The work plan divides the environmental evaluation into two phases: Task Group 2 focuses on the <br />project description, the scoping of the environmental analysis, and the initial identification of impacts <br />and mitigation measures; Task Group 3 provides the possibility of adjusting the project in order to take <br />advantage - where they exist - of possibilities for making the Specific Plan self-mitigating. <br /> <br />Task Group 4 covers the activities after the Draft EIR is published. These activities include public <br />hearings, responding to comments on the DEIR, and preparing other project CEQA documents: a <br />Mitigation Monitoring Plan, Findings, and (if needed) Statements of Overriding Considerations. This <br />last phase is less amenable to both scheduling and costing, as is discussed below. <br /> <br />Timing <br /> <br />Work on the project would begin as soon as authorized by the City. The provisional schedule on the <br />next page assumes a start date for the EIR in late July, availability of the draft publication version of the <br />Phase II Specific Plan by late August, and completion of scoping in September. <br /> <br />The schedule reflects time requirements for professional work, for staff review and feedback, and for <br />the periods of public participation in the process (scoping, public comment, public meetings and <br />hearings). The schedule could be affected by a number of outside factors that include holidays and <br />vacations of participants, calendaring of public meetings, and other timing conflicts. <br /> <br /> Provisional Schedule <br /> (assumes July 25 start date) <br /> <br /> Weeks Target Date for <br /> Activity Required Completion of Phase <br />Phase 1 (Task Group 1) <br /> Contracting orientation and starmp 1 <br /> Confirm project and alternatives definition <br /> Ci~ Council to take action Au~st 16 <br /> Prepare/d!~tribute Initial Study 2 <br /> Public scoping meeting ~ (concurrent*) September 20 <br /> <br /> Phase 2 (Task Group 2) <br /> Complete project and alternatives narratives [ 1 <br /> Conduct site and use reviews; scope technical studies 1 <br /> Conduct technical analysis 6 <br /> Reporting: Setting !mpact~ Mitig~t!ons <br /> Consult with staff/consider possible project revisions 1 December 6 <br /> Phase 3 (Task Group 3) <br /> Refi~e DEIR proje~ 1 <br /> Revise initial Setting Impacts Mitigations chapter (concurrent) <br /> Complete Administrative DE1R 1 <br /> Staffrewew ofAdmin.
