Mandatory Findings of Significance (Section 15065) 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 env ironment 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 community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate REVISED 10/87 Yes No x x x x x x ~ PAGE 6 OF 8 ~ o c:> o '....

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.) y x 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. ) x d. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? x C.

The site is located within a liquefaction zone. The project is not subject to Resolution 82-345 and, therefore, is not required to submit a liquefaction report. In the event of a large earthquake, the site may liquefy and the sewer lines could break. Effluent could be discharded into the ground. However, the amount spilled would not constitute a significant impact on the environment and the lines would be repaired. 3.d. The project may improve the quality of ground water within the area. Currently all residences and businesses are on septic or outhouses. with installation of sewers, there will be less discharge of waste into the ground. 5.b. There may be a temporary increase in exterior noise levels due to construction activities. This is not considered to be significant since it is temporary and construction hours will be limited as required by San Bernardino Municipal Code 8.54. 9.d.

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. The proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required. ~ o ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW COMMITTEE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO, CALIFORNIA Ann Larson-Perbix, Senior Planner Name and Title ~ ~AtilM- fuj~ Signature Date: ~Lfl./, ad) J9?f \... ~ REVISED 12/87 PAGE 8 OF 8
