City of Pleasanton—Villages at the Quarry Project 15183 Consistency Checklist Consistency Checklist 153 City is located on a shoreline susceptible to tsunamis. Therefore, development consistent with the Housing Element Update would not result in substantial inundation by seiche or tsunami, and no impact would occur related to a release of pollutants due to related inundation. The Housing Element Update FEIR indicated that several rezoned housing sites are within the 500-year flood hazard zone (see Housing Element Update FEIR Exhibit 3.9 1). Development consistent with the Housing Element Update would be subject to the General Plan policies and programs and the Municipal Code, which would reduce the risks of inundation. Additionally, all future development would be evaluated on a project-by-project basis for impacts related to risk of pollutant release associated with flooding and inundation. Therefore, the risk of release of pollutants during inundation would be less than significant. Proposed Project Analysis and Conclusion The project site is over 15 miles east of the San Francisco Bay, but the project site is located over 0.44 mile south of Lake I of the Zone 7 Water Agency (Zone 7) Chain of Lakes. Two other lakes, Cope Lake and Shadow Cliffs Lake, are located approximately 0.71 mile and 0.81 mile northeast and southeast of the project site, respectively. These lakes could be susceptible to seiches; however, the water elevations in these lakes would be low enough to prevent seiche inundation on the project site. Furthermore, the proposed project would comply with all applicable regulations and requirements from the Municipal Code and NPDES. As discussed above, the project site is not within the 100-year Annual Chance Flood Hazard zone; the project site is mapped within an area of minimal flood hazard (Zone X).29 Additionally, the proposed project does not include the storage of hazardous materials or pollutants. Therefore, there are no 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. 29 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). 2009.
