conclusions set forth in the GPU FEIR, which determined that impacts related to landslides would be less than significant (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.4-10). Impact Finding: The Project would not have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of wastewater (Draft Supplemental EIR at 5.4-13). Facts in Support of Findings: The Project site is currently connected to the City's sewer system. As detailed in Draft Supplemental EIR Chapter 3.0, Project Description, the Project would install a new onsite sewer system that would connect to the existing 78-inch sewer in Sunflower Avenue. The proposed Project would not use septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems. As a result, no impacts related to septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems would occur from implementation of the proposed Project. Therefore, impacts related to Project buildout of the site would be less than the impact conclusions set forth in the GPU FEIR, which determined that impacts related to septic tanks would be less than significant (Draft Supplemental EIR at 5.4-13). D. Hazards and Hazardous Materials Impact Finding: The Project would not be located on a site that is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, create a significant hazard to the public or the environment (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.6-26). Facts in Support of Findings: The Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (included as Appendix J to the Draft Supplemental EIR) that was conducted database searches to determine if the Project area or any nearby properties are identified as currently having hazardous materials. The record searches determined that although the site has a history of various uses and identified as previously generating hazardous wastes and clean-up activities, the Project site is not located on or near by a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5. As a result, impacts related to hazards from being located on or adjacent to a hazardous materials site would not occur from implementation of the proposed Project (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.6-26). Impact Finding: The Project would not expose people or structures either directly or indirectly to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving wildfires (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.6-29). Facts in Support of Findings: The Project site is located within an urban developed area and is not located within an identified wildland fire hazard area and is not an area where residences are intermixed with wildlands. In addition, implementation of the proposed Project would be required to adhere to the following chapters of the City's Municipal Code to reduce potential fire hazards: Chapter 8.2 Uniform Building Code, Chapter 8.4 Uniform Mechanical Code, Chapter 8.5 National Electric Code, and Chapter 14 City of Santa Ana Fire Code. Additionally, the Project would be in compliance with any further guidelines from the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) related to fire prevention and is subject to permit approval by the City's Building Division. Therefore, the proposed Project would not expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death from wildfires and no impacts would occur (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.6-29).
