Environmental Checklist <br />Hydrology and Water Quality <br /> <br />General Plan Consistency Checklist 61 <br />NO IMPACT <br />e. Would the project conflict with or obstruct implementation of a water quality control plan or <br />sustainable groundwater management plan? <br />The Water Quality Control Plan for the San Francisco Basin includes the designation of beneficial <br />uses for water within the basin, provides objectives for the protection of water resources, sets <br />effluent limitations, and provides programs for implementing goals of the plan (San Francisco Bay <br />Regional Water Quality Control Board 2017). The project includes three bio-retention basins, which <br />would improve the water quality of surface runoff from impervious surfaces on the project site. This <br />would maintain the beneficial uses of waters in the project vicinity by preventing the introduction of <br />new pollutants to the area. Therefore, this impact would be less than significant. <br />LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT OR LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT WITH MITIGATION INCORPORATED <br />Conclusion <br />The project would not lead to flooding, increased runoff, or the significant degradation of water <br />quality. The project would have no new or substantially more severe impacts to hydrological <br />resources and water quality, nor would there be any potentially significant off-site impacts, <br />cumulative impacts, or previously identified significant effects not discussed in the General Plan EIR. <br />Also, no previously identified significant effects were determined to have a more severe adverse <br />impact than discussed in the General Plan EIR.
