Ordinance No. 2284 Page 19 of 40 If special -status bats are found utilizing a tree, structure, or equivalent for roosting, the Bat Mitigation and Monitoring Plan shall include permanent artificial roosting habitat installations that shall be adjacent to, and sufficient for, the species observed and associated ecology thereof. Effective buffer zones for the installation and monitoring of the artificial roosts shall be determined and established by a qualified biologist. • Erosion Control — Grading and excavation activities could expose soil to increased rates of erosion during construction periods. During construction, runoff from the Property could adversely affect aquatic life within the adjacent water features. Surface water runoff could remove particles of fill or excavated soil from the site, or could erode soil down -gradient, if the flow were not controlled. Deposition of eroded material in adjacent water features could increase turbidity, thereby endangering aquatic life, and reducing wildlife habitat. Implementation of appropriate mitigation measures would ensure that impacts to aquatic organisms would be avoided or minimized. Mitigation measures may include best management practices (BMP's) such as hay bales, silt fencing, placement of straw mulch and hydro seeding of exposed soils after construction as identified in the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). B. Project -Specific Implementation Measures for Compliance with MM N0I-1: • To the maximum extent practical, the following measures should be incorporated into the project construction operations: o Noise -generating construction activities shall not occur within the hours identified in Noise Ordinance Section 9.04.100. o Locate stationary construction equipment as far from adjacent occupied buildings as possible. o All noise -producing project equipment and vehicles using internal-combustion engines shall be equipped with manufacturers -recommended mufflers and be maintained in good working condition. o All mobile or fixed noise -producing equipment used on the project site that are regulated for noise output by a federal, state, or local agency shall comply with such regulations while in the course of project activity. o All construction equipment must meet California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMVO) noise standards and shall be equipped with muffling devices. o Electrically powered equipment shall be used instead of pneumatic or internal- combustion -powered equipment, where feasible. o Material stockpiles and mobile equipment staging, parking, and maintenance areas shall be located as far as practicable from noise -sensitive receptors. o Select routes for movement of construction -related vehicles and equipment so that noise -sensitive areas, including residences, and outdoor recreation areas, are avoided as much as possible o Project area and site access road speed limits shall be established and enforced during the construction period. o Nearby residences shall be notified of construction schedules so that arrangements can be made, if desired, to limit their exposure to short-term increases in ambient noise levels. o Designate a noise disturbance coordinator who will be responsible for responding to complaints about construction noise. The telephone number of the noise during disturbance coordinator shall be conspicuously posted at the construction site and shall be provided to the City of Pleasanton. Copies of the
