Administrative Draft Environmental Impact Report Gill Medical Center Project 3.6.1.2 Phase 1 Water Treatment Facility (Site Plan Building B) The Water Treatment facility building would be located near the site's northern midpoint boundary. 3.6.1.3 Phase 1 Wastewater Treatment Facility (Site Plan Building C) An expandable wastewater treatment"package plant"would be constructed near the site's northern midpoint boundary. "Package plants" are pre-manufactured treatment facilities used to treat wastewater in small communities or on individual properties. 3.6.1.4 Phase 2 Medical Office Building (Site Plan Building D) The Phase 2 60,000 -SF,45-foot-high, two-story Medical Office Building would be located west of the Phase 2 Main Hospital building and north of the West Lane entrance road. 3.6.1.5 Phase 2 Hospital (Site Plan Building E) The Phase 2 Main Hospital building would be the focal point of Project buildout and Phase 2 development. The 140,000-SF, 55-foot-high, three-story hospital is in the central portion of the Phase 2 development area. 3.6.1.6 Phase 2 Helicopter Pad Helistop (Site Plan Facility F) Analysis of helistop operations is based on the Gill Medical Center Heliport Design and Operations memorandum prepared by Heliplanners (Heliplanners. 15 September 2021.) (Draft EIR Appendix B). Phase 2 improvements include a helicopter pad "helistop" located northeast of the Main Hospital building.As a "helistop," no fueling or maintenance facilities would be provided as the pad would only be used by helicopters for patient drop off or pick up. The helistop has not been fully designed at this early stage. It is expected to be ground-based, although not at grade due to proposed nearby driveways and parking areas. Vehicle (cars, ambulances, etc.) must be considered when applying the FAR Part 77 airspace obstruction-clearance criteria. A helistop at the proposed location will likely need to be elevated on a berm or on a free-standing structure sufficient to provide specified clearance above grade for vehicles. The maximum elevation would likely be ten feet and may be less, especially if the currently proposed automobile circulation could be adjusted. A berm helistop is considered ground-based and the dimensions to accommodate the design helicopter size would be 40 feet by 40 feet (or 40 feet in diameter). This represents FAA's minimum design size for a hospital helistop touchdown lift off area and is sufficient to accommodate the design helicopter size.
