Aesthetics
Regulatory Requirement Aesthetics-1, Design Review:
Pursuant to the City of South San Francisco’s Zoning Code (Chapter 20.480: Design Review) the City will continue to review the design of new buildings on Campus. The City’s Design review criteria will be used to ensure that new buildings promote high-quality design, are well crafted and maintained, use high-quality building materials and are attentive to the design and execution of building details and amenities. The Project must satisfy the following applicable criteria:
1. The site subject to design review shall be graded and developed with due regard for the natural terrain,
aesthetic quality and landscaping so as not to impair the environmental quality, value, or stability of the site or the environmental quality or value of improved or
unimproved property in the area.
2. A building, structure, or sign shall reasonably relate to its site and property in the immediate and adjacent areas;
not be of such poor quality of design as to adversely
affect the environmental quality or desirability of the immediate areas or neighboring areas; and not
unreasonably interfere with the occupancy,
environmental quality, or the stability and value of
improved or unimproved real property or have an
unreasonable detrimental effect on the health, safety,
and general welfare of the community.
3. A site shall be developed to achieve a harmonious
relationship with the area in which it is located and
adjacent areas, allowing a reasonable similarity of style or originality, which does not impair the environmental quality or value of improved or unimproved property or
prevent appropriate development and use of such areas

Biological Resources
GP EIR MM BIO-1, Special-status Species, Migratory Birds and Nesting Birds: Applicants or sponsors of projects on sites where potential special-status species, migratory birds or nesting birds are present shall retain a qualified biologist to conduct a focused survey per applicable regulatory agency protocols to determine whether such species occur on a given site. The project applicant or sponsor shall ensure that, if development of occupied habitat must occur, species impacts shall be avoided or minimized, and if required by a regulatory agency or the CEQA process, loss of wildlife habitat or individual plants shall be fully compensated on the site.
Regulatory Requirement Bio-1A, Nesting Birds: Vegetation clearing and tree removal during the nesting season (February 1 through August 31) could impact active nests of birds protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and/or the California Fish and Game Code, including special‐status bird species. Pre‐ construction nesting bird surveys will be required within 30 days prior to proposed tree removal, in and adjacent to the areas scheduled to be cleared. If an active nest is found, a buffer (typically 50 to 300 feet depending on the nesting species) around the nest would be required, and the nest may have to be periodically monitored by a qualified biologist until the young have fledged and are foraging independently, or until the nest is determined to be inactive.

Regulatory Requirement Bio-1B, Roosting Bats: Tree‐roosting bats could occur in the trees on or near the site. A roosting bat survey should be conducted by a qualified biologist in and around suitable trees and buildings to be removed, within 30 days prior to proposed tree removal or demolition, to
determine whether or not bats are roosting within or adjacent to the project area. Surveys should consist of daytime
pedestrian surveys to look for visual signs of bats, and if determined necessary, evening emergence surveys to note the presence or absence of bats.
1. If roosting bats are detected and directly impacted by the work, bat exclusion from roosts should be performed by
a qualified biologist in consultation with CDFW prior to the removal of the roosts. Exclusionary devices such as plastic sheeting, plastic or wire mesh may be used to
allow bats to exit but not re‐enter any occupied roosts.
2. If special‐status bats are found on‐site and their roosts would be destroyed during development, an artificial
roost should be provided for the bats. The artificial roost should be constructed and placed on‐site prior to
removal of the original roost.
3. Removal of maternity roosts for special‐status bats
should be coordinated with CDFW prior to removal.
Maternity roosts for any species of bat, either common
or special status, should not be demolished or removed
until the young are able to fly independently of their
mothers. Trees and branches that support potential bat
roosts that are being removed as part of the Project
should be left in‐place overnight before being wood‐
chipped or hauled away. Leaving trees and branches
overnight will allow any possible roosting bats present within the fallen trees to fly away.
4. If maternity roosts are found in trees to be preserved near the work area, a qualified biologist should
determine an appropriate no‐work buffer zone. Species‐

Project Requirement HAZ-4, Soil Reuse: As applied to all sites in San Mateo County where soil reuse is proposed, a technical work plan containing required compliance information must be submitted to County Environmental Health Services (SMCEHS) staff for review and approval. SMCEHS guidance pursuant to this requirement relates to the on-site reuse of non-hazardous waste petroleum hydrocarbon impacted soil on the same or contiguous property where it was generated. This guidance does not apply to hazardous waste, nor does it apply to the offsite reuse or disposal of soil, or the import of soil for construction or other uses. Soil proposed for reuse must be approved by San Mateo County Environmental Health Services staff prior to placement. The standards applied pursuant to this process are designed to meet risk-based screening levels per RWQCB Screening for Environmental Concerns at Sites with Contaminated Soil and Groundwater, to demonstrate that the soil is inert as defined the California Code of Regulations with respect to the water quality objectives, and to be consistent with the RWQCB’s Characterization and Reuse of Petroleum Hydrocarbon Impacted Soil as Inert Waste. If, based on the information submitted, the reuse is approved by Environmental Health Services, County staff will issue a letter approving implementation of the soil reuse. After implementation of the approved reuse, a letter must be submitted to Environmental Health Services by the registered professional in charge of the work certifying that the soil was reused in accordance with the approved scope of work.
