Administrative Draft Environmental Impact Report Gill Medical Center Project addressed. Doing so would ensure Project consistency with the SJMSCP and related potential impacts are considered less than significant. Mitigation Measures The Proposed Project is required to comply with SJMSCP fee program, survey requirements, and Incidental Take Minimization Measures. No additional mitigation is required. 4.6.4 Cumulative Impacts The geographic area considered for analysis of biological resource cumulative impacts is San Joaquin County. Cumulative impacts to biological resources including special-status species, sensitive habitats, wetlands and other waters of the U.S.would occur primarily within the spheres of influence of existing cities as a result of cumulative development allowed by the incorporated cities. However as discussed in the San Joaquin County 2035 General Plan EIR, cities have General Plan policies that would reduce impacts on biological resources. Furthermore, cumulative development is required to comply with the SJMSCP, which would minimize impacts to special status species.As such, city general plan policies, the SJMSCP, and the regulatory mechanisms described in the regulatory setting of this Draft EIR would ensure San Joaquin County cumulative biological impacts are minimized and mitigated to a less-than-significant level. As discussed above, because they do not occur onsite, the Proposed Project is found to have less than significant or no impact on sensitive natural communities, waters of the U.S. and State, and fish and wildlife movement/migration corridors. With proposed mitigation, the project would have less-than- significant impacts on sensitive species and would also be consistent with local policies and ordinances associated with protection of biological resources. As such the project would result in a less-than- cumulatively-considerable impact on biological resources. No additional mitigation is required. Mitigation Measures None required.
