4 Environmental Analysis <br /> 4.14 Public Services <br /> available for the gen-tie line route from this point. The first option would be to connect via an <br /> aboveground line from the POCO to a point on the west side of the southwestern boundary of the <br /> substation. The second option is to enter the substation on the southwestern edge by way of a <br /> belowground line as shown in Figure 2-1 of Chapter 2, Project Description. Either ROW corridor <br /> is assumed to be up to 100 feet in width. <br /> Additionally, PG&E would upgrade the Tesla Substation, and the improvements would include <br /> the installation of a grounding system, disconnect switches, surge arresters, outdoor lighting and <br /> outlets, and fiber termination for the gen-tie line. The improvements made would be within the <br /> existing Tesla Substation footprint. <br /> No additional public services would be required to make these improvements on PG&E's Tesla <br /> Substation property. Thus, these improvements would not result in substantial adverse physical <br /> impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered government facilities, <br /> including fire, police, school, park, and other facilities. Accordingly, the PG&E Tesla Substation <br /> improvements and construction of the gen-tie from the POCO to its substation would have no <br /> impact on significance criterion 4.14-1. No mitigation measures would be required. <br /> 4.14.6 Cumulative Impacts <br /> As discussed above, the Project would result in less than significant impacts with respect to the <br /> provision of new or physically altered fire or police protection facilities, and no impact with respect <br /> to the provision of new or physically altered school, park, or other public service facilities. The <br /> potential cumulative impact related to these services as a result of the Project would be less than <br /> significant. <br /> 4.14.7 References <br /> Alameda County (Alameda County Community Development Agency Planning Department). <br /> 2000.
