Bringhurst LLC at 990 Sycamore Road Initial Study and Negative Declaration single-family residential lots do not exceed this threshold and would thus not be expected to generate a considerable net operational increase in related criteria pollutant emissions. With respect to construction-related emissions, the project would involve grading and site improvements, which would be expected to generate short-term emissions of dust and construction vehicle emissions during the construction phase. The significance threshold specified in the BAAQMD CEQA Guidelines is 114 single-family dwelling units. The proposed project does not exceed this threshold and would thus not be expected to generate a considerable increase in construction-related emissions. Nonetheless, the project would be required to follow the standard construction-related measures specified by BAAQMD as project conditions of approval, including implementation of dust control measures such as site watering, covering of trucks hauling debris, soil or sand, and measures to minimize construction vehicle emissions, such as a requirement for construction vehicles to meet all current exhaust standards, which would further reduce these effects. Carbon monoxide impacts are measured by a project's consistency with a local congestion management plan and traffic volumes. The Circulation Element of the General Plan requires a Level-of-Service (LOS) "D" or better at intersections with the exception of the Downtown Area and at gateway intersections. The proposed development would add the traffic from four new single family homes, including three fronting on Sycamore Creek Way and one single-family home on Sycamore Road. The anticipated additional trips, i.e. 30 additional trips per day on Sycamore Creek Way and 10 additional trips per day on Sycamore Road (based on 10 trips per single-family home per day) would not impact the existing traffic flow on either street or exceed the LOS standard at nearby intersections. Thus, based on the above, the project would not be expected to generate operational or construction-related emissions that would result in a considerable net increase of criteria air pollutants or cause or contribute to a violation of an ambient air quality standard. As a result, these would be less-than-significant impacts. d) Land uses such as residences are considered to be sensitive receptors to poor air quality. The project development is a residential development surrounded by existing residential uses. There are no known sources of toxic air pollution or odors located within the vicinity of the project site. The nearest existing source is located at 6055 Sunol Boulevard (ThermoFisher Scientific), which is approximately 4,000 feet from the project site. This distance is outside the 1,000-foot threshold set by the BAAQMD for analysis of exposing sensitive receptors. Additionally, the project site is located more than 3,000 feet from Sunol Boulevard, a thoroughfare, and Interstate 680, outside the BAAQMD's highway and major roadway screening 17 ong the corridor here that is realistic in the near term and money can do that. She asked that staff look at other options along those lines, and how much of a contribution was realistic based on splitting the difference of the profit a land owner would receive by having the additional two parcels.
