ATTY/RESO.0114/PC RESO CERTIFYING FINAL EIR – 557 E. BAYSHORE ROAD REV: 12-09-22 VR Page 17 of 61 wildfire impacts. 21. Growth-Inducing Impacts. These findings regarding the Project’s potential growth- inducing impacts are based on the analysis on page 210 of the DEIR, which is hereby incorporated in its entirety. Impact GRO-1: The Project would not foster or stimulate significant economic or population growth in the surrounding environment. B. Findings Regarding Potentially Significant Impacts. The following potential environmental impacts of the 557 East Bayshore Road Project were determined to be potentially significant and to require mitigation measures to avoid their effects or to reduce their severity, as set forth in Chapter 3 of the DEIR, as incorporated into the EIR. The Planning Commission concurs with the conclusions in the DEIR, as incorporated into the EIR, and makes the following findings with respect to such potentially significant impacts. 1. Air Quality Impact AIR-2: The project could result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard. Mitigation Measures. EIR Mitigation Measures AIR-2.1 & AIR-2.2 will be implemented for the Project as provided in the MMRP. Findings Regarding Impact AIR-2. The Planning Commission finds that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation Measures AIR-2.1 & AIR-2.2 into the Project would substantially lessen the severity of Impact AIR-2, such that this impact would be less than significant, because Mitigation Measures AIR-2.1 and AIR-2.2 requires all construction activities to occur in compliance with the Bay Area Air Quality District’s best management practices, which the District has determined reduce the health risks associated with fugitive dust from construction activities to acceptable levels. The measures also require certain construction equipment to meet U.S. EPA Tier 4 emission standards for PM. This finding is based on the entire record of proceedings for the Project, including but not limited to the discussion and analysis set forth on pages through 32-46 of the DEIR, which includes a full statement of the impact and applicable mitigation measures and is hereby incorporated herein in its entirety. 2. Air Quality Impact AIR-3: The Project could expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations. Mitigation Measures. EIR Mitigation Measures AIR-2.1 & AIR-2.2 will be implemented for the Project as provided in the MMRP. Findings Regarding Impact AIR-3. The Planning Commission finds that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation Measures AIR -2.1 & AIR-2.2 into the Project would substantially lessen the severity of Impact AIR-2, such that this impact would be less than significant, because Mitigation Measures AIR -2.1 and AIR-2.2 requires all construction activities to occur in compliance with the Bay Area Air Quality District’s best management
