<br />Meadowlark Development - Austin Property - Environmental Checklist <br /> <br />b-d) Natural erosion is frequently accelerated by human activities such as site preparation for con- <br />struction. Grading and excavation and trenching for on-site utility lines, will disturb soils, which <br />could increase the rate of erosion if controls or best management practices are not in place. The <br />City requires that all projects meet the requirements for stormwater control measures during dc- <br />sign, construction and implementation phases of the project. Grading is prohibited from October <br />IS to April 1 to rcduce Citywide impacts, Therefore, this would be a less-than-signijicant- <br />impact. <br /> <br />e) The project will be connected to the sanitary sewer system, Therefore, this would be categorized <br />as no-impact. <br /> <br />7. HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS <br /> <br />Environmental Setting <br /> <br />The subject property is characterized by moderatc to steep terrain with a mix of grassland and native <br />vegetation including coast live oak, valley oak, acacia, and blue gum eucalyptus trees characterize the <br />subject propcrty. <br /> <br />Standards of Significance <br /> <br />For purposcs of this cnvironmental document, an impact is considered significant if the proposed project <br />would: <br /> <br />. Result in exposing people to cxisting contaminated soil during construction activities; <br />. Result in exposing people to asbestos containing materials; <br />. Result in exposing people to contaminated groundwatcr if dewatering activities take place, <br /> <br /> Less Than <br /> Potentially Significant Less Than <br /> Significant With Mitigation Significant No <br />Issues Impact Incorporated Impact Impact <br />Hazards And Hazardous Materials <br />Would the project: <br />a) Create a significant hazard to the public or the envi- D D ~ D <br /> ronment through the routinc transport, use, or disposal <br /> of hazardous materials? <br />b) Create a significant hazard to the public or the envi- D D [K] D <br /> ronment through reasonably foreseeable upset and ac- <br /> cident conditions involving the release of hazardous <br /> matcrials into the environment? <br /> <br />PGPA-ll/PUD-58/PTR-7813 <br /> <br />Page 21 of 36 <br /> <br />July 19,2006 <br />
