Location: City Hall Council Chambers, 4455 W. 126th St., Hawthorne, CA 90250

Subject: Consideration of a Resolution adopting the Final Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Hawthorne Airport Hangars Project at Jack Northrop Field (12101 Crenshaw Blvd), which would demolish outdated structures and construct 13 new aircraft hangars with related airfield and site improvements. The Initial Study/MND concludes that, with mitigation, potential impacts would be reduced to less than significant.

Summary: The City is considering adoption of a Final Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Hawthorne Airport Hangars Project at Jack Northrop Field (12101 Crenshaw Blvd). The project would demolish outdated structures, remove ~55,000 sq ft of impervious surface, and construct 13 new aircraft hangars with associated taxiways, parking, utilities, grading, and stormwater improvements, with modern safety and energy-efficiency features. The Initial Study/MND identifies mitigation reducing potentially significant impacts to less than significant, including measures for cultural resources, hazards/hazardous materials (well coordination with DTSC/Northrop Grumman/CDM Smith), and tribal cultural resources; a full MMRP is available for review.

How to review materials: The Final IS/MND and MMRP are available at City Hall and online at https://www.cityofhawthorne.org/engineering
