measures outlined in Table 8021-2 of the 2001 SJVUAPCD Rule 8021 "Construction, Demolition, Excavation, Extraction, and other Earth Moving Activities"guidance (adopted November 15, 2001), as applicable, will be implemented at the Site (SJVUAPCD 2001 b). C. Result in cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors). No Impact. The proposed project is located within San Joaquin County. SJVUAPCD CEQA Guidelines state that if a project is found not to individually cause significant impacts to air quality, cumulative impacts should be determined based on an evaluation of the project's consistency with applicable General Plans and whether it would affect conformance of the General Plan with the regional air quality plan (SJVUAPCD, 2001 a). The proposed project would not affect the conformance of the County General Plan with the most recent regional air quality plan because it would not result in a permanent operational activity that would increase emissions in the area (such as contribute to the increase in population or increase long-term vehicular traffic). Therefore, the proposed project would not result in cumulative impacts to regional air quality. d. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations. Less Than Significant Impact. It is anticipated that the proposed project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project impact area evaluation (Cadrett 2003 and USFWS 1999).The project site is not located near or adjacent(within '%mile)to sensitive receptors (hospitals, schools, convalescent facilities, and residential areas)and therefore the potential for adverse air quality impacts to sensitive human receptors is unlikely. The proposed remediation project is also not anticipated to expose sensitive receptors to levels above the SJVUAPCD Thresholds of Significance for Toxic Air Contaminants. The project will comply with the SJVUAPCD Rule 8021 Control Measures for construction emissions of PM-10 contained in Table 8021-2 guidance as applicable. There are no sensitive receptors in the immediate vicinity of the project site. Therefore, temporary impacts due to construction activities would not have the potential to expose sensitive receptors to incremental increases in pollutant concentrations. The proposed project would not create operational emissions that could potentially affect air quality. e. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people. Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project will not create objectionable odors that could potentially affect a substantial number of people. Construction workers and personnel at adjacent sites may notice minor odors during the construction period. However, the potential impact due to objectionable odors released by excavation activities would be temporary and limited in areal extent. This would result in a less than significant impact. Findings of Significance: ❑ Potentially Significant Impact ❑ Potentially Significant Unless Mitigated X Less Than Significant Impact ❑ No Impact 12
