06 @ <br /> <br />The site shall be evaluated by a geotechnical engineer and all structures shall be subject to <br />specific structural review and approval by a structural engineer prior to construction. <br />Measures identified to safeguard against damage fi.om subsidence shall be incorporated into <br />the project design. The existing vacant Barker Brothers building shall be upgraded in its <br />seismic design to conform to current building codes. <br /> <br />Significant Effect <br /> <br />Construction activities associated with the proposed Project would result in increased wind and <br />water erosion. <br /> <br />Finding <br /> <br />Finding 1: <br /> <br />Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which <br />avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect identified in the <br />Final EIR. <br /> <br />Facts in Support of the Finding <br />The construction-related wind and water erosion impacts would be decreased to a less than <br />significant level through the implementation of the following mitigation measures: <br /> <br />Typical dust-suppression methods, such as watering, shall be practiced during grading <br />activities to minimize fugitive dust. These include: <br /> <br />ao <br /> <br />To minimize dust generated by construction operations, the applicant shall apply <br />water or dust suppressants to exposed earth surface during clearing, grading, <br />earthmoving and other site preparation work. Water shall be applied twice daily and <br />dust suppression materials should be applied as needed. <br /> <br />To minimize dust from construction vehicles, wheel washers shall be placed at the <br />project entrance at Main Street and vehicle wheels shall be hosed down prior to <br />exiting on Main Street. <br /> <br />Street sweeping of roads adjacent to the project site shall be done weekly by the <br />contractor during site grading to reduce fugitive dust from traffic. <br /> <br />The contractor shall plant all disturbed areas after the completion of site preparation <br />activities. <br /> <br />Significant Effect <br /> <br />Due to the underlain deep deposits of alluvium beneath the subject site, the proposed Project may <br />potentially be subjected to strong ground movements related to seismic activity of nearby faults, <br /> <br />Discovery Science Cenler EIR /Ipril 10, 1997 <br />City of 32mta Ana 5 Statement of Findings and Facts <br /> <br /> <br />
