<br /> substantially lessen,but not avoid,the significant environmental effect as identified in the PEIR have been required
<br /> in, or incorporated into,the proposed project.
<br /> Impact AQ-4:Expose People to Toxic Air Contaminants Emitted by Prescribed Burns and Related Health Risk
<br /> EX No feasible mitigation is available.
<br /> All feasible precautions and notifications have been incorporated into the CaIVTP to reduce the severity of this
<br /> impact, but not to a less-than-significant level. No additional feasible measures are available for the Project
<br /> Proponent to implement, and, for the same reasons explained in the PEIR, this impact would remain potentially
<br /> significant and unavoidable. SPRs applicable to these treatment activities are AD-4,AQ-1, AQ-2, AQ-3, and AQ-6.
<br /> All feasible measures to prevent and minimize smoke emissions, as well as exposure to smoke, are included in
<br /> SPRs; however, this impact would remain significant and unavoidable, as explained in the PEIR. The Project
<br /> Proponent concludes, however, that the benefits of the CaIVTP outweigh the significant unavoidable impacts of
<br /> the Program, as set forth in the Statement of Overriding Considerations, below. The Project Proponent therefore
<br /> finds that changes or alterations that will substantially lessen, but not avoid, the significant environmental effect
<br /> as identified in the PEIR have been required in, or incorporated into,the proposed project.
<br /> Impact AQ-6: Expose People to Objectionable Odors from Smoke during Prescribed Burning
<br /> No feasible mitigation is available.
<br /> All feasible precautions and notifications have been incorporated into the CalVTP to reduce the severity of this
<br /> impact, but not to a less-than-significant level. No additional feasible measures are available for the Project
