Less than Significant Impact Sample Clauses
The 'Less than Significant Impact' clause defines a threshold for determining when an action or project will not cause substantial adverse effects on the environment or other protected interests. In practice, this clause is often used in environmental assessments to categorize impacts that are minor, temporary, or easily mitigated, such as slight increases in noise or minimal changes to local traffic patterns. Its core function is to streamline regulatory review by distinguishing between negligible impacts and those requiring more extensive analysis or mitigation, thereby focusing resources on more significant concerns.
Less than Significant Impact. No Impact
Less than Significant Impact. No Impact Mitigation Measures: None No Impact
Less than Significant Impact. Construction of the proposed project would temporarily increase noise in the vicinity of the project area. Noise increases would result from on-site construction activities. Temporary construction noise associated with the grading activities is
Less than Significant Impact. The proposed project would be constructed using diesel- powered heavy equipment. Diesel exhaust from construction activities may generate temporary odors while project construction is under way. However, there are no sensitive receptors of substantial numbers of people within the vicinity of the project. IV.
Less than Significant Impact. The project includes the construction of upland mound areas that could impede or redirect floodflows in the Yolo Bypass. However, as noted above in the discussion in Section (d), the hydrology report, and the County’s peer review of it, concluded that only minor local changes in the water surface elevation or water velocities during the most probable 100-year flood would occur due to the project.
Less than Significant Impact. The Soil Survey of Yolo County, California (Soil Conservation Service 1972) indicates that the primary soil on the project site is Capay clay, flooded (Cc). This is a non-prime Class IV soil with an erosion hazard of “none to slight.” Grading disturbance
Less than Significant Impact. As described above, temporary construction would not result in substantial increases in ambient noise levels and no new noise would be generated upon completion of the proposed project.
Less than Significant Impact. The proposed project will result in the creation of open water and ▇▇▇▇▇ habitats that have the potential to result in increased mosquito populations. In order to minimize potential health hazards related to mosquito breeding, the project proponent will be required to coordinate the design and ongoing management of the project with the Sacramento- Yolo Mosquito & Vector Control District. A Condition of Approval for the project will require the applicant to comply with any feasible Best Management Plans proposed by the District. VIII.
Less than Significant Impact. The proposed project would likely not introduce additional sources of polluted runoff or generate other impairments of water quality. Implementation of the SWPPP and BMPs, as described in (b), above, would ensure that the proposed project does not contribute additional sources of polluted runoff.
Less than Significant Impact. During construction, the movement of crews, and equipment would result in temporary increases in traffic on the surrounding roadways. The equipment needed for the construction would make one trip to the property and one trip leaving the site once construction is complete. Approximately six to twelve construction employees would need to access the site daily during construction, over approximately 101 days (Phase 1) and
