BRAGDON �. .¢-� -'s County DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT �'iy1/ b DATE: November 6, 1992 �ouH`t'i SUBJECT: Contract for the Preparation of the Environmental Impact Report for the Proposed Shell Oil Company Clean Fuels Project (LUP #2009-92) SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATIONS Authorize the Director of Community Development to execute on behalf of the County a Contract with the firm of EIP Associates, in an amount not to exceed $498 , 827 , for the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report and Mitigation Monitoring Program for the proposed Shell Oil Company Clean Fuels Project (County Land Use Permit #2009-92) . FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact to the County. The cost of the Environ- mental Impact Report and the Mitigation Monitoring Program is paid for by the Shell Oil Company, the project proponent. The proponent also pays an administrative fee (equivalent to 30% of the contract cost) which funds staff costs. BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS The California Environmental Quality Act requires the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report for a proposed project where the project is subject to a discretionary action and where there are significant adverse environmental impacts. Several potentially significant environmental impacts were identified in the initial study prepared for the proposed Clean Fuels project and by agencies/individuals responding to the Notice of Preparation. The EIR consultant was selected by a competitive process established by the County. Failure to execute this contract would delay the preparation of the Environmental Impact Report and, subsequently, delay the decision on the project itself.
