However, it was determined that <br />compliance with the RWQCB NPDES Construction General Permit, which covers construction-related <br />erosion, would ensure that runoff from all sites would not worsen existing water quality <br />impairments, thereby indicating the sufficient control of erosion and siltation. The Prior EIR <br />identified that future individual development projects would comply with Goal 6 of the City’s Public <br />Facilities and Community Programs Element, which requires that development minimizes <br />stormwater runoff, and provision C.3 of the MRP, which would reduce impacts on erosion by <br />implementing measures such as construction BMPs, natural topography protection, and requiring <br />that stormwater facilities are maintained. Therefore, the Prior EIR concluded that buildout of the <br />Housing Element would have less than significant impacts with respect to on-site and off-site <br />erosion. <br />Analysis of Proposed Project <br />As required, the proposed project would comply with the ACCWP NPDES Permit and the RWQCB <br />Construction General Permit, both of which contain measures to minimize erosion. Because the <br />proposed project would disturb more than 1 acre of land, it would be required to implement erosion <br />and sedimentation control measures, such as a SWPPP, during construction and operation. In <br />addition, the proposed project would also be required to prepare and comply with Pleasanton <br />Municipal Code Chapter 9.14.080, Reduction of Pollutants in Stormwater, which states that all <br />construction activities must follow BMPs outlined in the most current CASQA construction BMP <br />manual in order to prevent any debris and dirt flowing into the City’s storm sewer system, and all <br />operations following construction must comply with project-specific guidelines or requirements <br />identified by the City’s operations services director.64 As such, the proposed project would not <br />introduce any new drainage impacts resulting in erosion or sedimentation not previously disclosed in <br />the Prior EIR. Impacts would continue to be less than significant, and no mitigation is necessary, <br />consistent with the Prior EIR. There are no proposed changes, new circumstances, or new <br />information that would cause new or more severe impacts. <br />Therefore, there are no environmental effects that are peculiar to the proposed project or the <br />parcels on which the proposed project would be located. Impacts would be less than significant and <br /> <br />64 City of Pleasanton. 2022. Pleasanton Municipal Code, Chapter 9.14.080.
