Mitigation Measures AQ-1. Minimize Construction-Related Dust Emissions. The City of Stockton and San Joaquin County dust emissions are in compliance with pertinent regulations. shall ensure that construction-related d P P e9 Measures that may be implemented to achieve compliance include the following: • All exposed soil surfaces shall be watered in the morning and evening, and whenever dusty conditions are present. • Truck covers shall be used during the transport of soil, debris and fill materials. • Ground .cover shall be established on inactive portions of the construction site through seeding and watering. • Soil disturbing and transport activities shall be ceased during periods of high winds (greater than 20 mph average over one hour)when the above measures are not sufficient to suppress dust emissions. Tires of trucks leaving the construction site shall be washed. • Streets adjacent to the project site that are used by construction equipment and vehicles shall be swept at least once P Y g per da during construction to prevent entrainment of soil onto paved surfaces.
