City of Pleasanton—Villages at the Quarry Project <br />Consistency Checklist 15183 Consistency Checklist <br /> <br /> <br />58 <br />modes of transportation, monitoring and improving existing sources of TACs <br />throughout the City and reducing overall health impacts related to air quality <br />in general. <br />Furthermore, for project sites that would be located within siting distances <br />recommended by the BAAQMD and ARB, currently published in the ARB Air <br />Quality and Land Use Handbook: A Community Health Perspective, or the <br />latest available guidance as determined by the City of Pleasanton as the <br />lead agency, MM AIR-1b requires the preparation of a site-specific HRA and <br />to mitigate potential risk to potential new sensitive receptors to less than <br />significant levels. Adherence to the policies and programs of the General <br />Plan would ensure compliance with existing BAAQMD policies to ensure the <br />reduction of sensitive receptor exposure to TACs. The Housing Element <br />Update FEIR concluded that with the implementation of MM AIR-1b, sensitive <br />receptors would not be exposed to substantial pollutant concentrations, and <br />impacts would be less than significant. <br />Proposed Project Analysis and Conclusion <br />Project impacts related to increased health risk can occur either by <br />introducing a new source of TACs with the potential to adversely affect <br />existing sensitive receptors in the project vicinity or by significantly <br />exacerbating existing cumulative TAC impacts. The proposed project would <br />introduce new sources of TACs during construction (i.e., on-site construction <br />and truck hauling emissions). <br />Housing Element Update FEIR MM AIR-1b addresses exposure of sensitive <br />receptors to TACs and air pollution. Under this mitigation measure, projects <br />that may result in TAC emissions within 1,000 feet of sensitive receptors are <br />required to prepare an HRA. Based on the results of the HRA, the proposed <br />project may be required to identify and implement measures (such as air <br />filtration systems) to reduce potential exposure to PM, CO, diesel fumes, and <br />other potential health hazards. Measures identified in the HRA are to be <br />included into the site development plan as a component of a proposed <br />project. <br />There are existing sensitive receptors, including residences and a school, <br />within 1,000 feet of the project site, and project construction activity would <br />generate dust and equipment exhaust that could affect nearby sensitive <br />receptors. The project would not include stationary sources of air pollutants or <br />TACs, but traffic generated by the project would consist of mostly light-duty
