EARLIER ANALYSES Potentially Significant Impact D D D D D D Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated D D D D D D Less Than Significant No Impact Impact D D D D D 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 ru1 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. 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. c) Mitigation measures. For effects that are "Less Than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated," describe the mitigation measures, which were incorporated or refined from the earlier document and the extent to which they address site-specific conditions for the project. 13 Rev. 07/26/02 .( DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION Am QUALITY-Would the project: a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? No Impact. The project site is located in the San Diego Air Basin which is a federal and state non-attainment area for ozone (03), and a state non-attainment area for particulate matter less than or equal to 10 microns in diameter (PM10). The periodic violations of national Ambient Air Quality Standards (AAQS) in the San Diego Air Basin (SDAB), particularly for ozone in inland foothill areas, requires that a plan be developed outlining the pollution controls that will be undertaken to improve air quality. In San Diego County, this attainment planning process is embodied in the Regional Air Quality Strategies (RAQS) developed jointly by the Air Pollution Control District (APCD) and the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). A plan to meet the federal standard for ozone was developed in 1994 during the process of updating the 1991 state- mandated plan. This local plan was combined with plans from all other California non-attainment areas having serious ozone problems and used to create the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). The SIP was adopted by the Air Resources Board (ARB) after public hearings on November 9th through 10th in 1994, and was forwarded to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for approval. After considerable analysis and debate, particularly regarding airsheds with the worst smog problems, EPA approved the SIP in mid-1996. The proposed project relates to the SIP and/or RAQS through the land use and growth assumptions that are incorporated into the air quality planning document. These growth assumptions are based on each city's and the County's general plan. If a proposed project is consistent with its applicable General Plan, then the project presumably has been anticipated with the regional air quality planning process. Such consistency would ensure that the project would not have an adverse regional air quality impact. Section 15125(B) of the State of California Environment Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines contains specific reference to the need to evaluate any inconsistencies between the proposed project and the applicable air quality management plan. Transportation Control Measures (TCMs) are part of the RAQS. The RAQS and TCM plan set forth the steps needed to accomplish attainment of state and federal ambient air quality standards. The California Air Resources Board provides criteria for determining whether a project conforms with the RAQS which include the following: • Is a regional air quality plan being implemented in the project area? • Is the project consistent with the growth assumptions in the regional air quality plan? The project area is located in the San Diego Air Basin, and as such, is located in an area where a RAQS is being implemented. The project is consistent with the growth assumptions of the City's General Plan and the RAQS. Therefore, the project is consistent with the regional air quality plan and will in no way conflict or obstruct implementation of the regional plan. b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? Less Than Significant Impact. The closest air quality monitoring station to the project site is in the City of Oceanside. Data available for this monitoring site through April, 2002 indicate that the most recent air quality violations recorded were for the state one hour standard for ozone (one day in both 2000 and 2001) and one day in 2001 for the federal 8-hour average for ozone and one day for the 24-hour state standard for suspended particulates in 1996. No violations of any other air quality standards have been recorded recently. Ifthere is grading associated with the project, the project would involve minimal short-term emissions associated with grading and construction. Such emissions would be minimized through standard construction measures such as the use of properly tuned equipment and watering the site for dust control. Long-term emissions associated with travel to and from the project will be minimal. Although air pollutant emissions would be associated with the project, they would neither result in the violation of any air quality standard ( comprising only an incremental contribution to overall air basin quality readings), nor contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation. Any impact is assessed as less than significant. c) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard? 14 Rev. 07/26/02 ! l I l I I l ., I I l l l I I i • l ' I ! I I l l i j ! i I I i I ; i I I I I I I j t t ! I I ( Less Than Significant Impact. The Air Basin is currently in a non-attainment zone for ozone and suspended fine particulates. The proposed project would represent a contribution to a cumulatively considerable potential net increase in emissions throughout the air basin. As described above, however, emissions associated with the proposed project would be minimal. Given the limited emissions potentially associated with the proposed project, air quality would be essentially the same whether or not the proposed project is implemented. According to the CEQA Guidelines Section 15130 (a)(4), the proposed project's contribution to the cumulative impact is considered de minimus. Any impact is assessed as less than significant.

This system utilizes bands of signal in the 850 and 1900 MHz ranges to provide for voice, text messaging, video and data transmission services. Currently, Cingular is undergoing a major system-wide upgrade to its existing network throughout the United States. More specifically, Cingular is upgrading its network throughout the San Diego County area to improve network coverage, reliability and capacity. These upgrades require the strategic location of wireless cell sites throughout the San Diego County area, including the Southern portion of the City of Carlsbad. Cingular' s Radio Frequency ("RF") Engineers and Real Estate Site Acquisition Specialists have identified sites that meet both the wireless network technical requirements and the business terms objectives, therefore, Cingular seeks to obtain planning and zoning approval for the above referenced site. SITE SELECTION Cingular Wireless engineering, planning and site acquisition staffs have been working to improve, enhance, and expand the Digital network throughout the County of San Diego as well as to other underserved regions in Southern California. The system employs a network of transmit/receive stations ( cell sites) that carry and "hand off" signals as the user moves from one area to another. As the user moves from one cell site area to the next, signals to and from the first cell site fade while those to and from the next cell site strengthen. Sophisticated computer systems sense these signal variations and automatically hand the signal off to an available channel as the user moves between cell areas. The network of cell sites throughout the region is "locational dependent", meaning that there is a necessary and logical interrelationship between each cell site. Eliminating or relocating a single cell site can lead to gaps in the system or areas where a continuous signal cannot be maintained, and may necessitate significant design changes or modifications to the network. In addition, each cell site can only handle a finite number of calls simultaneously. When a cell site becomes so "busy" that attempted calls are rejected due to "capacity", then an additional cell needs to be added to handle these additional calls. This site is intended to augment the existing coverage by both extending the current coverage and adding additional call capacity to the nearby high traffic areas. Specifically, the proposed site will extend coverage to the residential areas east of the. site; and it will both enhance capacity and extend coverage to nearby portlons of El Camino Real (and the associated commercial and residential areas near El Camino Real) to th~ north, south, and west of the site. Other nearby options very briefly considered and rejected were: • Residential buildings to north of site: rejected because Ordinance discourages sites in residential; • Residenlial buildings to east rejected because area is too low and developed in residential: • SDG&E tower to south of site: rejected because Ordinance discourages SDG&E towers in residential zoning; • Commercial buildings to west: rejected because too low. A map of the current and proposed Cingular sites in Carlsbad is attached. PROPOSED DESIGN 1 ~ r. ! t,.!. . The property currently contains 1pree wireless telecom sites. The equipment shelters for all three are on the edge of the "courtyard" on the eastern portion of the site. The existing antennas facing south and east are all mounted on the various building faces at the top of the roofline. The existing north facing antennas are all placed inside faux "dormers'' on the north facing portion of roof. The north facing antennas are not visible to the public. The Cingular proposal would place the east and south facing antennas on the building faces in the same manner and close to the existing antennas. However, no there is not sufficient room to build another "dormer" for north facing antennas. Thus the proposal would extend upward an existing "portico" at the northwest corner of the building, The north facing antennas would be placed inside this extension and would not be visible to the public. The existing architecture and "look" of the building would be maintained. The equipment cabinets would be place inside the building in former office space and would not be visible to the public. AJI materials and colors will match existing. · Photo-simulations are attached. FCC GUIDELINES FOR EMF EXPOSURE The applicant will promptly provide verification of compliance with the FCC Guid~lines for EMF exposure pending agreement on final antenna location.
