01/24/2011 Exhibit B monoxide levels — including development under the DPP -- would be below State and federal ambient air quality standards and thus would represent a less than significant impact for cumulative development. Impact 17n. Cumulative Toxic Air Contaminant and PM2.5 Exposure Impacts. Projected cumulative development activity could place sensitive receptors near sources of Sources of toxic air contaminant (TAC) emissions and PM25. Development under the DPP would be subject to New General Plan policies and programs that prevent new development from exposing sensitive receptors to TAC emissions and PM2. Therefore cumulative impacts related to these exposures would be less than significant. Impact 17o. Cumulative Odors Impacts. If approved and developed in accordance with the landowner's current proposal, the Cargill Saltworks project could place a substantial number of sensitive residential receptors near the Port of Redwood City, where industrial operations and organic processes could cause substantial odors, which could be considered a potentially significant cumulative impact. This potential cumulative impact will be considered and addressed in the environmental review process for the Cargill Saltworks development proposal. To the extent that development under the instant DPP proposal could contribute to any potential cumulative odor impact, however, implementation of Mitigation 12 -2 (Odor Impacts of Mixed Use Development) would minimize the exposure of mixed -use development within the DPP area to odors, rendering the DPP Project's contribution to this potentially significant cumulative impact to a less than considerable level. Impact 17p. Cumulative GHG Emissions Impacts. The GHG emissions of the DPP would be below the BAAQMD GHG emissions significance threshold and would represent a less than considerable contribution to the significant cumulative impact of global climate change, and thus a less than significant impact. Impact 17q. Hazard and Hazardous Materials. Development under the DPP could result in an increase in exposure to hazardous materials. However the New General Plan contains various policies and implementation programs that would reduce the cumulative hazards and hazardous materials impacts. In addition, with applicable federal and State laws, regulations, standards and oversight, and local policies and programs, the cumulative impact to the public or the environment from hazardous materials would be less than significant. Impact 17r. Cumulative Biological Resources Impacts. New development under the DPP together with other reasonably foreseeable development in Redwood City, could cumulatively affect biological resources. However, with mitigation, the effect of the DPP itself on biological resources is less than U:\Resolutions\2011 \Reso 15086 Exhibit B.doc 18 012011 Reso. # 15086 Muff #601
