If such exposures occur, appropriate collections should be made, followed by analysis and report preparation. Historic material may be encountered anywhere within the Holly-Seacliff property, but the area around the old Holly Sugar Refinery is probably more sensitive than the balance of the project area.Historical material recovered at the archaeological sites should be treated with those deposits. Prior to issuance of a grading permit, the applicant/developer shall provide written evidence to the City Planning Division that a qualified archaeologist has been retained by the applicant/developer to monitor initial ground disturbing activities to address unanticipated archaeological discoveries and any archaeological requirements (e.g., conditions of approval) that are applicable to the project. The applicant/developer shall conduct a field meeting prior to the start of construction activity with all construction supervisors to train staff to identify potential archaeological resources. In the event that archaeological materials area encountered during ground-disturbing activities, work in the immediate vicinity of the resource shall cease until a qualified archaeologist has assessed the discovery and appropriate treatment pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 is determined. If discovered archaeological resources are found to be significant, the archaeologist shall determine, in consultation with the City and any consulting Native American groups expressing interest following notification by the City, appropriate avoidance measures or other appropriate mitigation. Per CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.4(b)(3), preservation in place shall be the preferred means to avoid impacts to archaeological resources qualifying as historical resources. Consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 151 26.4(b)(3)(C),if it is demonstrated that confirmed resources cannot be avoided,the qualified archaeologist shall develop additional treatment measures, such as data recovery, 5 Addendum No. 2 to the Holly-Seacliff General Plan Amendment EIR MMRP City of Huntington Beach 19026 Goldenwest Commercial Street Responsible for Standard Condition/ Plan, Program, Policy/ Project Design Ensuring Compliance/ Date Completed and Features/Mitigation Measure Timing Verification Initials reburial/relocation, deposit at a local museum that accepts such resources, or other appropriate measures, in consultation with the implementing agency and any local Native American representatives expressing interest in prehistoric or tribal resources. If an archaeological site does not qualify as a historical resource but meets the criteria for a unique archaeological resource as defined in Section 21083.2,then the site shall be treated in accordance with the provisions of Section 21083.2. ENERGY PPP GHG-1: Title 24 Standards. The Project shall be designed in In Construction Plans and City of Huntington Beach accordance with the applicable Title 24 Energy Efficiency Standards for Specifications.

Prior to the Community Development Resource Impact Mitigation Plan(PRIMP)for submittal and review by the issuance of Grading Permits. Department City. Implementation of the PRIMP will ensure that adverse impacts to potentially significant paleontological resources are mitigated to a level less than significant level. The PRIMP shall comply with the provisions outlined below: 1. Shall comply with Holly-Seacliff Final Environmental Impact Report Mitigation Measures Paleontology 6 through 10. 2. Monitoring of mass grading and excavation activities in areas identified as likely to contain paleontological resources shall be performed by a qualified paleontologist or paleontological monitor. The PRIMP shall stipulate that monitoring will be conducted either full or part time at the determination of the paleontologist, based upon the identification of undisturbed sediments of "old paralic deposits undivided (late to middle Pleistocene" (Qop). The Project paleontologist is responsible to periodically visit the property during the initial stages of grading to identify the Pleistocene deposits and direct the initiation of monitoring. 3. Paleontological monitors shall be equipped to salvage fossils as they are unearthed to avoid construction delays. The monitor must be empowered to temporarily halt or divert equipment to allow removal of abundant or large specimens in a timely manner.The monitor shall notify the Project paleontologist,who will then notify the concerned parties of the discovery. Monitoring may be reduced if the potentially fossiliferous units are not present in the subsurface,or,if present,are determined upon exposure and examination by qualified paleontological personnel to have low potential to contain fossil resources. 4. Fossils shall be collected and placed in cardboard flats or plastic buckets and identified by field number, collector, and date collected. Notes shall be taken on the map location and 7 Addendum No. 2 to the Holly-Seacliff General Plan Amendment EIR MMRP City of Huntington Beach 19026 Goldenwest Commercial Street Responsible for Standard Condition/ Plan, Program, Policy/ Project Design Ensuring Compliance/ Date Completed and Features/Mitigation Measure Timing Verification Initials stratigraphy of the site, which is photographed before it is vacated, and the fossils are removed to a safe place. On mass grading projects, discovered fossil sites shall be protected by flagging to prevent them from being over-run by earthmovers (scrapers) before salvage begins. Fossils shall be collected in a similar manner,with notes and photographs being taken before removing the fossils. Precise location of the site shall be determined with the use of handheld GPS units. If the site involves remains from a large terrestrial vertebrate, such as large bone(s) or a mammoth tusk, that is/are too large to be easily removed by a single monitor,a fossil recovery crew shall excavate around the find, encase the find within a plaster and burlap jacket, and remove it after the plaster is set. For large fossils, use of the contractor's construction equipment may be solicited to help remove the jacket to a safe location. 5. Isolated fossils shall be collected by hand, wrapped in paper, and placed in temporary collecting flats or five-gallon buckets. Notes shall be taken on the map location and stratigraphy of the site,which shall be photographed before it shall be vacated and the fossils are removed to a safe place. 6. Particularly small invertebrate fossils typically represent multiple specimens of a limited number of organisms, and a scientifically suitable sample can be obtained from one to several five-gallon buckets of fossiliferous sediment. If it is possible to dry screen the sediment in the field, a concentrated sample may consist of one or two buckets of material. For vertebrate fossils, the test is usually the observed presence of small pieces of bones within the sediments. If present, as many as 20 to 40 five-gallon buckets of sediment can be collected and returned to a separate facility to wet-screen the sediment. 7. In accordance with the "Microfossil Salvage" section of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology guidelines (2010:7), bulk sampling and screening of fine-grained sedimentary deposits (including carbonate-rich paleosols) must be performed if the deposits are identified to possess indications of producing fossil "microvertebrates"to test the feasibility of the deposit to yield fossil bones and teeth. 8. In the laboratory, individual fossils are cleaned of extraneous matrix,any breaks are repaired,and the specimen,if needed, 8 Addendum No. 2 to the Holly-Seacliff General Plan Amendment EIR MMRP City of Huntington Beach 19026 Goldenwest Commercial Street Responsible for Standard Condition/ Plan, Program, Policy/ Project Design Ensuring Compliance/ Date Completed and Features/Mitigation Measure Timing Verification Initials is stabilized by soaking in an archivally approved acrylic hardener (e.g., a solution of acetone and Paraloid B-72). 9. Recovered specimens are prepared to a point of identification and permanent preservation (not display), including screen- washing sediments to recover small invertebrates and vertebrates. Preparation of individual vertebrate fossils is often more time-consuming than for accumulations of invertebrate fossils. 10. Identification and curation of specimens into a professional, accredited public museum repository with a commitment to archival conservation and permanent retrievable storage (e.g., the Western Science Center or the Orange County Natural History Foundation) shall be conducted. The paleontological program should include a written repository agreement prior to the initiation of mitigation activities. Prior to curation, the lead agency (e.g.,the City of Huntington Beach) will be consulted on the repository/museum to receive the fossil material. 11. A final report of findings and significance shall be prepared, including lists of all fossils recovered and necessary maps and graphics to accurately record their original location(s). The report, when submitted to, and accepted by, the appropriate lead agency, will signify satisfactory completion of the project program to mitigate impacts to any potential nonrenewable paleontological resources(i.e.,fossils)that might have been lost or otherwise adversely affected without such a program in place. 1 2. Decisions regarding the intensity of the MMRP will be made by the Project paleontologist based on the significance of the paleontological resources and their biostratigraphic, biochronologic, paleoecologic, taphonomic, and taxonomic attributes, not upon the ability of a Project proponent to fund the MMRP.
