Exhibit A <br /> CEQA Findings of Fact for the Project <br /> The following findings, including impact statements, mitigation measures, findings, and facts in <br /> support of findings, are based on the full administrative record including but not limited to the <br /> FEIR which contains a greater discussion of each issue. <br /> Geology & Soil <br /> Impact: GEO-1: Implementation of the proposed project would likely result in increased <br /> erosion and loss of top soil until the project is constructed. <br /> Mitigation: GEO-1.1: All excavation and grading work shall be scheduled in dry weather <br /> months or construction sites shall be weatherized to withstand or avoid erosion. <br /> GEO-1.2: Stockpiles and excavated soils shall be covered with secured tarps or <br /> plastic sheeting. <br /> Finding: Implementation of Mitigations GEO-1.1 and 1.2 would reduce the project-related <br /> impact of temporary erosion & loss of top soil during construction to a less than <br /> significant level. <br /> Facts in Support of Finding: These mitigation measures are consistent with best management <br /> practice to reduce erosion impacts during construction. Construction during dry weather <br /> minimizes loss of topsoil due to rain. Should construction occur during the rainy season, <br /> mechanisms can be provided to reduce the impacts of erosion, such as covering exposed soils, <br /> installing silt fences to keep sediment onsite, using drain inlet protection, and laying straw <br /> wattles to maintain slope. <br /> Hydrology&Water Quality <br /> Impact: HYD-1: Construction activities would result in a temporary increase in pollutants <br /> in stormwater runoff. <br /> Mitigation: HYD-1.1: During construction, burlap bags filled with drain rock shall be installed <br /> around storm drains to route sediment and other debris away from the drains. <br /> HYD-1.2: During construction, earthmoving or other dust-producing activities <br /> shall be suspended during periods of high winds. <br /> HYD-1.3: During construction, all exposed or disturbed soil surfaces shall be <br /> watered at least twice daily to control dust as necessary. <br /> HYD-1.4: During construction, stockpiles of soil or other materials that can be <br /> blown by the wind shall be watered or covered. <br /> HYD-1.5: During construction, all trucks hauling soil, sand, and other loose <br /> materials shall be covered and/or all trucks shall be required to maintain at least <br /> two feet of freeboard. <br /> ATTY/RES0.0036/PC RESO CERTIFYING EIR—ORACLE DESIGN TECH HIGH SCHOOL <br /> REV:04-29-16 VR <br /> Page 4 of 31 <br />
