D 0 substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the EIR. Statement of Fact This impact will be reduced by the following: • Prior to construction, a qualified biologist shall be retained to conduct a survey for active nest sites. This survey shall be conducted during spring or early summer(April through July). • If an active nest is located within 500 feet of the construction area, the nest tree shall be avoided during the nesting season (March through June 15) until any young have fledged. If an active nest tree cannot be avoided, removal should occur after the breeding season (after June 15 and before March 1). C. TRAFFIC i C-1 Potentially Si nificant Impact* Increased Traffic at Roadways, Freeway Rams and Intersections Resulting From Project_(Phase I Interchange, Without Flyover Ramps) Conditions (Impact T-1) Under 2015 proposed project conditions with Phase I interchange improvements, traffic in the project area will increase. However, based on trip generation for assumed land uses and planned intersection, interchange, and roadway improvements, roadways and intersections in the project area are expected to operate at LOS D or better. This impact is, therefore, considered less than significant. Although this impact is considered less than significant, mitigation measures are recommended to ensure that traffic operation conditions remain at LOS D or better as the project site is developed. Findinci Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the EIR. Statement of Fact This impact will be reduced by the following: • Before each phase of development on the project site, the Department of Aviation in coordination with the Department of Public Works shall evaluate and monitor traffic operating conditions at the critical roadways and intersections identified in the traffic study. if it is determined that traffic operating conditions would not remain at LOS D or better with implementation of the planned development or if actual traffic operation conditions are not at LOS D or better, planned roadway and intersection improvement measurements shall be implemented before approval of additional development on the project site to ensure that operating conditions remain at LOS D or better. Planned improvements include measures such as the addition of turning lanes at intersections and the addition of lanes to roadways. Before each phase of development on the project site, the County shall coordinate with the City of Stockton and Caltrans on the evaluation and monitoring of traffic operating conditions on critical roadways and interchanges.
