Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Page IV.B-10 Forward Inc. Landfill 2018 Expansion Project on a conversion factor of 1 truck vs.2 passenger cars(PCE). The final daily trip generation for the Project evaluated in the study is 1,600 passenger car trips. Table IV.B-5 shows a summary of Project trip generation estimates. Table IV.B-5: Forward Landfill "Project"Trip Generation Estimates AM Peak Hour Trips(PCE) PM Peak Hour Trips (PCE) Daily Trips(PCE) Inbound Outbound Inbound Outbound Inbound Outbound 108 132 70 106 800 800 Note: The above trip estimates were determined based on the maximum permitted daily trucks minus current daily truck count.Peak-hour trips were determined based on turning movement counts conducted at Forward Landfill main access driveway.The above trips are one-way passenger equivalent trips Passenger car equivalents(PCE)are 2 trips/truck. Project Trip Distribution Assumptions The directional distribution of the project traffic,which identifies the potential routes of travel, was estimated based on examinations of the study area street layout, land use, current ' circulation patterns and traffic volumes, along with consultation from County staff. Figure IV.13-3 shows the estimated directional Project traffic distribution. Impact B.1. Potential Project Impact to LOS at Nearby Intersections. (Revises 2013 EIR Impact B.1). Intersection Analysis This section of this traffic study describes conditions that would exist under Existing-Plus- Project conditions. Comparing Existing-Plus-Project conditions to the no project conditions results in an identification of project-related impacts. Table IV.B-6 shows traffic LOS for the existing-plus-project conditions. Figure IV.B-4 shows existing-plus-project traffic volumes. As shown in the table and figure, all of the study intersections currently operate at acceptable conditions and would continue to operate at acceptable conditions LOS "C" or better with the Project. Therefore, the Project's impact to intersection LOS would be less than significant.
