The EIR for the General Plan checked the Cal EPA website in January 31, 2008 to verify whether any hazardous materials could be found in Pleasanton. Those sites are listed on Table 3.13 -1 of the EIR for the General Plan,. That list does not identify any sites as being located in Hacienda. The City rechecked the Cal EPA in June 2009 and found two additional sites on the Cortese List: Nuclepore Corporation at 2035 Commerce Circle and Tenneco Chemical, Inc. at 5555 Sunol Boulevard." Neither of these sites is located within Hacienda. The City also checked for leaking underground storage tanks and found one listed at 4770 Willow Road, the ANG Newspaper site, in Hacienda.' The project sites are located more than 2 miles from the Livermore Airport, and are outside both the General Referral Area and the Height Referral Area The project sites are infill sites in an urban area and are not located close to any wildlands. -4- C Aemwebitte, accessCdjune 1, 2009 at: tttpp rwww. dtsc. ca .gov /SiteCleanup /Cortese_Irstcfm 5 Calepa website, accessed June 1, 2009 at: https: /geotracker.waterboards.ca.gov/ Draft, Subject to Revision 15 8/31 /2009
