J. Degradation of Air Quality There will be a short-term impact associated with air quality during construction of the site and a negligible overall impact associated with the development. There may be temporary airborne dust particulates associated with construction activities, but these will dissipate with the daily construction schedule. Additionally, soil erosion and sediment control measures will be employed to mitigate the potential for airborne air quality impacts. The impact of the development on air quality would be limited to vehicular exhaust. This is typical of all passenger, construction, delivery vehicles and elevated levels will dissipate as traffic disperses off-site. K. Odor The project proposes one (1) 1,500-gallon grease trap for each of the proposed buildings. The grease traps will be located underground within the drive-thru lanes adjacent to the buildings and are designed not to omit odor. The grease traps will each be cleaned four (4) times per year during non-operating hours of the drive-thru lanes. The grease traps will be located in the center of the property, surrounded by the buildings, proposed trees and dense vegetation to screen any odor emitted during cleanings which is temporary and in an open air setting. The project proposes two (2) trash enclosures located along the southern property boundary. Trash will be stored in six cubic yard dumpsters with lids and screened by a 6’ masonry wall. Additional landscaping is proposed screening the enclosures to filter any potential odors from the enclosures. Trash pickup will occur three (3) times a week, with additional pickups to be scheduled as needed to eliminate stagnant waste. Exhaust filters are installed on the ventilation equipment on the roof of the buildings to catch grease prior to exiting the building. The exhaust filters are cleaned and maintained on a regular schedule to remove the accumulation of grease and therefore odors from exiting the restaurants. L. Noise Lewis S. Goodfriend & Associates (LSG&A) completed an evaluation of the expected outdoor sound pressure levels due to the mechanical equipment and drive-thru intercom loudspeakers for the proposed project and the results of the evaluation indicate that the sound levels due to the mechanical equipment
