combination of more than one of these methods. Site-specific noise reduction measures shall be <br /> determined prior to Development Permit approval." <br /> (c) Implementation(a)under Objective 2 in Noise(Appendix C)should be replaced with: <br /> "Specific Plan and Development Permit Application Requirements. Applications for a specific plan or a <br /> Development Permit shall include acoustical studies for noise-sensitive land uses proposed to be located <br /> in areas exposed to noise levels above an Lm of 60 dB.These studies shall be submitted to the County <br /> with each specific plan. Appropriate mitigation measures shall be recommended in these studies and <br /> implemented by the appropriate party to ensure that the Ld.of 60 dB is maintained." <br /> (d) The following Implementation should be added under Objective 1 in Mobile Sources Noise Control <br /> (Noise)(Appendix C): <br /> "d) Noise studies for specific residential projects proposed in noise impacted areas(exposed to an Lft <br /> above 60 dB)shall address how noise levels in outdoor use areas, such as backyards,patios,decks, _ <br /> and other noise-sensitive land uses could be maintained below an Ld.of 60 dB. Noise studies and <br /> recommendations shall be submitted with each Tentative Map application." <br /> (e) Table 11.1 in the Draft Master Plan should be revised to reflect the most recent average daily traffic <br /> projections for I-205 (assuming six lanes in the future,not eight lanes)and for all other roadways. <br /> ► Mitigation Measure M4.14-2 <br /> A new Objective,Policy, and Implementation under Mobile Source Noise Control(Noise)(Appendix C) <br /> should be added: - <br /> "Objective: <br /> "To minimize impacts on existing residences located along the roads to the Mountain House community. <br /> "Policy: <br /> "Outdoor use areas of existing residences that are projected to be impacted(i.e.,would experience an <br /> increase of five dB in the La)by project-generated traffic noise at buildout shall be protected from <br /> excessive noise. Individual residences could take the form of constructing soundwalls along the — <br /> roadways, soundproofing homes,or building barriers around specific portions of yards to provide <br /> shielded outdoor spaces. Because of the nature of the development in the area, solutions will have to be <br /> tailored to each specific situation,based on individual noise studies. — <br /> "Implementation: <br /> "A plan for mitigating noise levels at existing residences shall be submitted with each specific plan <br /> application. The plan shall identify the mitigation necessary to reduce exterior noise levels to an Ld„of 60 <br /> dB and interior noise levels to an Ld.of 45 dB or less." <br /> ► Mitigation Measure M4.14-3 <br /> The following should be added to Implementation(a)under Objective 6 under Mobile Source Noise Control — <br /> (Noise)(Appendix C). <br /> "A 500-foot wide on-site or off-site buffer would reduce noise levels generated by agricultural machinery <br /> and helicopters by approximately 20 dB and would significantly reduce the potential for noise impacts." <br /> EDAW College Park at Mountain House Specitic Plan III Draft EIR — <br /> Noise 4.13-12 San Joaquin County <br />
