Based on the analysis provided in Section 2.5, Cultural Resources, the proposed project’s impacts related to California history or prehistory would be less than significant with mitigation incorporated. While there are no known historic resources on the project site, there is a low likelihood that subsurface construction activities could destroy previously undiscovered historic resources. Implementation of MM CUL-1 would ensure that potential impacts on historic resources are reduced to a less-than-significant level. Additionally, there are no known archaeological resources on the project site, but there is always a possibility that subsurface excavation could result in the discovery of previously undiscovered prehistoric archaeological resources. Implementation of MM CUL-1 would ensure that potential impacts on prehistoric archaeological resources are reduced to a less- than-significant level. Additionally, there is a low potential that subsurface construction activities, such as grading or trenching, could potentially damage or destroy previously undiscovered human remains. MM CUL-2 specifies the procedures to follow in the event human remains are uncovered. In addition to compliance with required guidelines and statutes, implementation of MM CUL-2 would reduce potential impacts on human remains to a less-than-significant level. In addition to reducing impacts on historic and prehistoric resources, implementation of MM CUL-1 and MM CUL-2 would also reduce any impacts on TCRs. Based on the discussion provided above, compliance with required guidelines and statutes and implementation of the mitigation measures, the proposed project would not substantially degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, substantially reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant with incorporation of MM BIO-1, MM BIO-2, MM CUL-1, and MM CUL-2. b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? (“Cumulatively considerable” means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? Less than significant with mitigation incorporated. The analysis presented in this Draft IS/MND includes a review of proposed project's potential impacts related to air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, noise, and transportation, among other environmental issue areas. As presented throughout this IS/MND, the proposed project’s cumulative impacts would either be less than significant with mitigation incorporated, less than significant, or there would be no impacts. Section 2.3, Air Quality, analyzed cumulative impacts related to pollutants and determined that cumulative impacts would be less than significant with mitigation incorporated. Regional cumulative impacts would be the result of the non-attainment status of regional pollutants is a result of past
