City of Pleasanton—Villages at the Quarry Project Consistency Checklist 15183 Consistency Checklist 84 Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), which must indicate that the proposed fill is consistent with the standards set forth by the State and confirm that any discharge into regulated wetlands comply with applicable water quality standards. Compliance with these goals, policies, programs, and State and federal requirements would reduce impacts; however, the potential for impacts to State or federally protected waters and wetlands remains potentially significant. Accordingly, prior to the issuance of grading permits, a qualified Biologist/wetland regulatory specialist would conduct a site investigation and assessment for projects on sites where potentially jurisdictional wetlands or waterways are present. MM BIO-1 further requires that if a feature is found to be jurisdictional or potentially jurisdictional that the applicant would be required, prior to disturbance of the feature, to comply with the appropriate permitting process of each agency claiming jurisdiction. The Housing Element Update FEIR concluded that with mandatory regulatory compliance and implementation of MM BIO-1, future development projects consistent with the Housing Element Update would have less than significant adverse effects related to federally protected wetlands, waters of the United States, or waters of the State. Proposed Project Analysis and Conclusion A general biological survey was performed by FCS in April 2024 to determine biological resources present on-site, including potential jurisdictional features. The proposed project site currently functions as a construction equipment storage yard. The project site does not contain State or federally protected wetlands or other waters. Therefore, development of the project site would not result in adverse effects related to federally protected wetlands, waters of the United States, or waters of the State. The proposed project would not result in any significant environmental effects that are peculiar to the proposed project. The proposed project would not result in a new or more severe adverse impact that was not previously identified in the Housing Element Update FEIR. d) Fish and Wildlife Movement Corridors Would the project: Interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of wildlife nursery sites?
