Location-: The proposed project is located in the City of Newport Beach, as shown on the attached exhibit. 2. Project Description: The work consists of constructing approximately 2000 feet of 12-inch water main in Fernleaf, Seaview, Carnation, and Ocean Boulevard, re- placing in part existing 2-inch and 6-inch mains. 3. Purpose of Project: To increase the reliability of water service, provide ade- quate'capacity for fire flows, and add operational flexibility to the existing water system in this portion of Corona del Mar. 4. Discussion of Environmental Impacts: The proposed improvements are consistent with City's General Plan Policies, require no additional right-of-way, and will not cause the relocation of any people or the disturbance of any buildings. Existing topography will not be altered, and there should be -no additional noise or pollution as a result of this project. The project will not affect the amount of water used within the City, and will not encourage development. There will be no long-term, irreversible or irretrievable effects on the en- vironment, and no significant short term effects. 5. Basis for Negative Declaration: The proposed project has been reviewed in con- junction with Sections 15081, 15082, and 15083 of the "Guidelines for Imp'te- mentation of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970." Review of the criteria set forth in these sections indicates that the project will not have a significant environmental impact. 5/3/76 • CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH • PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT FACT SHEET TO DETERMINE IF PROJECT HAS SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECT WATER MAIN REPLACEMENT CORONA DEL MAR PHASE I 1975-76 A. Conformance with City Goals This project'conforms to the City's General Plan Policies of maintaining appropriate levels of health and safety facilities to adequately serve the current and future needs of the community, including public utility services B. Land Use Existing land use in the project area is nearly fully -developed single- and multiple -family residential. This project will not require any additional right- of-way. The water main will be located within the existing street right-of-way. C. Human Resources The project will not affect any existing building or require the relocation of any people. D. Geologic Hazards Extensive grading will not be required. There are no known unique geologic hazards within the project area. E. Flooding, Erosion, or Siltation The only excavation for this project will be a trench for installation of the water main. The trench will be backfilled to the existing ground elevation. The surplus excavated material will be removed from the job site. Therefore, this item will not be of significance. F. Ground Water There are no know aquifers in the immediate vicinity of the project. G. Noise Level This proposed project will not affect the ambient noise levels of the adjacent areas. H. Air Resources This proposed project will not affect the air quality of the surrounding areas. I.

Water Resources The proposed project will not affect the water resources in the area. K. Secondary Consequences The proposed project will not cause an increase or decrease in the amount of water used within the City. In addition, construction of the proposed water main will not increase or decrease the potential for development since the area is nearly fully developed: The proposed main will increase the reliability of water service and will en- hance the fire -fighting capability in the area. L. Short -Term Impacts The only short-term impacts anticipated for this project are a slight amount of motorist inconvenience and noise during construction. These impacts are not considered to be significant. M. Summary The project does not appear to have any significant adverse effects on the environment. 5/3/76 CeitN• a T CL G 045% \1i v ca'e ?Al :24\ CI h y pLBLjc 1 / Y • ZOC4new SAP• WAVER. 04/ IjtheAr< ss'ewy Cacaos/4 .Oat.
