Hydrology and Water Quality The EIR will describe both projects' effects on the hydrology and water quality characteristics of the project area including alteration of drainage patterns, erosion, storm water discharges, and flooding. The EIR may address provisions for additional stormwater storage facilities at the southeast corner of the NCYCCproperty. Further, the EIR will discuss potential water quality impacts associated with operation of the proposed firing range_ Land Use and Planning The EIR will describe both projects' potential effects on existing land uses. CDCR will consider relevant federal or state land use policies. However, as a State agency, CDCR is exempt from plans, policies, and regulations adopted by non-state or federal agencies. Nevertheless, the EIR will provide a discussion of relevant local plans and policies because conflicts-could potentially result in environmental impacts. E Noise The EIR will describe the construction and operational noise levels for both projects (including noise generated by the proposed firing range) and will compare these levels to applicable noise thresholds to determine whether the projects would result in a significant noise impact. The EIR will also consider noise generated by existing surrounding land uses, such as the Stockton Metropolitan Airport, and will evaluate the potential effects on the proposed facilities, staff, and inmates. Employment, Population, and Housing The EIR will evaluate both projects' effect on population and housing in the local area based on projections of project employment and distribution of the employees by place of residence_ Public Services i The EIR-will evaluate both projects' potential to create an adverse impact to schools, and will also evaluate effects on local police and fire services. Transportation/Traffic The EIR will evaluate both projects' potential impacts on regional and local transportation facilities based on a transportation analysis that will assess both construction-related impacts (heavy truck trips and construction worker trips), as well as operational impacts (employee I trips, patient transport, access, and parking). A traffic study will be prepared for both projects in consultation with the City of Stockton, San Joaquin County, Caltrans, and SJCOG. The basis of this traffic analysis will include the projected traffic volumes of existing and known future projects in the surrounding region. - _ I NGRF and DeWitt Nelson Conversion Project Revised Nofice of Preparation/Initial Study i California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation 17 August 2010 i 1 i
