does
not
include
evaluation
of
the
existing
Recology
facility,
which
is
part
o
f
the
EIR’s
existing
setting.
The
Draft
EIR
does,
however,
evaluate
the
proposed
modernization
and
expansion
of
the
Recology
facility
as
part
of
the
CPP-V
scenario.
Because
the
transport
and
handling
of
hospital,
medical,
and
research
waste
are
highly
regulated,
and
the
amount
of
wastes
handled
by
the
Recology
facility
are
not
anticipated
to
increase
as
the
result
of
proposed
modernization
and
expansion
under
the
CPP-V
scenario,
no
significant
impacts
related
to
such
wastes
were
determined
to
result
from
proposed
Project
site
development.
See
for
discussion
of
the
remediation
review
and
approval
process
and
for
discussion
regarding
the
adequacy
of
existing
studies
for
use
in
the
Draft
EIR.
While
regulatory
authority
for
site
remediation
and
Title
27
landfill
closure
rests
with
the
RWQCB
and
DTSC,
those
agencies
do
not
have
authority
over
land
use.
Authority
for
the
review
and
approval
of
land
uses
within
the
Baylands
rests
with
the
City
of
Brisbane.
The
RWQCB
and
DTSC
thus
have
the
responsibility
to
set
and
enforce
risk-based
cleanup
goals
within
the
Baylands
based
on
the
land
uses
determined
by
the
City
of
Brisbane
to
be
appropriate
within
the
Baylands.
Site
remediation
to
the
standards
set
by
the
RWQCB
and
DTSC
as
the
designated
regulatory
agencies
for
remediation
of
the
Baylands
is
required
prior
to
physical
development
within
the
Project
site
per
the
provisions
of
Mitigation
Measure
4.G-2a.
Implementation
of
the
General
Permit
for
Discharges,
NPDES
General
Construction
Permits,
and
Regional
Stormwater
Permits
address
erosion
control
and
quality
of
runoff
water,
and
will
be
implemented
in
post-remediation
conditions.
All
grading,
construction,
and
infrastructure
development
will
be
required
to
be
consistent
with
RWQCB
and
DTSC
requirements
set
as
part
of
those
agencies’
remediation
review
and
approval
processes.
See

the

and
approval
process.
Title
27
landfill
closure
and
site
remediation
to
the
standards
set
by
the
RWQCB
and
DTSC
as
the
designated
regulatory
agencies
for
remediation
of
the
Baylands
are
required
prior
to
physical
development
per
the
requirements
of
Mitigation
Measure
4.G-2a.
Site
remediation
will
be
required
to
prevent
the
creation
of
new
exposure
pathways,
such
as
those
that
could
occur
during
actual
site
remediation
and
subsequent
activities
such
as
site
grading
and
development.
Required
remedial
activities
addressing
potential
exposure
pathways
for
constituents
of
concern
will
bring
the
former
landfill
into
compliance
with
existing
State
statutes.
In
addition,
remediation
of
and
to
the
site-specific
cleanup
goals
set
by
regulatory
agency
requirements
will
also
address
potential
exposure
pathways
for
constituents
of
concern.
