Individual

from
Organizations
facilities
is
taken
from
the
proposed
Brisbane
Baylands
Specific
Plan
prepared
by
the
applicant
for
the
DSP
and
DSP-V
scenarios,
as
were
Draft
EIR
references
to
the
potential
for
playgrounds,
concessionaire,
and
fishing
facilities.
The
proposed
Brisbane
Baylands
Specific
Plan
(Draft
EIR
Appendix
C)
provides
some
additional
detail
for
what
the
Specific
Plan
applicant
envisions
for
Lagoon
Park.
On
page
77,
the
Specific
Plan
reads,
“The
upland
area
at
the
north
end
of
the
Lagoon
will
be
the
primary
recreation
area
and
may
include
facilities
such
as
picnic
areas,
informal
turf
areas,
multi-use
paths,
viewing
platforms,
boardwalks,
interpretive
features,
a
non-motorized
craft
storage
and
launching
facility,
restrooms,
and
parking.
A
proposed
Lagoon
Nature
Center,
to
be
located
in
this
area,
would
provide
the
City
of
Brisbane
with
community
meeting
space.
Improvements
in
other
areas
of
the
park
generally
would
be
restricted
to
low-
impact
trails,
landscaping,
seating,
and
overlooks.”
A
view
of
the
proposed
Lagoon
Park
is
provided
on
page
xii
of
the
proposed
Specific
Plan.
While
the
above
description
illustrates
the
developer’s
vision
and
development
request,
more
specific
detail
is
not
available
or
required
at
this
point
in
the
planning
and
environmental
review
process.
Please
See

for
more
information
related
to
the
level
of
detail
appropriate
for
a
program
level
EIR.
Biological
resources
mitigation
measures
calling
for
avoidance
of
impacts
to
wetlands
and
Mitigation
Measure
4.E-4a
restricting
development
that
requires
the
placement
of
fill
materials
within
600
feet
of
the
Lagoon
will
preclude
future
recreational
improvements
and
use
of
the
lagoon
for
kayaking.
Recreational
use
of
the
lagoon
is
not
part
of
the
concept
plan
scenarios,
and
the
Draft
EIR
does
not
therefore
analyze
the
impacts
of
such
use,
nor
does
it
provide
environmental
clearance
for
recreational
use
of
the
lagoon.
Impacts
related
to
siting
a
new
charter
high
school
in
the
general
area
of
Icehouse
Hill
are
addressed
in
Section
4.L,
Public
Services
,
and
Section
4.G,
Hazards
and
Hazardous
Materials.
In
the
CPP
and
CPP-V
scenarios,
the
charter
school
would
be
located
at
the
base
of
Icehouse
Hill
within
0.25
mile
of
the
Kinder
Morgan
site.
Section
4.G
includes
an
analysis
of
impacts
related
to
the
appropriateness
of
the
siting
of
schools
with
respect
to
the
presence
and
potential
for
disturbance
of
hazards
and
hazardous
materials
(see
Impact
4.G-3).
As
discussed,
remedial
actions
and
cleanup
levels
for
parcels
within
the
former
landfill
and
railyard
portions
of
the
Baylands
Site
will
be
finalized
with
preparation
of
Remedial
Action
Plans.
The
Remedial
Action
Plans
may
require
deed
restrictions
on
certain
uses,
including
schools,
to
limit
human
exposures
to
contaminants
above
levels
considered
protective
of
unrestricted
use.
Therefore,
the
results
of
the
remediation
process
may
preclude
construction
of
schools
within
certain
areas
of
the
Baylands.
