South Region Elementary School No. 7
Under contract to the Los Angeles Unified School District, Aspen prepared an Initial Study followed by a Draft EIR to assess the impacts of building a new elementary school on a 4.29-acre site developed with residential and commercial uses in the community of Florence-Firestone in an unincorporated area of Los Angeles County. The new school was planned to provide 950 two-semester seats in 38 classrooms for kindergarten through sixth grade. The EIR focused on Aesthetics, Hazards and Hazardous Materials (train derailment), Noise, and Pedestrian Safety. Aspen also prepared the CEQA Findings of Fact for the EIR.
