The commercial/office/industrial uses would include 1.5 acres of <br /> neighborhood commercial uses, 16.8 acres of office commercial uses,and 86.5 acres of limited industrial uses. A <br /> fully improved arterial roadway system would be developed to provide access to and within the proposed project <br /> site. Sound walls would be developed along Grant Line Road and DeAnza Boulevard to separate project <br /> neighborhoods from roadways and to provide sound attenuation and privacy.The parks and open-space/resource <br /> conservation area is included in the open-space corridor. <br /> The proposed project would also extend utility infrastructure(i.e.,water,wastewater,drainage,electricity,gas, <br /> telephone,cable,and roads)to the proposed project site,possibly widen and improve Grant Line Road from two <br /> to four lanes,possibly widen Mountain House Parkway from four to six lanes,and use interim land disposal of <br /> tertiary-treated wastewater on 137 acres,of which 30 acres are to be used as a storage pond. <br /> Storm drainage,water, and wastewater treatment service would be provided to the proposed project site through <br /> the extension of existing water and sewer pipelines owned and maintained by the Mountain House Community <br /> Services District (MHCSD).The Mountain House Wastewater Treatment Plant would require expansion to serve <br /> the proposed project land uses that have been reviewed and approved as a separate project under CEQA. In <br /> addition, expansion of the Mountain House Water Treatment Plant would be required to serve the project that is <br /> being planned in two expansions rhat are anticipated to be completed in 2006. <br /> EDAW College Park at Mountain House Specific Plan III Draft EIR <br /> Summary 2-2 San Joaquin County <br />
