The proposed slope will affect 3 lots in this area. The proposed slope ~ill toe out into an existing natural drain- age course, traversing the currently vacant adjacent property to El Camino Real on the west. Future development of th:i,s 4(jffsite area will necessitate the filling of the drainage ~ourse with th~ resultant lowering of the overall height of the ptopdse4 slope. It is the opinion of this firm that the proposed 2:1 fill slope may be constructed without the installation of the midslope ter~ race, providing the slope is backrolled at max~mum 4 foot vertical intervals using a sheepsfoot roller and grid or track rolled for slope surface compac tion. The fill slope shall be p.lanted with' a deep rooted, light weight ground cover and properly maintained. No surface water runoff shall be allowe~ to flow from the a~jacerit lots over the slope surface.

Very truly yours~ • Page One March 12, 1976 Job No_: 6-28 INTRODUCTION This report presents the results of a soils investigation for the proposed Carlsbad Tract No. 74-5, a thirty lot subdivision, to be located northeast of the intersection of El Camino Real and Appian Road, in the City of Carlsbad, County of San Diego, California. Figure No. 1 presents ~ plan of the site indicating the pertinent soils and geologic data regarding the site. The object of this investigation was to gather infor~ation and data regarding the surface and subsurface soils conditions, upon which to base our recommendations for the safe and econo- mical development of the site for the proposed single family residences. The geologic conditions pertinent to the proposed development have been mapped and analyzed by Engineering Geologist, Robert H. Dickey, and the geologic recommenda tions are included in th.e Geologic Report dated March 7, 1976, attached as a part of this report. SITE CONDITIONS The subject site occupies approximately 10 acres of vacant proper ty bounded on the sou th by Appi-an Road, 'on the wes t by E1 Camino Real; on the east by Elm Ave. (unimproved) and on the north by currently undeveloped land. An existing residence is situated near the southeast corner of the property at the intersection of Appian Road and Elm Avenue. The site is expressed topographically by g~ntly ro11ing hills drained to the northwes~ by two deeply incised natural drain- age courses. Two major cut slopes have been excavated des- cending approximately 40 feet to E1 Camino Real ~n the west and 50 feet to Elm Ave. on the east. Minor cutting and filling -is evident along Appian Road on the south side of the property. Previous grading has occurred on lots 1,2, and 24,25,26 resulting in the removal of the surficial soils and the deposit~on of loose spoil fill material on lots 23,25 and peripheral to the top of the. southerly drainage course to control surface runoff. A considerable amount of debris laden fill has been dumped at the head of the northerly drainage course on lots 27 and 28. The surface of the s~te is presently mantled by a moderate to heavy growth of native weeds, grasses and scattered brush with numerous trees and heavy brush growing in the natural drainase courses. • Page Two March 12, 1976 Job No: 6-28 The soils encountered on the site consisted of top soil composed of generally loose, dark brown, clayey sand and locally sandy clay overlying dense bedrock composed of sandstone'with local interbeds of siltstone and cong~o~erate containing rock to 4" in diameter. The thickness of top~oil encountered in the test holes varied from 1.5" to 3.5'. No ground water was encountered in the test holes to the depths explored and no caving of the side walls was experienced during their excavation. FIELD INVESTIGATION The subsurface soils conditions were explored by excavating six (6) engineering test holes to depths of 5 to 10 fe~t usi~g a backhoe. The approximate location of each test hole is shown on Figure No.1, a plan of the site on a scale of 1 inch equals 60 feet, prepared by Weacco, Inc., dated 3-27-74. A continuous log of each test hole was kept in the field at the time of excavation. These logs, attached to this report. as figures 2 through 7, reflect the condition and fype of each soil strata encountered based on the Un~fied System of So~l Classification as devised by A. Casagrande. Relatively undisturbed samples of the subsurface soils were obtained using a 2.5 inch diamete+ hollow-tube sampler. Disturbed samples of the typical soils encountered were also recovered to be subjected to laboratory testing and analysis~ LABORATORY INVESTIGATION In-situ moisture and density tests were performed on the un- disturbed samples and the results of these tests are shown on the appropriate test hole log at the depth sampled. Als~ shown are the results of tests made to determine the relative compaction of the undisturbed samples compared to the maximum den~ity as determined by ASTM test method D1557-70. Res~lts of the laboratory tests including the expansion index ·of the typical soils on the site, as determined by U~B.C. Standard No. 29-2, are as follows: Soil Type Max. Den. Opt. Moist. Expan.

The consolidation potential of a typical sample of the un- disturbed subsurface soils is presented on the Pressure-Void Ratio Curve attached as Figure No. 10. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: , Development of the site, as proposed, is considered feasible from a soils engineering standpoi.nt based on the impl-,ementatioIi and incorporation of the following recommendations into the site preparation, grading and construction of the proposed structures. SITE PREPARATION: Prior to the placement of any fill the surface vegetation shall be stripped and hauled offsite along with iny surface debris and wooden fence posts. The bottoms of the existing incised drainage courSes shall be cleared of existing vegetation which shall be hauled offsite. The existing loose surface alluvial soils in the bottoms of the drainage courses shall be removed to expose competent underlying bedrock soils deemed suitable by the soils engineer for support of the surcharging £ill soils. A .imimum equipment width wide shear key shall be excavated at the toe of the pro- posed major fill slopes to a depth of 2.0 feet into approved bedrock. Upon completion of the clean-out of the major drai~age courses, a determination will be made for the necessity of the subdrainage system based on the exposed soil conditions. If deemed nec- essary, a gravel and perforated'pipe subdrain wil~ be designed as required. Page Four March 12, 1976 • Job No :6-28 The existing uncertified fills ,shall be removed .nd in- corporated into the compacted fill where not proposeu to be r~moved by the cutting operation. You are tef,rred to ~he attached plan, Figure No.1, for location of the existing major fills. Prior to the placing of any filIon the propoaed fill-over~ cut slopes, the existing top soil shall be removed to ~xpose the bedrock and an equipment width wide bench shall be pro- vided along th~ daylight line. As recommended by the ge6~ logist, the cut portion of these slopes should first be excavated to the lower pad grade elevation and inspected ,by the geologist. - GRAD:J:NG: . Fill soils shall be spread in 6 to 8 inc~-~oose lifts, w.tered to near optimum moisture condition and compacted to i~ excess of 90% of the maximum density as determined by ASTM test m~thod D 1557-70 by means of a sheepsfoot roller or ot'her approved means of compaction. Fill slopes shall be backrolled at maxi- mum 4 foot vertical intervals with a sheepsfoot roller and grid or track rolled for surface compaction. The existing and proposed cut slopes and proposed fill slopes are considered grossly stable against large scale fa~lure. Due to the sandycohesionless nature of the bedrock material, the slope sU,rfaces will be susceptible to erosion and iocal surface flow unless properly maintained and planted. with a suitable deep rooted light weight groundcover. Ice pl.nt is not recommended for slope planting. No surfaee runoff shall be allowed to flow over the face of the slopes~ EXPANSIVE SOILS: The expansion potential of the surface soils on the site is considered medium; however the soils to be exposed at depth by the proposed grading are considered low to ver~low. It is recommended that upon completion of grading, a lot by lot evaluation of the expansive soils that w~ll direetly af~ect shallow foundations and concrete slabs be made and arty re- medial construction measures deemed necess.ry will be made at that time. FOUNDATIONS: The proposed structure may bes.upported on c'onventional square and continuous footings founded into firm natural'ground or certified compacted. fill. A soil bearing value of 1500 P.S.F. may be used for footings imbedded a minimum depth of 12 inches in to these soils. The ul tima te: dept:..!!..Jor foundations will ·b e determined by the expansion potential of the su~porting soils. 7 Page Five March 12, 1976 • Job No: 6-28 This -determination will be made upon completion of the pro- posed grading. ,&_,=~ .. 4. __ The bearing value shown is for dead and live loads and may be increased 1/3 for temporary horizontal forces. Lateral values may be computed at 300 P.S.F. per foot of depth to a maximum value of 4000 P.S.F. The recommendations contained in this report are based on the results of our field and laboratory investigations, combined with the principles of modern soil mechanics and sound en~ gineering ju4gment. Should any unusual condition arise or drastic design change be contemplated, this firm shall be notified immediately in order that proper modification may be made as deemed necessary.

THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF THEPROj>OSED ACTION l' . PROTECT DESCRIPTION The Quail Ridge project involves'the planned residential development of approximately 107 acres of vacant land. A rezone from R-I-10 ,DOD to R-1-7, 500 will be required in order to implement the project. The project site is located southeast of the intersection of El Camino Real and Route 78 in the northern portion of the City of Carlsbad. 'The San Diego County Assessor's Office records the property in Map Book 167, Pages 9 and 10, Rancho Agua Hedionda (Map 823), Parcels 1 and 13. The development I as proposed, will consist of a total of 234 three I four, and five bedroom single-family homes, 50 to 60 percent 'of which will be constructed on theater lots. Dwelling units will be of one and two-story design utilizing wood frame and stucco constrllction. Each unit will include a 2 or 3 car enclosed garage. Approximatel~cres of land will remain as open space. Selling prices are e.stimated to range from $40 ,000 to $60 1000. It is anticipated that construction will be accomplished in three phases of approximately 78 units each. In addition, the 6. 5:f: acre s of rend located in the extreme northwest appendage of the site may be develo.ped at a future date to accommodate multi-family residential housing at a maximum density of 20 dwelling units per acre. Primary access to th~ site, as a whole, will be made available with the extension of Elm Avenue. Prior to development of the site, it will be necessary for Leadership Housing Systems, Incorporated to acquire the 3. 5± acre Cit~t-owned pi,stol 1 I I I I: -I I I I ,I' I I I I I, I' I' I I I ~ range and dump located in the central portion of the property. An alternative to outright purchase of the pistol range would be a land exchange agree- ment between the City of Carlsbad and the developers ,possibly f<>r the p-roposed open space area located in the northwest portion of the site. The total population anticipated to, reside in the Quail R1dge develop.., < ment is expected to ~dividuals (3.5 x 234 units). The total adult population is expected to be about 468 (2 x 234 units). In addition, there should be approximately 229 school age children. The remainder of the population (122) will be divided .up between preschool age children, older children I and miscellaneous adults. 2 I I I I i I 'll15 I l@ I f' """ § , ~ (.~ l'~>' . I j' .

ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING WITHOUT THE PROJECT Land Use The Quail Ridge project site is situated in the northernmost portion of the City of Carlsbad I 0.3 mile south of Oceanside i 36 mil~s north of San Diego, 1.6 miles west of Vista, and 2~Omiles east of the Southern California coastline. With the exception of the 3 .5± acre pistol ran<;;Je and' dump ,the site is composed of vacant land traversed by <;lirt ro~cis ~nd trails. A ' 150-foot San Diego Gas and Electric power line easement crosse$ the northwestern appendage of the site and parallels the southwestpro,perty boundary. The project site'is presently zoned R-I-IO ,DOD by the City of Carlsbad. This zoning allows for residential development at a maximum density of 4 dwelling units per acre. According to the Carlsbad General Plan" the subject property is deSignated for low density residential development at a density of 3 to 7 dwelling units per net acre. Approximately 4 acres of the site is shown a&~9J;"eenbelt on the Open Space Element of the Carlsbad General Plan. The Quail Ridge site is bounded on the south, and east by vacant lln- developed land zoned R-I-IO ,000. Further east, is County-zoned agri- cultural land, portions of which are presently under cultivation. :North of the site is the Buena Vista Creek Floodplain, beyond which lies the Route 78 Freeway. West of Quail Ridge Is the Tiburon proJect, a planne,d community development of approxlmc;1tely 500 multi-family resIdential units. Northwest of the site is a proposed C-2 zoned commercial site. 5 I I I :1 'I I, I 'I: 'I I I I' I 'I I I 'I I I Climate The climate .of San Diego County is commonly classified as meqiter- ranean. However, this classification is not entirely accurate a,s there is considerable variation depending upon terrain, elevation, and distance from the ocean. The project site is located in northern San Diego County, two miles east of the Southern California coastline. Although this location is semi- arid, temperatures are seldom extreme and show a relatively small annual range. Temperature s at the site are modified by the influence of the Pacific Ocean. While no precise data is available, records from Camp Pendleton can be used to provide an indication of temperature s in proxlmity to the project site.

Circulation patterns established by this system alloW mid-latitude cYclonic 6 ~I 'I I ·f I I, I I' I I I' 'I I I I I, I, I I disturbances to drift across San Diego Coun'ty during the winter months, making summer precipitation extremely rare. Occasionally early fall tro;.. pical disturbances bring significant precipitation to Southern California. Although relative seasonality of precipitation can be e·stimated, yearly totals are highly variable. Such variability is typical of semi-arid climates. Monthly preCipitation records for Camp Penqleton indicate the amount -of rainfall experienced by the area in which the project site is situated.

This station has the capacity to measure total photochemical levels only. During the first half of 1973 I the Federal total photochemical oxidant standard of 0.08 parts per million and the State standard of 0 • 10 parts per million were equalled or exceeded 25 and 20 percent of the days, respectively. The principal factors affecting pollutant concentrations and, hence I ambient air quality are: the downwind distance between the receptor and the source I the wind speed and associated turbulence, the source strength, and the mixing depth. The greater the distance between source and receptor, 7 I I I , I I I I I I I I. I I I I I. I I the more chance there is for dispersion to occur and, hence, lessen the concentration. Higher wind speeds have .the effect of increasing the amount of air into which the emitted pollutants are dispersed. In effect, this causes a greater dilution. Vertical turbulence promotes the disperSion of pollutants from a continuous Hne source, such as a highway. The mix- ing depth directly affects the volume of clean air available to dilute the pollutants. Contaminants emitted into the atmosphere are dispersed horizontally and vertically, depending on the wind and atmospheric stability. Li<]ht winds and stable atmospheric conditions near the ground are conducive to high concentrations of air pollutants. Except in special cases I both factors are necessary~ neither one by itself is sufficient to bring about excessive air pollution. The most obvious effect of the wind is to establish the direction in which pollutants are carried and the amount of air that is available for diluting emis sions • The wind al so cause s vertical and hor- izontal mixing through mechanical turbulence. Such turbulence re suIts from the irregularity of the ground and depends on the stability of the air. Surface winds over the project area exhibit the same g~neral char- acteristics as the winds along the entire Southern California coast. Such air flow shows seasonal variations upon which are superimposed daily land' and sea-breeze effects. Wa.rm seasop winds flow from sea to land with a reversal during the cold season. Such winds are a natural consequence of the large-scale weather factors determining climate. The daytime sea- 8 I I I' I I J I I I I I I I I, I I I' I 'I breeze and nighttime land-breeze result from greater heating and cooling of the air over land as contrasted with very slight daily changes in air temperature over the sea. In summer I the large-sc.ale meteoroiogical features favor the daytime sea-breeze an,d oppose the nocturnal land-breeze , while in winter the opposite is the case. The stability of the atmosphere is important in determining the extent pollutants are vertically dispersed. If the atmosphere is unstable I pol~u­ tants continue to move in the direction of displacement. During less stable conditions I pollutants are more readily mixed and carried aloft. For pollution purposes I atmospheric stability is largely 'determined by the lapse rate or the decrease of temperature with a1tituqe. II). the lower portion of the atmosphere, the lapse rate averages approximately 1.9 , degrees centigrade or 3.5 degrees Fahrenheit per 1, 000 feet.. Within a few thousand feet of the earth's surface I air temperature frequently increases with altitude. This is called a temperature inversion, as the lapse rate is inverted. The low dispersion rate of pollutants I in a staple atmosphere associated with a temperature inversion I signHicantly degrades the air qua l1ty due to a decrease' in volume of air available to dilute the pollutants. Since the project site is four miles southeast of the monitoring statiort, the levels recorded at the station can at best serve as an approximate indi- cation of air quality in the project area. Reduction of pollutant levels I as measured by the monitoring station I would res1,llt from pollutant dtffu'sion by the winds. 9 I I I I' I I I I' I I I' I: I' ,I J I I I I . Terrain consisting of low lying hills between the monitoring station and the project site may tend to reduce pollutant levels in the vicinity of the project as the winds are pushed up. Air pollution from the community " of Vista located about three miles to the northeast of the project might increase pollutant levels in the Vicinity of the project; howevez:, ,prevailing winds to the east are not expected to allow this to ha.ppen. The air quality of Quail Ridge is expected to be above that of down- town Carlsbad and Vista because it is not located in a densely populated urban area. Therefore I air in the general vicinity of the project contains measured pollutants in concentrations th~t exceed both Federal and State ambient air quality standards a :certain percentage of the day s, but not , . to, the same degree as that monitored in the Carlsbad-Qceanside area. Topography The Quail Ridge project site is an irregularly-shaped parcel of land comprising an area of approximately 107 acres. The general appearance of the topography is one of hilly terrain cut by drainage a,t'eas c;>£ varying width and depth. A 75-foot deep ravine cuts through the central portion of the property. Existing ground elevations across the site vary between a low of approx- imately 80 feet in the lowest valley to a high of 360 feet ne·ar the top of the highe st hill in the southeast corner of the site. According to q slope analysis prepared by Rick Engineering Company I 52 percent of the site ha's existing slopes in excess of 15 percent. 10 I, I I I' I' I I I: I I I 'I' I I I I I I I Surface soils across the site are characterized by extensive shrinkage . cracks. In addition, leaning fence posts on hillsides may be evidence that surface soils, in some areas, are undergoing slow, dbwnhi,ll cr~ep movement. Geology A preliminary geologie reconnaissance of the Quail Ridge site was conducted by Lowne y-Kaldveer and As sociate s, Foundation, Soil i and Geological Engineers. The purpose of the recohilaissance was to make an evaluation of the geotechnical features of the site for use in the early planning stage s of the project. The scope of work performed in the geologic study included a site reconnaissance, a review of available published and, unpublished information regarding the geotechnical condition~ in the general vicinity of the site, and the preparation of a letter report. The site is thought to be underlain by sandstone, conglomerate i and siltstone rocks of Eocene Age. Based on the general topography of the area and an inspection of the materials exposed in existing cut slopes in the vicinity of the site, the thickness of soil overburden in the higher portions of the property is probably on the order of 2 to 5 feet. in valley bottoms, bedrock is probably covered by substantially greater thicknesses of alluvial soil. The City-owned property in the central portion of the site is covered with fill, debris, and rubble. At its deepest point, the fill appears to be about 30 feet thick. There is surficial evidence that the fill has undergone 11 ,I I I I' I I I I: I I I 'I I I ,I I. I I I some settlement and is probably in a poorly compacted condition. BM-led on an inspection of existing cut slopes in the general viCin,j.ty 01 the site and a review of available information provided by the City of Carlsbad, the soil and rock conditions underlying rp.ost of the site consist of a thin mantle (2 to 5 feet) of dark-colored, potentially expansive clayey' soil. Compre ssible alluvial soils, consisting of clays , silts and sands I may be present in valley bottoms. Seismicity Southern California lies in a seismically active area and has ~een placed in seismic risk probability zone no. 3. This corres,ponds to the fI'obability of the area experiencing earthquake generated intensities of VIII or greater on the Modified Mercalli Scale. In an area subje.cted to earthquake induced ground accelerations of VIn, damage may be antici- pated to be slight in specially-designed structures, considerable .in. ordinary substantial buildings, and great in poorly-built structures. For Modified Mercalli Scale intensities greater than VIII, ground accel:ations and, correspondingly I property damage may be expected to be greater. According to the GeologiC Hazards Element of the Carlsbad General Plan (RM-3) and the Seismic Safety Element of the Corrtprehens'1ve Planning Organization, no active faults are pre sent in the area. The nearest active faults are the Elsinore Fault and the San JaCinto Fault, located 22 miles and 46 miles northeast of the site I respectively. The Rose Canyon Fault, a potentially active fault I is located approximately 9 miles west of the site 12 I I I I I' I I I I I I I 'I I I· I I I I \ under the Pacific Ocean. I' I No major earthquakes have been recorded, or are known to have occurred, near the project site. However I numerous minor, low-magnitude quakes . have been reported but have cause little I if any I damage. The ,nearest major recorded earthquakes to the Quail Ridge area have occurred along the San JaCinto Fault Zone. These earthquakes had Richter Scale magnitudes ranging from 6.0 to 6.8 and produced Modified Mercalli Scal~ intensitte s in the Quail Ridge area on the order of V to VI. Hydrology and Water Quality According to the Water Quality Control Plan of the, C~lifornla State Water Resources Control Board, the proposed Quail Ridge project stte 1's located within the Carlsbad Hydro Unit. This hydrologic unit can be generally characterized as one undergoing rapid urbanization with limited and declining land area devoted to agriculture. With the exception or the Agua Hedionda Subunit I groundwater basins are generally shallow ami pro- duce water of marginal quality. The majority of surface runoff from the project site presently flows north into Buena Vista Creek. The drainage area of Buena Vista Creek (approximately 19 square miles) in long and narrow with a distance of about nine miles from the Pacific Ocean to its highest peak of 1,671 feet Mean Sea Level. The floodplain limits of Buena Vista Creek do not extend into the project site. 13 I I I I I ,I I I: I I I 'I' I: I I I I I I Buena Vista Creek is joined by several tributaries within a mile or two downstream from its origin in the San Marcos Mountains. Approxi- mately one-half mile further downstream, Buena Vista Creek peccmes an ·improved channel and continues in an improved conditiohto just down- stream of Hacienda Drive. From here, it is a natural channel of narrow width and fairly wide overbanks, av.eraging about 4Q,0 to 500 feet in width before entering an improved channel about one-half mile upstream of El Camino Real. Flow continues in the improved channel where tt is discharged into Buena Vista Lagoon. The water level in Buena Vista Lagoon is maintained by an inflow of rising groundwater and return irrigation water from the upstream aregS of Buena Vista Creek. A sandbar across the mouth of the lagoon forms an ocean beach which has not been breached for several years. A portion of the lagoon has been designated as a bird sanctuarY. Flora Nearly all of the land has been cultivated as pastuteland at some time in the past and is now covered by ruderalweeds and grasses, which are interrupted by Coastal Sage Scrub in very limited areas. Small aggre- gations of Coastal Sage Scrub members are also found in the west and south-facing gullies. The only habitat in its naturalcortdition is a small area located in a ravine running to the north-northwest of the pistol range which lie s in the central portion of the property; 14 . I I I I, I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I The Quail Ridge property is covered predominantly'by fallow pastuI"e- land I with only one to two acres vegetated by Coastal Sage Scrub com- munities. A detailed description of the two vegetative communities fOllows. All data was collected by walking the property and driving the· access roads. Species identification and nomenclature fol!owMunz .(1965). The higher elevations on the property '(22'S to 350 feet) are dominated by introduced grasses and weeds. The principal members of this savannah are three species of Oats (Avena. sPP.) I two species of Chess Grass (Bromus spp.), Tumble Mustard (Sisymbrium alti-ss.imum), TarWsed (Hemizonia s p.) and Storksbill (Erodium s p.). TWo e,Kce ption's should be noted. One is the extreme northeast corner of the site, where tbe north-facing slope supports a large stand of Fennel (Foeniculum 'vtilQ"are) interspersed with California Sagebrush (Aryemesia californica) I Bird's Foot Trefoil (Lotus Scoparius) and Flattop Buckwheat (Er1oqonutn fasci- culatum). The second exception I is an area which surfol,lnds a small dump I immediately southeast of the pistol range. This area is sparsely covered by Tree Tobacco (Nictotiana glauca) and Russian'Thistle (Sa1501a kali var. tenuifol1a). The flatland areas and gradual slopes below 200 feet are blanketed with dense populations of Field Mustard (Bras sica campestris), Black Mustard (Brasslca nigra), and scattered SWeet Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) • Chess grasses (Bromus spp.) serve as the primary understory in these communities. Very few native species were found. A complete accounting 15 I I I I I I I J I I I I 'I' I I I I I I of the observed grassland species appears in the appendix. Two stages of Coastal Sage Scrub succession are found on the pro- perty. The west and south-facing gullies are dominated by California Sagebrush (Artemisia cal1fornica) and Encelia (Encelia 'californica), with occasional California Buckwheat (Eriogonum fasciculatum) I Ooastal Tuna Cactus (Opuntia littoralis), Lemonade Berry (Rhus integrifolia) and Black Sage (Salvia Mellifera). A secondary succession stage is found in the deep, more mesic ravine which runs north-northwest from the pistol range. This area is characterized by large Toyon (Heteromeles) arbutifolia), Lemonade Berry (Rhus integrifolia) I Laurel-leaved Sumac (Rhus laurina) I Flannel Brush (Fremontia Californica var.' diegensis) and in the more open areas I two kinds of Thistle (Cirsium spp~) and Wood-sorrel (Oxalis pilosa). California Sagebrush (Artemesia californica) and Encelia (Encelia californica) constitute the major portion of the vegetation (approx- imately 75 percent) in this Coastal Sage Scrub community. 'Both type s of Coastal Sage Scrub exhibit the expecte'd understory annuals I with the most abundant being Wild Oats (Avena fatua) and Tat .... weed (Hemizonia sp.). Other less frequent understory ~ssociates are Foxtail Chess Grass (Bromus rubens) I Storksbill (Erodium), PopcorhFlower (Cryptantha sp.) I and Everlasting OnaphaUum sp.) An overview of the vegetation on the site shows a paucity of native plants. Those present are confined primarily to the few ravines and gullies. 16 I I I :1 I I I I I I I J 1 J I I :1 ) ), " Fauna A survey of amphibians, reptile s, mammals I and birds was conducted by walking and driving throughout the property. _ A pair of 7 x 35 mm~,-bin- oculars were used to aid in observation. Sightings as well as oth~r evi- dence, including tracks, burrows, dens, feces, vocalizations and ne~ts were used to determine the presence of animals. An appended species list represents fauna seen, or expected, on the basis of habitat availability. , ' The lack of habitat diversity on the parcel is reflected by the rela- tively small numbers and species of ,animals using the site. The fallow, pastureland is utilized primarily by only four species or rode rit s and several species of birds. The only vegetative area of importance is the small ravine running north-northwest from the' pistol range. This- small area of Coa stal Sage Scrub habitat and, to a much Ie s s'er extent, the other shallow gullies with California Sagebrush (Artemisia californica) and Encelia (Encelia californica), provide cover for a more diverse avian and non-avian vertebrate fauna. The grassland habitat on this prop3 rty supports few animals i;md birds. Rodent burrows of the California Meadow Vole (Microtus californicus) I the Western Harvest Mouse (Reithrodontomys megalotis), and the Pocket Gopher (Thomonys bottae) were found in the areas where some scattered cover exists. The other major users of the pastureland are a few snakes (California Kinqsnake, Lampropeltis getulus: Gopher Snake, Pituophis 1Jl--planeleu..Qll.§), and a number of bird species including: Savannah Sparrows, 17 I I I I I I I I I I I 'I I I I I I I ,I Western Meadowlarks, Mourning Doves, Red-tailed Hawks., White- tailed Kites, Marsh Hawks, and Sparrow' Hawks. The hunting pressure exerted by these birds of prey seems,to be great, but i~ concentrated on the interface areas between the Coastal Sage Scrub and grassland. Because of the limited amount of suitable habitat, only three spec!es, "-of amphibians would be expected to occur on the site. One of these" the" Pacific Treefrog (Hyla regilla) was heard in the deep north-northwe'st factng ravine. No indication of the others, the Western Toad (Sufo boreas) I and the Western Spadefoot Toad (Scaphiopus hammondi) was noted. Although no snake s were seen, the plant community probably supports small nUm- bers of these reptiles, among which are the Red Racer (Masticophis flagel- lum), the Striped Racer (Masticophis lateralis), and the' GopJ:1er Snake (Pituophis melanoleucus). Other reptiles which were observed were the Side-blotch Lizard (Uta stansburiana) and the We stern' Fence Lizard (Sce10- ..Q,orus occidentalis). Several small mammals were sighted in the vicinity of the pistol range. The se included Sylvilagus bachmani, the Brush Rabbit, Sylvilagus auduboni, Audubon I s Cottontail, and Otospermophilus beecheyi, the California Ground Squirrel. Additional small rodents associated with the Coastal Sage Scrub include Little Pocket Mouse, Perognathus longimembris; the San Diego Pocket Mouse, P. fallax; the California Pocket Mouse, P. californicus; the Agile Kangaroo Rat, Dipodomys agi11s I the Harvest Mouse, _Reithrodontomys megalotis; the California Deer Mouse,. Peromyscus califomicus; the Cactus Mouse, P. eremicus and the Dusky-footed Wood Rat, Neotoma fuscipes). Coyote (Canis latrans) scat and skunk odor indicated the associ- 18 I I 'I I I I I I I I I I I 'I I I I I I ation of these larger mammals with the Coastal Sage Scrub. The richest animal communities were found'in the deep ravine where _ the existing cover is greate st. This is demonptrated by the diversity of tho flvinn community I the most prevalent species of which are Common Bushtitri I Wrentits, Brown Towhees I Rufous-sided Towh(3es, and Anna's Hummingbirds. No rare or endangered species were observed, or are expected to occur, on the property. History The first people for whom a culture has been defined, in Southern California are known as the San Dieguito, who date fro'in appro,ximately 10,000 B.C. to 7,000 or 6,000 B.C. They practiced a hunting and gathering economy I moving seasonally to exploit the resource's present in various ecological zones in Southern California. The La Jollans (named after a site in the La Jolla area) inhabited much of Southern California from around 7,000 to 6,000 B. C. I until about 500 A.D. The La Jollan were part of an Early Milling Archaic Complex which practiced a hunting and gathering economy I with an emphasis on milling. This involved the gathering of seeds that could be ground (milled) with manos (hand held stone) and metates (the stone upon which the grinding is performed).. Along with seed collection, the I.a Jollans colle cted great quantitie s of seafood. Therefore I their coastal cumpsites and villages are characterized by manos I metate$ I various other 19 I I I I I I I I I I I I I 'I I I I I .1 lithic tools, and large numbers of shells. The La ToUan sites generally contain crude stone tools instead of the finely worked stone found with the San Dieguito sites. The soil at La Tollan sites commonly contains dark-brown midden, an accumulation of charcoal and organic. debris re- sulting from long term human occupation. The La Tollans were replaced or absorbed in this part of Southern California by a people known as the Luiseno around 500 A.b. The LUiseno, named after the Mission San Luis Rey de Fraficia, occupied a somewhat irregular territory, larger in the interior than on the doast (Kroeber, 1925). They were part of the Late MUiing Archaic Complex, whose sites are characterized by grinding implements I pottery, and finely worked small points. The resources they used were 'seeds I ae.orns i a variety of plants, and shellfish. t'he Luiseno are known to have had special resources camps 'su'ch as processing stations for acorns I or a coastal camp for seafooddollection. Archaeology Prior to conducting a detailed, on-foot field survey of the Quail Ridge property, the records of the San Diego Museum of Man and the Department of Anthropology, San Diego State University I were searched to determine whether or not any known archaeological sit~s are 'located within the pro- perty boundarie s . Both institutions indicated that a site exists in the northeastern portion of the property. The San Diego Museum of Man identifies the site as W-13.6, 20 I I I I I I I I I I I I I 'I I I I I I "Luiseno camps with trace of La Jollan. II This site was recotqed by Malcolm Rogers in the 1930 IS. San Diego State . University records the site as SDi-631, La Jollan (artifacts included manos, metate fragments, cnoppers and hammerstones: no sherds or shell). On February 15, a detailed, on .... foot field survey of the Quail Ridge property was conducted by David D. Smith andAssociates~ During the course of the survey, two archaeological sites were located. The first is si~uated in the northeast section of the property, defined previously as W-136 and SDi-631. The site was determined to be oval in shape, approximately 175 feet on its long northwest-southeast axis, and 100 feet on its' short axis. It is bisected by a dirt road, and covered by a thick. mat of grasses·. On this site, a total of 17 prehistoric artifacts were located, mostly in the area of the dirt road. A breakdown of the artifacts noted is as follows: 7 manos, 2 hammerstone s, 1 portable metate fragment, 4 flakes, 1 Tizon Brown Ware potsherd, and 2 shell fragments. Post Holes were duq at several locations on the site, but neither mid- den soil or extensive shell material was found to be present. The fact that some shell and a sherd were located, conflicts with the data reported by San Diego State University. The second site located during the field' survey lies in the extreme northwest corner of the property. One-quarter of the site extends off the property to the north. The site is roughly crescent-shaped, with the .long. northwest-southeast axis measuring approximately 400 feet and the short 21. I I I I I I I I I I I I I 'I I I I I I axis measuring about 60 feet. Thll s11:0 contains midden mn terlf1l with n high clay content. In add- ition I shell material covers much of the site and extends to a depth of '16-inches in some areas. Shell material was decomposed, fragmented, and had lost its luster. A total of 26 artifacts were located on this site during the survey, and were representative of both La Tollan and San Diegu!to cultures. Two choppers, eight manos, and 15 flakes were identified ~s La Jollan artifacts, and one chopper of San Diegu!to age. The chopper has been identif~,ecl as a San Dieguito II implement (San Dieguito II predates the San Diegu!to III, predecessors of the La JoUans) • 22 I I I I: I -I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 3. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS Land Use As indicated in the project description, rezoning of the 107 acre site to R-1-7,500 will allow for the construction of a residential communit.y con.., sisting of 234 detached single-family homes". In addition, a total of approxi.,.." mately 30 acres of land (including the 4± acres of greenbelt shown on the Open Space Element) will be dec;Ucated to thei City of Carlsbad as permanent open space. Re sidentlal development of the subject property isapproptiate. in view of adjacent development. The proposed density of 2.19 dwelling units per acre conforms to both the San Diego County Gen~ral "Plan (1-11 d.u./acre) and the Carlsbad General Plan (3-7 d.u./acre). The regional plannIng studies of the Comprehensive Planning Organization show the majortty of the project site with the II are a available for staged urban growth. II The northernmost portion of the site is shown as "hills.lqe zone. II Agriculture According to the Agricultural Resource Element of the C<:'Irlsbad General Plan (RM-4), approximately 8 acres of the project site is designated as "Prime Agricultural Soils Class II." These soils are found in the north- west appendage of the site. Since no development "is anticipated in this portion of the property, there will be no associated environmental impact. The impact of the proposed project on agriculture will be greatest in 23 " I I I I I I I I ,I I I I I I I I I I I its secondary effects. With the construction of new roads qnd the. ex- tension of utilities into th~ project area I an impetus .for urban growth may be formed. This condition could have the effect'of encouraging development by increasing land values I thereby making surrounding cultivated land Ie ss attractive for agriculture. Topography The irregular topography 'of the project site will require cut and fill operations in order to construct access roads and building sites. An estimated 900 ,000 cubic yards of soil will be moved in the grading pro- cess. The effect of this grading will be to permanently alte'r natural sol1 arrangements and the natural topography of the project site. The Quail Ridge development will conform to the Hillside Element6f the Carlsbad General Plan (RM-3). Based on a land coverage of 12. 3± acre s (8.3 acre s for streets and 4.0 acre s for housing units) I cover- age for all slopes in excess of 15 percent amounts to 23 percent. According to the General Plan, maximum land cove,rage for average slopes' of 15 to 25 percent is 40 percent I and the maximum land area per dwelling unit is 7500 square feet. Geology On the basis of the preliminary geotechnical reconnaissance I it is the opinion of Lowney-Kalveer and Associates that there are no geotechnical conditions at the sHe that would be prohibitive with respect to the proposed 24 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I re sidential ~evelopment. Of major concern, however 1 is the· highly erosive nature of the La Jolla Group rocks. According to the G.eologic Hazards· Element of the Carlsbad General Plan, in areas where overlying solIs and vegetation may be removed and La Jolla rocks are exposed to high intensity rainfall, a badlands topography could develop. The se rocks are also sub- ject to accelerated erosion when they are used as fill materiaL Other features of concern which will require special consideration during the design and construction phases are: expansive soils, poorly compacted fill, and cu~ and fill slope inclinations. Although the pre senpe . of expansive soils is probably limited to the upper soil mantle, some selective grading during construction will be required to assure that these soils are not placed as fill or exposed by excavation at finish~d grade surfaces. It is likely that existing fills on the City-owned parcel of land will have to be removed because of their poorly compacted condition. The bedding characteristics and other features of the rock m9terials underlying the site will dictate allowable cut slope inclinations. Based on an inspection of existing cut and fill. slopes in the vicinity of the site , an inclination of 1 1/2 to 1 (horizontal to vertical) may be adequate for both cut and fill slopes. Depending upon localized conditions, flatter slopes may be required in some areas. Seismicity The Inglewood-Rose Canyon Fault Zone, located five miles offshore from the City of Carlsbad I is the only active or potentially active fault 25 I I I, I I I 'I I I I I I I I I I I I I within a radius qf 25 miles of the project s1te. The e'arthquake of 18(2, which destroyed San Juan Capistrano, is believed to have had lts epicenter' on this fault. The Long Beach earthquake of 1933 was also'caused by', movement on this fault. Any earthquake with -its epicenter on the Ihgle- wood-Rose Canyon Fault could pose a threat to the project site. In contrast, the other four major fault zones within a radius of HID miles of the site (Elsinore, San Jacinto, Agua Caliente, and San Andre'as faults) would not pose a serious threat to the proposed development since the effect of even a high magnitude earthquake would be greatly attenuated by the time it reached the subject property. Approximately 8.5 percent of the properly-designed structures within the Carlsbad City Limits probably would not sustain damage from the effects of an earthquake along these " fault zones. Structures in areas underlain by soft saturated soils could I however, be subject to damage from the following secondary effects: (1) Liquefaction can occur in certain types of saturated sol1s. Shaking during an earthquake can cause the se soils to lose all cohe,sive strength, to become "quick" and unable to bear the we ight of overlying soil!;! and structure s • (2) Lateral spreading can occur when loose so11s move over low':'cm'gle ' slopes into open space areas during an earthquake. (3) Landslides and falls of loose rock can result from ground shaking during an earthquake. (4) Structurol_damage can occur when earthquake vibrations are trans- mitted from the ground into the structures. 26 ,I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I :1 I I (5) Lurch cracking can result from ground motion during an earthquake,. Sand boils and mud cracks often accompany lurch craking asqround,water move s to the surface. According to the Geologic Hazards Element of the Carlsbad Genercil Plan, the La Jolla rocks which under'lay the site exhibit characteristic's which would subject structures built over them to minor vibrati<;mal damqge. Since no structures are to be built over deep alluvium, and flince all of the previously discussed geotechnical hazards reiating to La Jolla Group rock~ are amenable to engineering solutions, the impact of seismic activity on the project site is considered negligible. Hydrology and Water Quality The construction of buildings, driveways, and streets over the Quail Ridge project site will result in an increase in surface runoff. With urban":,, ization of the site, the discharge curve will change from a gradual inorease and relatively sustained high flow rates to a discharge characterized by peak runoff during and immediately after rainfall, followed by a more rapid decrease in flow. Open space areas will retain their pervious clas~ifications. Runoff will change from overland sheet flow arid flow in natural channels, to flow in streets, gutters, and storm drains. Although the construction of streets in the central portion of the site will divert small amounts' of flow from the north to the south, the overall drainage pattern of the property will not be significantly altered. Runoff will continue to be discharged into the major natural channels which drain the site. 27 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Residential development of the subject property will tend to reduce the quality of water which is carried through storm drains to· existing stre.ams. First, the influx of waste materials in runoff (hydrocQrbons, rubber, fertilizers 1 etc.) tends to increase the dissolved-solids content and qecrease the dis..,. solved-oxygen content. Second, as runoff peaks increase as a result of the increased area of imperviousness and decreased lag time, le.$.s water is available for groundwater recharge. Due to a ,general lack of data regarding quantities of dissolved materials contained in urban runoff, the effects of the proposed project on downstream water quality cannot be accurately evaluated. Visual Aesthetics The general appearance of the project site in its present form is one of grass-covered hills dissected by dirt roads and minor gullies. During most of the year, the grass and shrub covering is either dormant or·-dead, giving the area a brownish coloring. With the advent of new growth in the spring, there is a brief period when the hills turn to green. The visual character of the site will be altered with the construction of re sidential units and the installation of introduced landscaping. As to whether the proposed project is aesthetically objectionable or not, is a subjective value judgement of the specific observer. Some residents of the adjacent Tiburon development may prefer an open landscape rather than the proposed residential development. Tl1ese people then may regard the project as having a negative visual impact. Since' portions of the site already exist in a disturbed condition, other individuals 28 I I. I I I, I I I I I I I I I I I I I I may regard development of the subject property asa' Positive visual impact. To many people, well-designed housing and landscaping offer much more visual appeal than a disturbed landscape. Traffic Circulation The Quail Ridge project site is most closely associated with El CQmfno Real, shown on the Carlsbad General Plan as a prime major arterial. ' El Camino Heal is designated on the Scenic Highways Element of the Carlsbad General Plan (RM-5) as a Historic Corridor. At present, the only paved road on the project site enters from the west and is used for access to the City-owned pistol range. If the project is implemented as proposed, the circulation pattern is anticipated to be dominated by the street layout detailed on the qttached plot plan. Prime access to the site will be, from the propo'sed Elm Avenue extension. Elm Avenue is an 84-foot wids street which intersects with El Camino Real one-half mile west of the project site. Asystsm of 4'4-foot 50-foot and 60-foot wide single-loaded streets and cu'l-de-sacswiU provide access to interior lots. Based on an average of eight trips per unit per day, the Quail Ridge development will generate 1B72 motor vehicle trips on a daily basi-s. This traffic will enter Elm Avenue ano. disperse to other surrounding areas, adding incrementally to automobile traffic on El 'Camino Real. According to the Carlsbad Traffic Engineering Department, approximately 7,000 vehicle trips per day are presently generated south of Marron Road on 29 I I I I I I, I I I I' I' I I I I I I I I El Camino Real. This figure does not include traffic generated by the Tiburon development, estimated at 1,500 trips per day. Based on a total of 8,500 trips per day, the 1872 trips. to be generated by the Quail Ridge development will result in a 22 percent increase in traffic on El Camino Real. This increase is not considered significant in light of the 20 ,000 to 47, 000 vehicle capacity 'of EI Camino Real iridicateci on the Circulation Element of the San'Diego County General Plan. Air Quality The proposed project will only moderately influence fhe· quality of air within the San Diego Basin. In particular, air quality will be ·affected by (1) an increase in motor vehicle traffic, (2) the use of electrical energy, and (3) short-term activities assC?ciated with construotion. With an increase of 1872 two-way trips per day, motor vehiCl~exhaus1; emissions represent the primary source of air pollution generated by the proposed project. Emissions from these vehicles will not. appreciabl¥ alter the air quality of the 107 acre site. However, if Elm Avenue become:s a major connector 'between El·Camino Real and the .extension to College Boule- vard, a significant increase in emissions can be e}{pec;:ted. Air quality will also be affected by stationary sources of pollutiOn used in the proposed housing units. Since electrical power used by the project ,'. , will probably be .generated by fossil fuel plants, an increase in energy demand· will not produce emissions at the site, but rather 'at the San Diego Gas and, Electric power plant. 30 -.--~--~~~~~~~~~~-- Pollutant Carbon Monoxide Hydro-.

This increase is considered insignificant. The primary impact the proposed project will have· on 1ooaUz,ed air quality is the introduction of dust during the construction phase. of cievelop- ment. The major contributors of dust will be grading and eartnmbV'ing opera- tions which result in the movement of construction vehicles over building sites. This source of air pollution will be of a temporary nature, lasting only through the construction phase of development. Acoustical Quality In its existing state, the project 'site is composed primarily of undeveloped land. Other than noise emanating from the City-oWned pht61 range, there are no major sources of noise present in the vicinity of the Quail Ridge site. The only significant source of noise associated with development of the proposed project is noise generated by future traffic movement on Elm Avenue. According to guidelines established by the U. S. Department of Hou$ing-and , Urban Development, an estimated traffic vo1t).me of 1872 vehicles per day, in combination with a 25 mile per hour speed limit i would place the enUre; " development within the Clearly Acceptable Zone. This zone is. described as' the area in which noise levels do not exceed 45 deqibels more than 30 minut.es in a 24 hour period. .32 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I ·1 t During the construction phase of development, noise emanating from construction vehicles and equipment will occur. Although construction noises could approximqte an intensity of 80 decibels, they will occur only during daylight hours and only for the duration of the project. Public Utllitie s Development of the Quail Ridge project site will create an increased demand for public utilities. Based on an anticipated population of 819 resi- dents and a per capita consumption of 170 galloI'l:s per day, 139,.230 gallons of water will be required by the proposed project on a daily basis. Water will be supplied by the Carlsbad Municipal Water District "from an existing 10-inch main located southeast of the site. The proposed ptp- ject may require the installation of a 20-inch main along the eastern boundary of the property. According to the California Regional Quality Control Board, 80 gallons of sewage effluent are generated per person per day. AS$umlng theqbove rate of discharge, 65,520 gallons of effluent per day wiU be generated by. the Quail Ridge development. The proposed project will connect into the existing 21-inch trunk llne located north of the site. This may be accomplished by connecting into the existing 8-inch main in Marron Road. At present, the trunk line serve's the cities of Oceanside, Vista, and Carlsbad. According to San Diego Gas and Electric Company, 5738 kilowatt hours of electricity are consumed by the average San Diego residence. Using 33 I I I I· I I I t I , I I I I I I I I I this rate of consumption, the proposed project will require 3,674 kilowatt hours .of electricity per day. The average San Diego County home also consumes 86', 000 cubic feet of gas per year. Assuming the above rate of consumption, the Quail Ridge development will require 55,130 cubic feet of gas per day. Gas and electricity. are presently available west of the site in Elm Avenue. Community Services Fire Protection -Fire protection service for the Quail Ridge development. will be provided by the City of Carlsbad Fire Department, located at 1275 Elm Avenue. At pre sent, there are 27 employee s on the. staff! Fire fighters work on a 24 hours on and 24 hours off basis, with 6 men on duty at all times. Five men are available on recall in case of an emergency. Although additional residential development will probably place an added burden on fire-fi'ghting facilities in the area, the Carlsbad Fire Department has planned its growth accordingly. There are presently plans for the construction of a new station to be located at the intersection of EI Camino Real and Chestnut Avenue. Eight men will be added to the staff when this station is operational. Police Service -Police ,service is provided by the City of Carlsbad Police Department, located at 1200 Elm Avenue. At present, there are / . 45 employees on the staff. With a desired ratio of two policemen for each 1000 population, the Quail Ridge development would require the llidng of one or two new employees at th.e Carlsbad Police Department. 34 I I 'I I I, I I' I I 'I I I I I I I I I I Hospital Service -The Tri-City Hospital, located at 4002 Vista Way in Oceanside, will serve the residents of the proposed project. At pre- sent, there are only 171 beds, but a new building designed t6 meet aqdi- , -tional growth in the area is under construction. At such time as this building is completed (around 1975), the hospital will be enlarged to a total of approximately 340 beds. Library Service -The Carlsbad Public Library is located at 1250 ElmAvenue. This library encompasses an area of 16,000 square feet and contains 80,000 books and records. In addition, films, records, and reproductions of art works are available on loan. No branch libraries hav~ as yet been con- structed, but it is antiCipated that as the City population continues to increase, additional library sites will be considered. Schools -The Quail Ridge project site is located within the Carlsbad Unified School District. According to School District estimates, the school- age population breakdown of the development will be as follows: Unit Price Price Range Grade Level 'Students K-6 (Elementary) 88 Single-family Upper 7-8 (Junior High) 51 (3 and 4 bedroom) 9-12 (Hiqh -School) 90 TOTAL 229 At pre sent, students from the area attend Buena Vista Elem(3ntary School (grades K-6) , Valley Junior High School (grades 7-8), and Carlsbad High School (grade s 9-12). Each of the se schools is pre sently operating at capacity. 35 I I 'I I 'I t I I' I I I I I I I 'I I I I Economics The cost of community services will increase with the developmept of Quail Ridge. According to Mr. Lance of the Carlsbad Unified School District, annual school operating costs alone are $1,241 per sfudent. Seventy-one percent of supporting school teventies, or $201,774.19 'per year, are derived from local sources. Based on fiscal year 1972-73 per capita expenditures, the total ,cost, of providing community services to the Quail Ridge development will be as follows: Service Schools Per Capita Cost Annua'l Expenditure s $2'0 I, 774.19 General Government Public Safety Streets and Highways Librarie s and Recreation Sanitation TOTAL $38.87 $92.41 ' $ 4.42 $21.49 $16.33 $ 31,,834.53 $ 75,683.79 $ 3,619.98 $ 17,000.31 S 13,374.27 $343,887.07 If the project is implemented as proposed, the mark~t value of the development would be $12,870,000. This figure is based on 234 units valued at $55,000 each. If the project is assessed at 25 percent of market value I with a tax rate of 11 .753 per $100 assessed valuation, the project will generate $378,152.78 in property tax revenues per year" or $34,265.71 in excess of expenditures.

As a result, few vegetative communities exist which provide shelter and food for large or diverse animal populations. 'The few vegetated areas present are so small that they supply only marginal living conditions for the resident vertebrates. Development of the property will remove much of the vegetation and lead to displacement of the -relatively few resident animals. The local impact as a result of such emmigration should be sllght, with the gte,atest effect being on the raptors and grassland birds. By removing sorneof their food resources, these birds will be forced to forage in suitable areas near- by. Due to their small numbers, the increased,competition in local habitats 37 I I, I~ I I, I I I I I I I I I I I I I: I should be minimal, thereby causing little adverse effect. Development of this property, which is co~sidered of minor ecological importance, will result in little regional impact. Archaeology It appears from the existing development plan .that Site 1 will be de ... stroyed during construction. Site 2 will not be directly impi'lcted becaus~ it is well outside the area of proposed residential construction. It is I . possible, however, that Site 2 will be indirectly impacted owing to event1,lal· increased human activities in the area or future development •. Based on results of the field survey, Site 1 is thou9ht to be a Luisemo special resources camp, possibly a milling station ·with trac'e's of Lq Jollan ... Whether the site is Luiseno, or La JoUan, or contains elements of both, remains uncertain given the information recovered io date. Coastal camps of both cultural groups usually contain either midden, or larc.;re quandtie.s of shell material, or both. The fact that this camP site contains neither., cannot be explained with the information at hand. Neither can the dis- crepancy in the data received from San Diego State University and the San Diego Museum of Man. Further work on the· site Would probably re- suIt in a resolution of the discrepancy,. and would allow evaluation of artifacts from the cultural group(s) determined to have occupied this camP site. Based on the characteristics of the site. and the artifacts identified during the field survey I Site 2 is thought to be an old I two-cultural 38 I I I I I t I I I I I ,I I' I, I t " I " component site (La JoHan and San Dieguito)., The shell contained in this site is decomposed and lacks luster. This condition suggests that it may be an old La Jollan site (possiblyLa ToHan II). The heavily patlnated San Dieguito II chopper is indicative of previous occupation by individuals from the much older San Dieguito II culture. Additional study of this site would provide a greater understanding of the La JoHan elements -possibly a relatively old aspect of this culture -and theJrrelationship to any San Dieguito elements that would be found. 39 I Ie -E. I I I '1-, - I I I I I I I I I , I, 'I 'I ANY ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS WHICH CANNOT BE AVOIDED SHOULD THE PROPOSAL BE IMPLEMENTED The unavoidable adverse effects which will result from the develop-. ment of Ouail Ridge will be: 1. A decrease in the amount of open space in the City of Carlsbad by approximately 77 acres. 2. An alteration in natural landforms through the moving of 900 ,000 cubic yards of earth materials. 3. A 22 percent increase in traffic on El Camino Real. 4. AD. 023 percent increase in exhaust emissions asso clated with the increase in traffic. 5. A reduction in native flora and wildlife habitat by approximately 77 acres. 6. An increase in soil erosion associated with the clearing of veg~- tative cover. 7. An increased demand for public utilities and community services. 8. An inqrease in dust and noise during the construction phase <;>f development. 9. Disruption of archaeological resources. 40 I I I I a: :1 I' I I I I I I I '\ 1 I I', 'I' C. MITIGATION MEASURES PROPOSED TO MINIMIZE THE IMPACT 1 • Landform Alteration -Grading operations will be confined exclu- sively to building pads and access roads, and coverage for slope's in oxcess of 15 percent will be limited to 23 percent of the total area; These measures will considerably reduce the amount of reqUired gradin9. Soils and geologic investigations will be taken into account in design and grading. 2. Traffic and Emissions -Since the proposed project site is located only one-quarter mile east of Plaza Camino Real, the convenience factor alone represents a Significant means of minimizing t.raffic. The short length of shopping-related trips originating from the Quail Ridge development will in effect result in fewer miles traveled I fewer exhaust emissiQn$ I and less fuel consumption. 3. Open Space and Vegetation -The loss of approximately 77 acres of open land will be partially minimized through the retentipn of 30± acres of dedicated open space. The se areas will provide 'corridors for wildlife passage through the property. The -remaining portions of the .site not covered by buildings, driveways I or roads will be landscaped. Native vegetation will be selected wherever feasible. 4. Erosion -The effects of so11 erosion assoC;:iated wtth grading and the clearing of vegetative cover will be minimized by land.scaping and installa- tion of ground cover. Landscaped expanse.s prevent erosion by providing areas for percolation of rainwater •. Drainage facilities will be designed in such a manner as to prevent erosion of cut and fill surfaces I and all grad$d slopes will be planted with erosion resistant vegetation. 41 I t I I I, I I I I: I, '1 I I I, I I I, I I' 5. Services -The cost of public utilities and community services will be offset by the fee s and additional taxe s to be derived from the pto- ject. . A portion of the cost of school facilities wili be prbvi<;ied by the developer in the form of school fees ($393 per unit)' paid directly to the Carlsbad Unified School District. Utilities will be self-supporting from revenues collected or will be provided for by the increase in taxes. 6. Dust and Noise -Mitigating measures proposed to mihimizedust include: watering of excavation materials, installation of s·ptinkle·rs, and curtailment of grading and earthmoving operations during a<;iverse" weather conditions. Construction noises will be minimized by requiring mqfilers on all equipment and by conforming to existing noise ordinance s . Noise generated by construction equipment will occur only during normal day- light working hours. 7. Archaeology -Because Site 1 is recorded with .the San Diego Museum of Man and San Diego State University, a"nd will be destroyed during construction of the proposed re sidential development, it is recom- , " mended that a surface collection of the artifacts be undertaken in order to preserve that data which is readily recoverable .. This a9tion would result in a physical record to' support existing literature reference s .. No mitigating measures'would be requited relative to' SHe 2, unless it were determined that the site would be adversely impacted by construction." 42 I I I- I" , ' I I I I I I ,I I I I I I' II I I D. ALTERNATIVES TO THE PROPOSED ACTION 1. Lower Density -The first alternative to residentt.al development at 2.19 dwelling units per acre would be to develop at a lower,density. While' this alternative may result in less grading, it could also result in a high per unit cost for individual homes. Because of higher cost, the ultimate selling price of each unit would be priced out of the markef for which -it was intended. 2. Higher Density -Development of the Quail Ridge property for high density housing would create environmental impacts of a much greater mag- nitude and intensity then would development at the proposed density of 2.19 units per acre. Little open space would remain, more grading '1/'1:) uld be required I more traffic would result I a greater demand oil utilities and com- munity service s would re sult, and air pollUtion would increase. ' 3. Commercial or Industrial -According to the Carlsbad General Plan and the San Diego County General Plan for 1990, the project site is de signated for low density residential development. Commercial or industrial develop- ment would I therefore I be inconsistent l'and uses ~'resulting in impacts to circulation and air quality far in excess to that of the proposed project. 4. Agriculture -Another alternative is utilization of the site for agri- culture. Plant requirements and the physical elements of climate I soil, surface configuration, and water availability are important ~spects of crop suitability. At the Quail Ridge site I cHmate and water availability are adequate, but soil conditions present severe limiting factors. Specific 43 I I, I I I I I I I I 'I I I' I I' I I I I \ physical restraints fDr agriculture (in areas .other than the 8± acre alluvial valley) include: generally pDDr sDil drainage I sDil infertility, c;md shqllDW SDil depth. 5. Selling Land in Parcels -Selling the 107 qcre site'to indtvidtral develDpers or speculators is a fifth alternative to the proposed project. AlthDUgh such a method could po'ssibly result in well-qestgned indtv!duai subdivisions, coordinatiDn between develDpers would prebably be lest. This cenditien ceuld only be mitigated by preparing a master plan fer the entire prDperty. 6. Open Space -The sixth aHernative te the prepDsed actidn wDuld be tD retain the site as .open space Dr develep it as a cemmunity park. This land is pre sently under private Dwne,rship and wDuld, therefore, req.uire purcha se fer public .ownership. While mD st land WD uld be de sirable either as .open space or as a park, ecenemics dictate-that nDt all land can be set aside fer this purpese. This land use w.ould .only be possible if a public entity were willing te pay the market price .of the land. 7. Ne Project -The seventh alternative which is always available is te leave the preperty under private .ownership in its present cenditiDn. None .of the environmental impacts previeusly discussed wDuld .occur ifthi~ alter- native were' selected; hDwever, in its present cenditiDn, the prDperty is unable to yield sufficient return te justify the level .of taxes assessed against it. Alse, the "ne prDject" alternative weuld mean that develDpmental pressures would merely be increased in SDme .other area if new units .on this site were not made available. 44 I I, I I I I ~I I I I I " I I ,I I I. I I E. THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LOCAL SHORT-TERM USES OP' MAN'S ENVIRONMENT AND THE MAINTENANC.E AND ENHANCEMENT OF LONG-TERM ENVIRONMENTAl PRODUCTIVITY The short-term use of the environment will· involve the conversion of 10.7 acres of vacant land into a residential community. During this trans-. [ormation period I landforms will be altered I natural vegetation will be removed I wildlife species will be displaced, dust and noise Will incteas.e, natural resources will be consumed, and short-tertnemployment opportunities in the construction industry will be created. Long-term effects of the Quail Ridge development include loss of open land, increased traffic, increased exhaust emissions, reduced percolation of rainwater I and a greater demand for public utUitiE;ls an.q community ser- vices. Beneficial long-term effects include quality housing for 234 City of Carlsbad families, an increased tax base I permanent preservation.. of approximately 30 acres of open space I and elimination of the hazardous conditions which result from the close proximity of the City-owned pist91 range to nearby residential development. 45 I I F .• I I . ' I I I ,I I I I I I I ·1· I· I I I ANY IRREVERSIBLE ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES WHICH WOULD BE INVOLVED IN THE PROPOSED ACTION SHOULD IT BE IMPLEME~tTED- Construction of the proposed Quail Ridge development will precl~de use of the site for any other form of development. Space occupied by I buildings and streets will be permanently committed to a residential land use. Development of the proposed project will necessitate the moving of approximately 900,000 cubic yards of excavation materials. This earth- moving activity will irreversibly alter the existing landform configuration. Removal of native vegetation will eliminate wildlife. habitat 'areal?, resulting in the permanent displacement of those animals species intolerant of human disturbances. The quality of air will be reduced by the production of airborne pollutants resulting from an increased number of automobiles in the area. This change in air quality will be irreversible until such time as a substitute for the internal combustion engine is developed. Raw materials I power I capital, and labor will be irreversibly committed during the construction phase of development. Subsequent to completion of the project, natural gas I water I electricity I' and gasoline will be committed . on a more long-term basis. 46 I, I G. I I I 'I 'I I: I I I I' 'I I I I I I I THE GROWTH-INDUCING IMPACT OF THE PROPOSED ACTIVITY UPON THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND/OR COMMUNITY Growth inducoments are normally measured in terms of population growth I increased services, additional jobs, or added incent~v~ to develop surrounding property. In these terms, the development of Quail Ridge will induce growth. The proposed development will provide a total of 234 dwelling units. The projected increase in population as a result of this development will be 819 inhabitants. Since this increase represents about 4.7 percent of the total population for the City of Carlsbad, it is considered a signi- ficant proportion. This influx in population will result in increased requite- ments for public utilitie s and community service s . Since the Quail Ridge project site borders on developed property to the north and west, future land development could only occur south and east of the site. The proximity of this agricultural land to the subject property could, therefore, encourage speculation. Each time a toad is' improved or utilities are extended, urban growth accelerates. In some instances, this effect has brought property taxes to the point where they exceed income from agriculture. 47 I ,I H. I I I I. I I I I 'I I' I I ,. I I I I THE BOUNDARIES OF THE AREA WHICH MAY BE SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECTED BY THE PROPOSED ACTIVITY The areas which may be affected by the proposed Quail Ridge develop- ment will vary with the environmental issue being considered. Generally, the e [fects of vegetation and wildlife disruption I landform alteration I and temporary increase s in dust and noise during construction will berestticted to the area located within the boundaries of the project site. The effects of increased traffic will probably be limited to E1 Camino Heal and the immediate area surrounding the site. Beyond this area I traffic will be sufficiently dispersed so as to minimize many of its effects. Any loss in visual aesthetics will be restricted to the area within view of the project site I notably the Tiburon development. The effects of increased runoff and decreased water quality will generally be limited to the surrounding area, but may range as far as Buena Vista Lagoon, which is located approximately one mile west of the project site. The effects of an increase in population, including an increased de- mand for public utilities, administrative services I community services, and school facilities will be limited primarily to the Ctty of Carlsbad and the Carl sbad Unified School District. 48 I I' I I, I I 'I I I I 'I I I I I I, C"f"D'-('J' "r'-u"r"-"{ I " \ I' /1-.,,' 1,/ U,·,I-1'/1 \ ,JI-I" ~I \" _ U VI \.....J_ .. .• i I.

Hutchins Director of Engineering 114 ! 453-5605 RE: PRELIMINARY GEOTECHNICAL RECONNAISSANCE 158-ACRE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA Gentlemen: In accordance with your request, we have performed a preliminary geotechnical recon- naissance for your proposed 158-acre residential development to be located on the Moore and Beckstrand properties southeast of the intersection of State Highway 78 and EI'Camino Real in Carlsbad, California. The purpose of our reconnaissance was to make a prelimi- nary evaluation of the geotechnical features of the site for use in the early pJanning stages of the project. It is our understanding that the. site will be deve loped in one and two-story single-family residences. Due to the hilly terrain, substantial site grading will be required with cut and fill slopes probably approaching 50 feet in height. .SCOPE The scope of work performed in this study included a site reconnaissance and ct'reviewof available published and unpublished information regarding the geotechnical condiHons in the general vicinity of the site, ar:'d the preparation of this letter report. Our work also included an evaluation of a small parcel within the central portion of the ·site which, we understand, is presently owned by the City of Carlsbad. PAL 0 AI TO / OAKLAND / MON I EllEY I SAN DIEGO 51 I I ,I I I I I I I I' I I I I I I I I I, - Leadership Housing Systems, Inc. November 6, 1973 -S 108-1, S509 . Page 2 SITE CONDITIONS A. Geology -- The site is thought to ,be underlain by sandstone, conglomerate, cmd siltstone rocks of Eocene age. Based on the general topography of the area and our inspection of the materials exposed in existing cut-slopes in the vicinity of the site, the thickness of soil overburden in the higher portions of the property is probably on the o'rder of 2 to 5 feet. In valley bottoms bedrock is probably covered by substantiaUy greater thicknesses of alluvial soil. B~ Surface Existing ground surface elevations across the site vary between 6 low of about Elev,e +60' in lowest va lIey areas up to Elev. +360' near the top of the highest hill' at the southeast corner of the ,site. The property is presently vacant and surface vegetation consists of a light to heavy growth of grass and weeds. The surface soils across much of the site are characterized by extensive shrinkage cracks. In addit.ion, leaning fence posts on hillsides may be evidence that the surface soils in at least some areas are undergoing slow, downhill creep movement. \ With regard to the small, city-owned property in the central portion of the site, mu~h of the parcel is covered with fill, debris and rubble. A shooting range at the north endof the city property has been constructed over a filled ravine. At its deepest point the fi II appears to be about 30 feet thick. There is surficial evidence that the fi /I has undergone some settlement and is probably in a poorly compacted condition. c. Subsurface Based on our inspection of existing cut-slopes in the general vicinity of the site' and. a review of available information provided by the City of Carlsbad, we anticipate that the soi I and rock conditions underlying most of the,site consist of a thin mantle (2 fo 5 feet) of dark colored, potentially expansive surface soil overlying white, fine grainee!, fractured sandstone. The sandstone materials may be interbedded with layers of e,xpan- sive clayey soil. Compressible alluvial soils consisting of clays, silts ane! sands may be present in valley bottoms. Groundwater levels at the site wi II be governed prim<?rily by local rainfall conditions. In the lower valley areas, groundwater may exist near the surface during prolong'ed, periods of rainfall. 52 I I: I -I I I I 'I I I I I I I I I I I I ---Leadership Housing Systems, Inc. November 6, 1973 -S 108-1, S509 Page 3 D. Sd::.micity Based on publi:>hed information, no active or inactive faults are ~nown to'passthrougb the site. However, the property is located approximately 22 miles southwest of the Elsinore Fault and 46 miles southwest of the San Jacinto Fault both of which are known: to be seismically active. CONCLUSIONS On the basis of our preliminary geotechnical reconnaissance, it is our opinion that there are no geotechnical conditions at t,he site that would be prohibitive with respect to the proposed residential development. It is essential, however I that a detailed soil and g.eological investigation be conducted in order to adequately evaluate the siteoondition,s and' to develop detailed site grading and foundation recommendations. Ourproposa'i for providing these services is being forwarded to you under separate cover. Some of the primary features of concern at the site which will require special. considera- tion during the design and construction phases of the project are presented beloW. 1. Expansive Soils -Although the presence of expansive soi'ls is probably' I ir(lited primarily to the upper soil mantle, some selective grading during construction will be required to assure that expansive soi.ls are not placed as fill nor exposed by excavation at finished graded surfaces. 2. Slopes -The bedding characteristics and other features of the rock materials underlying the site will dictate allowable cut-slope, inclina- tions. Based on our inspection of existing cut and fill slopes in the vicinity of the site, it is our opinion that in most areas, an inclination of 1-1/2 to 1 (horizontal to vertical) may be adequate for both cut and fill slopes. Depending upon localized conditions, flatter slopes may be required in some areas. The sandstone underlying the site is not expected to be difficult to excavate utilizing ordinary heavy earthmoving equipment. 3. Existing Fills -If the city-owned parcel is included in the development, it is likely that the existing fill on this property will have to be removed during the site gradi'ng work. 4. 5. Erosion Control -Due to the erodible nature of the sandstone underlying, the site, measures to protect exposed Cl.!t and fill slopes including surface drainage provisions and suitable ground cover will be necessary. Subsurface Drainage -Subsurfaoe drainage provisi,ons will be necessary at the interface between natural ground and fi lis where 9roundw~ter seepages are encountered or an ticipated. 53 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I ---Leaqership Housing Systems, Inc. November 6, 1973 -S 108-1, S509 Page 4 6. Compressible Soils -The aI/uvial soils in valley bottoms may hf:l relatively soft and compressible and therefore unsuitable for the support of fills. This condition would require removal and recompaction of the soft materials prior to placing fill. 7. Slope Instabilify -Although we observed no signs of major slope.instability, some minor sl ides have been reported in the vicinity of the site. Any minor slides and/or creeping surface soils would have to be stabilized during the site grading work.

An inspection was mode by a representative of our organization on June 6, 1974 and it is con- cluded that the soil conditions are essentially the same as presented in·our report.on the grading of this subdivision dated October 19, 1970. The soils in the upper three feet below finished grade on Lots 406 and 407 were classified as critically expansive (Type A) and the upp.er soils on Lot 408 were classified as marginally expansive (Type B). Therefore the recommendations for special design and precautions presented in the above dated report should bei-ncorporated in the plans and specifications for any proposed construction on these lots. If there are any further questions concerning the soil conditions on these lots, pi"ease cot11:act us. Respectfully submitted, BENTON ENGINEERING, INC. By£~~ R. C.

INTRODUCTION The prepesed preject is a 60-acre single-family residential and cendeminium develepment to. be lecated seuth ef.Palemar Airpert Read and east ef the San Diego. Freeway. The area is as yet almest cempletely undeveleped. Hewever, the Alta Mira adult-enly cemmunity to. the west aleng Lewder Lane is expanding eastward,' and the large .. (3200 units) Planned Cemmunity ef Casas de las Peinsettias is planned fer the area immediately seuth and west. The prepesed preject ef appreximately 400 unit~ weuld repre .. -. sent an eastward centinuatien ef this residential develep- ment, and is prepesed to. supply heusing in the needed . under-$30,000 categery. This Draft Envirenmental Impact Repert is intended to. cemply with Federal, State and lecal guidelihesand ~dLLicularly the State Guidelines ef February 5, 1973. Impacts identified in the ceurse ef ·the analysis are minimal fer the physical and bietic systems, and mest ef the human/gevernmental systems. The principal preblems to. be expected if the preject is implemented are crewding in the scheels and a cenflict with the existing General Plan as to. the lecatien ef scheels. The former is cemmen in areas experiencing rates ef grewth similar to. ·that of Carlsbad, and the plan ·which prepeses feur schoels en the site is new in precess ef revisien. These two. problems are discussed in detail in the .repert, particularly in the sectien en Alternatives. 1. 1 I 1 1 1 I 1 1 I I. 1 1 1 1 1 1 II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1. Physical Setting The site of the proposed project consists of 60 acres located approximately one-half mile north of the intersection of Poinsettia Road and Poinsettia Lane (Figure 1.). The San Diego Freeway is approximately one- quarter mile to the west, and the central City of Carlsbad is approximately three miles northwest along the freeway. A vertical aerial photograph of the site and adjacent land, enlarged from the original scale of 111 == 4000' to .111 = .1000' , is included as Figure 2, and a survey plot, to which· assessor's parcel numbers have been added, is Figure 3. Parcell is presently planted to tomatoes, and a part of Parcel 2 is planted to flowers. Most of the remainder has been plowed for future planting. 2. Objectives The objective of the project is to supply housing in the under-$30,000 bracket. Discussions (1) between the applicant and personnel of the Carlsbad Planning Department indicate that housing in this price range is needed to meet the needs of many younger couples and some less affluent retired people. The project is 4100 feet from the Pacific Ocean at its nearest point (Figure 1), and is not in conflict with Federal or State plans or objectives. The San Diego County General Plan shows the zoning of the area as estate residen- tial (E-l-A). The Carlsbad General Plan (2) shows the zon- ing as low Density residential (3-7 families/net acre). 2 I I 1 I 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 I· 1 I 1 1 1 I \.

I· I ·1, I I I I The proposed project is thus in conflict with County zoning,· but would be designed to conform with zoning as proposed by the Carlsbad General Plan. In addition to the zoning discussed above, the Carls-. bad General Plan shows two elementary, one junior high. and one high school planned along or very ·near the west,bounda.ry of the site. These four school sites are shown on the map as separated by "parks, semi-public, open space". While the present General Plan is now in process of substantialrevi~ sion, the proposed project is in conflict with it ·in regard to the location of these schools. This problem is discussed further under Alternatives. 3. Elements of the Project The project as proposed by the applicant (1) is to consist of the follo'V'ling elements :W.o W 20 acres Condominium Units at@ross:acre = 24'0 units. 40 acres Single-Family Units at 4/gross acre= 160 units. 60 acres 400 units This distribution results in an overall density of 6.67 units/gross acre. While the number of units will probably have to be reduced slightly to conform to the PC(medium) density of 3-7 families/net acre, the above figures will be used to estimate population, school-age'children, traffic, etc. , The units are expected to be priced in the ~ange of $27,000 - $40,000, with the lower' prices applying to the condominiums and the higher prices to the.single-family units. The esti- mated population of the project at full occupation i$ as follows: 240 Condominium units at 2' persons/u~it. =480 persons 160 Single-Family units at 3.2 persons/unit = 512 persons 992 persons 6· I I I I I I I The availability of utilities has been considered by ~ngineering. Their. letter states (3): "A l2-inch water main is adjacent to the south line anq a 6-Lnch main adjacent to the east line. Overhead power is available along the north line, and there is a possibility of a l2-inch high pressure gas main running through the property." "Sewer will have to be taken off-site. There are two posSi- bilities. 1. 2,000 feet of gravity line to the north I' into an existing line on the northerly I ~'I .. I I I· I I I I '1 I I slope of Encinas Creek. 2. 1,200 feet of gravity line, 400 feet of force main, and a~ll~ump st~tion]to be built westerly from the northwest cor- ner of the property into Alta Mira." Other information such as construction methods, precise phasing, elevations, perspectives, etc., as requested in the Draft Environmental Impact Report Form as adopted by Resolution No. 3017 of the City Council of the City of Carlsbad, are' not available at this phase of the planning of the project. However, the applicant (1) has stated that he contemplates a minimum of grading (discussed further under Impact of the Project), and that this will be accomplished, in part, by extending the greenbelt, planned along the western boundary of the site, eastward up two of the drainages across the site. The remaining information .such as a grading plan,: construction plans and elevations of homes, etc. would require a large financial investment. This investment should not be 7 -~-----~-'---'------- co AREA OF POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT NEAR SITE Pacesetter Homes Project Carlsbad, CAlifornia 1:24,000 Base f.rom U.S.G.S~ ~ncinitas Quadrangle' EXPLANATION Parks,semi-public,open space.

If the requested zone change is granted, any unresolved aspects of the project should be considered as conditions to be met prior to.approval at the tentative·tract stage." 4. Adjacent Land Use and Planning The property to the west of the site is now in-grading for an expansion of the Alta Mira adult-only community on Lowder Lane. To our knowledge, the property to the north and east, now agricultural, is not a part of any plan for development other than the residential zoning shown on the Carlsbad General Plan. The property to the south of the project is part of the proposed Casas de las Poinsettias Planned Community (Figure 4). Characteristics of this project (4) that are pertinent to a consideration of the subjec't project are listed below along with those of the proposed project.

Hydrologic Conditions Surface drainage onto the site is primarily from an area to the east of approximately 60 acres (Figure 1). This inflow and surface runoff for most of the site drains northward and into Canyon de las Encinas,' and then westward into the Pacific Ocean near the sewage treatment plant (Figure 1). Runoff from the southeastern corner of the" site drains southward through the unnamed canyon near Lagoon Lane and into Batiquitos Lagoon near where it is crossed by the San Diego Freeway. Groundwater at the site is essentially nil. The terrace deposits probably accumulate some perched water' as the result of crop irrigation, but the site' is hot an. area of recharge for a groundwater basin of any significance. The site is located well ~bove'major drainages and the ocean, and no significant flood or tsunami hazard is present at the site. The hazard from runoff from the up- slope area to the east is minimal.· . Assuming a most intense s~rm crndition for a site at this elevatibn and topography ~ 0.5 inches of runoff per hour, the flow across the eastern boundary of the site would be approximately 30-second feet. Approximately half of this flow or 15·second-feetwould be concentrated in the drainage near the center of the east boundary of the site •. The remainder would be expected.to ocdur primarily as sheet-flow onto and across the site with con- centration occurring primarily near the west ~oundary •. Assuming the same high rate of runoff, maximum flow out of the site to the north is estimated at about 4a second-feet, and that to the south at about 20 second-feet. 10 .

Existing so~rces from this direction are limited primarily to traffic along . the San Diego Freeway. Because of the proximity of the ocean and the limited sources of pollutants, air quality is good at the site. A slight deterioration should be ex- pected in the future as the area to the'west is developed and traffic on the San Diego Freeway increases. The following estimate of pollutant concentrations at the site (not including the project), assuming full development of the area to the west 'and average flow on the San Diego Freeway of 50,000 veh./day, is included for informational purposes: Area generated traffic: Area west of site = 232 acres (0.3625 sq.mi.) , Number of units at 8 units/acre = 1860 units Total trips at 10 trips/unit = 18,600 trips Mileage in area at 0.5 mi./trip = 9,300 miles' Freeway traffic: Length of Freeway in area = 2500 ft. = 0.473 mi. Total mileage in area at' 50,000 veh./day=23,650 mi. Total pollutants: Total mileage in area = 34,000 mi./day Peak mileage at 10% of average daily = 3,400 mi./hr. Average wind velocity = 6.6 mph (5) Air replaced 7.75 times/hr. Traffic mileage per new air volume = 439 mi. 12 I I I I I I I I ,1 I I I I I I I, I I I Pollutant input for 439 miles (from table included in section on Impact and for gasoline vehicles only) : Ave.Concentration at Peak Traffic Flow Pollutant In Area (lbs) Per Square Mile (lbs) Particulates 0.42 1.16 Organics 10.5 29.0 Nitrogen oxides .5.6 15.4 Sulfur oxides 0.11 0.30 Carbon monoxide 59.7 164.7 Conditions in the near,1 downwind area are also generally good because of the sparcehabitation of the area east of the project. However, if the overall airshedis considered, the Carlsbad-Oceanside area must be considered a cdntributin~ factor to the poor air quality that exi'sts in the Vista-r ?' Escondido area onl hot summer days with low inversions .( The above is for the prevailing .;ind most problematic air flow condition. Santa Ana winds (east to nOJ;'theast, downslope, adiabatically warmed) occasionally blow during late fall, winter and spring months. Velocities .may be very strong, particularly a few hundred feet off the ground, and the air shed is normally completely "flushed"by such winds. The site is not unduly exposed to storms, e·ither Santa Ana winds or ocean waves, and there are nopart'icularly' , sensitive areas (e.g. public facilities or sensitive,v,ege-. tat ion and wildlife areas) in the' near downwi~d that woulq be expected to be adversely affected by emissions from a . residential .development at the site. 13 I I I I I I I I I I I I' I I· I I I I I ". 3. Geologic and Pedologic (Soils) Conditions The site is located on a relatively flat, marine terrace that slopes generally to the southwest at approx- imately 7% (Figure 1). This overall slope is interrupted near the west boundary of the site by a low ridge; and the slope is locally to the east in this area. The area is underlain by marine terrace deposits (6) composed prin- ciply of medium to coarse grained sandstone with lesser amounts of fine sandstone and sandy siltstone. Bedding is near-flat, ,poorly developed, and generally lacking in significant amounts of clay. Soils, developed: on these materials are sandy loams that drain well and also exhibit good construction characteristics.' There are no known active faults in the area (7), and no trends of earthquake epi- centers (8) that would suggest a burried, active fault. Other geologic hazards such as landslides, subsidence, or liquifaction during an earthquake'are considered ex- tremely unlikely. The erosion potential of the site in,its"present use is slight. Slopes are relatively low, but ther~ is a po- tential for moderate erosion if the area were "hit" by extremely heavy rains or very strong, dry winds during a time when the site has been. plowed but the crop had not become established. A soils engineering and geologic investigation has· not been conducted at this stage of planning, but the sandstone present at the site should be expected to have high bearing values, good permeability, and otherwise good' construction characteristics. The existing use of the site for cultivating tomatoes and flowers indicates a relatively high value for agricultural purposes. 14 I I I I I I I I I -I I I I· I I I I I I • 4. Biotic Conditions The natural wildlife and vegetation of the site are extremely limited by the prior committment of most of it to agriculture. A small area (about one-half acre) in the extreme .northeast corner o'f the site is a part ot the steeper topography to the north~ast (Figure I), and has lnot been included as a part of the cUltivated area. A natural flora of black sage, field mustard, mananzanita, toyon (California holly), goldenbush, amblyopappus, yerba.santa, and red monkeyflower is well developed in this area; possi- bly because of the added groundwater from irrigation of the adjacent cropland. Except for this limited area, the cover necessary for a significant wildlife population is absent.· No rare, en- dangered or otherwise unique species are known to inhabit the site, and conditions are poor to non-existent as a. habitat for species of sport, spectator, commercial or educational value. The vegetation to the northeast and east (upwind for Santa Ana condition) ·is sparce, and the. potential for brush-forest fire is not abnormally high. 5. Sonic Conditions The area that would' generally be.within the audible range of project construction is limited to the rid~e ·to the west and the nearer parts of the west slope,' and the' gentle slopes to the north, east and south-(Figure 1). The canyon to the north will be protectedfrom·the higher' noise levels of construction by steep topography and the vegetation. 15 I I I I I I I I I· I I· I I I I I I I I , • This area is now unoccupied except for the structures near the southeast corner of the site. However, depending on the. relative timing of construction, the eastward expansion and occupation of Alta Mira to the top.of the ridge will probably have occurred; and a part of the Casas de las Poinsettias to the south may have been oc·cupied.· Other than this potential future habitation, there are no existing sensitive human uses (schools, churches, hospitals, etc.), wildlife, domestic stock, or otherwise ~ensitive areas now within the audible range of the site .. However, an elementary school site is included as a part of the adjacent Casas de las Poinsettias development,' and the location of this site is now proposed as immediately south of the project area. 6. Visual Conditions The areas from which the site is visible, and which are visible from the site in the foreground and middle distances., are primarily the low ridge to the west and its extension to the south, and the gentle slope to the east, . (Figure 1). The slope t~ the east is not . .i.nhabited nor is development planned, but the ridge to the west and sou'th is either under donstruction or planned for residential development. The topography to the northwest and soutpeast "falls offlt gradually into canyons, so the site is not a significant part of the view from or of these areas. Neither is the site visible from the Freeway, as the low ridge blocks this view. No features of architectural-cultural significance or public recreation or parklands are involved in the views of or from the site. No significant .wildlife habitats or areas used by domestic stock are close enough to he' visually affected by views of the project. 16 I I I I I I I- I I I I I I I I I I' I , • Existing visual qualities of the site are dominated by its agricultural use. The flower crops' have a high visual quality during the blooming periods, and the toma- toes have a limited visual value because of the deep gre~n color~ These qualities have very little social significance because they can be seen only by those who a~tually vis'i t the site. 7. Socio-economic Conditions Of the various aspects of the socio-economic -setting, the project is not expected to have a significant affect on the amenity conditions, migrational trends, character- istics of the population, or any long-term effect on employ- ment opportunities. However, effects on public services, particularly schools, may be significant. At present, students would be bussed into Carlsbad to school. The District is now essentially at capacity with the hig,h school on staggered sessions (9). An elementary school site is now planned immediately south of the project as a part of the Casas de las Poinsettias project, but actual construction will require passage of a bond issue. Police protection is now lim~ted because of the, character of the area. Discussions with Captain W. D. Rossall of the Carlsbad Police Department indicate that the area is part of a large beat including Rancho La Costa ,and the coastal area south of Agua Hedionda. However, this can be expected to change as Casas de las Poinsettias is devel- oped. The existing ratio of about-1 beat officer/1000 population would justify an increase of abou':t 8 officel;s (3 shifts) at full development. 17 , 'I I I I I I I I I I .-1 I I I I 'I I I I , • / Fire protection is now also limited because of the distance to the nearest station in Carlsbad~ However, discussions with Captain G. W. Anear of the Carlsbad Fire Department indicate that a new station should be built soon at the intersection of Poinsettia Lane and the Freeway. ,'f ? Approximately $50,000 of the estimated $70,000 cosi;:, has --=.' ,~ ~, I , I been allocated and completion is expected during thefirstA/o;--~CJ half of calendar year 1974. This station would be only I" about one-half mile from the site. Planned land use in the vicinity is shown on Figure 4. The site is part of a larger area of about ~500 acres bounded on the north by Canyon de las Encinas and Palomar Airport Road, on the south by Batiquitos Lagoon, and on, the west by the San Diego Fwy.\ Parts of the City of Carlsbad bound this area on the east and the west, with the, central portion being within its sphere of influence. Tpis:area is now under pressure for development with approved and pro- posed projects beginning to move eastward from the ,area of the freeway and westward from Ranoho La'Costa into this agricultural area.' The conflict between planned ,school sites and the proposed use have been discussed under Objectives of th~ Project. Existing access to and from the area' is primarily by way of Palomar Airport Road on the north, EI Camino ,Real,' on the east, and locally to the site itself by thePoirtsettia Lane 'ramps of the San Diego Freeway. Planned future arterials and collector roads as shown on the General Plan (2) and on maps in the E.I.R. for Casas de las Poinsettias' (4) are shown on Figure 4.

IDENTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS 1. Hydrologic Impacts Natural drainage from the site now flows both ,north (est. 65%) into Canyon de las Encinas, ,and south (est.35%) into Batiquitos Lagoon. Increased runoff as a result of the project will vary from near zero for intense storms to as high as 30% for moderate storms. This runoff should 'be conveyed to the major drainages noted above by means of non-erosive devices, such as streets, ,storm drains, etc., to avoid erosion in the canyons and siltation in Canyon de las Encinas and Batiquito~ Lagoon. The resulting periodic flows of fresh water into the Canyon and the Lagoon should be considered a normal and natural part of these environments. However, problems co~ld arise not from storm drainage but from runoff from lawn watering, car washing, etc. that often carrys· significant quantities of nitrates, detergents, and oily waste from the streets. Drainage to the north into Encinas Creek should not be a significant problem, but the addition of these pollutants into the Lagoon could degrade this environment. Flows from the project could be considered insignificant in that they would enter the Lagoon near its mouth where the flushing action of tides is the greatest. However, when considered as a part of potential 'inflow from develop- able areas all around the Lagoon, the potential effect be- comes significant. Additional discussion of storm drain problems in this area is included in the E.I,.R. for ,the adjacent Casas de las Poinsettias development (4). 20 I I· I I I' I I I I ~I I I I ·1 I I I I I .

Assuming: 240 condominium units x 1.5 veh./unit = 360. vehicles 160 Residential units x 2.0 veh./unit -320 vehiqles Total = 680 vehicles Assuming emission rates for gasoline-powe~ed vehicles as summarized in the table on the next page, generation· of pollutants as a result of the project is. estimated as follows: Particulate matter 16.3 lbs./day Organics 408. lbs./day Nitrogen oxides 218. Ibs./day Sulfur oxides 4.1 lbs./day Carbon Monoxide 23"10. lbs./day The table above represents average total pollutant output for the project at full development. For purposes of comparison with the average concentrations developed in Section III-2, the following computation is included. Project Generated Traffic in Area: Area of site = 60 acres (0.09375 sq.mi.) Number of units = 400 units Total trips at 10 trips/day =·4,000 trips/day Mileage in area at 0.75 mi./trip = 3,000 miles/day The above figure of 3,000 mi./day in only 8.8% of the upwind (prevailing) mileage estimated· in Section III-2. it should be noted that the primary factqr in th.is estimate is the assumed traffic flow on the San Diego Freeway taken at only 50,000 veh./day.

Also, as the area to the east is developed, the relative project contribution de- creases while the total pollutants increase. While these emissions can be considered insignificant' in comparison to the overall generation in Carlsbad, includ- ing the San Diego Freeway traffic and the beach traffic during the more critical summer months, or even that which should be expected from the proposed Casas de las Poin- settias development to the southwest (approx. 8 times larger than the proposed Pacesetter development) ,they represent an incremental addition to the airshed'of northern San Diego County. 3. Geologic and Pedologic (Soils) Impacts While grading plans have not been developed at this· stage of planning, the applicant (1) has stated that their intent is to keep grading to an absolute minitnum. Geologic and topographic conditions are favorable, and with the flexibility of a Planned Community, minimal grading' should ,.' be feasible. Assuming that the r~quired sequence of soils and geologic investigations are conducted prior to and during construction, there should be no significant impact on the geologic or soils aspects of the environment. 4. Biotic Impacts Biologic conditons at or adjacent to the site should . not be significantly affected by the proposed project as the existing agricultural use has virtually eliminated natural vegetation and the wildlife that would be affected by the encroachment of man. 23 . I I I • • Potential effects on offsite biotic conditions are discussed under Hydrologic Impacts. 5. Sonic Impacts Noise generated during operation of the project would consist primarily of residential traffic and other noise types that are generally considered acceptable in a resi- dential area and in adjacent areas developed in a similar manner. Noise of construction may affect nearby residential areas if they are completed and occupied prior to begin- ning construction at the site. The residents of these nearby tracts should be willing to accept this short-term inconvenience which would not significantly exceed the noise required to construct their homes. A different consideration is the relative timing of the proposed project and the planned elementary school immediately to the south. Construction of the latter would be expected to lag behind construction of nearby residen- tial tracts to the south. If construction in the southern part of the site can be completed prior to occupancy of the school, an otherwise unavoidable short-term impact of construction noise at the school can be avoided. 6. Visual Impacts The part of the site planted to flowers has a certain aesthetic value during the blooming season. However, the site cannot be seen from populated areas or well-traveled roads as can the flower beds along the freeway, and their effective aesthetic value is minimal. 24 --I I I I I I,' I I I I I I I I I I I I • • 7. Socio-economic Impacts The principal potential impacts of the proposed pro- ject will be social and economic as affecting various, community services,' principally schools. The ,increased yield to support these services is estimated below. Present Fair Market Value = $380,000 Improvements: 240 Condominium Units @' $27,000/unit = $6,480,000 160 Single-Family Units @ 35,000/un~t =$5,600,000 $12,080;000 Increase in Fair Market Value = $11,700,000 Increase in Assessed Valuation= $ 2,925,000 Approximate distribution of ,the increase in' yield to the various entities using 1971-72 rates (II) would be as follows: Entity City of Carlsbad Carlsbad Unified Schools O-C Jr. College Other Education San Diego Co.General Tri City Hospital Carlsbad Municipal Water Metropolitan Water County Water Authority Total' Increase 'in 'Yi~ld/Year $ 58,890.00 146,747.25 19,012.50 3,714.75 85,965'.75 5,;1.18.75, 6,727.50 5,850.00 2,925.00 $ 334,951.50 It is emphasized that the above is increased yield, and is the actual yield only for the City of Carlsbad. 25 ' ," I I I I I I I I I I I I I. I I I • • Discussions with the Chiefs of the Carlsbad·Fire and Police Departments indicates'that available informa- tion is not adequate to evaluate·the actual cost of pro- viding services to a particular development. However, it can be assumed that with service departments the size of those of Carlsbad, an increase in population with a proportional increase in revenue should bring increased efficiency, provided no special problems such as isolated development (e.g. Rancho La Costa), unusual expected crime rates, etc. are involved. In this regard, the hew fire· station at Poinsettia and the Freeway, justified on the basis of existing conditions, will service the project area. Added development near the station will· increase its efficiency.· Policing of the project, if taken by itself, would probably not require an increase in staff, but would be' handled as a part of the beat in the southern part of the City. However, the Casas de las Poinsettias project at full development would justify, at existing officer/popu- lation ratios, an additional 8 officers to th~ police staff, and the proposed project would justify I additional. Thus, the basic committment to increased police protection. in the area is in the Casas de las Poinsettias development; the proposed project will only increase the efficiency of this protection. Water and sewage should not be a prQblem~ Water mains are available (3), and several alternatives exist as to sewer alignments. The sewage treatment plant is . now operating at approximately 58%. of capacity (capacity, 10 million gal/day; present input, 5.8 million gal/day) •. 26 I I I I I I· I I I I I I I I' I I I' • • Assuming 250 gal/day/unit (approx. existing' rate) , the proposed project would require approximately 100,000 gal/day or approximately 1% of the remaining 42% unused capacity. The water district is now operat.ing at an . average rate of less than 30% of capacity (5), so water supply is not a problem. The principle social problem is the effect of the project on schools. Student yield from the project is estimated as follows (12): Type Condominium (240) Single-Family (160) K-6 31.2 78.4 109.6 7-8 19.2 38.4 .-- 57.6 9-12 28.8 " 73.6 102.4 ~his estimate agrees well with the estimate of Mr. Fred Lance (9) of 0.6 students per unit for this type of mixed development (270 students/400 units = 0.675 students/unit). Using yields to the District developed previously, the increased yield to the District/student is $543.51, and the total yield is $561.16. . , The adversity of the impact on schools will depend on rates of growth and the timing of the 'school additions' that will be required. In areas such as this in which ra-.''' pid growth is expected, the impact will be short-liv~dand periodic. That is, the. overcrowding necessary to justify the needed additions will accumulate and be satisfied' at a . relatively rapid rate. However, as growth continues, over- crowding in the added facilities· will occur thus generating a new cycle. Impact can be minimized by good planning and close cooperation between the District, the. City and the developers in the area. However, some level of problem is 27 I I I 1 I 1 1 I· 1 I I I I: I I I I • • unavoidable under existing State regulations governing the financing of capital improvements by school districts. The conflict between the use proposed by the developer and the proposed location of four schools on the site' is discussed under Alternatives. Estimated added traffic generated by the project is as follows: Estimated number of units = 400 Trips/day/unit = 10 Added traffic = 4000 trips/day Added peak hour traffic = 400 trips/hr. A major part of this peak flow, perhaps 60.-70%, can be expected to use Poinsettia and its ramps to the Sa-n Diego Freeway. While these added loads are not signif.icant in themselves, the cumulative·effect of development.of the area shown on Figure 4 will have a significant effect on Poinsettia and the ramp system to the Freeway. This aspect of future growth should be considered as a part of the re- evaluation of planning in the area.now in progress. The existing plan is 8 years old, and many aspects 'of hous·ing demand have changed significantly in that time.' 28 I I I I I I I I ·1 ;"1 I I I·. I I. I I I I • • v. DISCUSSION OF IMPACTS 1. Adverse Environmental Effects which Cannot Be Avoided should the Proposal be Implemented The impact on schools can be considered unavoidable in the sense that under existing State regulations it is not economically :r;:>ractical to increase capacity until the problem exists. However, this is a temporary impact, and it can be reduced by close cooperation between the District, . . City and developers in the area'. A part of this cooperation. is the dedication of land for school sites discussed under Mitigation. . The incremental addition of a relatively small volume of pollutants to the air shed of northern San Diego County is also an unavoidable environmental effect that cannot be avoided if the proj ect is imp;Lemented. . The addition in itself is insignificant, but thecumula,tive eff"ect isob- viously not. Fortunately, recent E.P.A. rulings.and technological advances indicate a reversal in air pollution trends will occur. 2. Mitigation Measures Proposed to Minimize the Impact The impact on the schools could be mitigated in part by the dedication of an appropriate amount of land toward a school site or equivalent funds with which to purchase land at an alternate site. This practice has been common in the area although there is not a law that requires it. In this instance, the lIappropriate" amount of land or equi- valent funds is estimated at approximately 3.6 acres, based on 270 students and 750 students/la-acre site. 29 -. I I I- I I I I -I I I ·1 -I I I I- I I I I I • • The potential impact of storm drain flow into the Lagoon can be mitigated by draining the site northward into Canyon de las Encinas. This alternative has the potential benefit of supplying small summer flows from lawn wat~ring, etc. which could have a beneficial effect on riparian vegetation. This route should also be the least costly. Traffic generated by the project is not significant in itself, but when combined with other proposed and po- tential developments, the total could become a probiem-if not taken into account in planning the collector system in the area. 3. Alternatives to the Proposed Action a. No Project . The alternative of "no project" would be equivalent to continuing the site in its present agricultural use. --With development encroaching from both the west and south, this use will not continue for long. "No Project" can also be interpreted to mean a continuation of the -present estate zoning. Considering the PC development planned to the south and the expansion of the medium density, adult- only residential area on the west, the existing zoning-does not appear appropriate. b. School Sites The project area is shown on the proposed-General Plan of the City of Carlsbad as including four school sites:-one high school, one junior high and two elementary schools. Since it is not generally considered good practice to place _ 30 1) /V gJ/();j. :?? . -' . I I I . 1 I I I I I I· I I I I I I I I I • • schools with children of such differing ages so close toge- ther, we assume the intent is to indicate that sites will be required in the general area and that at most one site could be included on the property • The area of concern in estimating the need for addi- . . tional school sites is essentially·the area of approximately 3500 acres shown on Figure 4. It is a mix of more gentle topography such as the site with a proposed zoning allowing up to 7 DU/net acre, and steeper topography on which a lower density is appropriate. An overall density of about 4 DU/ . gross acre for the entire 3500-acre area appears resonable. Based on a table (6) obtained from Mr. Lance used for esti-· mating the yield of students, and assuming that price ranges will be at or above the "popular" range, the student yield of this 3200-acre area is estimated as follows: Area Number of units at 4 DU/acre Average student yield, assuming a mix of "single homes, 3 & 4 bedrooms, above popular price rangell and Ilapartments, 1 & 2 bedroom, medium rental range". Total generated at full development Estimated distribution: Elementary (40%) 4400 Junior High (20%) 2200 High School (40%) 4400 3500·acres 14,000 units I 0.8 students/DU 11,000 students . The distribution of students used above assumes a higher percentage of junior high and high school stud'ents . in the above average price ranges, and ~lso includes a t~end that is now developing of fewer students in the lower grades.· The "break" is now at about the third grade, and should reach junior high before the area reaches full development .. 31 I I I I I I 1 I I "I --=:.: )1 I I I I I I I )1 J • This estimate of student yield is, or course, very , rough. However, it does indicate that the area will pro- bably generate at least enough students to support a "school group" of one high school, one junior high and th~ support- ing number of elementary schools. The high school and junior high should be centrally located, but separated; possibly somewhere in the areas of flatter ground in the south half of Section 22 and the north ~alf of Section 27. The elementary schools should be distributed', depending on the maximum size desired by the District. A lO~acre ' elementary site has been committed by the Casas de las Poinsettias development immediately south of the project site. Considering the adult-only area to the west, the next' elementary site should probably be located further east than the proposed development; possibly in the area of flatter ground in the southeast of Section 21 ,(Figure 4). , ("'. Alternative Densities As noted previously, the proposed number of units will probably require a slight reduction to meet the pro- posed zoning requirement of 7 DU/~ acre. Any further reduction of the density would necessarily increase the price. The objective of, the project and the need as stated by the Carlsbad Planning Department '(I) is ,for housing in the under-$30,OOO bracket. posed density, the rapidly rising costs materials make this objective difficult 32 Even at the 'pro- of labor and' at best.

The Relationship Between Local Short-Term Uses of Man's Environment and the Maintenance and Enhance- ment of Long-Term Environmental Productivity - The "environmental cost" of the proposed develop- ment will be primarily in the area of the social systems. A short-term impact on schools has been identified and discussed, but this should not be a long-term impact. The long-term impact of converting land from agri- cultural to residential use appears justified. Th.e site is ideally suited to the proposed use, both because of its location with respect to existing uses and services, and also its physical and biotic characteristics. On the other hand, the agricultural use appears marginal, "and the proposed conversion has been anticipated in planning the area. 5. Any Irreversible Environmental Changes which would- Be Involved in the Proposed Action Should It Be Implemented The conversion of agricultural land to residential use discussed previously can be considered_ an irrevers~ble environmental change. This conversion would contribute to the expected conversion of the entire area between Rancho La Costa and the ocean. The project would not encourage this change, but it would not discourage it either. Irreversible environmental changes that would be expected to accompany this conversion are the incremental addition of air pollution from-increased-automobile use, a moderate increase in noise levels at the site, i~creased runoff due to streets and roof areas, and an incremental increase in governmental services such as police, fire, 33 'I' I I I I I I I I I I, ·1 I I I I. I I' I • '. schools, road maintenance, etc. The most ~ignificant of the above is the increased air pollution, and it appears that even this trend will be significantly reversed •. 6. The Growth Inducing Impacts of the Proposed Activity Upon the Neighborhood and/or Community , The proposed project should be considered a: part of the 3500-acre area, discussed prev~ously, that ·could exper- ience rapid growth inlthe relatively near future. This residential growth should be expected to stimulate some growth in local commercial areas (Carlsbad, near Encinitas, etc.) in the early phases. However, as the local 'popula- tion increases, local commercial undertakings would be expected to absorb more of the business of the area. The growth in the local schools has been discussed previously. Residential growth on adjacent. properties to the north and east would be expected to occur in any event. The proposed project would logically occur first as ~ matter of orderly expansion, but it cannot be cOllsidered as inducing such growth. 7. Boundaries of the Area which May Be Significantly Affected by the Proposed Activity The 3500-acre area (Figure 4) will be the area most significantly affected by the proposed action~ Develop- ment qf this area is just beginning; the planning of this development should be the result of close co~peration be- tween the developers, the City, the School District, and other involved groups. 34 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I .1 I • • Economic impacts will extend to the limits of the School District and the City, and into the business areas of adjacent communities. 8.
