Administrative Draft Environmental Impact Report Gill Medical Center Project 4.2.4 Format of the Environmental Analysis Each section in Chapter 4 begins with a description of the project environmental setting and regulatory setting as it pertains to the particular resource topic.The environmental setting serves as the baseline, which provides a point of reference for assessing the environmental impacts of the proposed project and alternatives and determining the significance of those impacts.The setting description in each section is followed by an environmental impacts and mitigation measures discussion. The impact and mitigation portion of each section includes impact statements, which are prefaced by an "Impact Number" in bold- faced type. The discussion that follows the impact statement includes the substantial evidence supporting the impact analysis and significance conclusion. If necessary, mitigation measures are then recommended to reduce potentially significant or significant impacts to less-than-significant levels, as feasible, and the significance of the impact after implementation of mitigation is described. Mitigation measures are organized numerically to correspond to the impact they address. For example, Impact 4.4-1 would be mitigated by Mitigation Measure 4.4-1 a, and if more than one measure is required to ensure the impact is mitigated to less than significant, it would continue this sequencing as 4.4-1 b and so on. A cumulative impacts section follows the existing plus project analysis. The cumulative impact analysis focuses on determining if the proposed project would result in a cumulative impact or make a cumulatively considerable contribution to cumulative impacts identified in the San Joaquin County 2035 General Plan EIR.
