Response to Draft Environmental Impact Report February 7, 2019 <br />Harbor View Development Project, Redwood City CA Page 2 of 7 <br />RESPONSES TO DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT <br />The DEIR provides a high-level summary of the environmental conditions associated with the <br />Site. Path Forward has reviewed the DEIR and this letter provides comments pertaining <br />primarily to: <br />• Hazardous Mitigation Measures <br />• On -Site Public Amenities theoretical alternative use to include an on -Site child day care <br />center and adult soccer field as part of the Development. <br />Hazardous Mitigation Measures <br />As noted in Section 4.7 and Table 2-2 of the DEIR, Mitigation Measure HAZ-1a states: <br />"Mitigation Measure HAZ-1a: Prior to the issuance of a grading permit, the Project <br />applicant shall implement the recommendations contained in the Project -specific Phase I <br />Assessment (RPS, 2018) and submit to the City evidence of approval of the Draft <br />Removal Action Workplan (RAW) by the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DISC) <br />that contains a Site Management Plan (SMP), Health and Safety Plan stamped by a <br />Certified Industrial Hygienist, a voluntary Dust Control Plan/Asbestos Dust Mitigation <br />Plan/Asbestos Air Monitoring Plan, a Waste Transportation Plan, and Construction <br />Quality Assurance Plan." <br />Path Forward notes that the Draft RAW (RPS 2018b) has since been revised and submitted to <br />the DTSC for approval. The revised Draft RAW (Path Forward 2018) includes the SMP, Health <br />and Safety Plan stamped by a Certified Industrial Hygienist, a voluntary Dust Control <br />Plan/Asbestos Dust Mitigation Plan/Asbestos Air Monitoring Plan, and Waste Transportation <br />Plan.' Path Forward has received email communication from DTSC that the Draft RAW has been <br />internally approved and will be subject to a public comment period prior to final approval. <br />With the exception of the recordation of the land use covenant (LUC), the recommendations <br />presented in the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) (RPS 2018a) will be completed <br />prior to or during development. We note that several of the recommendations in the Phase I <br />ESA have already been completed including the vapor intrusion/methane gas evaluation <br />presented in the Draft RAW (Path Forward 2018). Since the time the Phase I ESA was issued, the <br />Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) case associated with 410 Blomquist Street received <br />regulatory closure, and the LUST case associated with 320 Blomquist Street is in the process of <br />being closed. Additional information pertaining to these LUST cases are available on the State <br />of California GeoTracker online database. <br />As noted in Section 4.7 and Table 2-2 of the DEIR, Mitigation Measure HAZ-lb states: <br />1 As requested by the DISC, the Construction Quality Assurance Plan was incorporated into the SMP document in <br />the Draft RAW. <br />Project No.: 102-102-100 PATH ORWARD <br />
