Cumulative Impacts. ‌ This analysis also considers potential impacts on resources from the 2020 DSL CCAA, when combined with other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable actions in the Covered Area. Reasonably foreseeable actions include planned or funded future actions that are reasonably certain to occur or continue occurring over the requested Permit term. These include reasonably foreseeable projects that would result in cumulative impacts as defined under the 1978 NEPA regulations (40 CFR 1508.7) under which this evaluation is being conducted. The primary past, present, and reasonably foreseeable actions in the Covered Area are the aforementioned Covered Activities (see Table 1). These actions, and their associated potential impacts, are anticipated to continue to occur regardless of this 2020 DSL CCAA. Other reasonably foreseeable actions not associated with the Covered Activities were identified through review of existing and approved statewide strategic plans; local and regional land use plans; government websites and geographic information system (GIS) data; county-level transportation plans; county-level water management plans; and regional conservation management plans. These include implementation of goals, objectives, and guidance to support agriculture and overall future growth and development; construction and operation of transmission pipelines and oil and gas ▇▇▇▇▇; construction, maintenance and operation of electric powerlines; upgrades to and expansions of existing roadway infrastructure; renewable energy development; and new and expanded water resource infrastructure to meet irrigation demands and address water shortages. These actions and projects are described in Table 8. Covered Species Texas Conservation Plan Conservation for the Dunes Sagebrush Lizard (TCP) All Covered Area Counties Voluntary conservation program that incentivizes private landowner participation through avoidance of DSL Habitat and the funding and implementation of Conservation Measures. The existing TCP Covered Area overlaps with the Covered Area of the 2020 DSL CCAA and includes activities associated with oil and gas and agriculture and ranching but does not establish specific conservation measures for sand mining and renewable energy operations.

Cumulative Impacts. A.1.13.1 CONTRACTOR shall evaluate the impacts of cumulative development on the resource issues evaluated in the EIR while working closely with County staff, and coordinate with other agencies as appropriate, to identify reasonably foreseeable related development based on existing land use plans and/or a list of cumulative projects (proposed, approved, and under construction).

Cumulative Impacts. Cumulative impacts are defined under NEPA as “the impact[s] on the environment that results from the incremental impacts of the action when added to other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future actions regardless of what agency (Federal or non-Federal) or person undertakes such actions” (40 CFR 1508.7). Cumulative impacts can result from individually minor but collectively significant actions that take place over a period of time. The cumulative impacts of the various activities within the scope of this EA vary little between the two alternatives. The differences between the two alternatives are related to the amount of voluntary habitat enhancement and protection measures that will occur through the Applicants’ forest management activities conducted according to Washington and Oregon Forest Practices Rules. This cumulative-impacts analysis focuses on the spotted owl conservation provisions and on forest management activities, because these are the focus of the SHA and the basis for the Federal action. The time period for analysis is the 60-year Permit duration. The direct and indirect effects of the Proposed Action Alternative on the spotted owl, spotted owl habitat, and other elements of the affected environment were described previously. To summarize, the Applicants’ forest management activities would be conducted according to Forest Practices Rules complemented with voluntary measures that include 1) harvest rotations that are longer than the what would occur under the No Action Alternative, 2) commercial thinning to accelerate spotted owl habitat development, 3) a snag conservation and development program, 4) the establishment of SSAs, and 5) spotted owl nest site protection. These additional forest management provisions are expected to result in the development, retention, and/or enhancement of forest habitat with the potential for use by spotted owls, as well as other fish and wildlife species. The effects of the Applicants’ activities are expected to result in a net conservation benefit to the spotted owl while no measurable effects on other elements of the affected environment are expected. The actions occurring in and near the Applicants’ covered lands are expected, for the most part, to be limited to forest management activities. There are some agricultural and small home developments scattered throughout the area. For the foreseeable future, though, timber production will likely remain the dominant industry for the area adjacent to th...

Cumulative Impacts. The Final EIR identified no new cumulative impacts other than those identified in the LRDP EIR. The LRDP EIR fully analyzed the environmental impacts from cumulative development of proposed LRDP projects and other related past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future projects in the surrounding community, and that discussion is incorporated into these Findings to the extent pertinent. The Project would incrementally contribute to, but would not exceed, the cumulative impacts previously identified in 115 the LRDP EIR. Cumulative campus development impacts have been fully addressed by the Findings and Overriding Considerations adopted by The Regents in connection with its approval of the LRDP.

Cumulative Impacts. The Draft EIR for the Project was completed in February 1997 and was circulated for review and comment by the public and other interested parties, agencies, and organizations for a 45-day period that concluded on March 31, 1997. In addition, a public hearing on the Draft EIR to accept public testimony was held on March 18, 1997, on the campus. Two letters concerning potentially significant environmental effects were received by the campus. No comments were received at the public hearing. The campus' responses to the public comments are contained in the Final EIR. 110 MINUTE PAGE 002753 B. Project_Impacts and Disposition of Related Mitigation Measures Identified in the EIB. The analysis in the Project Final EIR is focused to address those impacts of the Project not adequately identified or mitigated by the LRDP EIR. The Project EIR also identifies LRDP EIR mitigation measures relevant to the Project that must be implemented as part of the Project. All relevant LRDP EIR mitigation measures have been incorporated into the Project as Project elements. In addition, all Project-specific mitigation measures identified in the Project EIR are included in the Approval and are made conditions of the Project. The following discussion elaborates on potentially significant new environmental impacts identified in the Project EIR and new mitigation measures proposed in the Project EIR.

Cumulative Impacts. H-23/Item 1 “The 25 new approved projects in the West Berkeley area will demand increased energy over time.” 5M-5 H-23/Item 2 “The 25 approved projects in West Berkeley will generate an increase in waste by an unknown amount.” 5M-5 Bayer will implement an Energy Conservation Program. Bayer will implement a Waste Reduction Program. H-23/Item 1 “There is potential for damage to structures from ground shaking. A significant impact to workers and emergency responders would be present from falling and moving objects, ground shaking during aftershocks, spilled materials, and/or loss of power and water.” 4.3-20 Bayer will implement a Seismic Safety Program for new structures and structures to remain.

Cumulative Impacts. The Consultant will: Analyze impacts on resources due to the proposed action and impacts on the same resources due to past, present, and reasonably foreseeable actions. If there are no cumulative impacts, that fact will be so stated.

Cumulative Impacts. In accordance with CEQA requirements, the SEIR would analyze potentially significant cumulative impacts anticipated from development of the project combined with past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future projects in the County and project vicinity. The analysis would be based on a list of proposed or anticipated projects in the area, which would be provided by the County.
