Responses to <br />Environmental Checklist <br />For CEQA Compliance <br />Findin No Impact. <br />Analysis: According to Orange County General Plan Figure VI-3, Orange County Mineral <br />Resources -Generalized, there are na known mineral resources that would be of <br />value to the region and/or residents of the state located on the lift station site. <br />Accordingly, no impact would result from project implementation. <br />B. Result in the loss of availability of a locally-imporfant mineral resource recovery <br />site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan, or other land use plan? <br />Findin4: No Impact. <br />Analysis: According to Orange County General Plan Figure VI-3, Orange County Mineral <br />Resources -- Generalized, there are no known mineral resources that would be of <br />value to the region and/or residents of the s#ate located on the lift station site. <br />Accordingly, no impact would result from project implementation. <br />XI. Noise <br />Sources: Building Specifications; OCGP Safety Element. <br />Would the project result in: <br />A. Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in excess of standards <br />established in the local genera! plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards <br />of other agencies? <br />Finding: 1-ess than Significant Impact. <br />Analysis: During construction of the proposed project, construction equipment and <br />activities likely would result in the exposure of nearby residential properties to <br />noise levels in excess of 55 dBA, which exceeds the City's noise standard for <br />residential properties. However, pursuant to Part 11, Chapter 18, Article VI, <br />Section 18-314(e} (herein, "Noise Ordinance"} of the City's Municipal Code, the <br />following activities are exempt from the City's standard of 55 dBA: "Noise <br />sources associated with construction, repair, remodeling, or grading of any real <br />property, provided said activities do not take place between the hours of 8:00 <br />p.m. and 7:00 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or any time on Sunday or a <br />federal holiday." Construction activities would be required to adhere to the <br />provisions of Article VI of the Municipal Code. Although nearby residential uses <br />could be exposed to noise levels in excess of 55 dBA, these impacts would occur <br />only during daytime hours, would be temporary in nature, and would cease upon <br />completion of the proposed improvements. As such, short-term construction <br />noise impacts are evaluated as a less than significant impac# of the proposed <br />pro}ect. <br />Long-term operation of the proposed lift station also is not anticipated to result in <br />the exposure of nearby residential properties to noise levels in excess of 55 dBA. <br />The primary source of noise associated with the proposed facility would be due <br />Psge 53 of 64 <br />75E-57 <br />
