City of Pleasanton—Villages at the Quarry Project <br />15183 Consistency Checklist Consistency Checklist <br /> <br /> <br /> 61 <br />exposure durations. The project MEIR is identified as the sensitive receptor <br />that is most impacted by the proposed project’s construction. In identifying <br />the MEIR, the HRA also considered future potential residential receptors for a <br />proposed project to the east that is also within the proposed project site’s <br />1,000-foot zone of influence. It conservatively assumed that these new <br />residences at Arroyo Lago would be constructed and occupied prior to the <br />proposed project’s construction, which represents the most conservative <br />case. <br />Summary of Project-related Health Risks at the Off-site Project MEIW <br />Cancer risk and the chronic HI was calculated for the off-site Maximally <br />Exposed Individual Worker (MEIW) based on the maximum DPM <br />concentration at identified off-site receptors. 8-hour breathing rates for <br />moderate intensity activities of 230 liters per kilogram for 8 hours (L/kg per 8 <br />hours) (applicable to 16–70-year-old adults) were used to calculate the daily <br />dose via the inhalation route to the worker. The analysis assumes a start age <br />of 16 years and an exposure duration equivalent to the construction duration <br />of 5.1 years. <br />Since the construction emissions were modeled as a non-continuous source, <br />the worker adjustment factor was used to adjust for the proper exposure <br />concentration. When modeling a non-continuously emitting source (e.g., <br />operating for 8 hours per day and 5 days per week), the modeled long-term <br />average concentrations are based on 24 hours a day and 7 days per week <br />for the period of the meteorological data set. Even though the emitting <br />source is modeled using a non-continuous emissions schedule, the long-term <br />concentration is still based on 24 hours a day and 7 days per week. Thus, this <br />concentration includes the zero hours when the source was not operating. <br />The worker adjustment factor (WAF) is used to determine the long-term <br />concentration the worker is breathing during their work shift. Therefore, the <br />long-term concentration is adjusted so it is based only on the hours when the <br />worker is present. For this proposed project, assuming the emitting source and <br />worker’s schedules are the same, the adjustment factor is 4.2 = (24 hours per <br />day/8 hours per shift) x (7 days in a week/5 days in a work week). <br />HARP2 provides for the specification of the WAF for worker cancer risk <br />assessments, and this was entered as 4.2 to make this adjustment. <br />Summary of Project-Related Health Risks to Students <br />Student cancer risk and chronic hazards were determined for the Montessori <br />School of Pleasanton (within 1,000 feet of the proposed project site).
