PUBLIC STORAGE REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program 1
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared for use in implementing
mitigation for the:
Public Storage Redevelopment Project
MCN 22-063, DR 22-033, CUP 23-002
The program has been prepared in compliance with State law and the Mitigated Negative Declaration
(MND) prepared for the project by the City of Fontana (City).
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires adoption of a reporting or monitoring
program for those measures placed on a project to mitigate or avoid significant effects on the
environment (Public Resource Code Section 21081.6). The law states the reporting or monitoring
program shall be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation.
The monitoring program contains the following elements:
1) The mitigation measures are recorded with the action and procedure necessary to ensure
compliance. In some instances, one action may be used to verify implementation of several
mitigation measures.
2) A procedure for compliance and verification has been outlined for each action necessary. This
procedure designates who will take action, what action will be taken and when, and to whom and
when compliance will be reported.
3) The program has been designed to be flexible. As monitoring progresses, changes to compliance
procedures may be necessary based upon recommendations by those responsible for the
program. As changes are made, new monitoring compliance procedures and records will be
developed and incorporated into the program.
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program includes mitigation identified in the MND.
MITIGATION MONITORING AND RESPONSIBILITIES
As the Lead Agency, the City is responsible for ensuring full compliance with the mitigation measures
adopted for the proposed project. The City will monitor and report on all mitigation activities.
Mitigation measures will be implemented at different stages of development throughout the project
site. In this regard, the responsibilities for implementation have been assigned to the Applicant,
Contractor, or a combination thereof. If, during the course of project implementation, any of the
mitigation measures identified herein cannot be successfully implemented, the City shall be
immediately informed, and the City will then inform any affected responsible agencies. The City, in
conjunction with any affected responsible agencies, will then determine if modification to the project
is required and/or whether alternative mitigation is appropriate.
STANDARD CONDITIONS
Standard Conditions are presented in instances where the proposed project would not create a
significant impact but would be required to adhere to regulatory requirements in order to ensure
impacts do not become significant. Standard Conditions outline compliance with various federal,
State, and/or local acts, laws, rules, regulations, municipal codes, policies, etc.

(February 15 to August 31), a pre-construction nesting
survey shall be conducted by a qualified biologist (Project
Biologist) within 72 hours prior to start of work pursuant to
Sections 3503–3801 of the California Fish and Game Code.
If the survey indicates nesting birds are present, an
appropriate buffer to be established by the Project Biologist
shall be marked off around the nest(s), and no demolition or
construction activity shall occur in that area during nesting
activities. Demolition and/or construction may resume
within the established buffer when the Project Biologist
determines the nest is no longer occupied and all juveniles
have left the nest. This measure shall be implemented to the
satisfaction of the City of Fontana Community Development
Director or designee.

issuance of demolition or grading permits, that the
approved plans require that the construction contractor
shall implement the following mitigation measures during
project construction activities to ensure that damage does
not occur at surrounding structures:
• Identify structures that are located within 15 feet
of heavy construction activities and that have the
potential to be affected by ground-borne
vibration. This task shall be conducted by a

• Once the construction equipment list is finalized,
a comparison of the proposed equipment to be
used and the assumed equipment vibration levels
presented in Table 7-4 of the Federal Transit
Administration Noise and Vibration Impact
Assessment Manual – FTA Report No. 0123 shall
be completed. If it is determined that the
proposed equipment would not generate
vibration levels that could exceed the FTA Damage
Criteria presented in Table 7-5 of the Federal
Transit Administration Noise and Vibration Impact
Assessment Manual – FTA Report No. 0123,
further vibration mitigation would not be
necessary. However, if levels would potentially
exceed the FTA Damage Criteria presented in

a vibration monitoring and construction
contingency plan for approval by the City Director
of Community Development, or designee, to
identify structures where monitoring would be
conducted; set up a vibration monitoring
schedule; define structure-specific vibration
limits; and address the need to conduct photo,
elevation, and crack surveys to document before
and after construction conditions. Construction
contingencies would be identified for when
vibration levels approached the limits.
