FLN2009-00006; 2450 Washington Avenue October 2011 <br />Mitigated Negative Declaration <br />shaking and liquefaction. Geotechnical and seismic design criteria must conform to <br />engineering recommendations in accordance with the seismic requirements of the 2010 <br />California Building Code (Title 24) and any amendments adopted in the San Leandro <br />Municipal Code. Additionally, because the project site is in a liquefaction Seismic Lazard <br />Zone, the project applicant will be required to comply with the guidelines set forth by <br />California Geological Survey Special Publication 117. <br />Mitigation Measure #12: Applicant shall comply with the NPDES requirements that must <br />incorporate permanent post- construction Best Management Practice (BMP) of the <br />California Regional Water Quality Control Board and the City of San Leandro Building <br />and Engineering Departments. The BMP shall be reviewed and approved by the City's <br />Engineering Department prior to the issuance of a Grading Permit. <br />Mitigation Measure #13: Applicant shall be required to completely remove all existing <br />surface and subsurface structures prior to grading. If any of the following are <br />encountered: concrete, septic tanks, gas and oil tanks, storm inlets, machinery, equipment, <br />debris and trash, these should also be removed, with the exception of items specified by the <br />owner for salvage. Ornamental trees to be removed should be properly grubbed to <br />adequately remove all major root systems. In addition, all underground structures must be <br />located on the grading plans so that proper removal may be carried out. <br />Mitigation Measure #14: A qualified geotechnical consultant shall be required to observe <br />the removal of subsurface structures and be notified in ample time to ensure that no <br />subsurface structures are covered and that the root systems from grubbing operations are <br />completely removed. If a qualified geotechnical consultant is not contracted to observe <br />demolition and removal of existing structures, backhoe investigation in the areas of <br />demolition shall be performed prior to commencement of mass grading. <br />Mitigation Measure #15: The applicant shall be required to excavate, remove and <br />recompact potentially liquefiable soil. In -site ground densification, for example, <br />compaction with vibratory probes, dynamic consolidation, compaction piles, compaction <br />grouting, etc., shall be conducted. Ground modification techniques, such as permeation <br />grouting, columnar jet grouting; deep soil mixing, stone columns, gravel or other drains <br />shall be implemented, and deep foundations shall be put in place to mitigate potential <br />liquefaction- induced settlement impacts. <br />Mitigation Measure #16: Following any required stripping and removal of any loose and/or <br />soft soil and undocumented fills, the top eight inches of exposed native ground for fill areas <br />shall be scarified, moisture conditioned as necessary, and compacted to a minimum relative <br />compaction of 90% at a moisture content of at least 2 percent above optimum, as <br />determined by ASTM D1557 -07 Laboratory Test Procedure. <br />Mitigation Measure #17: All recommendations set forth in the May 11, 2009 Geotechnical <br />Investigation shall be followed to ensure proper site preparation and grading of the project <br />site is implemented, including adherence to Best Management Practices (BMPs). <br />5 <br />
