SANTA ANA REZONE PROJECT INITIAL STUDY/MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION lighting system for the parking lot and the EV charging stalls would connect to existing electrical service and would not generate demand beyond the capacity of current utility providers. No trenching, grading, or utility upgrades are proposed that would trigger the need for expanded infrastructure or result in significant environmental effects. No upgrades to off -site electrical transmission systems or substations are proposed or anticipated. The proposed project would disturb more than 1 acre of land and would be required to prepare a SWPPP that would address stormwater drainage during construction. Therefore, the proposed project would not require or result in the relocation or construction of new or expanded water, wastewater treatment or stormwater drainage, electric power, natural gas, or telecommunications facilities. Impacts would be less than significant. b) Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project and reasonably foreseeable future development during normal, dry and multiple dry years? No impact. The proposed project includes paving of an existing overflow gravel parking lot and associated access roadway. In addition, there would be a separate publicly accessible area in the southern portion of the project site containing a solar panel shade structure above the EV charging stations and associated EV charging stalls. The proposed project would not include any uses that require water. Therefore, the proposed project would not result in a change in water demand for the project site compared to its current use. As such, no impacts would occur. c) Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project's projected demand in addition to the provider's existing commitments? No impact. The proposed project includes paving of the existing overflow gravel parking lot and associated access roadway. The proposed project does not include any uses that would generate demand for wastewater services. As such, no impacts would occur. d) Generate solid waste in excess of State or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local infrastructure, or otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals? Less than significant impact. The proposed project includes paving of an existing overflow gravel parking lot and associated access roadway. Solid waste may be produced during the construction phase of the proposed project. According to the 2021 Final Recirculated PEIR, the City is serviced by 17 landfills. The Frank R. Bowerman Sanitary landfill receives the most waste from the City and has an estimated closing year of 2053, with a maximum permitted throughput of 11,500 tons per day." The 2021 Final Recirculated PEIR determined that the buildout of the General Plan would not 77 California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle). 2025.
