ARROYO LAGO RESIDENTIAL PROJECT <br />ADDENDUM <br /> <br /> <br />FCS 135 <br />Https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480036/Addendum/21480036 Arroyo Lago Residential Project Addendum.docx <br />Therefore, the Prior FEIR concluded that impacts would be less than significant. (Draft EIR, pp. 3.9- <br />24, 6-16). <br />The Prior FEIR addressed comments from the City and other agencies regarding potential per- and <br />polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) concerns associated with wastewater treatment, effluent <br />management, and water quality. As documented in the Prior FEIR’s Master Responses addressing <br />wastewater treatment plant operation, effluent quality, and regulatory compliance, the County <br />concluded that the County Project would comply with applicable State and federal PFAS regulations <br />and would not result in significant impacts to groundwater or surface water quality (Final EIR, pp. 2- <br />34–2-35). <br />Proposed Project Analysis and Conclusion <br />Similar to the County Project, construction associated with the proposed project would include <br />grading, excavation, and removal of vegetative cover that has the potential to result in runoff that <br />contains sediment and other pollutants, such as fuel, grease, oil, and other fluids, that could degrade <br />surface and groundwater quality, if not properly controlled. As construction of the proposed project <br />would disturb more than 1 acre of land, compliance with the NPDES General Permit would be <br />required, similar to the County Project. The General Permit would require the development and <br />implementation of a SWPPP. The SWPPP would include site-specific BMPs, such as strategically <br />placed silt fences and straw wattles to minimize erosion on-site and reduce or otherwise prevent <br />conditions of erosion and stormwater runoff during construction. The proposed project would also be <br />subject to the San Francisco Bay MRP, which includes LID standards and post-construction <br />monitoring to encourage stormwater infiltration and retention. <br />The proposed project does not include the water storage and booster pump facility, WWTP, recycled <br />water storage, and agricultural irrigation fields included under the County Project, removing potential <br />water quality impacts associated with these types of development that were identified and evaluated <br />in the Prior FEIR, such as PFAS. Furthermore, the proposed project includes stormwater drainage <br />facilities as described in the Project Description, which would ensure that stormwater is treated, <br />detained, and conveyed to the appropriate facilities to prevent potential impacts related to stormwater <br />drainage on the nearby lakes. As such, impacts related to surface and groundwater quality would be <br />less than those disclosed in the Prior FEIR, although the less than significant impact conclusion <br />would be the same for the proposed project and the County Project. Therefore, the proposed project <br />would not introduce new significant impacts or create substantially more severe significant impacts <br />than those previously identified in the Prior FEIR. No additional analysis is required.
