Administrative Draft Environmental Impact Report Gill Medical Center Project that a large number of patients and employees would ride bikes or walk to the medical services provided by the Project, although some may. Thus, the source of Project GHG emissions most able to be mitigated includes energy consumption. Consequently, consistent with Policies PHS-5.14, NCR-5.11, and PHS-6.6, Mitigation Measures 4.10-1a and 4.10-1b are required. Following implementation of Mitigation Measures 4.10-1a and 4.10-1b, the Project would be consistent with the County General Plan Policies PHS-5.14, NCR-5.11, and PHS-6.6. Nonetheless, the Project would still conflict with the land use assumptions used by the County and SJCOG to develop the GHG emissions inventory in the County General Plan and mobile-source GHG-reduction strategies contained in the RTP/SCS, respectively. Consequently, this impact would remain significant and unavoidable. Mitigation Measures 4.10-1a: Provide Onsite Renewable Energy Production The Project shall provide onsite renewable energy production generation comprising at least 20 percent of the Project energy demand.The County shall verify compliance with this measure within the Project building plans and site designs prior to the issuance of building permit(s) and/or site plans (as applicable). The County shall verify implementation of this measure prior to the issuance of Certificate(s) of Occupancy. Timing/Implementation: During the construction period Monitoring/Enforcement: County of San Joaquin Planning/Development Services Division 4.10-1 b: Provide Electric Vehicle Charging Stations The Project shall meet the charging installation/charging ready requirements of the CALGreen Code.The Project Proponent shall include EV charging accommodations as specified in the CALGreen Code in building plans for review and approval by the County, prior to commencement of Project construction. Timing/Implementation: Prior to and during construction Monitoring/Enforcement: County of San Joaquin Planning/Development Services Division 4.10.4 Cumulative Impacts Climate change is a global problem.And GHGs are global pollutants, unlike criteria air pollutants and toxic air contaminants, which are pollutants of regional and local concern.Whereas pollutants with localized air quality effects have relatively short atmospheric lifetimes (about 1 day), GHGs have much longer atmospheric lifetimes of 1 year to several thousand years that allow them to be dispersed around the globe. It is generally the case that an individual project of this size and nature is of insufficient magnitude by itself to influence climate change or result in a substantial contribution to the global GHG inventory.
