will contact the Underground Service Alert to notify the affected utility/energy purveyors who can place their personnel at the excavation site to assist in the location of underground facilities during the exploratory digging immediately preceding excavation. in this manner, the risk of line rupture to natural gas, petroleum, and sewer facilities, which might release hazardous substances and odors into the air, can be minimized. 18. Should any unidentified substances, odors, leaking underground tanks, or other mysterious and potentially hazardous materials be encountered during project construction, work in that area will be halted and the Santa Ana Fire Department's Hazardous Materials Team will be contacted to evaluate the materials and to define appropriate remedial measures. 19. The removal. of any underground storage tanks will be in accordance with all applicable regulations. For any service stations that will be partially acquired or displaced, the City will request that the owners remove the underground gasoline tanks prior to property acquisition. If the owners do not remove the underground tanks, the City will include the following statement in the right -of -way agreement: "It is understood that the property being acquired in this transaction may contain hazardous waste which must be removed or otherwise treated, under state or federal law, to protect the public health. If the hazardous waste is found to exist on the property, the state may exercise its right to bring an action, if necessary, to recover clean -up costs from the grantors or any others who are ultimately determined to have responsibility for the hazardous waste condition of the property." W. CONSUMPTION OF RENEWABLE AND NON- RENEWABLE RE- SOURCE5 Construction of the proposed project will involve the consumption of both renewable and non - renewable resources. The materials utilized in the construction of the widened roadway (i.e., sand, gravel, concrete, asphalt, street fixtures) will, for all practical purposes, be permanently and irretrievably committed to the project. Once the street improvements are complete, a substantial amount of fuel will be consumed on a daily basis by vehicles traveling along the roadway. The project would improve several circulation performance characteristics inherent in determining fuel consumption by automobiles. Since traffic volumes on Bristol Street are projected to increase substantially, the proposed improvements should significantly improve k-�- W -1-Wc.
