<br />~~fA <br /> <br />Responses to <br />Environmental Checklist <br />For CEQA Compliance <br /> <br />MINERAL RESOURCES <br /> <br />A. Result in the loss of availability of a locally important mineral resource recovery site <br />delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan? <br /> <br />No Impact <br /> <br />The City's General Plan Land Use Element EIR identifies that there are no areas in Santa Ana that <br />contains Significant Mineral Aggregate Resource Areas. Therefore, approval of the proposed ordinance <br />would not result in adverse impacts to any significant mineral resource. <br /> <br />NOISE <br /> <br />A. Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in excess of standards established in <br />local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies. <br />B. A substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above <br />levels existing without the project. <br />C. Exposure of persons to or generation of excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne <br />noise levels. <br />D. A substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity <br />above levels existing without project. <br /> <br />No Impact <br /> <br />Approval of the proposed amendment to the Municipal Code to establish an ordinance for the regulation of <br />indoor sporting facilities would not result in any long-term noise or ground borne vibration impacts, in that <br />the proposed ordinance would not involve any activities that would emit long term operation noise impacts <br />or short term construction related noise impacts. Through the conditional use permit process, future <br />indoor sporting facilities implemented under the proposed ordinance would be evaluated for potential <br />noise impacts and would be subject to the City's noise standards. <br /> <br />E. For a project located within an airport land use plan or where such a plan has not been <br />adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project <br />expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? <br /> <br />No Impact <br /> <br />According to the Orange County Airport Environs Land Use Plan portions of Santa Ana are impacted by <br />aircraft noise. Approval of the amendments to the Municipal Code to establish an ordinance for the <br />regulation of indoor sporting facilities would not facilitate development within areas impacted with aircraft <br />noise. Through the conditional use permit process, future indoor sporting facilities implemented under the <br />proposed ordinance would be evaluated for potential aircraft noise impacts and would be subject to the <br />City's noise standards. <br /> <br />POPULATION/HOUSING <br /> <br />A. Induce substantial population growth in an area, either directly or indirectly through <br />extension of roads or other infrastructure. <br />B. Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, necessitating the construction of <br />replacement housing elsewhere. <br /> <br />75B-33 <br /> <br />9 <br />
