<br />access to industrial and commercial areas on connecting roads consistent with this policy. <br /> <br />C. Environmental Resources Element <br /> <br />C.8 Local governments shall develop plans and programs which carefully manage development <br />on hillsides and in water bodies, and restrict development in wetlands in order to prevent <br />erosion and protect the scenic quality, surface water and groundwater quality, forest values, <br />vegetation, and wildlife values of those areas. <br /> <br />C.9 Each city shall complete a separate study to meet its requirements under the Goal 5 Rule for <br />wetlands, riparian corridors, and wildlife habitat within the UGB. Lane County and the <br />respective city jointly will adopt the inventory and protection measures for the area outside <br />the city limits and inside the UGB. <br /> <br />C.10 Local governments shall encourage further study (by specialists) of endangered and <br />threatened plant and wildlife species in the metropolitan area. <br /> <br />C.11 Local governments shall protect endangered and threatened plant and wildlife species, as <br />recognized on a legally adopted statewide list, after notice and opportunity for public input. <br /> <br />These policies are directed to the local governments of Eugene, Springfield and Lane County and <br />not necessarily the applicant. However, they are applicable to the extent that the cities of Eugene <br />and Springfield and Lane County have adopted regulations to protect these resources, and that the <br />applicant will be required to apply for applicable permits pursuant to those local requirements <br />(Eugene's Willamette Greenway permit and Water Resources Conservation Overlay Zone, and <br />Springfield's 75-riparian setback review). <br /> <br />C. 23 Design and construction of new noise-sensitive development in the vicinity of existing <br />and future streets and highways with potential to exceed general highway noise levels <br />shall include consideration of mitigating measures, such as acoustical building <br />modifications, noise barriers, and acoustical site planning. The application of these <br />mitigating measures must be balanced with other design considerations and housing <br />costs. <br /> <br />Comments were also received regarding the noise abatement walls and limiting noise from the <br />project. Since the project is not a "new noise-sensitive development in the vicinity of existing and <br />futures streets and highways..." but is rather the reverse, a highway in the vicinity of existing <br />residential development, this policy is not applicable. Furthermore, the highway is replacing an <br />existing highway in approximately the same location. In the event that this policy is found <br />applicable, the applicant's findings are incorporated to demonstrate consistency. As previously <br />discussed under Goal 6 above, a project noise technical report was prepared as part of the <br />Environmental Assessment (as required by NEP A) to analyze potential noise impacts resulting from <br />the project. Per the ODOT Noise Manual (June 1996) analysis procedures, noise mitigation <br />measures were evaluated to reduce noise levels to nearby residences as a result of the project. Noise <br />walls were determined to meet the ODOT effectiveness and cost-effectiveness criteria in two <br />locations and are recommended as mitigation (see supplemental information, Figures 7-9).
