Draft Environmental Impact Report Bernal Property Phase II Specific Plan The studies were not found by the DOHS to be definitive. Therefore, the Conditions of Approval of Bernal Property Phase I development (Condition 38,(e))22 required the property owner to undertake a process of expert studies and review by responsible health services agencies to assess whether site conditions posed a potential threat to public health and safety. If so, a remediation plan was to be prepared under the supervision of the Alameda County Health Services Department, including a radiological study of the site undertaken in consultation with the Radiologic Health Branch of DOHS, The same condition would be applicable to the Phase II Specific Plan, c. Wildfire Fire Protection and Emergency Evacuation The Phase I Specific Plan called for relocation of Fire Station #4 to the Specific Plan site; the site designated was the site having the best potential of those considered to respond to emergencies in less than five minutes, The fire station was constructed and began operations in 2005, The 1997/2000 EIR did not identifY or imply potential impacts from the proposed project regarding potential impairment or physical interference with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan. 3. Key Project Characteristics, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures a. Key Project Characteristics The proposed project includes the following components/characteristics that relate to hazardous materials transport, use, storage, and disposal that could result from project implementation: . The proposed project is not expected to include extensive use of hazardous materials. Hazardous materials may be brought to the site during construction for fueling construction vehicles or for proposed site improvements (e,g, paints, adhe- sives, lubricants), These hazardous materials uses are expected to be similar to those used in Phase I construction activities, . Hazardous materials, including pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, and fertilizers, may be used following project implementation for maintenance of sports fields, trails, or for other passive recreational facilities or landscaped open space areas, Hazardous materials (e,g, fuels, lubricants) may also be used in equipment used to maintain these areas, . Hazardous materials may be encountered by workers and the general public in soil and/or groundwater from past or current land uses with known hazardous materials uses including agriculture and wastewater effluent disposal. . No buildings or other structures that could potentially be painted with lead-based paint or contain asbestos are known to exist within the project area, 22 Bernal Property Conditions of Approval, Adopted August 28, 2000, p, 20, 80
