8.B. - Page 86 <br /> facilities and system capacity to serve the City. Improvement projects ranging from rehabilitation of <br /> existing pump stations and replacement of aging sewer infrastructure are completed yearly. In <br /> August 2008, Redwood City completed an evaluation of the sewer capacity analysis that provided a <br /> list of improvements that are necessary to support future planned growth through the year 2030. The <br /> project is a part of the residential growth anticipated for Redwood City which would be served by the <br /> improvements identified in the City's CIP. Implementation of the project would not,therefore, <br /> adversely affect the functionality or capacity of the sanitary sewer or wastewater treatment facilities. <br /> (Less Than Significant Impact) <br /> 4.17.2.3 Storm Drainage <br /> The existing site is 21 percent impervious. The proposed project would increase impervious surfaces <br /> at the project site by appro�mately 11 percent. Redwood Creek in the vicinity of the project site <br /> flows through a concrete lined drainage channel. The majority of stormwater runoff from the project <br /> site would drain into the channel. The project site would be graded to direct water towards bioswales <br /> located between the residences. Stormwater would be filtered through bioswales located between the <br /> residences and then drained into a detention pipe at that back of the properties. The water would be <br /> discharged through an outlet into Redwood Creek located in the back of the property. Redwood <br /> Creek has sufficient capacity to accommodate the minimal increase in stormwater runoff from the <br /> proposed project. (Less Than Significant Impact) <br /> The only stormwater that would enter the Valota Road drainage system would be from the private <br /> driveway on Lot 1. The driveway would be constructed with pervious pavers, and stormwater runoff <br /> from the driveway onto Valota Road would be minimal. Runoff from the project site would not <br /> exceed the capacity of the Valota Road drainage system. (Less Than Significant Impact) <br /> 4.17.2.4 Solid Waste Impacts <br /> The project would generate approximately 43 pounds of solid waste per day52 which is 34.4 pounds <br /> per day more than the e�sting use. The project would be served by an e�sting landfill with <br /> substantial remaining capacity. New landfill facilities would not need to be constructed to service <br /> the proposed project. (Less Than Significant Impact) <br /> 4.17.3 Conclusion <br /> Implementation of the proposed project will not exceed the capacity of e�sting utility and service <br /> systems that serve Redwood City. (Less Than Significant Impact) <br /> s�Based on the assumed residential solid waste generation rate used in the General Plan EIR of 8.6 pounds of solid <br /> waste per dwelling unit per day. <br /> 1410 Valota Road Residential Project 74 Initial Study <br /> Redwood City January 2012 <br />
