Summary of 2018 Spotorno Ranch Air Quality Analysis <br />March 22, 2021 <br />Page 9 <br /> <br />summarizes the project’s estimated cancer risks and hazard impacts at the MIR from the project’s <br />construction emissions with the application of Tier III mitigation. <br />Table 6: Estimated Health Risks and Hazards During Construction—Tier III Mitigation <br />Health Impact Metric <br />Cancer Risk <br />(risk per million) <br />Chronic <br />Non-Cancer <br />Hazard Index(2) <br />Annual PM2.5 <br />Concentration <br />(µg/m3) <br />Risks and Hazards at the Maximum Impacted Off-site Sensitive Receptor (MIR):(1) <br />Risks and Hazards at the Maximum Impacted <br />Sensitive Receptor (MIR): Infants 9.6 0.01 0.04 <br />Risks and Hazards at the Maximum Impacted <br />Sensitive Receptor (MIR): Child 1.6 0.01 0.04 <br />Risks and Hazards at the Maximum Impacted <br />Sensitive Receptor (MIR): Adult 0.2 0.01 0.04 <br />BAAQMD Significance Threshold 10.0 1.0 0.3 <br />Exceeds Individual Source Threshold? No No No <br />Notes: <br />1 Maximum impacted sensitive receptor is a resident located 2315 Westbridge Lane, which is 68 feet south of the <br />project site. <br />2 Chronic non-cancer hazard index was estimated by dividing the annual DPM concentration (as PM2.5 exhaust) by the <br />REL of 5 µg/m3. <br />Source: CalEEMod and FirstCarbon Solutions <br /> <br />As noted in Table 6, the project’s construction emissions would not exceed the BAAQMD’s significance <br />threshold at the MIR after implementation of MM AIR-4. Therefore, with implementation of Tier III <br />mitigation, the project’s construction emissions would not result in significant health impacts to nearby <br />sensitive receptors. <br />Estimates of Health Risks and Hazards from Project Operation <br />The proposed project involves the construction and development of 39 single-family within a 31-acre lot <br />and would permanently preserve approximately 80 acres as open space. The portion of the project to be <br />developed is designed for residential uses, and there would be no on-site TAC sources during operation. <br />Unlike warehouses or distribution centers, the daily vehicle trips generated by the project would be <br />generated by passenger vehicles. Because nearly all passenger vehicles are gasoline-combusted, the <br />project would not generate significant amount of DPM emissions during operation. Therefore, the <br />project would not result in significant health impacts to nearby sensitive receptors during operation. <br />Cumulative Health Risks <br />The cumulative impact assessment quantified the cumulative impacts from existing TAC emission sources <br />located within 1,000 feet of the project site in addition to the maximum TAC emissions from the project. <br />There are no existing TAC sources (local roadway, stationary sources and freeways) located within 1,000 <br />feet of the project site boundary. In addition, the project’s construction and operational-related health risk
