Cindi Alvitre SSent Via U.S. Mail Ti’At Society 6515 E. Seaside Walk, #C Long Beach, CA 90803 RE: Regional Connector Transit Corridor Project, City of Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, CA
Dear Ms. Alvitre:
SWCA Environmental Consultants has been retained to conduct a cultural resources survey for the Regional Connector Transit Corridor Project in the City of Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California. As part of the process of identifying cultural resources issues for this project, the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) was contacted by SWCA to conduct a Sacred Lands File search and to provide a list of Native American individuals and/or tribal organizations that may have knowledge of cultural resources in or near the project area. The NAHC search “did indicate the presence of Native American cultural resources in the project area,” and recommended that we consult with you directly regarding your knowledge of the presence of cultural resources that may be impacted by this project.
The Regional Connector Transit Corridor Project is a proposed transit infrastructure improvement project that would construct 1.8 miles of a new set of dual tracks in order to connect four vital travel corridors that stretch across 50 miles of Los Angeles County. The proposed project would directly link the 7th St./Metro Center Station (the Metro Blue Line and Metro Expo Line [2010] terminus) located at 7th and Figueroa Streets to the Little Tokyo/Arts District Station (a new Metro Gold Line Station opening in 2009) located at 1st and Alameda Streets. The project would include the construction of several new Metro stations in Downtown Los Angeles and would create direct trains between Long Beach and Pasadena, as well as East Los Angeles and Culver City. It would also provide passengers with direct trains into the heart of the business and civic districts. These improvements would provide regional benefits to people throughout Los Angeles County.
Metro will evaluate the following four (4) alternatives in a Draft Environmental Impact Statement/Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIS/DEIR):
� No Build (Baseline) � Transportation System Management (TSM) � At-Grade Emphasis LRT Alternative � Underground Emphasis LRT Alternative
Please refer to the enclosed project maps, Figure 2-2A (At-Grade Emphasis LRT Alternative Alignment and Configuration) and Figure 2-2B (Underground Emphasis LRT Alternative Alignment and Configuration) for an overview of the proposed alignments.
REGIONAL CONNECTOR TRANSIT CORRIDOR PROJECT 2
Ground disturbing construction activities associated with the at-grade portions of the At-Grade Emphasis LRT Alternative are anticipated to a maximum depth of 20 feet below grade. Ground disturbing activities for the underground portions of the At-Grade Emphasis LRT Alternative and the Underground LRT Alternative are anticipated to an approximate maximum depth of 100 feet below grade.
Archaeological and Built-Environment Survey Reports are being prepared by our technical staff, however, we acknowledge that some areas may contain values not readily apparent and would appreciate any such information you can provide. Please notify us in writing, if you have information on potential or identified cultural resources in the project study area by no later than close of business, TThursday, April 30, 2009. If we do not receive a response, we will follow up to ensure receipt of the letter. Please contact me with any applicable comments:
