<br />B. Would the project result in substantial soil erosion <br />or the loss of topsoil? <br /> <br />Less Than Significant Impact <br /> <br />Erosion refers to the removal of soil from exposed bedrock <br />surfaces by water or wind. The effects of erosion are <br />intensified with an increase in slope, the narrowing of <br />runoff channels and by the removal of groundcover, which <br />leaves the soil exposed. <br /> <br />Construction operations for the proposed project would <br />require the demolition, clearing, excavation, and grading <br />of onsite soils. The uncovered soils on the project site <br />could potentially result in erosion and sedimentation <br />impacts to onsite and offsite drainage facilities. This <br />potential impact could increase during periods of rain. To <br />reduce potential erosion impacts to a level considered less <br />than significant, the project would be required to comply <br />with the City's NPDES requirements for construction <br />activity. <br /> <br />C. Would the project result in the loss of a unique <br />geological feature? <br /> <br />No Impact <br /> <br />According to the City's General Plan Land Use Element EIR <br />the proposed proj ect does not contain any unique geologic <br />features. Therefore, implementation of the proposed project <br />would not result in adverse impacts to any unique geologic <br />feature. <br /> <br />D. In the project located on strata or soil that is <br />unstable or that would become unstable as a result of <br />the project and potentially result in on-or off-site <br />landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction <br />or collapse? <br /> <br />Less Than Significant Impact <br /> <br />According to the City's General Plan Land Use Element EIR <br />the project site consists of Metz Loamy Sand Soils that <br />have low shrink/swell potential, high potential for <br />corrosion of uncoated steel and high potential for <br />corrosion of concrete. Through the City's development <br />review process, the proposed project would required to <br /> <br />10 <br /> <br />31A-34 <br />
