<strong>Saticoy</strong> & <strong>Wells</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> and Code EIRSection 4.14 Utilities and Service SystemsIncreased development facilitated by the Project would incrementally increase flows to thewastewater treatment plants serving the Project Area. The <strong>Ventura</strong> WRF averagesapproximately 10 MGD and has a designed capacity of 14 MGD, presently leaving 4 MGD ofavailable capacity (Don Burt, 2008). <strong>Development</strong> facilitated by the Project would increase thepopulation of the Project Area by an estimated 4,674 new residents (2.55 residents x 1,833 units).Using the 2005 General <strong>Plan</strong> EIR wastewater generation factors, residential developmentfacilitated by the Project would add 387,792 gallons per day and commercial developmentwould add 244,438 gallons per day, totaling 632,230 gallons per day. This represents a 0.5%increase above existing <strong>Ventura</strong> WRF wastewater flows and represents approximately 16% ofthe available capacity. Table 4.14-7 shows a breakdown of projected wastewater generation.Some wastewater flows may also be diverted to the <strong>Saticoy</strong> Wastewater Treatment <strong>Plan</strong>t.Additionally, an expansion of the <strong>Ventura</strong> WRF is expected to occur within the next 2-3 years,which would increase capacity and allow for the continued compliance with RWQCBrequirements. <strong>Development</strong> facilitated by the Project would not be permitted unless existingfacilities could handle project generated flows.Table 4.14-7Wastewater GenerationLand UseForecastPopulation/AcreageIncreasePer Capita/AcreWastewater GenerationTotal Increase inWastewater GenerationResidential 4,674 people 83 gpd/per capita 387,792 gpdCommercial 6.2 acres 39,425 gpd/acre 244,438 gpdSources: Generation Factors: 2005 General <strong>Plan</strong>, Table 4.11-12 Wastewater Generation Factors.632,230 gpdResidential Calculations:Forecast Population Increase: 2.55 residents x 1,833 units = 4,674 peoplePer Capita Wastewater Generation: 387,792 gpd/4,674 people = 82.96 gpdTotal Increase in Wastewater Generation: 4,674 people x 0.00013 cfs/day x 646,320 gallons/day/cfs = 387,792gpdCommercial Calculations:Forecast Acreage Increase: 270,625 sf/43,560 sf(1 acre) = 6.2 acresPer Acre Wastewater Generation: 244,438 gpd/6.2 acres = 39,425 gpd/acreTotal Increase in Wastewater Generation: 6.2 acres x 0.061 cfs/day x646,320 gallons/day/cfs = 244,438 gpdMitigation Measures. Mitigation is not required as projected wastewater generation iswithin the capacity of the <strong>Ventura</strong> WRF. Continued implementation of the following 2005General <strong>Plan</strong> actions would further reduce wastewater generation.Action 5.6Require project proponents to conduct sewer collection system analyses todetermine if downstream facilities are adequate to handle the proposeddevelopment.Action 5.12 Apply new technologies to increase the efficiency of the wastewatertreatment system.4.14-13<strong>City</strong> of <strong>Ventura</strong>
