MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE. <br /> a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of ID • LI 0 <br /> the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or <br /> wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop <br /> below self- sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or <br /> animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range <br /> of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate impor- <br /> tant examples of the major periods of California history or <br /> prehistory? <br /> b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, U U • Li <br /> but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively <br /> considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project <br /> are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects <br /> of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the <br /> effects of probable future projects.) <br /> c) Does the project have environmental effects which will U • U U <br /> cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either <br /> directly or indirectly? <br /> a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially <br /> reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species. cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below <br /> self - sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or <br /> restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of <br /> the major periods of California history or prehistory? • <br /> Less Than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated. As described in this Initial Study, <br /> implementation of the proposed project has the potential to adversely impact special- status animal <br /> species and previously undiscovered cultural and paleontological resources and /or human <br /> remains. Implementation of the mitigation measures recommended in this Initial Study would <br /> ensure that construction and operation of the proposed project would not: I) degrade the quality <br /> of the environment; 2) substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species; 3) cause a fish <br /> or wildlife population to drop below self - sustaining levels; 4) threaten to eliminate a plant or <br /> animal community; 5) reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or <br /> animal; or 6) eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or <br /> prehistory. <br /> b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? <br /> ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable <br /> when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, <br /> and the effects of probable future projects.) <br /> P: \EGI080110EQA1Preda FINAL IS- MND.doc (0328111) 56 <br />
