Chapter 3 Comments and Coordination Views of the proposed project from residences within the southern area of Carpinteria, specifically the additional HOV lanes, could incrementally affect the existing community character potentially through an increased sense of urbanization surrounding the community. Additionally, the proposed soundwalls within southern area of Carpinteria along the roadside, while abating traffic noise levels, would create a defined ‘barrier’ between the northern part of the community and the roadway, incrementally changing the community character. Moreover, inclusion of soundwalls would block existing limited ocean views. The linear nature of the proposed project would incrementally increase the sense of urbanization surrounding all affected communities within the project area. Implementation of the proposed project would not cause potentially high and adverse aesthetic and community character impacts to minority populations within the southern area of Carpinteria because similar impacts resulting from soundwalls would occur in La Conchita; therefore, these impacts would not be considered disproportional. No additional regional or community-level impacts would occur. Avoidance, Minimization and/or Mitigation Measures Based on the above discussion and analysis, the proposed project would not potentially cause disproportionately high and adverse impacts to the southern area of Carpinteria, which is considered to be a minority population, with the implementation of soundwalls from either of the alternatives. The recommendation on noise abatement measures is made by the Departmen, the project proponent; however, an avoidance measure can be considered from the results of the reasonableness determination and information collected during the public input process. The opinions of affected property owners would be considered in reaching a final decision on the noise abatement measures to be provided. Noise abatement within state right-of-way would not be provided if more than 50 percent of the affected property owners do not want it. Provision of offsetting benefits and opportunities to enhance communities would also be considered. Such views would be carefully considered when mitigation strategies are developed to minimize the potential impacts. The Department’s staff would participate as needed in meetings with neighborhood associations, residents and property owners from the outset of project planning and would continue to participate in these meetings through the environmental review process. Consistent with Federal Highway Administration Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Population and Low-Income Populations, the project would be carried out only if “further mitigation measures or alternatives that would avoid or reduce the IS/EA VEN-SB US101 HOV Project 63
