8.A. - Page 110 construction activities, by in�orming construction personnel involved wlth site clearing and grading that there is a potential far discovery of pa]eontalogica2 materials,educating canstructrton personnel on indicators of paleontologicaI deposits, and by ensuring they are appropriateiy collected and documented by a qualified pa�eontologist, as describecf in Section 2.1 —Cultural Resources of the Draf}EIR on pages 32-49,which is hereby incorporated by reference. Geolo�v and Sails Impact: Impact G�O-2: The soils an the site are susceptible to tiquefaction. Deve�opment of lands subject to liquefaction represents the patential to expose people or structures to potential st�bstantial adverse efFects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death. Mitigation: MM GEO--2: Devetopment of the proposed project in compliance with a final site- specific, design-]evel geotechnica! report will ensure that construction of the proposec� project would not expose people or structures to patential substantial adverse efFects from seismic-related ground failure, including liquefaction, Prior to issuance of a grading or building permit,the project applicant shall subrnit to the City for review and approval a fina� site-specifc,design-level geotechnical repor�,to be prepared by a licensed professional. The geotechnical report shal] include recommendatians for grading, avoidance of settlemant,the effects of expansive soiIs,and differential settlement of infrastructare and buildings. The report shall also identify the specific design parameters for foundations systems to ensure that such systems r�vi11 not be affected by liquefaction that could occur on the site. Building plans submitted to the City s3�a11 incorporafe the faundation design parameters identified in the evaluation. Finding: Implementation of MM GE��-2 would reduce impacts frorn liquefaction to a less than significant level. Facts in Suppart of Finding: Implementation of MM GEO—2 would reduce the proj�ct's impacts from liquefaction by preparing the site soils and designing the project to negate the impacts of liquefactian, as described in Section 2.3 —Geology, Soils, and Seismicity of the Draft EIR on pages 64-75, �vhich is hereby incorparated by reference. Impact: Impact GEO—3: Structtires set back less than 30 feet fratt� creek toe of bank are at risk from sudden bank failure. A small partion of the home proposed on Lot 3 wauld encroach within 30 feet of the toe of bank. As proposed, strUCtures on proposed Lots l, 2, ar�d 4 wauld be sited a minimurn �f30 feet from the toe oft�e creek bank. Mitigation: MM GEO—3: The strUCture on Lot 3 is sited less than 30 feet from the toe of the Cordilleras Creek embankment, therefore the faundation shall be supported on a lo
