O8O Facts in Support of the Finding Based upon cumulative development anticipated for the north Main Street area, these two intersections will operate at an unacceptable level of service which cannot be mitigated. VII. MITIGATION MEASURES FOR IMPACTS CONSIDERED TO BE LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT This section describes mitigation measures for those effects of the proposed Project which are considered to be less than significant and that, therefore, are not required under CEQA. However, these measures improve the Project and are acceptable under CEQA. Findings are not required for the effects determined to be less than significant. The impact categories determined to be less than significant and the mitigation measures incorporated in the Project are described below. WA TER QUALITY Adherence to regulatory compliance requirements would ensure that no sho~t- or long-term impacts to water quality occur. The following mitigation measure will help facilitate improvements of water quality: The project applicant shall comply with the Statewide NPDES Construction Permit by preparing a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), and the County-wide Municipal NPDES permit by preparing a separate Water Quality Management Plant (WQMP). Prior to the issuance of a building permit, the applicant shall submit to the City the SWPPP and WQMP which will both identify the specific BMPs that will be implemented to control pollutants in site runoff. TR,4NSPOR T,4 TION/CIR CULA TION The proximity of the regional bike trail along Santiago Creek to the proposed project would make bicycling a reasonable alternative travel mode for visitors to the Center. This would be particularly tree on weekends when families fi.om neighboring residential areas might choose to visit the Center by bicycle. The following mitigation will help facilitate the use of the bicycle trail as an alternate mode of transportation: 1. The applicant shall provide bicycle lockers onsite and access to the bike trail. Both vehicular and bus traffic added to existing plus entitled projects would result in acceptable levels of service C or better for area intersections. At buildout, the project would generate 86 a.m. peak hour trips and 446 p.m. peak hour trips. The following mitigation measures will assist with providiug fi~tt, rc area-wide traffic improvements:
