Consistent with the requirements of CEQA, the City has released this Notice of Preparation (NOP) to seek comments regarding any specific concerns related to the potential environmental effects of the Project. Information gathered during the NOP comment period will be used to shape and focus future analyses of environmental issues. If you are a public agency, the City is interested in your agency’s views as to the scope and content of the environmental information germane to your agency’s statutory responsibilities. As a responsible or trustee agency, your agency may need to use the EIR prepared by the City when considering issuance of a permit or other approval for the Project. The proposed Project is located in the County of Los Angeles, in the northeast quadrant of the City of El Segundo, approximately 10 miles southwest of downtown Los Angeles. More specifically, the Project site is approximately 12.5 acres and consists of three parcels located at 333 Continental Boulevard, 455-475 Continental Boulevard, and 1955 East Grand Avenue (see Figure 1). The Continental Grand Campus Specific Plan would allow for the orderly expansion and ultimate build-out of the Mattel corporate headquarters. The project would result in a net increase of approximately 445,766 gross square feet (gsf) of floor area throughout the headquarters complex. Specifically, the Project would consist of: Constructing a new a 14-story office building measuring approximately 328,612 gsf (293,160 net square feet) on the parcel located at 455 Continental Boulevard. Approximately 219,870 net square feet would be used for office space and approximately 73,290 net square feet would be used for design and development. The remaining 35,452 net square feet would be distributed throughout the 14-story building and would consist of stairwells, storage closets, restrooms, and mechnaical rooms. An eight-level parking structure on the parcel located at 455 Continental Parcel. A new surface parking lot would also be located behind the structure. Demolition of the existing 57,082 square foot building located at 1955 Grand Avenue, and constructing a new 6-story office building measuring up to 174,240 square feet. The existing improvements at 333 Continental Boulevard would remain unchanged. With the proposed development on the 455 Continental Boulevard and 1955 Grand Avenue Parcels, and the existing development on the 333 Continental Boulevard Parcel, an overall FAR of 1.6 would result on the site. In addition to the Specific Plan, the Project entitlements include a Development Agreement, a General Plan Amendment, and a Zone Text Amendment to exceed the allowable floor area ratio (FAR) of 0.8. An Initial Study was completed and determined that an EIR is needed to fully evaluate certain issues and their potential level of significance. Initial review indicates that the following issues may be of concern and/or require specific mitigation to avoid/ reduce impacts: Aesthetics, Air Quality, Cultural Resources, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology/Water Quality, Land Use/Planning, Noise, Public Services, Transportation/Traffic, and Utilities and Service Systems. This notice is a request for environmental information that any person or organization believes should be addressed in the EIR.
