05/20/2019 <br />the Project as provided in the MMRP. <br />Findings Regarding Impact AQ -2a. Based on the Final EIR and the entire record <br />before the City, the City Council finds that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation <br />Measure AQ -2a into the Project would substantially lessen the severity of Impact AQ -2a, <br />such that this impact would be less than significant, because Mitigation Measure AQ -2a <br />requires all construction activities to occur in compliance with the Bay Area Air Quality <br />District's best management practices, which the District has determined reduce the health <br />risks associated with fugitive dust from construction activities to acceptable levels. This <br />finding is based on the entire record of proceedings for the Project, including but not limited <br />to the discussion and analysis set forth on pages 4.2-23 through 4.2-24 of the DEIR, which <br />includes a full statement of the impact and applicable mitigation measures and is hereby <br />incorporated herein in its entirety. <br />2. Air Quality Impact AQ -2b: Construction activities associated with the proposed project <br />would exceed the Air District's regional significance threshold for nitrous oxides (NOx). <br />Mitigation Measures. Mitigation Measure AQ -2b will be implemented for the <br />Project as provided in the MMRP. <br />Findings Regarding Impact AQ -2b. The City Council hereby finds <br />that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation Measure AQ -2b into the Project would <br />substantially lessen the severity of Impact AQ -2b, such that this potential impact would be <br />less than significant, because Mitigation Measure AQ -2b requires all construction <br />contractors to use construction equipment that meets or exceeds EPA Tier 4 Final <br />emissions standards and to take other steps to reduce emissions of nitrous oxides from <br />construction equipment to satisfy the Bay Area Air Quality District's regional significance <br />threshold for such emissions. This finding is based on the entire record of proceedings for <br />the Project, including but not limited to the discussion and analysis set forth on pages 4.2- <br />24 through 4.2-26 of the DEIR, which includes a full statement of the impact and applicable <br />mitigation measures and is hereby incorporated herein in its entirety. <br />3. Air Quality Impact AQ -3: Construction activities associated with the Project could <br />cumulatively contribute to the non -attainment designations of the Air Basin. <br />Mitigation Measures. Mitigation Measures AQ -2a and AQ -2b will be <br />implemented for the Project as provided in the MMRP. <br />Findings Regarding Impact AQ -3. The City Council hereby finds <br />that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation Measures AQ -2a and AQ -2b into the <br />Project would substantially lessen the severity of Impact AQ -3, such that this potential <br />impact would be less than significant, because Mitigation Measure AQ -2a requires all <br />construction activities to occur in compliance with the Bay Area Air Quality District's best <br />management practices, and Mitigation Measure AQ -2b requires all construction <br />contractors to use construction equipment that meets or exceeds EPA Tier 4 Final <br />emissions standards and to take other steps to reduce emissions of nitrous oxides from <br />construction equipment to satisfy the Bay Area Air Quality District's regional significance <br />ATY/RESO.0052 CC RESO CEOA BROADWAY PLAZA—SOBRATO RESO.
