;11CUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION AP#28-03-4
c,f 3b,f: Development of additional homesites on the subject
property will lead to some disruption, displ,ac compaction and
Fo �,,rcovering of the soil which could lead to a ang,p in absorption
,.:aces, drainage patterns in the rate and amount of surface runoff,
ane changes could result in an increase in erosion of soils on site
i,- a discharge of surface waters to neighboring waterway's. Due to the
ziz# of the parcels,, this shouldd, not be a significant impact.
Development of additional homesites on the property will remove
,or�-o land from agricultural use. Due to the size of the properties,
iw in will not be a considered_a significant amount.
;L?, All of Butte County is Located within a moderate earthquake
L,1tatnsi.ty zone VIII. The subj ect property is located approximately 1
,JJe— west of faults associated with the Foothill Shear Zone which
.upported the 1975 Oroville Earthquake:. Construction of buildings to
Lln,i,form Building Code standards for seismically active areas .should
provide adequateprotection to occupants in case of seismic activity.
3d,J: The Federal Emergency Management Agency maps for this area, show
,some potential for flooding along North Honcut Creek along the
southerly portion of the subject property. The area subject to
flooding represents approximately 20-25% of the southerly proposed
parcel (Parcel 3). Accordingly, flooding potential of this property
should not unduly effect the usability of the subject property nor
ondanger the people or possessions located on the parcel.
5,6,, The North Honcut Creek Channel supports riparian habitat which i
protected by California state policy. No construction or development
ohould take place within this riparian habitat, ,nor should it be
rmoved Since this area is also subject to flooding, development of
area is unlikely, and therefore, no significant impacts should,
CCcUe
6,b The subject, property is :subject to aircraft noise from airplanes
using Beale Airforce Base. Occupants of the property could experience
noise levels in the 60-65 dB CNEt range: Single family dwellings ,built
to uniform Building Cade Standards should reduce interior noise levels
to acceptable levels as contained in the Butte County Noise Element
Policy Statements,
13a,cJ Developihent, of additional homesites on property will
represent an incremental increase in traffic and associated traffic
,hazards on area roads. Due to the sparsely populated naturs of the
area and loco traffic counts; this should not be a 83'-gnificant effect,
14: This project will represent an incremental increase .in demand for
bl
puic services in, a :rural, area.
20a: The subject property is located in an area where archaeological
sites may occur, it is necessary to perform a records check through
'thgj :DepartmidOt of Anthropology at California State ;University, Ch vzo�
Iv. arder to determine of significant sites may be located on property.
Op, an archaeological survey of the property may be necessary.

I, Xo mitigation measures recommended at this time regarding
grchaeoli)gical impacts. In order to assess the potential for
adverse ,impacts and to determine what, if any, mitigation measurs
would be appropriate, the applicant should contact the Northeast
Xaformation Center at California State University, Chico, for a
records search and sensitivity evaluation. Should the Center
:recommend that an archaeological survey be conducted, it will then
be necessary for a qualified archaeologist to perform an
archaeological, survey of the property;
