<br />3909 Vineyard Avenue Environmental Checklist <br /> <br />region is non- attainment under an applicable <br />federal or state ambient air quality standard <br />(including releasing emissions which exceed <br />quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? <br /> <br />d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant D <br />concentrations? <br /> <br />D <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />D <br /> <br />e) Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial D <br />number of people? <br /> <br />D <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />D <br /> <br />Discussion <br /> <br />a-d) The proposed project is expected to generate short-term impacts related to construction <br />activities during site preparation (clearing! grubbing) and construction. There is <br />variability in construction activities making it difficult to precisely quantify the daily <br />emissions associated with the proposed project. During construction some equipment <br />may exceed some of the established BAAQMD emissions standards, however, <br />construction activity on the site is required to implement dust control measures (e.g., <br />periodic watering of the site, cover all trucks hauling soil, sand, and other loose material, <br />etc.) to control airborne particulate. All construction equipment is required to meet all <br />current exhaust standards for emissions. <br /> <br />Long-term operational emissions would be generated by both stationary and mobile <br />sources as a result of normal day-to-day activities on site subsequent to construction <br />completion. Stationary area source emission would be generated by the consumption of <br />natural gas for space (HV AC) and water heating devices and operation of landscape <br />maintenance equipment. Mobile source emissions would be generated by motor vehicles <br />traveling to and from the project site. <br /> <br />The proposed residential development will result in small, incremental, and insignificant <br />increases. Residential development is subject to the City's Growth Management Policies, <br />which are consistent with the area wide air quality management plan. Therefore, this <br />would be a less-than-significant-impact. <br /> <br />e) The proposed project will result in the construction of residential and open space uses and <br />will not result in producing objectionable odors. Therefore, this would be a less-than- <br />significant-impact. <br /> <br />10 <br />
