11 Mitigation Feasible Mitigation Measures Available to Reduce Emissions According to CEQA Guidelines § 15096(g)(2), the DEIR is required under CEQA to implement all feasible mitigation to reduce the Project’s potential impacts. As noted above, the Project may result in potentially significant GHG impacts that should be mitigated further. To reduce the GHG emissions associated with the Project, we recommend several mitigation measures (see list below). The Southern California Association of Governments (“SCAG”)’s 2020 RTP/SCS Program Environmental Impact Report (“PEIR”) Greenhouse Gas Project Level Mitigation Measures (“PMM-GHG-1”) recommends: • Measures that encourage transit use, carpooling, bike-share and car-share programs, active transportation, and parking strategies, including, but not limited to the following: o Promote transit-active transportation coordinated strategies, o Increase bicycle carrying capacity on transit and rail vehicles, o Improve or increase access to transit, o Increase access to common goods and services, such as groceries, schools, and day care, o Incorporate the neighborhood electric vehicle network, o Orient the project toward transit, bicycle and pedestrian facilities, o Improve pedestrian or bicycle networks, or transit service, o Provide traffic calming measures, o Limit or eliminate park supply, o Provide parking cash-out programs, and o Implement or provide access to commute reduction program. • Improving transit access to rail and bus routes by incentives for construction and transit facilities within developments, and/or providing dedicated shuttle service to transit stations. • Designate a percentage of parking spaces for ride-sharing vehicles or high-occupancy vehicles, and provide adequate passenger loading and unloading for those vehicles. • Require at least five percent of all vehicle parking spaces include electric vehicle charging stations, or at a minimum, require the appropriate infrastructure to facilitate sufficient electric charging for passenger vehicles and trucks to plug-in. • Implement preferential parking permit program. • Encourage telecommuting and alternative work schedules, such as: o Staggered starting times, o Flexible schedules, and o Compressed work weeks. • Implement commute trip reduction marketing, such as: o New employee orientation of trip reduction and alternative mode options, o Event promotions, and o Publications. • Price workplace parking, such as: o Explicitly charging for parking for its employees,
