Mandatory Findings of Significance Sample Clauses
Mandatory Findings of Significance. As noted in the Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Hazard and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology and Water Quality, and Transportation sections above, the Project may result in potentially significant impacts and degradation to the quality of the environment. However, adoption and implementation of the Mitigation Measures in the IS/MND and MMRP would reduce these individual impacts to less than significant levels. Air Quality: The project will comply with all SJVAPCD Air Quality regulations. Implementing mitigation measures for Air Quality will lessen impacts to Air Quality to less than significant by implementing an approved SJVAPCD Dust Control Plan or Construction Notification form. Biological Resources: The pipeline route will run through private agricultural land. The presence of special-status plant and animal species on this site prior to ground disturbance cannot be positively determined. Based on habitat conditions surrounding the site with assumption that the site contains similar habitat characteristics, it is possible that special-status species (vernal pool branchiopods (fairy shrimp and tadpole shrimp and habitat), valley elderberry longhorn beetle, California tiger salamander, western spadefoot, giant garter snake, western pond turtle, nesting birds, tricolored blackbird, Swainson’s Hawk, Northern harrier, Bats (Pallid bats or any other CSC-listed bat species), San Xxxxxxx kit xxx, and American badgers species) may have been present prior to site disturbances. Mitigation measures for Biological Resources will be implemented to mitigate the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, reduce habitat for special-species, or cause special-species populations to drop below self-sustaining levels.

Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, substantially reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory?

Potentially Significant Impact Less than Significant With Mitigation Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact
b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? (“Cumulatively considerable” means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? Potentially Significant Impact Less than Significant With Mitigation Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact
c) Does the project have environmental effects that will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Potentially Significant Impact Less than Significant With Mitigation Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact Response to a-c: Further, none of the conditions identified in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 exist that would trigger the need to prepare a subsequent EIR to evaluate Project impacts or mitigation measures with regard to environmental impacts. Specifically, there have not been: (1) changes to the Project that require major revisions of the previous FEIS/EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified effects; (2) substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is undertaken that require major revisions of the previous FEIS/EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified effects; or (3) the availability of new information of substantial importance relating to significant effect or mitigation measures or alternatives that was not known and could not have been known when the FEIS/EIR was certified as complete.
Mandatory Findings of Significance. Responses to these questions shall be based on the impact discussions of the Initial Study and whether the project has any potentially significant impacts. The discussion shall reference incorporated and recommended mitigation measures as appropriate.
