Traffic is typical of that within residential subdivisions where a high school is located. <br /> Analysis as to whether or not project activities would: <br /> a. Cause an increase in traffic which is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system <br /> (i.e., result in a substantial increase in either the number of vehicle trips, the volume to capacity ratio on roads, or <br /> congestion at intersections). <br /> Impact Analysis: Drill rigs and chemical trucks will create some additional traffic in the project area. The effects of this <br /> will be limited by staring the trucks at the site as opposed to leaving all of the equipment at the work area each night. <br /> Once equipment is mobilized to an injection location and set up, most of the equipment will be stationary at the work <br /> site until injection at the location is completed, or the work day is over. The proposed injection work located on <br /> residential streets (Carrol, Coolidge, and Sinclair Avenues) may increase congestion on those streets due to <br /> equipment. However, Carrol Ave. and Coolidge Ave. terminate into the site, and the traffic is generally light on these <br /> streets, <br /> MWH is evaluating the possibility of directly piping injection solution from the northern site to the injection locations on <br /> the athletic field as apposed to transporting material on the roadways to the athletic field. <br /> Conclusion: <br /> ❑ Potentially Significant Impact <br /> ❑ Potentially Significant Unless Mitigated <br /> ® Less Than Significant Impact <br /> ❑ No Impact <br /> b. Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level of service standard established by the country congestion <br /> management agency for designated roads or highway. <br /> Impact Analysis: There will be no long term impact by the proposed injection activities. Work areas within roadways <br /> will provide passable access for vehicles when applicable. <br /> Conclusion: <br /> ❑ Potentially Significant Impact <br /> ❑ Potentially Significant Unless Mitigated <br /> ® Less Than Significant Impact <br /> ❑ No Impact <br /> c. Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections)or incompatible <br /> uses (e.g., farm equipment). <br /> Impact Analysis: There is no anticipated impact as a result of issues stated above. <br /> Conclusion: <br /> ❑ Potentially Significant Impact <br /> ❑ Potentially Significant Unless Mitigated <br /> ® Less Than Significant Impact <br /> ❑ No Impact <br /> d. Result in inadequate emergency access. <br /> Impact Analysis: No Impact is anticipated from proposed activities because road access shall be maintained in the <br /> vicinity of the work areas. <br /> Conclusion: <br /> ❑Potentially Significant Impact <br /> Page 21 of 25 <br />
