Mr.Jolley February 13, 2020 Page 18 of 15 Other Sections required by CEQA. The EIR will include other sections as required by the guidelines including a Summary of Effects Not Found to be Significant as well as the following topics: Aesthetics:The analysis will address the alteration of visual characteristics from the development of the proposed hospital facility, and the potential for increases in light and glare on adjacent uses within the vicinity of the project site. Agriculture and Forestry Resources:The analysis will evaluate potential direct and indirect effects on the existing surrounding agricultural uses that could result from implementation of the proposed project. This section will also discuss conversion of the property from agricultural uses to urban. Air Qualit : The analysis will address short-term construction-related and long-term operations related increases in criteria air pollutants and precursors (e.g., reactive organic gases [ROG], oxides of nitrogen [NOX], respirable particulate matter [PM10], and fine particulate matter [PM2.5]). Biological Resources: The analysis will evaluate potential direct and indirect impacts on biological resources, including riparian habitat, special-status fish, and other terrestrial and aquatic resources, that could result from implementation of the proposed project. Cultural Resources and Tribal Cultural Resources:A record search will be conducted at the Central California Information Center and pedestrian surveys of areas proposed for ground disturbance will be conducted by a qualified archaeologist. Any tribal or other cultural resources that are known or have the potential to occur on the project site will be assessed, and the potential impacts that may occur to known and unanticipated resources because of project implementation will be evaluated.The EIR will also document the results of required consultation and any agreements on mitigation measures for California Tribal Cultural Resources. Energv:The levels of electricity, natural gas, propane, gasoline, and diesel consumed in the construction and operation of the project will be estimated, and whether the project would result in the wasteful use of energy will be determined. Geology and Soils:The analysis will evaluate the potential for project-related construction and operations to cause impacts related to geology and soils, including mineral resources, which could result from the development of the proposed project. Greenhouse Gases and Climate Change:The analysis will evaluate the project's consistency with California's GHG reduction goals and related regulations and policies and will determined whether project generated GHG emissions would be result in a cumulatively considerable contribution to the global impact of climate change. Growth Inducement:The analysis will evaluate the project's direct and indirect impacts on economic and/or population growth including the construction of additional housing, in the project vicinity. Hazards and Hazardous Materials:The analysis will address the potential for project-related construction and operations to create significant hazards to the public and the environment through use of hazardous 18 ECORP Consulting,Inc.
