DISCUSSION: The design of the Final/Secondary Effluent Pump Station by W&K was approved by the Board on October 5, 2006. W&K completed their design and submitted the bid package on April 4, 2007. The bid opening for this project was on May 2,2007. One bid was received, and District staff is continuing to negotiate with the bidder. Over the course of the design, there were a number of additional tasks and changes to the design that were not and could not be accounted for in W&K's original design budget. In addition, W&K has performed a number of additional services during the bid period and continues to provide support to the District during bid negotiations and project permitting. W&K's scope of work and cost estimate to complete the work is attached. This work will be completed as a task order under a new Master Services Agreement with W &K, which is currently being finalized. Because the future of this project has not been determined, additional work by W&K during construction will be negotiated separately from this task order, also under then new Master Services Agreement.

DISCUSSION: The ICR TMDL Mitigation Project is being funded under the Clean Water 319(h) Non-point Source Implementation Grant Agreement No. 06-244-556-0. Under the grant-funding program, the State Water Board is required to make findings based on information provided by the Lead Agency (the District) before granting environmental clearance for the project. Recognized concerns regarding possible impacts to environmental factors including: aesthetics, biological resources, noise, and recreation from this project, as well as the project location on U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) property are believed to require completion of an initial environmental review. The scope of work for this project would generally involve those tasks required to meet the initial environmental review requirements under CEQA and NEPA.

DISCUSSION: On April 9, 2007, the California Department of Health Services (CaDHS) formally approved the corrosion control treatment (CCT) alternative recommended by the District for the South Upper Truckee Well NO.3. This treatment alternative involves using low profile aeration for the removal of carbon dioxide and radon from water and providing the means for use of chemical additives to supplement aeration, if deemed necessary, based on future water system lead and copper sampling results. Following construction, the District will need to provide an Operations Plan to meet CaDHS permitting requirements for the addition of the CCT facility to the District's water system. In April 2007, Boyle completed the engineering plans and specifications for the South Upper Truckee Well No.3 Controls Building/Corrosion Control Treatment Facility Project. As the consulting engineer of record, Boyle is best positioned to prepare the accompanying Operations Plan for this facility. SCHEDULE: May 2007 through March 2008 COSTS: $19,624 (not-to-exceed estimate) ACCOUNT NO: 2029-8463/RWSUTR BUDGETED AMOUNT REMAINING: <$29,361> 2006/07, $2,205,0002007108 ATTACHMENTS: Scope of Services Operations Plan for the South Upper Truckee Well No.3, South Tahoe Public Utility District, Exhibit A (April 16, 2007) CONCURRENCE WITH REQUESTED ACTION: GENERAL MANAGER: YES t/l-J/-I NO CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER: YES~ NO -23- CATEGORY: Water EXHmIT "A" April 16, 2007 Scope of Services Operations Plan for the South Upper Truckee Well No.3 South Tahoe Public Utility District Introduction As part of an arsenic compliance plan, the South Tahoe Public Utility District (District) plans to increase the use of groundwater from the South Upper Truckee well field to reduce the demand on other wells that require arsenic treatment. To further this goal, the District has constructed the new South Upper Truckee Well No.3 (SUT3). The water produced by the existing South Upper Truckee well field wells contains relatively high concentrations of carbon dioxide and radon. The high levels of carbon dioxide suppress the water's pH and contribute to its high corrosivity. Routine lead and copper monitoring required by the EP A Lead and Copper Rule has revealed 90th percentile first-flush copper levels at consumer taps that exceed the regulatory action level of 1.3 mglL. Based on recommendations provided to the District in the South Upper Truckee Well No.3 Corrosion Control Study prepared by Kennedy Jenks Consultants in January 2007, SUT3 is being equipped with wellhead treatment consisting of low-profile, deep bubble aeration treatment, with the option for future addition of a sodium hydroxide or sodium silicate corrosion-inhibitor feed system. The aeration equipment will be operational when the well is brought online. The District has selected Boyle Engineering Corporation (Boyle) to provide engineering services for equipping the new SUT3, designing an aeration system to remove carbon dioxide from the well water, designing a chemical treatment system for distribution system corrosion control, and designing a new well control and treatment building. The District has requested that Boyle develop the Operations Plan for the SUT3 treatment plant under design. The Operations Plan will satisfy specific requirements specified by the California Department of Health Services (CDHS) for permitting and operation of the SUT3 well and treatment plant. The Operations Plan is to be considered a living document, and should be updated as any changes are made in the physical facilities or operations. Therefore, an electronic copy of the Operations Plan and associated drawings will be provided to the District as part of the final document. Work Tasks Boyle shall perform the following work tasks: FR16642.00 25- Page 1 of 3 BOYLE Task 100 -Information Gathering Boyle will meet with or make phone contact with the District and the CDHS to obtain background information relative to the operation, monitoring and reporting for the SUT3 aeration treatment plant as follows: . Identify the treated water quality goals established by the District for the SUT3 aeration treatment plan . Identify the monitoring and reporting requirements to be established by CDHS for the SUT3 aeration treatment plant. . Identify CDHS requirements for inclusion in the operations plan. . Identify the District's standard operating procedures relative to well site and treatment operations, including the number of operating staff, level of treatment certification, existing well and treatment logs used, etc. Task 200 - Preliminary Draft Operations Plan Preparation Prepare the draft operations plan for review and comment by the District. The Operations Plan will specifically address the deep bubble aeration treatment operations, monitoring and reporting requirements. Three draft report copies will be prepared and provided to the District for review by the District. Task 300 - Final Draft Operations Plan Preparation A final draft Operations Plan will be prepared, which incorporates all District comments. Four final draft report copies will be prepared and provided to the District. The District will then submit a copy of the final draft Operations Plan to CDHS for their review and approval. Task 400 - Draft Operations Plan Review Meeting and Preparation of Final Operations Plan Boyle will meet with District staff at the District's office to discuss the draft Operations Plan and comments submitted by CDHS. Boyle will then prepare the final Operations Plan, addressing CDHS and additional District comments. To ensure that any changes made during construction are incorporated into the Operations Plan, the final plan will not be submitted until after construction is approximately 50 percent complete. Three copies of the final Operations Plan will be submitted to the District (one for CDHS, one to be retained at the treatment plant, and one for the operations office), including one reproducible copy and one complete set of the Operations Plan on CD in Word, Excel, and AutoCAD formats. Other formats can be provided at the District's request. Additional Engineering Services Boyle may provide the following services at the District's request: FR16642.00 26 Page 2 of 3 BOYLE 1. CDHS pennit application assistance. 2. Operations Plan update following actual operation of the treatment facilities at SUT3 (after about 1 year of operation). Compensation for Engineering Services Boyle shall be compensated monthly with progress payments by the District for services provided by Boyle pursuant to this Scope of Work in accordance with Boyle's Hourly Rate Schedule (Exhibit "B"), which is attached hereto and made a part of this Scope of Work.. Maximum fee shall not exceed $ 19,624 without written authorization. Right to Rely Consistent with the professional standard of care, Boyle shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy of data and infonnation provided by the District, or others without independent review or evaluation unless specifically required in the Scope of Services. Disk Files Report disk files or CD-ROM files delivered to the District shall not include the professional stamp or signature of an engineer. The District agrees that Boyle shall not be liable for claims, liabilities or losses arising out of, or connected with (a) the modification or misuse by the District or the District, or anyone authorized by the District, of such files; (b) the decline of accuracy or readability of such files due to inappropriate storage conditions or duration; or (c) any use by the District, or anyone authorized by the District, of such files for any other project, excepting only such use as is authorized, in writing, by Boyle.

Our firm is very interested in representing South Tahoe Public Utility District (STPUD) in the exploration of its use of Carson River water rights, including change applications for those rights. oUr firm has a wealth of experience in water rights. Myself, Francis C. Flaherty, and Jessica C. Prunty, all practice in the area of water rights law. Moreover, Thomas A. Wilczek, an associate with our firm, practices in environmental law, including water quality issues. I have extensive experience with the Alpine Decree and water rights on the Carson River. This experience includes working for the Office of the Nevada State Attorney General, where I represented the State Engineer for five (5) years from i 989 to 1994. During that time, I attended hearings before the State Engineer on Carson River change applications, represented the State Engineer in Federal District Court and the Ninth Circuit on some of those change applications, and attended hearings before the Federal District Court Judges overseeing the Alpine Decree on Carson River issues in which the State Engineer was not a party. I also worked for the Springmeyer Law Firm from 1994 to 1998, where I represented the Carson Water Subconservicy District ("District"). Among numerous faced issues involving the Carson River, I negotiated the purchase of Carson River water rights from Aqueduct I, negotiated with Carson City for the lease and use of these storage rights, and completed. the process to use those storage rights in Carson City. Moreover, I represented the District in negotiations convened by Senator Reid to resolve various legal issues on the Carson and Truckee Rivers.

Jones Mary Lou Mosbacher Duane Wallace Eric Schafer Memorandum Date: May 16, 2007 To: STPUD Board Members From: Julie Ryan, Senior Engineer Cc: Richard Solbrig, General Manager Paul Sciuto, Assistant General Manager Jimmie Hoggatt, Engineering Department Manager Subject: Final and Secondary Effluent Pump Station Project Status of Bid Period Over the past two weeks Staff has met with the bidding contractor (KG Walters) and the design engineer (Winzler & Kelly) to discuss discrepancies between the single bid that was received on May 2,2007 ($8,146,375), and the engineer's estimate (approximately $5.6 million). However, we have had little success resolving the difference. A summary follows with our Staff recommendation. KG Walters has revisited their bid, and has discussed some of the bid items with their subcontractors, but continues to stand by their bid price. They argue that high material costs and the abnormal risks associated with this project have both contributed to their price. To the credit of KG Walters, their representatives have been very helpful and cooperative during this difficult process. At the same time, Staff instructed Winzler & Kelly to revisit their estimate by confirming the quantities and unit prices that went into the estimate. We received a revised estimate from them yesterday in the amount $6,148,684. This half million dollar increase in the Engineer's Estimate can be attributed most significantly to shoring, pump station construction, and instrumentation facilities. Yesterday, Staff met in-house to discuss the options moving forward. Administration, Engineering, Plant Operations, Electrical and Maintenance were all represented at this meeting. After lengthy discussion, the overwhelming majority of the staff participants agreed that given budget constraints and the unfavorable bidding climate, the best course of action is to shelve this project for now, re- bidding it in the fall of this year. It is our recommendation that the Board reject the bid from KG Walters in the amount of $8,146,375, with the intent of re-bidding the project competitively in the fall. In the meantime, Staff will continue to work with the design engineer to address components of the design and contract documents that (1) may have added unnecessary risk recognized by the bidder and (2) may be streamlined to improve the overall performance and value of the project.

Subsurface Recycled Water Pipeline in Public Contact or Buffer Areas Three components are listed here which may be proposed in the future by the District within the project area. These components are not included in the project but if proposed and implemented, they may have an effect on the environment and are included in the cumulative effects analysis in the Em.. These components are: Convert Existing Diamond Ditch to Use for Fresh Water By implementing this component, Diamond Ditch could potentially be used as a fresh water delivery system when recycled water is not being distributed. No other changes would be made to Diamond Ditch under this component. Biosolids Composting This component would include a future facility that would enable the District to compost the biosoilds generated from the treatment plant in South Lake Tahoe. The compost would then be sufficient for land application. This component is a future project that is outside the scope of this environmental document Become a Water Rights BuyerlBroker and to Maintain Value of Recycled Water In this component the District would assume the role of a water rights buyerlbroker with the ability to acquire surface water right entitlements for support of Indian Creek Reservoir, and remove or maintain land in production. No physical infrastructure would be required by this component. -2- -74- The Project site is currently used for a mix of agricultural and treated effluent uses. Future development of new and revised treated effluent measures could have a significant effect on a range of environmental issues, as identified in the attached Initial Study. Consequently, an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) will be prepared to analyze these effects, as well as to explore alternatives to the Project and possible mitigation measures to avoid or lessen identified effects. The South Tahoe Public Utility .District will prepare an EIR for the project under the terms and requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CAL. PUB. RES. CODE SS 21000, et seq.) (CEQA) and the implementing CEQA Guidelines (14 CAL. CODES. REGS. SSI5000, et seq.) (CEQA Guidelines). The purpose ofthe EIR. is to provide decision-makers, public agencies, the general public and other interested parties with an analysis of potential environmental impacts associated with the proposed project, and the alternatives to the project. The purpose of this notice is: (1) to serve as the NOP to potential "Responsible Agencies" as required by Section 15082 of the CEQA Guidelines; and (2) to advise and solicit comments and suggestions regarding the preparation of the EIR., environmental issues to be addressed in the EIR., and any related issues from interested parties other than potential ''Responsible Agencies," including interested or affected members of the public. STPUD will accept written comments regarding this NOP through the close of business, May 18, 2007.

Project Description: The STPun Recycled Water Facilities Master Plan includes a combination of actions to dispose of treated effluent. The Plan updates provisions of the 1989 Master Plan and includes new and revised information on increases in system demands and disposal opportunities and constraints. The project area is located in Alpine County, California The project setting is shown on Figure 1 below. The Master Plan consists of a number of specific components that are capable of being grouped into alternative sets of actions for meeting the Plan's overall objectives. In addition to the No Project alternative that is required by CEQA, the program EIR will evaluate the impacts of the proposed project, components of which are listed below. Alternatives will be generated which will vary in the combination of the listed components. Each of the Master Plan proj ect components that may be included in the alternatives are described briefly below. -6- -78- Project Component Descriptions: Optimize Application Rate on Existing Irrigated Lands The application rate for recycled water used for irrigation on pennitted lands is based on the hydraulic loading rate and nutrient needs of the various combinations of soil and crop types in the area. Optimization of the application rate is required to protect groundwater and surface water resources in the region from possible contamination by nitrogen or other nutrients present in the recycled water and to avoid generating excess runoff (tailwater). The hydraulic loading rate is controlled by soil permeability and nutrient requirements of the irrigated crops. Provide Recycled Water to New Non-Irrigated, Permitted Land Of the total number of acres currently permitted to receive recycled water, approximately 75% use that water for irrigation pwposes. Recycled water is not currently applied to the remaining 25% of the permitted land either due to lack of infrastructure to convey water to some areas, or the permitted acreage is non- pasture/agricultural land. Portions of this land have the potential to receive recycled water, but additional infrastructure is needed. This component would provide for construction of additional facilities to provide water to the remaining portions of the non-irrigated permitted land. Pursue the Permitting of More Land in Alpine County The current amount of acreage to receive the volume recycled water per year that is currently generated is not adequate, and this situation will worsen with the additional recycled water expected to be generated 2020. This problem is exacerbated by development in areas currently receiving recycled water. Therefore, additional lands will need to be pennitted for the application of recycled water if other alternative recycled uses are not implemented. Make Recycled Water Available to Irrigators in Nevada Nevada irrigators downstream from Alpine County currently do not have access to sufficient volumes of fresh water to divert to irrigation in an average or below average precipitation year. Nevada irrigators view recycled water as a desired commodity. Currently, the District's recycled water is not permitted for direct land application in Nevada. This component would pursue the permitting of land in Nevada by the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP) to receive recycled water from Harvey Place Reservoir. Improve Operation of the Diamond Ditch System to Meet District and User Needs The Diamond Ditch Association currently owns the Diamond Ditch system, and the District operates and maintains it. Those costs are not reimbursed, and the irrigators presently have the right to call for water, limiting the District's ability to control operations. Flexibility in control or acquisition of the system would enable better management of operations, provision of recycled water to others, and management of the level of Harvey Place Reservoir. -179- Capacity Conveyance Improvements in the Diamond Ditch System Improvements to the Diamond Ditch System proposed in this component will result in increasing the capacity of the system., stabilize components of the system prone to erosion and/or flooding, and reduce the potential for spills. Provide Recycled Water Under Pressure to the Fredericksburg System The construction of an inverted siphon from Wade Valley to the Fredericksburg System would allow the District to deliver water to the permitted lands not currently receiving water and could also provide the opportunity to deliver to additional acreage not currently pennitted in the area. Provide Recycled Water Under Pressure through Wade Valley TIris component would provide pressure pipe flow from Harvey Place Reservoir for conveying recycled water to users in the system. lIDs component could also allow irrigators to use sprinkler systems in lieu of flood irrigation. Piping could increase recycled water delivery and flexibility in delivery to the users. Piping of the delivery system would also lower the risk of spills. Provide Recycled Water Under Pressure to the Ranchettes This component provides for the delivery of recycled water to the ranchette properties by installing conveyance pipelines. If other components were implemented that involve the installation of pipelines for conveying recycled water under pressure in the Fredericksburg system, under this component the ranchette owners would construct conveyance systems from their properties to the District's pressurized pipeline. Each irrigator would have a flow-totalizing meter to record the volume delivered. Develop Tailwater Control System The development of tail water detention ponds would reduce the likelihood of tailwater flowing off pennitted lands thus ensuring that the pennitted irrigators remain in compliance with applicable tailwater regulations. The tailwater would either be allowed to percolate and evaporate or be pumped back to the irrigation ditch for re-application. Other tailwater options will be explored. Non-Flood Irrigation Application Systems Implementation of this component would study the use of non-flood irrigation technology including the use of either sprinkler or sub-surface irrigation in lieu of flood irrigation to apply recycled water. Both sprinkler and sub-surface irrigation are more efficient than flood irrigation and give the irrigator more control in detennining the amoWlt of water that is applied. These irrigation methods maximize the beneficial use of the recycled water and reduce the likelihood of tailwater flowing off the intended reuse area. ~\o- Improve Recycled Water Quality in the Diamond Ditch System Under this component, the District would implement a program to improve the quality of the recycled water that flows through Diamond Ditch where it is distributed for irrigation. This would be done by mechanical and/or physical aeration methods. Develop Recycled Water Wholesale Program A recycled water wholesale program would allow the District to generate revenue from the sale of recycled water to irrigators. The market price for recycled water would need to be determined and purchase and delivery contracts would need to be in place when the existing contracts expire. Route Mud Lake Winter Flows through Indian Creek Reservoir Mud Lake Reservoir is located in Douglas County, Nevada. The reservoir is supplied by Alpine Decree water right entitlements diverted from the West Fork of the Carson River in Alpine County. This component proposes to negotiate an agreement for the Alpine Decree water rights stored in Mud Lake to route this water through Indian Creek Reservoir. Increased flows through Indian Creek Reservoir would improve water quality. Since Mud Lake water right entitlements cannot be stored in Indian Creek Reservoir, and equal flow would be released into Indian Creek below Harvey Place Reservoir. Groundwater Recharge Using Inf'dtration Basins Implementation of this component entails construction of a rapid infiltration basin for the disposal of some or all of the recycled water from Harvey Place Reservoir. Recycled water that is routed to the infiltration basin would recharge groundwater. The location and size of the basinlBasins has not been determined. Increase Snowshoe Thompson No.1 Conveyance Capacity Increasing the capacity of the Snowshoe Thompson No.1 ditch would 8l10w the District to convey it's full entitlement of water diverted from the West Fork ofthe Carson River. This would result in an increase in the volume of fresh water routed to Indian Creek Reservoir, improving its water quality. The channel improvements can be done by replacing the existing open channel with a pipeline or by making improvements to the existing open channel system. Transfer Additional Water Rights to Storage in Indian Creek Reservoir Under this component, additional water rights from the District and other water rights owners would be transferred to storage in Indian Creek Reservoir. Increased flows of water through Indian Creek Reservoirs would improve water quality and fish habitat. --981- Construct Zero Discharge Basins or Wetlands Under this component the District would construct a zero-discharge artificial wetland for the disposal of recycled water in Alpine County. The recycled water would be disposed in the wetland by evaporation, transpiration, and percolation. The size of the wetland would be based on the volume of wetland requiring disposal. The wetland would consist of several lined ponds and a downstream unlined pond. Vegetation in the lined ponds would assimilate or metabolize nutrients while the unlined pond would allow the percolation of the relatively nutrient-free recycled water to the underlying groundwater. Impoundment Basins with Pumping Back to Harvey Place Reservoir Under this component the District would construct and artificial basin or impoundment consisting of several ponds to contain excess and emergency flows from Harvey Place Reservoir. The basins would be constructed so that the impounded recycled water could be pumped back to Harvey Place Reservoir when desired and returned to the irrigation distribution system. Growing Biomass Crops for Pulp Production Using Recycled Water Under this component recycled water would be used for growing biomass crops (such as poplar and willow) for use in pulp wood production. The crops could be harvested every 4 to 6 years depending on the species and growth characteristics. Wetland Sod and/or Seed Production By implementing this component, the District would generate revenue from the production and sale of wetland sod and seed. Recycled water would be used to grow wetland-species sod for transplantation to mitigation sites. Seeds would also be harvested from mature wetlands and sold for wetland habitat projects. Piping Recycled Water Systems to Minimize Setbacks and Human Contact Under this component, the distribution network would include piping of delivery ditches. Development of a piped recycled water network would lessen the possibility of recycled water contacting humans, reduce any Federally or State mandated setback limits, and allow pressure for the use of sprinkler systems. Mitigation Wetland Creation Using Freshwater and/or Recycled Water Mitigation is required when waters of the State or wetlands of the United States are impacted. Under this component, the District would create a mitigation wetland that would be used to satisfy the mitigation requirements when other waters or wetlands are impacted. Subsurface Recycled Water Pipeline in Public Contact or Buffer Areas Subsurface irrigation technologies allow application of recycled water without the threat of public contact. This application technology could allow the district to irrigate portions of the District-owned property near the school and private residences without -1%2- having to maintain setback and buffer requirements. Subsurface irrigation systems require periodic maintenance and replacement, but permit recycled water application without the human health risk. Three components are listed here which may be proposed in the future by the district within the project area. These components are not included in the project description but if proposed and implemented, they may have an effect on the environment and therefore are included here for inclusion in the cumulative effects analysis in the EIR. These components are listed below: Convert Existing Diamond Ditch to Use for Fresh Water By implementing this component, the District would use the Diamond Ditch for distribution of recycled water and freshwater. Diamond Ditch would then potentially be used as both a fresh water and recycled water delivery system. No other changes would be made to Diamond Ditch under this component. Biosolids Compo sting This component would include a future facility that would enable the District to compost the biosoilds generated from the treatment plant in South Lake Tahoe. The compost would then be sufficient for land application. This component is a future project that is outside the scope of this environmental document Become a Water Rights BuyerlBroker to Maintain Value of Recycled Water In this component the District would assume the role of a water rights buyerlbroker with the ability to acquire swface water right entitlements for support of Indian Creek Reservoir, and remove or maintain land in production. No physical infrastmcture would be required by this component. 9. Surrounding Land Uses and Setting: The subject property is located about I mile east of Highway 89 and I mile south of Highway 88 just to the southeast of the Highway 88/89 Junction at Woodfords, CA. Surrounding land uses include low density residential, agricultural lands, and two reservoirs, Harvey Place Reservoir and Indian Creek Reservoir. Indian Creek Reservoir provides recreational fishing opportunities to the community and tourists. 10. Other Public Agencies Whose Approval is Required (e.g., permits, financing approval, or participation agreement.): Federal Permits: · U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - A Section 404 Permit may need to be obtained to fill wetlands or waters of the U.S. under the Clean Water Act. Section 303, 401, and 402 permits/certifications may also be required. A Rolling Stock Permit will be required for equipment operating within waters of the U.S. · U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service - Before granting a 404 permit or 401 certification the -.J:~3- Corps will ask the USFWS to concur with their decision to issue the permit. If there are endangered species listed under the federal Endangered Species Act, then a consultation and permit under Section 7 ofthe Endangered Species Act may be required. . Advisory Council on Historic Preservation/State Office of Historic Preservation - Before granting a permit the Corps will ask for this agency to concur with their decision to issue the permit. The District will need to manage any cultural resources at the site in accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, as implemented by the State Historic Preservation Officer. . Bureau of Land Management - STPUD currently has agreements with the BLM regarding the use of Harvey Place Reservoir, Indian Creek Reservoir and associated facilities on BLM land. Due to the proposed changes in the use of BLM land, an Environmental Assessment (EA) followed by a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSn or an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) under the National Environmental Protection Act (NEP A) may be required prior to federal approval. . U.S. Forest Service - The Forest Service may be a cooperating agency with the BLM in the fulfillment of any NEP A requirements. . Federal Energy Regulatory Commission - The facility would likely be exempt from FERC permitting because it would use a dam constructed prior to 1977 and generate less than 5 MW. The Corps of Engineers may need to approve the use ofa state waterway to generate power, and because it may affect the fishery in Indian Creek. . U.S. District Court Watennaster - The proposed water system would be entirely new to the Carson River system. The pennitting of the water rights will need approval from the U.S. District Court Watennaster and from the California Department of Water Resources. State of California Permits: . Caltrans - Work within the right-of-way along State Route 89 may need permitting. Transport of heavy or oversized loads during construction may require a Transportation Permit. . Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board - The LRWQCB will have permit authority over recycled water application and rapid infiltration basins for their site- specific requirements, and for compliance with Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations. These would include minimum setback, signage and public notification requirements, and regulations regarding tailwater and application rates to protect groundwater and surface water. . The Board may need to issue a Section 40 I water quality certification for fill of any wetlands or waters of the U.S., which requires a 404 permit, a Section 402 NPDES General Construction Stormwater Discharge Permit, and a Temporary Authority to Discharge into waters of the U.S. If a constructed wetland discharges into a water ofthe U.S. an NPDES Permit will also be needed for that discharge. Activities involving over 5 acres (soon to be reduced to I acre) would require preparation of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan. -1:g.4- · State Department of Water Resources - TIlls agency may need to issue approval of plans and specifications for the modification of existing ponds or construction of wetlands. In addition, the CDWR will need to approve new water rights from creation of the proposed water right system within the Carson River system, in coordination with the U.S. District Court Watermaster. · California Occupational Safety and Health Administration - Cal OSHA may need to issue permits for construction, trench excavation, and demolition. · California Department of Fish and Game - A Streambed Alteration Agreement (Code Section 1601) will be required for any work in Indian Creek or other streams. In addition, if there are affected endangered species as listed under the California Endangered Species Act, a Section 2081 Management Authorization may be required. The possible introduction of Lahontan Cutthroat Trout into Indian Creek would require approval from CDFG. · California Public Utilities Commission - If power is generated and sold to utility companies, state regulations regarding small power-producing facilities will need to be met. If the power is transmitted to a remote site, the system will need to meet Alpine County requirements. Direct sale to the public is possible, but then the District would be an electric utility subject to PUC requirements. · State Historic Preservation Officer - The SHPO will need to provide clearance for any state or federal approvals impacting historic, archaeological or paleontologic resources, or traditional cultural properties affected by the project, as specified by Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. · Great Basin Unified Air Pollution Control District "- The District will be required to obtain an Authority to Construct from the Great Basin Unified Air Pollution Control District for control of dust emissions during construction. No permits to operate are anticipated since the project would entail no emissions-producing equipment. · County of Alpine, California - The County will need to issue grading and building permits for construction, a Use Permit, a General Plan Consistency Review, and a stream crossing permit. Other permits may include a transportation permit for heavy or oversized loads during construction, a County Public Works permit for construction and operation within county rights-of-way and encroachment permits for work in the streams. . 11. Alternatives To Be Considered: A range of project alternatives will be generated based on comments received during the scoping process. These alternatives will be evaluated as part of the EIR. Each alternative will be comprised of a combination of the individual components selected from the overall list above -~5- ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS POTENTIALLY AFFECTED: The environmental factors checked below would be potentially affected by this project, involving at least one impact that is a "Potentially Significant Impact" as indicated by the checklist on the following pages. X Aesthetics Agriculture Resources Air Quality Biological Resources Cultural Resources Geology /Soils Hazards & Hazardous X Hydrology / Water Land Use / Planning Materials Quality Mineral Resources Noise Population / Housing Public Services X Recreation Transportationffraffic Utilities / Service Systems X Mandatory Findings of Significance DETERMINATION: (To be completed by the Lead Agency) On the basis of this initial evaluation: I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because revisions in the project have been made by or agreed to by the project proponent. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I I fmd that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENfAL IMPACT REPORT is required. I find that the proposed project MAY have a "potentially significant impact" or "potentially significant unless mitigated" impact on the environment, but at least one effect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed. I fmd that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards, and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARA nON, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project, nothing furthe,r is required. -14- -86- /- I!!--I EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS: The following checklist is used to evaluate the potential of the project for significant environmental impacts. Because the lead agency has decided to prepare an Em, mitigation is not dermed herein, but will be developed and specified in the Mitigation Monitoring Program as part of the EIR process. References used to develop these evaluations are listed at the back of this document and are available for review at the South Tahoe Public Utility District. Potentially Significant Impact Less than Significant with M11Igatlon Incorporation Less than Slgnlftcant No Impact I. Aesthetics Would the project: a. Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? ,/ ,/ b. Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway? c. Substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site and its surrounding? d. Create a new source of substantial light or glare that would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? Analysis ,/ ,/ a.-c. Construction of treatment wetlands, conveyances, modified operations in Indian Creek, and modifications to existing California and Nevada recycled water operations could alter and substantially damage existing scenic resources in the area. This would affect views by recreational users and travelers along Highway 88, which is a designated Federal Scenic Byway and is designated a Scenic Highway by Alpine County. The East Fork of the Carson River is designated as a Scenic River by the State of California. d. The project would not create new sources of light and glare. -15- -87- Potentially Significant Impact Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporation Less than Significant No Impact II. Agriculture Resources In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model (1997) prepared by the California Department of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agriculture and fannland. Would the project: a. Convert Prime Fannland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-agricultural use? b. Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act? c. Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of Farmland, to non-agricultural use? Analysis ~ ~ ~ a. The project will not convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Fannland of Statewide Importance. Implementation will enhance and possibly extend agricultural uses in the area. b. No conflicts with existing zoning of Williamson Act contracts are anticipated. The project will enhance agricultural uses. c. The project is not expected to encourage the conversion of other lands to non-agricultural use. It will enable enhanced agricultural uses in the area. Potentially Significant Impact Less than slgnlflcant with MItIgation Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact III. Air Quality Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable Air Quality Management or Air Pollution Control District may be relied upon to make the following determinations. Would the proposal: a. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? b. Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? ~ ~ -16- -88- Potentially SIgnificant Impact Less than significant with Mftfgation Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact c. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? d. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations? -/ -/ e. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number ofpeople? Analysis -/ a. The proposed project would serve growth that is projected in the Alpine County General Plan, EI Dorado County General Plan, and TRP A Transportation! Air Quality Plan, and would thus be expected to be included in growth forecasts used to develop those plans. Alpine County is part of the Great Basin Unified Air Pollution Control District, which is classified as non-attainment of the State standard for suspended particulate matter. Construction of the new effluent recycling facilities would be subject to all current air quality rules and regulations. Project operation will not be a source of particulate emissions, and will thus not interfere with attainment of the ambient air quality standard for particulates in Alpine County. b-d. Demolition of old facilities and construction of the new facilities would result in generation of dust, as measured by particulate matter less than 10 microns in diameter. Other pollutants, primarily nitrogen oxides, are also generated during construction. Mitigation in the form of dust control and equipment maintenance measures will be required to reduce dust and other emissions to less than significant. Project operations will not be a source of new emissions from equipment or vehicles. Sensitive receptors located in the vicinity of the project include the Diamond Valley Elementary School and the Washoe Community. With mitigation of construction emissions to insignificance, students at the school would not be exposed to substantial pollutant concentrations. e. Discharge of reclaimed water does not create objectionable odors or degrade air quality. Potentially Significant Impact Less than significant with Mitigation Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact IV. Biological Resources Would the project: -17- -89- Potentially SIgnificant Impact I..e$sthan sIgnificant with MItigation Incorporation Less than SIgnificant Impact No Impact a. Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies. or regulations, or by the California Department ofFish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? b. Have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive nat~1 community identified in local or regional plans, policies. regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? c. Have a substantial adverse effect on federally protected wetlands as dermed by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means? d. Interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors or impede the use of native wildlife nursery site? e. Conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a tree preservation policy or ordinance? f. Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan? Analysis ./ ./ ./ ./ ./ ./ a. The Lahontan cutthroat trout is included on the Federal List of Endangered Species, and is found in Alpine County. The proposed project will improve water quality in Indian Creek and Indian Creek Reservoir. The project may increase the volume of freshwater entering Indian Creek Reservoir, improving water quality and fish and wildlife habitat. b. Project construction has the potential to affect riparian habitat along Indian Creek, which would require mitigation. See item c. for a discussion of potential effects on wetland habitats. c. Construction of wetlands and related facilities for disposal of recycled water would have the beneficial effect of creating new habitat. Construction activities may temporarily impact existing wetlands and riparian areas, requiring mitigation. These impacts would cease at the end of construction. -18- -90- d. The project may affect wildlife movement or corridors because of new drainage crossings to be constructed. While the effects would be temporary, mitigation will need to be designed to restrict construction work in active streams. Siting of constructed wetlands would not be expected to adversely affect wildlife migration. However, the project could impact resting, feeding, and potential breeding habitat for waterfowl. Pond improvements could temporarily disturb areas used by waterfowl. If migratory or special status bird species nest within the zone of impact, then construction effects would be considered significant if they occur at the same time as avian reproductive efforts. Potential sites for raptor nests may occur within the riparian habitat along Indian Creek. Mitigation measures will be required to protect birds in the construction area. e. Construction has the potential to affect riparian habitat along Indian Creek. Mitigation may be required to ensure that trees or riparian vegetation along the riparian corridor are preserved. f. This site is not included in any local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan. Potentially Significant Impact Less than significant with MItigation Incorporation Less than Slgnlflcant No Impact \I. Cultural Resources Would the project: a. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as defined in ~15064.5? b. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archeological resource pursuant to ~15064.S? c. Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic feature? d. Disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of formal cemeteries? Analysis ./ ./ ./ ./ a. A complete cultural resource survey has not been completed for the entirety of the project area. Therefore the potential exists for significant historical resources to present within the project area and for impacts to occur. This impacts is considered potentially significant. b. Previous investigations have identified no known archaeological resources in the vicinity of the project site. Mitigation would be incorporated in the project to address the possibility of uncovering previously unidentified buried cultural resources during construction. c. Part of the project site is already disturbed, and there are no known unique paleontological resources or geologic features. -19- -91- d. Mitigation would be included in the project to address the possibility of uncovering previously unidentified human remains during project construction. Mitigation would reduce this potential impact to less than significant. Potentially Significant Impact Less than Significant with Mltfgatlon Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact VI. Geologic Problems Would the project: a. Expose people or structures to potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk ofloss, injury, or death involving: i. Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as delineated on the most recent Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist for the area or based on other substantial evidence of a known fault? Refer to Division of Mines and Geology Special Publication 42. ii. Strong seismic ground shaking? ./ iii. Seismic-related ground failure, including liquefaction? iv. Landslides? ./ ./ b. Result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? ./ ./ ./ c. Be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the project, and potentially result in on- or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction or collapse? d. Be located on expansive soil, as dermed in Table 18-1-B of the Uniform Building Code (1994), creating substantial risks to life or property? e. Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative waste water disposal systems? Analysis ./ ./ a. Geologic reports done for two projects in the Woodfords area indicate that those developments were in a Zone 4 area and that structural design for ZOne 4 per the Uniform Building Code was required. In Alpine County the most probable ground failures resulting from seismic activity would be from landslides or liquefaction. The project area is subject to induced ground shaking, landslides in some locations, and liquefaction. Mitigation would be required in the design of facilities to withstand an earthquake. b. Site grading could cause erosion, resulting in sedimentation of local water bodies. Mitigation would be required to minimize erosion. -20- -92- c. The project site is subject to liquefaction and would require mitigation. See item a. d. The soils in the area may be expansive. Mitigation would be required to ensure that facilities are designed to withstand the effects of soil expansion-contraction. e. The project does not involve use of septic systems or other alternative wastewater disposal systems. Potentially Significant Impact Less than significant with Mitigation IncorPor:at1on Less than Significant Impact No Impact VII. Hazards/Hazardous Materials Would the proposal involve: a. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials? b. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment? c. Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one- quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? d. Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment? e. For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public aitport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? f. For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? g. Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan. h. Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injwy or death involving wildland fires, including where wildlands are adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with wildlands? Analysis ./ ./ ./ ./ ./ ./ ./ ./ a. No hazardous materials are associated with the proposed project. -21- -93- b. No hazardous materials are expected to be used in project operation. Minor amounts of hazardous materials would be used during construction of the facilities (e.g. fuel for vehicles), but compliance with Federal and State hazardous materials laws and regulations would minimize the risk to the public presented by these potential hazards. c. No hazardous materials will be used near Diamond Valley School. d. The Project location is not known to be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant Government Code Section 65962.5. This will be confirmed as part of the EIR analysis. e. Alpine County Airport is located several miles from the Project site, and the project site is outside the Airport's land use plan. The proposed Recycled Water Facilities Master Plan does not represent an increased risk to hwnan safety associated with airport use. f. There is no private airstrip in the vicinity of the project site. g. Some construction will occur alongside and crossing public roads. The Project will propose mitigation measures to minimize interference with adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation routes. h. The project components include new wetlands, irrigation areas, pipelines, changes in operations, etc. None of these components expose more people or structures to existing flre hazard areas. Potentially Significant Impact Less than slgnlflcant with MHfgatlon Incorporation Less than Slgnrtlcant Impact No Impact VIII. Hydrology and Water Quality Would the project: a. Cause a violation of any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements. or worsen any existing such violations? b. Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantial with groundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or lowering of the local groundwater table level (e.g., the production rate of pre-existing nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which pennits have been granted)? c. Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including the alteration of the course of stream or ri ver in a manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site? vi' vi' vi' -22- -94- Potentially Significant Impact Less than significant with Mitigation Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact d. Create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned stonnwater drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff? e. Otherwise substantially degrade water quality? y' y' f. Place housing within a lOO-year flood hazard area as mapped on a federal flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map? g. Place within a lOO-year flood hazard area structures that would impede or redirect flood flows? h. Expose people or structures to a significant risk ofloss, injury or death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of the failure of a levee or dam? i. Be subject to inundation by seiche, tsunanii, or mudtlow? y' y' y' y' Analysis a. Land application of recycled water and the construction of wetlands for disposal of recycled water have the potential to degrade groundwater quality from the nitrogen or other nutrients present in the recycled water. The project ~ill comply with Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations regarding tailwater and application rates will be plamled to minimize surface water and groundwater impacts. The replacement of ditches with piping will help prevent groundwater contamination. Groundwater quality will be monitored according to NPDES and other permit requirements to ensure maintenance of quality. Increasing the flow through Indian Creek Reservoir will improve water quality in that impoundment, but may result in an increase in phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations in Indian Creek downstream from the reservoir. These issues will be evaluated further in the EIR and additional mitigation measures proposed if necessary. b. Infrastructure and irrigation improvements, new wetlands, and new conveyance facilities would not interfere with groundwater recharge and would not use groundwater. The proposed project will enhance groundwater supplies. c. Most of the proposed facilities. would be constructed in sites already used for the District's existing recycled water disposal system and would not substantially alter the drainage pattern of the area. New wetlands and conveyance facilities may be constructed, but these would not change the overall drainage pattern of the area. Improvement of conveyance facilities will reduce erosion or siltation from open ditches. d. The planned improvements would not create or contribute to runoff water from the project site. Discharge does not create runoff and will not alter existing drainage patterns. e. The EIR will evaluate overall water quality impacts of the project including the potential for groundwater contamination associated with new facilities. The EIR will evaluate potential -23- -95- impacts to water quality of Indian Creek associated with the recycling and discharge, and determine if mitigation is available to reduce the impacts, if any, to less than significant. f. The project does not include any housing. g. A portion of the proposed wetlands and other facilities may be located within the 100-year floodplain. The Em.. will determine whether the wetlands would impede or redirect flood flows, or worsen any existing flooding problems. h. The proposed project does not include any new levees or dams. Failure of Indian Creek Reservoir dam could inflict damage. County regulations require that proposed construction include review of flood potential. The EIR will evaluate whether increased water recycling activity would increase the risk of downstream flooding from dam or irrigation ditch failure. 1. The proposed project area is not subject to seiche, tsunami, or mudflow. PotenUally Significant Impact Less than slgnlfleant with Mltlptfon IncorporaUon Less than Significant Impact No Impact IX. Land Use and Planning Would the project: a. Physically divide an established community? b. Conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project (including, but not limited to the general plan, specific plan, local coastal program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect? c. Conflict with any applicable hab-itat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan? Analysis -/ -/ -/ a. Proposed project components do not divide any established community. b. Proposed project components do not appear to conflict with any applicable land use plans or regulations. Because the District's facilities provide recycled water to irrigate agricultural lands, they support the continued agricultural use of lands zoned for land extensive agriculture and would be consistent with policies in the Alpine County general plan. This issue will be evaluated further in the EIR. c. There are no habitat conservation plans or natural community conservation plans in this area. -24- -96- Potentially Significant Impact less than significant with Mitigation Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact X Mineral Resources Would the project: a. Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of value to the region and the residents of the state? b. Result in the loss of availability of a locally-important mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan? Analysis ,/ ,/ a-b. The primary mineral resource in the project area is aggregate. The project site has not been identified as an aggregate resource. The increased use of recycled water would not affect the availability of mineral resources. Therefore, no impacts on mineral resources are identified. Potentially Significant Impact Less than significant with Mitigation Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact XI. Noise Would the project result in: a. Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in excess of standards establishes in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies? b.

A substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project? d. A substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project? e. For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? ../ ,/ ../ ../ ../ -25- -97- Potentlatry Significant Impact Less than significant with MItigation Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact f. For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? Analysis ./ a. Construction of facilities would require mitigation to ensure that noise levels comply with Alpine County standards. b. Although there may be some minor ground-borne noise and vibration during construction this is expected to be temporary, and therefore less than significant. c. No permanent increase in noise levels are expected to occur as a result of the project implementation. d. Construction noise would be potentially significant without mitigation. See item a. e. The proposed project is further than two miles from an airport. f. The Alpine County Airport is in the project vicinity. The facility is lightly used and the proposed project would not expose people in the area to excessive noise levels. Potentially Significant Impact Less than Significant with MUigatlon Incorporation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact XII. Population and Housing Would the project: a. Induce substantial population growth in an area, either directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? b. Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? c. Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? Analysis ./ ./ ./ a. Construction of the new facilities will enable improved water recycling activities and assist growth consistent with TRP A, El Dorado County, and Alpine County general plans. It will not induce or enable substantial new growth either in the Lake Tahoe area or rural Alpine County. -26- -98- b. Construction of wetlands and conveyance facilities will not displace existing housing. c. Construction of wetlands and conveyance facilities will not displace people. Potentially Significant Impact Less than significant with MItigation Incorporation Less than SIgnificant Impact No Impact XIII. Public Services Would the project result in substantial adverse physi~l impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: a. Fire protection? b. Police protection? ./ ./ ./ ./ c. Schools? d. Parks? e. Other public facilities? Analysis a-e. Construction and operation of the new recycled water disposal facilities will not induce population or employment growth, interfere with delivery of public services, or othelWise impact the need for public services in the area. Potimtlafly Significant Impact Less than significant with MftIgatlon IncorporatJon Less Than Slgnlflc;:ant No Impact XlV. Recreation a. Would the project increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? b. Does the project include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities that might have an adverse physical effect on the environment? Analysis ./ ./ a. The project would not increase permanent population or employment growth in the area. Improved surface water quality could enhance the potential in the area for recreational use, especially for fishing. See the response to Item b. -27- -99- b. Increased recreational use of the site IS not expected to occur as a result of project implementation. Potentially Significant Impact Less than significant with MftlgaUon Incorporation Less than Significant Impact No Impact X\f. Transportationffraffic Would the project: a. Cause an increase in traffic, which is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system (i.e., result in a substantial increase in either the number of vehicles trips. the volume to capacity ratio on roads, or congestion at intersections)? b. Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level of service standard established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? c. Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that results in substantial safety risks? d. Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (i.e., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? e. Result in inadequate emergency access? ./ ./ ./ ./ f. Result in inadequate parking capacity? ./ ./ g. Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks)? Analysis ./ a. Construction vehicles would temporarily increase traffic on Highways 88 and 89, and local roadways in the area, but this increase would not be expected to represent a substantial increase over the existing traffic load. Operational traffic increases would be negligible. b. Level of service standards on designated roads or highways, or on local streets, are not expected to be impacted or exceeded in the area due to its limited population. c. The project will not result in a change in air traffic patterns. d. The proposed facilities do not include any roadway design features affecting safety. All project facility roadway crossings will be designed to meet safety standards. e. The project will not result in inadequate emergency access to the site or access to nearby uses. All construction of pipelines would be done in such a way as to maintain emergency access. -28- -100- f. Adequate on-site parking for construction workers is expected to be available. Parking at the site will be available for workers operating the facilities. g. The project will not conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation. Potentially SIgnificant Impact Less than slgnmc:ant with Mitigation Incorporation Less than Slgnlfk:ant Impact No Impact XVI. Utilities and Service Systems Would the project: a. Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the applicable Regional Water Quality Control Board? b. Require or result in the construction of new water or wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? c. Require or result in the construction of new stonn water drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities? d. Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project from existing entitlements and resources, or are new or expanded entitlements needed? e. Result in a detennination by the wastewater treatment provider that serves or may serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project's projected demand in addition to the provider's existing commitments? f. Be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to accommodate the project's solid waste disposal needs? g. Comply with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations related to solid waste? Analysis ./ ./ ~ ~ ./ ~ ./ a. The new facilities will have to meet the treatment requirements of the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board in order to operate. b. Because the project is the construction and expansion of water recycling facilities, the project in and of itself will not require any additional construction or expansion. c. Operation of the new facilities may require construction of new stormwater drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities. A Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan will be implemented to ensure the reduction of sediment and other pollutants in the stormwater discharge from the construction site. d. The proposed project will not have any requirements for additional water supplies. -29- -101- e. The project itself will not create wastewater. It is planned to improve the recycling and disposal of treated effluent from District wastewater treatment facilities to enable the District to meet future increases in treatment and disposal demands. f. Project construction will generate construction debris that will be disposed in approved solid waste facilities. Project operation is expected to create some demand for solid waste disposal (such as disposal of vegetation and soil from constructed basins), but this is not expected to adversely impact landfill capacities. g. The project will comply with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations related to solid waste. XVI. Mandatory Findings of Significance a.
