EXHIBIT A <br />Resolution No. _____ Page 41 of 76 <br />Certification of the Magnolia at the Park EIR <br />9.9.6 Degradation of Water Quality <br /> <br />Threshold: Would the Project otherwise substantially degrade water quality? <br /> <br />Finding: Less than significant impact. (DEIR, p. 2-7; Initial Study, pp. 40-43.) <br /> <br />Facts in Support of Finding: For the reasons discussed above and the reasons discussed in the DEIR and <br />the Initial Study, the Project would not otherwise substantially degrade water quality. (Initial Study, pp. <br />41-42.) This conclusion also applies, for the same reasons, to the Modified Project. <br /> <br />9.9.7 Flood Hazard Area Zones <br /> <br />Threshold: Would the Project place housing within a 100-year flood hazard area as mapped on a <br />federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map? <br /> <br />Finding: No impact. (DEIR, p. 2-7; Initial Study, p. 43.) <br /> <br />Facts in Support of Finding: The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance <br />Rate Maps (FIRM) for the Project site and vicinity (FEMA FIRM number 06059C0163) shows that the <br />site is shown adjacent to, but not part of, a 100-year flood zone associated with Santiago Creek (Zone <br />AE21). The Project site is identified on the FEMA map as “Zone X” and is not depicted within a 100- or <br />500- year flood zone. <br /> <br />For the reasons discussed above and the reasons discussed in the DEIR and the Initial Study, impacts <br />associated with this issue would be less than significant, and no mitigation is required. (Initial Study, p. <br />43.) This conclusion also applies, for the same reasons, to the Modified Project. <br /> <br />9.9.8 Structures That Impede or Redirect Flows <br /> <br />Threshold: Would the Project place within a 100-year flood hazard area structures that would <br />impede or redirect flood flows? <br /> <br />Finding: No impact. (DEIR, p. 2-7; Initial Study, p. 43.) <br /> <br />Facts in Support of Finding: As discussed above, the Project site is not located within a 100-year flood <br />hazard area, and it will not place any structure within a 100-year flood hazard area. <br /> <br />For the reasons discussed above and the reasons discussed in the DEIR and the Initial Study, impacts <br />associated with this issue would be less than significant, and no mitigation is required. (Initial Study, p. <br />43.) This conclusion also applies, for the same reasons, to the Modified Project. <br /> <br />9.9.9 Risk of Loss, Injury, or Death as a Result of Flooding <br /> <br />Threshold: Would the Project expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or <br />death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of the failure of a levee or dam? <br /> <br />Finding: Less than significant impact. (DEIR, p. 2-7; Initial Study, p. 43.) <br /> <br />2-71
