Munn&Perkins Quarry Excavation Permit In addition to the above-listed criteria,the following criterion is derived from common engineering practice to apply to the project-specific analysis presented herein: g. Cause substantial damage or wear of public roadways by increased movement of heavy vehicles. 3.2.3 Discussion of Criteria with No Transportation Traffic Impacts Analysis of the setting and Project characteristics relative to the significance criteria shows that the Project would have no impact on Transportation/Traffic with respect to criteria c),d),e),f)or g). The reasoning supporting this conclusion is as follows: C) The Project would not result in a change in air traffic patterns. j"y The Project is not located close to any airport, and would not place any object within the flight path for airplanes in the area. The Project would not result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that results in substantial safety risks; therefore,no impact would occur. d) The Project would not result in an increase in traffic hazards due to a design feature. The proposed nighttime operations of the Project would not involve redesign or reconfiguration of roadways. There would be no incompatible uses nor would there be roadway design changes. Therefore,the Project would have no impact on road hazards. e) The Project would not result in inadequate emergency access. Vehicle access to and from the Quarry site is via an ingress/egress access roadway that intersects East River Road;there are no other auxiliary roadways that provide access to the site.The Project would neither change this condition,nor contribute to any adverse consequences of the lack of secondary(emergency)access. Therefore,the Project would not result in inadequate emergency access. f) The Project would not conflict with adopted policies,plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation. The Project would not directly or indirectly eliminate alternative transportation corridors or facilities(e.g., bike paths, lanes,bus turnouts, etc.). In addition,the Project would not _ include changes in policies or programs that support alternative transportation. Therefore, the Project would not conflict with adopted policies,plans, or programs regarding public transit,bicycle,or pedestrian facilities, or otherwise decrease the performance or safety of such facilities.
