City of Santa Ana <br />California Environmental Quality Act <br />Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration <br />b) The proposed Project will incorporate native, predominantly drought -tolerant landscaping, allowing <br />the plants to thrive during both normal and dry years. Therefore, the impacts are anticipated to be <br />less than significant with mitigation measure UTIL-1 incorporated. <br />c) The Project does not include facilities or activities that would generate wastewater. Therefore, no <br />impacts are anticipated. <br />d) During construction, some debris may be generated. However, the amount of waste is expected to <br />be minimal and should not exceed the capacity of local infrastructure or interfere with the <br />achievement of solid waste reduction goals. Therefore, impacts to local infrastructure and solid <br />waste reduction goals are anticipated to be less than significant. <br />e) Waste disposal BMPs will be implemented to reduce, manage, and properly dispose of waste <br />generated during construction and operation. These practices include waste segregation, recycling, <br />hazardous waste management, and minimizing waste generation, ensuring that materials are <br />disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner while complying with all applicable federal, <br />state, and local regulations. Waste disposal will adhere to all relevant regulatory requirements. <br />Therefore, no significant impacts are anticipated. <br />Mitigation Measures: <br />UTIL-1 - As part of the proposed improvements, the Project includes the relocation of an existing City - <br />owned 8-inch water main. This relocation is required to accommodate infrastructure upgrades and may <br />result in temporary disruptions to water service for nearby customers. To minimize potential impacts, <br />affected customers will be notified in advance of any planned service interruptions, including information <br />regarding timing and duration. <br />In addition, Project specifications will require the construction contractor to contact Underground Service <br />Alert (DigAlert) by calling 811 or 1-800-422-4133 at least two business days prior to an excavation work. <br />DigAlert will coordinate with utility owners in the area to identify and mark the locations of all buried <br />utility -owned lines within the project area to avoid accidental utility damage and ensure public safety. <br />-49CWE7 <br />- <br />
