Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event there is an enactment of, or change in, any law after the Effective Date of this Agreement which, in Processor’s reasonable determination, results in (a) a Governmental Authority requiring Processor to hold or acquire emission allowances or their equivalent related to the carbon dioxide content or emissions or the greenhouse gas content or emissions attributable to Producer’s Gas and/or the gathering, or transportation of such Gas (collectively, “Producer’s GHG Emissions”) or (b) Processor incurring any costs or expenses attributable to Producer’s Gas, including any costs or expenses for disposal or treating of carbon dioxide attributable to such Gas, or any other additional economic burden being placed on Processor in connection with or related to Producer’s GHG Emissions, including any tax, assessment, or other cost or expense (collectively, “Emissions Charges”), then (i) Producer will use reasonable efforts to provide any required emissions allowances or their equivalent to Processor in a timely manner (and shall indemnify and hold harmless Processor from against any Losses, including any expenses incurred by Processor in acquiring such allowances in the marketplace, arising out of Producer’s failure to so provide such allowances) and (ii) Producer shall be fully responsible for such Emissions Charges and shall reimburse Processor for any Emissions Charges paid by Processor within ten (10) Days of receipt of Processor’s invoice.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions. The Project is expected to have less than significant impacts on Greenhouse Gas Emissions.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Between 1990 and 2014, the greenhouse gas emissions increased by 7 percent. Carbon dioxide accounts for the majority of U.S emissions. Electricity generation in the U.S. is the major contributor of carbon dioxide followed by transportation. U.S. greenhouse gas emissions data is made available by two programs (a) Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks, and (b) the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program. In the former Program, national energy data, data on national agricultural activities, and other national statistics are used to account for total greenhouse gas emissions for all man-made sources. In the latter Program, annual emissions data from industrial sources are collected.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions. In accordance with the CEQA Air Quality Guidelines, Baseline will evaluate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from construction and operation of the proposed project. Because the size of the project is below the BAAQMD’s screening threshold for operational GHG emissions, Baseline will provide a qualitative analysis showing that the project would not result in any significant impact related to GHG emissions. Energy efficiency features of the proposed project, if any, will be taken into account in the qualitative analysis to demonstrate the project’s consistency with regional and local plans, policies, and regulations related to the reduction of GHG emissions. HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS A preliminary search of the State Water Resource Control Board’s GeoTracker database shows that there is a Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Cleanup Site near the project site. The case was closed as of March 1994. The hazardous materials section, to be completed by Baseline, will address all standard CEQA significance criteria and will include the following information and analyses: ■ Describe the general hazardous materials setting for the project site, including the historical uses of the project site and adjoining properties. ■ Review any readily available hazardous materials investigations prepared for the project site. ■ Describe hazardous materials regulations and programs that may apply to the project. ■ Describe other public health and safety issues related to emergency response, aviation, and wildfire hazards at the project site using the standard CEQA significance criteria. ■ Recommend mitigation measures, as necessary, to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels, if possible. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY Preliminary review of Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood maps indicates that the project site is located within an area of minimal flood hazard and not located within a 100-year flood hazard zone. Development of the proposed project could result in an increase in impervious surfaces, which would increase the volume and rate of stormwater runoff. The proposed project would also alter drainage patterns on the project site, which could result in on- and off-site flooding or erosion and sedimentation. Soil erosion during construction and urban pollutants from vehicle parking and landscaping chemicals could affect stormwater and receiving water quality. The project will be required to comply with applicable State and municipal stormwater permi...
Greenhouse Gas Emissions. The greenhouse gas (GHG) assessment for the proposed project will evaluate the potential impacts associated with the project’s generation of GHG emissions during construction and operations. GHG emissions attributable to the project will be estimated for the following sources: construction, area sources, mobile sources, energy consumption (electricity and natural gas), water consumption, and solid waste generation, consistent with the recommendation by the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) in its Technical Advisory: CEQA and Climate Change (2008). Construction- and operations-related GHG emissions will be quantified using the most recent version of the CalEEMod computer model. Since neither the City nor SCAQMD have adopted a threshold of significance that would be applicable to the project, the GHG assessment will evaluate the project’s emissions in the context of the State and local setting. In addition, ESA is aware that the City had adopted a Greenhouse Gas Reduction Plan (GGRP) in February 2013 that contains goals and policies that direct the City’s approach to climate change, including emission reduction targets and general emission reduction strategies. In accordance with State CEQA Guidelines Section 15183.5, jurisdictions are allowed to analyze and mitigate the significant effects of GHGs at a programmatic level by adopting a plan for the reduction of GHG emissions. In turn, future individual projects that are proposed in the City are allowed to tier from and/or incorporate by reference the existing programmatic review from the plan into the GHG cumulative impacts analysis in their project-specific documents. Based on guidance provided in the City’s GGRP, a project-specific environmental document that relies on the GGRP for its cumulative impacts analysis must identify specific GGRP measures applicable to the project, and how the project incorporates the measures. As such, the GHG analysis for the proposed project would include a demonstration of the project’s compliance with the GGRP. Furthermore, the project’s GHG emissions will also be discussed with respect to the goals and recommended actions of the State’s Climate Change Scoping Plan and other applicable state regulations. If it is determined that the project would need to include design features/mitigation measures to reduce GHG emissions, ESA will work with the Applicant team to identify all applicable measures.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Executive Order B-30-15 requires State agencies to consider climate change in their planning and investment decisions. To address Executive Order B-30-15, Caltrans has issued guidance for including GHG emissions calculations as part of the Project Initiation Document (PID) process. Caltrans is conducting project-level GHG performance evaluations using the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Infrastructure Carbon Estimator (ICE) Tool. Construction-generated GHG emissions include emissions resulting from material processing by on-site construction equipment, workers commuting to and from the project site, and traffic delays due to construction. The emissions will be produced at different rates throughout the project depending on the activities involved during the various phases of construction. The analysis focused on vehicle-emitted GHGs. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the single most important GHG pollutant due to its abundance relative to the other vehicle- emitted GHGs, including methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N20), hydrofluorocarbons, and black carbon. Based on project information available for environmental studies, the construction-related GHG emissions were calculated using the Caltrans Construction Emissions Tool (CAL-CET) 2020 version 1.0. CAL-CET estimated that for a construction duration of 24 months the total amount of CO2 produced due to construction would be 1,698 tons. Table 7-4 summarizes the construction-related emissions, including the total carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions. CO2 (tons) CH4 (tons) N2O (tons) CO2e (Metric tons) 1 Build Alternative Total Emissions 1,698 0.05 0.10 1569 Build Alternative Annual Emissions 849 0.03 0.05 785
