Sustainable practices. In Chapter 2, each of the action alternatives address elements of sustainability that would be incorporated at stable sites including opportunities associated with building rehabilitation, new construction of stalls, storage sheds, residences or others stables facilities, infrastructure upgrades, and program operations. For any proposed new facilities or building rehabilitation proposed in the action alternatives, the NPS anticipates that the building materials, heating, insulation, water use, site grading and drainage, and/or lighting efficiency at stable sites will be improved. Energy Requirements and Conservation Potential. The Council on Environmental Quality requires that environmental documents consider energy requirements and the conservation potential of various alternatives and mitigation measures. Currently, visitors arrive almost exclusively by private automobile. However, vehicle miles traveled because of Park visitation is negligible in the context of regional travel because the proposed alternatives would result in (1) no reduction to less than a 1.5% reduction in private vehicle trips to southern Marin; and (2) no reduction to a 5% reduction in private vehicle trips within the study area. The potential for energy conservation as a net result of auto reduction and increased transit trips would be imperceptible on both a local and regional scale. Changes in energy requirements resulting from the changes in auto and bus trips would be imperceptible. On a regional scale existing transportation-related energy consumption within the study area is negligible compared to transportation-related energy consumption within the region as a whole. Construction of the action alternatives would consume energy, but the expenditure would last only for the duration of construction. The short- and long-term impacts of energy consumption would be negligible under all alternatives, so this topic was dismissed. Effects of sea level change. Where action alternatives contemplate construction of new buildings, these are located upslope to avoid any potential conflicts with rising sea level. The following excerpt is taken from the Big Lagoon EIS (NPS, 2007) The sea level has risen approximately 400 feet since the peak of the last ice age about 18,000 years ago. The bulk of that occurred before 6,000 years ago (Axelrod 1981). From 3,000 years ago to the start of the 19th century the rate of sea level rise was almost constant; however, rates of sea level rise increased in the 20th century. In the last century, the measured rate of rise near San Francisco is 0.7 feet/century or 0.35 feet/50 years. The NPS, in coordination with San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC) and the United States Geological Survey (USGS), will be updating the coastal vulnerability maps. The Park will monitor the changes to sea level and other indicators of global warming, in coordination other affected Park partners, and make adaptive management decisions as necessary in the future.
