Section 5 <br />Alternative 3: Reduced Intensity Alternative <br />Under Alternative 3, one less injection well would be constructed. Therefore, <br />there would be fewer components of the project that could be susceptible to <br />seismic shaking impacts. The components of the project would be designed to <br />meet seismic design parameters of the California Building Code, Compliance <br />with the California Building Code Would reduce potential seismic shaking impacts <br />to a less than significant level. <br />Alternative 4: Pipeline Design Alternative <br />Under Alternative 4 potential seismic shaking impacts and risks would be similar <br />to the Proposed Project. The components of the project Would be designed to <br />meet seismic design parameters of the California Building Code. Compliance <br />with the California Building Code would reduce potential seismic shaking impacts <br />to a less than significant level. <br />Mitigation Measures <br />No mitigation measures required. <br />Level of Impact <br />Alternative 1: No adverse impact <br />Alternative 2: Less than significant adverse impact <br />Alternative 3: Less than significant adverse impact <br />Alternative 4: Less than significant adverse impact <br />IMPACT GEO-2: Would the project expose people or structures to potential <br />substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury or death <br />Involving liquefaction? <br />Alternative 1: No Federal Action/No Project <br />Under Alternative 1, the project would not be implemented. The project area <br />would continue to be within a liquefaction hazard area and could be subject to <br />potential liquefaction impacts. <br />Alternative 2: Proposed Project <br />According to the California Geologic Survey Seismic Hazard Zone Map for the <br />Newport Quadrangle, the project area is located within an area where historic <br />occurrence of liquefaction has occurred. The primary reason would be from <br />relatively shallow historically high groundwater level and loose to medium dense <br />sand and silt within the project area. Components of the Proposed Project would <br />be designed to meet seismic design parameters of the California Building Code <br />to withstand potential liquefaction impacts caused by an earthquake within an <br />Mid Basin Centennial Park Aj?cYo;tWroject Final FIR 5-85 <br />
