Administrative Draft Environmental Impact Report Gill Medical Center Project The Project site is located in an agriculture setting north of Eight Mile Road between West Lane and Ham Lane. Site development does not have the potential to interfere with any adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan. There would be no impact. Mitigation Measures None required. Impact 4.11-7: The Project could expose people or structures, either directly or indirectly, to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving wildland fires. Impact Determination: less than significant Threshold. Expose people or structures, either directly or indirectly, to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving wildland fires. The Project site is currently in agricultural production and is developed with vineyards. The site is not located within a heavily wooded area nor is it surrounded by wildlands or forests.The site is almost entirely surrounded by agricultural land, with some industrial and residential uses adjacent the southern site boundary.The site is designated "Local Responsibility Area Unzoned" (LRA) by the Office of the State Fire Marshal. Furthermore CAL FIRE has determined San Joaquin County has no Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones in the designated LRA (CAL FIRE website. 2021.). The Project would not expose people or structures, either directly or indirectly, to a significant risk of loss due to wildfire and this impact is less than significant. See Draft EIR Section 4.22 Wildfire for further analysis of wildfire issues. Mitigation Measures None required. 4.11.4 Cumulative Impacts Cumulative hazardous materials effects could occur if past, present, and reasonably foreseeable probable future projects in the county, combined with the proposed Project, together could significantly increase risks from hazards and hazardous materials. However, most routine hazardous materials activities associated with cumulative development would likely involve relatively small quantities of hazardous materials both in interior and exterior settings. Any health or safety effects of routine hazardous materials use would likely be limited to the specific individuals using the materials and anyone in the immediate vicinity of the use. Interaction would not be likely to occur between these routine activities and similar activities at different sites. Cumulative health and safety impacts could occur if cumulative Project related outdoor or offsite hazards were to interact or combine with those of other existing and proposed development.This could occur through the following mechanisms: air emissions;transport of hazardous materials and waste to or from the county; inadvertent release of hazardous materials to the sanitary sewer, storm drain, or non- hazardous waste landfill; and potential accidents that require hazardous materials emergency response capabilities.Air emissions are addressed in Draft EIR Section 4.5 Air Quality. Cumulative development would be required to adhere to existing regulatory requirements for the appropriate handling, storage, Noise 4.11-11 October 2021
