1. Introduction
1.1 PURPOSE OF MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM
This Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) has been developed to provide a vehicle by which to monitor
mitigation measures and conditions of approval outlined in the Draft Environmental Impact Report (Draft
EIR), for the Anaheim General Plan Focused Update (proposed project) (State Clearinghouse [SCH]
2022020363) dated December 2024. The MMRP has been prepared in conformance with Section 21081.6 of
the Public Resources Code. Section 21081.6 states:
(a) When making findings required by paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) of Section 21081 or when
adopting a mitigated negative declaration pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (c) of
Section 21080, the following requirements shall apply:
(1) The public agency shall adopt a reporting or monitoring program for the changes made
to the project or conditions of project approval, adopted in order to mitigate or avoid
significant effects on the environment. The reporting or monitoring program shall be
designed to ensure compliance during project implementation. For those changes which
have been required or incorporated into the project at the request of a responsible agency
or a public agency having jurisdiction by law over natural resources affected by the project,
that agency shall, if so requested by the lead or responsible agency, prepare and submit a
proposed reporting or monitoring program.
(2) The lead agency shall specify the location and custodian of the documents or other
material which constitute the record of proceedings upon which its decision is based.
1.2 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
1.2.1 Impacts Considered No Impact or Less Than Significant
The EIR identified various thresholds from the CEQA Guidelines among a number of environmental
categories that would not be significantly impacts by the proposed project in Chapter 5, EnvironmentalAnalysis,
and Chapter 8, Impacts Found Not to Be Significant, and therefore, did not require mitigation. Impacts to the
following environmental resources were found to be less than significant or have no impact:
No Impact
■ Agriculture and Forestry Resources
■ Mineral Resources

■ Wildfire (Impacts 5.18-1 through, 5.18-4; Cumulative Impacts)
1.2.2 Potentially Significant Adverse Impacts That Can Be Mitigated, Avoided,
or Substantially Lessened
The EIR concluded that the proposed project could result in one or more potentially significant impacts in the
following topic areas:
■ Biological Resources (Impacts 5.3-1, through 5.3-6; Cumulative Impacts)
■ Cultural Resources (Impacts 5.4-1 and 5.4-2; Cumulative Impacts [archaeological and human remains]).
■ Geology and Soils (Impact 5.6-6; Cumulative Impacts [paleontological resources])
■ Tribal Cultural Resources (Impact 5.16-1; Cumulative Impacts)

1. Introduction
However, the EIR also found that these impacts would be reduced, avoided, or substantially lessened through
the implementation of mitigation measures, which are listed in Table 1, Mitigation Monitoring Requirements.
1.2.3 Unavoidable Significant Adverse Impacts
The following impact would remain significant and unavoidable after implementation of required mitigation,
as identified in the EIR:
■ Air Quality (Impacts 5.2-2 through 5.2-4; Cumulative Impacts)
■ Cultural Resources (Cumulative Impacts [historic resources])
■ Greenhouse Gas Emissions (Impact 5.7-1; Cumulative Impacts)
■ Noise (Impacts 5.11-1 and 5.11-2; Cumulative Impacts)

2. Mitigation Monitoring Requirements
2.1 CATEGORIZED MITIGATION MEASURES/MATRIX
Project -specific mitigation measures (MM) have been categorized in matrix format, as shown in Table 1,
Mitigation Monitoring Requirements. The mitigation measures were included in the Draft PEIR, with minor
modifications in the Final PEIR, and are applicable to the proposed project. The matrix identifies the
environmental factor, specific mitigation measures, schedule, and responsible monitor. The mitigation matrix
will serve as the basis for scheduling the implementation of and compliance with all mitigation measures.
In addition to the mitigation measures presented, the City will be adopting Master List of Standard Conditions
of Approval that are applied to all development project through the plan -check review process. Compliance
with standard conditions would be required for all new development and redevelopment in the City.

■ Removal of native vegetation shall be limited to
only those necessary to construct a proposed

■ To the extent possible, vegetation shall be
removed outside of the avian nesting season, or
from August 1 through January 31 (for urbanized
areas of the City) or October 1 through January 31
(for the Hill and Canyon Area).
■ If a proposed future project requires vegetation to
be removed during the nesting season, or between
February 1 and July 31 (for urbanized areas of the
City) or between February 1 and September 30 (for
the Hill and Canyon Area), pre -construction

removal to determine whether or not active nests
are present.
■ If an active nest is located during a pre -
construction survey, a qualified Biologist shall
determine an appropriately sized avoidance buffer
based on the species and anticipated disturbance
level. A qualified Biologist shall delineate the
avoidance buffer using Environmentally Sensitive
Area (ESA) fencing, pin flags, and or yellow
caution tape. The buffer zone shall be maintained
around the active nest site(s) until the young have
fledged and are foraging independently. No
construction activities or construction foot traffic is
allowed to occur within the avoidance buffer(s).
■ The qualified Biologist shall monitor the active nest
during construction activities to prevent any
potential impacts that may result from the
construction of the proposed project until the young
have fledged.

proponent shall employ a qualified Biologist to perform a
pre -construction survey for bats within 30 days prior to
removal of the potential habitat. If no bats are found
present, then the trees, structures, or other potential
habitat may be demolished and no further mitigation
shall be required. If bats are found present, bats may be
safely evicted during two seasonal periods of bat
activity. For most species that occur in the planning
area, bats can be evicted safely between approximately
March 1 (or when evening temperatures are above 45°F
(degree Fahrenheit) and rainfall less than 0.5 inch in 24
hours occurs) and April 15, prior to parturition of pups.
The next acceptable period is after pups become self -
sufficiently volant, generally accepted to be between
September 1 through October 15 (or prior to evening
temperatures dropping below 45°F and onset of rainfall
greater than 0.5 inch in 24 hours). Evictions shall be
implemented by a qualified Biologist accordingly:
■ There are two methods for evicting bats from
occupied tree cavities or structures. The first,
utilized mainly when the cavity or building is in
good condition and the work is feasible, is
"humane eviction," or "bat exclusion," which relies
on the bats' own ability to fly out of the roost. In this
method, all potential but currently unused entry
points into the cavity or structure are sealed. The
active entry points are fitted with one-way exits,
which are left in place 7 to 10 days to allow all bats
to emerge normally during nightly feeding flights.
The one-way exits are then removed, and the
remaining openings sealed until demolition if it will

occur more than 30 days before demolition. If the
interval between successful eviction and demolition
will be short (less than 4 weeks), the one-way exits
may often be left in place until demolition. This
eviction work must be conducted by or under direct
supervision or instruction of a qualified Biologist.
■ In some cases, the physical condition of the cavity
or structure is so poor that humane eviction as
described above is not feasible. If that occurs, the
tree or building must be carefully and selectively
dismantled in such a way that the internal
environment is altered to a degree sufficient to
cause bats to abandon the roost and not return.
This must occur under the guidance of a bat
Biologist qualified in partial dismantling of tree
cavities or structures for bat eviction.

■ Fugitive dust produced during grading, excavation, and construction activities
shall be controlled by the following activities:
o All trucks shall be required to cover their loads as required by
California Vehicle Section 23114. Covering loads and maintaining a
freeboard height of 12 inches can reduce PM10 emissions by 91
percent.
o All graded and excavated material, exposed soil areas, and active
portions of the construction site, including unpaved on -site
roadways, shall be treated to prevent fugitive dust. Treatment shall
include, but not necessarily be limited to, periodic watering,
application of environmentally safe soil stabilization materials,
and/or roll -compaction as appropriate. Watering shall be done as
often as necessary and reclaimed water shall be used whenever
possible. Application of water every three hours to disturbed areas
can reduce PM10 emissions by 61 percent.
■ Graded and/or excavated inactive areas of the construction site shall be
monitored at least weekly for dust stabilization. Soil stabilization methods, such
as water and roll -compaction, and environmentally safe dust control materials,
shall be periodically applied to portions of the construction site that are inactive
for over four days. If no further grading or excavation operations are planned
for the area, the area should be seeded and watered until grass growth is
evident, or periodically treated with environmentally safe dust suppressants, to
prevent excessive fugitive dust. Replacement of ground cover in disturbed
areas can reduce PM10 emissions by 5 percent.
■ Signs shall be posted on -site limiting traffic to 15 miles per hour or less. This
measure can reduce associated PM10 emissions by 57 percent.
■ During periods of high winds (i.e., wind speed sufficient to cause fugitive dust
to impact adjacent properties), all clearing, grading, earth -moving, and
excavation operations shall be curtailed to the degree necessary to prevent
fugitive dust created by on -site activities and operations from being a nuisance
or hazard off -site or on -site. The site superintendent/supervisor shall use
his/her discretion in conjunction with SCAQMD when winds are excessive.
■ Adjacent streets and roads shall be swept at least once per day, preferably at
the end of the day, if visible soil material is carried over to adjacent streets and
roads.
■ Personnel involved in grading operations, including contractors and
subcontractors, should be advised to wear respiratory protection in accordance
with California Division of Occupational Safety and Health regulations.

nesting season (February 1 to July 31), a pre -construction nesting bird survey of
structures to be demolished and/or vegetation to be removed shall be conducted by a
qualified Biologist no more than three days prior to such work occurring. If the Biologist
does not find any active nests within or immediately adjacent to the impact area, the
Biologist's findings shall be submitted to the Planning and Building Department and the
vegetation clearing/construction work shall be allowed to proceed. The pre -construction
nesting bird survey shall be updated following any work stoppage of two weeks or longer.
If an active nest of a bird species protected under California Fish and Game Code or the
Migratory Bird Treaty Act is identified within or immediately adjacent to the construction
area, and the Biologist determines that the nest may be impacted or breeding activities
substantially disrupted, the Biologist shall delineate an appropriate no -impact buffer zone
(at a minimum of 25 feet) around the nest depending on the sensitivity of the species and
the nature of the construction activity. All nests and associated buffers shall be mapped on
the construction plans. The active nest shall be protected until nesting activity has ended.
The following restrictions to clearing and/or construction activities shall be required until
nest(s) are no longer active, as determined by a qualified Biologist: (1) clearing limits shall
be established within a buffer around any occupied nest (the buffer shall be 25 to 100 feet
for nesting birds and 300 to 500 feet for nesting raptors), unless otherwise determined by
a qualified Biologist; and (2) access shall be restricted within the buffer of any active nest,
unless otherwise determined by a qualified Biologist. Encroachment into the buffer area
around a known nest shall only be allowed if the Biologist determines that the proposed
activity would not disturb the nest occupants. Once the qualified Biologist has determined
that fledglings have left the nest, there is no evidence of a second nesting attempt, or the
nest has failed, the Biologist's findings shall be submitted to the Planning and Building
Department and construction can proceed within the buffer zone.
Cultural Resources
SC CUL-1 City staff shall require property owners/developers to provide studies to document the
