B. HASHMI, INC.

The project will decommission an existing Auto Park Sewer Pump Station and connect the existing sewer that serves the Auto Pazk to a downstream gravity sewer system in the Crossings Shopping Center parking lot. The proposed action would award a contract for decommissioning of the Auto Park Sewer Pump Station and authorize the Director of Public Works to expend available contingency funds, as may be necessary to complete the project in accordance with City standards. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the project was covered in the previously certified Salt Creek Gravity Sewer Interceptor Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FEIR 01-03). A component of the overall project involving the actual removal and decommissioning of the existing sewer pump station was not cleazly addressed in FEIR 01-03 and resulted in the need for further environmental analysis. The environmental review analyzed all the changed circumstances and the new detailed information associated with the sewer pump station decommissioning process. The Environmental Review Coordinator has determined that only minor technical changes or additions to FEIR 01-03 are necessary and that none of these changes create the conditions requiring the preparation of a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR pursuant to CEQA Guidelines, Sections 15162 and 15163. 9-1 11/17/09, Item Page 2 of 3 Therefore, the Environmental Review Coordinator has prepared an addendum pursuant to Section 15164(a) of the State CEQA Guidelines to this document, Salt Creek Gravity Sewer Interceptor Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FEIR 01-03). RECOMMENDATION Council adopt the resolution. BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Not applicable.
