f. The applicant's geotechnical engineer shall conduct a detailed technical analysis of lots with common soil type and cut-fill characteristics and make specific recommenda- tions as to soil preparation and foundation type. 21. The applicant shall mitigate hazards relating to seismic activ- ity as stated in the EIR for the project. Such mitigations shall include the following: a. All potentially active faults shall be identified on the site prior to tentative map approval. Geologic investiga- tions, including trenching, shall be conducted by the certified engineering geologist to confirm the absence of active surface faulting within "Special Studies Zone" boundaries before permitting construction of structures for human occupancy within zone boundaries. The certified engineering geologist shall recommend necessary setbacks. b. Roads, bridges, and utility lines which cross an active fault trace shall be designed and constructed in a manner that recognizes potential surface displacement. Water, gas, and electric lines shall be equipped with automatic shut-off devices which operate if service is interrupted. c. No structure for human occupancy shall be located on or adjacent to an active or potentially active landslide. 22. The applicant shall mitigate impacts relating to erosion as stated in the EIR for the project. Such mitigations shall include the following: a. "State of the practice" construction methods for hillside developments shall be followed during grading operations to control wind and water erosion. b. Where necessary, natural creeks shall be armoured as required by the City Engineer subject to the approval of any other agency claiming jurisdiction. Visual and bio- logical effects shall be important considerations in the type of protection used. c. A long-term erosion maintenance plan shall be developed by the applicant's engineer and landscape architect, and shall be subject to the approval of the City Engineer. The plan shall include maintenance provisions by the homeowners association, which shall be incorporated in the CC&R's for the project. 23. The applicant shall mitigate impacts relating to groundwater as stated in the EIR for the project. Such mitigations shall include the following: a. All existing springs shall be shown on the tentative map. The specific details of mitigating the springs shall be determined prior to the approval of the tentative map. b. Surface drainage improvements shall be installed as re- quired by the City Engineer. Rev. 6/19/90 -17-
