The project would include the development <br />of onsi te drainage systems. However, the construction of the <br />facilities would not cause significant impacts to the <br />environment. <br /> <br />.1:" . <br /> <br />1.S fñe- þt'bjè~'C serveð. by é:I. ld.ucl!lll wILl... i:>u.IIL...L;:;.....L <br />permitted capacity to accommodate the project's solid waste <br />disposal needs? <br />Comply with federal, state and <br />regulations related to solid waste? <br /> <br />local <br /> <br />statutes <br /> <br />and <br /> <br />G. <br /> <br />Less Than Significant Impacts <br /> <br />The City of Santa Ana would provide solid waste collection <br />services to the project site. Solid waste is transported to the <br />Environmental Service transfer station in Irvine, and then taken <br />to the Bowerman Landfill. The Bowerman Landfill is permitted to <br />accept 8,500 tons per day and is anticipated to close in year <br />2024. <br /> <br />The California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (AB 939) <br />mandates all cities and counties in California to divert fifty <br />percent of solid waste generated from landfill disposal. As part <br />of the General Plan, the City of Santa Ana has prepared a Source <br />Reduction and Recycling Element, which describe how the City <br />complies with the mandates of AB 939. In order to comply with <br />the requirements of Þ~B 939, the City has implemented several <br />waste reduction programs including green waste programs, source <br />reduction programs, and recycling programs. <br /> <br />According to the California Integrated Waste Management Board, a <br />standard generation rate of 1 ton per person per year is used to <br />estimate the quantity of solid waste generated. The proposed <br />project would have a solid waste disposal demand of <br />approximately 30 tons per year or .092 tons per day. The <br />increases in solid waste would be considered minor in comparison <br />to the 81500 tons of solid waste taken to the Bowerman Landfill <br /> <br />28 <br /> <br />7S eo! 6 0 <br />
