Land Trust Fund - Contributions of land,
scenic and conservation easements and struc-
tures of cultural or historic significance within
the park planning area. Cash or other donations
may be designated to pay for costs of acquiring and holding park and
recreation lands.
Additionally, you may be Interested in the San Dieguito River
Valley Land Conservancy, a local 'private 501(c)(3) organization" which
was formed for the purpose of fundraising and preserving land in the
river valley.
We urge you to consult your personal tax advisor to make sure
that your gift meets your personal and tax objectives.
Your individual contribution today to assist us in our efforts to
preserve and protect the San Dieguito River Valley's natural and cultural
resources will ensure a legacy for everyone to enjoy tomorrow. Please
become a partner with us in this
challenging and exciting
venture now!
WHAT IS HAPPENING NOW IN THE PARK?
Landis being preserved through direct acquisition as well as through
gifts, bequests, easements and dedications gained through the development
process. Mitigation offers another opportunity for land preservation and
habitat restoration. The JPA will consider "partners" - who have the need
to mitigate projects for habitat or wetland impacts. The JPA has purchased
89 acres of wetland habitat just west of I-5 in the San Dieguito Lagoon. If
successful, state and local bond measures will provide much needed funds
for additional land acquisition.
Master plans are being developed in several of the park landscapes.
The Lake Hqdges/East Lake Hodges Landscape is the first to have a park
master plan. The master plan for the San Dieguito Lagoon and Santa Fe
Valley Landscapes will follow. San Pasqual Valley is also a top priority for
planning. When a park master plan is developed, planning workshops are
held to receive ideas and comments from the public.
WHAT RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES ARE AVAILABLE NOW?
AA Monthly nature hikes are held in the San Dieguito River Park.
Wildlife, native plant or Native American specialists tell you about these -
resources as you enjoy your hike in a different area of the valley each frionth.
In Lake Hodges, fishing and boardsailing are permitted during the
season (mid-February to November). Picnicking and hiking in the Lake
Hodges area are great ways to spend the day anytime. In East San Pasqual
Valley a number of trails opened in 1991 for hiking and horseback riding.

THE SAN DIEGUITO RIVER VALLEY
began to flow millenia ago - starting with a percolating
spring near modern . day Julian, collecting water from coastal
mountain tributaries until at last the meandering stream became
a river. i A river that carved its way through the geological
eras fifty-five miles to reach the Pacific Ocean near what is now
Del Mar. We call it the San Dieguito River. 7 ForThewildlife
living there, the San Dieguito River Valley has been a sanctuary;
a corridor that fosters natural diversity in living creatures; a fragile
but fertile transition between the land and the sea. X For
humans it has been a source of life; a place of dramatic
natural beauty; a center of belief; a quiet
retreat from urban life.
GREEN WAY AND OPEN SPACE PARK SYSTEM
Modern day Californians have taken a special interest in the San
Dieguito River and its many environments. Through combined support
of local, state and federal governments, private landowners, charitable
organizations and private citizens, an effort is underway to create a 60,000
acre greenway and open space park system along the river's path.
To create the San Dieguito River Park, the local governments with
land in the river valley created a Joint Powers Authority to:
Cultural Resources
• Establish Appropriate Recreational Areas
• Create a Scenic Trail System - it
• Preserve Open Space
• Protect, Enhance and Interpret Natural and
The Joint Powers Authority is an independent government agency with the
power to acquire land, plan, improve, operate and maintain the San
Dieguito River Park.
The effort to create the San Dieguito River Park is one of the most
ambitious and innovative land use projects on the West Coast. It has
received state and national attention as a model for the ntotection of
ACT NOW TO HELP
Preservation and restoration of the San Dieguito River Valley will require the
help of landowners, businesses, scientists, environmentalists, legislators and
citizens - young and old.

Christer, based on our conversation with Bill Hofman after he talked with Michael
Holzmiller, it is our understanding the City and Fieldstone/La Costa Associates will
devise a mechanism that will designate the graded open space area for recreation land use
purposes until a General Plan Amendment is approved to modify the land use in that
area. Therefore, we are continuing to show grading within the designated open space
area.
We would appreciate your review of this submittal at the earliest time possible, so that
grading permits and the Hillside Permit can be approved by Council concurrently with
certification of the EIR on March 24, 1992.
Please call Mark Rowson or me if you need additional information.
Very truly yours,

DEPT._PLN RANCHO SANTA 'PB ROAD CITY MGR \'
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
ADOPT Resolution No. APPROVING an agreement with
Cotton/Beland/Associates, Inc., for the preparation of an
Environmental Impact Report for the Rancho Santa Fe Realignment
Project, and APPROVING an agreement with the Fieldstone Company
for the funding of the Report.
ITEM EXPLANATION
Preliminary design plans for the easterly realignment of Rancho
Santa Fe Road between La Costa Avenue and Melrose Drive have now
been prepared and submitted to the City by the Fieldstone Company.
Also, an assessment district is being formed to fund the
construction of the realigned road.
An initial environmental assessment identified the need to prepare
a complete Environmental Impact Report for the proposed
realignment project. Staff contacted a number of environmental
consulting firms to see if they had an interest and the available
time to prepare the report. Four firms responded. Statements of
qualifications were requested from each of these four firms.
Staff reviewed the proposals with respect to a number of factors
including similar work, personnel and availability. Based on this
review, staff is recommending that the firm of Cotton/Beland/
Associates, Inc., be selected to prepare the Environmental Impact
Report for the realignment of Rancho Santa Fe Road.
C Ui
0.
The realignment of Rancho Santa Fe Road will result in the need
to rearrange land uses in this portion of the City, thereby
necessitating a future, subsequent amendment to the La Costa
Master Plan. An amendment to the Master Plan is not being
requested or approved at this time. However, in order to prepare
the Environmental Impact Report, the Report will address the
impacts of a conceptual rearrangement of land uses as proposed by
the Fieldstone Company. Also, the Fieldstone Company is proposing
to do the overall grading for the area surrounding the realignment
of Rancho Santa Fe Road at the same time the grading for the road
is done. The Environmental Impact Report will address this
additional grading but, again, City approval is not being given
for the additional grading at this time.

. .
Subtasks 2,1 Draft Project Description.
CBA will prepare a draft project description in the format
to be included in the Draft EIR. The project description
will include maps, tables and diagrams describing the
project and principal project alternatives. The project
description will describe existing and anticipated land
uses in the project area in acres and intensity of
development measures (dwelling units, square footage). A
quantitative project description, even though it may be a
"best estimate," is crucial in identifying potential
impacts.
2.2 Cumulative Project List.
CBA, in consultation with City staff, will prepare a
cumulative projects list to identify related projects and
projects which must be considered for cumulative effects.
Surrounding cities and San Diego County will be consulted,
and the SANDAG growth forecast policy will be considered in
identifying cumulative effects.
2.3 Prepare Administrative Draft EIR
CBA will prepare an administrative draft EIR in accordance
with CEQA and City EIR guidelines. The administrative
draft will be provided for staff review prior to
publication of the official draft EIR. The EIR will be
formatted to include the following sections:
Executive Summary. The Executive Summary will
identify each significant effect of the project,
with proposed mitigation measures which would
reduce that effect; areas of controversy
including issues raised by agencies and the
public; and issues to be resolved including the
choice among alternatives and whether or how to
mitigate significant effects.
Introduction. The Introduction will summarize the legal
role of the EIR In the development process.
Section 1. Description of the Proposed Project, The
project description will include a description of the
project and key project alternatives. The project
description will include maps or diagrams Illustrating the
proposed project and may include a table summarizing the
differences among the project alternatives.
The project description will include a list of all actions

. I
Section 2, Description of Environmental Setting. This
section will briefly describe the environmental setting of
the proposed project. A more detailed description of the
environmental setting will be included in the following
section discussing project impacts and mitigation measures.
Section 3. Environmental Impact. This section will
discuss the environmental setting, significant
environmental effects, mitigation measures and appropriate
City findings for each of the project impacts outlined
below, organized In accordance with the environmental
impact checklist In the CEQA guidelines. CBA recommends
this organization For the EIR in order to clearly
demonstrate compliance with CEQA in reviewing a complete
list of project impacts.
The E1R will emphasize both site specific and regional,
cumulative and growth-inducing impacts of the project.
Mitigation measures will be identified for these impacts
and for anticipated project-specific impacts.
.1 Earth. Grading impacts including disruptions,
displacements, compaction and overcovering of the
soil in the project area will be reviewed. Unique
geological conditions that may affect development
in the project area will be Identified based on the
supplemental soil and geologic investigation prepared
for the project by GEOCON (January 1990). The GEOCON
study includes' suggested mitigation measures to reduce
or avoid impacts and includes a Woodward-Clyde
Consultants assessment of Impacts to the Stanley
Mahr Reservoir which will be included in the section
discussion.
3.2. Air. Existing and historic air quality in the
Carlsbad area will be discussed, and the potential for
this project (individually and cumulatively with other
projects) to adversely affect air quality will be
estimated using recognized air quality Impact assessment
techniques. CBA's Callrie 3 air pollution assessment
model will be used to identify pollutant emissions from
natural gas combustion, electric power generation and
motor vehicle trips. Emissions wil.l be related to
estimated emissions from the source/receptor area in
which the project Is located. Tables and/or graphs will
be included to illustrate historic air quality, emission
factors, emission estimates, and the relation of
emissions to source/receptor area emissions.
4
S .
The California (Caline) Line Source Model will be
utilized to estimate air pollutant concentrations on
arterials. Concentrations will be related to existing
levels and ambient air quality standards to indicate
potential increases in number of days exceeding
standards.
Mitigation measures in accordance with ARB and San Diego
County ,Air Pollution Control District guidelines will be
identified.
3.3 Water. The potential for drainage and water quality
impacts in the project area will be assessed by
Luke-Dudek, Civil Engineers. The potential for the
project to Increase ground coverage by impervious
surfaces will be estimated and the effect on the rate and
amount of runoff from the project area discussed.
Storm drain improvements included in the project and
standard project-level mitigation measures (such as
adequate site drainage and onsite detention) will be
identified as mitigation measures.
3.4 Plant and Animal Life. The environmental resources
considered under this category will be identified through
the preparation of a study by a City-selected biologist
under separate contract administered by the City. The
study is assumed to provide all information necessary for
preparation of this section of the EIR, including wetland
delineation, detailed California gnatcatcher assessment,
full biological survey report, recommended mitigation
measures, and draft biological text for the EIR.
3.5 Noise. Construction noise impacts including those
associated with portable rock-crushing equipment will be
briefly discussed and construction noise mitigation
measures identified.
The potential noise impact resulting from traffic
increases on Rancho Santa Fe Road will be described using
information contained in the City's Noise Element (as
amended). Mitigation measures to reduce noise impacts
will be identified and their effectiveness discussed.
Mitigation measures to be considered will include
structural siting., barrier walls and others as
appropriate.
3.6 Light and Glare. Light and glare impacts will be
briefly discussed and mitigation measures Identified
as they relate to street lighting associated with roadway
improvements.
5
. I
3.7 Land Use. Quantitative estimates of intensity
changes resulting from any planned land use location
adjustments associated with the road realignment wl1.1 be
described. Intensity of development (dwelling units and
square footage or nonresidential uses) will be estimated
based on General Plan land use and Local Facilities
Management Plan assumptions for intensity/density.
Land uses will be tabulated in General Plan land use
categories sufficiently specific to make meaningful
estimates of impacts on traffic and public facilities.
Anticipated development will be compared to the current
General Plan and Zoning.
38. Traffic Circulation. Traffic considerations
associated with the project will be reviewed by Weston
Pringle & Associates to identify potentially significant
traffic impacts.
Existing traffic conditions in the area will be
documented, Including the average daily traffic volume on
arterial streets. The data used in this analysis will be
obtained from the General Plan Traffic Circulation and
Facility Management Plans, and other available traffic
studies.
The analysis of future traffic conditions will include
average daily traffic volumes on arterial streets and
will also rely on the General Plan Traffic Circulation
and Facility Management Mans. Traffic growth from the
existing condition will be estimated, based on the future
land use scenario developed for the General Plan plus
growth in background traffic. Traffic operational and
safety concerns including truck routing adjustments will
be considered.
Potential mitigation measures will be identified for
achieving acceptable short- and long-term future
conditions: Should design revisions to road
configuration occur (for example, modification to the
Melrose/Rancho Santa Fe Road intersection) and additional
analysis be required, adjustment of the scope of work
and cost may be necessary.
3.9. Public Services. The potential for the project,
cumulatively with similar projects in the vicinity, to
add fire, police and other service requirements will be
identified through discussions with the appropriate
agencies. Specific mitigation measures will be
Identified based on these discussions.
G
. .
3,10. Utilities. Utility impacts, particularly
those on water, sewer, storm drains, power, natural
gas and solid waste disposal systems will be
identified based on discussions with service
providers. System demand will be estimated based on
recognized engineering design factors, and demands
related to available system capacity, If known, to
Identify deficiencies. Specific mitigation measures
for each system will be identified based on
discussions with service providing agencies.
Construction components (drainage structures, utility
underyroundlng, etc.) included in the proposed
project will be included as mitigation measures.
3.11. Aesthetics/Landform Alteration. Potential
aesthetic Impacts will be identified and discussed in
terms of alterations to the natural setting and
landform. Specific attention will be devoted to
vegetation removal and grading Impacts as they relate
to the City's Hillside Review Ordinance.
Mitigation measures to deal with potential impacts
will be identified and methods of implementing
mitigation measures recommended.
3.12. Archaeological/Iilstorical. An archaeological
field survey of the 684 acre project area and record
searches will be conducted by Roth & Associates to
identify site locations and possible resources. This
Initial survey will confirm the location of some or
all of the 28 sites previously identified by FRC as
being within a one-mile radius of the planned road
realignment. Evaluation of the importance of the
sites may result in recommendations for subsurface
testing and significance determinations. Costs
associated with such testing cannot presently be
estimated and are not included In this proposal.
This portion of the scope of work does not presently
include an assessment of paleontological resources.
This assessment can be included at additional cost if
desired by the city.
Section 4. Alternatives.
The Impacts of key project alternatives will be addressed
In discussion and summary table. Alternatives addressed
will include the no project alternative, road widening In
the existing alignment, and road realignment without
residential area grading. Alternatives will be reviewed
with the City, and minimum of three alternatives will he
discussed In some detail in the EIR. Additional
alternatives will increase EIR costs.

S .
Section 5 Areas of flo Significant Impact.
This section will include identification of those Impacts
not found to be significant and not further discussed in
the EIR.
Section 6. Short and Long Term Environmental Impact.
The potential for the project to achieve short-term
objectives at the expense of long-term goals will be
reviewed.
Section 7. Significant Irreversible Environmental Changes.
This section will identify significant irreversible
environmental changes which may result from the proposed
project.
Section 8. Growth-Inducing Impacts.
The potential for the project to induce growth or remove
barriers to growth will be identified.
Section 9. Cumulative Effects.
The cumulative Impact of this project with other known
projects and development in accordance with the General
Plan will be identified. Specific areas to be emphasized
in discussing cumulative Impacts Include traffic, air
quality, noise and public facilities and services impacts.

Subtasks 2,1 Draft Project Description.
CBA will prepare a draft project description in the format
to be included in the Draft EIR. The project description
will include maps, tables and diagrams describing the
project and principal project alternatives. The project
description will describe existing and anticipated land
uses in the project area in acres and intensity of
development measures (dwelling units, square footage). A
quantitative project description, even though it may be a
"best estimate," is crucial in identifying potential
impacts.
2.2 Cumulative Project List.
CBA, in consultation with City staff, will prepare a
cumulative projects list to identify related projects and
projects which must be considered for cumulative effects.
Surrounding cities and San Diego County will be consulted,
and the SANDAG growth forecast policy will be considered in
identifying cumulative effects,
2,3 Prepare Administrative Draft EIR
CBA will prepare an administrative draft EIR in accordance
with CEQA and City EIR guidelines. The administrative
draft will be provided for staff review prior to
publication of the official draft EIR. The EIR will be
formatted to Include the following sections:
Executive Summary. The Executive Summary will
identify each significant effect of the project,
with proposed mitigation measures which would
reduce that effect; areas of controversy
including Issues raised by agencies and the
public; and issues to be resolved including the
choice among alternatives and whether or how to
mitigate significant effects.
Introduction. The Introduction will summarize the legal
role of the EIR in the development process.
Section 1. Description of the Proposed Project. The
project description will include a description of the
project and key project alternatives. The project
description will include maps or diagrams illustrating the
proposed project and may include a table summarizing the
differences among the project alternatives.
The project description will include a list of all actions
for which environmental clearance is being sought.

. .
Section 2. Description of Environmental Setting. This
section will briefly describe the environmental setting of
the proposed project. A more detailed description of the
environmental setting vii il be included in the following
section discussing project impacts and mitigation measures.
Section 3. Environmental Impact. This section will
discuss the environmental setting, significant
environmental effects, mitigation measures and appropriate
City findings for each of the project impacts outlined
below, organized in accordance with the environmental
impact checklist in the CEQA guidelines. CBA recommends
this organization For the EIR in order to clearly
demonstrate compliance with CEQA in reviewing a complete
list of project impacts.
The EIR will emphasize both site specific and regional,
cumulative and growth-inducing impacts of the project.
Mitigation measures will be identified for these impacts
and for anticipated project-specific impacts.
3.1 Earth. Grading impacts Including disruptions,
displacements, compaction and overcovering of the
soil in the project area will be reviewed. Unique
geological conditions that may affect development
in the project area will be identified based on the
supplemental soil and geologic investigation prepared
for the project by GEOCON (January 1990). The GEOCON
study includes suggested mitigation measures to reduce
or avoid impacts and includes a Woodward-Clyde
Consultants assessment of impacts to the Stanley
Mahr Reservoir which will be included in the section
discussion,
3.2. Mr. Existing and historic air quality in the
Carlsbad area will be discussed, and the potential for
this project (individually and cumulatively with other
projects) to adversely affect air quality will be
estimated using recognized air quality Impact assessment
techniques. CBA's Calirie 3 air pollution assessment
model will be used to identify pollutant emissions from
natural gas combustion, electric power generation and
motor vehicle trips. Emissions will be related to
estimated emissions from the source/receptor area in
which the project is located. Tables and/or graphs will
be included to illustrate historic air quality, emission
factors, emission estimates, and the relation of
emissions to source/receptor area emissions.
. .
The California (Calirie) Line Source Mode' will be
utilized to estimate air pollutant concentrations on
arterials, Concentrations will be related to existing
levels and ambient air qual ity standards to indicate
potential increases in number of days exceeding
standards.
Mitigation measures in accordance with ARB and San Diego
County Air Pollution Control District guidelines will be
identified.
3,3 Water. The potential for drainage and water quality
impacts in the project area will be assessed by
Luke-Dudek, Civil Engineers. The potential for the
project to increase ground coverage by impervious
surfaces will be estimated and the effect on the rate and
amount of runoff from the project area discussed.
Storm drain improvements included in the project and
standard project-level mitigation measures (such as
adequate site drainage and onsite detention) will be
identified as mitigation measures.
3.4 Plant and Animal Life. The environmental resources
considered under this category will be identified through
the preparation of a study by a City-selected biologist
under separate contract administered by the City. The
study is assumed to provide all information necessary for
preparation of this section of the EIR, including wetland
delineation, detailed California gnatcatcher assessment,
full biological survey report, recommended mitigation
measures, and draft biological text for the EIR.
3.5 Noise, Construction noise impacts including those
associated with portable rock-crushing equipment will be
briefly discussed and construction noise mitigation
measures identified.
The potential noise impact resulting from traffic
increases on Rancho Santa Fe Road will be described using
information contained in the City's Noise Element (as
amended). Mitigation measures to reduce noise impacts
will be Identified and their effectiveness discussed.
Mitigation measures to be considered will include
structural siting, barrier walls and others as
appropriate.
3.6 Light and Glare. Light and glare impacts will be
briefly discussed and mitigation measures Identified
as they relate to street lighting associated with roadway
improvements.
5
. S
3.7 Land Use. Quantitative estimates of intensity
changes resul ti[ from any planned land use location
adjustments associated with the road realignment will be
described, Intensity of development (dwelling units and
square footage or nonresidential uses) will be estimated
based on General Plan land use and Local Facilities
Management Plan assumptions for intensity/density.
Land uses will be tabulated in General Plan land use
categories sufficiently specific to make meaningful
estimates of impacts on traffic and public facilities.
Anticipated development will be compared to the current
General Plan and Zoning.
3.8. Traffic Circulation. Traffic considerations
associated with the project will be reviewed by Weston
Pringle & Associates to Identify potentially significant
traffic impacts.
Existing traffic conditions In the area will be
documented, including the average daily traffic volume on
arterial streets. The data used in this analysis will be
obtained from the General Plan Traffic Circulation and
Facility Management Plans, and other available traffic
studies.
The analysis of future traffic conditions will include
average daily traffic volumes on arterial streets and
will also rely on the General Plan Traffic Circulation
and Facility Management Plans. Traffic growth from the
existing condition will be estimated, based on the future
land use scenario developed for the General Plan plus
growth in background traffic. Traffic operational and
safety concerns including truck routing adjustments will
be considered.
Potential mitigation measures will be identified for
achieving acceptable short- and long-term future
conditions. Should design revisions to road
configuration occur (for example, modification to the
Melrose/Rancho Santa Fe Road intersection) and additional
analysis be required, adjustment of the scope of work
and cost may be necessary.
3.9, Public Services, The potential for the project,
cumulatively with similar projects in the vicinity, to
add fire, police and other service requirements will be
identified through discussions with the appropriate
agencies. Specific mitigation measures will be
identified based on these discussions.
G
. S
3.10. Utilities. Utility impacts, particularly
those on water, sewer, storm drains, power, natural
gas and solid waste disposal systems, will be
identified based on discussions with service
providers. System demand will be estimated based on
recognized engineering design factors, and demands
related to available system capacity, If known, to
identify deficiencies. Specific mitigation measures
for each system will be identified based on
discussions with service providing agencies.
Construction components (drainage structures, utility
undergrounding, etc.) included in the proposed
project will be included as mitigation measures.
3.11. Aesthetics/Landform Alteration. Potential
aesthetic Impacts will be identified and discussed in
terms of alterations to the natural setting and
landform. Specific attention will be devoted to
vegetation removal and grading impacts as they relate
to the City's Hillside Review Ordinance.
Mitigation measures to deal with potential impacts
will be identified and methods of implementing
mitigation measures recommended.
3.12. Archaeological/Historical. An archaeological
field survey of the 684 acre project area and record
searches will be conducted by Roth & Associates to
identify site locations and possible resources. This
Initial survey will confirm the location of some or
all of the 28 sites previously identified by FRC as
being within a one-mile radius of the planned road
realignment. Evaluation of the importance of the
sites may result in recommendations for subsurface
testing and significance determinations. Costs
associated with such testing cannot presently be
estimated and are not included in this proposal.
This portion of the scope of work does not presently
include an assessment of paleontological resources.
This assessment can be included at additional cost if
desired by the city.
Section 4. Alternatives.
The impacts of key project alternatives will be addressed
in discussion and summary table. Alternatives addressed
will include the no project alternative, road widening in
the existing alignment, and road realignment without
residential area grading. Alternatives will be reviewed
with the City, and minimum of three alternatives will be
discussed In some detail in the EIR. Additional
alternatives will increase EJR costs.
1
. .
Section 5. Areas o flo Significant Impact.
This section will Include identification of those Impacts
not found to be significant and not further discussed in
the EIR.
Section 6. Short and Long Term Environmental Impact.
The potential for the project to achieve short-term
objectives at the expense of long-term goals will be
reviewed.
Section 7. Significant Irreversible Environmental Changes.
This section will Identify significant irreversible
environmental changes which may result from the proposed
project.
Section 8. Growth-Inducing Impacts.
The potential for the project to induce growth or remove
barriers to growth will be identified.
Section 9. Cumulative Effects.
The cumulative impact or this project with other known
projects and development in accordance with the General
Plan will be identified. Specific areas to be emphasized
in discussing cumulative impacts Include traffic, air
quality, noise and public facilities and services impacts.
Section 10. Organizations and Persons Consulted.
This section will identify those organizations and persons
consulted In preparation of the Draft EIR.
Mitigation Monitoring Program. A mitigation monitoring
program will be incorporated into the EIR in accordance
with Section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code and will
be included as an appendix to the EIR.
