INTRODUCTION <br /> This report presents the results of a noise assessment of the 7-Eleven Store and Carwash <br /> Additions project proposed at 3192 Santa Rita Road in Pleasanton, California. This report <br /> evaluates the project's potential to result in significant noise impacts with respect to applicable <br /> guidelines established by the City of Pleasanton's Noise Ordinance and General Plan Noise <br /> Element. The report provides a brief description of the fundamentals of environmental noise and <br /> vibration and summarizes applicable regulatory criteria. A recent ambient noise monitoring <br /> survey was conducted at the project site to document existing noise conditions, and the results of <br /> this survey are presented in this report. Additionally, based on provided project information, this <br /> assessment calculates and evaluates the future noise levels resulting from the proposed carwash <br /> operations. The impact to the noise environment at each of the surrounding land uses is <br /> discussed, and mitigation measures, where necessary, are recommended to achieve a compatible <br /> project in relation to adjacent noise sources and land uses. <br /> PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION <br /> Currently, there is a Valero gas station, a small market, and an automotive service shop at this <br /> location. For the proposed project, the gas station canopy would remain, but the existing building <br /> containing the small market and automotive service shop would be demolished. In its place, a <br /> new 7-Eleven convenience store would be constructed with an attached carwash. The <br /> convenience store would be approximately 2,467 square feet. The total carwash area would be <br /> approximately 882 square feet. Additionally, a new parking area would provide approximately <br /> 17 parking spots. Figure 1 shows the project site, with the proposed project plans overlaid onto <br /> the existing geometry. <br /> FIGURE 1 Project Site Map with Noise Measurement Locations <br /> ■ <br /> yT., --J rYJFT <br /> 9 <br /> �,, �'T i 1 1 . , a^ r` -, '3.0-:{ •�rR nil <br /> {,ozy�-�.<. �"�' II i 1 t 1, ' ''-'i'' ''''1. --- <br /> h.Fry I •._—_ 1 i `� l i (J'rl` ... <br /> •,1 ■ ; 1-*i :1; • 1 t Eqii.* ri, <br /> ti n.kr,.
