Visual Impact Assessment Griffith Energy Storage Project significant.After the equipment removal activities,the Project site will be returned to substantially the same condition as that which existed prior to Project development. Level of Significance: No significant impact. 6.4 Light and Glare Would the proposed Project create a new source of substantial light or glare that would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? The Project is not expected to create a substantial new source of nighttime lighting or daytime glare. The proposed Project will provide external safety lighting for both normal and emergency conditions at the primary access points. Lighting will be designed to provide the minimum illumination needed to achieve safety and security and will be downward facing and shielded to focus illumination in the immediate area.All lighting associated with the proposed Project will be subject to county approval and compliance with San Joaquin County requirements.With the application of anti-reflective coatings,the Project would display overall low reflectivity.Therefore,the Project will have a less than significant impact associated with lighting and glare. Level of Significance: No significant impact. 4.1.1 Mitigation Measures The following mitigation measure is recommended to reduce significant impacts to aesthetics: AES-1. The following measures will be implemented as feasible to reduce visual impacts for Project components and activities: • Use and maintain,as feasible, non-reflective materials,finishes,surface treatments. • Maintain painted,treated,stained,or coated surfaces properly. • Direct lights properly to eliminate light spill and trespass. • Use timers or motion sensors, as feasible, on all project lighting to minimize unnecessary lighting. • Minimize lighting usage,as feasible,during construction and operations.
