MOUNTAIN HOUSE PROPOSED ALTAMONT HmmTs TENTATIVE MAP 4.ENVIRONMENTAL.CHECKLIST <br /> 4.16 UTILITIES AND SERVICE <br /> 1 <br /> 'The agreement between MHCSD ands BBID allows BBID to;supply more.than 9,413 afy <br /> to MHCSD if BB1D has excess_ water available. Projections of'all the future demands for. <br /> BBID are presented in Table 1 of the WSA The projecti6hs indicate that,BBID.would <br /> have 262 afy of excess water m the year 2025 (50,000 afy`,49,73$.afy)_. However tithe <br /> `future demands include 4,616 afy.for the East4Altamont Energy Cerner .This project has <br /> been terrniriated. Therefore;BBID would have 4,878 afy(262 afy+4',616 afy) of excess <br /> available supply in normal:years. Therefore, BBID could supply an additional 257 afy to <br /> MHCSD to satisfy the excess demand described above in most years. <br /> . , <br /> • The MHMP states that lands north of Byron Road between the El.Peseado Grant Line <br /> and Old River have riparian water rights amounting to 2;600"afy that could be used on <br /> these lands if the land owners choose to enter into'a transfer agreement with BBID. <br /> Mountain House Community Neighborhoods Ithrough L are located in Lthis area:.It <br /> should be noted that these riparian'rights could be curtailed by DWR.during a water <br /> shortage in <br /> y g dry Years. <br /> • Chapter 2 of MHCSD Ordinance 4056 establishes five stages of water allocations(i.e., <br /> rationing) that could be enacted to reduce demand during water shortage emergencies. <br /> The amount of water conservation that is actually achieved will be an important factor in <br /> providing a reliable water supply to meet future demands. Specific Plan III Implementation <br /> Measure 12.2.3.c states that water use shall be monitored continuously and adjustment to <br /> supply made as necessary as directed by the MHCSD. <br /> 5 <br /> c The WSA states that Specific Plan III's proportionate share of the 257 afy shortfall is 41 afy. <br /> In response to this conclusion, Specific Plan III proponents proposed that an additional 60 afy <br /> of non-potable water would be provided to the College Park site by BBID for landscape <br /> irrigation. With construction of this non-potable water system, adequate additional water <br /> would be provided to make up the 41-afy shortfall identified in the WSA. Therefore, <br /> adequate water would be provided to serve the proposed project,and a less-than-significant <br /> impact would occur. <br /> F <br /> e) Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider which serves or may <br /> serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project's projected demand <br /> in addition to the provider's existing commitments? <br /> The MHCSD, the wastewater treatment provider for the Mountain House Community, does <br /> not have a commitment to provide wastewater treatment for any community or area other <br /> than the MHMP area. The MHCSD may provide wastewater treatment to existing houses on <br /> the south side of Grant Line Road(Grant Line Village) and the south bank of Old River if <br /> those property owners choose to annex to the MHCSD, but the amount of wastewater <br /> generated by these houses would be small. Future expansions of the WWTP are discussed in <br /> SPIREIR_ Since these expansions must occur prior to occupancy of houses or buildings in <br /> the progressive development of Specific Plan I, Specific Plan II, and Specific Plan 11I, the <br /> MHCSD would always have adequate wastewater treatment capacity. Therefore, adequate <br /> wastewater treatment capacity would be provided to serve the proposed project, and a less- <br /> than-significant impact would occur. <br /> 4-84 <br />
