i <br /> 1 4 " <br /> Tom Gau, Senior Civil gineer <br /> May 4, 1998 <br /> Page 4 <br /> I Stockton's adopted Wastewater Treatment Master Plan points out that <br /> certain unit processes at the RWCF are approaching their functional <br /> capacity (Metcalf and Eddy 1987). Engineering-Science also points out in <br /> their 1992 Secondary Treatment Facilities Expansion Study that the actual <br /> - wastewater treatment capacity is estimated to be 38 million gallons per day <br /> i (MGD) of average dry weather flow. The present amount of average dry <br /> f <br /> weather flow being treated at the RWCF is approximately 30 MGD during <br /> the non-canning season and 38 MGD during the canning season. The City <br /> has initiated the construction of a six staged plant expansion program at the <br /> RWCF to increase the overall treatment plant capacity. Under the expansion <br /> program, the RWCF would be capable of treating 42 MGD by December, <br /> f 2003. <br /> 1 Existing Collection System: The proposed project area is not currently <br /> serviced by the Stockton sewage collection and treatment system. The <br /> s nearest point of connection is an existing 33" gravity sewer located north <br /> I <br /> and west of the project site (at Arch-Sperry Road and Alitalia Ave.). <br /> + The 33" sewer, to which this project site would connect, is at the upstream <br /> end of Collection System No. 8. This system, also referred to as the south <br /> Stockton Sewer, conveys much of the sewage from south Stockton to the <br /> RWCF. <br /> Cordrnuec <br /> Impacts on Treatment Plant Capacity <br /> Because of the limited capacity of the existing treatment plant,'the City f <br /> cannot guarantee adequate capacity to serve the increasing wastewater,: <br /> demands of the approved but unconstructed projects plus this proposed <br /> ,project: As a result, the projected demand for wastewater treatment <br /> represents a significant potential adverse impact. This impact, however, can <br /> be reduced to a less-than-significant level by implementing the proposed <br /> mitigation measures. These measures include the payment of the <br /> appropriate sanitary sewer connection fees to the City which would be used <br /> to construct the planned RWCF Staged Expansion Project as well as other <br /> improvements. <br /> Level of Significance: Potentially Significant <br /> Mitigation Measures: The owners, developers and/or successors-in-interest <br /> ` shall be responsible for the following mitigation measures: <br /> 1. Prior 'to issuance of building permits, pay the applicable sewer, <br /> connection fees required for Improvements to the Stockton Regional <br /> Wastewater Control Facilities. <br /> } Significance After Mitigation: Less than Significant <br /> Miti ation lm lementation and Monitorin : <br /> w implementation and Monitoring: The Community Development Department <br />
