03/25/2013 <br /> have no impact for the reasons described in the Final Program EIR. <br /> Reference should be made to the Draft Program EIR and Final Program EIR <br /> for a more complete description of the findings regarding these impacts. <br /> Specifically, the Board makes the following findings as to the following <br /> impacts: <br /> Air Quality Impacts: <br /> • Impact AQ-2: With an expected increase in the use of recyclable <br /> paper bags, the Proposed Ordinance would generate air pollutant <br /> emissions associated with an incremental increase in truck trips to <br /> deliver recycled paper and reusable carryout bags to local retailers. <br /> However, emissions would not exceed Bay Area Air Quality <br /> Management District (BAAQMD) operational significance thresholds. <br /> Therefore, operational air quality impacts would be Class III, less than <br /> significant. <br /> Impacts Related to Greenhouse Gas Emissions: <br /> • Impact GHG-1: The Proposed Ordinance would increase the number <br /> of recyclable paper bags used in the Study Area. Implementation of <br /> the Proposed Ordinance would incrementally increase GHG emissions <br /> over existing levels. However, emissions would not exceed thresholds <br /> of significance. Therefore, impacts would be Class III, less than <br /> significant. <br /> • Impact GHG-2: The Proposed Ordinance would not conflict with any <br /> agency's applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose <br /> of reducing the emissions of GHGs. Impacts would be Class III, less <br /> than significant. <br /> Hydrology and Water Quality Impacts: <br /> • Impact HWQ-2: A shift toward reusable bags and potential increase in <br /> the use of recyclable paper bags could potentially increase the use of <br /> chemicals associated with their production, which could degrade water <br /> quality in some instances and locations. However, bag manufacturers <br /> would be required to adhere to existing regulations, including NPDES <br /> Permit requirements, AB 258, and the California Health and Safety <br /> Code. Therefore, impacts to water quality from increasing bag <br /> processing activities would be Class III, less than significant. <br /> 8 <br /> ORD.#2393 <br /> FORMERLY MUFF#305 <br />
