106 Prior EIR Determination Effect Peculiar to Project Site? New Significant Effect? New Significant Off-Site, Cumulative Impact? New Information, More Severe Adverse Impact? DTPP EIR DTPP Plan-Wide Amendments SEIR Focused GPU EIR XII. MINERAL RESOURCES – Would the project: a) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of value to the region and the residents of the state? No Impact No Impact No Impact No No No No b) Result in the loss of availability of a locally important mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan? No Impact No Impact No Impact No No No No Documentation: Commercial Component: a. & b. No significant mineral deposits are identified in the DTPP area (DTPP program EIR p. 18-4) so implementation of the DTPP was deemed not to be an impact in the EIR. The DTPP Plan-Wide Amendments program SEIR (p. 18- 8) concurred with the DTPP EIR conclusion. The Commercial Component site similarly does not contain valuable or locally important mineral resources, nor will it consume extraordinary amounts of mineral resources. Implementation of the Commercial Component would not create an impact on mineral resources. The Commercial Component would be consistent with the analysis in the EIR/SEIR 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 Mineral Resources, the following findings can be made: (1) no peculiar impacts to the Commercial 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 EIR/SEIR, (3) no substantial new information has been identified which results in an impact which is more severe than anticipated by the EIR/SEIR, and (4) no mitigation measures contained within the EIR/SEIR would be required because the Commercial Component specific impacts would be less than significant. For these reasons, the mineral resources impacts of the proposed Commercial Component would be consistent with the impacts identified in the EIR/SEIR and this project component does not require additional environmental review under CEQA Guidelines section 15183. Housing Component: a. & b. No significant mineral deposits are identified in the Focused GPU planning area (Focused GPU program EIR p. 4.12-1) so implementation of the Focused GPU was deemed not to be an impact. The Housing Component site similarly does not contain valuable or locally important mineral resources, nor will it consume extraordinary amounts of mineral resources. Implementation of this component would not create an impact on mineral resources. The Housing 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 Mineral Resources, the following findings can be made: (1) no peculiar impacts to the Housing 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 Housing Component specific impacts would be less than significant. For these reasons, the mineral resources impacts of the proposed Housing 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.
