Exhibit 3 0 SAN LORENZO SEWER LIFT STATION ■ O ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT S.O ExECuiME SUMMARY the existing 20 -foot sewer easement and the permanent condemnation of approximately 292 s.f. of private property. The temporary construction easement would encompass an area consisting of the first five (5) feet westerly of the existing wall and the first ten (10) feet northerly of the existing wall (refer to Section 2.4.3 for a detailed description of the temporary construction easement). Additionally, the City of Santa Ana would need to acquire permanent title to approximately 292 square feet of private property, which is owned by Santa Ana California Lodge, LLC (Studio Inn, APN 410 - 411 -19). This property would be acquired by the City in any manner authorized by law, which in proper circumstances could potentially include adoption of a resolution of necessity by the Santa Ana City Council. Around the new lieft station, landscaping and hardscape improvements are proposed. The Project includes the repaving of a portion of the western end of San Lorenzo Avenue, portions of an existing alley, and a portion of West Segerstrom Avenue, along with the installation of new sidewalks in areas where existing sidewalks have fallen into a state of disrepair and /or would be demolished during lift station construction. An existing wall separating the proposed lift station site from an existing, adjacent motel (Studio Inn) would be removed and replaced with a new, six -foot tall, tan - colored block wall. Some existing landscaping along West Segerstrom Avenue would remain. New landscaping would be installed in a triangular area located between the proposed lift station building and the sidewalk along West Segerstrom Avenue, and would include the planting of one 24 -inch box tree (Brisbane Box), along with shrubs and groundcover (Silverberry and Autumn Sage). Hardscape improvements adjacent to the new lift station would include the installation of new sidewalk, curb, and gutter. The Project also proposes the installation and operation of approximately 1,300 linear feet of new underground sewer infrastructure, including approximately 560 linear feet of 15 -inch gravity sewer pipe; approximately 190 linear feet of 12 -inch gravity sewer pipe; approximately 545 linear feet of 10 -inch force main; and sewer manholes and appurtenances. Construction of these new facilities would occur beneath the paved rights -of -ways of South Bristol Street and West Segerstrom Avenue. The new infrastructure would be needed to connect several existing sewer mains to the new proposed San Lorenzo Lift Station. After construction of the San Lorenzo Lift Station is complete and the new subsurface sewer pipes and manholes are installed, the new lift station would move effluent through the station and into gravity sewer lines, which would convey the sewerage to an existing Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) treatment facility. Effluent would continuously flow through the San Lorenzo Lift Station and would not be stagnant. The new lift station would replace the Segerstrom Lift Station and would not increase the capacity of the City's existing sewer system. The new lift station facility would be constructed with odor control devices and the City would regularly monitor the facility to ensure it is functioning properly. After the new San Lorenzo Lift Station has been constructed and is in operation, demolition of the existing Segerstrom Lift Station would occur. Demolition activities would involve abandonment in place of the existing lift station, including the removal and disposal of all lift station equipment and filling of the existing wet well manhole with sand. An existing generator, located southerly of the existing lift station, would remain in place and would serve as a back -up power source for the proposed new San Lorenzo Lift Station. Finally, some removal and replacement of existing sidewalk and roadway pavement would occur in association with proposed demolition activities, including the removal /replacement of an existing 80 -foot long by 12 -foot wide bus pad located immediately south of the existing Segerstrom Lift Station facility. Demolition of the existing Segerstrom Lift Station would occur in conformance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations and standards. Lastly, resurfacing of roadway segments disturbed by Project construction would occur. PAGE S -4 55A -104
