,
a
Post-Earthquake
Inspection
and
Corrective
Action
Plan
(Plan)
for
the
site-specific
development
projects
within
the
former
landfill
portion
of
the
Project
Site
shall
be
prepared
and
implemented
by
all
Project
applicants
in
accordance
with
Title
27
landfill
closure
requirements
as
approved
by
the
RWQCB
and
the
San
Mateo
County
Department
of
Environmental
Health
prior
to
issuance
of
a
building
permit.”
The
owner
of
the
property
on
which
the
former
landfill
sits
is
required
to
have
the
inspection
performed
pursuant
to
the
requirements
of
Title
27,
and
to
report
the
results
of
the
inspection
within
72
hours
of
the
event,
which
does
not
preclude
repairs
being
performed
in
that
time
if
needed.
A
specific
timeline
is
not
set
in
Title
27
for
completion
of
repairs
since
the
nature
of
repairs
to
each
specific
landfill
after
an
earthquake
cannot
be
known.
Emergency
repairs
to
address
immediate
threats
to
public
health
and
the
environment
will
be
completed
quicker
than
more
complex
long-term
repairs.
A
7.0
magnitude
earthquake
is
the
applicable
design
event
pursuant
to
current
state
requirements.
The
design
of
monitoring
systems
for
formal
landfill
closure
under
the
regulatory
authority
of
the
RWQCB
will
take
into
account
the
area’s
seis
mic
risks.
See
7
for
discussion
of
the
baseline
year
for
Draft
EIR
analyses.
The
increase
in
soils
heights
within
the
former
landfill
is
the
result
of
soils
processing
operations
that
were
ongoing
a
number
of
years
prior
to
the
Draft
EIR’s
2010
baseline
year,
and
the
accumulation
of
such
soils
onsite
are,
therefore,
not
an
impact
of
Project
Site
development.
Any
additional
soils
onsite
beyond
those
estimated
by
2011
grading
plan
mean
that
a
lesser
amount
of
soils
will
need
to
be
imported
to
achieve
proposed
site
elevations.
The
evaluation
of
the
aesthetic
impacts
of
proposed
Project
Site
development
would
be
unchanged
since
it
is
based
on
proposed
site
elevations
that
have
not
changed
subsequent
to
2011
grading
studies.
Thus,
no
re-evaluation
is
needed.
All
new
construction
within
the
Baylands
Project
Site
will
be
required
to
meet
the
most
recent
seismic
standards
set
forth
in
applicable
building
codes
at
the
time
building
permits
are
issued.
See
Mitigation
Measures
4.E-2a,
4.E-2b,
4.E-3,
4.E-4a,
and
4.E-4b.
See
also
5
for
discussion
of
compliance
with
the
law
as
mitigation.
The
term
“clean”
refers
to
the
20
to
30
feet
deep
layer
of
soil
used
as
cover
over
the
landfill
to
prevent
human
contact
with
refuse
from
residential,
commercial,
industrial
activities
including
shipyard
8
Because
the
required
plan
addresses
specific
structures
that
will
be
located
and
designed
as
part
of
subsequent
actions,
and
also
addresses
specific
yet
to
be
approved
by
the
RWQCB
measures
related
to
landfill
closure,
it
cannot
be
prepared
until
after
specific
structures
have
been
designed
and
a
landfill
closure
plan
has
been
approved.
