Facts in Support of Finding: The following facts and mitigation measures indicate that the impact will be reduced to less than significant. 1.Remaining and/or previously unidentified contamination may be present on or below ground surface. Encountering contaminated soil, surface water, and groundwater without taking proper precautions during site remediation could result in the exposure of construction workers to hazardous materials and consequently result in associated significant adverse human health and environmental impacts. 2.Implementation of Mitigation Measure 4.G-2 set forth in Table 6-1 of the Final SEIR and listed in the MMRP will ensure that Impact 4.G-2 would be reduced to a less than significant level and is hereby incorporated by reference and described below: 4.G-2: The City shall ensure that each project applicant retain a qualified environmental consulting firm to prepare a Phase I environmental site assessment in accordance with ASTM E1527-05 which would ensure that the City is aware of any hazardous materials on the site and can require the right course of action. The Phase I shall determine the presence of recognized environmental conditions and provide recommendations for further investigation, if applicable. Prior to receiving a building or grading permit, project applicant shall provide documentation from overseeing agency (e.g., ACEH or RWQCB) that sites with identified contamination have been remediated to levels where no threat to human health or the environment remains for the proposed uses. Site(s) affected: All Draft SEIR, 4.G-11 to 4.G-13.) Impact 4.G-4 Development facilitated by the General Plan Amendment and rezonings could potentially be located on one or more sites that are included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code section 65962.5, resulting in a hazard to the public or the environment. The SEIR evaluates the impacts related to the potential for sites proposed for development to be included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code § 65962.5, resulting in a hazard to the public or the environment. Significance Before Mitigation: Significant Significance After Mitigation: Less than Significant Finding: Changes or alterations have been required in or incorporated into the Project that would avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the SEIR. Mitigation Measure 4.G-2 which is required in or incorporated into the Project, will reduce the significant environmental impact to a less than significant level.
