Air
Quality
impacts
from
criteria
pollutants
emitted
during
construction
and
operation
of
a
project
and
their
effects
on
nearby
sensitive
receptors,
as
well
as
impacts
of
toxic
air
contaminants
on
sensitive
receptors
(e.g.,
existing
and
proposed
residential
uses).
Uses
that
negatively
affect
nearby
sensitive
populations
or
uses
that
introduce
sensitive
populations
in
a
manner
that
could
restrict
operations
of
existing
uses
(e.g.,
placing
a
senior
housing
facility
near
an
active
airport)
due
to
noise,
air
pollutant
emissions,
or
odors
would
be
considered
to
be
incompatible.
Hazards
and
Hazardous
Materials
impacts
involving
development
of
the
project
site
that
could
result
in
hazards
to
the
offsite
public
from
onsite
remediation
activities
and
use
of
hazardous
materials
during
site
construction
and
operation.
Incompatible
uses
would
include
uses
involving:
placement
of
sensitive
populations
or
large
concentrations
of
people
near
large-scale
emitters
of
toxic
air
contaminants;
or
placement
of
uses
such
that
the
use,
storage,
or
transportation
of
hazardous
materials
would
constitute
an
unacceptable
risk
to
nearby
uses.
Surface
Water
Hydrology
and
Water
Quality
impacts
related
to
flooding,
drainage,
or
water
quality
conditions.
Development
that
would
create
or
exacerbate
flooding,
drainage,
or
water
quality
problems
on
proximate
lands
would
be
considered
to
be
incompatible.
Land
Use
impacts
involving
the
placement
of
land
uses
and
consistency
with
planning
policy.
Placement
of
uses
adjacent
or
in
proximity
to
each
other
without
adequate
buffer
areas
or
contrary
to
General
Plan
policy
or
zoning
ordinance
requirements
would
be
considered
to
be
a
land
use
incompatibility.
Noise
and
Vibration
temporary
or
permanent
ambient
noise
levels
that
could
adversely
affect
surrounding
uses
due
to
construction
and
operation
of
the
proposed
development.
Adjacent
or
proximate
uses
are
considered
to
be
incompatible
if
the
noise
levels
generated
by
either
use
would
exceed
the
applicable
noise
standards
of
the
other
use.
Traffic
and
Circulation
impacts
related
to
circulation
and
access.
Placement
of
a
use
that
would
block
or
hinder
normal
or
emergency
access
to
an
adjacent
or
proximate
use
would
be
considered
to
be
incompatible.
The
following
discussion
provides
a
summary
of
impacts
related
to
the
compatibility
between
proposed
development
within
the
Baylands
and
existing
uses
located
in
(1)
Visitacion
Valley
and
the
Kinder
Morgan
Energy
Tank
Farm.
Visitacion
Valley
Visitacion
Valley
(including
Little
Hollywood,
Executive
Park,
and
the
Schlage
Lock
site,
which
is
planned
for
redevelopment)
is
located
to
the
north/northwest
of
the
Project
Site.
The
existing
residential
uses
within
Visitacion
Valley
were
analyzed
as
sensitive
receptors
in
the
Draft
EIR
for
aesthetics
and
visual
resources;
air
quality;
hazardous
materials;
surface
water
hydrology
and
water
quality
(flooding);
land
use;
noise;
and
traffic.
Aesthetics
Draft
EIR
Section
4.A,
Aesthetics
and
Visual
Resources
,
reviews
each
development
scenario
for
potential
impacts
on
scenic
vistas,
scenic
resources,
visual
character,
and
daytime
and
