The shrink-swell potential of potentially expansive soils on the site; specifically addressing appropriate recommendations for soil treatments, grading procedures and/or foundation designs, as appropriate, for the planned land use on the site. 11. The potential for compressible soils on the site; specifically addressing appropriate recommendations for soil treatments, grading procedures and/or foundation designs, as appropriate, for the planned land use on the site. The recommendations from the Final Geology and Soils Report will be incorporated into the grading plan for the project. 4.2.1.4 Level of Significance of Impact Related to Topography and Soils The adverse impacts of the One Broadway Plaza project related to topography and soils will be mitigated to below a level of significance. 4.2.2.1 Potentially Significant Adverse Impact Related to Fugitive Dust As described in detail in Section 3.2 (Topography, Geology and Soils) in the EIR, construction of the One Broadway Plaza project will create dust.
