Document Description
On April 8, 2015, the Mid County Parkway project was approved. A FEIR/EIS was prepared and certified for the MCP. Minor changes have now been proposed to the MCP to slightly modify the MCP footprint and right of way by; 1) adding a 154.3 acre site (Sweeney Mitigation Site) to the MCP's 1,327.2 acre footprint for the section 404 Nationwide Permit mitigation and to enhance and expand the 10-year floodplain east of the San Jacinto River by removing the existing earthen berm along the active channel, lowering the elevation, and revegetating portions of the Sweeney Mitigation Site with native species, and 2) expanding the MCP right-of-way along the northern boundary of the Sweeney Mitigation Site by 1.52 acres to account for utility relocation necessary to construct the MCP. The modified MCP is expected to improve floodplain functions, surface water storage ad native habitat functions, and will also reduce MCP effects to special-status species as required under the MCP Western Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan Consistency Determination Including Determination of Biologically Equivalent or Superior Preservation Analysis. As fully analyzed in the Addendum to the EIR/EIS, the modifications would not result in any new or substantially increased significant environmental impacts; thus, an Addendum to the EIR/EIS is appropriate.
