Dingee Pressure Zone Improvement Project - Estates Reservoir Replacement ProjectWater Distribution Facilities - Initial StudyENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT CHECKLISTPotentiallySignificantImpactIssues (and Supporting Information Sources):X. MINERAL RESOURCES.Would the project:Less ThanSignificant WithMitigationIncorporatedLess ThanSignificantImpactNoImpact a) Result in the loss ofavailability of a knownmineral resource classifiedMRZ-2 by the StateGeologist that would be ofvalue to the region and theresidents of the state?b) Result in the loss of availability of a locallyimportant mineral resourcerecovery site delineated on alocal general plan, specificplan or other land use plan?a & b).Demolition of the existing reservoir and construction of new facilities will occur on previously disturbed areasand will not expose or disturb valuable or locally important mineral resources. Furthermore, existingurban/residential conditions at the Project site and within the vicinity limit the potential for any quarrying ormining activity at the site. According to the City of Oakland General Plan, Open Space and Recreation ElementTechnical Appendices, 1993, although quarrying for volcanic rocks was once commonplace throughout theOakland Hills, and has historically been used for construction and development, today there are no remainingquarries in the City and current city policy prohibits quarrying unless compelling evidence can be presentedindicating that the benefits will outweigh the environmental costs. For the reasons stated herein (a&b) there willbe no impacts to Mineral Resources and no further analysis and/or mitigation measures are proposed in theProject Draft EIR.sb09_003.doc 24 12/10/08
