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, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate Yes No )( x X ~ REVISED 10/87 PAGE 6 OF8 , Yes No Maybe "" 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. ) x c. Does the project have impacts which are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable?

Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? x x C. DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION AND MITIGATION MEASURES (Attach sheets as necessary.) ~e.e '..r"'j'~Gt> \... ~ REVISED 10/87 PAGE 7 OF 8 PUBLIC WORKS NO. 90-05 JANUARY 30, 1990 C. DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION AND MITIGATION MEASURES. 1f. The proposal may result in the modification of Meyers Creek, because the minor grading at the creek site required to facilitate drainage may lead to increased flow into the creek. To circumvent the potential of soil erosion, the utilization of erosion barriers, such as sandbags, will be required. The Public Works Department has included the use of such erosion control measures as part of the project plan. 6c. & d. The project will result in development within the Greenbelt "B" Zone and a high fire hazard zone. Due to the nature of this project, there are will be no environmental impacts resulting from development in these zones. 6e. Because the proposal will result in development within a high wind area, there is the potential of excessive dust generation during construction. The watering of excavated soils will reduce any negative impacts to a level of nonsignificance. ( D. "" DETERMINATJON On the basis of this initial study, ~The proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the L:J environment and. a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. The proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, although there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described above have been added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I D D The proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
