1. AESTHETICS Would the project: Less than Potentially Significant Significant with Mitigation No Issues (and Supporting Information Sources): Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway? c) Substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings? d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare that would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? Provide a response to each of the above questions justifying the selected level of impact. Responses may require: Descriptions of potential impacts to aesthetics such as existing distant and immediate views, views of construction vehicles, off site views of diversion structures, and continuity with surrounding land use. Identification and description of specific mitigation terms, if applicable. Explanation of how each term mitigates for potential impacts (i.e. how will the mitigation reduce the potential impact to less-than-significant). For improved clarity it is highly recommended that questions be analyzed sequentially in accordance with the checklist above and that each response is labeled appropriately (i.e. a, b, c, and so forth). 2. AGRICULTURE AND FOREST RESOURCES Would the project: Less than Potentially Significant Significant with Mitigation No Issues (and Supporting Information Sources): Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-agricultural uses? b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract?
