Research
(OPR),
a
program
for
monitoring
the
implementation
of
mitigation
measures
should
contain
at
a
minimum
the
following
components:
1.
2.
A
list
of
the
mitigation
measures
or
revisions
and
related
conditions
of
approval,
which
have
been
adopted
for
the
project
by
the
agency;
A
schedule
for
regularly
checking
on
the
project’s
compliance
with
the
mitigation
measures,
including
progress
toward
meeting
specified
standards,
if
any.
Timing
is
generally
tied
to
permit
conditions
or
specific
phase
of
the
project,
e.g.,
prior
to
issuance
of
a
grading
permit;
prior
to
occupancy
permit;
during
construction,
etc.
A
means
of
recording
compliance
at
the
time
of
each
check;
A
statement
assigning
responsibility
for
monitoring
implementation
of
the
mitigation
measures
and
related
conditions
of
approval
to
specific
persons
or
agencies,
public
or
private;
If
monitoring
duties
are
contracted
to
private
individuals
or
firms,
provisions
for
ensuring
that
monitoring
reflects
the
independent
judgment
of
the
public
agency;
Provisions
for
funding
monitoring
activities,
including
the
imposition
of
fees;
and
Provisions
for
responding
to
a
failure
to
comply
with
any
required
mitigation
measures
(including
conditions
of
approval).
This
might
include
“stop
work”
authority,
permit
revocation
proceedings,
or
civil
enforcement
procedures.
This
can
also
include
administrative
appeal
procedures.

The
MMRP
set
forth
in
Chapter
4.0
of
this
Final
EIR
follows
these
guidelines.
Modification
to
Mitigation
Measures
Because
the
Baylands
EIR
is
a
program
EIR
prepared
to
consider
broad
programmatic
issues
at
an
early
stage
in
the
planning
process,
it
provides
a
starting
point
(or
first
tier)
for
subsequent
planning,
design,
and
environmental
analysis
of
site-specific
development
and
future
implementation
activities.
Future
project-specific
CEQA
reviews
will
focus
on
project-specific
impacts
and
mitigation
measures.
Therefore,
additional
environmental
review
would
occur
as
site-specific
development
projects
are
proposed
and
the
Baylands
development
program
is
implemented.
This
future
review
would
provide
the
City
with
the
opportunity
to
update
the
environmental
analysis
to
reflect
new
technologies,
current
regulations,
and
any
other
considerations.
Furthermore,
this
program
EIR
includes
programmatic
mitigation
measures
based
on
the
best
available
information
possible
at
the
time
of
writing,
which,
where
appropriate,
include
performance
measures
to
provide
for
implementation.
Because
CEQA
requires
that
mitigation
measures
be
formulated
as
early
in
the
process
as
possible,
often
before
site-specific
engineering
and
design
details
are
available,
CEQA
allows
Lead
Agencies
to
defer
the
implementation
of
mitigation
measures
in
such
cases
as
long
as
they
specify
performance
standards
for
mitigating
a
significant
impact
that
might
be
accomplished
in
various
ways
(CEQA
Guidelines
Section
15126.4(a)(1)(B)).
For
example,
an
agency
may
defer
committing
to
specific
mitigation
activities
when
it
approves
a
project
if
the
measures
that
will
subsequently
be
considered
are
described
