Figure 15. Aerial image showing that substantial amounts of disturbance, including placement of
impervious or reduced-infiltration cover, can reasonably be expected to occur all the way to the back
boundaries of many parcels (asterisks) that are similar to the sizes of those proposed to abut wetlands
within the Canyon Springs site. It is infeasible to ensure effective implementation of proposed mitiga-
tion measures, therefore significant water quality and indirect wetlands impacts will result.
Figure 14. Road construction near the Canyon Springs site, showing ineectiveness of standard BMPs,
and continued ow of turbid water, probably containing a lot of clay particles, for many months follow -
ing construction. The DEIR is inadequate in not addressing the clay content of the near-surface soils of
the site (which will be disturbed in construction) and its consequences for water quality impacts.
