The California Environmental
Quality Act states that if any of
the following can be answered yes
or maybe, the project may have a
significant effect on the
environment and an Environmental
Impact Report shall be prepared.
a. 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 cOTJmunity, 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?
b. Does the project have the
potential to achieve short
term, to the disadvantage of
long-term, environmental
goals? (A short-term impact
on the environment is one
which occurs in a relatively
brief, definitive period of
time while long-term impacts
will endure well into the
future.)

c. Does the project have impacts
which are individually
limited, but cumulatively
considerable? (A project may
impact on two or more separate
resources where the impact on
each resource is relatively
small, but where the effect of
the total of those impacts on
the environment is
significant. )
d. Does the project have
environmental effects which
will cause substantial adverse
effects on human beings,
either directly or indirectly?

C. DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION AND MITIGATION
MEASURES
9.d.
Present circulation patterns in the area may be altered. Any
existing easements will be reserved for emergency, utility,
and other vehicular access reducing potential impacts to a
level of non-significance.
13.a.
The project lies within an area of archaeological concern.
However, potential impacts are non-significant since the
proposal will not physically acter the site. Future
development of the site will require archaeological review
and will be subject to mitigation measures concerning potential
impacts identified by that review.
