Central San LeandroBART Revitalization Strategy <br />Mitigated Negative Declazation <br />December 2000 <br />land use plans can be adequately mitigated as long as mitigation identified by staff is <br />implemented. The mitigation. measures are conditions of approval. <br />D. Although a majority of the project area is developed, some vacant and/or underutilized <br />parcels still remain, where it is unknown what soils/erosion impacts may occur (especially <br />in the vicinity of San Leandro Creek) and whether on-site soils could support future <br />development. Potential impacts related to soils stability and erosion can be adequately <br />mitigated as long as mitigation identified by staff is implemented prior to issuance of <br />grading permits for future developments. The mitigation measures are conditions of <br />approval. <br />E. Future projects that are proposed by the Revitalization Strategy have the potential to affect <br />existing hydrology and water :quality in the project area. Potential impacts related to <br />hydrology and water quality can be adequately mitigated as long as mitigation identified by <br />staff is implemented prior to issuance of grading permits for future developments. The <br />mitigation measures are conditions of approval. <br />F. The in-fill housing development proposed by the Strategy is at a higher density than that <br />anticipated by the Draft General Plan. Although the size of the project itself would not <br />warrant the need for asite-specific air quality report, the Bay Area is anon-attainment area <br />for ozone and particulate matter. Potential cumulative impacts related to air quality, as it <br />pertains to the non-attainment status for ozone and particulate matter can be adequately <br />mitigated as long as mitigation identified by staff is implemented prior to issuance of <br />building permits for the proposed BART in-fill housing project. The mitigation measures <br />are conditions of approval. <br />G. Site-specific information regarding the potential for hazardous materials is not available at <br />this time. Potential impacts .related to hazardous materials in relation to future <br />development/redevelopment of project sites can be adequately mitigated as long as <br />mitigation identified by staff is implemented prior to issuance of grading permits for future <br />site-specific developments. The mitigation measures are conditions of approval. <br />H. The project area has both the elevated BART tracks and the Union Pacific railroad tracks <br />running through it. The existing noise environment for those properties in proximity to one <br />or both of these tracks would likely exceed the maximum decibel level described in the <br />General Plan as acceptable or generally acceptable for residential development. Potential <br />impacts related to noise exposure°' can: be adequately mitigated as long as mitigation <br />identified by staff is implemented prior to issuance of building permits for future site- <br />specific developments. The mitigation measures are conditions of approval. <br />I. There is no evidence of archaeological resources within the project area. Potential impacts <br />to unknown resources can be adequately mitigated as long as mitigation identified by staff <br />is implemented during the construction phase for future site-specific developments. The <br />mitigation measures are conditions of approval. <br />2 <br />
