<br /> <br />Soil Investigations for Data Collection in the Delta <br />Initial Study/Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration 174 <br />c) For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land <br />use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a <br />public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people residing <br />or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? <br />Less Than Significant Impact. There are 20 soil investigation sites within two miles of <br />the Byron Airport. The Byron Airport is a public-use airport located approximately <br />one-half mile west of nearest Impact Area. The maximum noise from the closest soil <br />investigation site which is located adjacent to Byron highway is 120 dba at the rig. <br />The landscape surrounding the Impact Areas is considered open space with <br />physical barriers such as hills that would dampen the noise level as it travels away <br />from its source. Additionally, the noise would not be considerably different than that <br />of the vehicle traffic at Byron highway. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not <br />expose people residing or working in the vicinity of the Impact Areas to excessive <br />noise levels, resulting in less than significant impacts. <br /> <br />
