related energy use. As a result, construction energy impacts would be considered less than significant. And because the Project would be consistent with energy efficient building standards and promote transportation energy efficiency, it would not result in the wasteful, inefficient, and unnecessary consumption of energy or preclude opportunities for improving overall fuel efficiency and future energy conservation. The Project also would not conflict with or obstruct a state or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency. As a result, operational energy impacts would be considered less than significant. (See Response to Comments 2-1,2-2; Energy Resources Technical Memorandum section 3.2.) V. FINDINGS REGARDING IMPACTS THAT ARE LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT WITH MITIGATION INCORPORATED The Revised Final SEIR determined that the Project has potentially significant environmental impacts in the areas discussed below, and identified feasible mitigation measures to avoid or substantially reduce some or all of the environmental impacts in these areas. Based on the information and analyses set forth in the Revised Final SEIR, all but five of the impacts of the Project will be avoided or substantially reduced to less than significant with identified feasible mitigation measures incorporated into the Project. The City Council agrees with the characterizations in the Revised Final SEIR with respect to all impacts initially identified as"significant" or"potentially significant"that would be rendered less than significant with implementation of the mitigation measures identified in the Revised Final SEIR and RMMRP. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines §15091(a), a specific finding is made for each impact and its associated mitigation measures in the discussions below. The City Council again ratifies,adopts and incorporates the full analysis, explanation, findings, responses to comments and conclusions contained in the Revised Final SEIR, including but not limited to the following: Air Quality Impact 4.B-1 Construction activities within the area of the Project would result in increased emissions of fugitive dust, criteria air pollutants, and TACs from construction activities. The Revised Final SEIR evaluates the impacts on air quality that would result from construction and operation activities that would take place within the area of the Project. The assessment includes the potential for the Project to violate an air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation, to result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the region is in non-attainment, or to expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, including odors. Air quality effects related to the Project are evaluated against State and federal ambient air quality standards, as well as the standards established by BAAQMD.
