Environmental Checklist Hazards and Hazardous Materials Final Initial Study – Negative Declaration 57 c. Would the project emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within 0.25 mile of an existing or proposed school? The CAP 2.0 is a policy document containing strategies to reduce GHG emissions. The CAP 2.0 does not include site-specific proposals and development, nor would it emit or handle hazardous materials. Implementing some CAP 2.0 actions may require future development or improvements, such as EV charging stations and building improvements related to energy efficiency. However, CAP 2.0 projects and actions would be reviewed to ensure the appropriate location of projects in relation to existing development in the City and would be reviewed for consistency with the Pleasanton General Plan, PMC, and applicable local, State, and federal regulations. Therefore, the CAP 2.0 would result in a less-than-significant impact related to handling of hazardous materials in proximity to schools. d. Would the project be located on a site included on a list of hazardous material sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment? The CAP 2.0 is a policy document containing strategies and supporting actions to reduce GHG emissions. The proposed CAP 2.0 does not include site-specific proposals and development, but CAP 2.0 actions could result in projects that could be located on listed hazardous materials sites. However, CAP 2.0 projects and actions would be reviewed for consistency with the Pleasanton General Plan, PMC, and would be required to comply with applicable local, State, and federal regulations related to hazardous materials sites. Therefore, the CAP 2.0 would result in a less-than- significant impact related to location on a listed hazardous materials site. e. For a project located in an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard or excessive noise for people residing or working in the project area? The City of Pleasanton does not contain any airports. The nearest airports to Pleasanton are the Livermore Municipal Airport and the Oakland International Airport, both located greater than two miles from the City boundary. Furthermore, the CAP 2.0 is a policy document that would not increase airport activity or result in additional habitable development or commercial development that could increase potential exposure of residents and employees to aircraft-related hazards. Therefore, the CAP 2.0 would result in no impact related to risks associated with location proximate to a public airport. f. Would the project impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan? The CAP 2.0 is a policy document intended to reduce GHG emissions. The CAP 2.0 does not involve site-specific development, nor would it facilitate new development that would interfere with adopted emergency plans. Implementation of some CAP 2.0 actions, such as Action S8 which would provide for the addition of new green stormwater infrastructure, may involve construction within the local right-of-way. Construction activities have the potential to require lane closures and may impact traffic and vehicle speeds on the affected roadways; however, these impacts would be temporary and access to roadways would be maintained throughout project construction. Furthermore, future projects involving work in the public right-of-way would be required to coordinate with the City to ensure appropriate construction staging and adequate vehicular and
