<br />City of Redwood City 4 Mitigated Negative Declaration <br />Sandpiper Elementary School Facilities Expansion November 2016 <br />C. Cultural Resources <br /> <br />Mitigation Measures: The following measures would be implemented in the unlikely event that <br />cultural resources or human remains are uncovered during construction of the proposed project: <br /> <br />MM CUL-1 In the event that cultural resources are found, all work within 50 feet of the find will <br />stop and a qualified professional archaeologist or paleontologist will examine the <br />find. If the find is determined to be significant, treatment recommendations will be <br />developed and implemented before earthmoving or construction activities can <br />recommence within the designated resource area. <br /> <br />MM CUL-2: In compliance with state law (Section 7050.5 of the Health and Safety Code and <br />Section 5097.94 of the Public Resources Code), in the event that human remains <br />are encountered during grading and construction, all work within 50 feet of the <br />find will stop and the San Mateo County Coroner’s office will be notified. If the <br />remains are determined to be Native American, the Coroner will notify the <br />Native American Heritage Commission to identify the “Most Likely <br />Descendant” (MLD). The District, in consultation with the MLD, will then <br />develop and implement a plan for treatment, study and reinterment of the <br />remains. <br /> <br />D. Geology and Soils <br /> <br />The following measure would reduce the potential for increased differential settlement to occur on the <br />project site to a less than significant level: <br /> <br />MM GEO-1 The proposed project would be designed and constructed using standard <br />engineering safety techniques and would implement all the recommendations <br />identified in the design-specific geotechnical report prepared for the project in <br />accordance with the 2013 CBC and other state regulations. The design-specific <br />geotechnical report, along with the design-level drawings, would be subject to the <br />City and the DSA review and approval process. <br /> <br />E. Noise <br /> <br />The following measure would reduce temporary construction noise impacts to adjacent residences to a less <br />than significant level: <br /> <br />MM NOI-1 <br />• Limit construction to the hours of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM on weekdays, and 9:00 <br />AM to 5:00 PM on Saturdays, with no noise generating construction on Sundays <br />or holidays. <br />• Control noise from construction workers' radios to the point where they are not <br />audible at existing residences that border the project site. <br />• Equip all internal combustion engine driven equipment with mufflers that are in <br />good condition and appropriate for the equipment. <br />7.A. - Page 24
