Parking area maintenance and sweeping shall be conducted regularly (without the use of water) to reduce the amount of pollutants entering the City drainage system. Such measures shall be funded by the applicant. Implementation of the above mitigation measures will reduce the level of storm drainage impacts to a level of insignificance. Solid Waste Demolition of existing site structures would result in a short-term increase in the amount of solid waste that would be generated on the project site. Based on solid waste generation factors provided by the City of Santa Ana Planning Department, project implementation would increase by 14,341,800 pounds per year the amount of solid waste that would be disposed of at Bee Canyon Landfill. Because the Orange County Waste Management Department has indicated that the Bee Canyon landfill lifespan is adequate to accommodate the increase in solid waste generated by the project, solid waste project impacts are not considered significant. In order to mitigate, t.he solid waste impacts of the proposed project, the following mitigafion measures have been identified in the environmental impact report to reduce short-term and long-term solid waste impacts: 1. Trash separation and recycling programs shall be encouraged on-site to decrease the amount of solid waste that would be generated by the proposed project. Prior to disposing of construction debris that would be generated by removal of existing site structure, it shall be checked to the satisfaction of the City for the presence of asbestos. If found, it should be handled and disposed of as per City and EPA requirements. Implementation of the above mitigation measures will reduce the level of solid waste impacts to a level of insignificance. Fire Protection Based on information provided by the City of Santa Aha Fire Department, construction and development of the project is expected to significantly impact the City Fire Department's ability to provide adequate fire protection service. Construction of the project would significantly impact the City Fire Department as increased demands would be placed on Fire Department structure inspectors and plan checkers. Operation of the project would increase the demands On the Fire Department through a likely increase in emergency responses. Construction and operation of the project's two high- rise buildings would create potential hazards because the Fire Department does not maintain the desired amount of high-rise equipment. In order to mitigate the fire protection impacts of the proposed project, the following mitigation measures have been identified in the environmental impact report to reduce short-term and long-term impacts: The following mitigation measures are proposed in order to reduce the magnitude of construction- related impacts to an insignificant level. The Fire Department is in the process of completing an analysis of fair share funding alterations for the purposes of providing funding for the provision of additional fire fighting equipment and personnel in order to enhance the Fire Department's ability to provide plan checkers and site inspectors, fight high-rise fires, and for the possible relocation of fire
