Chapter 2 CEQA Findings Impact Statement Evidence/Rationale Supporting Findings Mitigation Measures Findings Level of Significance after Mitigation Impact 4.8-9 Construction Temporary construction-related vibration MM4.8-1 through MM4.8-4 listed above, Finding 1 Significant and activities associated with the associated with future development would would also apply to this impact. The Agency finds that changes or alterations unavoidable proposed project would potentially result in high levels of vibration have been required in, or incorporated into, the generate or expose persons resulting in human annoyance and project which would avoid or substantially or structures to excessive groundborne vibration associated with lessen the significant environmental effect as groundborne vibration. construction equipment would potentially identified in the final EIR. damage historic structures. This would Finding 3 expose sensitive receptors in the project area to vibration impacts above the The Agency finds that specific economic, applicable threshold. Implementation of social, or other considerations make infeasible mitigation measures MM4.8-1 through additional mitigation. Specifically, the Agency MM4.84 would help to reduce this impact finds that no additional feasible mitigation through the use of BMPs, but not to a measures exist that would avoid or less-than-significant level. substantially reduce this impact. The weight of construction equipment as well the specific work performed thereby cause temporary, unwanted vibration. Cumulative Noise Impact Vibration from future development would MM4.8-1 through MM4.8-4 listed above, Finding 1 Significant and potentially combine with construction would also apply to this impact. The Agency finds that changes or alterations unavoidable vibration of other projects to result in a have been required in, or incorporated into, the potentially significant cumulative impact. project which would avoid or substantially Residential development associated with lessen the significant environmental effect as the proposed project and two related identified in the final EIR. projects, located within close proximity to Finding 3 the SCCRA would expose residents to " The Agency finds that specific economic noise levels exceeding the Desirable " , social or other considerations make infeasible Maximum standard. This is considered , additional mitigation. Specifically the Agency cumulatively considerable. , finds that no additional feasible mitigation measures exist that would avoid or substantially reduce this impact. The noise from heavy rail, vehicular traffic, construction equipment would be cumulatively significant. 2-38 Revised Station District Project and FOL Settlement Agreement Findings of Fact/Statement of Overriding Considerations
