The subject property is undergoing study for commercial development. A cultural resources assessment was necessary to, satisfy the requirements of the City of Newport Beach Planning Department. An archaeological records check and survey were undertaken in October 1997, for the approximately 4 acre study area located on the Laguna Beach'7.S USGS quadrangle, to ascertain whether any cultural resources might be impacted by•theproposed development. A surface survey conducted on the subject property and'a check of the archaeological. site records on file at the Archaeological Information Center, University of California,, Los Angeles, were accomplished. A 40-scale map of the subject property provided the boundary reference for the actual land area surveyed. The property is located along the west side of Avocado Avenue between Harbor View Drive to the.south and Farallon Drive to the north.. The'property is divided into two unequal parcels by an access road off of Avocado and each section is bordered with hedges and partially sown with grass. Archaeological records search, activities indicate that the property had not been formally surveyed and no archaeological sites have been previously -identified. SUMMARY OF CURRENT KNOWLEDGE: A review ofthe,archaeological site records on file.at U,C.L.'A, showed no archaeological sites on the property. Although th'ere.are numerous sites relatively near,the project, all are too distant to 4 be impacted by development. Considering the topography and proximity of the subject parcel to water, site density may be expected to be moderate to high similar to topographic -areas which have been surveyed nearby. Based on settlement/subsistence models generated for the 'region, only temporary food gathering/processing activity sites, might be expected on the subject project (Prichett and McIntyre 1979). 1 The prehistory of coastal southern California has been outlined by a number of authors who seem to agree on, at.least four major prehistoric periods -.(Wallace 1955- Moriarity 1966 and Warren 1968). These four sequential.periods of time, sometimes -called Horizons and sometimes Traditions, are each characterized by time -sensitive artifacts. The periods then are not arbitrary, .but reflect material -cultural changes at those times. Horizon I Due to the time elapsed and the nature of small hunter -collector -bands, the -upper •Pleistocene 1 and lower Holocene occupations of southern California are most difficult to characterize. There is no radiometric evidence to substantiate upper Pleistocene occupation of southern California. The ' Laguna Woman skull recovered in, 1937.in'Laguna:Beach was dated at 17,150t1470 years while a ' date of>23,600 years was obtaitied from the "Los Angeles Man" remains from Baldwin Hills in 1936 (Berger et al. 1971). These early finds were, unfortunately, isolated from any other evidence.of material culture and have since been shown to have;been inaccurate. The•closest finds.ofthe Early Cultures Tradition to yield information regarding material culture is recognized to be distributed in. San Diego County, The Colorado Desert, and Sonoran Desert of Arizona where it was first described by Rogers (1939) and called San Dieguito. The type site of the San Dieguito culture from which Imo, �1 5 1 most of the available information has been derived is located near Del Mar, California in the San Dieguito River Drainage. Dateg from this site range between 8,490f400 B.P. and 9,030f400 B.P. were recovered during a reinvestigation of the site, Warren (1966). To the north in Redondo Beach, the site ofIvlalaga Cove contained a long stratigraphic sequence beginning with material's.which may have been coeval to San Dieguito.and ending with a European contact aboriginal site (Walker 1951). While no radiocarbon determinations were available' for its lowest components, the lack of millingstone and presence of crude„ percussion lithic technology suggests similarities with San Dieguito manifestations further• south. The lower beds of Malaga'Cove produced'an interesting array offaunal• material suggesting an intensive use of the littoral environment not reflected in San Dieguito remains. Aside from numerous'shellfish, the •faunal ' assemblage included fish, fourteen species ofbirds, sea otter, sea lion, seal, rabbit, porpoise, deer,' coyote and badger (Walker as well a marine littoral fauna 195-1•:43): The concept of San Dieguito was eventually refined into a complex by Warren which, is 1 postulated as being "...an•earlygeneralized •hunting tradition" (1§67:184); the complex was defined 1 as including: I leaf -shaped knives of several varieties; small .leaf -shaped points; -stemmed and shouldered points generally termed "Lake Mohave" and "Silver Lake" points; ovoid, large domed, and rectangular.end and side scrapers; engraving tools,• and crescents (196TI77). Aside from the San Dieguito type site, the Early Cultures period, suggests that an already specialized exploitation of marine and littoral resources•existed prior to 7,000 years ago. Horizon II 1 The next period is termed "Millingstone" or "Encinitas""by Wallace (1.955) and Warren (1968) ' respectively. The Millingstone Horizon. or•Endinitas Tradition are very similar as described by each L 1 6 author and have a time span beginning about 7-8;000 B.P. and ending between 3-4,000 B.P. This cultural period consists of cultural changes which may have been brought about by the onset of Holocene climatic; changes. An increased dependence'on plant foods is reflected by processing tools ' like manos and metates. Projectiles,'are 'rare; but; when found, suggest the use of the atlatl or throwing stick, This period is longer -lived the farther one travels south from Los Angeles. 1 Horizon III The third period known, as the "Intermediate Horizon" or "Campbell Tradition" by Wallace ' (1955) and Warren (1968) respectively is strongly represented in the Los Angeles region and only Isuggested for the San Diego area. This period. is characterized by numerous small projectile points, suggesting increased hunting and the introduction of the use of the bow and arrow. It is during this ' period that true maritime exploitation and occupation of the Channel Islands flourishes (Meighan ' 1959). The duration of this period is roughly 3-I,000 B.P. - Horizon IV 1 The final prehistoric period begins about 1,000 B.P. and ends upon the arrival of Europeans, Iwhich, for Los Angeles County, would be the overland exploratiorr of Portola' in 1769. The proto historic groups'eontinue to expand the broa&based subsistence,patterris which had begun during previous periods, After, the arrival .of the Spanish, native groups were referred to by the •names. of the ' Spanish Missions nearest their linguistic group. Hence the linguistic dialect nearest Mission San Diego became known as Diegueno, those near San Luis Rey became Luiseffo, those near San Juan Capistrano became Juaneho and.those-near San Gabriel became Gabrielino. The inhabitants of the general project area'are likely to'have been the. Serrano a Spanish word reflecting, "mountaineers", or people of the mountains. Localized variants of each ofthese -prehistoric periods have been described II I 1 7 1 7 7 1 I J �I elsewhere, however, the present description is designed only to provide background for this study: EFFECTIVE ENVIRONMENT: The physiography of the subject property consists of gently sloping marine terrace, with considerable evidence of landscaping, grading and similar soil disturbances over the entire property. Precipitation Is mainly a result of winter dominant; frontal storms, from' the northwest, although occasional summer thundershowers result from damp air intruding from the southern (Gulf ofMexico--Sea of Cortez) monsoon season. The property ranges from 117 to f55 feet above. sea level. There is no_ native vegetation still living onthe property community. However, it is.likely that a sage -scrub community, dominated by California sagebrush-(Artemisia californical, lemonade berry (Rhus inte ng 'folia), black sage (Salvia melifera) and white sage(Salvia apiana)-once characterized this parcel, The above.mentioned native plant community is likely to have •had many ethnographic uses among the Gabrielino for food, medicine and manufacturing materials (of. Bean and Saubel 1972). RESEARCH METHODS. AND STRATEGY: Field -methods consisted of an archival study of the -archaeological records compiled at the Archaeological Information Center, University of California, Los Angeles and an intuitive field - survey conducted in October,1997. Conditions for observation were somewhat hampered by a dense, mat of introduced Bermuda grass. It 'is estimated that as much as 75%-of the surface soils was obscured by the thick covering. Archaeologist David Smith visited the property in -October and conducted a casual survey of the property. Walking roughly 10 meter east -west transects, the -entire I 1 s property was covered from the southern boundary northward. Since large areas of surface soils were ' entirely obscured by dense -matted vegetation the surveyor frequently had to rely on the occasional bare spot orrodent burrow for observation. In this manner, it is estimated that approximately 25% of the surface of the property was visible for scrutiny. ' RESULTS AND RVIPACTS: The results ,of the field survey failed to yield substantial .evidence that a site exists on, the ' subject property. But, there is evidence on the property, to suggest some form of prehistoric deposit . 1 is linked to the property. The defining characteristics of a prehistoric site•forthe area would be at least three or more manufactured artifacts or waste material resulting from stone -tool manufacture, ' a midden, or thrash deposit or, a uon-portable assemblage of stones or other materials(e.g. fire hearths, stone structures, etc.). However, even; in the absence of formal artifact classes on the site, there is a suggestion that numerous shellfish noted during the survey are culturally derived. The shellfish noted consist of three species common.to the coastal regions'of Southem �California:.Chione Pecten sue..,'and'Donax•W. These shellfish thrive along, the• coast today and occur frequently in I archaeological middens all along.the coast of Southern California. Although the shells themselves would not necessarily qualify as a site per se, they are evidence of the possible existenceof an unrecorded site. It is the opinion of the surveyor that the, shells represent the edge -of another site very near the property, now almost certainly destroyed or, are simply the last vestiges of a site on this ' property that too, was greatly disturbed or destroyed entirely during early development. I 1 9 MITIGATION: The lack of significant.artifacts on the site does not preclude the existence of a site' that may -be obscured by the dense grass cover over most .of -the property. It does negate the need for field testing or other mitigation until such time that sufficient evidence.is discovered to -formally record a site on the property. Since the grasses on the property' could be obscuring other, more significant cultural artifacts that would further define the cultural remains noted on the property, it is imperative that a trained archaeological observer be present during the initial grading activities when they occur. If more evidence for a site is discovered at -that time, a qualified archaeologist must record and evaluate the site accordingly. I REFERENCES CITED 1 Bean, Lowell J., and Katherine, S.

AREA ENTITLEMENT ALLOCATED TO "BLOCK O", CORPORATE PLAZA The attached Area Development Matrix and Exhibit A reflects the current area built -out for the development done by our office in October of 1993. This was the result of a study done in cooperation with the City of Newport Beach Planning Department to inventory the development. Additionally, we have updated the matrix with the proposed area of Buildings 8 and 9. The proposed buildings will use the remaining entitlement of 79,847 S.F. currently available. 2. PROPOSED PARKING Corporate Plaza is a planned community development that utilizes the pool -parking concept. Parking is based on net floor area as defined in the Planned Community Text. For the first 125,000 N.S.F., the parking requirement is i per 250 N.S.F., from 125,000 N.S.F. to 425,000 N.S.F., the parking requirement is 1 per 300 N.S.F., and for an area over 425,000 N.S.F., the parking requirement is 1 per 350 N.S.F. The Area Development Matrix illustrates that the proposed buildings will bring the square footage up to 432,320 S.F. The Parking Matrix and Exhibit B reflect the current parking count for the entire development. This was the result of the same study mentioned in Item 1.

The items reviewed for substantial conformance included only those which can be seen by simple visual observation, i.e. irrigation head placement and plant material quantities. Verification of items such as Irrigation coverage, underground improvements, concrete reinforcing, subsurface conditions, identification of actual or potential drainage and/or erosion problems, (with the exception of existing conditions which could easily be observed), could not be verified for substantial conformance by Burton Associates. Items not included in Burton Associates scope of work were not under consideration for substantial conformance. This substantial conformance letter does not pertain to the landscape contractor's completion of contractual obligations, or completion of punch list items.

Langenwalter II This document reports the results of paleontological grading monitoring for the construction at the Corporate Plaza, Phase 1 property. Paleontological monitoring during construction was undertaken because of the presence of fossils discovered during the initial paleontological assessment of the property, and potential for the discovery of significant paleontological resources occurring in the Marine Terrace Deposits during construction (see Langenwalter 1997). The study property is located on Newport Mesa, east of Newport Bay, and north of the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Mac Arthur Boulevard (Figure 1). The property occurs in the NW 1/4 of Section 96 located in Townships 6 South, Range 10 West. The northern edge of the property is bounded by Farallon Drive, and the southeastern edge by Avocado Avenue. The remaining perimeter is bounded by a fire lane on the southern edge of the existing Corporate Plaza buildings. The process of mitigation for the project entailed the on -site monitoring of grading activities. New cuts were selectively inspected as exposed to determine if more than minor impacts to paleontological resources would occur, and if so, if potentially significant resources were present in the impact zone. Visits were made to the property on the first day of grading (January 6), and on the sixth day (January 13). Samples, taken at random throughout the grading area, were inspected. Inspection of open cuts on the property indicate that no paleontological resources are being impacted. Those specimens encountered in the backdirt from the geotechnical testing activity were apparently derived from strata located too deep to be impacted by the planned grading activity. Therefore, I . .. Figure 1.

Langenwalter 11 Prepared by HERITAGE RESOURCE CONSULTANTS P.O. Box 1674 La Mirada, California 90637 Prepared for THE KEITH COMPANIES 2955 Red Hill Avenue Costa Mesa, CA 92626 HRC Project 308 October 1997 INTRODUCTION A study of the approximately 4.9 acre Corporate Plaza, Phase 1 property was conducted by Heritage Resource Consultants to evaluate paleontological resources on the property. This study was commissioned by The Keith Companies in preparation for planned development. The study was performed in conformance with the requirements of the County of Orange and Appendix K of the California Environmental Quality Act. The goals of the project were to determine the paleontological sensitivity of the geologic formations on the property, identify the kinds and significance of paleontological resources in them, and to make recommendations for the conservation of such resources if they are subject to future impacts through development. PROJECT LOCATION AND SETTING The study property is located on Newport Mesa, east of Newport Bay, and north of the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Mac Arthur Boulevard (Figure 1). The property occurs in the NW 1/4 of Section 96 located in Townships 6 South, Range 10 West. The northern edge of the property is bounded by Farallon Drive, and the southeastern edge by Avocado Avenue. The remaining perimeter is bounded by a fire lane on the southern edge of the existing Corporate Plaza buildings. The study property consists of two vacant pads which have been previously graded. They are separated by an existing fire lane. At present, each pad is surrounded by a hedge. The Figure 1. Location of Corporate Plaza, Phase 1, Newport, California. southwestern most pad is rectangular. It is referred to as the lower pad in this report. The eastern, or upper pad, has an irregular perimeter. METHODS The methods used in this study included: 1) review of the records of known paleontological localities in the region, 2) a survey of paleontological and geological publications for the project 9 region, and 3) a survey of the property. A record check was obtained from the Section of Vertebrate Paleontology at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County. The literature survey consisted of a review of the professional literature pertaining to the project region. Geologic maps of the region were consulted and analyzed to make initial estimations of the potential for paleontologic resources on the property and for the purpose of planning field studies. The field survey included a walkover and surface examination of the property. Much of the ground surface is presently obscured by dried grasses, and patches of low growing plant cover. Tailings from the geotechnical test trenches, borings, and selected animal burrow tailings were examined in an effort to locate fossils. The study property contains two geologic units that underlay and outcrop on the property (Morton and Miller 1981; also Rogers 1965; Karimi and Wright 1997). Artificial fill has been added to the southern part of the lower pad (Karimi and Wright 1997:5, Figure 2). The following discussion provides basic information about the nature of each of the major lithologic units, their ages, location on the property and fossil bearing potential, 4 Monterey Formation The Monterey Formation is composed of sediments of marine origin. These consist of "white to yellowish -grey tuffaceous and diatomaceous platy shale and siltstone" (Morton and Miller 1981). There are local interbeds of calcarious sandstone, sandy limestone and travertine. The Monterey Formation underlies the lower pad at a depth of 10 to 15 feet, but is much shallower on the upper pad, occurring at a depth of 0.5 to 2 feet (Karimi and Wright 1997:Appendix B). The facies on the property consist of "fractured interbedded sandstone, siltstone, and clayey siltstone" (Karimi and Wright 1997:5). The formation is considered to be Middle to Late Miocene in age based on faunal correlation using foraminifera (for a discussion, see Schoellhamer, Vedder, Yerkes, and Mc Kinney 1981:42). Plant, invertebrate and vertebrate remains have been reported from these beds. Marine Terrace Deposits Marine Terrace Deposits occur at several levels along the edge of the San Joaquin Hills and on Newport Mesa. These occur as the result of changing sea levels during the Pleistocene. The terrace deposits located on the Newport Mesa consist of sediments laying on a wave -cut bench that remain. The sediments on this bench consist of poorly sorted, poorly to moderately consolidated sands. These are light -brown to yellowish -brown in color. The sands contain silts, and granules to cobble -sized clasts (cf. Morton and Miller 1981). The Terrace Deposits outcrop on the lower pad. These consist of brown, red -brown, tan or mottled light grey sands, with 0 varying amounts of silt and clay (Karimi and Wright 1997:5). Marine Terrace Deposits occur on the lower pad just below ground surface, extending to a depth of 10 to 15 feet, except in the western half which is covered by as much as seven feet of artificial fill (Karimi and Wright 1997:5, Figure 2, Appendix B). A thin veneer of Marine Terrace Deposit, or fill derived from these sediments, occurs over the western third of the upper pad. The terraces in the study area, including the one on the study property, are estimated to range from 80,000 to 125,000 years of age (Pleistocene)(cf. Kern 1977). These deposits are locally fossiliferous, containing the remains of invertebrate and vertebrate fossils. RESULTS The search of the paleontological files and records held by the Section of Vertebrate Paleontology at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (McLeod 1997) indicate that no previously recorded vertebrate paleontological localities registered in their system occur on the study property. However, vertebrate and invertebrate paleontological localities occur within the area. The geological literature for the study region indicates that numerous paleontological resources are known from the vicinity Newport Mesa area (e.g. Bruff 1946; Kanakoff and Emerson 1959; Miller 1971). Paleontological remains have been collected from the Monterey Formation and Marine Terrace Deposits in the area for more than a half century. 0 The Monterey Formation has produced a wide variety of paleontologic resources. Various plant remains, invertebrates (clams, snails) and vertebrates (bony fishes, sharks, whales, etc.) have been recovered from the Monterey Formation (Savage and Barnes 1972; Barnes 1976; Cooper and Sundberg 1976). The depositional environment of the Monterey Formation sediment has allowed the preservation of an abundance of fossil remains. The formation has the potential to produce resources that could provide information about the faunal and floral succession, paleobiology of species, biostratigraphy and paleoenvironment for the period of deposition. Since the Monterey Formation sediments occurred below surface over most of the property, they could not be effectively evaluated for local sensitivity. However, fragments of siltstone from the test trenches located on the eastern half of the upper pad, did contain traces of paleontological remains (fish scale fragments). Recent grading within half a mile of the study property has yielded 'isolated fossil whale remains. Regional marine sediments deposited during the Pleistocene have produced abundant invertebrate and vertebrate remains over a wide area (see Kennedy 1975; Langenwalter 1975). Some of the Orange County localities occur on Newport Mesa, and around the edges of Newport Bay in Costa Mesa, Newport, and Corona Del Mar (Bruff 1946; Kanakoff and Emerson 1959; Miller 1971; Cooper 1978, 1980). Ordinarily these sediments are classified as having moderate to high paleontological sensitivity. Examination of the sediments on the study property resulted in the discovery of numerous molluscan remains. These included several species of clam (Donax and Amiantis), and snail (c.f. Polinices). Preservation of specimens varied from poor to excellent. Fossil remains from the Marine Terrace Deposits were observed on the eastern half of the lower pad, and the western half of the upper pad (see also Karimi and Wright 1997:Appendix B, Log B- 2). Fossils in this unit do have the potential to provide significant information about biostratigraphy, dating and paleoenvironment. RECODZMENDATIONS The following plan of mitigation is recommended for the Corporate Plaza, Phase 1 property based on the potential for the occurrence of paleontological resources on the study property. There is abundant evidence of paleontological resources on the study property, and it indicates that more resources are located in sub -surface deposits that will be exposed and impacted during development. Given the assessed potential for paleontologic resources on the property, including the documented presence of abundant fossil remains on the property, paleontological monitoring of grading should be required. Monitoring should occur on a half-time to full-time basis, at the discretion of the supervising paleontologist. None of the paleontological resources discovered during the current study require excavation or other recovery prior to development of the property. Fossils found by the owners of the property, their agents, contractors, or subcontractors during N the development of the property, should be reported immediately to the paleontological monitor. If significant fossils (those having potential to increase scientific knowledge; including all identifiable vertebrate remains) are encountered on the property during development, the following mitigation procedures should be followed: 1. The paleontologist retained for the project should immediately evaluate the fossils which have been discovered to determine if they are significant and, if so, to develop a plan to collect and study them for the purpose of mitigation. 2. The paleontologic monitor must be empowered to temporarily halt or redirect excavation equipment if fossils are found to allow evaluation and removal of them if necessary. The monitor should be equipped to speedily collect specimens if they are encountered. 3. The monitor, with assistance if necessary, should collect individual fossils and/or samples of fossil -bearing sediments. If specimens of small animal species are encountered, the most time and cost efficient method of recovery is to remove a selected volume of fossil bearing earth from the grading area and screen wash it off -site. 4. Fossils recovered during earthmoving or as a result of screen -washing of sediment samples should be cleaned and prepared sufficiently to allow identification. This allows the fossils to be described in a report of findings and reduces the volume of matrix around specimens 0 prior to storage, thus reducing storage costs. 5. A report of findings should be prepared and submitted to the public agency responsible for overseeing developments and mitigation of environmental impacts upon completion of mitigation. This report would minimally include a statement of the types of paleontologic resources found, the methods and procedures used to recover them, an inventory of the specimens recovered, and a statement of their scientific significance. 6. The paleontological specimens recovered as a result of mitigation should be donated to a qualified scientific institution where they would be afforded long term preservation to allow future scientific study. io LITERATURE CITED Barnes, L.
