The proposed revised project site is located in the City of Carson, approximately 17 miles south of downtown Los Angeles and approximately 6.5 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. The site is in the South Bay area of Los Angeles County and is currently undeveloped. The entire project site is comprised of approximately 168 acres located southwest of the San Diego Freeway (I-405) at and north of the Avalon Boulevard interchange. However, the proposed revisions are as to only the commercially zoned land located south of Del Amo, comprising approximately 157 acres of the overall project site located southwest of the San Diego Freeway (I-405) at, and north of, the Avalon Boulevard interchange. The 11 acres located north of Del Amo has been approved for residential uses and is not proposed to be a part of the revised project, but it will be considered as a related project as appropriate in the SEIR.

The City, as lead agency, is proposing to prepare a Supplemental EIR ("SEIR") to the 2006 EIR and its Addendum ("FEIR") to evaluate the changes proposed by the revised project to the previously approved project, and to determine whether changes in circumstances surrounding the project site and the original project (if any), and new information (if any), require further analysis under CEQA. As addressed by the 2006 EIR, 157 acres of the revised project site is a former landfill, which is currently undergoing cleanup in accordance with the 1995 Remediation Action Plan established for the site. The proposed revised project would retain the wide range of land uses adopted by the City under The Boulevards at South Bay Specific Plan (Specific Plan), now proposed to be renamed The District at South Bay, including the following uses: neighborhood commercial, regional commercial (including outlet commercial), commercial recreation/entertainment, restaurant, hotel, and residential. Specifically, the revised project would modify or otherwise reduce the scope of the original project to ultimately consist of approximately 1,601,500 sq. ft. of regional commercial, general commercial and related uses, including outlet and entertainment uses, no more than 1,250 residential units, and 350 rooms total in two hotels. Overall, with these proposed modifications, the total square footage is roughly equivalent to but more than 100,000 square feet less than that studied for the project in the FEIR.
