The Downtown Precise Plan program EIR concluded that development occurring in conformance with the DTPP would be consistent with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) 2010 Clean Air Plan control measures and the BAAQMD CEQA Air Quality Guidelines because the projected rate of increase in new vehicle trips resulting from the DTPP would be less than the associated projected rate of population growth. Therefore, the impact of the DTPP was considered to be less than significant, and no mitigations were required. The proposed project is in compliance with all applicable DTPP standards, and as a result, no additional air quality impacts are anticipated. - Program PS-2: Dust and Emission Abatement. Adopt and enforce dust and emission abatement measures for construction activities based on the BAAQMD’s guidelines and other appropriate regulations. The project would be required to provide an erosion control plan for City review and approval prior to issuance of permits. - Program PS-4: Air Pollution Control Plans. Require developers to implement appropriate air pollution control plans to reduce dust and exhaust emissions from construction equipment. The project would be required to provide an erosion control plan for City review and approval prior to issuance of permits. - Program PS-5: Energy Efficiency Standards. Require new buildings and building additions to meet green building standards, consistent with the Green Building Ordinance. The project would be subject to the City’s Green Building Ordinance. - Program PS-6: Allowable Emission Sources. Require that potential air quality impacts from new development projects in the city be evaluated pursuant to the applicable BAAQMD CEQA Guidelines in effect at the time the City commences the air quality evaluation, including, as applicable, the establishment of specific overlay zones around existing and planned sources of toxic air contaminants. Only allow emission sources or odor sources if the minimum screening distances between sources and receptors established in the BAAQMD CEQA Guidelines or other appropriate source can be met, unless detailed project‐specific studies demonstrate compatibility with adjacent uses despite separations that do not meet the screening distance requirements. The project evaluated the potential air quality impacts as discussed in the Initial Study and found them to be less than significant. - Program PS-7: Sensitive Receptor Protection. Increase protection of sensitive receptors (facilities where individuals are highly susceptible to the adverse 8.A. - Page 74
