Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program – Hillside Alternative EXHIBIT B <br />California Water Tank and Pump Station Final EIR – February 2017 <br />City of Redwood City <br />Page 10 of 11 <br />ATTY/RESO.0017/PC RESO RECOMMENDING CERTIFY EIR – CALIFORNIA WAY WATER TANK <br />REV: 02-16-17 PR <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program <br />Impact Mitigation Measure Implementation <br />and Timing <br />Monitoring <br />Responsibility <br />Verified <br />Implementation <br />expose the public to noise <br />levels in excess of standards <br />established in the City’s <br />General Plan and/or Noise <br />Ordinance. <br />outfitted and maintained with noise- <br />reduction devices to minimize construction- <br />generated noise. Equipment and delivery <br />trucks shall not be left to idle for longer <br />than a few minutes. Stationary construction <br />equipment shall be located on-site at the <br />greatest distance possible from nearby <br />noise-sensitive receptors. If during <br />construction, noise levels at the property <br />boundary exceed the City’s noise ordinance <br />standard of 110 dB, the construction <br />contractor and/or City shall erect temporary <br />attenuating buffers to shield adjacent <br />properties from noise exceeding the <br />established standard. The attenuating <br />buffers may be removed as soon as the <br />construction noise levels fall under 110 dB <br />at the property boundary. <br />incorporate this <br />noise mitigation <br />measure into all <br />appropriate bid, <br />contract, and <br />engineering and site <br />plan (e.g. building, <br />grading, <br />improvement plans) <br />documents. <br />Timing: Prior to <br />any ground- <br />disturbing activities, <br />unless otherwise <br />specified. <br />shall review all <br />appropriate bid, <br />contract, and <br />engineering and site <br />(building, grading, <br />improvement plans) <br />documents for inclusion <br />of this noise reduction <br />measure. <br />The City shall <br />periodically inspect the <br />site to ensure the <br />construction process <br />incorporates this noise <br />control measure into <br />daily operations. <br /> <br />Date: <br />IMPACT NOI-1: <br />Construction activities could <br />expose the public to noise <br />levels in excess of standards <br />established in the City’s <br />General Plan and/or Noise <br />Ordinance. <br />Mitigation Measure NOI-2: Impact tools <br />(e.g., jackhammers, pavement breakers, and <br />rock drills), if used for project construction, <br />shall be hydraulically or electrically <br />powered wherever possible to avoid noise <br />associated with compressed-air exhaust <br />from pneumatically powered tools. <br />However, where use of pneumatic tools is <br />unavoidable, an exhaust muffler on the <br />compressed-air exhaust shall be used; such <br />mufflers can lower noise levels from the <br />exhaust by up to 10 dBA. External jackets <br />on the tools themselves shall be used where <br />feasible, which could achieve a reduction of <br />5 dBA. Quieter procedures shall be used, <br />Implementation: <br />The City shall <br />incorporate this <br />noise mitigation <br />measure into all <br />appropriate bid, <br />contract, and <br />engineering and site <br />plan (e.g. building, <br />grading, <br />improvement plans) <br />documents. <br />Timing: Prior to <br />any ground- <br />disturbing activities, <br />Monitoring: The City’s <br />Engineering Division <br />shall review all <br />appropriate bid, <br />contract, and <br />engineering and site <br />(building, grading, <br />improvement plans) <br />documents for inclusion <br />of this noise reduction <br />measure. <br />The City shall <br />periodically inspect the <br />site to ensure the <br />construction process <br />Initials: <br />Date: 8.A. - Page 59
