0 SECTION III <br /> SUMMARY OF ENVIRONMENTAL, IMPACTS AND MITIGATIONS <br /> The following table presents a summary of the project' s <br /> potentially significant environmental impacts and mitigation <br /> - measures which would eliminate or reduce such impacts to a level <br /> of insignificance. The table also identifies significant impacts <br /> on the environment which cannot be mitigated to an acceptable <br /> level . <br /> The following definition is provided to help clarify the <br /> concept of Significant Effects, as required by the California <br /> Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) , as amended . It is taken from <br /> the CEQA Guidelines, 1986. <br /> "Significant Effect on the Environment" is defined in Section # <br /> 15382 of the State CEQA Guidelines. It means : <br /> A substantial , or potentially substantial , adverse <br /> an <br /> change in of the physical conditions within the area <br /> Y <br /> affected by the project including land , air, water, , <br /> �. minerals, flora , fauna , ambient noise, and object of <br /> historic or aesthetic significance. An economic or ` <br /> social change by itself shall not be considered a <br /> significant effect on . the environment. A social or <br /> economic change related to a physical change may be k <br /> considered in determining whether the physical change is <br /> r significant. <br /> ' The significant unavoidable adverse impacts identified in an <br /> EIR (CEQA document) require the Lead Agency and each Responsible <br /> Agency to make a finding (CEQA Guidelines, Section 15091 and <br /> Public Resources Code, Section 21083 and 21087) for each <br /> significant unavoidable adverse impact, and a statement of <br /> overriding considerations (CEQA Guidelines, Section 15093) for <br /> the project, if approved . <br /> It should be noted that a majority of the proposed <br /> mitigation measures relate to the underlying project itself, and <br /> not to the proposed General Plan Amendment and Zone <br /> Reclassification. Those mitigation measures which are to be <br /> implemented at the General Plan Amendment and Zone <br /> Reclassification phase of the planning process are indicated with <br /> an asterisk (* ) . All other mitigations are to be implemented at <br /> the Tentative Sub Map approval stage. <br /> 9 <br /> f <br />
