M. Environmental Setting, Impacts,and Mitigations <br /> G. Air Quality <br /> regional vehicular air pollutant emissions. The regional air quality impact,therefore,is <br /> considered to be adverse,but not significant. <br /> Mitigation Measure G.6. <br /> None warranted. <br /> Cumulative Impacts <br /> Impact G.7. The project,by incrementally adding to regional air pollutant emissions, <br /> would have a cumulative air quality impact. (SIGNIFICANT) <br /> The project would incrementally add to air pollutant emissions from regional growth and <br /> development. Without the continued operation of the existing landfill,haul trips might have to <br /> travel longer distances to dispose of their wastes. An increase in total vehicle-miles traveled <br /> would result in an increase in regional vehicular emissions,which would be contrary to the <br /> SJVUAPCD's plans and efforts to achieve attainment status. The project however,by <br /> contributing significantly to dust and odor problems,would have a significant adverse <br /> cumulative air quality effect. <br /> Mitigation Measure G.7. <br /> Identified by this EIR <br /> Mitigation Measures G. and G.5.would reduce the project's contribution to cumulative air <br /> g P J <br /> quality conditions. Given that the project is a centrally-located landfill it would not add <br /> substantially to regional air emissions, and the cumulative air quality effect after mitigations <br /> would be less-than-significant. <br /> REFERENCES- Air Quality <br /> Air&Waste Management Association,Air Pollution Engineering Manual, 1992. <br /> California Air Resources Board,California Air Basins, 1975. <br /> California Air Resources Board, California Surface.
