Site(s) affected: All <br />Draft SEIR, pp. 4.J-16 to 4.J-18.) <br />Impact 44-2 <br />Construction associated with development facilitated by the General Plan <br />Amendment and rezonings could potentially generate ground-borne vibration at neighboring <br />sensitive uses. <br />The SEIR evaluates the impact of the proposed project related to generate <br />ground-borne vibration at neighboring sensitive uses. <br />Significance Before Mitigation: Significant <br />Significance After Mitigation: Less than Significant <br />Finding: Changes or alterations have been required in or incorporated into the <br />Project that would avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental <br />effect as identified in the SEIR. Mitigation Measure 4.J-2 which is required in or <br />incorporated into the Project, will reduce the significant environmental impact to a <br />less than significant level. <br />Facts in Support of Finding: The following facts and mitigation measures indicate <br />that the impact will be reduced to less than significant. <br />1.Vibration exposure at sensitive uses located near <br />construction sites could exceed the applicable criteria in situations where pile <br />driving or similar vibration-producing activity occurs. <br />2.Implementation of Mitigation Measure 4.J-2 set forth in <br />Table 6-1 of the Final SEIR and listed in the MMRP will ensure that Impact 4.J-2 <br />would be reduced to a less than significant level and is hereby incorporated by <br />reference and described below. <br />4.J-2: The City shall require developers on the potential sites for rezoning to <br />conduct a vibration study which will estimate vibration levels at neighboring <br />sensitive uses, and if required, provide mitigation efforts needed to satisfy the <br />applicable construction vibration level limit established in Table 4.J-4. It is <br />expected that vibration mitigation for all project sites will be reasonable and <br />feasible. <br />Site(s) affected: All <br />Draft SEIR, 4.J-18 to 4.J-19.) <br />Impact 4.1-3 <br />Development facilitated by the General Plan Amendment and rezonings could <br />potentially locate residential uses near an existing rail line. Future residents could potentially be <br />exposed to excessive exterior and interior noise exposure from train noise events.
