Environmental Checklist <br />Energy <br />Environmental Consistency Checklist Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 43 <br />6 Energy <br />Significant <br />Impact <br />Less Than <br />Significant or Less <br />than Significant <br />with Mitigation <br />Incorporated <br />No <br />Impact <br />Analyzed <br />in the <br />Prior EIR <br />Substantially <br />Mitigated by <br />Uniformly <br />Applicable <br />Development <br />Policies <br />Would the project: <br />a.Result in potentially <br />significant environmental <br />impact due to wasteful, <br />inefficient, or unnecessary <br />consumption of energy <br />resources, during project <br />construction or operation?□■□□ ■ <br />b.Conflict with or obstruct a <br />state or local plan for <br />renewable energy or energy <br />efficiency?□■□□ ■ <br />Analysis in Previous Environmental Document <br />The General Plan EIR did not address the issue of energy as a separate CEQA section because its <br />publication preceded the December 2018 CEQA Guidelines update, which expanded CEQA by <br />defining this issue area as a stand-alone resource category. The General Plan EIR captured its energy <br />discussion within the Utilities and Service Systems section and CEQA Mandated Sections discussion. <br />Impacts to energy were discussed under Section 14, Utilities and Service Systems, on pages 4.14-73 <br />through 4.14-81 and under Chapter 7, CEQA Mandated Sections, on pages 7-3 through 7-3. <br />The following describes the analysis included in the General Plan EIR and also provides a <br />streamlined review to determine whether there would be project-specific impacts that are either 1) <br />peculiar to the project or the parcel on which the project is located, 2) were not previously analyzed <br />in the General Plan EIR as significant effects, 3) are potentially significant off-site impacts and <br />cumulative impacts that were not previously discussed in the General Plan EIR, and 4) are now <br />determined to have a more severe impact than discussed in the General Plan EIR due to substantial <br />new information. <br />Regulatory Setting <br />City of San Leandro 2035 General Plan <br />Policy EH-3.4: Design, Construction, and Operation <br />Require new development to be designed and constructed in a way that reduces the potential <br />for future air quality problems, such as odors and the emission of any and all air pollutants. This <br />should be done by: <br />(a)Requiring construction and grading practices that minimize airborne dust and particulate <br />matter;
