Cultural Resources <br /> The project site does not contain any cultural resources listed in the NRHP or the CRHR,and although the site _ <br /> (including the off-site infrastructure areas)contains 10 known historic-era cultural resources,none of these are <br /> listed or eligible for listing in the CRHR. A portion of the site(Grant Line Village)contains 23 existing <br /> buildings/structures that may represent historic resources(i.e.,are currently 50+years of age or would be 50+ <br /> years of age at project buildout (20251)and may contain undiscovered and unrecorded subsurface cultural <br /> resources. <br /> Both the MHMP Buildout Alternative and the proposed project would disrupt the 815-acre project site,off-site <br /> infrastructure locations,and Grant Line Village;thus,both would have the potential to result in significant <br /> impacts on undiscovered and unrecorded subsurface cultural resources and/or potential historic structures. In <br /> addition,the potential to affect undiscovered and unrecorded subsurface cultural resources would be similar to <br /> that of the proposed project because this alternative would also require the development of a 30-acre interim <br /> recycled water irrigation pond and nonpotable water system on the Pombo property.[Similar] <br /> Drainage <br /> Both the MHMP Buildout Alternative and the proposed project would include development of the 815-acre <br /> project site; construction activities within the off-site infrastructure sites; grading of the project site; an increase in <br /> impervious surfaces, 100-year runoff,and runoff velocity; and an increase in demand for capacity in the existing <br /> and proposed MHCSD storm drain system.The 100-year runoff quantities for this alternative and the proposed <br /> project would be 1,249 cfs and 1,206 cfs,respectively(MacKay&Somps 2004).Both scenarios would result in — <br /> less-than-significant sedimentation/erosion and flooding/exceedance of storm drain capacity impacts,because of. <br /> • the considerable amount of existing San Joaquin County and MHCSD policies,requirements, and standards — <br /> applicable to development within the MHMP area that each of these scenarios would need to comply with and <br /> • the general consistency of each of these scenarios with the Mountain House Storntwater Master Drainage _ <br /> Plan. <br /> However,the MHMP Buildout Alternative would generate approximately 3.5%more runoff during the 100-year <br /> storm event than the proposed project and thus would generate a correspondingly greater demand for capacity in <br /> the MHCSD storm drain system than the proposed project.[Greater] <br /> Water Quality <br /> Both the MHMP Buildout Alternative and the proposed project would include grading, earth-moving activities, <br /> and excavations during construction across the 815-acre project site(with the possible exception of Grant Line — <br /> Village).Both scenarios would also include construction activities of roughly the same scale and size over the <br /> same 20-year period.Therefore,it is anticipated that this alternative and the proposed project would result in <br /> similar significant water quality impacts during construction.[Similar] _ <br /> Both the MHMP Buildout Alternative and the proposed project would convert 815 acres from primarily <br /> agricultural uses to mixed urban uses and thus would generate urban runoff that would eventually be discharged <br /> to Mountain House Creek and Old River. As indicated in Table 4.8-5 in Section 4.8,"Water Quality,"constituent <br /> loading under these two scenarios with BMPs incorporated would result in less contaminant loading for each of <br /> the constituents evaluated than is currently generated on the project site by the existing agricultural uses. <br /> Therefore,both scenarios would result in less-than-significant water quality impacts during operation. As — <br /> indicated in Table 4.8-5,constituent loading during operation would be greater under this alternative than under <br /> the proposed project.[Greater] <br /> EDAW College Park at Mountain House Spec is Plan III Draft EIR — <br /> Alternatives to the Proposed Project 5-12 San Joaquin County <br />
