90 d. The Focused GPU program EIR (pp. 4.10-22 and 4.10-23) concluded that impacts of Focused GPU-facilitated development related to flood hazards, tsunami, and seiche, including risk of release of pollutants, would be less than significant, and no mitigation is required. As analyzed in the Focused GPU program EIR (pp. 4.10-21 through 4.10- 23) and discussed in item (c)(iv) above, the project component site is not currently located in a FEMA-designated Special Flood Hazard Area. In addition, the project component site would not be affected by a tsunami or seiche due to its inland location (about three miles from the shoreline and approximately 45 feet above sea level). In light of this location, the impact of the 847 Woodside project component would be less than significant. This project component would be consistent with the analysis in the Focused GPU EIR because it would not create new impacts or increase impacts, and there is no new information of substantial importance for CEQA purposes. e. The Focused GPU program EIR (Focused GPU program EIR pp. 4.10-23 through 4.10-24) concluded that because future development facilitated by the Focused GPU, including the project component, would not utilize groundwater, and as a result there would be no conflict with or obstruction of implementation of a sustainable groundwater management plan from future Focused GPU development, the impact would be less than significant, and no mitigation is required. The project component would be required to comply with the County's stormwater runoff treatment standards, and would therefore be consistent with the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board Basin Plan, which designates water quality objectives for surface waters and groundwater and includes implementation programs to achieve water quality objectives. Also, the project would be required to comply with Redwood City Municipal Code Chapter 27A, which governs discharge of pollutants in water. In addition, as discussed in item (b), the project component is not in an area subject to a groundwater management plan and therefore would not conflict with a groundwater management plan. For these reasons, the 847 Woodside project component’s impacts would be less than significant. This project component would be consistent with the analysis in the Focused GPU EIR because it would not create new impacts or increase impacts, and there is no new information of substantial importance for CEQA purposes. CONCLUSION With regards to the issue area of Hydrology and Water Quality, the following findings can be made: (1) no peculiar impacts to the 847 Woodside project component or its site have been identified, (2) there are no potentially significant effects or off-site and/or cumulative impacts which were not discussed by the Focused GPU EIR, (3) no substantial new information has been identified which results in an impact which is more severe than anticipated by the Focused GPU EIR, and (4) no mitigation measures contained within the Focused GPU EIR would be required because the project component specific impacts would be less than significant. For these reasons, the hydrology and water quality impacts of the proposed project component would be consistent with the impacts identified in the Focused GPU EIR and this project component does not require additional environmental review under CEQA Guidelines section 15183.
