Temporary wastewater storage ponds were located on the project <br /> site when wastewater was treated and used to irrigate fields. However,this type <br /> +r: of irrigation no longer occurs and all wastewater is disposed after treatment to <br /> j Old River, per a permit from the Regional Water Quality Control Board <br /> (RWQCB). The 60-kilovolt PG&E Weber-Herdlyn electrical line,which extends <br /> from Weber Point in Stockton to the Herdlyn substation, used to pass through the <br /> northern part of the project site parallel to Old River, but the line has been <br /> relocated along Byron Road. <br /> Existing land uses surrounding the Neighborhoods K and L project site consist of <br /> the following: <br /> North of Neighborhoods K and L: Old River forms the northern boundary of <br /> { ! Neighborhoods K and L. Agricultural fields are located to the north of the <br /> river and have access from Finck Road. To the northwest of Neighborhoods <br /> Kan d L, in Contra Costa County, lands are in agricultural grain crop <br /> production. The Byron Airport is located approximately 4 miles northwest of <br /> the project site. <br /> • East of Neighborhood L: A wastewater treatment plant that is to serve all of <br /> Mountain House is located in the Old River Industrial Park near the <br /> southeast corner of Neighborhood L. The remainder of the industrial park is <br /> undeveloped. <br /> (917111) 5-121 <br />
