EXISTING WQCF TRAFFIC GENERATION <br /> Traffic generated by the WQCF is primarily from employee and delivery vehicle trips,trips related to ongoing <br /> construction at the facility,the hauling of grit and screenings to the Forward Landfill, and trash removal to the <br /> Forward Landfill. Biosolids generated by the WQCF treatment process are also periodically hauled to the <br /> Forward Landfill. Currently,WQCF operations generate approximately 50 one-way trips per day, including <br /> 20 employee vehicle round trips (40 one-way trips) and five miscellaneous round trips(10 one-way trips)per day <br /> (Richard,pers. comm.,2006a). <br /> The WQCF generates approximately 156 cubic yards of grit and screenings per year, and approximately <br /> 548 cubic yards of Biosolids per year(Shannon,pers. comm., 2006). Grit, screenings, and biosolids disposal <br /> requires approximately 59 annual truck trips, assuming 12 cubic yards per truckload and trash removal from the <br /> WQCF once per week. <br /> As shown in Table 4.11-2,traffic volumes on Airport Way north of SR 120(and to the east of the WQCF) are <br /> approximately 11,975 vehicles per day. Traffic volumes north of the WQCF on Yosemite Avenue are <br /> approximately 11,200 vehicles per day. WQCF operations contribute approximately 0.4%of existing traffic <br /> volumes on Airport Way and approximately 0.4%of traffic volumes on Yosemite Avenue. <br /> REGULATORY SETTING <br /> Federal Plans, Policies, Regulations, and Laws <br /> No federal plans,policies,regulations, or laws are applicable to the proposed project. <br /> State Plans, Policies, Regulations, and Laws <br /> No state plans,policies,regulations, or laws are applicable to the proposed project. <br /> Regional and Local Plans, Policies, Regulations, and Ordinances <br /> San Joaquin County Regional Transportation Plan <br /> San Joaquin County,through the San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG),periodically updates the <br /> Regional Transportation Plan,which outlines countywide transportation expenditures based on funding from <br /> sources like the federal government,the State of California, and locally collected funds. The current SJCOG <br /> Regional Transportation Plan(2004)contains several proposed improvements that would benefit the regional <br /> roadway network in the project region. The Draft 2007 Regional Transportation Plan (SJCOG 2007)contains <br /> several proposed improvements that would benefit the regional roadway network and the project area. These <br /> improvements include reconstructing the SR 120 and Airport Way interchange, and widening Airport Way from <br /> four to six lanes between SR 120 and Lathrop Road. <br /> Regional Transportation Impact Fee <br /> In the spring of 2006 all local governments in San Joaquin County and SJCOG approved a regional transportation <br /> impact fee on new development. These funds,which will be collected through the life of the Draft 2007 Regional <br /> Transportation Plan (SJCOG 2007), are targeted to key regional highway and roadway improvements and <br /> regionally significant transit improvements. <br /> Manteca WQCF and Collection System Master Plans EIR EDAW <br /> City of Manteca 4-11.5 Transportation and Circulation <br />
