SFPUC 2001 Alameda Watershed Management Plan

IV. MITIGATION MEASURESL. NOISE1.0 MITIGATION MEASURES PROPOSED AS PART OF THE PROJECTNone.2.0 MITIGATION MEASURES IDENTIFIED IN THIS REPORTThe following mitigation measures would reduce potential noise impacts related to constructionof Watershed facilities and operation of public access and use areas.1. Limit construction activities near sensitive receptors to the hours and days specified by theAlameda County General Plan Noise Element (generally between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m.,Monday-Friday).2. Require in construction specifications that the contractor select staging areas as far asfeasibly possibly from existing sensitive land uses. Activities within these staging areasshall conform to the time limitations established in Mitigation Measure 1, above.3. Require in construction specifications that the contractor maintain all constructionequipment with manufacturers’ specified noise-muffling devices.4. Require in construction specifications that the contractor maintain all stationary noisegeneratingconstruction equipment as far away as feasibly possible from sensitive receptorsor in an orientation that minimizes noise impacts (i.e., behind existing barriers or storagepiles, etc.).These mitigation measures would reduce the potentially significant noise impacts resulting fromimplementation of the Management Plan to a less than significant level.M. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS AND HAZARDOUS WASTE1.0 MITIGATION MEASURES PROPOSED AS PART OF THE PROJECT1. In implementing any Management Plan management action that could result in significantphysical effects from construction-related exposure to hazardous materials and hazardouswaste, as shown in Table III.M-1, ensure all applicable Management Plan managementactions are implemented that are necessary to reduce the impact (see Table III.M-1).However, additional mitigation would be necessary to avoid potentially significant effects(see Section IV.M.2.0, below).2. In implementing any Management Plan management action that could result in significantphysical effects from operation-related exposure to hazardous materials and hazardouswaste, as shown in Table III.M-2, ensure all applicable Management Plan managementactions are implemented that are necessary to reduce the impact to a less than significantlevel (see Table III.M-2).NOP 96.223E: Alameda Watershed Management Plan IV-7 ESA / 930385January 2001
