San Joaquin County August 8, 2001 GP-01-2 & ZR-01-7 Page 2 ♦ Energy efficient design including automated control system for heating/air conditioning and energy efficiency beyond Title 24 requirements, lighting controls and energy-efficient lighting in buildings, increased insulation beyond Title 24 requirements, and light colored roof materials to reflect heat. ♦ Planting of deciduous trees on the south and westerly facing sides of buildings. ♦ Provide low nitrogen oxide (NOx) emitting and/or high efficiency water heaters. ♦ If transit service is available to the project site, improvements should be made to encourage residents to use it. If transit service is not currently available, but is planned for the future, appropriate easements should be reserved to provide for future improvements such as bus turnouts, loading areas, and shelters. ♦ Sidewalks and bikepaths should be installed throughout as much of the project as possible and should be connected to any nearby open space areas, parks, schools, commercial areas, etc. ♦ Natural gas lines and electrical outlets should be installed in patio areas to encourage the use of gas and/or electric barbecues. In addition, one of the issues that will arise in conjunction with any proposed demolition of the existing buildings in the project area is compliance with the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air pollutants (NESHAPS). Specifically, the primary air pollutant of concern is asbestos. To ascertain whether this project is subject to NESHAPS, the project applicant is advised to review the enclosed Asbestos — Compliance Assistance Bulletin, dated December 1994. Leaf Sexton is the Northern Region's District contact for the program and is available should you need further assistance. Thank you for the opportunity to comment.
