· 3: 0 <br /> <br />Q. PUBLIC UTILITIES <br /> <br />I o ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS <br /> <br />The proposed project will require approximately 15.44 million kWh <br />of electricity per year. Southern California Edison Company (SCE) <br />has indicated that the electrical loads of the proposed project are <br />within the parameters of proposed load growth that the company <br />plans to meet for the area. Modifications to existing power lines <br />on Main Street may be needed to accommodate power demand. <br /> <br />The proposed project is not expected to have a significant effect <br />on service availability or capacity of natural gas service since it <br />is located in a mature urban area that is well served by gas lines <br />on all peripheral streets. Gas service to the project will be <br />provided through existing mains along peripheral streets. <br /> <br />According to the Southern California Gas Company, anticipated <br />natural gas requirements for the proposed project can be <br />accommodated with existing facilities. There are no improvements <br />planned nor are they necessary to handle projected natural gas <br />loads. No significant impacts are anticipated. <br /> <br />2 · FINDINGS <br /> <br />Even though no significant adverse impact on public utilities is <br />anticipated, the mitigation measures contained in the Mitigation <br />Monitoring Program as Mitigation Monitoring Program Numbers 144 <br />through 146 have been required in, or incorporated into, the <br />project. Substantial evidence supporting this finding is contained <br />in the record at pages 4-137 and 4-139 of the Revised Draft EIR. <br /> <br />R. COMMUNICATION SERVICES - TELEPHONE <br /> <br />ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS <br /> <br />Because Pacific Bell has nc existing facilities for serving the <br />site, implementation of the proposed project will have significant <br />impact on the existing telephone communication system. Pacific <br />Bell facilities will require major reinforcement to provide <br />adequate service to the development. <br /> <br />FINDINGS <br /> <br />The mitigation measure contained in the Mitigation Monitoring <br />Program as Mitigation Monitoring Program Number 147 has been <br />required in, or incorporated into, the project and that mitigation <br />measure mitigates or avoids the significant environmental effects <br />identified in this EIR and outlined above. Substantial evidence <br />supporting this finding is contained in the record at page 4-140 of <br />the Revised Draft EIR. <br /> <br />30 <br /> <br /> <br />
