Piurlico Drive Turnout anr! Pipeline Project Environmental Ckecklist <br />Santa Rita Road. The control valve will have a 5,000 gpm maximum flow capacity and be <br />controlled remotely. "I'wo isolation valves will be located upstream and downstream of the <br />control valve. A flow meter will also be housed in the vault. The vault will be covered with <br />locking double leaf hatch. <br />The Santa Rita control valve vault will be controlled by a programmable logic controller <br />(PLC), with data telemetered via 2.5 GHz spread-spectrum radio to the City of Pleasanton's <br />Operations Control Center. The high radio frequency transmission system will require an <br />approximately 20 to 25 foot high radio antenna located adjacent to the vault. <br />Construction Scltectule <br />The anticipated duration of construction activities for the proposed project is approximately 28 <br />weeks with certain activities occurring concurrently. General durations of construction include: <br />• start up activities, 11 weeks; <br />• installation of the pipeline, 4 weeks; <br />• installation of the Zone 7 turnout and City of Pleasanton vault, 2 weeks; <br />• construction of the fluoridation building, 5 weeks; <br />• installation of the Santa Rita control valve vault, 2 weeks; and <br />• equipment testing and decommissioning, 4 weeks. <br />Construction-Rekttett Activities <br />Construction will follow the City of Pleasanton's Standard Specifications for materials and <br />methods of construction for the City's public infrastnicture (City of Pleasanton 2002). These <br />specifications address landscaping, construction near trees, traffic control, erosion and <br />sedimentation control, good housekeeping practices including hazardous materials transport, <br />storage and use, constriction hours and schedule, and procedures if archeological artifacts are <br />encountered during construction. <br />Installation of project facilities will require excavation, grading and backfilling. Approximately <br />150 cubic yards of material will be excavated to install the Zone 7 turnout, City of Pleasanton <br />vault, fluoridation building and Santa Rita control valve vault. The pipeline will be installed <br />under Pimlico and Brockton drives using traditional cut and cover construction methods. <br />Approximately 1,800 to 3,600 cubic yards of material will be excavated and excess material <br />hauled offsite and will not be stored along the pipeline construction route. Excess material will <br />be disposed of at a suitable landfill site. Bedding and backfill material will be trucked to the <br />construction site. The work space along Pimlico and Brockton drives will be about 30-feet wide <br />and some traffic lane closures will be necessary, however, at least one lane will be remain open <br />for traffic and a traffic control plan will be prepared and approved by the City of Pleasanton prior <br />to construction. <br />The typical crew size for pipeline installation will include 4 to 6 workers, 3 to 4 truck drivers and <br />inspectors. Truck traffic generated by workers coming to and from the construction site daily <br />will include 6 to 8 at the pipeline construction site, 6 to 8 at the Zone 7 turnout and Pleasanton <br />City of Pleasanton 9 Wiorlcr & Kelly <br />Draft Initial Study/Proposed Negative Dcclarahon August 2006 <br />04263501 <br />
