Partner performed a Phase II Subsurface Investigation Report (Phase II) for the Site, dated July 18, 2023, on behalf of Kelemen Company, to evaluate the potential impact of petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), PCBs, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), herbicides, metals, methane, and/or hydrogen sulfide (H2S) to soil and/or soil gas as a consequence of a release or releases from the onsite operations and oil production activities in the Site vicinity. None of the analyzed soil samples containedTPH, VOCs, PCBs, PAHs, and/or chlorinated herbicides above applicable screening criteria.Arsenic was detected in one of the analyzed soil samples (B13-5) at a concentration of 17 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg), which exceeds the background concentration of 12 mg/kg. None of the remaining metals were detected in the analyzed soil samples exceeding commercial/industrial screening levels and typical background concentrations for California soil.
Partner conducted an Additional Subsurface Investigation, dated October 13, 2023, at the Site to further evaluate the extent of VOC and/or arsenic impacts to soil and/or soil gas. PCE was detected in the analyzed soil gas samples at concentrations exceeding the commercial/industrial screening level. The previously detected benzene impacts in soil gas appear to be limited in nature and are not expected to represent a concern to the environment at this time. The PCE impacts appear to decrease to the east, south, and west of previous boring B3 and appear to be similar to the north of previous boring B3 in boring B22. PCE impacts also extend to at least 20 feet bgs in the vicinity of boring B3. The vertical extent and extent of PCE impacts to the north of previous boring B3and boring B22 are unknown. These detections indicate that there is a potential that the soil gas exceedances are a result of an on-site release rather than an off-site release. Based on the lack of vertical characterization of the PCE impacts, Partner recommended additional investigation to further evaluate the known PCE impacts in soil gas at the Site.
On January 19, 2024, ABC advanced four borings to a terminal depth of 15 feet bgs using the direct push rig. At boring location B36, ABC cored the surface with a concrete coring machine. The asphalt slab was approximately 4 inches thick.

Two soil gas samples were collected on January 25, 2024, and transported to Jones Environmental, Inc. (JEI), a state-certified laboratory (SWRCB ELAP Certificate number 2882) in Santa Fe Springs, California to be analyzed for VOCs in accordance with EPA Method 8260B. Each soil gas probe was allowed to equilibrate for at least 48 hours prior to purging and sampling.

Based on the results of this investigation, Partner concludes that the subsurface has been impacted with VOCs, in part, from an on-Site release. It is Partner’s understanding that the Site will be redeveloped for commercial use in the future. Partner recommends remediating the subsurface VOC impacts at the Site to mitigate the risk of vapor intrusion in the future redevelopment and reduce groundwater impacts. https://cms3.revize.com/revize/huntingtonbeachca/Appendix_D-3_HRSC_Investigation_Report_FINAL_02_22_2024.pdf?t=202511061028520&t=202511061028520
Apparently, the Notice of Intent was published in Orange County Register, has anyone seen this, have a copy or link? A 20-day public review period, in accordance with Section 15073 of the State CEQA Guidelines, has been established for the IS/MND beginning on November 3, 2025 and ending on November 24, 2025. During review of the IS/MND, affected public agencies and the interested public should focus on the document’s adequacy in identifying and analyzing the potential environmental impacts and the ways in which the potentially significant effects of the Project can be avoided or mitigated. Comments on the IS/MND and the analysis contained herein must be received by 5:00 PM on November 24, 2025 https://cms3.revize.com/revize/huntingtonbeachca/Draft%20IS%20MND_7600%20Redondo-110525.pdf?t=202511061022200&t=202511061022200
Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) for the 7600 Redondo Circle Industrial Project (Project) in compliance with Section 15070 to 15075 of the State CEQA Guidelines. The IS/MND discloses potential environmental impacts associated with the proposed Project and recommends mitigation measures to reduce any identified impacts to less than significant levels. The IS/MND will be available for public review and comment for a 20-day review period. Ending 12/1/2025 Did you get this notice? https://cms3.revize.com/revize/huntingtonbeachca/NOA_PUBLIC%20NOTICE%207600%20Redondo%20Circle_NOI_110425_Final.pdf?t=202511061021250&t=202511061021250
The comments on record after the initial NOI included one from the City of Huntington Beach, Planning Commissioner, Brian Thienes (BT)—November 20, 2025 .... The commenter indicates that the “Environmental Impact Report” should consider the proximity of the proposed Project to the existing residential properties to the south. The commenter adds that maintaining the existing masonry wall along the south property line will not provide sufficient screening and sound protection to the residential neighborhood to the South. A reference is made to other agencies’ requirements for a 14-foot-tall screen wall between industrial uses and residential uses. The comment concludes that a 14-foot screen wall should be constructed along the south property line and set back from the ultimate right-of-way for Taylor Drive to meet the current zoning building setback, which in their opinion is 10 feet....

Responses to Comments on Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration - Were you properly notified or comments recorded? the commenters assert that based on their review of the IS/MND, there is substantial evidence to support that the Project may have significant impacts on the environment related to hazardous materials, air quality, and GHG emissions. Therefore, Baseline recommends that the City prepare an EIR to evaluate and mitigate the environmental concerns described above. https://cms3.revize.com/revize/huntingtonbeachca/Final%20RTC%20for%20Redondo%20Circle_010626.pdf?t=202602271616030&t=202602271616030
