GEOLOGY AN D S OI LS Based on the geotechnical report completed for the project by Rockridge Geotechnical (2o17; Appendix B), the site is overlain with approximately z to 4 feet of undocumented fill soils. Additionally, moderately compressible clay layers extend approximately 30 feet below ground surface on the project site. As outlined in the geotechnical report, unstable soil layers beneath the project site could cause inadequate foundation supportforthe proposed building. The project would comply with existing state and local regulations, such as the California Building Code, and would implement General Plan Action EH -1.1..A, which requires the submittal and review of detailed soils and/or geologic reports priorto construction. Implementation of local regulations, General Plan Action EH -1.1.A, and compliance with the recommendations outlined in the geotechnical report (Appendix B) would reduce project impacts to lessthan significant. The TOD Strategy EIR found that geology and soil related impacts for TOD Strategy buildout would be less than significant, and the projectwould not have greater impacts on geology and soils. No furtheranalysis is needed, and the project would be consistent with the City's TOD Strategy EIR. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY The project site is vacant and level, with no existing stormwater infrastructure. The project site currently is l00% permeable, thus allowing for stormwater absorption. Some stormwater flows over the surface to Alvarado Street and Martinez Street where it enters an existing storm drain system, before ultimately discharging into San Francisco Bay. The proposed project is considered a Special Project in conformance with Appendix J of the Alameda County C.3 Stormwater Technical Guidance (April 11, 2o16). The project conforms to Category C "Transit -Oriented Development" because it meets the following criteria: (1) Be characterized as a non - auto related land -use; (2) Is a residential development project with density greater than 25 DU/Ac. The project qualifies for the following credits: 5o% Location Credit because 50% or more of the site is located within a 1/4 mile radius of an existing transit hub (San Leandro BART station); 2o% Density Credit because it is a residential project with greaterthan 6o DU/Ac; 20% Minimized Surface Parking Credit because o% of the post -project impervious surface is dedicated to at -grade surface parking. The net result is go% allowable Low Impact Development (LID) Treatment Reduction. The project is complying with Municipal
