City of Pleasanton Recycled Water Project <br />CEQA Addendum <br />Table 1 <br />Environmental Review of Proposed Project Changes <br />Environmental Issue Area <br />Where Impact(s) <br />were Analyzed <br />in <br />Prior <br />Environmental <br />Documents. <br />What were the <br />Environmental <br />Impact <br />conclusions for <br />the Original <br />Proposed <br />Project? <br />Do Proposed <br />Changes <br />Involve <br />New <br />Significant <br />or <br />Substantially <br />More <br />Severe <br />Impacts? <br />Any New <br />Circumstances <br />Involving New <br />Significant <br />Impacts <br />or Substantially <br />More Severe <br />Impacts? <br />Any New <br />Information <br />Requiring <br />New <br />Analysis or <br />Verification? <br />Are Prior <br />Mitigation <br />Measures <br />Sufficient for <br />Addressing <br />Any New <br />Potential <br />Changes or <br />Impacts? <br />IS/MND Mitigation Measures: <br />• Mitigation Measure BIO -1: Conduct Alameda Whipsnake Pre -construction Protocol Level Plant Surveys <br />• Mitigation Measure BIO -2: Conduct Breeding Surveys <br />• Mitigation Measure BIO -3: Conduct Nesting Surveys <br />Project Change Discussion: <br />The proposed changes to the Proposed Project would have the same impacts to biological resources as the Original <br />Proposed Project. The addition of booster pump station would not result in any new impacts to biological resources <br />as was evaluated in the IS/MND. As shown in Appendix C, on March 9, 2018 a biological habitat evaluation was <br />conducted at the proposed site at the Ken Mercer Sports complex and determined that the construction activities <br />associated with the addition of the booster pump station would be substantially the same as they were originally <br />described in the IS/MND. The potential exists that construction activities could potentially affect special status bird <br />species. However, existing Mitigation Measures BIO1 and B102 would reduce any impacts to less than <br />significant levels and would need to be done within 14 days of construction. The Revised Proposed Project therefore <br />would not have any incrementally significant effects on biological resources as defined in CEQA Guideline section <br />15162(a). <br />Cultural Resources <br />IS/MND <br />Pages 3-16 <br />through 3-18 <br />LTS/M <br />No <br />No <br />No <br />Yes <br />IS/MND Discussion: <br />The IS/MND concluded that the construction of the Proposed Project would not have any direct impacts on <br />identified historical and archeological resources. However, construction of the Proposed Project could have <br />significant impacts on unidentified and undiscovered buried cultural resources. However, with the implementation <br />of the following mitigation measures, any impacts would be reduced to less than significant levels. <br />IS/MND Mitigation Measures: <br />• Mitigation Measure CR -1: Halt work if cultural resources are discovered <br />• Mitigation Measure CR -2: Stop work if paleontological remains are discovered <br />• Mitigation Measure CR -3: Halt work if human remains are found <br />Project Change Discussion: <br />The proposed changes to the Proposed Project would have the same impacts to cultural resources as the Original <br />Proposed Project. The addition of the new booster pump station would not result in any new impacts to cultural <br />resources as was evaluated in the IS/MND. As part of the evaluation, a new cultural resources investigation was <br />conducted at the proposed site at the Ken Mercer Sports Complex. This investigation included a new records <br />search, pedestrian survey by a certified cultural resources specialist, and government -to -government outreach to <br />local Native American Tribes to meet the requirements of AB 52. Due to the sensitivity of cultural resources, this <br />information is not available for public review. However, the study determined that the construction activities <br />associated with the addition of a new booster station would not have any known impact on known cultural resources <br />would be substantially the same as they were originally described in the IS/MND. The Revised Proposed Project <br />therefore would not have any incrementally significant effects on cultural resources as defined in CEQA Guideline <br />section 15162(a). <br />April 2018 <br />3-9 <br />
