the Storm Water Master Plan Update,the drainage plan prepared for the College Park site(MacKay& Somps <br /> 2004),describes the proposed drainage facilities that would be constructed to safely control and convey <br /> stormwater runoff from the project site.The plan reflects the changes in land uses that would occur under the <br /> proposed buildout of College Park compared to the land uses that were addressed in the Mountain House Storm <br /> Water Master Plan Update(MHCSD 2003).The principal change between the proposed and original land use _ <br /> plans with respect to stormwater drainage is the inclusion of Delta College in an area previously proposed for <br /> residential use; it is currently designated as a commercial/industrial development. <br /> As described in Chapter 4.7,"Drainage,"the stormwater drainage system for the College Park area would consist <br /> of a gravity conveyance system that directs drainage north to other facilities already under construction for the <br /> entire Mountain House community. In accordance with the Mountain House Storm Water Master Plan Update <br /> (MHCSD 2003)and Mountain House Storm Water Master Plan Update, Addendum (May 2004),most of the — <br /> drainage from the eastern portion of Neighborhoods B and D would flow to Water Quality Basin No. 1 (WQBI), <br /> which is located immediately northwest of the intersection of Mountain House Parkway and Byron Road. <br /> Drainage from the western portion of Neighborhoods A and B would flow to a new water quality basin that would <br /> be located in the southwest quadrant at the intersection of Central Parkway and Grant Line Road. A new water <br /> quality basin,located in the southwest quadrant at the intersection of Central Parkway and Grant Line Road,shall <br /> conform with the first flash treatment required for commercial and industrial drainage from the western portion of <br /> Basins A and B as designated in the College Park at Mountain House Specific Plan Ill,Figure 15-1 (MacKay& <br /> Somps 2004).Treated runoff shall then merge with the`clean"storm drain system within Central Parkway. <br /> As also described in Chapter 4.7,the modeled stormwater runoff volumes for the proposed project are not <br /> appreciably higher than those estimated for development under the MHMP.WQB1 may need to be slightly <br /> enlarged to accommodate the additional flow from the College Park site to achieve acceptable levels of water <br /> quality treatment. Table 4.8-2 shows the estimated stormwater runoff volumes for the 24-hour, 100-year storm <br /> event from the project site based on model results presented in the College Park drainage plan and the Mountain <br /> House Storm Water Master Plan Update(MHCSD 2003). <br /> Table 4.8-2 <br /> Estimated 24-hour, 100-Year Stormwater Runoff Volume on the College Park Site <br /> and Contributing Watershed under Existing and Developed Conditions <br /> Existing• Included in MHMPb Included in Proposed Projectc <br /> Acreage modeled 1,368 1,194 1,368 <br /> Runoff volume(acre-feet) 250 220 261 <br /> Notes: <br /> Existing runoff volume calculated based on ratio of total existing runoff in Mountain House watershed to runoff with Mountain House <br /> development as identified in Mountain House Storm Water Master Plan Update(MHCSD 2003). <br /> " Modeled land uses in the Mountain House Storm Water Master Plan Update(MHCSD 2003);total land area included in the model for the <br /> College Park area and in the watershed located upstream of College Park was slightly less than modeled for the College Park area <br /> drainage plan(MacKay&Somps 2004). <br /> ` Modeled land uses in the College Park drainage plan(MacKay&Somps 2004 . <br /> The constituent mass loading analysis was based on the"Simple Method"developed by the EPA and currently <br /> being used in the PLOAD constituent-loading module of the EPA BASINS modeling program for watershed <br /> runoff evaluation(EPA 2001).The EPA method provides a mass-loading estimate based on runoff volumes and <br /> research-based estimates of event mean concentrations of constituents in stormwater runoff.The constituent mass <br /> loading analysis was conducted using the following equation: <br /> L=QxCx0.226 <br /> L=constituent load(pounds) <br /> Q=runoff volume(acre-feet) — <br /> C=event mean constituent concentration(mg/L) <br /> 0.226=units conversion factor <br /> EDAW College Park at Mountain House Specific Plan III Draft EIR <br /> Water Duality 4.8-10 San Joaquin County <br />
