to mitigate anticipated impacts or object:inn , . In particular' the major issues raised when the Di actor 's position is at variance with recommendations and objec- tions raised in the comments must be addressed in detail giving reasons why specific comments and sug- gestions were not accepted, and factors of overriding importance warranting an override of the suggestions . Sec . 7 .9 Degree of Specificity . The degree of specificity required in an SIR will correspond to the degree of specificity in- volved in the underlying activity which is described in the EIR. (a) An EIR on. a construction project will necessarily be more detailed in the specific effects of the project than will be an SIR on the adoption of a. local general plan or comprehensive zoning ordinance because the effects of the construction can be predicted with greater accuracy . (b ) An EIR on projects such as the adoption or amendment of a comprehensive zoning ordinance or a local general plan should focus on the secondary effects that can be expected to follow from the adoption , but the SIR need not be as detailed as an .EIR on the specific construc- tion project that might follow . ' (c) The requirements for an EIR on a local general plan or element thereof will be satisfied by the general plan or element document, i .e . , no separate SIR will be required, if: ( 1) the general plan, addresses all the 1 points required to be in an EIR by Article 7 of these Guidelines and (2 ) the document contains a special section. cr a cover sheet :identifying where the general plan document addresses each of the points required . • 1 1 1 -24-
