Related Bristol Mixed -Use Project CEQA Findings of Fact <br />conclusions set forth in the GPU FEIR, which determined that impacts related to landslides would be <br />less than significant (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.4-10). <br />Impact Finding: The Project would not have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of <br />septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems where sewers are not available for the <br />disposal of wastewater (Draft Supplemental EIR at 5.4-1 3). <br />Facts in Support of Findings: The Project site is currently connected to the City's sewer system. As <br />detailed in Draft Supplemental EIR Chapter 3.0, Project Description, the Project would install a new <br />onsite sewer system that would connect to the existing 78-inch sewer in Sunflower Avenue. The <br />proposed Project would not use septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems. As a result, <br />no impacts related to septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems would occur from <br />implementation of the proposed Project. Therefore, impacts related to Project buildout of the site <br />would be less than the impact conclusions set forth in the GPU FEIR, which determined that impacts <br />related to septic tanks would be less than significant (Draft Supplemental EIR at 5.4-1 3). <br />D. Hazards and Hazardous Materials <br />Impact Finding: The Project would not be located on a site that is included on a list of hazardous <br />materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, create a <br />significant hazard to the public or the environment (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.6-26). <br />Facts in Support of Findings: The Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (included as Appendix J <br />to the Draft Supplemental EIR) that was conducted database searches to determine if the Project <br />area or any nearby properties are identified as currently having hazardous materials. The record <br />searches determined that although the site has a history of various uses and identified as previously <br />generating hazardous wastes and clean-up activities, the Project site is not located on or near by <br />a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites pursuant to Government Code Section <br />65962.5. As a result, impacts related to hazards from being located on or adjacent to a hazardous <br />materials site would not occur from implementation of the proposed Project (Draft Supplemental EIR <br />at p. 5.6-26). <br />Impact Finding: The Project would not expose people or structures either directly or indirectly to a <br />significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving wildfires (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.6-29). <br />Facts in Support of Findings: The Project site is located within an urban developed area and is not <br />located within an identified wildland fire hazard area and is not an area where residences are <br />intermixed with wildlands. In addition, implementation of the proposed Project would be required <br />to adhere to the following chapters of the City's Municipal Code to reduce potential fire hazards: <br />Chapter 8.2 Uniform Building Code, Chapter 8.4 Uniform Mechanical Code, Chapter 8.5 National <br />Electric Code, and Chapter 14 City of Santa Ana Fire Code. Additionally, the Project would be in <br />compliance with any further guidelines from the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) related to <br />fire prevention and is subject to permit approval by the City's Building Division. Therefore, the <br />proposed Project would not expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death <br />from wildfires and no impacts would occur (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.6-29). <br />City of Santa Ana 7 <br />CEQA Findings of Fact <br />September 2024 <br />
