sFr_TinN III RESOLUTION REGARDING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS NOT REQUIRING MITIGATION Section 15091 of the State CEQA Guidelines does not require specific findings to address environmental effects that an EIR identifies as "less than significant" where no mitigation is required. These findings will nevertheless fully account for all such effects identified in the Draft Supplemental EIR in this Section Ill. Thus, the City hereby finds that the following potential environmental impacts of the Project are less than significant and do not require the imposition of mitigation measures: A. Air Quality Impact Finding: The Project would not result in other emissions (such as those leading to odors) adversely affecting a substantial number of people (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.1-42). Facts in Support of Findings: The proposed Project would not emit other emissions, such as those generating objectionable odors, that would affect a substantial number of people. The type of facilities that are considered to result in other emissions, such as objectionable odors, include wastewater treatments plants, compost facilities, landfills, solid waste transfer stations, fiberglass manufacturing facilities, paint/coating operations (e.g., auto body shops), dairy farms, petroleum refineries, asphalt batch plants, chemical manufacturing, and food manufacturing facilities. The proposed Project would implement a new mixed -use development including residential, open space/recreation, retail, restaurant, and other commercial development. These land uses do not involve the types of uses that would emit objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people. During construction, emissions from construction equipment, architectural coatings, and paving activities may generate odors. However, these odors would be temporary, intermittent in nature, and would not affect a substantial number of people. The noxious odors would be confined to the immediate vicinity of the construction equipment. Also, the short-term construction -related odors would cease upon the drying or hardening of the odor -producing materials. In addition, all Project -generated solid waste would be stored in covered containers and removed at regular intervals in compliance with solid waste regulations and would not generate objectionable odors. Therefore, impacts associated with other operation- and construction - generated emissions, such as odors, would be less than significant (Draft Supplemental EIR at pp. 5.1-42 through 5.1-43). B. Cultural Resources Impact Finding: The Project would not disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of formal cemeteries (Draft Supplemental EIR at p. 5.2-15). Facts in Support of Findings: The Project site has been extensively disturbed and has not been previously used as a cemetery. Thus, impacts related to human remains are less than significant. In the unanticipated event that human remains are found during project construction activities
