alternatives to the Project that could feasibly obtain the basic objectives of the Project (including the
"No Project" Alternative), even when these alternatives might impede the attainment of Project
objectives and might be more costly Further, the City Council finds that a good faith effort was
made to incorporate suggested alternatives in the preparation of the Draft SEIR and that a
reasonable range of alternatives was considered in the review process of the Final SEIR and
ultimate decisions on the Project
SECTION 5 The City Council finds that no "substantial evidence" (as that term is defined
pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15384) has been presented which would call into question
the facts and conclusions in the Final SEIR
SECTION 6 The City Council finds that no "significant new information" (as that term is
defined pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15088 5) has been added to the Draft SEIR The
City Council finds that the refinements that have been made in the Project or the Errata do not
amount to significant new information concerning the Project, nor has any significant new
information concerning the Project become known to the City Council through the public hearings
held on the Project, through the comments on the Draft SEIR, through the comments on the
Recirculated Section 4 10 or through the Responses to Comments
SECTION 7 The City Council finds that the Mitigation Monitoring Program establishes a
mechanism and procedures for implementing and verifying the mitigations pursuant to Public
Resources Code 21081.6 and hereby adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program The mitigation
measures shall be incorporated into the Project prior to or concurrent with Project implementation
SECTION 8 The City Council finds and certifies that the Final SEIR reflects the
independent review and judgment of the City of Huntington Beach City Council that the Final SEIR
was presented to the City Council and that the City Council reviewed and considered the

MITIGATION, MONITORING, AND REPORTING
PROGRAM
1.1 INTRODUCTION
As the lead agency under CEQA,the City of Huntington Beach(City)is required to adopt a
program for reporting or monitoring regarding the implementation of mitigation measures to
ensure that the adopted mitigation measures are implemented as defined in the Subsequent
Environmental Impact Report(SEIR)and listed in Table 1-1. This lead agency responsibility
originates in Public Resources Code Section 21081 6(a) and CEQA Guidelines Section
15097 (Mitigation Monitoring or Reporting).
1.2 MONITORING AUTHORITY
The purpose of a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) is to ensure that
measures adopted to mitigate or avoid significant impacts are implemented An MMRP
can be a working guide to facilitate not only the implementation of mitigation measures by
the project proponent, but also the monitoring, compliance, and reporting activities of the
City and any monitors it may designate
The City may delegate duties and responsibilities for monitoring to other environmental
monitors or consultants as deemed necessary, and some monitoring responsibilities may
be assumed by responsible agencies, such as affected jurisdictions and cities The
number of construction monitors assigned to the project will depend on the number of
concurrent construction activities and their locations The City or its designee(s), however,
will ensure that each person delegated any duties or responsibilities is qualified to monitor
compliance.
It is the responsibility of the environmental monitor assigned to ensure that appropriate
agency reviews and approvals are obtained. The City or its designee will also ensure that
any deviation from the procedures identified under the monitoring program is approved by
the City Any deviation and its correction shall be reported immediately to the City or its
designee by the environmental monitor assigned.

1.3 ENFORCEMENT RESPONSIBILITY
The City is responsible for enforcing the procedures adopted for monitoring through the
environmental monitor assigned to each construction area Any assigned environmental
monitor shall note problems with monitoring, notify appropriate agencies or individuals
about any problems, and report the problems to the City or its designee.
1.4 MITIGATION COMPLIANCE RESPONSIBILITY
The applicant is responsible for successfully implementing all the mitigation measures in the
MMRP, and is responsible for assuring that these requirements are met by all of its
construction contractors and field personnel. Standards for successful mitigation are implicit
in many mitigation measures that include such requirements as obtaining permits or avoiding
a specific impact entirely Other mitigation measures include detailed success criteria
Additional mitigation success thresholds will be established by applicable agencies with
jurisdiction through the permit process and through the review and approval of specific plans
for the implementation of mitigation measures
1.5 GENERAL MONITORING PROCEDURES
Environmental Monitors. Many of the monitoring procedures will be conducted during the
construction phase of the project The City and the environmental monitor(s) are
responsible for integrating the mitigation monitoring procedures into the construction process
in coordination with the applicant The environmental monitor is responsible for ensuring
that all procedures specified in the monitoring program are followed.
Construction Personnel. A key feature contributing to the success of mitigation
monitoring will be obtaining the full cooperation of construction personnel and supervisors
Many of the mitigation measures require action on the part of the construction supervisors
or crews for successful implementation To ensure success,the following actions,detailed
in specific mitigation measures, will be taken
® Procedures to be followed by construction companies hired to do the work will be written
into contracts between the applicant and any construction contractors. Procedures to
be followed by construction crews will be written into a separate document that all
construction personnel will be asked to sign, denoting agreement
City of Huntington Beach 1-2 August 2010
Exhibit"A,"Resolution No 2010-63
Seawater Desalination Project at Huntington Beach MIVIRP
Final Subsequent Environmental Impact Report
® One or more pre-construction meetings will be held to inform and train construction
personnel about the requirements of the monitoring program.
General Reporting Procedures. Site visits and specified monitoring procedures
performed by other individuals will be reported to the environmental monitor assigned. A
checklist will be developed and maintained by the environmental monitor to track all
procedures required for each mitigation measure and to ensure that the timing specified for
the procedures is adhered to. The environmental monitor will note any problems that may
occur and take appropriate action to rectify the problems.
