<br />Long-term Operational Air Quality Impacts <br /> <br />The primary source of long-term operational emissions <br />associated with the proposed project would be generated by <br />vehicle travel to and from the proj ect site, A relatively <br />minor amount of gaseous emissions would also occur from <br />natural gas and electricity usage. The proposed project is <br />consistent with the General Plan. The long-term operational <br />emissions generated by the proposed project are consistent <br />with the air pollutant emissions projected within the <br />General Plan Land Use Element EIR. Implementation of the <br />proposed project would not result in additional air <br />pollutant emissions that would exceed air pollutant <br />emission projections evaluated within the General Plan Land <br />Use Element EIR, <br /> <br />Short-term constructed Related Air Quality Impacts <br /> <br />Construction operations associated with the proposed <br />project could potentially result in short-term increases in <br />particulate mater, and to a lesser degree increases in <br />carbon monoxide and ozone. Peak day construction emissions <br />for most pollutants arising from construction of the <br />proposed project would occur during the grading and <br />excavation phases. <br /> <br />The majority of the construction operations for the <br />proposed project would be interior tenant improvements. A <br />minimal amount of exterior work would occur. Less than <br />significant short-term air quality impacts would be <br />associated with implementation of the proposed project. <br /> <br />c. <br /> <br />Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of <br />any criteria pollutant for which the project region is <br />non-attainment under an applicable federal or state <br />ambient air quality standard? <br /> <br />Less Than Significant Impact <br /> <br />The proposed project would be consistent with the City's <br />General Plan and the local growth forecasts for the Orange <br />County sub region and regional emissions budget developed <br />by the Southern California Association of Governments for <br />the 1999 Air Quality Management Plan. SCAG has determined <br />that the air pollution impacts of any project that conforms <br />to local growth forecasts would be consistent with this <br />forecast and the regional air quality impacts would be <br /> <br />5 <br /> <br />7 5t!e.? f« <br />
