CDE Guidelines: In the California Department of Educations (CDE) School SiteSelection & Approval Guide, CDE establishes a number of criteriafor selectingnew school properties. Below are a summary of the issues. Seehttp://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/fa/sf/schoolsiteguide.aspfor the complete document: Proximity to Airports: From the CDE Guide:
If the site is within two nautical miles of an existing airport runway or a potential runway included in anairport master plan, as measured by direct air line from the part of the runway that is nearest to the schoolsite, the following procedures must be followed before the site can be approved.
Proximity to High Voltage Power Lines: From the CDE Guide. See guide for further descriptions and exceptions.
In consultation with the State Department of Health Services (DHS) and electric power companies, theDepartment has established the following limits for locating anypart of a school site property line near the
edge of easements for high-voltage power transmission lines: 100 feet from the edge of an easement for a 50-133kV (kilo volts) line
150 feet from the edge of an easement for a 220-230kV line
350 feet from the edge of an easement for a 500-550kV line
These figures represent kV strengths of transmission lines used by
Presence of Toxic & Hazardous Substances: While the Guide goes into greater detail, sites should be pass a PhaseOne Environmental Site Assessment and not be near landfills, former dumps, chemical plants, fuel storagefacilities or contain naturally occurring materials such as asbestos, oil and gas.
Hazardous Air Emissions and Facilities Within a Quarter Mile: As the title implies, properties that are adjacent orwithin a quarter of a mile of hazardous air emissions (includingmajor freeways) should be avoided.

CDE Guidelines Continued::
Proximity to Railroads: From the Guide (see Guide for complete description). It is highly advisable to select aproperty that is at least 1,500 feet from a railroad track easement.
If the proposed site is within 1,500 feet of a railroad track easement, a safety study shall be done by acompetent professional trained in assessing cargo manifests, frequency, speed, and schedule of railroadtraffic, grade, curves, type and condition of track, need for sound or safety barriers, need for pedestrian and
vehicle safeguards at railroad crossing, presence of high pressure gas lines near the tracks that couldrupture in the event of a derailment, preparation of an evacuation plan. In addition to the analysis, possibleand reasonable mitigation measures must be identified.
Proximity to Pressurized Gas, Gasoline or Sewer Pipeline: The distances from these pressurized pipes aredetermined by the pipe size and pressure. A consultant is required to evaluate blast potential and other hazards ifthe property is near such pressurized pipelines. It is best if the property is not near pressurized gas, gasoline orsewer pipelines.
Proximity to Propane Tanks: Like pressurized pipes, it is best to avoid sites that are adjacent to propane tanks.
Noise: CDE is concerned with adjacent noise including industrial andlight industrial uses. Properties that havemore than 50 decibels at the property line should be avoided, asmitigation measures may be required.
Proximity to Major Roadways: While from above we want streets capable of handling the schools traffic, theCDE Guide does indicate "The site shall not be adjacent to a road or freeway that any site-related traffic and sound
level studies have determined will have safety problems or soundlevels which adversely affect the educationalprogram."
Geological Studies and Soils Analysis: Because the SMUHSD is adjacent to the San Francisco Bay, specialattention should be paid to soil characteristics to avoid soft bay mud or liquefiable soils. Mitigations for thesecan cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. A preliminary geotechnical report can easily access a propertys soilcharacteristics. Likewise careful consideration must be made for distances from known earthquake faults.
Safe Route to Schools: Sites without established and safe pedestrian paths of travel should be avoided.
CEQA Environmental Documentation

Given the limited information about the proposed project at any of the sites, the
scope of the environmental review under CEQA and the associated timeframes forpreparation of documentation cannot be determined at this time. Greater projectdetails, along with input from responsible public agencies and the public at-large,would be required to adequately ascertain the level of analysis,which could rangefrom a relatively simple categorical exemption to an Environmental Impact Report
(typically triggered when there are potentially significant and unmitigatedenvironmental effects resulting from a project). In addition, anumber of CDEGuideline topics (e.g., hazmat; geologic hazards; safe routes toschool) overlapissues that must be addressed as part of the CEQA evaluation.
Based upon the very preliminary drawings that have been provided, the followingscope of environmental review and approximate timeframes have been providedfor each option location:

If a primary intent for the project is replacement/reconstruction of existing facilities
to provide earthquake-resistant structures, and no potentially significantenvironmental impacts would result from the development, a categoricalexemption may meet CEQA requirements. A categorical exemption could beprepared within two to three days, followed by a 30-day public comment period.
Concerns associated with soil displacement were discussed as possible issues.Traffic and parking do not appear to be major concerns since many students woulduse public transit and traffic volumes appear to be low along local roadways. Inthe event that the project needs to address issues, CEQA documentation may
require at least a Negative Declaration, supported by an Initial Study, along withpossible geologic and biological studies and possible permits within the area of thewatercourse. Document preparation and processing could range from two monthsto a year or more.

Either of the two location options would probably require at least a Negative
Declaration, supported by an Initial Study. A parking lot with a new entry,requiring a curb cut, on Humboldt Street would be developed, which wouldpreclude the applicability of a categorical exemption. According to previouscontinuation school information, a total of 45 spaces for staff and 50 for studentswould be provided. As the responsible agency for local roadways, the City of San
Mateo would need to be contacted to discuss the scope of a possible traffic/parkingstudy and possible offsets, resulting from the removal of the existing bus parkingfacility, and an encroachment permit for the curb cut. Other issues may includenoise and visual effects depending upon the chosen layout alternative.
In the past, residents at the condominium development along the northernperimeter of the high school have been vocal about proposed development at thehigh school. The level of public concerns and involvement may have a bearing
upon the level of environmental review and documentation preparation andprocessing. The timeframe for completion of CEQA review could range from twoto three months to perhaps five to six months.

Either of the two location options would probably require at least a Negative
Declaration, supported by an Initial Study. The two-story building wing, shown inboth layouts, may pose a possible visual effect upon nearby residents. Sinceexisting parking areas already exist and streets appear to carry low volumes ofvehicles, a traffic study may not be required although the City of San Mateo shouldbe contacted to clarify this issue. Assuming that neither visual impacts or an
increase in traffic will pose significant issues, the CEQA document preparation andprocess could range from three to four months. The level of public concerns andinvolvement may have a bearing upon the level of environmental review anddocumentation preparation and processing.This could extend the CEQA timeline.
CEQA-Purchasing Land or Other Facility
7/29/2019 Smuhsd 3-7-13 Phs Study Session
42/56
41
Assuming that a suitable parcel of land or facility is acquired,either a Negative
Declaration, supported by an Initial Study, or an Environmental Impact Reportwould likely be needed to meet CEQA review requirements. However, the extentof issues that must be evaluated will vary with the specific site conditions andsurrounding land uses, which are currently unavailable. As stated in the LandAcquisitionPreferences, zoning will have to be considered. In addition, an
amendment to the local general plan may also be needed. Under state law, onlyfour amendments per year to a general plan are permitted.
Currently, lacking project location and design specifics, a timeestimate for the
completion of CEQA documentation and processing cannot be determined. ANegative Declaration, supported by an Initial Study could take as little as threemonths while an Environmental Impact Report would require seven months ormore.

52/56
51
The scope of CEQA documentation required for relocation of the District Office and InformationTechnology facilities to an existing commercial business park, in which four acres would be
needed, would depend on the site characteristics and surroundingsetting. On the one hand, if theexisting use characteristics (e.g., staffing levels, business hours; parking) of a site were similar tothe District Office functions and no potentially significant environmental issues or concerns (e.g.,hazmat, higher traffic volumes, cultural resources) are identified, a minimal evaluation may beneeded. On the other hand, issues such as increased traffic, greater parking needs, and potentialhazmat issues (especially if state funds were involved) would require more extensive review.
Another factor in determining the extent of the evaluation is also the baseline or existing conditionsat the time the CEQA review is initiated. If the proposed relocation site has been vacant, the analysiswill likely differ from a site that is currently occupied (e.g., new traffic would be added to localroadways under a vacant scenario vs. the likelihood of little difference under an existing usescenario).
Since relocation of District Office does not qualify under any of the categorical exemptions underCEQA, a Negative Declaration, supported by an Initial Study, would likely be the applicable andappropriate level of required documentation. Upon receipt of thebackground materials (e.g., design,operational parameters), the entire CEQA environmental review process would rangefrom about two and one-half to three months, including the 30-day review period, for an
environmental document in which less than significant effects are identified. In the event that anexpanded traffic analysis or other issues need to be addressed under a Negative Declaration, the timerequired could increase by 30 to 60 days. An Environmental Impact Report (EIR), whichwould take at least six to seven months to complete, is unlikely to be needed for location within anexisting commercial business park.

Maintenance and Operations
The scope of CEQA documentation required for relocation of the current Maintenance and
Operations facilities, which would include a Loading Dock, woulddepend on the sitecharacteristics and surrounding setting for an approximately two-acre property. Given thefunctions of current M,O&T facilities, a suitable location couldinclude an area with already
existing industrial uses. Resulting impacts associated with CEQA review could include, butmay not be limited to, potentially increased traffic (e.g., staffing and loading activities),possibly greater parking needs, presence of existing hazmat issues and the need to addressmanagement of hazmat at the new facilities, and possibly noise if sensitive land uses occurnear the property.
Unless the M,O&T is situated in proximity to such sensitive landuses or nearby roadintersections in which intersection thresholds of operation are exceeded during the a.m.traffic peak, the level of CEQA documentation would likely be a Negative Declaration,supported by an Initial Study, in which the timeframe for the review process would besimilar to the District Office facility.

The extent of CEQA documentation for relocation of the Bus Barn, to an approximately
one-acre site would again depend upon the site characteristics and surrounding settingalong with operational parameters (i.e., number of buses; do buses move in and out of thefacilities during the peak a.m. and p.m. traffic hours?). CEQA-related issues of concern
could include, but not be limited to, traffic, parking adequacy and noise if sensitive landuses occur nearby along with management of on-site fuels.
Like the M,O&T facilities, unless the Bus Barn is located in proximity to sensitive land
uses or road intersections in which intersection thresholds of operation are exceeded duringthe a.m. or p.m. traffic peak, the level of CEQA documentation would likely be a NegativeDeclaration, supported by an Initial Study, in which the timeframe for the review processwould be similar to the M,O&T facilities, discussed above.
