 0.45 ppm for the 8 hour standard (which is consistent with District Regulation XZ
definition of a significant impact). For areas with background concentrations already exceed the
state 1-hour and 8-hour CO standards, any increase above the measurable increase is considered
"likely to increase the frequency or severity of an existing CO violation". However, since the
CO increases due to the project is below the measurable increase (CO increase levels of 1 ppm
for 1-hour and 0.45 ppm for 8-hour), the proposed project is not considered to create a significant
air quality impact.
The future CO modeling results in Table 6 can also be compared with the existing CO levels
(Table 4). That is, the future with project CO concentration levels will essentially be lower than
the existing CO levels. In fact, the future CO concentration levels will be reduced by an average
of 1.6 ppm for 1-hour, and by an average of 1.3 ppm for 8-hour at the three receptor sites. This ,
is mainly due to the roadway improvement, and the decrease in the future background CO
concentration levels as well as the anticipated decrease in the future emission factors (version
MVEI70). In general, the background CO concentration and the emission factors are projected
to decrease steadily in the future years. The future contribution of the local traffic actually
increase due to increase in traffic, but is more than offset by the decrease bf background levels
and emission factors. I

2.3 Long Term Regional Air Quality
The main source of regional emissions generated by the proposed project will be from motor
vehicles. Other emissions will be generated from the combustion of natural gas for space heating
and the generation of electricity. Emissions will also be generated by the use of natural gas and
oil for the generation of electricity off -site.
2.3.1 Total Project Emissions
The total daily emissions will be assessed for the proposed project. The total daily emissions at
the project build out will be primarily due to vehicular emissions, and emissions due to on -site
' combustion of natural gas for space heating and water heating. Also, the generation of electrical
energy by the combustion of fossil fuels results in additional emissions off -site.
' Vehicular emissions will be the main sources of the project's daily emissions. Estimates were
made of the vehicular emissions that would be generated by the proposed project. The future
traffic data for the Newport Dunes Hotel project were provided by WPA Traffic Engineering,
Inc., November 12, 1998. The project is anticipated to generate 5,400 average daily trips (ADT),
of which 600 trips are from the existing RV spaces on -site. Therefore, the project will actually
generate a net ADT of 4,800. Based on the trip credits contained in the 1998 Settlement
Agreement for the Newport Dunes site, the proposed project will generate an additional 800
ADT that exceed what the site is entitled for.
' The average trip length for the proposed project is not known. According to the CEQA
Handbook, Table A9-5-D, the average trip length between the work and non -work trips in
Orange County (year 2010) is approximately 9 miles. Therefore, the 9 mile average trip length
will be used for the proposed project. The result shows that the product of 4,800 daily trips and a
9 mile trip length, translate to total vehicle miles traveled (VMT) of 43,200.
The most updated emission factors, version MVEI7G, were used in the vehicular emission
calculation. The MVE17G emission factors were obtained from the Air Resources Board (ARB).
The emission factors, at an average speed of 25 miles per hour, were used in the estimates.
Other emission sources that will be generated by the proposed project are on -site combustion of
natural gas for space heating and water heating, and off -site electrical usage. The data used to
estimate the on -site combustion of natural gas, and off -site electrical usage are based on the
proposed land uses in terms of dwelling units and square footages, and emission factors taken
from the 1993 CEQA Handbook. These data are also provided as technical data in the appendix.
The total emissions due to the project are presented in Table 7.

2.3.2 Diesel Truck Emissions
Based on the faxed letter on November 11, 1998, it is projected that between 15 and 20 vehicles
associated with the loading docks will access the project site daily, with only approximately 10%
are large trucks. This is equivalent to a maximum of two large trucks, or four trick trips per day.
The delivery trucks associated with the loading docks would involve stopping and starting the
engine, and will retrain on the site for brief periods of time. During the loading and unloading
activities, the truck engines will be turned off, and therefore, no idling will occur on the project
site.
The diesel truck fume, mainly CO emission, is of concern at the nearest residents, located just
south of the project site. It is difficult to quantify the amount of emissions from the four heavy
truck operations that are expected per day. However, it is projected that the truck emissions will
■
not be enough to be significant. For example, Jamboree Road is a major roadway Which has
much more auto and truck traffic, however, Table 6 shows that CO emissions along this roadway
are still under the state and federal standards. As a result, the emissions produce from the heavy
trucks on the project site are considered to be negligible.
2.3.3 Total Regional Emissions I
The main source of emissions generated by the proposed project will be from motor vehicles. ,
Other sources of emissions will be natural gas combustion for space heating, electrical
generation and various activities that are yet to be defined and quantified. Emissions for the
I

proposed project were calculated using methodology and emission factors contained in the
SCAQMD's CEQA Air Quality Handbook.
The Orange County emission data are available for year 2010 and are from the 1991 revisions to
the AQMP, and will be used to compare with the project's total emissions. (Because the 1997
AQMP does not have a break down in the emission data per individual county, the 1991 AQMP
county wide emissions are the best available data to use for comparison purposes.) The total net
emissions generated by the project are presented in the first line of Table 8, and are in pounds per
day. In addition, emissions due to the additional 800 project trips are shown in the second line
for comparison purposes.

NOTE: The underlined data indicate exceedance of the thresholds.
As can be seen in Table 8, on the regional basis, the proposed project will contribute
approximately 0.06 percent or less, when compared with the County emissions. The primary
source of the proposed project emissions will be from motor vehicles.
The results indicate that the project daily net emissions will exceed the SCAQMD's significance
thresholds for CO, ROG, and NOx. The project daily net emissions include the 800.additional
trips that were not a part of the settlement agreement. The results indicate that these additional
project trips would bring the project emissions over the significance thresholds for CO. Since
the project daily emissions will exceed the above emission significant thresholds, according to
the SCAQMD CEQA Handbook, the project is considered to be significant. Significant long-
term adverse impact upon the regional' air quality is projected due to the proposed project.
' Therefore, mitigation measures are recommended for long-term impacts.

Mestre Greve Associates

Page 17
The SCAB has been classified as a non -attainment air basin for compliance with the Federal
Clean Air Act. The project's long-term impacts will be significant, and will contribute
incrementally to a cumulatively significant adverse impact.
2.3.4 Cumulative Air Quality Impacts
The local air quality emissions were analyzed in Section 2.2.2 for the future with project scenario
and included cumulative air quality impacts. These cumulative CO emissions include existing
traffic, regional growth, and approved/committed projects including the proposed project.
The regional emissions for the proposed project were analyzed in Section 2.3.3, and were based
on the project trip generations. However, the cumulative trip generations in the area were not
provided in the traffic study, and therefore, cumulative impacts on a regional basis were not
analyzed.
2.4 Compliance with Air Quality Planning
The following sections deal with the major air planning requirements for this project.
Specifically, consistency of the project with the AQMP is addressed. As discussed below,
consistency with the AQMP is a requirement of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA).
2.4.1 Consistency with AQ11xI'
An EIR must discuss any inconsistencies between the proposed project and applicable general
plans and regional plans (California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines (Section
15125)). Regional plans that apply to the proposed project include the South Coast Air Quality
Management Plan (AQMP). In this regard, this section will discuss any inconsistencies between
the proposed project with the AQMP.
The purpose of the consistency discussion is to set forth the issues regarding consistency with the
assumptions and objectives of the AQMP and discuss whether the project would interfere with
the region's ability to comply with federal and state air quality standards. If the decision -maker
determine that the project is inconsistent the lead agency may consider project modifications or
inclusion of mitigation to eliminate the inconsistency.
The SCAQMD's CEQA Handbook states that "New or amended General Plan Elements
(including land use zoning and density amendments), Specific plans, and significant projects
must be analyzed for consistency with the AQW" Strict consistency with all aspects of the plan
is usually not required. A proposed project should be considered to be consistent with the plan if
it furthers one or more policies and does not obstruct other policies. The Handbook identifies two
key indicators of consistency:
Mestre Greve Associates
Air Quallity Assessment for Newport Dunes Hotel
Page 18
(1) Whether the project will result in an increase in the frequency or severity of
existing air quality violations or cause or contribute to new violations, or delay
timely attainment of air quality standards or the interim emission reductions
specified in the AQMP (except as provided for CO in Section 9.4 for relocating
rCO hot spots).
(2) Whether the project will exceed the assumptions in the AQMP in 2010 or
increments based on the year of project buildout and phase.
Both of these criteria are evaluated in the following sections.
' Criterion 1- Increase in the Frequency or Severity of Violations?
Based on the air quality modeling analysis contained in this report, it is expected that there will
' be short-term construction impacts for the proposed project. It is unlikely that short-term
construction activities will increase the frequency or severity of existing air quality violations
due to required compliance with SCAQMD Rules and Regulations, but emissions will be
generated in excess of SCAQMD's threshold criteria (refer to Section 2.1).
The proposed project, by itself, will increase regional emissions, and will increase regional
emissions by an amount greater than the SCAQMD thresholds (Refer to Section 2.3.3). The
proposed project will contribute incrementally to the local air quality when compared to no
project, however, the amount is not considered to be significant. The future CO concentration
levels with the project are projected to comply with the 1-hour State and Federal standards.
However, the future 8-hour CO levels are projected to exceed the standards whether the
proposed project will take place or not. ". However, since the CO increases due to the project is
' below the measurable CO increase levels of 1 ppm for 1-hour and 0.45 ppm for 8-hour, the
proposed project is not considered to create a significant air quality impact. Therefore, the
project is found to be consistent with the AQMP for the first criterion.
I
Criterion 2 - Exceed Assumptions in the AQW?
Consistency with the AQMP assumptions is determined by performing an analysis of the project
with the assumptions in the AQMP. Thus, the emphasis of this criterion is to insure that the
' analyses conducted for the project are based on the same forecasts as the AQMP. The Regional
Comprehensive Plan and Guide (RCP&G) consists of three sections: Core Chapters, Ancillary
Chapters, and Bridge Chapters. The Growth Management, Regional Mobility, Air Quality, Water
' Quality, and Hazardous Waste Management chapters constitute the Core Chapters of the
document. These chapters currently respond directly to federal and state requirements placed on
SCAG. Local governments are required to use these as the basis of their plans for purposes of
consistency with applicable regional plans under CEQA.
Since the SCAG forecasts are not detailed, the test for consistency of this project is not specific.
The traffic modeling upon which much of the air quality assessment is based on is the Trip
Mestre Greve Associates
Air Quallity Assessment for Newport Dunes Hotel
Page 19
Generation, 6a' Edition, from Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). The traffic modeling
is also in conformance with the City of Newport Beach Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO). The
traffic modeling has growth projections at year 2002, at which is the project's buildout year. The
future traffic growth projections include approved projects to be constructed around year 2002.
It appears that the growth forecasts for the project, at the project's buildout year, are consistent
with the SCAG growth forecasts. The forecasts made for the project EIR seem to be based on the
same demographics as the AQMP, and therefore, the second criterion is met for consistency with
the AQMP.
Inclusion of AQMP Measures
The 1997 AQMP lists strategies designed to improve air quality throughout the region. These
measures examine solutions to regional air quality concerns. A two tiered approach is -used in the
1997 AQMP. The first is, short- and medium -term measures that will utilize existing technology.
The second tier is long-term measures that will rely on new technology. Each tier then contains
several control measures intended to reduce emissions from specific sources or activities
including stationary sources, transportation related and land use related sources, area sources,
mobile sources, and off -road mobile sources.
The project emissions will be greater than the thresholds of significance. Therefore, to be
consistent with the AQMP, long term mitigation measures are recommended to reduce
emissions, and these mitigation measures are described in Section 3.2.

3.0 MITIGATION MEASURES
Mitigation measures are required for the project to reduce emissions for short-term and long-
term impacts. Short-term impacts are associated with construction emissions, while long-term
impacts are associated with local and regional emissions. The mitigation measures provided in
the following sections are recommended by the SCAQMD. These mitigation measures were
obtained from the AQMP (Chapter 4 and Chapter 7), the CEQA Air Quality Handbook (Chapter
11), and the Rule and Regulations prepared by the SCAQMD. Also, the City of Newport
Beach's Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Ordinance, Chapter 20.64, is incorporated.
3.1 Construction Impacts - Short Term
3.1.1 Recommended Mitigation
' The following SCAQMD mitigation measures are required to reduce pollutant emissions from
construction activities. These measures shall be implemented by the construction operators.
Note that none of these recommended mitigation measures are strictly required but SCAOMD
wants to see all relevant measures applied. Some of the required measures for general
development projects are also mentioned below. The measures are presented below with a
quantification of the measure, if such a quantification is possible.

recommended, although quantification of the measure's benefits is not really possible. Emission
rates are necessary to determine the emissions of any vehicle. At present, the most reliable rates
that are available for construction equipment are those provided by the SCAQMD in the April
1993 CEQA Air Quality Handbook. Emissions from construction equipment can only be
quantified by use of these emission rates. Because no emission rates for "low emission" mobile
construction vehicles are available, the air quality benefit of the use of such equipment can not
be quantified.
Mitigation 2: Water site and clean equipment morning and eveningto o comply with the AOMP
Futaitive Dust Measures BCM-03 and BCM-06. As these are not optional mitigation measures,
but a SCAQMD requirement, this reduction should be, and is, already included in the particulate
emission projections in this report. As part of the conditions of grading permit approval, the
project shall water the construction site and unpaved haul roads (with use of reclaimed water or
chemical soil binder, where feasible) twice daily.
BCM-01. This measure is already required by the SCAQMD. This measure returns to the issue
of SCAQMD Rule 403 which requires the "removal of particulate matter from equipment prior
to movement on paved streets" to control particulate emissions. As part of the conditions of
grading permit approval, the project will wheel wash construction equipment and cover dirt in
trucks during on -road hauling. This measure is already included in the particulate emission
projections in the report. Haul trucks leaving the site also are required to have a minimum
freeboard distance of 12", or to cover payloads.

Data to estimate emissions from vehicles traveling upon unpaved roads are unavailable, so there
is no way to specifically quantify the amount of emissions reductions from this measure. A
reduction in travel speeds to 15 miles per hour on unpaved road surfaces normally reduces
particulate emissions from this activity by approximately 40% to 70%.

measure would, of course, almost entirely eliminate emissions from the heavy equipment used in
grading activities.

in the project as part of the conditions of grading permit approval.
Mitigation 11: Maintain construction equipment engines by keeping them tuned. Its purpose is
to ensure that the air quality impacts that are generated by construction activities associated with
the project are consistent with the impacts that are projected in the air quality report. The
emissions data in the air quality report are based upon emission rates for equipment that has been
properly maintained. If the actual equipment used during the project's construction is not
properly maintained, the emissions produced by that equipment would exceed the projected
emissions. This measure, when it is complied with, merely helps to ensure that emissions during
the projects construction will not exceed the projected emissions.
Mitigation 12: Use low sulfur fuel for stationary construction equipment. This is already required
by SCAQMD Rules 431.1 and 431.2. Unfortunately, no means of calculating the benefits of such
a measure currently exist. The use of low sulfur fuel would reduce emissions of pollutants
(particularly sulfur oxides) in the vicinity of the project, but by an unquantifiable amount.

' Mitigation 13: Utilize existing power sources (e.g., power poles) or clean fuel generators rather
than temporary power generators. In order to quantify these measures, specific information is
required, including, but not limited to, how much power would be needed, how it would be
supplied in the absence of this measure, and how it would be supplied with the implementation
of this measure. Without such information, quantification of the air quality benefits of these
measures is not possible.
Mitigation 14• Provide on -site power sources during the early stages of the project. This
measure is recommended although its benefits are not quantifiable without specific information
as to how it would be implemented. The intent of this measure is to minimize or eliminate the
use of portable generators.
' Mitigation 15: Use low emission on -site stationary equipment (e.g._ clean fuels). As stated
above, this measure overlaps with the previous measure. Information that is required to quantify
' the air quality benefit of this measure is not available. _ ^
'existing trees at the construction site. The idea that such a measure would have significant air
quality benefits is of dubious origin. Quantification of this suggested mitigation regarding air
quality impacts is clearly impossible. It is, of course, not feasible to determine the air quality
' benefit of any trees that might exist in a particular location. The quantification of the -,air quality
impacts of the removal of trees is similarly infeasible. Determining the air quality, benefit of
planting "replacement" trees is, as one would expect, infeasible also. The project plans contain a
significant amount of tree planting, more than trees that might be removed, and therefore, would
meet this measure.
1 3.1.2 Rejected Mitigation
The following measures are recommended for consideration by the SCAQMD, but have been
rejected because of inapplicability to this project or because they will have an improbable or
negative impact upon construction emissions. The measures are underlined in the following
paragraphs and the reasons for rejection follow each measure.
Configure construction parking to minimize traffic interference. This measure is recommended
' as it appears to have been borne out of good common sense. If completely effective, this practice
would entirely avoid the disruption of traffic flow. The measure seems to have been designed to
avoid creating an impact rather than mitigating an impact and is, therefore, unquantifiable.
Minimize obstruction of through -traffic lanes. As with the above measure, the measure seems to
have been designed to avoid creating an impact rather than mitigating an impact. It is
' recommended to follow such a guideline, where feasible, but the quantification of the air quality
benefits is not possible.

Provide a flagperson to properly guide traffic and ensure safety at construction sites. This
measure is recommended, but is related to air quality in only a very indirect way. Its air quality
benefits are indeterminable.
Schedule operations affecting traffic for off-peak hours, where feasible. The air quality benefits
are unquantifiable for the reason that quantification would require a determination of emissions

conditions where there is no traffic congestion (i.e., the successful implementation of this

activily during off-peak hours. If this measure is implemented, the timetable for the projeefs
construction period would be lengthened. This would probably reduce the amount of emissions
per day generated by the construction activities, but by an unquantifiable (and probably minimal)
amount. The total emissions generated by the construction of the project, however, would not be
reduced (and could, in fact, be increased). There is no ultimate benefit to the implementation of
this measure. This measure could, in fact, have a detrimental impact upon regional air quality
because lengthening construction periods will increase the likelihood that a greater number of
construction projects will occur simultaneously in the basin. If this is the case, emissions per day
from construction projects could be greater than under conditions where this measure is not
implemented. This measure in terms of the grading emissions is similar to the next measure.
Require a phased schedule for construction activities to minimize emissions This measure
would, presumably, extend the construction period which would, in turn, lessen the average daily
emissions from grading activities. It is impossible to determine the air quality benefit of such a
plan without specific details. Note that it is very possible that this measure could have no air
quality benefit or even a negative impact on air quality. A longer construction period could cause
a graded area to be left exposed to the effects of wind erosion for a longer period of time. As a
result, particulate emissions generatedby the project could increase overall. Also, additional
fossil fuel combustion emissions would probably occur from the implementation of this measure

' as construction personnel would have to make more trips to the site and watering trucks would
have to operate on the site for a lengthened period.
' Provide rideshare and transit incentives for construction personnel. The existence of incentives
does not guarantee any degree of acceptance of rideshare or transit programs. There is no way to
determine how successful such programs would be and it is, therefore, impossible to determine
' the air quality benefits of such incentives. This measure is already covered under SCAQMD
Rule 2202.

3.1.3 Construction Emissions after Mitigation Measures
In conclusion, the short-term construction emissions due to the proposed project with mitigation
measures will be reduced to an extent, however, the emissions would still be significant.
3.2 Regional Air Quality - Long Term
3.2.1 Recommended Mitigation
The most significant reductions in regional and local air pollutant emissions are attainable
through programs which reduce the vehicular travel associated with the project. Support and
compliance with the AQMP for the basin is the most important measure to achieve this goal. The
AQMP includes improvement of mass transit facilities and implementation of vehicular usage
reduction programs. Additionally, energy conservation measures are _included. None of these
recommended mitigation measures are strictly required by SCAQMD. However, SCAQMD
wants to see all relevant measures applied.
TDM Measures
Mitigation 17• Schedule truck deliveries and pickups during off-peak hour. This will alleviate
traffic congestion, therefore, emissions during the peak -hour. Peak -hour normally occurs
between 7 and 9 a.m. and between 4 and 6 p.m. Truck deliveries should be schedule outside
these hours, if feasible. This measure is consistent with City Code Section 20.64.040.A.

at heavily congested roadways. Again, the areas where this measure would be applicable are the
intersections in and near the project area, such as North Bayside Drive. Presumably, these
measures would improve traffic flow. Emissions would drop as a result of the higher traffic
speeds, but to an unknown extent. This measure is included in the project plan design.

Mitigation 20: Provide on -site services. Provide incentives such as on -site ATMs and other
similar measures that address lifestyle needs. These measures reduce the VMT, but the air
quality benefit can not be quantified because more specific data are required. This measure is
included in the project plan design.
Miti¢ation 21: Provide local shuttle and transit shelters. and ridematching services. This
measure is recommended, but no information is available regarding its effectiveness in
improving air quality. Such a program might reduce the VMT associated with the project. No
evidence is available that VMT will be reduced by any significant amount, however. This
measure is consistent with City Code Section 20.64.070.G,
Mitigation 22: Provide bicycle lanes, c-storage areas, and amenities. and ensure efficient parking
management. This measure includes implementing the formation of bike clubs and providing
additional bike racks, lockers, showers, bike repair areas, and loaner bikes. Also, provide lockers,
showers, safe walk path maps, walk clubs and free walking shoes. These measures are consistent
with City Code Sections 20.64.0703 and C. Theses measure are necessary, but no data are
available regarding the effectiveness of this package of measures. Quantification of air quality
benefits is not possible because of this fact.

roadways beyond the project limits are synchronized as well. The air quality benefits are

' comply with the AOMP Miscellaneous Sources MSC-01 measure. Light color roofing was
already specified in the project design, and therefore, would meet this measure. The trees to be
planted in the project would be more than the number of trees removed, and therefore, would
' meet the„MSC-01 measure. This measure reduces the need for cooling energy in the summer.
' Mitigation 29: Comply with the AOMP Nfiscellaneous Sources PRC-03 to reduce emissions of
restaurant operations. Introduce efficient heating and other appliances, such as water heaters,
cooking equipment, refrigerators, furnaces and boiler units. Also, incorporate appropriate
passive solar design, and solar heaters. This measure is intended to reduce VOC and PM10
emissions.
' 3.2.2 Rejected Local and Regional Air Quality Mitigation
' The following non -construction measures are recommended for consideration by the SCAQMD,
but have been rejected because of inapplicability to this project or because they will have an
improbable or negative impact upon non -construction emissions. The measures are underlined in
the following paragraphs and the reason or reasons for rejection follow each measure.
Landscape with native drought -resistant species to reduce water consumption and to provide
passive solar benefits. The connection between reducing water consumption and improving air
quality is non-existent in the context of this analysis. A measure designed to reduce water
consumption has no place in an air quality mitigation package. The assertion that such vegetation
would provide "passive solar benefits" is false because drought resistant vegetation lacks both
the height and the fullness to shade the building structures. No air quality benefit will occur as a
result of the implementation of this measure.
' Provide incentives for solid waste recycling. The connection between solid waste recycling and
air quality is a tenuous one at best. There will be no air quality benefit resulting from the
' encouragement or coercion to recycle solid waste
Install energy efficient street lighting, Implementation of this measure is not feasible because of
' varying definitions of the phrase "energy efficient."

3.2.3 Local Air Quality Impacts
The future CO emissions are projected to be in compliance with the 1-hour state standard.
However, the future 8-hour CO levels are projected to exceed the state standard. The future CO
emissions with the project will slightly increased with respect to no project. However, the
amount of increased CO emissions are not known.
3.2,4 Long-term Regional Impacts After Mitigation Measures
The construction emissions would be greater than the SCAQMD's significance thresholds,
however, the construction emissions would be short-term impacts. The project's long-term air
quality emissions with the mitigation measures, specifically CO, ROG and NOx, would be
reduced to an extent, but would still be significant, and would contribute incrementally to a
cumulatively significant adverse air quality impact

NEWPORT DUNES HOTEL PROJECT
City of Newport Beach
1.0 EXISTING NOISE
1.1 Introduction
' The purpose of this report is to determine the potential noise impact of the proposed Newport
Dunes Hotel project upon surrounding land uses. The project site is shown in Exhibit 1. The
proposed project involves a total of approximately 30 acres located on Upper Newport Bay, east
and south of Bayside Drive and north of Pacific Coast Highway. The Newport Dunes Hotel
project site is part of the larger Newport Dunes Resort or Redevelopment Area that comprises
approximately 100 acres on Upper Newport Bay.
' The proposed Newport Dunes Hotel involves a 600 unit, full service destination resort hotel
which will include: swimming pools; health, fitness and recreation facilities; children's facilities;
dining areas; ballrooms and meeting rooms; retail space; parking garages and landscaped
garden areas.
This document will determine the potential noise impacts of the proposed project and, if
necessary, will recommend mitigation to eliminate potentially significant impacts.
1.2 Reference Information on Noise and Noise Metrics
' Community noise is generally not steady state and varies with time. Under these conditions of
non -steady state noise, some type of statistical metric is necessary in order to quantify human
' response to noise. Several rating scales have been developed for the analysis of adverse effects
of community noise on people. They are designed to account for the above known effects of
noise on people.
Based on these effects, the observation has been made that the potential for a noise to impact
people is dependent on the total acoustical energy content of the noise. Upon this premise, a
number of noise scales have been developed. These scales include the Equivalent Norse Level
(LEQ) and the Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL). Both of these scales, or metrics,
are based upon the A -weighted decibel, which is abbreviated as dBA. The A -weighted decibel
compensates specific frequencies to match the way in which the human ear perceives them.
Most simply stated, dBA is a description of how people judge loudness.
LEQ is the sound level corresponding to a steady-state sound level containing the same total
energy as a time -varying signal over a given sample period. LEQ is the "energy" average noise
level. CNEL is similar to LEQ, but is measured over a period of 24 hours. The CNEL metric
applies a weighting factor which places greater significance on noise events occurring during
the evening and night hours (when sleep disturbance is a concern). Thus, CNEL is a 24-hour,
11

t Mestre Greve Associates

time -weighted annual average noise level. Time -weighted refers to the fact that noise which
occurs during certain sensitive time periods is penalized for occurring at these times. The
evening time period (7 p.m. to 10 p.m.) penalizes noises by 5 dB, while nighttime (10 p.m. to 7
a.m.) noises are penalized by 10 dB. The Noise Element for the City of Newport Beach
specifies outdoor and indoor noise limits for various land -uses. The exterior noise limit for
residential areas is 65 CNEL. The interior noise limit for residential areas is 45 CNEL.
1.3 Assessment Criteria
1.3.1 City of Newport Beach Noise Standards
' The Noise Standards primarily apply to traffic generated by the proposed project. The project
will generate additional traffic on roadways in the project vicinity. This additional traffic will, in
turn, generate additional noise that may adversely impacts existing sensitive land uses. In order
for the Newport Dunes Hotel project to have a significant adverse noise level impact on adjacent
land uses, three conditions must be met. The first condition is that the proposed project must
generate a noise level increase that is considered "significant." A significant noise increase is
defined as an increase of at least one to three decibels, depending upon the situation (more
information on this subject is contained in subsequent sections).
The second condition is that the noise increase must occur in a noise sensitive area. The
definition of a "noise sensitive area" can be somewhat complicated. Residential areas, parks,
hospitals, schools, and churches are typically considered "noise sensitive." A city's noise
standards are most commonly used to ensure that these types of land use are protected from
excessive noise.
The third condition that must be met for the project to be considered a significant adverse
impact is that noise levels in the sensitive receptor areas in the project vicinity exceed any of the
City of Newport Beach noise standards (or generally acknowledged standards) as a result of the
project's implementation. These three conditions must be met before the project can be declared
as a significant adverse impact. The City of Newport Beach exterior noise standard for
residential land use is 65 CNEL, and the interior noise standard for residential land use is 45
CNEL.
Note that the City of Newport Beach does not necessarily specify an exterior noise limit for
mobile home parks. The City's noise element specifies that exterior noise levels in mobile home
parks should be limited to a level such that the interior levels (due to exterior sources) should
not exceed 45 CNEL. The mobile homes in the park are assumed to have an exterior to interior
t noise attenuation of only about 15 dBA. Therefore, the exterior noise limit in the trailer park
would be effectively reduced to 60 CNEL. This exterior limit is not necessarily designed to
protect exterior areas; the intent of the standard is to insure that interior noise levels are less than
45 CNEL.
In addition to the noise standards for residential areas, the City has a interior noise standard of
50 CNEL for commercial office space (for the purposes of this study, the 50 CNEL interior
' standard for commercial office space will.also be applied to the proposed interior retail space
within the project site). These are the relevant standards for the proposed project.
1.3.2 City of Newport Beach Noise Ordinance
The project must also comply with the City of Newport Beach Noise Ordinance. While the
I
Noise Assessment for the Newport Dunes Project
Mestre Greve Associates
Page 3
CNEL noise limits apply to traffic generated by the project, the Noise Ordinance applies to
noise generated on the project site itself.
The Noise Ordinance for the City of Newport Beach establishes exterior noise standards for
residential areas. The ordinance is designed to protect residential areas from noise sources such
as parking lots, loading docks, etc., on adjacent private properties. Table 1 presents the City of
#'
Newport Beach's Noise Ordinance. The noise ordinance is designed to control noise from
stationary (non -transportation) sources at the residential property line. The noise ordinance
requirements can not be applied to mobile noise sources such as heavy trucks when traveling on
public roadways (control of the mobile noise sources on public roads is preempted by federal
and State laws). They can, however, be applied to heavy trucks when they are traveling on
private property, such as they do when they approach loading docks.
Community noise levels are measured in terms of the "A -weighted decibel," abbreviated dBA.
The City of Newport Beach Noise Control Regulations establish exterior A -weighted noise
criteria for non -transportation related noise which impacts adjacent properties. This criteria is
given in terms of Leq noise levels at the property boundary (measured for a 15-minute time
period). Greater noise levels are permitted during the day (7 a.m. to 10 p.m.) as compared to the
nighttime period (10 p.m. to 7 a.m.).

Note that the Newport Beach daytime limit for Leq and maximum levels is ordinarily 55 dBA
and 75 dBA, respectively. The ordinance contains a provision for residential property that is
located within 100 feet of commercial property. This provision raises the allowable noise limits
by 5 dBA in the daytime hours (but not in the nighttime hours). This provision applies to the
residential areas directly adjacent to the project.
IA Measured Noise Levels
Noise measurements were conducted as part of this analysis on November 13th, 1998. Two
sites were selected on the basis of proximity to the project site. The two measurement locations
are the nearest noise sensitive receptors to the project and, thus, will experience the largest
impacts attributable to the project and can be considered worst case examples of the project's
noise impacts. The two sites that were selected would potentially experience changes in ambient
noise as a result of the project's implementation. Noise sensitivity of the land use was also
considered when the sites were selected. Exhibit 2 shows the location of each site.

The noise measurements were conducted between the hours of 12 p.m. and 2 p.m.. The
measurement sites were selected on the basis of proximity to the project and of the noise
sensitivity of the land use. The measurement survey utilized the BrUel & Kimr 2260 automated
digital noise data acquisition system for short-term (15 min.) LEQ readings. This instrument
automatically calculates both the Equivalent Noise Level (LEQ) and Percent Noise Level (L%)
for any specific time period. The noise monitor was equipped with a BrUel & Kjmr 1/2-inch
electret microphone and was calibrated with a BrUel & Kjmr calibrator with calibrations
traceable to the National Bureau of Standards. Calibration for the calibrators are certified
through the duration of the measurements. This measurement system satisfies the ANSI
(American National Standards Institute) Standards 1.4 for Type 1 precision noise measurement
instrumentation.
The results of the ambient short-term noise measurements at each site are depicted in Table 2.
These figures also depict the date and time of the measurement and the primary noise source
affecting the noise environment. The quantities measured were the Equivalent Noise Level
(Leq), the maximum noise level (Lmax) and the Percent Noise Levels (L%).

During the measurements, the dominant source of noise was automobile traffic from local and
distant sources. Other noise sources included aircraft overflights from John Wayne Airport and
noise generated by people inside the existing Newport Dunes resort.
2.0 POTENTIAL IMPACTS
2.1 Construction Noise
Construction noise represents an impact on ambient noise levels surrounding the project area.
Noise generated by construction equipment, including trucks, graders, bulldozers, concrete
mixers and portable generators canreach high levels. Excavation and grading activities typically
represent the highest potentials for noise impacts. The degree of impacts will be dictated by the
amount of construction equipment used, the density of heavy equipment, the proximity to the
residential area, and the duration of the grading process. General grading and consnuction
activity noise levels for various pieces of equipment are shown in Exhibit 3.
The nearest existing residence to the Newport Dunes Hotel project is approximately 10 feet
away. The loudest piece of equipment that could be expected to operate would be equipment
used during the grading process (tractors and scrapers). These types of equipment typically
generate peak noise levels of approximately 96 dBA at 50 feet, The nearest residence is

approximately 10 feet from the project site, and thus, would be approximately 14 dBA louder
than the noise levels shown in Exhibit 3. Therefore, the loudest piece of equipment could
generate noise levels that would be approximately 110 dBA. Note that this noise exposure
would be very short-term as the equipment would stay in the same place for a short period of
time. Nevertheless, this noise level is very high and mitigation should be incorporated in the
construction of the project in order to minimize construction noise impacts.
The most effective method to control construction noise is through the institution of local
control over construction hours. Construction activities are prohibited by Section 10.28.040 of
the City of Newport Beach Municipal Code outside the hours of 7 a.m. through 6:30 p.m.,
Monday through Friday, and 8 am. through 6 p.m. on Saturdays. No construction should
occur on Sundays or Federal holidays.
2.2 Off -Site Traffic Noise
The future traffic data contained in this section was supplied by WPA Traffic Engineering, Inc.
This section details the change in traffic noise levels generated by the project. Note that the
following comparison of noise levels is based upon the difference between future conditions
with the project and future conditions without the project.
Table 3 shows the difference in noise levels along the roadways in the immediate project
vicinity. The table shows a noise level increase or decrease attributable to the project based upon
the PM peak hour traffic volumes supplied by WPA Traffic Engineering, Inc. The table shows
various roadway links in the project area and specifies a noise level difference for the specific
links.

The greatest noise level difference generated by the project occurs on Bayside Drive north of
'mil
Noise Assessment for the Newport Dunes Project
Mestre Greve Associates
Page 6
Pacific Coast Highway. This roadway is the entrance to the proposed project. Traffic noise
levels will increase 3.8 dBA as a result of the project's implementation. This is a potentially
significant noise level increase. In community noise assessment, changes in noise levels greater
than 3 dB are often identified as significant, while changes less than 1 dB will not be discernible
to local residents. In the range of 1 to 3 dB, residents who are very sensitive to noise may
perceive a slight change. Note that there is no scientific evidence available to support the use of
3 dB as the significance threshold. In laboratory testing situations, humans are able to detect
noise level changes of slightly less than 1 dB. In a community noise situation, however, noise
exposures are over a long time period, and changes in noise levels occur over years, rather than
the immediate comparison made in a laboratory situation. Therefore, the level at which changes
in community noise levels become discernible is likely to be some value greater than 1 dB, and
3 dB appears to.be appropriate for most people.
Despite the 3.8 dBA increase on Bayside north of Pacific Coast Highway, the project will not
actually generate a significant impact in noise levels on existing land uses. Under future
conditions with the implementation of the project, Bayside Drive (north of PCH) will experience
traffic volumes of only 9,300 vehicles per day. As stated in Section 1.3.1, the City of Newport
Beach exterior noise standard states that noise levels in the exterior areas of the mobile home
park must be such that the noise levels within the homes is less than 45 CNEL. Therefore, the
noise levels in the exterior areas within the park must be limited to 60 CNEL because the mobile
homes in the park will only reduce noise generated by exterior sources by approximately 15
dB. Table 3 shows the traffic noise contours for future conditions with and without the project.

noise level of 60 CNEL if they were standing 51 feet from the centerline of the roadway. For
future conditions with the project a person standing 91 feet from the same roadway would
experience a noise level of 60 CNEL. Exhibit 4 shows traffic noise contours for future
conditions with the project along Bayside Drive.
The contour distances shown in Table 3 indicate that the increase noise levels generated by
implementation of the project will cause exterior noise levels to exceed 60 CNEL which will, in
turn, cause interior noise levels within the trailer park to exceed 45 CNEL. Therefore, interior
noise levels may be as high as 49 to 50 CNEL. Mitigation should be designed for Bayside
Drive that will reduce traffic noise within the trailer park:
2.2 Off -Site Operational Impacts
This section examines the potential for the operations of the Newport Dunes Hotel project to
impact existing land uses near the project site. The existing residential area most likely to be
impacted by the proposed project is the Bayside Village Trailer Park. This trailer park is located
directly adjacent to the proposed project. This section will examine noise levels generated by the
project itself and will determine whether these operational noise levels will adversely impact
existing residential land uses.
2.2.1 Delivery Trucks
Delivery trucks will travel most commonly on the project site on the access road between the
main entrance and the loading dock.
Noise measurements were conducted previously at the Knott's Berry Farm loading dock. Truck
noise was measured for approximately 40 trucks as they entered and left the site, and a
maximum noise level noted for each arrival and departure. Noise measurements were also made
of the loading and unloading operations and the fork lifts. These measurements confirmed that
the truck arrival and departures were in fact the noise source of most concern. That is, the noise
levels associated with truck acceleration or deceleration or truck braking during arrival rind
departure are the loudest. The measurement data indicated that the majority of truck pass-bys
have a maximum sound level in the range of 65 to 75 dBA (at 70 feet). The loudest truck
measured was approximately 82 dBA at 70 feet. The average of the data was 69 dBA at 70 feet
with a standard deviation of 5.3.
The California Motor Vehicle Code establishes maximum sound levels for trucks operating at
speeds less than 35 miles per hour (Section 23130), The maximum sound level established by
the code is 86 dBA at 50 feet, or 83 dBA at 70 feet. None of the trucks measured exceeded this
level. However, the loudest truck measured was very close to this limit. If a statistical normal
distribution curve is fitted to the data obtained, the frequency that trucks will exceed, certain
noise limits can be predicted. For example, based on the data collected 1 out of every 125 trucks
that would use the facility would be expected to exceed the motor vehicle code standard. For
worst case analysis, an Lrnax of 82 dBA at 70 feet was used to project the noise exposures at
adjacent residential areas due to delivery truck/loading dock activities.
The Federal Highway Administration has published data that indicates that the smaller vehicles
that may deliver goods to the hotel are approximately 18 dBA quieter ("FHWA Highway
Traffic Noise Prediction Model," FHWA-RD-11-108). These vehicles are essentially just vans
and are considered automobiles. The maximum noise level generated by these vehicles is 62
dBA at a distance of 50 feet.

Residential areas currently exist directly adjacent to the proposed project site. The area most
likely to be impacted by activities associated with the delivery trucks are these residences. Truck
deliveries are expected to occur only in daytime hours.
The critical short term Lmax noise levels associated with delivery truck operations are typically
due to truck accelerating and decelerating, or truck brake squeal. There ate other noise sources
associated with delivery trucks. There is the backup beeper, door slams, and general cargo
loading and unloading at the loading dock. The truck pass -by noise, however, will be the worst
case noise scenario at the adjacent residential areas.
The adjacent residential areas are at grade with the project. An observer at the worst case
location is approximately 30 feet away from the nearest point of the truck travel area in front of
the loading dock and will be exposed to an unmitigated Lmax noise levels of 89 dBA. These
noise levels would be generated by a large truck and not by a small delivery van.
The distances and the truck operation noise of the loading dock at the nearest residential areas
are shown in Table 4.

UNMITIGATED NOISE LEVELS AT ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL AREAS
Single Event
Truck Pass -by
Receptor Distance (ft) Lmax (dBA)
Worst Case 30 89.4
Daytime Exterior Noise Ordinance Limits: 80 dBA
As can be seen in the, noise data in the table above, the unmitigated noise levels due to the
delivery operations exceed the daytime exterior noise ordinance limit of 80 dBA. No deliveries
are expected to occur in the nighttime hours, therefore, only the daytime ordinance value will be
applied. Mitigation will be required to reduce truck noise to levels considered acceptable by the
City of Newport Beach.
2.2.2 Air -Conditioner Noise Impacts
Air conditioning unit noise can be quite loud and is a potential source of noise ordinance
violations. At this time, very little information is available regarding the size, type and location of
any air-conditioning equipment. Therefore, it is not possible to accurately predict the impact of
any equipment on the project site. Mitigating noise impacts from air-conditioning equipment is
not difficult to do, however. Walls can be built around the equipment or the equipment could
potentially be located on the roofs of the project structures.
An analysis of air-conditioning related noise issues should be included in the final noise

analysis for the project.
2.2.3 Parking Lot Noise
Measurements were made 50 feet from a parking structure at South Coast Plaza. The
measurements for door slamming and car start-up ranged from below 55 dBA up to 70 dBA.
The upper range for door slams was from a car in the nearest parking space to the noise
monitor and was a very vigorous door slam. The lower end of the range was for cars that were
farther from the measurement location. The louder car start-ups were generated by vehicles with
poor muffler systems. Car horns and alarms ranged from 74 dBA to 82 dBA.
The proposed main parking lot for the Newport Dunes project will be approximately 75 feet
from receptors in the existing trailer park. Table 5 shows the noise levels extrapolated to a
distance of 75 feet so as to reflect the noise levels that will be experienced by the residents
adjacent to the proposed project. A range is given to reflect the variability of noise generated by
various automobile types and driving styles. The noise levels presented in the table indicate that
the City of Newport Beach peak noise limit could be exceeded by car homs and alarms.
Table 5
Maximum Noise Levels Generated by the Parking Lot
At the Nearest Residence (dBA of 75 feet)
Event Maximum Noise Level (dBA)
Door Slam 46 to 61
Engine Start-up 46 to 61
Car Horns and Alarms 72 to 79
The table indicates that the project parking lot noise will potentially exceed the City of Newport
Beach Noise Ordinance in the nighttime hours. Mitigation that will eliminate this potential will
be included in the Mitigation Section.
2.2.4 Amplified Music
Amplified music will potentially be played in some of the outdoor areas that are planned for the
r project. Amplified music, however, will be confined to the courtyard areas of the project. These
courtyard areas do not face the existing residences and music from the courtyards (assuming
that it is limited to a reasonable volume) should not be audible in the trailer park. The nearest
potential receptor that could be impacted by amplified music is the Hyatt Newporter Resort.
This location is approximately 1,500 feet from the courtyard area. Noise levels experienced at
the Hyatt Newporter will be at least 22 dBA less than at a point located 50 feet from the source
on the music. Therefore, amplified music should be limited to an Leq level of 75 dBA measured
at a point 50 feet from the source of the music. If the music is allowed to exceed an Leq of 75
dBA, noise ordinance exceedances may occur at the Hyatt Newporter.

3.0 MITIGATION MEASURES
3.1 Construction Noise
The most effective method to control construction noise is through the institution of local
control over construction hours. Construction activities are prohibited by Section 10.28.040 of
the City of Newport Beach Municipal Code outside of the hours of lam. through 6:30 p.m ,
Monday through Friday, and 8 a.m. through 6 p.m. on Saturdays. No construction should
occur on Sundays or Federal holidays.
3.2 Off -Site Traffic Impacts
Additional traffic generated by the project may generate noise levels in excess of 45 CNEL
inside the trailers. A sound wall should be constructed along Bayside Drive that will reduce the
traffic generated noise levels in the trailer park. Calculations indicate that a 6-foot wall along this
roadway will reduce traffic noise within the park to approximately 58 CNEL. If the exterior to
interior attenuation of the trailers is 15 dBA, the interior noise level will be approximately 44
CNEL. This level complies with the City of Newport Beach noise standard for mobile home
parks. Exhibit 5 shows the location of the recommended sound wall.
The noise barriers are required to have a surface density of at least 3.5 pounds per square foot,
and have no openings or cracks. They may be a solid wall, an earthen berm, or a combination
of the two. They may be constructed of wood studs with stucco exterior, 1/4 inch plate glass,
5/8 inch plexiglass, any masonry material, or a combination of these materials. Wood and other
materials may be acceptable if properly designed as a noise barrier.
3.3 Off -Site Operational Impacts
There are two potentials for noise ordinance violations: delivery truck noise and air conditioning
noise.
3.3.1 Delivery Truck Noise
Section 2.2.1 indicates that noise levels from delivery truck operations could reach as high as 89
dBA. This noise level exceeds the City of Newport Beach maximum noise ordinance of 80
dBA. The most effective method of reducing delivery truck noise levels is to construct a noise
wall along the delivery route. Calculations indicate that a 9-foot high wall would reduce noise
levels by approximately 13 dBA. Such a wall would reduce noise levels from delivery Huck
opera ions to a in
of approximately 75 dBA. This noise level complies with the City of
Newport Beach daye noise ordinance, but still exceed the nighttime ordinance. Therefore,
deliveries should be tricted to the hours between 7 a m. and 10 p.m. (i.e., no deliveries should
be allowed prior to 7 a.m, or later than 10 p.m.). Exhibit 6 shows the required location of the
noise wall.
3.3.2 Air Conditioner Noise
There is insufficient data to accurately assess air-conditioning noise at this tinx. Air-
conditioning related noise can, however, be mitigated through proper location of the equipment
and through enclosing the equipment with sound attenuating structures. It is expected that air-
conditioning noise can easily be mitigated to levels that comply with the City of Newport Beach
noise ordinance.

Page 11
3.3.3 Parking Lot Noise
The analysis of parking lot noise indicated that the maximum noise level generated by parking
lot noise would be 79 dBA. This noise level would exceed the City of Newport Beach nighttime
ordinance. In order to eliminate the potential for this noise ordinance exceedance, some sort of
mitigation should be designed into the project.
Exhibit 6 shows the noise wall that will reduce noise levels from truck deliveries. This wall will
also reduce parking lot noise to levels below the ordinance limit. This wall will reduce maximum
noise levels from the parking lot to approximately 62 to 69 dBA.
3.3A Amplified Music
Amplified music in the courtyard areas should be limited to an Leq noise level of 75 dBA when
measured 50 feet from the source of the sound. Furthermore, outdoor amplified music should
not be allowed after 10 p.m. or before 7 a.m.

Newport Dunes Hotel
Preliminary Hydrology and Hydraulic Analysis
May 12, 1998
I11VTKUDUI HUN
This project is located in the City of Newport Beach, along the Back Bay Area, at the
northerly end of Bayside Drive. The main portion of the site is currently being used as a
Recreational Beach Resort with Recreational Vehicle (RV) facilities. The site contains
large swimming lagoon and beach facilities. The southwesterly area is currently
servicing the existing marina along the Back Bay and providing parking and boat storage
areas for it's patrons.
The site is accessible from two locations. The main entrance to the marina area and the
future hotel site is from Bayside Drive, which connects to Pacific Coast Highway. The
second access, which is mainly used for the RV facilities, is located off of Back Bay
JDrive.near
the intersection with Jamboree Road.
The proposed development area is along the southerly side of the swimming lagoon,
between the marina and the Motor Home facilities. The main areas effected by this
development will be the parking areas, boat storage area, and a portion of the RV
facilities. Dredge material from the Back Bay activities are also currently being stored on
the portion of the site. This material will be removed prior to the start of construction on
the site.
HYDROLOGYSTUDY
The hydrology calculations have analyzed the site for a 25-year storm frequency. The
25-year storm frequency analysis is used for areas with sump conditions and is consistent
with the standard method required by the City of Newport Beach Public Works
Department. This analysis is based upon guidelines described in the Orange County
Public Facilities and Resources Standard Hydrology Manual. These calculations are
based upon the Modified Rational Method using the Advanced Engineering Software
(AES) "RATSC" program. The land use for this site has been designated as
"Commercial" use with a Soil Type "C" to define the percentages of impervious areas
and the rain runoff characteristics.
For the purposes of the hydrology and hydraulic calculations, 100 feet has been added to
the proposed elevations to eliminate the conflicts that the programs have with negative
elevations representing depths below sea level.

HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
The hydraulic analysis has been calculated in this report utilizing the WSPG program,
which is also a standard method accepted by the City of Newport Beach Public Works
Department. This program analyzes the system's flow and calculates any backwater
effects to determine the systems ability to carry the runoff flows. The City of Newport
Beach Public Works Department has provided the hydraulic control for the storm drain
lines. This control is elevation 6.0, which relates to the mean high tide elevation in the
bay.
Because of the hotel's close proximity to the bay, this analysis provides the hydraulic
information needed to set the final elevation of the hotel. This information is important
to make sure that the hotel will remain free of any flooding conditions for the storms that
have been analyzed.
This preliminary analysis only studies the main lines shown on the Hydrology Map.
Laterals and extensions of this system will be reviewed in the final analysis.
MITIGATING MEASURES
STORM DRAIN ALIGNMENTS
The storm drain alignments shown on the Hydrology Map included with this report
utilize three of the existing headwall connections. The existing headwall connection for
line "A" along the southerly side of the hotel will need to be enlarged to allow a larger
pipe connection. This adjustment will allow the storm drain line to pick up more flows
along the southerly and easterly sides of the hotel.
A new connection will need to be added to the headwall to support storm drain line "C"
which will pick up most of the drainage along the lagoon side of the hotel.
The two other existing connections to the storm drain will be used to pick up runoff from
the marina and adjacent areas. The installation of the four storm drain lines will enable
more of the flows from the site to be outlet into the bay. I
STORM DRAIN PIPES I
The current storm drain system has been constructed using High -Density Polyethylene
pipe (HDPE). This type of pipe is often desirable in open areas because of the ease in
handling and installation. The HDPE pipe is also resistant to many of the effects of salt
water. However, HDPE pipe will deflect a small amount if any adjacent excavations or
ground movements effect the earth supporting the side of the pipe. This may cause the
surface above the pipe to settle. For this reason many Public Agencies are cautious about
the use of it in construction of storm drain systems.
I
05/13/98 97-1172
This analysis assumes that the proposed storm drain alignments shown on the Hydrology
Map will utilize Reinforced Concrete Pipe with Type 5 cement to avoid any of these
problems.
ISUMMARY
This report shows that this preliminary storm drain design can satisfy the drainage
requirements of the City of Newport Beach for the development of this hotel site.
The preliminary storm drain design also shows that the installation of this storm drain
will help direct more of the storm runoff from this site to the existing and proposed bay
outlets. This will help to preserve the water quality within the swimming lagoon area.
The final design of the storm drain system may effect some of the results of this
preliminary design. However, this analysis provides a basis for the design development
of the hotel and those facilities necessary for the final designs and construction.

' NOTICE OF PREPARATION
PROJECT:
' Newport Dunes Resort
LEAD AGENCY:
City of Newport Beach
Planning Department
3300 Newport Boulevard
Newport Beach, California 92658-8915
SUBJECT:
' The City of Newport Beach will be the Lead Agency and will prepare an environmental
impact report for the project identified below. We need to know the views of your
' agency as to the scope and content of the environmental information which is germane
to your agency's statuary responsibilities in connection with the proposed project. Your
agency will need to use the EIR prepared by our agency when considering your permit
or other approval for the project.
Private individuals and groups are also encouraged to express their views as to the
scope and content of the environmental information, which should be included in the
environmental impact report.
' Due to time limits mandated by State law, your response should be sent at the earliest
possible date but not later than 30 days after receipt of this notice.
' PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project is a planned community development plan for Newport Dunes Resort. The
t project includes the construction of a full -service destination resort hotel. The hotel will
provide 400 guestrooms and 100 time-share units. The 100 time-share units will be
designed with the capability to be split or "locked off' for a maximum total of 600
' rentable rooms. Approximately 20 percent of the guestrooms will be suites. Hotel
amenities will include swimming pools; health, fitness, and recreation facilities;
children's facilities; dining facilities; ballrooms and meeting rooms; retail space; a
' parking structure and surface parking areas; and landscaped garden areas.
The hotel site is part of the larger Newport Dunes Resort area that comprises
' approximately 100 acres on Upper Newport Bay. The planned community development
includes the existing improvements in the Newport Dunes Resort. Current
improvements within the Newport Dunes Resort area include a 10-acre swimming
1
�J
beach, a mile -long pedestrian promenade around a swimming lagoon, day use facilities '
with parking and beach restrooms, a restaurant, a 450 slip marina, a 400+ space
recreational vehicle park, swimming pools, meeting space, and boat storage and
launching facilities. Since these land uses are approved and constructed, they will not
generate any additional environmental impacts.
The existing land uses on the 100-acre Newport Dunes Resort property were originally
r
approved by the City of Newport Beach and the County of Orange in 1980. This
approval was part of the Newport Dunes Redevelopment Plan and subsequent 1983
Settlement Agreement. The redevelopment plan and _settlement_ agreement also
ap,proved the development of a 275-room "family_inn" with up to 5Q0,OOQ square feet of
-door area, 27,500 square feet of floor area for restaurants, and 5,000 square feet of
floor area for commercial retail on the .proposed hotel site. Copies of these documents
'
are available for public review.
The hotel's interior facilities are expected to be contained within a total of approximately
700,000 square feet. An entry court located off of the Bayside Drive entry will lead to
the central lobby and courtyard of the hotel. The lobby and interior courtyard will
overlook the swimming beach and lagoon. Hotel guestrooms will be located in separate
building wings that surround three separate garden courtyards. These separate
building wings are attached to the central north -south "spine" of the hotel. The building
'
configuration is intended to maximize the views of the bay and the landscaped
courtyards from the guestrooms. The hotel would contain five distinct levels. The
maximum height limit for 75 percent of the building footprint would be 50 feet and the
remaining 25 percent of the building footprint could be built to a maximum height of 75
feet. Building heights would be measured from a maximum pad elevation of 12 feet
above mean sea level.
Two swimming pools will be provided with different designs to accommodate both adult
and family use. Lighting and water features will be incorporated into the design of the
swimming pools. The hotel will also contain a health club featuring a workout/weight
room and locker facility. Two tennis courts with a small sports -oriented retail outlet and
juice bar will be provided. A game room/arcade will be included in the hotel's
recreational facilities.
Dining areas will be provided on the main (third) level of the hotel. The more formal
Dining Room and private dining areas will overlook the pool area and landscaped
courtyard and will seat approximately 75 to 100 persons. The informal restaurant will
offer meals throughout the day and on weekends. The lobby lounge and bar will
include areas for dancing and outdoor terrace seating and dining.
The hotel would provide a total of 54,000 square feet of public areas, of which, 41,000
square feet consist of function areas, including conference rooms, meeting room, and
banquet facilities and 13,000 square feet consist of pre -function assembly and '
circulation areas. Most public areas would be provided on the first level. These public
areas would include two 12,000 square foot ballrooms, which can be divided into
I
1
r
' several smaller spaces, and an additional 9,000 square feet of pre -function areas.
There will also be two smaller junior ballroom/meeting rooms of 5,000 square feet each
and pre -function areas totaling 4,000 square feet. All these ballroom/meeting rooms
will be accessible to and served by a central banquet kitchen. The third level would
provide a 3,000 square foot banquet room and a total of five meeting rooms of 800
rsquare feet each.
The public areas are oriented primarily for use by in-house groups (i.e., individuals and
groups staying at the hotel). Local events (use by non -hotel guests) are estimated to
utilize the public areas no more than 25 percent of the time.
A 3,400 square foot gift shop/retail space will be located in or adjacent to the main
lobby area. A 1,500 square foot business center will be located on the third level. The
landscaping of the hotel and courtyard gardens will include water features, walkways
and plantings that relate to the surrounding bay and marina facilities.
Vehicular access to the hotel site would be provided by Bayside Drive. Emergency and
service access would be provided by a service road connecting to Back Bay Drive
through the recreational vehicle park. Public coastal access would be provided -to
connect Bayside Drive to the existing public walkways along the marina bayfront and
' adjacent to the swimming lagoon.
Hotel and marina parking will be accommodated by ground level parking and in a
parking garage integrated into the hotel. Off-street parking will consist of a parking
structure containing a minimum of 1,050 parking spaces and a surface parking lot
containing 170 spaces. The hotel will meet all emergency, fire access, and ADA
' requirements.
The proposed project will result in the displacement of approximately 150 spaces of the
existing Newport Dunes Recreational Vehicle Resort. A total of approximately 256
recreational vehicle spaces will be retained within the existing recreational vehicle park
after development of the proposed project.
LOCATION':

APN: 440-132-42 to 47
' Section: 26 Township: 7S Range: 10W Baseline: San Bernardino
SETTING:
' The Newport Dunes Resort consists of approximately 100 acres located on Upper
Newport Bay, northwest of the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Jamboree
Road. This parcel is on long-term lease from the County of Orange within the City of
Newport Beach. The Newport Dunes Resort is currently developed a 10-acre swimming
beach, a mile -long pedestrian promenade around a swimming lagoon, day use facilities
r
3
I
with 645 parking spaces and beach restrooms, a restaurant, a 450 slip marina, a 400+
space recreational vehicle park, swimming pools, meeting space, and boat storage and
launching facilities. The 30 acre hotel site consists of an interim boat, trailer, and
recreational vehicle storage area; approximately 150 spaces of the recreational vehicle
park; and a parking lot for the Newport Dunes Marina and the -restaurant. A portion of
the hotel site contains about 85,000 cubic yards of dredge materials that were placed to '
a height of about 15 feet within a bermed area. This material was temporarily placed at
the site by a contractor for the County of Orange as part of maintenance dredging
operations in the adjacent Newport Dunes Marina.
REQUIRED PERMITS AND APPROVALS:
The proposed project requires the following discretionary project approvals from the
City of Newport Beach as Lead Agency. The environmental impact report is intended to
cover the approvals listed below as well as any other related non -discretionary
approvals. Although several of these required approvals apply to the entire 100-acre
Newport Dunes Resort site, the environmental impact report analyzes the impacts of
the proposed Newport Dunes Hotel. The land uses within the remainder of the Newport
Dunes Resort site have been approved and constructed. These existing land uses will,
therefore, not generate any additional environmental impacts.
1. General Plan Amendment (GPA No. 97-3 (F); '
2. Amendment to the Newport Beach Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan
(LCP No. 51);
3. Amendment to the Newport Beach Zoning Code (Chapter 20.65 - Height a
Limits) to permit the proposed structural height limits contained in the
proposed planned community development plan (Amendment No. 878);
4. Approval of the Newport Dunes Resort Planned Community Development
Plan (Planned Community Development Plan No. 48);
5. Adoption of a conceptual site development plan for the entire Newport Dunes
site to: a) include the proposed hotel as a portion of the overall Newport
Dunes Redevelopment project and b) indicate the existing approved
entitlements, oh the remainder of the Newport Dunes Redevelopment site.
6. Approval of the Project Traffic Analysis and TPO Analysis (Traffic Study No. '
115); and
y 7. Approval of a development agreement (Development Agreement No. 12); ,
8. Certification of the environmental impact report (EIR No. 157) pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

' The Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan amendment would not become effective
until it is approved by the California Coastal Commission. In addition, the California
Coastal Commission retains permit jurisdiction. Therefore, a coastal development
permit would have to be approved by the California Coastal Commission.

PROBABLE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS:
Based on an initial study and a previously proposed mitigated negative declaration
(SCH #9806113) prepared for the project and comments for agencies and the public, it
appears that the project may result in significant environmental impacts in the following
areas:
Im act Category
Possible Environmental Impacts
Land Use and Planning
The project's conformity with City of Newport Beach General
Plan and Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan olicies.
Geotechnical/Soils
The project could be affected by seismic activity, unstable
soils, and liquefaction.
Water Quality
The project could affect absorption rates, drainage patterns,
and the rate and amount of surface runoff. Runoff from the
project site could affect the water quality in the adjacent Upper
Newport Bay.
Air Quality
The project could generate pollutants due to increased
automobile traffic as well as from the combustion of natural
gas and the generation of electricity. The operation of
construction vehicles could also temporarily affect air quality
Transportation/Circulation
The project could generate increased vehicle trips or traffic
congestion. The traffic and parking analysis will address both
the use of the hotel/time-share and the hotel's function areas.
The EIR will analyze the peak hour traffic impact caused by the
maximum reasonably foreseeable use of the function areas by
non -hotel guests.
Biological Resources
The project could affect endangered, threatened or rare
species or their habitats, particularly those associated with the
adjacent Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve.
Energy and Mineral Resources
The project could use non-renewable resources in a wasteful
or inefficient manner.
Hazards
The removal of dredge materials from the project site could
represent a potential health hazard to adjacent residential
areas.
Noise
The project could result in increases in existing noise levels
due to increased traffic levels on Bayside Drive. The EIR will
analyze the noise impacts associated with additional trips,
especially during late night and early morning hours. There is
also the potential for short-term noise impacts associated with
construction vehicles and equipment.
Public Services
The project could result in a need for additional police and fire
services.
Utilities and Service Systems
The project could generate increased demand fo'r water and
generate wastewater and solid wastes.
Aesthetics
The project could impact public viewsheds and result in light
and glare impacts.
Cultural Resources
Project construction could disturb buried archaeological and
paleontological resources.
I
5
I
Recreation The project will result in the displacement of approximately 150
spaces in the Newport Dunes Recreational Vehicle Resort.
The project could also generate demand upon other
recreational facilities, including other public beaches. The
project could also impact public access to recreational facilities
in the Newport Dunes, including the provision of lower -cost
In addition to these topics, CEQA requires mandatory conclusions regarding impacts in
three specific areas. These are listed below:
Required Impact Conclusion
Possible Environmental Effects
Growth -Inducing Impacts
The project is not expected to induce substantial growth in the
area.
Cumulative Impacts
Project impacts could be coincident with impacts of other
projects in the vicinity,
Significant Unavoidable Environmental
The project could cause significant unavoidable environmental
Effects
effects.
PROJECT ALTERNATIVES:
According to the State CEQA Guidelines, an EIR is obligated to present alternatives to
the proposed project or alternative locations for the project which are capable of
eliminating significant environmental impacts. A reasonable range of alternatives to the
proposed project that could feasibly attain the basic project objectives will be provided.
Significant environmental effects of the alternatives will be discussed and compared
with impacts associated With the proposed project. This analysis of project alternatives
will also identify the environmental superior project altemative(s).

Re. Newport Dunes Resort -NOTICE OF PREPARATION
Dear Mr. Alford,
Thank you for the opportunity to review the NOTICE OF
PREPARATION for the Dunes project. I am grateful as an
individual to be allowed to express my views as to the scope
and content of the environmental information which should be
included in the environmental impact report.
PROJECT ALTERNATIVES:
In presenting alternatives to the proposed project or
alternative locations, two other items should be considered.
First,include considering alternative primary access routes
to the hotel. Second, alternative size such as remaining at
the approved size of a 275 room Family Inn.
Both are capable of eliminating significant environmental
impacts on the residential community of Bayside Village.
Please include these two items in the scope of the E.I.R.

Notice of Preparation of'Draft Environmental Impact Report
Newport Dunes Resort Hotel
SCH 98061113, Orange County
The Department of Fish and Game (Department) appreciates this opportunity to
comment on the above -referenced project, relative to impacts to biological resources. To
enable Department staff to adequately review and comment on the proposed project, we
recommend the following information be included in the draft Environmental Impact Report:
A complete assessment of the flora and fauna within and adjacent to the project.area,
with particular emphasis upon identifying endangered, threatened, and locally unique
species and sensitive habitats.
a. A thorough assessment of rare plants and rare natural communities, following
the Departments May 1984 Guidelines for Assessing Impacts to Rare Plants
and Rare Natural Communities (Attachment 1).
b. A complete assessment of sensitive fish, wildlife, reptile, and amphibian species.
Seasonal variations in use of the project area should also be addressed.
Focused species -specific surveys, conducted at the appropriate time of year and
time of day when the sensitive species are active or otherwise identifiable, are
required. Acceptable species -specific survey procedures should be developed in
consultation with the Department and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
C. Rare, threatened, and endangered species to be addressed should include all
those which meet the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) definition
(see CEQA Guidelines, § 16380).

d. The Department's California Natural Diversity Data Base in Sacramento should
be contacted at (916) 327-5960 to obtain current information on any previously
reported sensitive species and habitat, including Significant Natural Areas
identified under Chapter 12 of the Fish and Game Code.
2. A thorough discussion of direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts expected to adversely
affect biological resources, with specific measures to offset such impacts.
a. CEQA Guidelines, § 15125(a), direct that knowledge of the regional setting Is
critical to an assessment of environmental impacts and that special emphasis
should be placed on resources that are rare or unique to the region.
b. Project impacts should be analyzed relative to their effects on off -site habitats.
Specifically, this should include nearby public lands, open space, adjacent
natural habitats, and riparian ecosystems. Impacts to and maintenance of
wildlife corridor/movement areas, including access to undisturbed habitat in
adjacent areas, should be fully evaluated and provided.
C. The zoning of areas for development projects or other uses that are nearby or
adjacent to natural areas may inadvertently contribute to wildlife -human
interactions. A discussion of possible conflicts and mitigation measures to
reduce these conflicts should be included in the environmental document.
d. A cumulative effects analysis should be developed as described under CEQA
Guidelines, § 15130. General and specific plans, as well as past, present, and
anticipated future projects, shouid� be analyzed relative to their impacts on similar
plant communities and wildlife habitats.
e. The document should include an analysis of the effect that the project may have
on completion and implementation of regional and/or subregional conservation
programs. Under § 2800-§ 2840 of the Fish and Game Code, the Department,
through the Natural Communities Conservation Planning (NCCP) program, is
coordinating with local jurisdictions, landowners, and the Federal Government to
preserve local and regional biological diversity. Coastal sage scrub Is the first
natural community to be planned for under the NCCP program. The Department
recommends that the lead agency ensure that the development of this and other
proposed projects do not preclude long-term preserve planning options and that
projects conform with other requirements of the NCCP program. Jurisdictions
participating in the NCCP program should assess specific projects for
consistency with the NCCP Conservation Guidelines. Additionally, the
jurisdictions should quantity and qualify: 1) the amount of coastal sage scrub
within their boundaries; 2) the acreage of coastal sage scrub habitat removed by
individual projects; and 3) any acreage set aside for mitigation. This information
should be kept in an updated ledger system.

3. A range of alternatives should be analyzed to ensure that alternatives to the proposed
project are fully considered and evaluated. A range of alternatives which avoid or
otherwise minimize impacts to sensitive biological resources should be included.
Specific alternative locations should also be evaluated in areas with lower resource
sensitivity where appropriate.
a. Mitigation measures for project impacts to sensitive plants, animals, and habitats
should emphasize evaluation and selection of alternatives which avoid or
otherwise minimize project impacts. Off -site compensation for unavoidable
impacts through acquisition and protection of high -quality habitat elsewhere
should be addressed.
b. The Department considers Rare Natural Communities as threatened habitats
having both regional and local significance. Thus, these communities should
be fully avoided and otherwise protected from project -related impacts
(Attachment 2).
C. The Department generally does not support the use of relocation, salvage,
and/or transplantation as mitigation for impacts to rare, threatened, or
endangered species. Department studies have shown that these efforts are
experimental in nature and largely unsuccessful.
4. A California Endangered Species Act (CESA) Permit must be obtained, if the project
has the potential to result in "take" of species of plants or animals listed under CESA,
either during construction or over the life of the project. CESA Permits are issued to
conserve, protect, enhance, and restore State -listed threatened or endangered species
and their habitats. Early consultation is encouraged, as significant modification to the
proposed project and mitigation measures may be required in order to obtain a CESA
Permit. Revisions to the Fish and Game Code, effective January, 1998, require that the
Department issue a separate CEQA document for the issuance of a CESA permit
unless the project CEQA document addresses all project impacts to listed species and
specifies a mitigation monitoring and reporting program that will meet the requirements
of a CESA permit. For these reasons, the following information is requested:
a. Biological mitigation monitoring and reporting proposals should be of sufficient
detail and resolution to satisfy the requirements for a CESA Permit.
b. A Department -approved Mitigation Agreement and Mitigation Plan are required
for plants listed as rare under the Native Plant Protection Act.
5. The Department opposes the elimination of watercourses and/or their channelization or
conversion to subsurface drains. All wetlands and watercourses, whether intermittent or
perennial, must be retained and provided with substantial setbacks which preserve the
riparian and aquatic values and maintain their value to on -site and off -site wildlife
populations.

a. The Department has direct authority under Fish and Game Code §1600 et. seq.
in regard to any proposed activity which would divert, obstruct, or affect the
natural flow or change the bed, channel, or bank of any river, stream, or lake.
Early consultation is recommended, since modification of the proposed project
may be required to avoid or reduce impacts to fish and wildlife resources.
b. A discussion of potential adverse impacts from any increased runoff,
sedimentation, soil erosion, and/or urban pollutants on streams and
watercourses on or near the project site, with mitigation measures proposed to
alleviate such impacts must be included.
The Department holds regularly scheduled pre -project planning/early consultation
meetings. To make an appointment, please call our regional office at (562) 590-5137.
Thank you for this opportunity to comment. Questions regarding this letter and further
coordination on these issues should be directed to Mr. Scott Harris, Wildlife Biologist, at (562)
590-5100.

GUIDELINES FOR ASSESSING THE EFFECTS OF PROPOSED
DEVELOPMENTS ON RARE AND ENDANGERED PLANTS AND PLANT COMMUNITIES
The following recommendations are intended to help those who prepare and review environmental documents determine
Md= a botanical survey is needed, who should be considered qualified to conduct such surveys, how field surveys should
be conducted and what information should be contained in the survey report
I1.
1�
I

4.
Botanical surveys that are conducted to determine the environmental effects of a proposed development should be
directed to all rare and endangered plants and plant communities. Rare and endangered plants are not necessarily
limited to those species which have been "listed" by state and federal agencies but should include any species that,
based on all available data, can be shown to be rare and/or endangered under the following definitions.
A species, subspecies or variety of plant is "endangered" when the prospects of its survival and reproduction are in
immediate jeopardy form one or more causes, including loss of habitat, change in habitat, over -exploitation,
predation, competition or disease. A plant is "rare" when, although not presently threatened with extinction, the
species, subspecies or variety is found in such small numbers throughout its range that it may be endangered if its
environment worsens.
Rare plant communities are those communities that are of highly limited distribution. These communities may or
may not contain rare or endangered species. The most current version of the California Natural Diversity Data
Base's Outline of Terrestrial Communities in California may be used as a guide to the names of communities.
It is appropriate to conduct a botanical field survey to determine if, or the extent that, rare plants will be affected by a
proposed project when:
a. Based on an initial biological assessment, it appears that the project may damage potential rare plant
habitat,*
b. Rare plants have historically been identified on the project site, but adequate information of impact
assessment is lacking; or
C. No initial biological assessment has been conducted and it is unknown whether or not rare plants or their
habitat exist on the site.
Botanical consultants should be selected on the basis of possession of the following qualifications (n order of
importance):
a. Experience as a botanical field investigatorwith experience in field sampling design and field methods;
b. Taxonomic experience and a knowledge of plant ecology;
C. Familiarity with the plants of the area, including rare species; and
d. Familiarity with the appropriate state and federal statutes related to rare plants and plant collecting.
Field surveys should be conducted in a manner that will locate any rare or endangered species that may be
present. 'Specifically, rare or endangered plant surveys should be:
a. Conducted at the proper time of year when rare or endangered species are both "evident" and identifiable.
Field surveys should be scheduled (1) to coincide with known flowering periods, and/or (2) during periods of

SENSITIVITY OF TOP PRIORITY RARE NATURAL
COMMUNITIES IN SOUTHERN CAUFORNV,*
Sensitivity rankings are determined by the Department of Fish and Game, California Natural Diversity Data Base and based on eAher
number of known occurrences Vocations) and/or amountof habitat remaining (acreage). The three rankings used forthese top priority
rare natural communities are as follows:
S1. - Less than B known locations and/or on less than 2,000 acres of habitat remaining.
S2. - Occurs in 6-20 known locations andlor2,000-10,000 acres of habitat remaining.
S3. - Occurs in 21-100 known locations and/or 10,000.50,000 acres of habitat remaining.
The number to the right of the decimal point after the ranking refers to the degree of threat posed to the natural community regardless of
the ranking. For example:

Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on the Notice of Preparation for the
Newport Dunes Resort. The proposed project is for the construction of a full -service destination
resort hotel. The hotel will provide 400 guestrooms and 100 time-share units. The proposed
project is located on 100 acres on Upper Newport Bay, northwest of the intersection of Pacific
Coast Highway and Jamboree Road. Caltrans District 12 is a reviewing agency and had the
following comments for your consideration.
A traffic study should be prepared which would include existing and future average daily
traffic volumes, traffic generation (including peak hour), traffic distribution, and intersection
analysis using the Highway Capacity Manual method.
In addition, no additional off -site surface runoff will be allowed to discharge to Pacific Coast
Highway. Final hydrology and hydraulic plans need to be submitted to Caltrans for review.
We appreciate the opportunity to comment on this document. If you have any questions or
need to contact us please call Aileen Kennedy on (949) 724-2239.

RE: Newport Dunes Hotel — Notice of Preparation
Dear Mr. Alford:
RECEIVED BY
PLANNING DEPARTMENT
CITY OF: NEWPORT BEACH
AM sFp 17 1998 PM
71819110111112111213141516
Thank you for the opportunity to review the "Notice of Preparation" on an
environmental report for the Newport Dunes Resort. The concerns raised by the
proposed Newport Dunes Resort with the Coastal Act where identified in our
letter of August 3, 1998 when we commented on the "Notice of Completion".
Our principal concerns expressed in that letter were: 1) that the project will
require Coastal Commission approval; 2) that the project, as currently described,
is inconsistent with the public access provisions of the Coastal Act, specifically
the policies encouraging the use of the site for'lower cost visitor recreational
facilities and coastal dependent uses; and 3) that the project is inconsistent with
prior Commission actions for the site promoting use of the site for lower cost
overnight facilities (R.V. spaces), and the displacement of parking and dry boat
storage. The environmental impact report should address the concerns identified
in this prior letter, since they are still applicable. A copy of the August 3, 1998
letter is attached.
Based on additional information contained in the "Notice of Preparation", we
have three further concerns that the environmental impact report (EIR) should
evaluate based on the Coastal Act. First, the "Notice of Preparation" notes that
the project could affect endangered, threatened, or rare species since the site is
adjacent to the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve. Section 30240 of the
Coastal Act states that:
(al Environmentally sensitive habitat areas shall be protected against
any significant disruption of habitat values, and only uses dependent
on those resources shall be allowed within those areas.
(b) Development in areas adjacent to environmentally sensitive habitat
areas and parks and recreation areas shall be sited and designed to
i
prevent impacts which would significantly degrade those areas, and
shall be compatible with the continuance of those habitat and
recreation areas.
Consequently, the EIR should undertake an inventory and impact analysis of the
plant and animal species present that could be adversely impacted by the
proposed project. Since Section 30240 protects environmentally sensitive
habitat areas, project alternatives that avoid adverse impacts to environmentally
sensitive habitat areas should be developed for the EIR.
Second, the Notice of Preparation" notes that the removal of dredge material
from the project site could present a potential health hazard to adjacent
residents. According to the "Notice of Preparation" a portion of the hotel site
contains about 85,000 cubic yards of dredge materials. Sections 30230 and
30231 of the Coastal Act state:
Section 30230. Marine resources shall be maintained, enhanced, and
where feasible, restored. Special protection shall be given to areas and
species of special biological or economic significance. Uses of the marine
environment shall be carried out in a manner that will sustain the biological
productivity of coastal waters and that will maintain healthy populations of
all species of marine organisms adequate for long-term commercial,
recreational, scientific, and educational purposes.
Section 30231. The biological productivity and the quality of coastal
waters, streams, wetlands, estuaries, and lakes appropriate to maintain
optimum populations of marine organisms and for the protection of human
health shall be maintained and, where feasible, restored through, among
other means, minimizing adverse effects of waste water discharges and
entrainment, controlling runoff, prevent/ng depletion of ground water
supplies and substantial interference with surface water flow, encouraging
waste water reclamation, maintaining natural vegetation buffer areas that
protect riparian habitats, and minimizing alteration of natural streams.
The removal of the dredge material raises two concerns with the Coastal Act
policies cited above. First, the "Notice of Preparation" notes that the dredging
operation could present a health hazard to adjacent residents. However, the
nature of the health hazard was not stated. The EIR should evaluate how the
removal of the dredged materials could affect human health. Second the
removal of the dredged material; if it is disposed in coastal waters could affect
water quality and biological productivity. The "Notice of Preparation" did not
identify how the dredged material would be disposed of. Consequently, the EIR
should evaluate if any of the dredge material would be suitable for beach
nourishment and it should specify the disposal site for dredged material not
suitable for beach nourishment. If disposal occurs in coastal waters the EIR
should then evaluate the impact of the disposal operation on both water quality
and biological productivity.
Page: 2
Third, the "Notice of Preparation" notes that the project could disturb buried
archeological and paleontological resources. The "Notice of Preparation"
however, did not specify if any known archeological or paleontological sites
where at risk. Consequently, the EIR should contain an archeological and
paleontological survey to determine if the proposed project would adversely
impact archeological or paleontological sites. Section 30244 of the Coastal Act
requires that where development would adversely impact archeological or
paleontological resources identified by the State Historic Preservation Officer,
that reasonable mitigation measures will be required. Potential measures to
assure the proper execution of archeological surveys that will be used to for
determining project impacts on cultural resources include, but are not limited to:
1) peer review in conformance with the Commission's archeological guidelines,
2) consultation with appropriate Native American organizations, and 3) Native
American review of grading operations and the handling of any archeological
resources uncovered.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project at this stage of the
planning process. We look forward to working with the City of Newport Beach
and the applicant on the LCP amendment; Development Agreement and coastal
development permit applications. Please feel free to contact me at
562-590-5071 with any questions.

Dear Mr. Alford,
Thank you for the opportunity to review the Mitigated Negative Declaration for
the Newport Dunes Hotel project in the City of Newport Beach. The following
comments are those of the Commission staff based upon the applicable policies
' of Chapter 3 of the California Coastal Act and the Coastal Commission's past
actions on the subject site and surrounding Newport Dunes. The entire project
site lies within the coastal zone and is therefore under the jurisdiction of
the Coastal Commission.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed project is to construct a 700,000 sq. ft., 600 unit, full service
hotel or a 400 unit hotel and 100 timeshare units. The destination resort
will also include swimming pools; health, fitness and recreation facilities;
children's facility; dining areas; ballrooms and meeting rooms; retail space;
parking garages and landscaped garden areas on 30 acres of the 100 acre
Newport Dunes site. The project site is located in the City of Newport Beach,
on Upper Newport Bay, north of Pacific Coast Highway and east and south of
Sayside Drive. The site is state tidelands that were granted to the County
and is under long-term lease.
COASTAL COMMISSION REQUIRED APPROVALS
The CEQA document states that an amendment to the Newport Beach Local Coastal
Program Land Use Plan may be necessary and that Development Agreement approval
meat also be obtained under Required Permits and Approvals (page II-).
Required coastal development permits are not listed. Additionally, this
section does not indicate the approval authority for the necessary actions.
Under Project Timing (page II-) Coastal Commission approval is acknowledged
but the specific type of permit or approval is not specified.
Only the Land Use: Plan (LUP) of the City of Newport Local Coastal Program has
' been certified by the Commission. After the Commission certifies a local
government's Implementation Program to carry out the LUP the Local Coastal
Program is fully certified and coastal development permit authority is turned
over to the local government.

However, for tidelands, submerged lands and public trust lands the Commission
retains permit jurisdiction even after LCP certification. For these areas the
LCP serves as guidance. The Chapter 3 policies of the Coastal Act is the
standard of review in the coastal development permit process for the areas of
retained Commission jurisdiction.
The land use designation of the project site contained in the certified Land
Use Plan is "Recreational and Environmental Open Space". Permitted uses
include active and passive parks, golf courses, yacht clubs, marina support
facilities, aquatic facilities, tennis courts, private recreation facilities
and similar used, The proposed destination resort project including 700,000
sq. ft. of development is not an allowable use under the current land use
designation. Therefore an amendment to the certified Land Use Plan must be
obtained from the Coastal Commission.
Additionally, building permits may not be issued by the local government for
the project site until a coastal development permit is approved by the Coastal
Commission. A coastal development permit application would be acted on by the
Commission subsequent to a Land Use Plan amendment. Finally, a Development
Agreement is not effective within the coastal zone unless it is also approved
by the Coastal Commission.
COASTAL COMMISSION'S AUTHORITY UNDER CEOA
The City of Newport Beach has determined that the preparation of a Mitigated
Negative Declaration is the appropriate action under CEQA for the proposed
project. This document is intended to provide information on the proposed
project's environmental impacts for purposes of obtaining an amendment to the
City's Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan, approval of a Development
Agreement and coastal development permits, among other permits and approvals.
Pursuant to Section 21080.5 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
the Commission's local coastal program (LCP) review and approval procedures
have been found by the Resources Agency to be functionally equivalent to
environmental review process required of local governments. Instead, the CEQA
responsibilities are assigned to the Coastal Commission. However, under
Section 21080.5 of CEQA, the Commission is relievBd of the responsibility to
prepare an environmental impact report for each LCP or LCP amendment.
Nevertheless, the Commission is required, in approving a LCP or LCP amendment,
to find that the LCP conforms with the provisions of CEQA. The Commission is
also required to make this finding in approving coastal development permit
applications.
For the reasons detailed below, Commission staff does not agree that the
proposed project has no significant adverse environmental effects which have
not been eliminated or reduced to a level of insignificance with the
imposition of the proposed mitigation measures. Pursuant to the Coastal
Commission's CEQA equivalency status in the review of LCP amendment
submittals, additional environmental analysis will be requested when the local
government submits the LCP amendment for Commission action.
COASTAL ACT CONSISTENCY ANALYSIS
The proposed project as described in the Mitigated Negative Declaration will
have significant adverse environmental effects which will not be eliminated or
reduced to a level of insignificant with the imposition of the proposed
I
I
I

Newport Dunes Hotel
Mitigated Negative Declaration
Page 3
mitigation measures. The proposed project is inconsistent with the Chapter 3
policies of the Coastal Act and with past Commission actions on the coastal
development permits and permit amendments for the Newport Dunes area. _
Specifically, the proposed project is inconsistent with the public access and
public recreation policies of the Coastal Act.
Public Access and Public Recreation
M
The proposed project is inconsistent with Sections 30210, 30211, 30213, 30220,
30222, 30223, and 30224 of the California Coastal Act (Public Resources Code,
Division 20). These sections of the Public Resources Code require that new
development: provide and conspicuously post maximum public access and
recreational opportunities; not interfere with existing public access to the
sea; protect, encourage, and where feasible provide lower cost visitor and
recreational facilities; protect water -oriented recreational activities;
protect the recreational use and development of waterfront land suitable for
such use; protect coastal recreational uses by reserving upland areas for
necessary support services and facilities; and encourage increased
recreational boating use by providing dry storage areas and public launching
facilities and limiting non -water dependent land uses that preclude boating.
support facilities.
The Mitigated Negative Declaration indicates that the project site is
currently developed with a portion of the existing 400+ space Recreational
Vehicle Park. Recreational vehicle parks are considered lower cost visitor
and recreational facilities. Additionally, they are lower cost overnight
accommodations. Therefore the existing RV spaces are protected under Section
30213 of the Coastal Act.
`
Section 30213 of the Coastal Act states, in
part:
Lower cost visitor and recreational facilities shall be protected,
A
encouraged, and, where feasible, provided. Developments providing
recreational opportunities are preferred.
The proposed Newport Dunes Hotel project does not include RV facilities.
However, one hundred fifty of the existing RV spaces will be eliminated.
There are no proposed mitigation measures to off -set the loss of these lower
cost visitor and recreational overnight facilities. The coastal zone of
Orange County has an abundance of hotel rooms. Unfortunately, full service RV
facilities are not as abundant in the coastal zone of Orange County. The
Mitigated Negative Declaration does not indicate the room rates of the
proposed hotel. Therefore it can not be determined if the lower cost RV
facilities are being replaced by comparable lower cost hotel rooms.
For the reasons stated above, the proposed Newport Dunes Hotel project is
inconsistent with Section 30213 of the Coastal Act and therefore will have a
significant adverse impact on the environment.
'
The Mitigated Negative Declaration further states that the proposed project
site also contains parking spaces for the existing marina and the existing
restaurant as well as "interim" boat, trailer and recreational vehicle
storage area. The number of parking spaces and amount of storage area was not
specified. Although the proposed project will provide marina parking, it is
unclear whether the displaced marina parking spaces.will be.replaced on a one
to one basis. The location of the proposed marina parking spaces in
relationship to the marina was also not specified. There is no mention of the
4;
newporc uunos nocei
Mitigated Negative Declaration
Page 4
replacement of the boat, trailer and RV storage areas also being displaced.
Coastal Act Sections 30210, 30211, 30220, 30221, 30223 and 30224 protect
existing public access to the water and recreational boating use and state, in
part:
Section 30210 of the coastal Act states:
In carrying out the requirement of Section 4 of Article X of the
California Constitution, maximum access, which shall be conspicuously
posted, and recreational opportunities shall be provided for all the
people consistent with public safety needs and the need to protect public
rights, rights of private property owners, and natural resource areas from
overuse.
Section 30211 of the Coastal Act states:
Development shall not interfere with the public's right of access to the
sea where acquired through use or legislative authorization# including,
but not limited to, the use of dry sand and rocky coastal beaches to the
first line of terrestrial vegetation.
Section 30220 of the Coastal Act states:
Coastal areas suited for water -oriented recreational activities that
cannot readily be provided at inland water areas shall be protected for
such uses.
Section 30221 of the Coastal Act states:
oceanfront land suitable for recreational use shall be protected for
recreational use and development unless present and foreseeable future
demand for public or commercial recreational activities that could be
accommodated on the property is already adequately provided for in the
area.
Section 30223 of the Coastal Act states:
Upland areas necessary to support coastal recreational used shall be
reserved for such uses, where feasible.
Section 30224 of the Coastal Act states:
Increased recreational boating use of coastal waters shall be encouraged,
in accordance with this division, by developing dry storage areas,
increasing public launching facilities, providing additional berthing
space in existing harbors, limiting non -water -dependent land uses that
congest access corridors and preclude boating support facilities,
providing harbors of refuge, and by providing for new boating facilities
in natural harbors, new protected water areas, and in areas dredged from
dry land.
The project area contains an existing 430-450 slip marina, and a multiple lane
boat launch ramp and 400 spaces for dry boat storage, according to the
Mitigated Negative Declaration. Boating is a water dependent activity that is
protected under Coastal Act Sections 30220 and 30224. Section 30224 requires
' Newport Dunes Hotel
Mitigated Negative Declaration
' Page 5 •
that recreational boating be increased in the coastal zone. One way to
protect and increase recreational boating is to retain existing and provide
additional dry boat storage areas. Non -water dependent land uses -that
preclude boating_,support.._-facilities�nus -be ismited. The proposed hotel
' project, on -water dependent land use will displace both marina parking and
dry boat storage area. Some of the marina parking will reportedly be replaced
in an unspecified location. This displacement of dry boat storage area and
parking for boat users is clearly inconsistent with Sections 30220 and 30224
�• of the Coastal Act. 'Therefore the proposed project will have significant
adverse impacts on the environment.
One of the major policies of the Coastal Act is the protection and provision
of maximum public access to the sea. The existing swimming lagoon on the
Newport Dunes Resort site is also part of the sea via Upper Newport Bay. The
' site contains many activities that provide lower cost recreation and access to
the sea and shoreline and enhances coastal recreation opportunities. There is
an existing sandy beach and public parking, a.mile-long pedestrian promenade
and bridge around the lagoon, restrooms and showers, beach equipment and
bicycle rental facilities, food, drink and groceries, playground, transient
and guest dock facilities, and public boat launch facilities in addition to
the marina. If existing parking is not maintained and enhanced public access
' will be adversely impacted, inconsistent with Sections 30210 and 30211 of the
Coastal Act.
The Newport Dunes Resort site also contains existing restaurant facilities.
The project site contains parking for Anthony's restaurant. The proposed
development will also include additional restaurant uses. The Mitigated
Negative Declaration is unclear as to whether the proposed restaurant parking
is to support the proposed restaurant uses or whether replacement parking for
the existing restaurant, which is being displaced, will also be provided.
Under the Coastal recreational boating is to be increased. The proposed
project does not increase recreational boating use. Further, the proposed
project is inconsistent with sections 30220 and 30224 of the Coastal Act if
all displaced parking facilities, including dry boat storage areas, are not
replaced on a one to one basis and in a location that protects recreational
boating use.
Additionally, Section 30252 of the Coastal Act requires that new development
provide adequate parking facilities in order to maintain and enhance existing
public access and recreation opportunities. The proposed project includes
either a 600 room hotel or a'400 room hotel and 100 timeshare units. However
' the number of parking spaces being provided is the same under either
scenario. The intensive resort is to be a full service facility with
additional ancillary uses that appear to be available to non -hotel guests.
The project must assure that the parking demand for the destination resort
will be accommodated without adversely impacting the existing water -dependent,
water related and lower cost overnight uses of the project site and the larger
100 Newport Dunes site.
COMMISSION ACTION ON PREVIOUS PERMITS FOR THE PROJECT SITE
The Coastal Commission has taken several actions on permit applications for
the Newport Dunes aquatic park site. Application 5-83-334(Alexander's Back
Bay Club) approved an addition to the existing restaurant which is located
adjacent to the proposed hotel site. In ipproving that project the Commission
required the applicant to set the addition back from the shoreline to allow a
public walkway between the restaurant and the lagoon.

in 1984 the Commission approved permit application 5-83-962 for redevelopment
of 72 acres of the 100 acre site. The project included a pedestrian bridge
across the mouth of the lagoon, a 35 foot high, 275 room family inn adjacent
to Anthony's restaurant, the addition of 200 slips to the existing 230 slip
marina, the addition of water, sewer and electricity to the existing 310 unit
recreational vehicle park, 300 unit dry boat storage, a 10-lane public launch
ramp and a 5,000 sq. ft. marina business building. The applicant was the
County of Orange and Newport Dunes, Inc.
The Commission required three special conditions: that the development
provide an eight foot wide public walkway adjacent to the lagoon, connecting
with the required walkway in front of Anthony's restaurant; required that
pedestrians and bicyclists be allowed free admission to the day use
facilities; that they attempt to get the local transit authority to locate a
bus stop on the project site; to submit drainage plans that protect the lagoon
water quality; and to submit building plans for the proposed new structures.
The application noted that 1900 parking spaces would be provided although the
parking requirement based on the individual uses was 1821 spaces. Eight
hundred parking spaces were provided for beach day use.
The application was subsequently extended several times and transferred to
Anne L. Evans. There were also three permit amendments. The first amendment
increased the R.V. park by 134 spaces (for a total of 444 spaces), deleted the
marina building, relocated and enlarged Anthony's restaurant to 15,000 sq.
ft., eF located the existing Quality Restaurant t sid q the
laIoon to theiTest side --to be -incorporated- into_the family_inn_dev9,JgRT nnt,
and re aoed-NtScked dry boat storage with at grade storage, among other
improvements. - — - — —
The Commission required that the applicant submit signage plans that clearly
indicated to the day use public the location and type of public amenities
provided on -site, that parking spaces be located within a reasonable distance
to the facilities they are intended to serve, and allowed the applicant to
seek the placement of a public access sign at the bus stop at Jamboree and
Back Bay Drive in lieu of providing a bus stop on site. The total number of
parking spaces to be provided was 2045 spaces. Of the total 1011 spaces were
for beach, day use (including boat trailer parking), 327 for the marina, 160
spaces for Anthony's on -site (with the remainder of the 283 spaces to be
provided off -site), 20 spaces for the boat launch, and 266 spaces for the
family inn development. The 2045 parking spaces did not include the RV spaces
or the boat storage areas.
The second amendment allowed the addition of an entry gate and gate house, the
dredging of the marina, the placement of suitable material on the beach and
the replacement of two restrooms. Mitigation for the loss 13,000 sq. ft. of
marine habitat was the creation of 26,700 sq. ft. of intertidal habitat at
' Ahellmaker Island.
The final amendment in 1990 was for the demolition of 2 existing office
buildings originally approved for renovation and construction of 2 replacement
buildings totaling 9,600 sq. ft. to include marina office and boat -user
support facilities.
A review of the Commission's permit history for the Newport Dunes site
indicates that the retention of lower cost recreational uses (beach,
continuous pedestrian walkway and bridge, full service R.V. park, and other
day use facilities) and water -dependent and boater support uses have been the
M

,* Newport Dunes Hotel
Mitigated Negative Declaration

principal concern for the use of the public tidelands and adjacent area. It
was noted in the original 1983 permit that the fee for a R.V. space ranged
from $12 to $28 per night depending on the size and location of the space and
whether it had full service. The day use beach fee was $2.00 per adult and
1 half that for children, dry boat storage was $60.00 per month and the weekend
boat launch fee was $7.00.

The Commission approved a 275 unit overnight lodging facility that was clearly
intended to provide lower cost overnight accommodations. The Commission
required that even the restaurant be geared to families with children and that
40% of the motel or family inn room contain kitchen facilities in order to
make the facility more affordable for families. The provision of adequate
parking and its location in reference to the uses it serves was also of
concern to the Commission.
The project proposed in the Mitigated Negative Declaration is inconsistent
with the Commission's past actions for the area in that existing lower cost
overnight facilities (R.V. spaces) are being significantly reduced, boating
support marina parking and dry boat storage is also being displaced. Parking
for the existing restaurant is also being displaced. The document indicates
that 2220 parking spaces will be provided and indicates that a parking surplus
will result based on a parking demand study. Commission staff did not review
the parking study. However, it is unclear whether the displaced restaurant
parking will be replaced and the number of marina parking spaces that will b
provided. Therefore the parking surplus may not be as stated.
In addition to the loss of the Coastal Act preferred facilities the 275 unit
lower cost motel or family inn is being replaced by a substantially larger
destination resort facility with 400 to 600 rooms, including timeshare units.
The destination resort does not appear to be planned as a lower cost overnight
facility that will cater to families. This development will result in a
significant change to the character of site.
For the reasons detailed above Commission staff believes that the proposed
Newport Dunes Hotel project, with the mitigation measures outlined in the
Mitigated Negative Declaration, is inconsistent with the applicable Coastal
Act policies as well as past Commission actions for the project and
surrounding site.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project at this stage of the
planning process. We look forward to working with the City of Newport Beach
and the applicant on the LCP amendment, Development Agreement and coastal
development permit applications. Please feel free to contact me at (562)

SUBJECT: Comments on Notice of Preparation for Planned Community Development Plan for
Newport Dunes Resort
Dear Mr. Alford:
These comments on the Notice of Preparation (NOP) for the proposed Newport
Dunes Resort (Hotel and Conference Center) project are submitted by Stop Polluting Our
Newport (SPON).
' The following points represent the general concerns that SPON has about this
project and those which should be thoroughly analyzed in the EIR.
THE MASS AND SCALE OF THE PROJECT AND ITS VISUAL IMPACT ON ADJACENT
' NEIGHBORHOODS AND PUBLIC PARKS. BEACHES AND ECOLOGICAL RESERVE AREAS.
Graphics should be prepared to show the height, mass and scale impacts from all
II
I
perspectives, particularly from the low-lying bay areas where the character of the area has
been low intensity, low-rise, and a relatively peaceful interface with the bay and ecological
reserve area.
THE OPERATIONAL AND ACTIVITY ASPECTS (NUMBER OF VISITORS, CARS, SERVICE VEHICLES,
EMPLOYEES INCLUDING ADDITIONS FOR MAJOR EVENTS) OF THE MAJOR COMPONENTS.
Complete traffic data should be prepared showing the significant impacts on traffic,
including the cumulative impact of unacceptable traffic levels of service (in excess of LOS D)
at Pacific Coast Highway/Balboa-Superior, Coast Highway/Riverside Drive, Coast
Highway/Bayside Drive, Coast Highway/Jamboree, Coast Highway/Marguerite and
Jamboree/Eastbluff-Ford Road.
II
SPON/Newport Dunes NOP/9/14/98
Page 2
The EIR should study the significant traffic and pedestrian safety impacts along Bayside
Drive leading to the project site during major events.
The EIR should analyze the significant adverse impacts on the public trail along the
property line fence abutting the mobile home park. Impacts include noise and air pollution
from adjacent proposed service road and visual and aesthetic impacts associated with the
nearby parking garage and hotel structures which create a visual wall near the trail and
mobile homes, potentially blocking sunlight and significantly altering views.
The potentially significant air quality impacts as a result of the parking garage and
circulation system operations during major events where cars are idling or backed up while
waiting to enter or leave the site should be analyzed.
The EIR should completely account for and analyze the impacts of the alteration in
existing landform and land use. Apparently 85,000 cubic yards of dredged materials placed on
the site will be removed. This could also result In significant truck trips during the
construction period. The Mitigated Negative Declaration(MND) did not disclose whether the
dredge material contains toxic constituents which could also have significant health -related
impacts.
All noise issues should be accounted for and analyzed for impact on adjacent residential
areas and ecological reserve. The hotel, conference rooms and potential use for outdoor parties
and music festivals can have a severe and uncontrollable noise impact which is amplified even
more when carried across the water.
The information which should be analyzed related to use of the facilities must include:
number of events in the conference and meeting facilities, in the gardens and other buildings;
the maximum potential size of the events and activities; the number of people attending the
events and activities and staffing needs; the number of car trips generated by events and the
likely hours of those trips; the number of parking spaces needed for events, in addition to the
hotel and restaurant uses; the service activities, such as timing of deliveries and frequency of
deliveries and service area uses; the construction activities and trips generated, including, but
not limited to, the truck trips associated with the removal of dredge material.
All potential lighting for the hotel, conference center, parking areas, garden areas and
related facilities needs to be carefully analyzed as this project is being proposed in an area
that is currently very quiet and dark at night.
DRAINAGE PATTERNS AND SURFACE RUNOFF NEEDS TO BE ANALYZED FOR ITS POTENTIAL
NEGATIVE EFFECT ON UPPER NEWPORT BAY
Given the level of effort being put forth by all public agencies to clean up the bay and
make it meet the standards for health, including body contact sports and shell fish collection,
the project should meet performance standards which would require runoff volumes and
quality to be equal to or superior to existing runoff.
',_J
SPON/Newport Dunes NOP/9/14/98
Page 3
The MND indicated that mitigation would occur by directing runoff to the larger Upper
Newport Bay in order to protect the Dunes lagoon. This is not acceptable without a complete
analysis of its affect on the larger bay's ecology and water quality.
THE EFFECT OF THIS PROJECT ON SENSITIVE SPECIES AND MIGRATORY BIRDS USING UPPER
NEWPORT BAY.
Some of the species utilizing the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve utilize the
Dunes on a marginal basis as well. Additional construction and human activity will further
degrade the value of the marginal habitat provided.

Report.

' SUBJECT: Notice of Preparation (NOP) of a Draft Environmental Impact
Report (EIR) for the Newport Dunes Resort Hotel
' Staff of the California State Lands Commission (CSLC) has reviewed the subject
NOP. Under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City is the Lead
Agency and the CSLC is a Responsible and/or Trustee Agency for any and all projects
which could directly or indirectly affect sovereign lands, their accompanying Public Trust
resources or uses, and the public easement in navigable waters.
The CSLC has jurisdiction and authority over all ungranted tidelands, submerged
lands, and the beds of navigable rivers, sloughs, lakes, etc. The CSLC has certain
residual and review authority for tide and submerged lands legislatively granted in trust
to local jurisdictions (Public Resources Code Sections 6301 and 6306). All tide and
submerged lands, granted or ungranted, as well as navigable rivers, sloughs, etc. are
' impressed with the Common Law Public Trust.
The Public Trust is a sovereign public property right held by the State or its
delegated trustee for the benefit of all the people. This right limits the uses of these
lands to waterborne commerce, navigation, fisheries, open space, recreation, or other
recognized Public Trust purposes. A lease from the Commission is required for any
portion of a project extending onto State-owned lands which are under its exclusive
jurisdiction.

The proposed Newport Dunes Resort Hotel will be located on lands which were
legislatively transferred to the County of Orange pursuant to Chapter 526, Statutes of '
1919, as amended, with minerals reserved by the State. As such, the County has
management responsibility for these lands and, as trustee, has an obligation to ensure
that the proposed use of sovereign lands is consistent with the Public Trust and the
granting statute under which the lands are held.
We appreciate the opportunity to comment and look forward to reviewing the
draft EIR. If you have any questions concerning the CSLC's jurisdiction, please contact

SUBJECT: NOP for the Newport Dunes Resort•
Dear Mr. Alford:
The above referenced item is a Notice of Preparation (NOP) of a Draft
Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) for the City of Newport Beach. The proposed
project is a planned community development plan that includes the construction
of a full -service destination resort hotel. The hotel,will provide 400
guestrooms and 100 time-share units. The 100 time-share units will be designed
with the capability to be split or "locked off" for a maximum total of 600
rentable rooms. Approximately 20 percent of the guestrooms will be suites.
Hotel amenities include swimming pools; health, fitness and recreation
facilities; children's facilities; dining facilities; ballrooms and meeting
' rooms; retail space; a parking structure and surface parking areas; and
landscaped garden areas. The 100-acre project site is at 101 North Bayside
Drive.
The County of Orange has reviewed the NOP and offers the followig comments:
WATER QUALITY
1. Runoff from the project, if completed as proposed, would enter the sensitive
waters of Newport Bay. Both Upper and Lower Newport Bays have been
officially recognized as "impaired" water bodies by ,the Santa Ana Regional
Water Quality Control Board, the State Water Resources Control Board, and
the State and Federal EPA. The exact means by which urban runoff results'in
' a loss of impairment of Beneficial Uses in the Bay is still being studied
and, as a result, any environmental analysis for this project may need to
perform original topical research. Although the Federal and State resource
' agencies would be best placed to identify the specific level of research
they feel will be necessary to fully identify potential impacts to resources
for which they have management responsibility, a check of past envrionmental
documents for major prpoposed projects on Newport Bay shows the following
' types of project -specific research having been conducted:
A) Potential changes in water column characteristics, such as temperature,
' turbidity, the content of dissolved oxygen, salinity, biochemical oxygen
demand, dissolved and suspended metals, nutrients, pesticide residues,
and pathogens;
Mr. Patrick J. Alford
Page 2
B) Potential changes in water surface characteristics, such as temperature,
salinity, algal growth, floating trash, debris and/or oil sheens;
C) Potential changes in sediment characteristics, such as salinity,
sand/silt/clay balance, content of dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen
demand, dissolved and precipitated metals, nutrients, pesticide residues,
pathogens, embedded trash and debris, and the potential for resuspension
of any element(s) of the sediment back into the waters;
D) Potential hydrologic changes, such as changes in water depths to sediment
at any given point in the Bay (which has enormous impact on the nature of
marine vegetation);
E) Potential changes in the existing benthic invertebrate community; and/or
F) Potential basal habitat changes which could indirectly affect fish, bird,
shellfish, and/or insect populations.
After the conduct of appropriate research, reasonable and feasible
mitigation measures might be developed to address potential project impacts.
2. Page five lists water quality as possible environmental impact as a
result of development. Upper Newport Bay could be effected. Since it is
an impaired water body, it is particularly important that a discussion of
compliance with the County's non -point source National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System ( NPDES) program be included. The city is a co-permittee
with the County. Wording similar to the County's standard WQ1 (attached)
condition will suffice.
3. The project should also comply with the State's non -point source
program by obtaining a General Construction Permit,
BIKEWAYS
4. An existing Class 1, paved off -road bikeway is immediately adjacent to the
site. Development of this project should not preclude the use of this
popular facility.
.5. The Project should link and possibly extend this existing public bikeway
(see OCTA's Commuter Bikeways Strategic Plan and the recently published
map of existing Orange County Bikeways).
6. The project should encourage alternative transportation for visitors and
employees to the site including but not limited to bikeways and other modes
of public transportation.
CULTURAL/HISTORICAL
7. The table of probable environmental impacts notes the potential for
subsurface resources, however, there may be cultural resources in that area
not "buried" that may be disturbed also. In adition to the archaeological
and paleontological resources, do historical resources exist within the
project area also?
Mr. Patrick J. Alford

' WASTE MANAGEMENT
S. The California Integrated Waste Management Board requires that all counties
have an approved Countywide Integrated Waste Management Plan (CIWMP). To
be approved, the CIWMP must demonstrate sufficient solid waste disposal
capacity outside of the County's jurisdiction. Orange County's CIWMP,
approved in 1996, contains future solid waste disposal demand based on the
County population projections previously adopted by the Board of
Supervisors. The County's database shows that the Orange County landfill
system has capacity in excess of thirty (30) years. This is well above the
' fifteen -year threshold established by the California Integrated Waste
Management Board.
' The County of Orange owns and operates three active landfills. The Frank R.
Bowerman Landfill is the closest facility to the project, and will likely
be the solid waste facility receiving the waste. Notwithstanding, the City
of Newport Beach is under contract to the County's Integrated Waste
Management Department (IWMD) to commit all of its waste to the County
landfill system (not to a particular facility) until the year 2007. At the
same time, the landfill system is accepting additional waste from outside
Orange County. Under these circumstances, it has been agreed that should
the cumulative effect of development cause the daily tonnage ceiling of a
particular facility to be exceeded, the waste being imported to that
facility will be reduced by a corresponding amount. Consequently, it may
be assumed that adequate capacity for the subject project is available for
the foreseeable future.
9. Notwithstanding the availability of capacity in the County system, the
State of California requires that by the year 2000, each city and county
reduce by at least 509,; the amount of waste going into landfills that each
city or county had landfill -disposed in the year 1990. Waste haulers are
expected to fulfill that mandate by recycling residential and commercial
waste collected. Project developers are also expected'to reduce the amount
' of construction -generated waste by the same amount.
Thank you for the opportunity to respond to the NOP. Please send one complete
copy of the DEIR to me at the above address. if you have any questions, please
contact me or feel free to call Charlotte Harryman directly. Charlotte may be

Re: City of Newport Beach, Notice of Preparation for the Newport Dunes Resort
The California Department of Transportation, Aeronautics Program, has reviewed the
above -referenced document with respect to CEQA. The following comments are offered for
your consideration.
' The proposal is for a "full -service destination resort hotel" in the vicinity of the Newport
Dunes Aquatic Park. The project site is located approximately three miles southwest of John
Wayne Airport, just outside the 60 Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) airport noise
contour. As reflected in the Orange County Airport Land Use Plan noise contours, aircraft
departing John Wayne Airport will overfly the project site. The Draft EIR should address
' airport -related noise and safety impacts associated with these overflights.
The proposal should be submitted for review to the Orange County Airport Land Use
Commission (ALUC) and to John Wayne Airport for consideration.
' Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this proposal. We look forward
to reviewing the Draft EIR. If you have any questions regarding our comments, please call me at

Notice of Preparation of a Draft Environmental Impact Report for
The Newport Dunes Resort: City of Newport Beach
Dear Mr. Alford:
The South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) appreciates the opportunity to
comment on the above -mentioned document. The AQMD's comments are recommendations
regarding the analysis of potential air quality impacts from the proposed project that should
be included in the Draft Environmental Impact Report.
Air Ouality Analysis .
' The AQMD adopted its California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Air Quality
Handbook in 1993 to assist other public agencies with the preparation of air quality analyses.
The AQMD recommends that the Lead Agency use this Handbook when preparing its air
quality analysis. Copies.,of.the Handbook are available from the AQMD Subscription
Services Department by calling (909) 396-3720.
' The Lead Agency should identify any potential adverse air quality impacts that could occur
from all phases of the project and all air pollutant sources related to the project. Air quality
impacts from both construction and operations should be considered. Construction -related
' air quality impacts typically include, but are not limited to, emissions from the use of heavy-
duty equipment for grading, earth loadinglunloading, paving, architectural coatings, off -road
mobile sources (e.g., heavy-duty construction equipment), and on -road mobile sources (e.g.,
' construction worker vehicle trips, material transport trips). Operation -related air quality
impacts may include, but are not limited to, emissions from stationary sources (e.g., boilers),
area sources (e.g., solvents and coatings), and vehicular trips (e.g., on- and off -road tailpipe
t emissions, and entrained dust). Air quality impacts from indirect sources, that is, sources that
generate or attract "vehicular trips should be included in the evaluation. An analysis of all

toxic air contaminant impacts due to the decommissioning or use of equipment potentially
generating such air pollutants should also be included.
Mitigation Measures
In the event that the project generates significant adverse air quality impacts, CEQA requires
that all feasible mitigation measures be utilized during project construction and operation to
minimize or eliminate significant adverse air quality impacts. To assist the Lead Agency
with identifying possible mitigation measures for this project, please refer to Chapter 11 of
the AQMD CEQA Handbook for sample air quality mitigation measures. Additionally,
AQMD's Rule 403 - Fugitive Dust, and the Rule 403 Implementation Handbook contain
numerous measures for controlling construction -related emissions that should be considered
for use as CEQA mitigation if not otherwise required.
Data Sources
AQMD rules and relevant air quality reports and data are available by calling the AQMD
Public Information Center at (909) 396-3600. Much of the information available through the
Public Information Center is also available via the AQMD's World Wide Web Homepage
(http://www.agmd.gov).
The AQMD is willing to work with the Lead Agency to ensure that project -related emissions
are accurately identified, categorized and evaluated. Please call Charles Blankson of my
staff at (909) 396-3304 if you have any questions regarding this letter.

' TO: Patrick Alford, Senior Planner
' FROM: Sharon Wood, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: EQAC Response to Newport Dunes Resort NOP
' In reviewing my notes of the EQAC meeting of September 21, 1998, I discovered one additional
comment from the Committee that was not incorporated into the subcommittee report I
' transmitted to you last week. That comment is that the noise analysis should include the
cumulative impact of all the project and all existing noise sources (e.g., Pacific Coast Highway,
John Wayne Airport) on Bayside Village.
In addition, I suggest that the consultant review the minutes of the EQAC meeting for any
additional issues and discussion on the Committee's comments.

Sharon Wood noted the deadline for the article for the newsletter to be in is October 1,
1998. Kelly Sylvester handed out the article she had written for EQAC. A few minor

changes will be made and turned in to Ms. Wood.
4. Subcommittee Report on Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration for Newport Dunes Hotel on site
'
located on Upper Newport Bay, east and south of Bayside Drive and north of Pacific Coast
Highway.
Patrick Bartolic stated the challenge the subcommittee had was to take the Mitigated Negative
,
Declaration for Newport Dunes Hotel and come up with items that were missing or should be
addressed in the environmental impact report, Judith Ware gave a summary of key issues that
need clarification. Ms. Ware distributed the subcommittee's list of bullet point items for review.
'
Chairman Bigi asked if there was anything on the list that was considered more important or
critical, Mr. Bartolic stated the Increase in height was a concern, and there is no plan for anyone
to use the docks. He stated there is no public docking or access from the water. Ms, Ware
stated they discussed Coastal Commission with staff planner. She stated they are trying to put
together what is Important for the City and felt this a good opportunity to mitigate. Judith Ware
stated there was not clear detail as to what was approved, Ms. Wood asked if she was referring
to the County approval. She stated the environmental impact has to analyze from ground, what
we have today, not from what has been approved previously. Tom Hyans asked what happens
to the money collected by TOT. Ms, Ware stated that the Issues the subcommittee should be
talking about are the effect on the quality of life. Virginia Herberts was concerned of the effect
'
project might have on the cliffs from the ocean level, She felt that the 87-foot height would
Impact all the homes, Ms. Wood stated that the height and bulk of the building that Is proposed
would be analyzed in the environmental Impact report.
'
Barry Eaton stated he thought that the NOP was minimal compared to the Banning Ranch
document that was much more comprehensive. He stated this NOP states that there will be
impacts but does not state how they are going to look at the impacts or what they are and does
'
not list any alternatives, Mr. Eaton stated that one of the best advantages of the Banning Ranch
NOP was that they did list the proposed alternative, and if EQAC disagreed with them they could
state so, Mr. Eaton stated that the NOP does not state that the project would deal with the
'
existing situation, which was a key issue raised by SPON, Mr. Eaton also noted that in the
Mitigated Negative Declaration there were proposed mitigation measures that were going to be
deferred until later in the process and this was another Issue raised by SPON,
,
Mr. Bartolic stated the subcommittee's goal was to make sure that the EIR addressed all the
issues they had concerns about. He stated that at this point, those Issues were not addressed.
Mr. Bartolic stated he felt that once the EIR was completed, the subcommittee could discuss
'
what it means to them with the EQAC committee and together they could make
recommendations to the City Council about the way they feel the City should go. Ms. Wood
stated they would be asking the subcommittee to review and comment on the draft
'
environmental Impact report also, to be sure that it satisfactorily addresses all the issues that
EQAC would be most Interested in, Ms. Wood stated the staff is recommending LSA to the City
Council to prepare the environmental Impact report.
,
Ms. Watt suggested that under Land Use and planning, "operational characteristics" could be
added. She stated that operational characteristics should Include all the functions, including
outdoors, and their cumulative effect. Ms. Watt stated the effects would be the extra service
t
people, the area they would use for traffic, the times they would be there for trucks for parking,
the noise which travels across the waiter, the hours. Ms. Watt stated for aesthetics, mass and
scale could be added. She stated that although it is Included, they could be more specific
,
because if it is bigger or higher than anything in the whole area, then that is the issue.

Mr. McDaniel noted on the review points page that the bullets might mean something to some
' people but not to others. He asked if it would be going more in depth. Chairman Big! noted to
Ms. Ware that some of the things she was saying regarding the report could be more fully
verbalized in full sentences. Ms. Ware stated that the City gave the subcommittee a list that they
' went through. She stated that the handout of review points were a summary of the
subcommittee meeting, Mr. Bartolic stated that the intent was to discuss the bullet points at the
meeting and bring the report back to another meeting. Ms, Wood stated that 'there was no
more time because the Notice of Preparation review period is up. Ms. Ware stated that the
' committee needed to comment on the bullet points and fax it to them. Mr. McDaniel stated his
concern is that the committee's concerns about noise and trash pick-up, ingress/egress and
traffic are correctly understood.
Chairman Bigi asked the committee if there was anything on the list they would take exception
to or if there is anything they would add to it. Marge Pantzar stated noise, and specifically
referred to trash removal if it is done at night or in the morning it could be heard for miles. Ms.
' Pantzar suggested the commercial maintenance hours be changed to different times of day
Instead of at night or early morning.
' Carol Hoffman stated that what the committee is asking for is that the staff directs the consultant
to include a very significant level of detail in the analysis. Ms. Hoffman stated also that specific
mitigation measures that deal with their issues be stated. She suggested the committee direct
the staff to ensure the environmental consultant and the applicant know that the decision to
make the environmental impact report is not a light one, the committee really wants the
environmental impact report in detail and that the committee wants to review the detail of the
impacts as well as a high level of detail in the mitigation measures.
' Ms. Hoffman also noted that in regard to view impacts, there is a technique that developers are
using and making available to the environmental impact consultants, and it is called view
' simulations. Ms. Hoffman stated that visual simulations are created where they digitize the
actual elevations, Ms. Hoffman stated the digital analysis will create what the project will look
like when it is done and can show the viewpoints of significant concern to the community. Ms.
' Hoffman stated that the tools, if requested, available to the environmental impact consultants
could 'be very helpful. Sharon Wood indicated this was done. for the Mitigated Negative
Declaration and additional views will be included in the environmental impact report.
Chairman Big! stated that Ms. Wood needs final input by the end of the week. Chairman Bigi
directed the subcommittee not to add anything that is not on the list since the full committee
has already reviewed it.
' Mr. Eaton stated he wanted to include an effective cumulative impact of noise, especially in
Bayside Village, both from the proposed project and the existing noise from highways, John
t Wayne Airport and other areas. Mr. Eaton stated that the Notice of Preparation does not
include that the comparisons will be with the existing environment and not the prior approved
project. Mr. Eaton stated the specific alternatives should be given exposure prior to their being
finalized. He stated the alternatives should be given public exposure prior to final selection.
' Sandra Glaser asked who comes up with the alternatives. Ms. Wood stated it was the
environmental impact consultant and the staff. One of the committee members asked if EQAC
could review alternatives, and Ms, Wood agreed to bring them to the committee.
' Ms. Herberts asked if the impact on the ecology in the Bay is addressed adequately. Ms. Wood
stated it is in the Water Quality section. Ms. Ware stated it was already addressed. Ms. Glaser
stated when the committee reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration, the impact on the
water was addressed. Ms. Glaser stated Ms. Herberts was referring to the upper ecological
preserve and how it impacts the Bay and are they addressing that. Ms. Ware stated that the
upper bay is included in the report.

Ms. O'Neil stated that residents of Dover Shores (which is right across the proposed project) are
concerned with the size of the project and that it would attract outdoor activities that would
create a great deal of noise, especially in the evenings, Ms, Ware stated that Issue would be
covered under operation hours. Chairman Bigl suggested it anyone else had any points to fax
them to Judith Ware or Patrick Bartolic. He stated they needed to be turned in to Ms. Wood by
Friday.
Status Report on General Plan Update/Quality of Ufe Discussion
Chairman Bigl stated that Ms. Wood would have a summary of the Quality of Ufe discussion on
the next agenda. He stated the quality of life Issues should be related to what goes Into the
General Plan. Ms. Wood stated the City Council did not authorize spending money on a
General Plan update, but directed that staff come back to them with a plan of attack, She
stated staff is getting Ideas from this committee and others to recommend to Council the Issues
that are most Important to be addressed in the General Plan update. Ms. Ware suggested that
a member of the City staff such as Patricia Temple, the Planning Director, make a presentation
to the committee on the background and the existing General Plan.
S. Workshop on California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Ms Wood provided the committee with a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) process
flow chart that illustrates the EIR process, and a lead agency decision to prepare an EIR chart
(attached). Ms. Wood also provided the committee with the City Council policy regarding
CEQA. She gave a brief summary of the purpose of CEQA, which is to provide information on
the possible environmental impacts of a project to the public and to decision -making bodies.
Ms, Wood informed the committee that CEQA does not require anyone to deny a project. If the
decision -making body wants to approve a project with environmental impacts they must let the
public know what the reasons are for approving the project.
Ms. Wood described the process through which it is determined if the action proposed Is or Is not
a project and how it is determined if an environmental Impact report is required. CEQA defines
a `project" as an action that has the potential for resulting in a physical change in the
environment. Projects Include improvements such as street widening, but not maintenance
activities such as street repair. Projects include both public projects and development projects
undertaken by the private sector.
She noted the first question is if a project is deemed exempt from environmental review. There
are two types of exemptions, statutory and categorical. Statutory exemptions are defined in the
law, and include things like setting fees, planning studies, emergency projects and projects that
are denied, Categorical exemptions are defined by a list of types of projects thatwiii not have a
significant Impact on the environment. Some examples are minor changes to existing facilities,
small structures such as single family houses (up to three) and minor subdivisions and variances.
In Newport Beach, these minor projects are reviewed by the Modifications Committee,
comprised of City staff, rather than at a Planning Commission public hearing. A Notice of
Exemption should be filed, and the public has thirty days to challenge it.
If the project is not exempt, an initial study is prepared, and on the basis of the Information ,
contained in the initial study, the lead agency determines whether a Negative Declaration or an
EIR should be prepared. A Negative Declaration may be used when there will be Impacts, as '
long as mitigation measures are Included that will reduce the Impacts to a level of non -
significance. This determination is made at the staff level, and the state law requires that it be
made within thirty days of receiving a complete application. There is a public review period of
twenty to thirty days, depending on whether the project needs a permit from a state agency. '
Ms. Wood stated that after the Negative Declaration and the project are approved by the
decision -making body, the City should file a Notice of Determination with the County. There are
thirty days for the decision to be challenged. The time period for challenging a Negative '

' Subject: Notice of Preparation for the Newport Dunes Resort
Dear W. Alford:
' The Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) for Orange County was recently copied on a letter
' to you from the Caltrans Aeronautics Program. However, it is unclear to us whether the resort
proposal is a project separate from the Four Seasons Hotel, on which we previously provided
comments regarding the protection of the navigable airspace surrounding John Wayne Airport.
As in the case of the Hotel, the Commission would be concerned with the project sponsor's
compliance with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Notification Requirements, under
' Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 77.13. Enclosed for your reference is a copy of FAA
Form 7460-1, which is required by FAR Part 77 as the notification/ determination document.
' Similarly, a separate issue incumbent upon the City to examine in the EIR is the question of
whether or not the project will trespass upon the Avigation Easement area, held by the County of
Orange, surrounding John Wayne Airport.
' Please clarify to this office whether or not the subject project is separate from the hotel project
on which we previously commented. To this end, please do not hesitate to contact me at the
number listed above.
