Soil Investigations for Data Collection in the Delta Initial Study/Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration 201 Proposed Project’s Proposed Projected demand, in addition to the provider’s existing commitments? No impact. The Proposed Project activities are minor and temporary and would not impact the service of wastewater treatment providers in the Study Area. Wastewater services for soil investigation crews would be provided by temporary portable facilities, and the Proposed Project will not require relocation or construction of new water or wastewater treatment facilities. The Proposed Project will not result in a determination by the wastewater treatment providers for inadequate capacity. d) Generate solid waste in excess of state or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local infrastructure, or otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals? No impact. Proposed Project activities are minor and the small amount of solid waste that could be generated at each Impact Area would not adversely affect the capacity of available landfills in the Proposed Project area. Based on the capacity of the landfills in the region, and the waste diversion requirements set forth by the State of California, the Proposed Project would not generate solid waste in excess of state or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local infrastructure, or otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals. e) Comply with federal, state, and local management and reduction statutes and regulations related to solid waste? No impact. All cuttings and excess drilling fluid will be contained in drums, large containers, or vacuum trucks, and disposed of offsite at an appropriate landfill. Recirculation tanks (55-gallon storage drums) will be used to settle drill cuttings from drilling fluid. Discarded soil samples will also be placed in the storage drums. Drums would be stored on site at designated staging areas outside of environmentally sensitive areas for up to 4 weeks for environmental testing prior to landfill disposal. See Hazards & Hazardous Materials section for more information. Additionally, Proposed Project activities are minor and the disposal of the small amount of solid waste that could be generated at each Impact Area would comply with federal, state, and local management and reduction statuses and regulations related to solid waste. Therefore, there would be no impact.
