This Scope of Work is for a focused EIR on the proposed Legaspi Plaza Hotel project as generally described in the initial study, dated November 17, 1983 and project plans reviewed by ESA on November 21, 1983. The proposed environmental impact analyses will concentrate on issues determined to be of greatest importance to the agencies, groups and individuals interested in the project. Where significant adverse impacts are likely to occur, appropriate mitigation measures to avoid or reduce these impacts will be identified. The Scope of Work reflects a preliminary analysis of the project's potential for environmental impact. The Scope is based on a review of the initial study, a site visit, previous experience in preparing environmental documentation for projects in the Anza and Bayfront areas, and conversations with City staff and project architects. ESA understands that a public forum will be held early in the work period. Issues raised at this forum and in any responses to the Notice of Preparation, but not discussed below, may be addressed in the EIR under a contract modification. Should detailed engineering analyses of airport noise, aeronautic safety, levee stability, flood control, or foundation stability be required, they would also be included under contract modifications or separate contracts.
