Relevant policies from the MHMP are evaluated to identify the project's conformance with policies.A large number of policies are found in the MHMP and many of these policies either do not apply to the project site or are redundant. For this reason, only the key policies were chosen for evaluation(Appendix G). Policies from the San Joaquin County General Plan are also addressed at the end of this table, as they apply to new communities, such as the proposed project. IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES The project is not the subject of a local coastal program. Thus,this topic is not addressed further in this Draft EIR. IMPACT General Plan Policies and Zoning—Conflict with Adopted Policies in the MHMP and San Joaquin 4.3-1 County General Plan. The project would conflict with a specific policy of the MHMP that is the implementing _ document of the County's General Plan for the overall Mountain House community. Policy inconsistency would be related to increased trip volume and the associated auto emissions and noise.A potentially significant impact would occur. A detailed analysis of the project's relationship to key policies of the MHMP and the San Joaquin County General Plan(Volume 1)can be found in Appendix G.The potential conflicts addressed below are the only potential conflicts identified based on a comparison of the proposed land use plan and specific plan with the adopted MHMP policies.
