<br />EucIid Street Zone Change/Subdivision ER 2005-138 <br /> <br />Presently, there are alternative modes of transportation <br />within the project area to help reduce traffic trips <br />generated by the proposed project. The Orange County <br />Transportation Authority operates a fixed route bus service <br />when the proj ect area. Metrolink and Amtrak Train Service <br />would also be available through bus service to the Santa <br />Ana Regional Transportation Center. The proposed project <br />would not be in conflict with any City policies regarding <br />alternative modes of transportation. Nor would <br />implementation of the proposed proj ect displace any <br />existing modes of public transportation provided within the <br />project area. <br /> <br />UTILITY/SERVICE SYSTEMS <br /> <br />B. Require or result in the construction of new water or <br />wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of <br />existing facilities, the construction of which could <br />cause significant environmental effects? <br /> <br />D. Are sufficient water supplies available to serve the <br />project from existing entitlements and resources or <br />are new or expanded entitlements needed? <br /> <br />Less than Significant Impact <br /> <br />The City of Santa Ana Water Department would provide <br />domestic water service for the proposed proj ect. The City <br />of Santa Ana produces water from two sources. The Orange <br />County Groundwater Basin provides 66% of the annual water <br />supply and the Metropolitan Water District provides 34% of <br />the annual water supply. The City of Santa Ana has 19 <br />active wells with combined capacities of approximately <br />42,500 gallons per minute. The City also has seven MWD <br />connections with combined normal operating capacities of <br />20,700 gallons per minute. The total combined capacity of <br />all water production facilities is 63,200 gallons per <br />minute. According to the City's 2000 Urban Water Management <br />Plan, the projected water demand for the City in 2004 would <br />be approximately 51,000 acre feet per year. The proposed <br />proj ect is consistent with the General Plan and the water <br />demands for the proj ect are accounted for ln the City's <br />Urban Water Management. <br /> <br />To adequately <br />distribution <br /> <br />service <br />facilities <br /> <br />the proposed <br />would be <br /> <br />project <br />needed. <br /> <br />new <br />With <br /> <br />water <br />the <br /> <br />27 <br /> <br />75A-46 <br />
