Individuals

to
work
locally.
It
is
the
creation
of
these
opportunities
that
Objective
M
on
page
3-74
seeks
to
achieve.
The
objective
for
creating
opportunities
for
local
employment
is
intended
to
reflect
the
City’s
General
Plan,
which
states
as
part
of
its
local
economic
development
goal,
“Brisba
ne
will
be
a
place
where
economic
development...
facilitates
employment
of
residents.”
The
objective
referred
to
in
Comment
Meeting
1-
44
is
also
consistent
with
General
Plan
Policy
9,
“Seek
fuller
employment
of
Brisbane
residents.”

refers
to
one
of
the
Project
Objectives
set
forth
for
proposed
Baylands
development
in
Chapter

Project

.
The

states
in
full,
Contribute
to
critically-needed
solutions

transit
and
transportation
issues

referring
to
contributions
to
the
improvements
recommended
by
the
Bi-County
transportation
study,
such
as
the
Geneva
Avenue
extension
and
improvements
to
the
Candlestick
and
Sierra

It
is
not
clear
to
what
statewide
average
Comment
Meeting1-46
refers.
The
rationale
for
use
of
the
generation
and
consumption
factors
employed
in
Draft
EIR
analyses
is
explained
in
each
instance
a
generation
or
consumption
factor
is
discussed
in
the
Draft
EIR.

As
stated
on
Draft
EIR
page
3-76,
Project
Site
development
under
any
of
the
development
scenarios
is
anticipated
to
occur
over
a
period
of
20
years.
As
discussed
in
Section
4.O,
Utilities,
Service
Systems,
and
Water
Supply
,
the
proposed
recycled
water
treatment
facility
would
not
be
constructed
until
sufficient
wastewater
flow
was
being
generated
within
the
Baylands
to
allow
that
facility
to
operate
in
an
efficient
manner,
which
could
be
as
late
as
15
years
of
the
anticipated
20-year
Project
Site
buildout.
Meeting1-49
[See page
5-649 for the original comment]
The
Baylands
Project
Site
is
not
identified
on
any
known
map
of
significant
or
potentially
significant
mineral
resources,
nor
has
the
existence
of
any
commercially
viable
mineral
resource
been
documented
within
the
Baylands.
Existing
waste
characterization
studies
conducted
within
the
former
landfill
area
have
also
not
identified
a
potential
for
commercially
viable
resources
to
be
present
within
the
former
landfill.
Pursuant
to
the
provisions
of
CEQA,
the
Draft
EIR
evaluates
the
physical
environmental
changes
that
would
occur
from
implementation
of
the
proposed
development
described
in
Chapter
3,
Project
Description
,
of
the
Draft
EIR.
Since
“mining”
of
the
former
landfill
is
not
proposed,
it
is
not
addressed
in
the
Draft
EIR.
