Responses to Environmental Checklist For CEQA Compliance Approval of the proposed medical office development would have no impact on transport or disposal of hazardous material in that the proposed project would not involve activities that would emit hazardous or acutely hazardous material. Additionally, according to the City of Santa Ana Fire Department and the City's General Plan, the project site is not included on a list of hazardous material sites. Implementation of the proposed project would not create a significant hazard to the public or the environment. E. Is the project located within an airport land use plan or where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles where of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? F. For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? G. Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan? H. Expose people or structures to the risk of loss, injury or death involving wildland fires, including where wildlands are adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with wildlands? No Impact The project site is not located within an airport land use plan nor is it located within 2 miles of a public airport or a public use airport nor is it located within the vicinity of a private airstrip. Additionally, the site does not currently, and would not in the future, serve a function in any emergency response or evacuation plan. The proposed driveway access would be constructed per City codes to allow adequate emergency vehicle access. The proposed project would not constrain implementation of the City's existing Emergency Management Plan. Finally, the project and surrounding area are characterized by features typical of the urban landscape. There are no wildlands in the immediate vicinity of the proposed project site. Consequently, development of the proposed project would not result in the exposure of people or structures to hazards associated with wildland fires. Therefore, no impact would occur. VIII. Hydrology and Water Quality A. Violate Regional Water Quality Control Board water quality standards or waste discharge requirements? E. Create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned storm water drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted run- off? Less Than Significant Impact The City of Santa Ana implements the goals, objectives and requirements of the Basin Plan and Drainage Area Management Plan through the City's Local Implementation Plan (LIP). All construction contractors and subcontractors are required by contract provisions to comply with the conditions of the City's LIP, including the implementation of appropriate BMPs to control storm water runoff so as to prevent any deterioration of water quality. The proposed project is required comply with the requirements of the State NPDES Permit and to prepare a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), which would incorporate BMPs and water quality management practices. With full compliance with the WQMP, project impacts to water quality would be less than significant. 75A-46
