I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the
environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the
environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation
measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project. A NEGATIVE
DECLARATION will be prepared.
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
I find that the proposed project MAY have significant effect(s) on the environment, but at
least one potentially significant effect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier
document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation
measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. An Negative
Declaration is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed.
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the
environment, there WILL NOT be a significant effect in this case because all potentially
significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in earlier EIR pursuant to applicable
standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR, including
revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project. Therefore,
a Notice of Prior Compliance has been prepared.

Rev.716198
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPATTS
STATE CEQA GUIDELINES, Chapter 3, Article 5, Section 15063 requires that the City
conduct an Environmental Impact Assessment to determine if a project may have a significant
effect on the environment. The Environmental Impact Assessment appears in the following
pages in the form of a checklist. This checklist identifies any physical, biological and human
factors that might be impacted by the proposed project and provides the City with information to
use as the basis for deciding whether to prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), Negative
Declaration, or to rely on a previously approved EIR or Negative Declaration.
l A brief explanation is required for all answers except “No Impact” answers that are
adequately supported by an information source cited in the parentheses following each
question. A “No Impact” answer is adequately supported if the referenced information
sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the one involved. A
“No Impact” answer should be explained when there is no source document to refer to, or
it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards.
l “Less Than Significant Impact” applies where there is supporting evidence that the
potential impact is not adversely significant, and the impact does not exceed adopted
general standards and policies.
l “Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated” applies where the incorporation
of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from “Potentially Significant Impact” to a
“Less Than Significant Impact.” The developer must agree to the mitigation, and the
City must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the
effect to a less than significant level.
l “Potentially Significant Impact” is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an
effect is significant.
l Based on an “EIA-Part II”, if a proposed project could have a potentially significant
effect on the environment, but &l potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed
adequately in an earlier EIR or Mitigated Negative Declaration pursuant to applicable
standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or Mitigated
Negative Declaration, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon
the proposed project, and none of the circumstances requiring a supplement to or
supplemental EIR are present and all the mitigation measures required by the prior
environmental document have been incorporated into this project, then no additional
environmental document is required (Prior Compliance).
l When “Potentially Significant Impact” is checked the project is not necessarily required
to prepare an EIR if the significant effect has been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR
pursuant to applicable standards and the effect will be mitigated, or a “Statement of
Overriding Considerations” has been made pursuant to that earlier EIR.
l A Negative Declaration may be prepared if the City perceives no substantial evidence that
the project or any of its aspects may cause a significant effect on the environment.
3 Rev.716198
l If there are one or more potentially significant effects, the City may avoid preparing an
EIR if there are mitigation measures to clearly reduce impacts to less than significant, and
those mitigation measures are agreed to by the developer prior to public review. In this
case, the appropriate “Potentially Significant Impact Unless Mitigation Incorporated”
may be checked and a Mitigated Negative Declaration may be prepared.
l An EIR must be prepared if “Potentially Significant Impact” is checked, and including
but not limited to the following circumstances: (1) the potentially significant effect has
not been discussed or mitigated in an earlier EIR pursuant to applicable standards, and the
developer does not agree to mitigation measures that reduce the impact to less than
significant; (2) a “Statement of Overriding Considerations” for the significant impact has
not been made pursuant to an earlier EIR; (3) proposed mitigation measures do not reduce
the impact to less than significant, or; (4) through the EIA-Part II analysis it is not
possible to determine the level of significance for a potentially adverse effect, or
determine the effectiveness of a mitigation measure in reducing a potentially significant
effect to below a level of significance.
A discussion of potential impacts and the proposed mitigation measures appears at the end of the
form under DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION. Particular attention
should be given to discussing mitigation for impacts which would otherwise be determined
significant.

Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA
process, one or more effects have been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative
declaration. Section 15063(c)(3)(D). In this case a discussion should identify the following on
attached sheets:
a> Earlier analyses used. Identify earlier analyses and state where they are available for
review. Final Environmental Impact Report for Pacific Rim Country Club and Resort,
(EIR 83-02(A)), dated August 1986. MEIR for the I994 General Plan Update, both
on file in the Planning Department at 2075 Las Palmas, Drive, Carlsbad CA 92009.
b) Impacts adequately addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were
within the scope of and adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to
applicable legal standards, and state whether such effects were addressed by mitigation
measures based on the earlier analysis. All the effects from the above checklist were

DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONGENTAL EVALUATION
A. Proiect Descrirdion
The proposed project includes a master plan amendment, local coastal program amendment. tentative
tract map and coastal development permit for Planning Area 19 of the Aviara Master Plan (MP- 177).
The tentative tract map includes 90 multi-family units at a density of 10.9 du/ac. The development is
proposed as 13 six-plexes and 4 triplexes with accompanying recreational amenities to be constructed on
a previously-graded site of 8.2 acres in size. Currently, the site is vacant and devoid of vegetation. The
site is surrounded to the north and west by a City park site; to the east by a 184 unit condominium project
and to the south by a proposed 298 unit apartment project. The proposed density is consistent with the
number of units (109) allowed under the latest amendment to the Aviara Master Plan. The proposed
discretionary actions also include a master plan amendment and accompanying Local Coastal Plan
Amendment which would amend the Aviara Master Plan to permit minor modifications to development
standards (i.e., setbacks from roadways and width of driveways. For this environmental analysis. staff
conducted several field trips to the subject property and reviewed the Pacific Rim Country Club and
Resort Master Plan Environmental Impact Report EIR 82-03(A) which covers this property. The
proposed project is consistent with this document as follows:
1. The site has already been reviewed under Master Plan EIR 83-02(A);
2. The project implements all recommended mitigation measures of EIR 83-02(A);
3. The project site design and architectural style will complement existing or future land uses.
B. Environmental Impact Discussion
Air Quality
The implementation of subsequent projects that are consistent with and included in the updated 1994
General Plan will result in increased gas and electric power consumption and vehicle miles traveled.
These subsequently result in increases in the emission of carbon monoxide, reactive organic gases,
oxides of nitrogen and sulfur. and suspended particulates. These aerosols are the major contributors to
air pollution in the City as well as in the San Diego Air Basin. Since the San Diego Air Basin is a “non-
attainment basin”, any additional air emissions are considered cumulatively significant: therefore,
continued development to buildout as proposed in the updated General Plan will have cumulative
significant impacts on the air quality of the region.
To lessen or minimize the impact on air quality associated with General Plan buildout, a variety of
mitigation measures are recommended in the Final Master EIR. These include: I) provisions for
roadway and intersection improvements prior to or concurrent with development; 2) measures to reduce
vehicle trips through the implementation of Congestion and Transportation Demand Management; 3)
provisions to encourage alternative modes of transportation including mass transit services; 4) conditions
to promote energy efficient building and site design; and 5) participation in regional growth management
strategies when adopted. The applicable and appropriate General Plan air quality mitigation measures
have either been incorporated into the design of the prqject or are included as conditions of project
approval.
Operation-related emissions are considered cumulatively significant because the project is located within
a “non-attainment basin”, therefore, the “Initial Study” checklist is marked “Potentially Significant
Impact”. This project is consistent with the General Plan, therefore, the preparation of an EIR is not
required because the certification of Final Master EIR 93-01, by City Council Resolution No. 94-246,
included a “Statement Of Overriding Considerations” for air quality impacts. This “Statement Of
Overriding Considerations” applies to all subsequent projects covered by the General Plan’s Final Master
EIR, including this project, therefore, no further environmental review of air quality impacts is required.
This document is available at the Planning Department.
11 Rev.716198
Transportation/Circulation
The implementation of subsequent projects that are consistent with and included in the updated 1994
General Plan will result in increased traffic volumes. Roadway segments will be adequate to
accommodate buildout traffic; however, 12 full and 2 partial intersections will be severely impacted by
regional through-traffic over which the City has no jurisdictional control. These generally include all
freeway interchange areas and major intersections along Carlsbad Boulevard. Even with the
implementation of roadway improvements, a number of intersections are projected to fail the City’s
adopted Growth Management performance standards at buildout.
To lessen or minimize the impact on circulation associated with General Plan buildout, numerous
mitigation measures have been recommended in the Final Master EIR. These include measures to ensure
the provision of circulation facilities concurrent with need; 2) provisions to develop alternative modes of
transportation such as trails, bicycle routes, additional sidewalks, pedestrian linkages, and commuter rail
systems; and 3) participation in regional circulation strategies when adopted. The diversion of regional
through-traffic from a failing Interstate or State Highway onto City streets creates impacts that are not
within the jurisdiction of the City to control. The applicable and appropriate General Plan circulation
mitigation measures have either been incorporated into the design of the project or are included as
conditions of project approval.
Regional related circulation impacts are considered cumulatively significant because of the failure of
intersections at buildout of the General Plan due to regional through-traffic, therefore, the “Initial Study”
checklist is marked “Potentially Significant Impact”. This project is consistent with the General Plan,
therefore, the preparation of an EIR is not required because the recent certification of Final Master EIR
93-01, by City Council Resolution No. 94-246, included a “Statement Of Overriding Considerations” for
circulation impacts. This “Statement Of Overriding Considerations” applies to all subsequent projects
covered by the General Plan’s Master EIR, including this project, therefore, no further environmental
review of circulation impacts is required.
Biology
A small .5 acre sliver of disturbed coastal sage habitat is located along the northern boundary of the site
with slightly more vegetation located on the City park site. This area was included as part of the mass
grading approved for Aviara Phase III in 1995. At that time it was determined that this and other Aviara
sites created 8.68 acres of impact to coastal sage scrub. A 4(d) permit was issued and 8.68 acres of the
best coastal maritime scrub were placed in placed in permanent open space for preservation. Mitigation
was deemed acceptable by the resource agencies. Although grading of this portion of the subject site is
occurring later than the rest of the mass grading operation, the impacts to the coastal sage at this location
are considered to be mitigated.
Noise
Homes in the proposed project will be subject to noise from Poinsettia Lane with a projected ADT of
17,600. First floor exterior living areas located along Poinsettia Lane would be exposed to a maximum
unmitigated traffic noise level of about 68.2 CNEL. In order to meet the City required CNEL exterior
noise standard of 60 CNEL, a noise barrier will be required to be constructed at the top of slope along
Poinsettia Lane. The noise attenuation wall will vary in height from 6.0’ to 6.6’ In addition, prior to the
issuance of building permits, the applicant will be required to provide proof that interior noise levels will
be reduced to 45 CNEL and that mechanical ventilation will be provided for homes located along
Poinsettia Lane. The proposed development is also located within three miles of McClellan-Palomar
Airport. Residents of this area may frequently see, hear, and interference of certain activities by aircraft
operating to and or from the Airport. As a note of disclosure to future property owners, the developer
12 Rev.716198
will be required to file a NoticyConcerning Aircraft Environmental Impacts, Noise Forms #2 and #3, of
file in the Planning Department. All above conditions have been included as mitigation measures in this
Mitigated Negative Declaration.
