substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR to a non-significant level . These mitigation measures are listed below. The identification of this as a significant unmitigable impact in Section 6 . 4 of the FEIR is incorrect . Statement of Fact : The impact will be reduced by the following : • Noise impacts during construction can be mitigated by controlling the hours of construction . This may be appropriate in some situations and must be considered on a case-by-case basis as construction proceeds in the new community. • All construction equipment powered by internal combustion engines must be properly muffled and maintained. The prudent selection of equipment , along with the use of proper mufflers , shall limit construction-related noise generated by a particular piece of equipment of 85 dBA when measured at a distance of 50 feet from the piece of equipment operating at its noisiest mode . • All stationary noise-generating construction equipment, such as air compressors , should be located as far as possible from existing residences . Such equipment must be acoustically shielded where possible. • Quiet construction equipment , particularly air compressors , must be selected whenever possible . • Although this is identified as a significant unavoidable impact on Section 6 . 4 of the FEIR, it is identified as mitigable to insignificance in Section 2 (page 2-57) . Although it is not possibly to fully mitigate this impact, with the addition of the mitigated measures, the remaining -short term impacts could be considered insignificant . • See FEIR, Section 4 . 16 . II . CUMULATIVE IMPACT MITIGATION MEASURES The following information is presented to comply with the CEQA Guidelines , which require a discussion of the potential cumulative impacts that could result from the Project in conjunction with other projects in the vicinity which are pending , have been recently approved, C2-77 0189r/0202r
