Impact <br /> Incorporated <br />a. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment <br />through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous ? <br />materials? <br />b. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment <br />through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions <br /> <br />involving the release of hazardous materials into the ? <br />environment? <br />c. Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely <br />hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one-quarter ? <br />mile of an existing or proposed school? <br />d. Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous <br />materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code <br /> <br />Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant ? <br />hazard to the public or the environment? <br />e. For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where <br />such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public <br /> <br />airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety ? <br />hazard for people residing or working in the project area? <br />f. For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the <br />project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working ? <br />in the project area? <br />g. Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an <br />adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation ? <br />Ian? <br />h. Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury <br />or death involving wildland fires, including where wildlands are <br /> <br />adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are ? <br />intermixed with wildlands? <br />I a) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, <br />or disposal of hazardous materials? <br />' Less Than Si_onificant Impact The ,existing Bender Ready-Mix facility includes machinery and <br />equipment that processes aggregate materials (e.g., sand and gravel) to produce concrete. The <br />concrete is prepared, loaded into truck-mounted rotating drum mixers, and hauled away for use at <br />construction sites. Generally, concrete is sold to independent truck contractors; however, Bender <br />Ready-Mix also delivers concrete directly to customers through its own fleet of trucks. <br />None of the aggregate or other raw materials utilized in the concrete production process are acutely <br />' hazardous. The primary concern related to the existing facility is the use of cleaners, lubricants, and <br />other chemicals required for maintenance of concrete processing equipment and on-site vehicle <br />maintenance activities. However, given the relatively small quantities of chemicals and lubricants <br />' utilized on-site and Federal, State, and local requirements regarding their safe transport, use, and <br />disposal, the existing Bender Ready-Mix facility does not result in significant hazardous materials <br />impacts. <br />' JULY 2011 4.8-1 HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS <br />31A-61
