The following measures have either been applied to the project through the latest URBEMIS Model or will be implemented in conjunction with the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD) rules. The applicant/developer of the project site shall submit documentation to the Planning Department prior to development that they will/have met the following air quality mitigation measures: The following mitigation measures shall be utilized during the construction phase of the project to reduce construction exhaust emissions: 1. Properly and routinely maintain all construction equipment, as recommended by manufacturer manuals, to control exhaust emissions. 2. Shut down equipment when not in use for extended periods of time to reduce emissions associated with idling engines. 3. Encourage ride sharing and use of transit transportation for construction employee commuting to the project site. 4. Use electric equipment for construction whenever possible in lieu of fossil fuel-fired equipment. 5. Curtail construction during periods of high ambient pollutant concentrations; this may include ceasing of construction activity during the peak-hour of vehicular traffic on adjacent roadways. Construction of the project requires the implementation of control measures set forth under Regulation VIII, Fugitive PM,o Prohibitions of the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District. The following mitigation measures, in addition to those required under Regulation VIII can reduce fugitive dust emissions associated with this project: 6. All disturbed areas, including storage piles, which are not being actively utilized for construction purposes, shall be effectively stabilized of dust emissions using water, chemical stabilizer/suppressant, covered with a tarp or other suitable cover or vegetative ground cover. 7. All on-site unpaved roads and off-site unpaved access roads shall be effectively stabilized of dust emissions using water or chemical stabilizer/suppressant. 8 All land clearing, grubbing, scraping, excavation, land leveling, grading, cut and fill, and demolition activities shall be effectively controlled of fugitive dust emissions utilizing application of water or by presoaking.

All operations shall limit or expeditiously remove the accumulation of mud or dirt from adjacent public streets at the end of each workday. The use of dry rotary brushes is expressly prohibited except where preceded or accompanied by sufficient wetting to limit the visible dust emissions. Use of blower devices is expressly forbidden. 11. Following the addition of materials to, or the removal of arterials from, the surface of outdoor storage piles, said piles shall be effectively stabilized of fugitive dust emissions utilizing sufficient water or chemical stabilizer/suppressant. 12. Within urban areas track out shall be immediately removed when it extends 50 or more feet from the site and at the end of each workday. 13 Any site with 150 or more vehicle trips per day shall prevent carryout and trackout. 14. Asphalt-concrete paving shall comply with San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Rule 4641 and restrict the use of cutback, slow-cure, and emulsified asphalt paving materials. 15.

This GPAlZC area is too small to support it's own storm drainage sump. The City will allow no more than one sump per 80 acres; therefore, this GPAlZC area must be included within the drainage area of adjoining property. The developer shall participate in the development of a Planned Drainage Area and provide a drainage study for the GPAlZC area, showing it's proportionate share of the necessary ultimate stornn drainage facilities. Formation of a Planned Drainage Area will not be required if the following 'òM~ conditions met: cJ 1'<1' '"" >- - t:: J!'
