AUGUSTIN BERNAL MOUNTAIN BIKE TRAIL PROJECT DRAFT INITIAL STUDY <br /> 3.20 Wildfire <br /> < Less Than <br /> Significant <br /> nificant <br /> Potentially Impact With Less Than <br /> Y4 Significant Mitigation Significant <br /> n� <t Impact Incorporated Impact No Impact <br /> < . <br /> XX. WILDFIRE- If located in or near state responsibility areas or lands classified as very high fire <br /> hazard severity zones,would the project: <br /> a) Substantially impair an adopted <br /> emergency response plan or emergency ❑ ❑ ® ❑ <br /> evacuation plan? <br /> b) Due to slope, prevailing winds,and other <br /> factors,exacerbate wildfire risks,and <br /> thereby expose project occupants to, ❑ ❑ ❑ ❑ <br /> pollutant concentrations from a wildfire <br /> or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire? <br /> c) Require the installation or maintenance <br /> of associated infrastructure(such as <br /> roads,fuel breaks, emergency water <br /> sources, power lines,or other utilities) ❑ ❑ ® ❑ <br /> that may exacerbate fire risk or that may <br /> result in temporary or ongoing impacts <br /> to the environment? <br /> d) Expose people or structures to <br /> significant risks, including downslope or <br /> downstream flooding or landslides,as a ❑ ❑ ❑ <br /> result of runoff, post-fire slope <br /> instability,or drainage changes? <br /> Setting <br /> The project site is within the service area of Livermore Pleasanton Fire Department.California Department <br /> of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) mapping identifies the project site as a Very High Fire Hazard <br /> Severity Zone in a State Responsibility Area (CAL FIRE 2021). <br /> Impact Discussion <br /> a) Would the project substantially impair an adopted emergency response plan or emergency <br /> evacuation plan? <br /> The project would construct a new mountain bike trail within and adjacent to the existing Augustin <br /> Bernal Community Park. The project would not increase traffic in the project area in a way that <br /> could impede emergency response and does not include any structures or features that would <br /> physically interfere with implementation of emergency response or evacuation plans. The project <br /> would rely on access via existing roadways and would not alter any public streets in such a way that <br /> would impair emergency response. The project would not increase population that could result in <br /> 12956 <br /> DUDEK 85 April 2022 <br />
