City ofCenltrvilk Cel/ten'ille [)Q\rmtown Redrmrlopmenl ProJed D<<ember 19. 2IJ/J6 PllgB J Task 4: Air QuaUly aDd Noise Impact Analyses SBP Associates will complete the air quality and noise impact analyses. One meeting is anticipated to be needed. The noise analysis will include: monitoring at up to three locations in order to assess existing project-area noise levels: modeling using the Minnoise computer model to predict post-project noise levels; and preparation of a report for attachmeot to tbe EA W. The report will include a summary of results comparing.projected noise analysis results to appropriate standard&, a description of the analysis process and methodology, noise modeling and monitoring results. and the traffIC infonnation used in the analysis. The air quality analysis will consist of dispersion modeling, data analysis and report preparation. Background carbon monoxide monitoring is not included as it is unlikely to be required for this study. SBP will use the CAL3QHC computer model to predict the post-development air quality impll(;t of the project-area traffic 00 nearby receptors. For attachment to the EA W. a report will be prepared that includes a summary of results comparing projected carbon monoxide le~els to appropriate standards, a description of the analysis process and methodology. carbon monoxide modeling results, and the traffic infonnaoon used in the analysis. Task 5: Analyze Information In EA W Context ad Forma4 Prepare Draft EA W Once environmental issues have been identified and the relevant infonnation has been collected, analysis of predicted environmental impacts can be completed. This task is designed to predict the proposed project's environmental impacts within tbe EQB intent and guidance. Information from the supporting studies conducted under Tasks 2-4 (traffic, wetlands, air quality and noise impacts) wiJI be incolpoa-.df;d into the EA W. During this task, the specifW questions in the EA W form are responded to, using de~elopment plans and other relevant infonnation as the factual basis for analysis and response. All responses will be of a length and type appropriate to the relevance of the question, and may include for reference figures, tables, maps, and/or related correspondence. The completion of this task will include a draft copy of the EA W submitted to the City of Centervil1e as the ROU for review of its content and accuracy. Task 6: RevIse EA W with RGU Review Commeats, Prepare aDd Distribute EA W Copies, Prepare ad Submit EA W Notice to EQB and Local Newspaper This task ~passes preparing copies of the EA W (both paper and electronic. if requested) for submittal to the RGU for adoption/approval for publication. This task: also includes incorporating comments and respondiug to questions the RGU may have prior to adopting and releasing the EA W for public comment. It is assumed that approximately 10 copies of the EAW will be needed for Cily approval. The EA W will be prepared and distributed to the agencies on the EQB EA W Distribution List. The number of copies needed for distribution varies depending on the nature and location of the project, as well as the nmnber of other parties who have expressed interest in the project. In most cases, approximately 35-40 copies are needed. A notice ofEA W availability will be submitted to the Environmental Quality Board (EQB) for publication in the EQB Monitor. A notice will also be submitted to a local newspaper as required by EQB rules. 39 ____ ____~_____ ______-------"0
