Environmental Checklist Greenhouse Gas Emissions Environmental Consistency Checklist Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 55 8 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Significant Impact Less Than Significant or Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated No Impact Analyzed in the Prior EIR Substantially Mitigated by Uniformly Applicable Development Policies Would the project: a.Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment?□ □ □ ■ ■ b.Conflict with any applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purposes of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases?□ □ □ ■ ■ Analysis in Previous Environmental Document The General Plan EIR discusses greenhouse gas (GHG) emission impacts on pages 4.6-22 through 4.6-41. Impacts from generating GHG emissions that may have a significant impact on the environment would be less than significant. Impacts due to conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted to reduce GHG emissions would be significant and unavoidable. The following describes the analysis included in the General Plan EIR (the General Plan EIR) and also provides a streamlined review to determine whether there would be project-specific impacts that are either 1) peculiar to the project or the parcel on which the project is located, 2) were not previously analyzed in the General Plan EIR as significant effects, 3) are potentially significant off-site impacts and cumulative impacts that were not previously discussed in the General Plan EIR, and 4) are now determined to have a more severe impact than discussed in the General Plan EIR due to substantial new information. Regulatory Setting City of San Leandro 2021 Climate Action Plan The City of San Leandro 2021 Climate Action Plan (CAP) is an update to the 2009 and was adopted on July 19, 2021. The CAP framework for the City to reduce its community-wide GHG emissions in a manner consistent with State reduction targets for 2020, 2030, and 2050 through an expanded set of GHG reduction strategies and climate adaptation strategies. The CAP contains an inventory of the City’s GHG emissions from the transportation, energy, off-road equipment, waste, and water and wastewater sectors, as well as from Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) operations; an assessment of the populations and community assets most vulnerable to climate change; and goals, strategies, and actions to address climate change adaptation and GHG emissions. The 2021 CAP also presents a
