FIRSTCARBON Proposal <br /> SOU. TION5 <br /> generate effluent that exceeds the permitted capacity,etc. FCS will use information provided by the <br /> applicant about proposed utility demands and facilities. For other areas, FCS information provided by the <br /> City of Pleasanton and service/utility providers about service levels,the adequacy of existing <br /> infrastructure, and similar topics.The following topics will be analyzed: <br /> o Fire Protection/Emergency Medical Services <br /> o Police Protection <br /> o Water Supply <br /> o Wastewater <br /> o Storm Drainage <br /> o Solid Waste <br /> o Energy <br /> Transportation <br /> The proposed project contemplates the development of 39 single-family dwelling units and new <br /> roadways and pedestrian facilities. Additionally,the"Bypass Road" contemplated by the Happy Valley <br /> Specific Plan would be eliminated as part of the project.These characteristics have the potential to <br /> generate new trips, alter traffic circulation patterns, create a need for roadway improvements, and <br /> increase the use of bicycle and pedestrian modes of transportation. FCS will use the Fehr& Peers'Traffic <br /> Impact Analysis as the basis for assessing transportation impacts.The traffic study will be provided as an <br /> appendix to the EIR. <br /> Cumulative Effects <br /> In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15130,the EIR will address the cumulative effects of the <br /> proposed project in combination with other projects.As set forth in the CEQA Guidelines,the cumulative <br /> analysis will focus on impacts to which the project has made a significant incremental contribution.The <br /> analysis will reflect the severity of the impacts and their likelihood of occurrence, and will be guided by <br /> standards of practicality and reasonableness. <br /> Alternatives <br /> Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6,the EIR will evaluate a range of feasible alternatives to the <br /> proposed project. One of the alternatives will be the CEQA-mandated "No Project Alternative,"which is <br /> the circumstance under which the project does not proceed. FCS will evaluate up to two additional <br /> alternatives, likely consisting of a reduction in project size or the retention of the"Bypass Road." In <br /> addition,the Alternatives section will address the feasibility of an alternative location,as well as any <br /> alternatives that were initially considered but rejected from further consideration. <br /> Effects Found Not To Be Significant <br /> CEQA Guidelines Section 15143 establishes that EIRs shall focus on significant impacts on the <br /> environment and need not discuss in detail effects that are clearly insignificant or unlikely to occur(e.g., <br /> NORTH AMERICA I EUROPE I AFRICA I AUSTRALIA I ASIA 20 <br /> FIRSTCARBONSOLUTIONS.COM <br />
