San Joaquin County Community Environmental Setting,Impacts,and Mitigation Measures Development Department Cultural Resources cultural resources through policies that preserve,protect, and create public awareness of such resources. Implementation of these polices is achieved under the auspices of the County museum through a heritage information program, historic preservation promotion and regulation,historic resource inventory, and historic property registration. Impact Analysis Construction and operation activities could result in direct and indirect impacts on previously undiscovered cultural resources caused by ground disturbance or vegetation clearing as part of project construction and/or as a result of project operations. Thresholds of Significance Criteria for determining the significance of impacts related to cultural resources were developed based on the environmental checklist form in Appendix G of the State CEQA Guidelines (14 CCR 15000 et seq.). An impact related to cultural resources was considered significant if it would: ■ Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource or a unique archaeological resource as defined in Section 15064.5. ■ Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a resource means the physical demolition, destruction,relocation, or alteration of the resource or its immediate surroundings such that the significance of a historical resource would be materially impaired. Actions that would materially impair the significance of a historical resource are those that would demolish or ` adversely alter those physical characteristics of a historical resource that convey its significance and qualify it for inclusion in the CRHR or in a local register or survey that meets the requirements of PRC 5020.1(k) and 5024.1(8).

The residence and structure are more than 50 years in age were evaluated to determine if they were historical resources for the purposes of CEQA. A more detailed analysis of the property's eligibility finding is located in the Cultural Resources Technical Study(Appendix G). The evaluation concluded the subject property does not appear to meet the criteria for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources,nor do the structures DeSilva Gates Quarry Project Draft Environmental Impact Report 3.E-7 AS ostns.os r
