4.0 MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM TABLE 4-1 Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program Documentation Additional Permit Enforcement Implementation Schedule Impacts Mitigation Measures Responsible Party larger or continuous gaps at the base and have a minimum surface weight of 3.0 pounds per square foot (lb/ft 2 ). • Screw-type compressors should not be specified at the Project, due to the tonal nature of the noise emitted. However, if screw-type compressors cannot be avoided, the following measures may be necessary to attenuate tonal noise emissions: − Wrap all compressors with 1–inch-thick fiberglass or closed cell foam insulation. The wrap needs to completely enclose the compressors and all refrigerant piping. − Wrap this insulation with a noise barrier jacket, preferably metal (mass-loaded vinyl is also acoustically acceptable but may not weather well). This barrier jacket material should be selected for a nominal face weight of 0.5-1 lb/ft 2 . The noise barrier jacket should have a minimal size and number of openings. − Make the noise barrier jacket serviceable with provisions in the jacket fabrication for access to the service valves (suction and discharge) and other normal access ports. The jacket should also be made so that it may be removed and replaced without destruction of the insulation. − Insert silencers (pulse diffusers) in the compressor discharges to attenuate compressor discharge noise. Install a bank of acoustical louvers at the air intakes with an insertion loss of greater than or equal to 12 decibels at 500 hertz to control intake noise.

Noise produced by construction activities would be audible and exceed − Limit construction hours between 7:00 AM and Contractor existing noise levels in the vicinity of the Project site during the construction period, 7:00 PM, Monday through Saturday designated Noise constituting a significant but temporary noise impact. − Do not allow machinery to be cleaned past Disturbance 6:00 PM or serviced past 6:45 PM Monday Coordinator through Friday − Limit the allowable hours for delivery trucks to 8:30 AM—5:00 PM, Monday through Friday • Construction Equipment Mufflers and Maintenance. Properly muffle and maintain equipment powered by internal combustion engines. • Idling Prohibitions. Prohibit unnecessary idling of internal combustion engines. Equipment should be turned off when not in use. • Equipment Location and Shielding. Locate stationary noise-generating construction equipment such as air compressors as far as practical from nearby residences and other noise-sensitive land areas. If equipment cannot be located away from residences, temporary noise barriers, such as mass-loaded construction blankets, should be installed around the equipment during its use. 4-14 ES092008001PHX\ BAO\082970001
4.0 MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM TABLE 4-1 Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program Documentation Additional Permit Enforcement Implementation Schedule Impacts Mitigation Measures Responsible Party • Quiet Equipment Selection. Select quiet construction equipment, particularly air compressors, when possible. • Noise Disturbance Coordinator. Designate a ‘noise disturbance coordinator’ who would be responsible for responding to local complaints about construction noise. This person would most likely be the contractor or contractor’s representative. He or she would determine the cause of the noise complaint and would require that reasonable measures warranted to correct the problem be implemented. 3.11 Public Services N/A Community Facilities District record of establishment. During development of plans and specifications. City of Santa Rosa Department of Community Development. Mitigation Measure 3.11-2a: Participate in a Community Facilities District and comply with all City Fire Department Regulations and Policies. Impact 3.11-2: The Project would increase demand for fire and emergency services. Written approval of project plans and specifications. Prior to issuance of building permits and/or issuance of certificate of occupancy to the satisfaction of the Fire Chief. City of Santa Rosa Fire Department The Project shall participate in a Community Facilities District to provide the ongoing resources needed to serve the development and address cumulative development impacts to response times. To reduce the potential for fire service response to an emergency at the Project, all units shall have approved fire sprinkler systems. The installation of fire sprinkler protection throughout the Project would provide for immediate fire and life safety protection and assist in mitigating for the lengthening response times for fire and emergency apparatus and personnel. The Project would place further demands on fire and emergency services, particularly for medical emergencies. The Fire Department and Sonoma Life Support provide first responder and first responder paramedic services. Sonoma Life Support would transfer injured persons to the nearest hospital, either Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital or Kaiser Permanente Medical Center. Many elderly people have limited mobility, making it necessary to have additional fire resources on scene more quickly for rescue and rapid fire suppression. In addition, there is an increased need for emergency response to medical emergencies. Paramedic staffed engine companies provide a higher level of care for people with cardiac problems, trauma, and strokes. N/A Project plans and specifications. Written proof of onsite EMT employment. Prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy to the satisfaction of the Fire Chief. City of Santa Rosa Fire Department. Mitigation Measure 3.11-2b: Provide onsite Emergency Medical Technician qualified or equivalent personnel 24 hours per day, to the satisfaction of the Fire Chief. Fountaingrove Lodge will provide Emergency Medical Technician qualified or equivalent personnel 24 hours per day in the main “assisted living” building and Care Center. This would reduce the Fire Department’s need to respond to non-medical emergency calls in community care facilities, thereby allowing them to respond more quickly to other emergencies in the area. Care Center staff would have the ability to call 9-1-1 and medically assess residents to determine if the request is a medical emergency or a routine care assistance issue. 3.13 Transportation and Traffic Impact 3.13-1: Project traffic would increase delays at the Fountaingrove Parkway Mitigation Measure 3.13-1: Add a traffic signal on City of Santa Installation prior N/A Plans for three-legged signal at Thomas intersections with Thomas Lake Harris Drive East and West.
