Impacts would be less than significant. <br />b) Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project and reasonably foreseeable future <br />development during normal, dry and multiple dry years? <br />Less than significant impact. A significant impact may occur if a project were to increase water <br />consumption to such a degree that new water sources would need to be identified, or that existing <br />resources would be consumed at a pace greater than planned for by purveyors, distributors, and <br />service providers. The City of Pleasanton UWMP provided a forecast of the City’s water supplies and <br />water demands in normal, dry, and multiple dry years through 2040. According to the City of <br />Pleasanton’s UWMP, the available water supply will be sufficient to meet the City’s projected <br />demand through 2040, which is anticipated to be 18,699 acre-feet.117 The proposed project’s <br />anticipated water demand would be within the demand assumed in the UWMP for the site. <br />Therefore, the City would have the available water supply to serve the proposed project, and <br />development of the proposed project would not require the City of Pleasanton to obtain new or <br />expanded water facilities and would not exceed the projected water supplies. Impacts would be less <br />than significant. <br />c) Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider which serves or may serve the <br />project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project’s projected demand in addition to the <br />provider’s existing commitments? <br />Less than significant impact. A significant impact may occur if a project would increase wastewater <br />generation to such a degree that the capacity of facilities currently serving the project site would be <br />exceeded. As discussed previously, the wastewater treatment system has the available capacity to <br />accommodate the proposed project’s wastewater generation. Therefore, impacts would be less than <br />significant. <br />d) Generate solid waste in excess of State or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local <br />infrastructure, or otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals? <br />Less than significant impact. A significant impact may occur if a project were to increase solid waste <br />generation to a degree that existing and projected landfill capacity would be insufficient to <br />accommodate the additional solid waste. Trash, recyclables, and green waste within the City are <br />collected by PGS. PGS provides solid waste collection services under an exclusive franchise <br />agreement with the City of Pleasanton. These services include collection of solid waste from <br />commercial, industrial, and residential customers within the City. Collected solid waste is sorted at <br />the Pleasanton Transfer Station and Recycling Center, which is also operated by PGS. The Pleasanton <br />Transfer Station and Recycling Center has a design capacity of 720 tons per day. PGS transports solid <br />waste to the Vasco Road Sanitary Landfill in Livermore. The Vasco Road Sanitary Landfill has a <br />maximum permitted throughput of 2,518 tons per day and has remaining capacity through the end <br /> <br />117 City of Pleasanton. 2016. 2015 Urban Water Management Plan.
