The Commission has gained a comprehensive and well-rounded understanding of the environmental issues presented by the Project. In turn,this understanding has enabled the Commission to make its decisions after weighing and considering the various viewpoints on these important issues. The Commission accordingly certifies that its findings are based on full appraisal of all of the evidence contained in the Final EIR, as well as the evidence and other information in the record addressing the Final EIR. In making these findings, the Commission has considered the opinions of other agencies and members of the public, including opinions that disagree with some of the analysis and significance thresholds used in the EIR. The Commission finds that the determination of significance thresholds is a judgment within the discretion of the Commission; the significance thresholds used in the EIR are supported by substantial evidence in the record, including the expert opinion of the EIR preparers and staff, and the significance thresholds used in the EIR provide reasonable and appropriate means of assessing the significance of the adverse environmental effects of the Project. D.1. FINDINGS REGARDING IMPACTS IDENTIFIED IN THE EIR TO BE LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT AND REQUIRING NO MITIGATION The following issues were identified during the scoping process as having the potential to cause significant impact. These issues were found in the EIR as having no potential to cause significant impact and therefore require no project-specific mitigation. In the following presentation, each resource issue is identified and the potential for significant adverse environmental effects is discussed. Where applicable,potential impacts are identified by correlating it with the environmental category used in the EIR. Transportation and Traffic Impact 3.2.1 The proposed Project would neither conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance or policy establishing measures of effectiveness for the performance of the circulation system, nor conflict with an applicable congestion management program, including, but not limited to level of service standards and travel demand measures, or other standards established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways. This would be a less-than significant impact. No mitigation is required(Final EIR,pp. 3.2-7 to 3.2-9). Noise Impact 3.4.1 Project operations (on-site noise sources) during the hours of 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. would not be expected to produce noise exposure in excess of 43 dB LVL.at the closest existing residential receivers to the north and east. This noise exposure level would not exceed the County's nighttime noise limits for outdoor activity areas of 45 dB hourly Leq and 65 dB L.. This would be a less-than significant impact. No mitigation is required(Final FIR,pp. 3.4-15). 7
