Mitigation Measures
detailed mitigation plan that requires monitoring during grading and
other earthmoving activities in undisturbed sediments; provides a
treatment plan for potential resources that includes data to be
collected; requires professional identification and other special
studies as appropriate; requires curation at an accredited museum
such as the San Bernardino County Museum for artifacts meeting
significance criteria; and requires a comprehensive final mitigation
compliance report, including a catalog of specimens with museum
numbers and an appendix containing a letter from the museum
stating that it is in possession of the materials.

After Mitigation
5.5 GEOLOGY AND SOILS
5.5-1: Buildout of the General Plan Less than significant No mitigation measures are required. Less than significant
Update would not expose people and
structures to substantial hazards from
strong ground shaking or from surface
rupture of a fault.
5.5-2: Buildout of the General Plan Less than significant No mitigation measures are required. Less than significant
Update would not expose people and
structures to substantial hazards from
liquefaction and related ground failure.
5.5-3: Adherence to the
Less than significant No mitigation measures are required. Less than significant
recommendations identified in the
geotechnical studies required for new
development associated with buildout of
the proposed General Plan Update would
ensure that risks from h earthquakerelated
hazards would be minimized.
