AIR QUALITY AND NOISE Sample Clauses

AIR QUALITY AND NOISE. Air quality in the Hanapēpē area is not rated on the Air Quality Index provided by the Hawai‘i Department of Health, Environmental Health Division. However, the air quality in Hanapēpē is considered satisfactory and air pollution poses little to no risk. The Project area is surrounded by non-active agricultural areas and residential uses. Air quality in the vicinity of the Project is mostly affected by emissions from vehicular sources which emit carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons and other air pollutants. There are two potential types of air pollution emissions that could directly result in short- term air quality impacts during Project construction phases: (1) fugitive dust from soil excavation, aggregate processing and vehicle movement, and (2) exhaust emissions from on-site construction equipment. Indirectly, there also could be short-term air quality impacts from addition of construction vehicular traffic on Moi Road, from slow-moving construction equipment traveling to and from the Project site, and from a temporary increase in local traffic caused by commuting construction workers. Fugitive dust emissions from construction activities are difficult to estimate accurately because of their elusive nature of emission and because the potential for dust generation varies greatly depending upon the type of soil at the construction site, the amount and type of dirt-disturbing activity taking place, the moisture content of exposed soil in work areas, and the wind speed. On-site mobile and stationary construction equipment also will emit air pollutants from engine exhausts. The largest of this equipment is usually diesel-powered. Nitrogen oxide emissions from diesel engines can be relatively high compared to gasoline powered equipment, but the standards for nitrogen dioxide are set on an annual basis and are not likely to be violated by short-term construction equipment emissions. Indirectly, slow- moving construction vehicles on roadways leading to and from the Project site could obstruct the normal flow of traffic to such an extent that overall vehicular emissions increase. Noise levels in the area are fairly low and are primarily associated with vehicles traveling along the highway and Moi Road. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed Project will have short-term construction related impacts on noise and air quality, but impacts will be mitigated through best management practices, including Attachment – S5 STATE OF HAWAII SPECIAL ...

Air Quality Remarks Xxxxxx County, PA is in an attainment air quality status for all of the major pollutants: Carbon Monoxide (CO); 1-hour and 8- hour Ozone; and Particulate Matter (PM 10 and PM 2.5). The project does not include or directly affect any roadways for which the 20-year forecasted build Average Daily Traffic (ADT) will exceed 125,000 vehicles per day. It can therefore be concluded that the project will have no significant adverse impact on air quality. NOISE
