Responses to <br />Environmental Checklist <br />For CEQA Compliance <br />B. Would the project result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? <br />No Impact <br />Erosion refers to the removal of soil from exposed bedrock surfaces by water or wind. The effects of <br />erosion are intensified with an increase in slope, the narrowing of runoff channels and by the removal of <br />groundcover, which leaves the soil exposed. The project will not result in substantial soil erosion or loss <br />of topsoil as the project does not propose changes in the existing environment. With the exception of <br />landscaped areas, the project is predominately covered with asphalt parking areas. Therefore the <br />proposed project will not result in any adverse impacts to top soil or result in soil erosion. <br />C. Would the project result in the loss of a unique geological feature? <br />No Impact <br />According to the City's General Plan Land Use Element EIR, the project site does not contain any unique <br />geologic features. Therefore, implementation of the proposed project would not result in adverse impacts <br />to any unique geologic feature. <br />D. Is the project located on strata or soil that is unstable or that would become unstable as a <br />result of the project and potentially result in on-or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, <br />subsidence, liquefaction or collapse? <br />No Impact <br />According the City's General Plan Land Use Element EIR, the project site is located on soils that have <br />high shrink/swell potential, possible corrosion potential to uncoated steel and low corrosion potential to <br />concrete. However, since no new construction is proposed for this project, the soil conditions on the <br />project site will not provide a constraint on the proposed project. <br />E. Where sewers are not available for the disposal of wastewater is the soil capable of <br />supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems? <br />No Impact <br />The project site is an improved building site with an improved sewer system. In terms of geological <br />stability, the project will not require the expansion of additional sewer facilities. <br />VII. Hazards and Hazardous Materials <br />A. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, <br />use or disposal of hazardous materials? <br />B. Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substance <br />or waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? <br />C. Be located on a site which is located on a list of hazardous material sites compiles <br />pursuant to Government Code Section 659662.5 and, as a result, would it create a <br />significant hazard to the public or the environment? <br />75C-98 <br />
