The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires a public agency to adopt a monitoring and reporting program for assessing and ensuring compliance with any required mitigation measures applied to proposed development. As stated in Section 21081.6(a)(1) of the Public Resources Code: 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. Section 21081.6 also provides general guidelines for implementing mitigation monitoring programs. The mitigation monitoring table lists those mitigation measures that may be included as conditions of approval for the project. To ensure that the mitigation measures are properly implemented, a monitoring program has been devised that identifies the timing and responsibility for monitoring each measure. The first column identifies mitigation measures that were identified in the EIR. The second column, entitled “Action Required,” refers to the action that must be taken by the implementing party, usually the project applicant, to ensure implementation of the measure. The third column, entitled “Monitoring Timing,” refers to when the monitoring will occur, ensuring that the action will be completed. The fourth column, “Monitoring Responsibility,” refers to the agency responsible for overseeing or ensuring that the mitigation measure is implemented. The fifth column, entitled “Compliance Verification,” is where the Responsible Agency verifies that the measures have been implemented.

In the event that vibration-generating construction activity is required within 13 feet of nearby older buildings similar to “historic and some old buildings,” the construction contractor shall implement a monitoring program to minimize damage to adjacent buildings and ensure that any such damage is documented and repaired. If required, the monitoring program shall include the following components: • Prior to the start of any ground-disturbing activity within 13 feet of adjacent buildings, the construction contractor shall engage a structural engineer or other professional with similar qualifications to document and photograph the existing conditions of potentially affected buildings within 13 feet of proposed vibratory-generating construction activities. • Based on the construction and condition of the resource(s), the consultant shall also establish a standard maximum vibration level that will not be exceeded at nearby buildings, based on existing conditions, character-defining features, MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM Infinite 131 Project City of South San Francisco State Clearinghouse No. 2023110023 17 Mitigation Measure Action Required Monitoring Timing Monitoring Responsibility Compliance Verification Initial Date Comments soil conditions, and anticipated construction practices. A common standard is a peak particle velocity of 0.25 inch per second for “historic and some old buildings,” as shown in Table5-1. • To ensure that vibration levels do not exceed the established standard, the project sponsor shall monitor vibration levels at each structure and prohibit vibratory construction activities that generate vibration levels in excess of the standard Should vibration levels be observed in excess of the selected standard, construction shall be halted and alternative construction techniques put in practice, to the extent feasible. • When vibration-intensive activity (e.g., heavy earth-disturbing equipment) occurs within 13 feet of a building, the structural engineer shall conduct an inspection of the building for damage within 7 days of that activity. If inspections determine that no damage occurred, the 7-day period may be increased to 30 days for that activity. Should damage to adjacent buildings occur, the building(s) shall be remediated to their preconstruction condition at the conclusion of ground-disturbing activity on the site. • Should all ground-disturbing construction activity occur 13 feet or more from the nearest existing structure, this monitoring plan shall not be required.

A partial redesign of this intersection is already funded by the 100 Produce, 124 Airport, and 40 Airport projects, which will include removal of slip lanes on the northeast, northwest, and southwest corners. The project’s redesign shall include the reconfiguration of turning lanes, improvements to pedestrian and bicycle facilities, and the addition of bus stops and shelters for SamTrans Route 292, as identified by the City. 3. Construction of a Class IV Separated Bikeway from Baden Avenue to Terminal Court via Airport Boulevard and Produce Avenue: The project shall implement a Class IV separated bikeway on Produce Avenue and Airport Boulevard from Baden Avenue to Terminal Court, connecting the Caltrain station to the project site. This bikeway would close existing gaps between the project site, Caltrain station, and downtown South San Francisco, enabling continuous bicycle travel separated from auto and truck traffic. Improvements would include construction of a two-way facility along the west side of Produce Avenue from Terminal Court to Airport Boulevard/San Mateo Avenue, transitioning to a pair of one-way MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM Infinite 131 Project City of South San Francisco State Clearinghouse No. 2023110023 20 Mitigation Measure Action Required Monitoring Timing Monitoring Responsibility Compliance Verification Initial Date Comments facilities through the Caltrain crossing to Baden Avenue.

A second off-ramp would facilitate more direct access to the overpass and address long-term queueing concerns. The off-ramp would be accompanied by a new street connection between Utah Avenue and Produce Avenue north of the project site. 6. Engineering Study and Fair-share Contribution toward a New Trail Crossing of U.S. 101 South of the Project Site: The project shall fund an engineering study for a new Class I shared-use path crossing of U.S. 101 to connect the Bay Trail with Shaw Road. The engineering study shall be led by the City. An engineering study of the planned U.S. 101 crossing has not yet occurred, and a preferred alternative alignment has not been determined. The engineering study will consider potential trail crossing alignments, incorporate the preferred alternative alignment into its site plan, and quantify a fair-share contribution toward construction of the crossing. The mitigation shall be completed by the applicant prior to the project receiving a certificate of occupancy. If the City implements these improvements in advance of the project’s construction, the project shall reimburse the City for the cost of construction.
