T-mobile Site CA-3001D/NW Stockton Site Plan Review/San Joaquin County Because the wireless facility will be unstaffed, there will be no regular hours of operation and no impact to existing local traffic patterns. No water or sanitation services will be required. T-Mobile will comply with all FCC rules governing construction requirements, technical standards, interference protection, power and height limitations and radio frequency standards. In addition, T-Mobile will comply with all FAA and CPUC rules on site location and operation. Environmental Impacts: The T-Mobile facility will result in no significant impacts to the environment or to the area in which it is located. The facility produces no noise, smoke or odors. Construction will result in minimal modifications and disturbance to the building. The proposed facility qualifies under CEQA, Article 9, Categorical Exemptions, Class 3: "Construction and location of limited number of new small facilities or structures; installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures; and the conversion of existing small structures from one use to another where only minor modifications are made in the exterior of the structure." (CEQA Guidelines, Section 15303). Benefits to the Community The proposed T-mobile facility will provide many benefits to City of San Joaquin residents, businesses and motorists along the City's arterial streets and local roads in the subject area. These benefits include the following: • 911 capability allowing motorists to summon aid and report dangerous situations. • Support for emergency services by providing wireless communications to paramedics, firefighters, and law enforcement agencies. • The ability to transmit data allowing for immediate access to vital information. • A backup system to the land-line system in the event of power outages, natural or man-made disasters. • Provide quality wireless communications including voice, paging, digital data capabilities for email, facsimile and internet access. • Enhance the communications systems of residents who telecommute from their homes. In summary, the new T-Mobile/Nextel facility will improve "State of the Art" wireless telecommunication services within County of San Joaquin and become an important element of the County's infrastructure for future business and residential services.
