ARROYO LAGO RESIDENTIAL PROJECT <br />ADDENDUM <br /> <br /> <br />FCS 189 <br />Https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480036/Addendum/21480036 Arroyo Lago Residential Project Addendum.docx <br />funded through increases in customer service rates and through connection fees imposed upon future <br />projects. <br />Nutrient loading refers to the mass of nutrients (primarily nitrogen and phosphorus) that is discharged <br />in treated effluent and is regulated through NPDES permits and regional water quality control <br />programs. Regional wastewater treatment facilities serving the City operate under permits issued by <br />the San Francisco Bay RWQCB that require ongoing monitoring, reporting, and compliance with <br />nutrient management requirements. These programs address cumulative nutrient contributions on a <br />regional scale and are not dependent on individualized CEQA analysis for each incremental <br />development project. The proposed project would not alter wastewater treatment processes, effluent <br />discharge points, or permit conditions, nor would it interfere with regional nutrient management <br />programs. <br />The proposed project would be required to pay applicable fees to reflect its fair share contribution to <br />the DSRSD in support of maintenance of its existing facilities and any planned equipment or process <br />refinements identified as part of its master planning. Since Section 15.16.010 of the City’s Municipal <br />Code requires sewer connections, all residential uses under the proposed project would be required <br />to connect to the City’s wastewater disposal system prior to issuance of building permits. Therefore, <br />the proposed project would not introduce new significant impacts or create substantially more severe <br />impacts than those previously identified in the Prior FEIR. No additional analysis is required. <br />d) Solid Waste Reduction Goals Consistency <br />Would the project: Generate solid waste in excess of State or local standards, or in <br />excess of the capacity of local infrastructure, or otherwise impair <br />the attainment of solid waste reduction goals? <br />Prior FEIR Conclusions <br />The Prior FEIR estimated that the County Project would generate approximately 3,700 tons of solid <br />waste during construction and 378 tons annually during operation. These amounts are within the <br />capacity of the PGS, which serves the area. The County Project would comply with Alameda County’s <br />Integrated Waste Management Plan and implement recycling and waste diversion measures <br />consistent with State mandates, including SB 1383. Therefore, the Prior FEIR concluded that impacts <br />would be less than significant. (Draft EIR, pp. 3.17-18–3.17-19, 6-22–6.24). <br />Proposed Project Analysis and Conclusion <br />The proposed project would result in substantially the same levels of solid waste generation <br />compared to the waste generation rates identified for the County Project in the Prior FEIR, although <br />slightly reduced due to the nominal unit count and substantial reduction in off-site utility <br />improvements. Using a standard operational waste generation rate of 3.0 pounds per capita per day <br />as analyzed in the Prior FEIR, the proposed project would generate approximately 1,764 pounds of <br />waste per day or approximately 322 tons of operational waste per year, reduced compared to that of <br />the County Project. The proposed project would be served by the Vasco Road Sanitary Landfill, which
