Cultural Resources 1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor construction activities,to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. With the assistance of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will: • Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its archaeological value. • Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of archaeological sites within new developments, using their special qualities as a theme or focal point. • Pursue educating the public about the area's archaeological heritage. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-07 SUBTT16867 - ETCO DEVELOPMENT INC. January 25, 2006 Page 7 • Propose mitigation measures and recommend conditions of approval to eliminate adverse project effects on significant, important, and unique prehistoric resources, following appropriate CEQA guidelines. • Prepare a technical resources management report,documenting the inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the project area. Submit one copy of the completed report with original illustrations, to the San Bernardino County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving. 2) If any paleontological resource (i.e. plant or animal fossils) are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. The paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also provide specific recommendations regarding further mitigation measures (i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where mitigation monitoring is appropriate,the program must include, but not be limited to, the following measures: • Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time during the interval of earth-disturbing activities. • Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert earth-disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed salvage. If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert construction and notify the monitor of the find. • Prepare, identify, and curate all recovered fossils for documentation in the summary report and transfer to an appropriate depository (i.e., San Bernardino County Museum). • Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino County Museum. Geology and Soils 1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved bySCAQMD and RWQCB)daily to reduce PM10emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403 or re-planted with drought resistant landscaping as soon as possible. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-07 SUBTT16867 - ETCO DEVELOPMENT INC. January 25, 2006 Page 8 2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PM10 emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off-site. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. 3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to minimize PM10 emissions from the site during such episodes. 4) Chemical soil stabilizers(approved by SCAQMD and RW QCB)shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PM10 emissions. Hydrology and Water Quality 1) Prior to issuance of Grading Permits,the permit applicant shall submit to Building Official for approval, Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SW PPP) specifically identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that shall be used on-site to reduce pollutants during construction activities entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. 2) An Erosion Control Plan shall be prepared, included in Grading Plan, and implemented for the proposed project that identifies specific measures to control on-site and off-site erosion from the time ground disturbing activities are initiated through completion of grading. This erosion control plan shall include the following measures at a minimum: a) Specify the timing of grading and construction to minimize soil exposure to rainy periods experienced in southern California, and b) An inspection and maintenance program shall be included to ensure that any erosion which does occur either on-site or off-site as a result of this project will be corrected through a remediation or restoration program within a specified time frame. 3) During construction, temporary berms such as sandbags or gravel dikes must be used to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site when there is rainfall or other runoff. 4) During construction, to remove pollutants, street cleaning will be performed prior to storm events and after the use of water trucks to control dust in order to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site. 5) The developer shall implement the BMPs identified in the Water Quality Management Plan prepared by SP Consulting Group to reduce pollutants after construction entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-07 SUBTT16867 - ETCO DEVELOPMENT INC. January 25, 2006 Page 9 6) Landscaping plans shall include provisions for controlling and minimizing the use of fertilizers/pesticides/herbicides. Landscaped areas shall be monitored and maintained for at least two years to ensure adequate coverage and stable growth. Plans for these areas, including monitoring provisions for a minimum of two years, shall be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to the issuance of Grading Permits. 7) Practical information materials will be provided to the first residents/occupants/tenants. These materials shall include general housekeeping practices that contribute to protection of stormwater quality, and BMPs that eliminate or reduce pollution during property improvements (concrete work, pool installation, etc). These materials will be made available by the City of Rancho Cucamonga Planning Department. The developer shall request these materials in writing at least 30 days prior to intended distribution and shall then be responsible for their distribution at the time of occupancy of prospective residences. 8) If a homeowner's association is formed, conditions, covenants, and restrictions shall be required for the purpose of water quality protection. Alternatively, use restrictions may be developed by building operator through lease terms, or other mechanisms. Pesticide application in common areas must be performed by an applicator certified by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation. 9) Sites must be designed to contain and infiltrate roof runoff, or direct roof runoff to vegetative swales or buffer areas. 10) Irrigation methods should be utilized to minimize runoff of excess irrigation water across impervious surfaces and into the stormwater conveyance system. Such measures include employing rain-triggered shutoff devices to eliminate or reduce irrigation during and immediately after precipitation, using mulches (such as wood chips) to minimize sediment in runoff and to maintain soil infiltration capacity, and coordinating design of the irrigation system and landscape to minimize overspray and runoff. Irrigation systems should consider the use of flow reducers or shutoff valves triggered by a pressure drop to control water loss in the event of broken sprinkler heads or water supply lines. Water conservation devices such as programmable irrigation timers and soil moisture sensors should also be considered. 11) Project plans shall include Source-Control BMPs to decrease the potential for erosion of slopes and/or channels, consistent with local codes and ordinances, and with approval of all agencies with jurisdiction (e.g.USACOE, RWQCB,and CDFG). The following design principles shall be considered, and implemented where determined to be applicable and feasible by the City of Rancho Cucamonga: PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-07 SUBTT16867 - ETCO DEVELOPMENT INC. January 25, 2006 Page 10 • Convey runoff safely from the tops of slopes. • Avoid disturbing steep or unstable slopes. • Avoid disturbing natural channels. • Install permanent stabilization of BMPs on disturbed slopes as quickly as possible. • Vegetate slopes with native or drought-tolerant vegetation. • Control and treat flows in landscaping and/or other controls prior to reaching natural drainage systems. • Install permanent stabilization BMPs in channel crossings as quickly as possible, and ensure that increases in runoff velocity and frequency caused by the project do not excessively erode the channel. • Install energy dissipaters, such as riprap, at the outlets of new storm drains, culverts, conduits or channels that enter unlined channels in accordance with applicable specifications to minimize erosion. Energy dissipaters shall be installed in such a way as to minimize impacts to receiving waters. • On-site conveyance channels should be lined,where appropriate, to reduce erosion caused by increased flow velocity due to increases in tributary impervious area. The first choice for linings should be grass or some other vegetative surface, since these materials not only reduce runoff velocities, but also provide water quality benefits from filtration and infiltration. If velocities in the channel are large enough to erode grass or other vegetative linings, riprap, concrete soil cement, or geo-grid stabilization may be substituted or used in combination with grass or other vegetation stabilization. • Other design principles that are comparable and equally effective. 12) Signage such as notices regarding discharge prohibitions at storm drain inlets to eliminate or reduce dumping and littering are required. The phrase "No Dumping — Flows to Creek," or an equally effective phrase as approved by the NPDES General Committee, must be stenciled on catch basins (inlets) to alert the public as to the destination of pollutants discharged into storm drains. This signage must be maintained and a party responsible for maintenance should be identified in the WQMP. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-07 SUBTT16867 - ETCO DEVELOPMENT INC. January 25, 2006 Page 11 13) A pervious (porous)surface such as grass, modular pavers,or porous asphalt or concrete, must be used where appropriate (light vehicle loading areas) to reduce runoff. 14) Materials used to reduce potential sources of pollutants in stormwater runoff by eliminating compounds that can leach into runoff and reducing the need for pesticides, paints, and other materials are encouraged to be used. 15) Prior to issuance of Building Permits, the applicant shall submit to the City Engineer for approval of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), including a project description and identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that will be used on-site to reduce pollutants into the storm drain system to the maximum extent practicable. The WQMP shall identifythe structural and non-structural measures consistent with the Guidelines for New Development and Redevelopment adopted by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in June 2004. 16) Prior to issuance of Grading or Paving Permits, applicant shall obtain a Notice of Intent (NOI) to comply with obtaining coverage under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Construction Storm Water Permit from the State Water Resources Control Board. Evidence that this has been obtained (i.e., a copy of the Waste Discharger's Identification Number)shall be submitted to the City Building Official for coverage under the NPDES General Construction Permit. Noise 1) Construct sound attenuation barriers along the south tract boundary per the recommendations of the Noise Impact Study(Gordon Bricken and Associates, September 16, 2005). This sound barrier shall be constructed as early as possible during construction of this project. Walls heights greater than 8 feet shall require approval of a variance application. 2) Once building plans are submitted to the Planning Department, an Acoustical Analysis shall be prepared to determine the building mitigation required to meet the 45 dBA CNEL interior noise standard. 3) Construction or grading shall not take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a national holiday. 4) Construction or grading noise levels shall not exceed the standards specified in Development Code Section 17.02.120-D, as measured at the property line. The developer shall hire a consultant to perform PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-07 SUBTT16867 - ETCO DEVELOPMENT INC. January 25, 2006 Page 12 weekly noise level monitoring as specified in Development Code Section 17.02.120. Monitoring at other times may be required by the Building Official. Said consultant shall report their findings to the Building Official within 24 hours; however, if noise levels exceed the above standards, then the consultant shall immediately notify the Building Official. If noise levels exceed the above standards, then construction activities shall be reduced in intensity to a level of compliance with above noise standards or halted. 5) The perimeter block wall shall be constructed as early as possible in first phase. 6) Haul truck deliveries shall not take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a national holiday. Additionally, if heavy trucks used for hauling would exceed 100 daily trips (counting both to and from the construction site), then the developer shall prepare a noise mitigation plan denoting any construction traffic haul routes. To the extent feasible, the plan shall denote haul routes that do not pass sensitive land uses or residential dwellings. APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 25TH DAY OF JANUARY 2006.

Landscaped areas shall be monitored and maintained for at least two years to ensure adequate coverage and stable growth. Plans for these areas, including monitoring provisions for a minimum of two years, shall be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to the issuance of Grading Permits. Practical information materials will be provided to the BO B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 first residents/occupants/tenants. These materials shall include general housekeeping practices that contribute to protection of storrnwater quality, and BMPs that eliminate or reduce pollution during property improvements (concrete work, pool installation, etc). These materials will be made available by the City of Rancho Cucamonga Planning Department. The developer shall request these materials in writing at least 30 days prior to intended distribution and shall then be responsible for their distribution at the time of occupancy of prospective residences. If a homeowner's association is formed, conditions, CE D Upon B 7 covenants, and restrictions shall be required for the Occupancy purpose of water quality protection. Alternatively, use restrictions may be developed by building operator through lease terms, or other mechanisms. Pesticide application in common areas must be performed by an applicator certified by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation. 6of11 Mitigation Measures No. I Responsible Monitoring Timing of Method of Verified Sanctions for Implementing Action for Monitoring Frequency Verification Verification Date /initials Non-Compliance Sites must be designed to contain and infiltrate roof BO/CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 runoff, or direct roof runoff to vegetative swales or buffer areas. Irrigation methods should be utilized to minimize BO/CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 runoff of excess irrigation water across impervious surfaces and into the stormwater conveyance system.. Such measures include employing rain-triggered shutoff devices to eliminate or reduce irrigation during and immediately after precipitation, using mulches (such as wood chips) to minimize sediment in runoff and to maintain soil infiltration capacity, and coordinating design of the irrigation system and landscape to minimize overspray and runoff. Irrigation systems should consider the use of flow reducers or shutoff valves triggered by a pressure drop to control water loss in the event of broken sprinkler heads or water supply lines. Water conservation devices such as programmable irrigation timers and soil moisture sensors should also be considered. Project plans shall include Source-Control BMPs to CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 decrease the potential for erosion of slopes and/or channels, consistent with local codes and ordinances, and with approval of all agencies with jurisdiction (e.g USACOE, RWQCB, and CDFG). The following design principles shall be considered, and implemented where determined to be applicable and feasible by the City of Rancho Cucamonga: Convey runoff safely from the tops of slopes. CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 Avoid disturbing natural channels. CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 Install permanent stabilization of BMPs on disturbed CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 slopes as quickly as possible. Vegetate slopes with native or drought-tolerant CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 vegetation. Control and treat flows in landscaping and/or other CE B/C/D Review of plans I A/C 214 controls prior to reaching natural drainage systems. 7of11 Mitigation Measures No. Responsible Monitoring Timing of Method of Verified Sanctions for Implementing Action for Monitoring Frequency Verification Venfication Date Install permanent stabilization BMPs in channel CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 crossings as quickly as possible, and ensure that increases in runoff velocity and frequency caused by the project do not excessively erode the channel. Install energy dissipaters, such as riprap, at the CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 outlets of new storm drains, culverts, conduits or channels that enter unlined channels in accordance with applicable specifications to minimize erosion. Energy dissipaters shall be installed in such a way as to minimize impacts to receiving waters. On-site conveyance channels should be lined, where CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 appropriate, to reduce erosion caused by increased flow velocity due to increases in tributary impervious area. The first choice for linings should be grass or some other vegetative surface, since these materials not only reduce runoff velocities, but also provide water quality benefits from filtration and infiltration. If velocities in the channel are large enough to erode grass or other vegetative linings, riprap, concrete soil cement, or geo-grid stabilization may be substituted or used in combination with grass or other vegetation stabilization. Other design principles that are comparable and CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 equally effective. Signage such as notices regarding discharge CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 prohibitions at storm drain inlets to eliminate or reduce dumping and littering are required. The phrase"No Dumping — Flows to Creek," or an equally effective phrase as approved by the NPDES General Committee, must be stenciled on catch basins(inlets)to alert the public as to the destination of pollutants discharged into storm drains. This signage must be maintained and a party responsible for maintenance should be identified in the WQMP. 8of11 A pervious (porous) surface such as grass, modular CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 pavers, or porous asphalt or concrete, must be used where appropriate (light vehicle loading areas) to reduce runoff. Materials used to reduce potential sources of BO B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 pollutants in stormwater runoff by eliminating compounds that can leach into runoff and reducing the need for pesticides, paints, and other materials are encouraged to be used. Prior to issuance of Building Permits, the applicant CE B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 shall submit to the City Engineer for approval of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), including a project description and identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that will be used on-site to reduce pollutants into the storm drain system to the maximum extent practicable. The WQMP shall identify the structural and non-structural measures consistent with the Guidelines for New Development and Redevelopment adopted by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in June 2004. Prior to issuance of Grading or Paving Permits, BO B/C/D Review of plans A/C 2/4 applicant shall obtain a Notice of Intent (NOI) to comply with obtaining coverage under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Construction Storm Water Permit from the State Water Resources Control Board.
