Pimlico Drive Turnout and Pipeline Project Environmental Checklist <br />Less than <br />Potentially Signitican[ Less than <br />Significant Wi[h Dlitigation Significant \o <br />Issnes Im act Incor orated Im act Im act <br />c) Directly or indirectly destroy a unique X <br />paleontological resource or site or unique geologic <br />feahlre'? <br />d) Disturb any human remains, including those ~ ~ ~X <br />interred outside of formal cemeteries? <br />Discussion <br />a and b) Less than Signitcant. There are no known archaeological or historical sites <br />identified in the project area. There is a moderate possibility that previously undiscovered <br />subsurface resources are present. Prehistoric resources may include chert or obsidian <br />flakes or tools, projectile points, mortars and pestles, ground stone artifacts, deposits of <br />shell, dietary bone, locally darkened midden (dark friable soil containing shell and bone <br />dietary debris), heat-affected rock or human burials. Historic resources may include; <br />stone or adobe foundations or walls, structures and remains with square nails, and refuse <br />deposits, found often in old wells and privies. <br />Project Measure CUL-l: Protection or Recovery of Data will be implemented as part of <br />the project to minimize potential adverse impacts to unknown cultural/archeological or <br />historic resources during construction. This would be ales-than-significant impact with <br />implementation of Project Measure CUL-1. <br />c) Less than Significant. No known unique paleontological resources or site or unique <br />geologic features are known to occur within the project area (C'ity of Pleasanton 1996). <br />Therefore, this would be less than significant. <br />d) Less than Significant. No Native American burial sites arc known to occur in the <br />project area. However, Project Measure CUL-2: Prehistoric Human Remains addresses <br />procedures that will be implemented in the event that human remains are discovered <br />during construction. 1'he potential for encountering and disturbing human remains will <br />be reduced to aless-than-significant level with implementation of Project Measure CUL- <br />2. <br />City of Pleasanton 26 Wmzler & Kelly <br />Draft Initial Shtdy/Proposed Negative Declaration August 2006 <br />04263501 <br />
