Bicycle Transportation Account (BTA) funding, Master Plans must comply with California Streets and Highways Code Section 891.2. Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA) CalEPA designates specific local agencies as CUPAs, typically at the county level. Each designated CUPA is responsible for the implementation of six statewide programs within its jurisdiction. These programs include: Underground storage of hazardous substances; Hazardous Materials Business Plan (HMP) requirements; Hazardous Waste Generator requirements; California Accidental Release Prevention (CalARP) program; Uniform Fire Code hazardous materials management plan; and Above Ground Storage Tanks (Spill Prevention Control; and Countermeasures Plan only). Implementation of these programs involves: Permitting and inspection of regulated facilities; Providing educational guidance and notice of changing requirements stipulated in State or Federal laws and regulations; Investigations of complaints regarding spills or unauthorized releases; and Administrative enforcement actions levied against facilities that have violated applicable laws and regulations. The CalEPA designated CUPAs for the six-county SACOG region are: El Dorado County – Environmental Management Department; Placer County – Environmental Health Services Department; City of Roseville – Fire Department (The City of Roseville has its own CUPA program); Sacramento County – Environmental Management Department; Sutter County – Environmental Health Services Department; Yolo County – Environmental Health Department; and Yuba County – Environmental Health Department. Fire District Master Plans Many jurisdictions and fire districts in the region have adopted or are planning to adopt Fire District Master Plans. A master plan addresses staffing needs, facility needs, and service goals for the service area and serves as a guiding document for the organization and daily functions of the department.

Emergency Operations Plans Local jurisdictions maintain emergency operations plans that detail how emergency and disaster situations are to be handled within that jurisdiction. Jurisdictions may also have Multi-Hazard Emergency Plans that address various threats to the jurisdiction. General Plans Local planning policies related to public services and recreation are established in each jurisdiction’s general plan. In general, jurisdictions have policies in place that state that public services must be provided at the same time (or in advance of) need for that service. In addition to these general policies, jurisdictions may have more specific policies tailored to performance objectives, such as those outlined below. Policies and strategies for police protection services might include language pertaining to the development of law enforcement programs to reduce and control crime, the planning of future law enforcement facilities concurrently with growth, and the prevention of crime through education. Many jurisdictions also have specific goals, such as a maintaining a certain ratio of sworn officers to citizens, reducing response times, or reducing the overall number of crimes in the community. Policies and strategies for fire protection services might include goals for service provision (such as an average response time) and supporting policies to help meet those goals, such as implementing emergency signal activation or requiring sprinkler systems in new developments. Each jurisdiction’s general plan policies and goals will differ slightly depending on the level of need and type of services being provided. For emergency services, some of the relevant policies may include coordinating with other agencies that are responsible for planning medical facilities to meet the health care needs of residents in the region, retaining hospitals, evaluating medical facility proposals, providing emergency response services, and participating in mutual-aid agreements. IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES Methods and Assumptions This impacts analysis analyzes each significance criterion individually, assessing how implementation of the proposed MTP/SCS, including changes to the land use pattern and transportation network, may impact hazards and hazardous materials. For each impact, the implementation of the proposed MTP/SCS is assessed for land use and transportation impacts at the regional level, because the impacts at the localized or Transit Priority Areas are the same as the impacts at the regional level, unless otherwise noted. By 2035, implementation of the proposed MTP/SCS will result in a land use pattern and transportation network that is different from existing conditions. Unless otherwise stated, "existing conditions" in the proposed MTP/SCS refers to conditions in the baseline of 2008.
