Hana Japan Restaurant Project Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration 76 May 2025 groundwater supplies beyond what has been anticipated for the site by the City and accounted for in the UWMP. In addition, the proposed project would be subject to the standards established in Chapter 17.14, Water Efficient Landscaping, of the City’s Municipal Code, which incorporates standards from the State’s MWELO and landscape guidelines of the Alameda County Waste Management Authority. Based on the above, the City would have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project and reasonably foreseeable future development during normal, dry, and multiple dry years, and a less-than-significant impact would occur. c. Within the City of Pleasanton, sewer service is provided by the City’s Public Works Department. Wastewater facility planning involves a collection system comprised of gravity pipelines, force mains, and sewage lift/pumping stations; a treatment plant where raw sewage is treated; and an export system to transport the treated effluent to an approved discharge location. According to the City’s General Plan EIR, the City is estimated to discharge approximately 14.3 million gallons per day (mgd). The cities of Pleasanton and Livermore, as well as the Dublin-San Ramon Services District, share the allocated expansion increment (20.2 mgd) of the Livermore-Amador Valley Water Management Agency system among them, with the City of Pleasanton acquiring an additional 6.9 mgd of wet-weather discharge capacity for a total capacity of 14.4 mgd. The City’s capacity is sufficient to accommodate buildout of the proposed General Plan.45 The project site is currently undeveloped and the proposed project is consistent with the existing General Plan land use designations. Thus, the demand for wastewater collection and treatment facilities associated with buildout of the site have been anticipated by the City. In addition, the proposed project would be subject to the City’s sewer permit fee as established by Chapter 15.20 of the City’s Municipal Code. Payment of the applicable sewer fees would ensure that funds are available for costs associated with new sewer construction and connections, capacity allocations, wastewater discharge permits, special permits, and other services. Based on the above, the City would have adequate capacity to serve the wastewater demand associated with the proposed project in addition to the City’s existing commitments, and a less-than-significant impact would occur. d,e. Solid waste, recyclable materials, and compostable material collection within the project area is provided by the Republic Services Vasco Road Landfill, located at 4001 North Vasco Road. The landfill operates under a Full Solid Waste Facility Permit (SWFP) issued by CalRecycle (SWIS #01-AA-0010), which allows for a maximum daily inflow rate of 2,518 tons per day. Although the landfill is being considered for expansion, the current design has sufficient capacity to operate through 2031.46 Because the proposed project is consistent with the existing General Plan land use designations, construction and operation of the proposed project would not result in substantially increased solid waste generation beyond what has been previously anticipated for the site by the City. In addition, pursuant to the CALGreen Code, at least 65 percent diversion of construction waste is required. With respect to operation, the 45 City of Pleasanton. Final Environmental Impact Report.
