1 <br /> Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Page IV.B-18 <br /> Forward Inc. Landfill 2018 Expansion Project <br /> Two cumulative scenarios are described in this section. The first cumulative condition is <br /> composed of existing traffic conditions plus traffic generated by previously approved projects <br /> likely to be constructed in the near term. This near-term condition is referred to as Existing Plus <br /> Approved Projects (EPAP) conditions. The second cumulative scenario is a long-term forecast <br /> of traffic conditions in the year 2035. Both conditions assume full operation of the existing <br /> Forward Landfill for the life of the existing permits (see Project Description for a full discussion <br /> of permitted development). Both cumulative scenarios are described below. <br /> Previously Approved Projects <br /> County staff identified three nearby projects to include in the Approved Projects inventory for 1 <br /> the transportation analysis conducted by Republic ITS for the previous 2013 EIR. After the 2013 <br /> EIR traffic study was prepared, one of the approved projects identified in the 2013 EIR, the <br /> California Health Care Facility,was completed. (The California Health Care Facility is <br /> described in Setting, Surrounding and Nearby Land Uses of W.A. Land Use and Agricultural <br /> Resources.) The other two approved projects identified in the 2013 EIR and not yet constructed ' <br /> are listed below. <br /> • Archtown Industrial Project, at the southwest comer of Newcastle and Arch Roads. <br /> • Arch Road Industrial Project,Ion the south side of Arch Road between Austin and <br /> Newcastle Roads,west of the Northern California Re-Entry Facility. <br /> According San Joaquin County and City of Stockton Planning staff,two additional approved ' <br /> but not yet built projects would likely add traffic to the study area: Norcal Logistic Center <br /> located north of Arch Road between Austin Road and Newcastle Road, and Tidewater Crossing <br /> located west of SR 99 and south of the Stockton Airport. Norcal Logistic Center is primarily a <br /> warehousing and distribution facility, while Tidewater Crossing is a mixed-use project with <br /> residential, industrial, school, and other uses.The previously approved Mariposa Lakes <br /> Development located north of the Mariposa Road and Austin Road intersection is not expected <br /> to be operational in the project lifetime, according to Stockton planning staff, and as such is not <br /> included in the eumulative previously approved projects (short-term cumulative)scenario. It is <br /> included in the year 2035 buildout scenario. Table IV.B-10 shows the estimated trips from these ' <br /> projects. <br /> Table IV.B-10: Approved"Project" Trip Generation Estimates <br /> AM Peak-Hour Trips PM Peak-Hour Trips <br /> Enter Exit Enter Exit <br /> Norcal Logistic Center 690 439 502 879 <br /> Tidewater Crossing 1847 1514 1916 2481 ' <br /> Archtown Industrial 154 98 112 196 <br /> Arch Road Industrial 136 87 98 175 <br /> Note:The above trip estimates were obtained from the traffic studies prepared for the approved <br /> projects. <br />
