City of Pleasanton–10x Genomics Project Environmental Checklist and <br />Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration Environmental Evaluation <br /> <br /> <br />FirstCarbon Solutions 83 <br />Https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480024/ISMND/wp/21480024 10x Genomics Project Full Screencheck ISMND.docx <br />Applicable Goals and Supporting Actions Project Consistency <br />2020; 90% by 2025; that includes strategies and <br />implementation timeline for improving diversion and <br />reducing waste generation. <br />increase bicycle use, and other measures that <br />will reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The <br />proposed project would also be subject to City <br />requirements, including the Mandatory Recycling <br />Ordinance (2017), which are designed to help <br />the City achieve the target of establishing <br />Pleasanton as a Zero Waste Community by 2025. <br />Future project employees would have access to <br />City and regional programs, educational <br />materials, and other resources aimed to reduce <br />community waste. <br />Supporting Action SW 2-4: Partner with the PGS to <br />expand commercial recycling program to include the <br />collection and processing of more materials; launch <br />commercial organics program. Note: Commercial recycling <br />will be mandatory by 2012. <br />Supporting Action SW 2-6: Implement and enforce <br />Construction and Demolition debris recycling ordinance. <br />Supporting Action SW 2-10: Utilize resources available <br />through Stopwaste.org to promote outreach and <br />education to businesses to use less packaging, and more <br />durable, local, and low-impact goods, and reusable <br />shipping containers. <br />Supporting Action SW 2-12: For new and remodeled <br />commercial and multifamily buildings, require adequate <br />space and logistics for handling of recyclable and <br />compostable materials. <br />Water and Wastewater <br />Goal: Reduce Water Use Consistent. As previously described, the proposed <br />project would incorporate landscaping (including <br />trees) throughout the site in accordance with <br />City standards. <br />Supporting Action WA 1-4: Implement a landscape <br />ordinance requiring new commercial and residential <br />projects to meet prescribed landscape water budgets and <br />ensure that new construction uses the latest irrigation <br />technology, and meet or exceed AB 1881 requirements <br />Supporting Action WA 1-7: Restrict landscape watering; <br />encourage xeriscaping and drought-resistant planting in <br />lieu of lawns. <br />Community Engagement <br />Goal: Influence Personal Behavior Consistent. Implementation of the proposed <br />project would not hinder City in developing or <br />facilitating programs aimed to engage or educate <br />City residents in matters relating to sustainable <br />personal behaviors. Future project employees <br />could participate in community outreach <br />programs promoted by the City. <br />Supporting Action PE 1-3: In conjunction with the <br />www.PleasantonGreenScene.org website, develop a <br />citywide outreach program that engages, educates, and <br />exchanges information on implementing the measures in <br />the Climate Action Plan and related General Plan policies. <br />Supporting Action PE 1-4: Develop user-friendly fact <br />sheets for ways that residents, landlords and/or <br />businesses can reduce GHG emissions by improving <br />energy and water efficiency, reducing waste, and improve <br />home performance using green building techniques; <br />organize information by cost efficiency and type of home <br />or building (apartment, slab foundation, pier foundation, <br />etc.). If available, include funding and implementation <br />resources. Distribute at events and post on web site.
