Appendices SEIR No. 339 City of Anaheim Appendix E Public Services Correspondence ---PAGE BREAK--- Appendices The Planning Center August 2010 This page left blank intentionally. ---PAGE BREAK--- The Platinum Triangle Subsequent EIR No. 339 City of Anaheim Electric Utility 1. Will the Anaheim Public Utilities be able to provide electrical service to the proposed project given the current level of facilities and supply? If not, please indicate what improvement will be required to service the project. Upgrades to the existing facilities will be required to accommodate project generated utility demands. Additional distribution circuits, transmission lines and one electrical substation will be required to serve the ultimate project. Distribution and transmission systems will be installed to coincide with street improvements, or as needed by a development, whichever comes first. The substation will be installed when project electrical loads exceed the existing electrical capacity in the project area by 20 megawatts. 2. Please provide consumption factors for residential, commercial and recreational land uses. How much electricity will be required to serve the proposed project? We are unable to determine kWh consumption for these specific residential or commercial units without additional information. Consumption factors for the City are estimated to be approximately 590,000 megawatt hours for residential use and 630,000 megawatt hours for commercial/office use. 3. Please describe the electrical facilities that are currently present in the project vicinity. Is there existing service to the project site? What new facilities will be required to provide electrical service to the project site? There are existing 12kV systems in the area. There is service to the project site, but it is not adequate for the proposed electrical load. The electric utility will construct a new substation, transmission lines and distribution circuits to provide service to the site. 4. What impact will the proposed project, in combination with all the other development projects in the area, have on Anaheim’s ability to provide electrical service? The electric utility will provide service to the entire Platinum Triangle project. The impact will include, but may not be limited to, increasing conductor sizes, locating the conductors underground, installing new high and low voltage conductors and installing new voltage transformation facilities. All installations will be located in City streets and right-of-ways or on customer provided easements. However, these impacts are not considered significant and are within the expansion capabilities of the existing service. The electric utility owns land in the Platinum Triangle. This land will be used for the future electrical substation. 5. What mitigation measures, if any, would you recommend for the proposed project? ---PAGE BREAK--- The owner or developer shall submit plans showing that each structure will comply with the State Energy Efficiency Standards for Nonresidential Buildings (Title 24, Part 6, Article 2, California Code of Regulations) and will consult with the City of Anaheim Public Utilities Department Business and Community Programs Division in order to review above Title 24 measures prior to each final Building and Zoning inspection to incorporate into the project design energy and water efficiency and sustainability practices. This consultation shall take place during project design to incorporate into the project design energy and water efficiencies and allow potential systems alternatives such as thermal energy storage air-conditioning, lighting, building envelope options and green building strategies. In order to conserve energy, the owner or developer shall implement energy and water-saving practices in compliance with Title 24, which may include the following:
High-efficiency air-conditioning with EMS (computer) control
Variable air volume (VAV) distribution
Outside air (100%) economizer cycle
Staged compressors or variable speed drives to flow varying thermal loads
Isolated HVAC zone control by floors/separable activity areas
Specification of premium-efficiency electric motors compressor motors, air-handling units, and fan-coil units)
Use of occupancy sensors in appropriate spaces
Use of compact fluorescent lamps
Use of cold cathode fluorescent lamps
Use of Energy Star® exit lighting or exit signage
Use of T-8 lamps and electronic ballasts where applications of standard fluorescent fixtures are identified
Use of lighting power controllers in association with metal-halide or high- pressure sodium (high intensity discharge) lamps for outdoor lighting and parking lots.
Consideration of thermal energy storage air-conditioning for spaces or facilities that may require air-conditioning during summer, day-peak periods.
Consideration for participation in Advantage Services Programs such as o New construction design review, in which the City cost-shares engineering for up to $10,000 for design of energy efficient buildings and systems o New Construction – cash incentives ($300 to $400 per kW reduction in load) for efficiency that exceeds Title 24 requirements o Green Building Program – offers accelerated plan approval, financial incentives, waived plan check fees and free technical assistance.
Use of High Efficiency toilets (1.28 gpf or less)
Use of zero to low water use urinals (0.0 gpf to 0.25 gpf)
Use of weather-based irrigation controllers for outdoor irrigation
Use of drought tolerant and native plants in outdoor landscaping For any buildings requiring an electrical service, the owner or developer shall install an underground electrical service from the Public Utilities distribution system. The underground service will be installed in accordance with the Electric Rules, Rates, ---PAGE BREAK--- Regulations and Electrical Specifications of Underground Systems. Electrical service fees and other applicable fees will be assessed in accordance with the Electric Rules, Rates, Regulations or the Community Facilities District. 6 Please add any comments you may wish to make regarding this project. None ---PAGE BREAK--- Average consumption rate are the following: residential: 49 therms per 30 days Commercial/ Industrial: depends on type of industry. With the proposed change in General Plan Land Use, the increase in use will not affect gas distribution in the area. We have existing natural gas distribution facilities within the proposed area. New distribution lines will be required to fir new facilities. ---PAGE BREAK--- No impact anticipated. ---PAGE BREAK--- Page 1 of 3 Subsequent Environmental Impact Report No. 334 for the City of Anaheim Library Questionnaire 1. What public library(s) would serve the proposed project site? The Anaheim Public Library system will serve the proposed project site. The closest physical library facility to the proposed increase in development entities in the Platinum Triangle is the Sunkist Branch at 901 S. Sunkist, Anaheim, CA 92806. Another facility to serve this area is in the construction phase. This will be a joint use facility with the Anaheim City School District slated for 2135 S. Mountain View Avenue, Anaheim, CA 92802, that will function as a school library during the day and a public library during evenings and weekends. The expansion of the Platinum Triangle from the original plan of 9,500 units to approximately 19,937 units will also necessitate the consideration of physical library service space within the project area. Space for library facilities is determined by per capita. The projected occupancy per dwelling is 1.5. This figure multiplied by the proposed 19,937 units equates to an approximate population of 30,000. Based on the East Anaheim Library model, a 30,000 population size requires the building of physical space for library services of approximately 10,000 square feet. The population in this project site will also have access to virtual Anaheim Library services through the network at the Central Library, 500 W. Broadway, Anaheim, CA 92805. These services include Internet based library catalog, book reserves, and full text printable/downloadable databases including Business and Company Resource Center, Health & Wellness Resources, magazines, local and national newspapers and practices tests for school, jobs and military. Live on-line reference service from a librarian is available from the library’s website 24/7. 2. Is the existing amount of library space and number of volumes of books considered adequate for the existing population within the affected library service area? If not, what is the estimated deficit of space and/or volumes? The quality and adequacy of services are measured on a per capita basis. A growth in population reduces the overall availability per capita, of books, media, computers, and space. Given the proposed increase in population, the Library Division may need to propose a physical service space within the project area. The Public Library Facilities Plan for the East Santa Ana Canyon adopted by City Council on June 13, 1989, Resolution No. 89R-235, is the model that was used to devise the initial Platinum Triangle fees. In that Public Library Facilities plan a population of approximately 30,000 triggered the need for a physical service space. At the present time the Library provides a total of 139,500 square feet of Library space in various sized facilities throughout Anaheim to serve 345,556 citizens. An additional population of approximately 30,000 based on 1.5 residents in 19,973 units would warrant a 10,000 square foot facility. The current library fee established for the Platinum Triangle does not include the cost of land. Therefore, a new developer fee will need to be devised. Electronic resources are also impacted by population growth as the licensing fees for these databases, resources, etc. is generally linked to the population of the library’s service area, the City of Anaheim. Increases in population increase the licensing costs of electronic resources and reduce the per capita availability of virtual as well as physical collections, computers, programs, and space. In order to maintain current per capita levels and licensing agreements, additional physical and virtual resources need to be added to the Anaheim Public Library system. ---PAGE BREAK--- Page 2 of 3 Subsequent Environmental Impact Report No. 334 for the City of Anaheim Library Questionnaire 3. What factors are used to determine the amount of library space and number of volumes to serve a given population? Factors determining the service levels of a public library include: 1) Total population; 2) Children – not school age; 3) Student population; 4) Language of households; 5) Income level of households; and 6) Educational level of households. Comparative data for service adequacy is available through the Public Library Data Service statistical reports. Library service indicators are: Factor National Library Norms (HALPR’s index) Anaheim Library System – Sunkist Branch Square Feet per capita .3-.5 Sq. Ft. .2 Sq. Ft. Volumes per square feet owned per capita 4.0-6.2 volumes 4.5 volumes Circulation per capita 4.5 4.04 Electronic Resource Use per capita .9 1.1 Information Assistance per capita 1.1 .79 Based on the Public Library Facilities Plan for the East Santa Ana Canyon (East Anaheim), the general schedule for development of the Public Library Facilities was as follows: When the population in the Area of Benefit reaches 15,000 the Library Division will begin expending funds to accumulate books, educational resources, and computers. When the population in the Area of Benefit reaches 23,000, an architect will be hired and the building process will begin. Based on this model we would propose that the Platinum Triangle project follow the same schedule to plan library space and services for a population of 30,000. 4. What impact would development of the proposed project have on existing and planned library facilities? Additional funds to support increased demand for library services are required to maintain the current level of community support. Initially, service will be provided by the Sunkist Branch Library which will require additional materials and computers. As the population intensifies and usage expands, space in the immediate area will be identified for focused service to the residents. The projected demographics for the new residential population in the Platinum Triangle area indicate a computer literate user base who will most likely utilize remote/virtual resources and delivery/pickup of physical collection items. ---PAGE BREAK--- Page 3 of 3 Subsequent Environmental Impact Report No. 334 for the City of Anaheim Library Questionnaire 5. What measures are required or recommended to reduce or offset the impacts of this project or the cumulative impacts of this project and other anticipated growth? Population growth associated with new residential development results in an increased demand for library services and facilities that negatively impacts the quality and quantity of library resources per capita. Developer fees are assessed to allow a community to establish a financing mechanism to help to offset the increased service needs that occur when new housing units are built. The Anaheim City Council approved a developer fee for new residential units for the Platinum Triangle in November 2004. In the original plan we were of the understanding that the dwelling type was predominately apartments. We have become aware that there are also condominium/townhome dwellings planned for the area which has the potential for increasing occupancy per dwelling over the 1.5 originally projected. As a result the Platinum Triangle Developer Fees may need to be reassessed to include land costs and also to differentiate between dwelling types. This fee will be reviewed annually and fee adjustments based upon the inflation/deflation costs for library construction, land, library materials, computers and FF&E will be subject to review and approval of the City Council. 6. Please add any other comments you may wish to make regarding this project. The expansion of the Platinum Triangle from a project 9,500 units to 19,500 units has a marked impact on the requirements for maintaining current service levels throughout the City and consequences for diminished per capita resources if a library impact fee is not assessed for this large scale development. Response Prepared By: Carol Stone City Librarian Name Title City of Anaheim, Community Services Department, Library Division 1/09/09 Agency Date ---PAGE BREAK--- 1. Please indicate the existing parks and recreation facilities in the project vicinity. The facilities outlined in the original EIR have not changed. 2. Assess the impact the proposed project will make on existing parks and recreation facilities. The existing parks are already impacted with overuse. An additional 30,000 residents (including alternative 1 and 2) will exasperate this situation. The result is scheduled recreational facilities exceeding capacity causing heightened wear and tear on the facilities. All of the recreational facilities in the area are already utilized to capacity and users who want to join a sports group or reserve fields for a Sunday afternoon family picnic are already being turned away. The new residents will have little opportunity to enjoy the reservable recreational facilities (such as ball fields, picnic shelters, volleyball and basketball courts) unless they are willing to make a reservation months in advance. This added demand will cause the recreational facilities to be reserved above capacity without resting the fields or allowing adequate time for renovation and repair. The additional population will likely cause an increase in graffiti, vandalism, and wear and tear. But the landscape will suffer the most. The turfed ball fields cannot be maintained at the level expected by the City of Anaheim due to the over programming that will result from the added residents and added requests for reservations. The turf and landscaped area in the valuable open space will also suffer greatly due to the increased traffic and no time for maintenance when the public is not using the facilities. 3. Are the existing parks and recreational facilities able to accommodate the proposed project? If not, what additional facilities would be needed? No, the existing parks and recreational facilities able not to accommodate the proposed project Parkland calculation 16,548 DU + 1975 DU for alternate 1 + 1450 DU for Alternate 2 = 19,973 DU 1.5 residents per DU = 29,959.5 residents 2 acres of parkland per capita is the city standard. = 60 acres Another 60 acres of parkland are required to meet the needs of the new residents to the area. Please update the impact analysis to reflect these new levels. Some developers will provide pocket parks that will alleviate some of this demand. However, these are not expected to exceed 10 acres combined and these parks will be less than one acres and sometimes less than half an acre and will not contain active recreational amenities such as ball fields. The proposed Platinum Triangle Park at 7.1 acres will still leave a deficit of approximately 43 acres. 4. What impacts will the proposed project, in combination with all the other development projects in the area have on your ability to provide parks and recreation facilities in the project area? The proposed project will bring in residents and users that will exceed the capacity of the parks system. The City of Anaheim will not be able to provide parks or recreational facilities to meet this demand. The City of Anaheim will not be able to maintain the existing parks and recreational facilities with the additional use. 5. Mitigation measures? unknown 6. Other Comments? None ---PAGE BREAK--- Attachment B Police Questionnaire Page 1 of 2 1. Please indicate which police station would serve the proposed project, the station's location, distance to the project site, and staffing. The nearest police facility to the project area is the “Main Station”, located at 425 S. Harbor Boulevard, approximately 3.5 miles away. Most police operations take place at this facility including investigative and detective functions. The “South Station” is located at 1520 S. Disneyland Drive, approximately 3.6 miles away. This location is designed to service the surrounding resort district, including investigative and detective operations. The “West Station” is located at 320 S. Beach Boulevard, approximately 9.8 miles away from the project area. Police services will share this location with a community center. The “East Station” is located at 8201 E. Santa Ana Canyon Road, approximately 12.6 miles away. There are currently no follow-up investigative or detective services operating from this facility. The Police Heliport, housing the Department’s three helicopters is located at the Fullerton Municipal Airport, 4011 W. Commonwealth Ave., Fullerton, approximately 7.8 miles from the project area. The Anaheim Police Department is currently authorized for 400 officers who are assigned to all of the above locations. All of the stations would provide staff and resources to the project site as needed. 2. What is the response time to the project site? What is the department’s standard for desired response time for emergency and non-emergency calls? Response times for the specific project area are not available. Our current goal for desired response times is as follows (in minutes): Priority 1 7:00 Priority 2 10:00 Priority 3 30:00 2. Given the existing level of staffing and equipment, will the police department be able to provide police services to the proposed project? If not, please indicate what will be required to serve the project. Yes, however the proposed project will reduce service to other areas of the city. ---PAGE BREAK--- Attachment B Police Questionnaire Page 2 of 2 4. What impact will the proposed project, in combination with all the other projects planned in the area, have on the ability of the police department to provide police services in the area? It is estimated that this proposed density increase would generate, on average, in excess of 36,216 calls for service per year. This, in combination with the other proposed development projects in the area for which we already project a considerable increase in calls for service, will reduce or delay our delivery of service throughout the city. Based on a Public Safety Impact Study prepared by Revenue & Cost Specialists, LLC for the Police Department, the calls generated by this intensification alone would require an increase in staffing of 108.5 officers, 56.7 full-time and 25.9 part-time civilian support personnel if we are to maintain our current levels of service. A staffing increase of that size would necessitate the acquisition of at least 43,189 square feet of additional facility space, 48 new vehicles, and at least $554,218 in assigned equipment. 5. What mitigation measures, if any, would you recommend for the proposed project? Please refer to the Commercial and Residential: Multiple-Family sections of our Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design Guidelines at the following web address: http://www.anaheim.net/com_dev/ed/police_services/CrimePreventionGuidelines%20.pdf 6. Please add any comments you may wish to make regarding this matter. Maintaining our current high level of service will be a tremendous challenge for the Police Department if these proposed increases are approved. Response Prepared By: Officer Minh Nguyen Police Officer Name Title Anaheim Police Department January 13, 2009 Agency Date ---PAGE BREAK--- PLATINUM TRIANGLE SCHOOL QUESTIONNAIRE JANUARY 9, 2009 1. Please list the names and locations of the elementary middle and high school campuses that would serve the proposed development, their approximate distance to the project site, and the level of service at which they are presently operating (student capacity compared to current enrollment). The Platinum Triangle is currently within the boundaries of Paul Revere School. However, the District can not say at this time where students will ultimately attend elementary school once the Platinum Triangle builds out. On a district-wide level, the Anaheim City School District (District) continues to be overcrowded. California Basic Educational Data System (CBEDS) for the District in school year 2008-09 was 19,263. The District’s capacity of approximately 21,000 includes 200 portable classrooms, which were intended to be an interim housing solution and will eventually need to be replaced. Without portable classrooms the District’s capacity is approximately 16,000. 2. Are there any existing shortages in the amount of classroom, athletic, recreational or other facilities available to serve the current number of students? In addition to the District-wide capacity issues discussed above portable classrooms are placed on hard court and playground space originally intended for student recreation. Therefore, the District has an acute shortage of recreational facilities. 3. Please indicate your student generation rates and project the number of elementary school, middle school, and high school students that will be generated by the proposed project. The District, as part of a Platinum Triangle master plan currently being finalized, asked its demographic consultant to look at current student generation rates for residential projects in Southern California that might be similar to the type of residential development that may occur in the Platinum Triangle in terms of cost, scale, first occupancy, and unit structure. The elementary school (K-6) student generation rate based on this study is 0.011, which would result in a total of 208 students based on the proposed density. However, as ---PAGE BREAK--- the student generation rate study itself acknowledges, this data is very new and unreliable for a number of reasons. Therefore, the District considers this number an absolute minimum of students which may be generated and is planning for a far greater number of students. For legal purposes, the District continues to use the student generation rate of 0.3609 calculated for the District’s Fee Justification Report for Residential and Commercial/Industrial Development (Report). This student generation rate would result in a total of 6,824 students based on the proposed density. 4. What school impact fees, if any, do you currently charge? The District is currently authorized to collect 50 percent of the current maximum developer fee of $2.97 per square foot for residential development and $0.47 per square foot for commercial/industrial development. 5. Will the proposed project create a need for the expansion of or changes in staffing or facilities, including classrooms, athletic equipment, athletic fields, library space, pools or other educational or recreational facilities? Would this project necessitate an adjustment to existing attendance area boundaries? If so, please give a brief description. Given the overcrowded conditions in the District, the students generated from the Platinum Triangle will require the expansion and/or construction of school facilities, as well as all of the associated ancillary facilities. An attendance boundary change will likely be necessary at some future date. 6. What problem, if any, do you foresee in providing adequate educational, athletic and recreational services and facilities to the project site? What cumulative impacts to the adequacy of school services and facilities do you anticipate as a result of the combined growth for this project and other projects in the same attendance areas? As stated above, the cumulative impacts of the Platinum Triangle on the district will be significant, as the District is already overcrowded and extremely limited in adequate recreational space for its students. An additional consideration if a school facility is not constructed in the Platinum Triangle is that of bussing. There are no existing campuses within walking distance of the Platinum Triangle. Therefore, the District will be forced to bus students from the Platinum Triangle to other schools in the District. Beside being a ---PAGE BREAK--- tremendous cost burden on the District, this bussing will have impacts on traffic in the Platinum Triangle and will contradict the City’s goal of a walkable community. 7. Additional comments: The District understands the legal constraints placed on the CEQA process by SB 50 and the payment of developer fees. However, the District still believes that, as a matter of policy, the City can recognize the importance and potential value of a Platinum Triangle School, not only to house future students, but to act as a resource for the Platinum Triangle community. We are in the process of completing a Master Plan specifically addressing school facility concepts to serve the Platinum Triangle and will share this plan with the City as soon as it is completed. We would very much like to work with the City and do our part to make the Platinum Triangle a model community for all of its future residents. ---PAGE BREAK--- The Gene Autry Experience EIR Solid Waste Questionnaire Page 1 of 2 1. Who provides solid waste landfill capacity to the City of Anaheim? Orange County Integrated Waste Management Department. 2. What are the disposal sites that are used for solid waste in the City, and what are the life expectancies of these sites? What is the rate of disposal to these sites? Please provide a list with the address and life expectancy of each site. Olinda-Alpha Landfill located at 1942 North Valencia Avenue, Brea, Ca 92823. The landfill is a 565-acre site with 420 acres of permitted area of disposal. It is scheduled to close in 2013. Daily capacity is 8,000 tons per day. Current average is 6,800 tons per day. 3. What additional sites are planned for solid waste disposal in the future? The IWMD is planning for the future expansion of the Olinda-Alpha Landfill until 2021. The Final EIR for this project was recommended for adequacy by the OC Planning Commission on November 17, 2004. Certification of the FEIR and approval of the project by the OC Board of Supervisors is anticipated to occur in Spring 2007. 4. What generation rates are used to estimate solid waste service requirements for various land uses (residential, commercial, industrial) in lbs/day or tons/year? Per Mr. John Arnau, see attached summary from California Integrated Waste Management Board Website (http://www.ciwmb.ca.gov/wastechar/). See generation rates by category, #16) (1lb per 100 sq ft per day.) 5. Do any solid waste service deficiencies currently exist in the project area? Are existing solid waste disposal sites considered adequate to service the project area? No deficiencies currently exist. Therefore, solid waste disposal sites are considered adequate to serve the site. ---PAGE BREAK--- The Gene Autry Experience EIR Solid Waste Questionnaire Page 2 of 2 6. Could solid waste services be provided to serve future growth in accordance with the project buildout without significantly impacting existing solid waste services? Yes, The IWMD is planning to expand the Olinda-Alpha landfill and plans to have sufficient capacity to accommodate future growth in the City of Anaheim. 7. Please describe what recycling measures, if any, are currently taken by local residents and businesses. Provided by the City of Anaheim 8. Is the County currently meeting AB 939 goals? Yes- 15 years of countywide capacity. 9. What is the rate of disposal for the landfill serving the project area? Average daily disposal is 6,800 tons per day. 10. What is the current capacity of these disposal sites? Estimated remaining is 34 million cubic yards as of June 30, 2006, 11. How will future growth in accordance with the project buildout affect the capacity of these landfills? The IWMD can accommodate the project, both specifically and cumulatively.

What water service district(s) boundaries is the City located in? Who provides water service to the City? The proposed project is located within the City of Anaheim Public Utilities Department water service area. The City obtains its water from its wells in the Orange County groundwater basin and from imported water purchases from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD). There are few pockets of small areas within the City limits that are served by other agencies, and areas outside the City limits that are served by the City. In addition, the City maintains a number of interconnections with adjacent water purveyors. 2. Does the District have an adopted Urban Water Management Plan? Yes. The City’s Urban Water Management Plan was updated and adopted in 2005. 3. Are there currently any deficiencies in the water system in the project area? No. The City’s water distribution system is currently adequate in the project area. 4. From what sources does the District obtain its water supply and in what quantities? The City’s obtains its water from its wells in the Orange County groundwater basin, managed by the Orange County Water District (OCWD), and from imported water purchases from MWD. The water supply breakdown from these sources is presented in Table 1. 5. What is the size and location of existing water mains serving the City? What new water lines, if any, are necessary or proposed? The location and size of the City’s major water mains are shown on Figure 1. The locations of proposed and existing mains near the project area are shown on Figures 2a and 3, respectively. ---PAGE BREAK--- Attachment B Water Questionnaire Page 2 of 3 P:\COA-51.0E\Service Service Letters!\water\Waterquestionnaire_plat tri EIR_339_011209_FINAL.docP:\COA-51.0E\Service Service Letters!\water\Waterquestionnaire_plat tri EIR_339_011209_FINAL.doc 6. What are the average water consumption rates for all land uses within the City? The City uses the following water consumption factors, listed in units of gallons per day (gpd), for conducting network (hydraulic) analysis of its water system: Land Use Classification Average Water Demand Hillside Residential Estate 800 gpd/unit Low Density Residential (Single Family) 600 gpd/unit Low-Medium Density Residential 450 gpd/unit Medium Density Residential (Multi- Family) 300 gallons/unit Commercial Recreational (Hotels/Motels) 180 gpd/room General Commercial 4,000 gallons/day/acre Retail Sales and Service 2,000 gpd/acre Industrial/Manufacturing 3,000 gpd/acre Parks/Landscaped Areas 3,500 gallons/acre Note: The above water consumption factors are provided in our Administrative Procedures and Design Guidelines for localized water system analysis. The guidelines are intended to provide customers with general understanding of our water application approval process and design criteria for new water mains and services. They should be used in conjunction with the Department’s Water Rates, Rules, and Regulations, and Water Services Standard Specifications. The above documents can be found on the Utilities website at the following: http://www.anaheim.net/article.asp?id=1101 7. Will any new facilities, such as sizing requirements or new lines, be required to serve future development in accordance with buildout of the project? Yes. Additional facilities to serve future development in accordance with build out of the project will be required. In addition to the proposed mains shown in Figure 2a and the proposed well in Platinum Triangle (Well S-3 on attached Figure 2a), the following improvements will be required: a new transmission main in Orangewood Avenue from State College Boulevard to the 57 Freeway; a new transmission main in Douglas Avenue from Katella to the Anaheim Stadium loop; a new transmission main in State College Boulevard from Orangewood south to the City limits; a new transmission main in the Lewis Street Connector; and one new 3,000 gallon per minute (GPM) water well, at a location to be determined within the Platinum Triangle. ---PAGE BREAK--- Attachment B Water Questionnaire Page 3 of 3 P:\COA-51.0E\Service Service Letters!\water\Waterquestionnaire_plat tri EIR_339_011209_FINAL.docP:\COA-51.0E\Service Service Letters!\water\Waterquestionnaire_plat tri EIR_339_011209_FINAL.doc 8. Please provide the location of all water wells near the project site and estimates of the amount of water they pump on a or yearly basis. Also please provide available information on whether groundwater usage has increased or decreased in recent years. The City’s water wells are shown in Figure 1, and annual groundwater production totals are presented in Table 1. Overall groundwater usage followed a decreasing trend from 2003 to 2006, as indicated in this table. Although the City’s total water demand stayed relatively constant, groundwater production decreased primarily due to the following factors: reduction in the Basin Pumping Percentage by OCWD following Fiscal Year 2002/03; and the City’s participation in MWD’s in-lieu program (i.e. in surplus years, MWD water is sold at a discounted rate, substituting for groundwater production). The table indicates an increase in groundwater production for Fiscal Years 2006/07 and 2007/08. The increase was a result of OCWD raising the Basin Pumping Percentage in those years. In addition, the year end system report, which shows the production totals from each well in FY 2007/08, is also attached. Please note that the project site is served by a number of sources, including nearby wells, nearby MWD connections, and water “dropped down” from higher pressure zones. 9.
