• Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Page IV.H-6 Forward Inc. Landfill 2018 Expansion Project Since the 2013 EIR was prepared, the following project was approved by the City of • Stockton: • Tidewater Crossing, located west of Highway 99 and north of French Camp Road, an 878-acre residential development with 2,365 dwelling units. This project has • not yet been constructed so is part of the cumulative development scenario. The cumulative effects of the project together with other existing, approved, and likely • development have been considered and discussed in detail in each of the various analyses • of Chapter IV. In summary, the following significant and unavoidable cumulative impacts were identified: • Eight study intersections are projected to operate at unacceptable conditions in the 2035 condition without any improvements. However, a large number of roadway and signalization improvements are required as mitigation or otherwise included in the other approved projects. These are summarized in the 2018 TIA. Implementation of these improvements would reduce the significantly impacted • intersections to the following: o SR 99 SB On-off Ramps &E. French Camp Rd., (AM and PM peak hours) o SR 99 Urban Interchange&Arch Rd. (AM and PM peak hours) • o SR 99 SB On-off Ramps &Mariposa Rd. (AM and PM peak hours) • o SR 99 NB On-off Ramps&Mariposa Rd. (PM peak hour) The project also would contribute to a cumulatively significant impact at the • Arch Road and Austin Road intersection, however mitigation measures • identified in this EIR would reduce that impact to a less-than0-significant level. e No mitigation measures are available that would reduce the impacts at these • intersections to a less than significant level. In the worst case, the 2018 expansion project's contributions to cumulative impacts at these four intersections, as defined by County policy, would be considerable, and would be a significant unavoidable impact. • The cumulative noise analysis found that the near-term and 2036 (based on 2035 traffic models)noise level increases attributed to increased traffic from other planned development and the increased project truck traffic would exceed the significance • criteria at many of the roadway segments (see Table IV.0-4 columns identified as "Change Existing + Project + Cum from Existing"; "Change 2035 Cum NP from Existing NP";and "Change 2035+Project from Existing NP"). The table shows that the noise levels would increase in 2036 by a significant amount (compared to the existing levels) before addition of the noise from the increased project truck traffic. • The additional truck traffic noise that would be associated with the proposed • project would further increase traffic noise and contribute to a significant cumulative noise impact.
