Site Design & Landscape Planning SD-10
January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 4
New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Description
Each project site possesses unique topographic, hydrologic, and vegetative features, some of which are more suitable for development than others. Integrating and incorporating appropriate landscape planning methodologies into the project design is the most effective action that can be done to minimize surface and groundwater contamination from stormwater. Approach Landscape planning should couple consideration of land suitability for urban uses with consideration of community goals and projected growth. Project plan designs should conserve natural areas to the extent possible, maximize natural water storage and infiltration opportunities, and protect slopes and channels. Suitable Applications Appropriate applications include residential, commercial and industrial areas planned for development or redevelopment. Design Considerations
Design requirements for site design and landscapes planning should conform to applicable standards and specifications of agencies with jurisdiction and be consistent with applicable General Plan and Local Area Plan policies.

SD-10 Site Design & Landscape Planning
2 of 4 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003
New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Designing New Installations
Begin the development of a plan for the landscape unit with attention to the following general principles:
Formulate the plan on the basis of clearly articulated community goals. Carefully identify conflicts and choices between retaining and protecting desired resources and community growth. Map and assess land suitability for urban uses. Include the following landscape features in the assessment: wooded land, open unwooded land, steep slopes, erosion-prone soils, foundation suitability, soil suitability for waste disposal, aquifers, aquifer recharge areas, wetlands, floodplains, surface waters, agricultural lands, and various categories of urban land use. When appropriate, the assessment can highlight outstanding local or regional resources that the community determines should be protected (e.g., a scenic area, recreational area, threatened species habitat, farmland, fish run). Mapping and assessment should recognize not only these resources but also additional areas needed for their sustenance. Project plan designs should conserve natural areas to the extent possible, maximize natural water storage and infiltration opportunities, and protect slopes and channels. Conserve Natural Areas during Landscape Planning If applicable, the following items are required and must be implemented in the site layout during the subdivision design and approval process, consistent with applicable General Plan and Local Area Plan policies:
Cluster development on least-sensitive portions of a site while leaving the remaining land in a natural undisturbed condition. Limit clearing and grading of native vegetation at a site to the minimum amount needed to build lots, allow access, and provide fire protection. Maximize trees and other vegetation at each site by planting additional vegetation, clustering tree areas, and promoting the use of native and/or drought tolerant plants. Promote natural vegetation by using parking lot islands and other landscaped areas. Preserve riparian areas and wetlands. Maximize Natural Water Storage and Infiltration Opportunities Within the Landscape Unit Promote the conservation of forest cover. Building on land that is already deforested affects basin hydrology to a lesser extent than converting forested land. Loss of forest cover reduces interception storage, detention in the organic forest floor layer, and water losses by evapotranspiration, resulting in large peak runoff increases and either their negative effects or the expense of countering them with structural solutions. Maintain natural storage reservoirs and drainage corridors, including depressions, areas of permeable soils, swales, and intermittent streams. Develop and implement policies and Site Design & Landscape Planning SD-10
January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 4
New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com regulations to discourage the clearing, filling, and channelization of these features. Utilize them in drainage networks in preference to pipes, culverts, and engineered ditches. Evaluating infiltration opportunities by referring to the stormwater management manual for the jurisdiction and pay particular attention to the selection criteria for avoiding groundwater contamination, poor soils, and hydrogeological conditions that cause these facilities to fail. If necessary, locate developments with large amounts of impervious surfaces or a potential to produce relatively contaminated runoff away from groundwater recharge areas. Protection of Slopes and Channels during Landscape Design Convey runoff safely from the tops of slopes. Avoid disturbing steep or unstable slopes. Avoid disturbing natural channels. Stabilize disturbed slopes as quickly as possible. Vegetate slopes with native or drought tolerant vegetation. Control and treat flows in landscaping and/or other controls prior to reaching existing natural drainage systems. Stabilize temporary and permanent channel crossings as quickly as possible, and ensure that increases in run-off velocity and frequency caused by the project do not erode the channel. Install energy dissipaters, such as riprap, at the outlets of new storm drains, culverts, conduits, or channels that enter unlined channels in accordance with applicable specifications to minimize erosion. Energy dissipaters shall be installed in such a way as to minimize impacts to receiving waters. Line on-site conveyance channels where appropriate, to reduce erosion caused by increased flow velocity due to increases in tributary impervious area. The first choice for linings should be grass or some other vegetative surface, since these materials not only reduce runoff velocities, but also provide water quality benefits from filtration and infiltration. If velocities in the channel are high enough to erode grass or other vegetative linings, riprap, concrete, soil cement, or geo-grid stabilization are other alternatives. Consider other design principles that are comparable and equally effective. Redeveloping Existing Installations Various jurisdictional stormwater management and mitigation plans (SUSMP, WQMP, etc.) define “redevelopment” in terms of amounts of additional impervious area, increases in gross floor area and/or exterior construction, and land disturbing activities with structural or impervious surfaces. The definition of “ redevelopment” must be consulted to determine whether or not the requirements for new development apply to areas intended for redevelopment. If the definition applies, the steps outlined under “designing new installations” above should be followed.

Roof Runoff Controls SD-11
January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 3
New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbook.com Description
Various roof runoff controls are available to address stormwater that drains off rooftops. The objective is to reduce the total volume and rate of runoff from individual lots, and retain the pollutants on site that may be picked up from roofing materials and atmospheric deposition. Roof runoff controls consist of directing the roof runoff away from paved areas and mitigating flow to the storm drain system through one of several general approaches: cisterns or rain barrels; dry wells or infiltration trenches; pop-up emitters, and foundation planting. The first three approaches require the roof runoff to be contained in a gutter and downspout system. Foundation planting provides a vegetated strip under the drip line of the roof. Approach
Design of individual lots for single-family homes as well as lots for higher density residential and commercial structures should consider site design provisions for containing and infiltrating roof runoff or directing roof runoff to vegetative swales or buffer areas. Retained water can be reused for watering gardens, lawns, and trees. Benefits to the environment include reduced demand for potable water used for irrigation, improved stormwater quality, increased groundwater recharge, decreased runoff volume and peak flows, and decreased flooding potential. Suitable Applications Appropriate applications include residential, commercial and industrial areas planned for development or redevelopment. Design Considerations
Designing New Installations
Cisterns or Rain Barrels
One method of addressing roof runoff is to direct roof downspouts to cisterns or rain barrels. A cistern is an above ground storage vessel with either a manually operated valve or a permanently open outlet. Roof runoff is temporarily stored and then released for irrigation or infiltration between storms. The number of rain Design Objectives

New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbook.com barrels needed is a function of the rooftop area. Some low impact developers recommend that every house have at least 2 rain barrels, with a minimum storage capacity of 1000 liters. Roof barrels serve several purposes including mitigating the first flush from the roof which has a high volume, amount of contaminants, and thermal load. Several types of rain barrels are commercially available. Consideration must be given to selecting rain barrels that are vector proof and childproof. In addition, some barrels are designed with a bypass valve that filters out grit and other contaminants and routes overflow to a soak-away pit or rain garden. If the cistern has an operable valve, the valve can be closed to store stormwater for irrigation or infiltration between storms. This system requires continual monitoring by the resident or grounds crews, but provides greater flexibility in water storage and metering. If a cistern is provided with an operable valve and water is stored inside for long periods, the cistern must be covered to prevent mosquitoes from breeding. A cistern system with a permanently open outlet can also provide for metering stormwater runoff. If the cistern outlet is significantly smaller than the size of the downspout inlet (say ¼ to ½ inch diameter), runoff will build up inside the cistern during storms, and will empty out slowly after peak intensities subside. This is a feasible way to mitigate the peak flow increases caused by rooftop impervious land coverage, especially for the frequent, small storms. Dry wells and Infiltration Trenches Roof downspouts can be directed to dry wells or infiltration trenches. A dry well is constructed by excavating a hole in the ground and filling it with an open graded aggregate, and allowing the water to fill the dry well and infiltrate after the storm event. An underground connection from the downspout conveys water into the dry well, allowing it to be stored in the voids. To minimize sedimentation from lateral soil movement, the sides and top of the stone storage matrix can be wrapped in a permeable filter fabric, though the bottom may remain open. A perforated observation pipe can be inserted vertically into the dry well to allow for inspection and maintenance. In practice, dry wells receiving runoff from single roof downspouts have been successful over long periods because they contain very little sediment. They must be sized according to the amount of rooftop runoff received, but are typically 4 to 5 feet square, and 2 to 3 feet deep, with a minimum of 1-foot soil cover over the top (maximum depth of 10 feet). To protect the foundation, dry wells must be set away from the building at least 10 feet. They must be installed in solids that accommodate infiltration. In poorly drained soils, dry wells have very limited feasibility. Infiltration trenches function in a similar manner and would be particularly effective for larger roof areas. An infiltration trench is a long, narrow, rock-filled trench with no outlet that receives stormwater runoff. These are described under Treatment Controls. Pop-up Drainage Emitter Roof downspouts can be directed to an underground pipe that daylights some distance from the building foundation, releasing the roof runoff through a pop-up emitter. Similar to a pop-up irrigation head, the emitter only opens when there is flow from the roof. The emitter remains flush to the ground during dry periods, for ease of lawn or landscape maintenance.
Roof Runoff Controls SD-11
January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 3
New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbook.com Foundation Planting
Landscape planting can be provided around the base to allow increased opportunities for stormwater infiltration and protect the soil from erosion caused by concentrated sheet flow coming off the roof. Foundation plantings can reduce the physical impact of water on the soil and provide a subsurface matrix of roots that encourage infiltration. These plantings must be sturdy enough to tolerate the heavy runoff sheet flows, and periodic soil saturation. Redeveloping Existing Installations Various jurisdictional stormwater management and mitigation plans (SUSMP, WQMP, etc.) define “redevelopment” in terms of amounts of additional impervious area, increases in gross floor area and/or exterior construction, and land disturbing activities with structural or impervious surfaces. The definition of “ redevelopment” must be consulted to determine whether or not the requirements for new development apply to areas intended for redevelopment. If the definition applies, the steps outlined under “designing new installations” above should be followed.

Irrigation water provided to landscaped areas may result in excess irrigation water being conveyed into stormwater drainage systems. Approach
Project plan designs for development and redevelopment should include application methods of irrigation water that minimize runoff of excess irrigation water into the stormwater conveyance system. Suitable Applications
Appropriate applications include residential, commercial and industrial areas planned for development or redevelopment. (Detached residential single-family homes are typically excluded from this requirement.)
Design Considerations
Designing New Installations
The following methods to reduce excessive irrigation runoff should be considered, and incorporated and implemented where determined applicable and feasible by the Permittee:
Employ rain-triggered shutoff devices to prevent irrigation after precipitation. Design irrigation systems to each landscape area’s specific water requirements. Include design featuring flow reducers or shutoff valves triggered by a pressure drop to control water loss in the event of broken sprinkler heads or lines. Implement landscape plans consistent with County or City water conservation resolutions, which may include provision of water sensors, programmable irrigation times (for short cycles), etc.

Trash Storage Areas SD-32
January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 2
New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Description
Trash storage areas are areas where a trash receptacle (s) are located for use as a repository for solid wastes. Stormwater runoff from areas where trash is stored or disposed of can be polluted. In addition, loose trash and debris can be easily transported by water or wind into nearby storm drain inlets, channels, and/or creeks. Waste handling operations that may be sources of stormwater pollution include dumpsters, litter control, and waste piles. Approach This fact sheet contains details on the specific measures required to prevent or reduce pollutants in stormwater runoff associated with trash storage and handling. Preventative measures
including enclosures, containment structures, and impervious pavements to mitigate spills, should be used to reduce the likelihood of contamination. Suitable Applications
Appropriate applications include residential, commercial and industrial areas planned for development or redevelopment. (Detached residential single-family homes are typically excluded from this requirement.)
Design Considerations
Design requirements for waste handling areas are governed by Building and Fire Codes, and by current local agency ordinances and zoning requirements. The design criteria described in this fact sheet are meant to enhance and be consistent with these code and ordinance requirements. Hazardous waste should be handled in accordance with legal requirements established in Title 22, California Code of Regulation. Wastes from commercial and industrial sites are typically hauled by either public or commercial carriers that may have design or access requirements for waste storage areas. The design criteria in this fact sheet are recommendations and are not intended to be in conflict with requirements established by the waste hauler. The waste hauler should be contacted prior to the design of your site trash collection areas. Conflicts or issues should be discussed with the local agency. Designing New Installations
Trash storage areas should be designed to consider the following structural or treatment control BMPs:
Design trash container areas so that drainage from adjoining roofs and pavement is diverted around the area(s) to avoid run-on. This might include berming or grading the waste handling area to prevent run-on of stormwater. Make sure trash container areas are screened or walled to prevent off-site transport of trash.

New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Use lined bins or dumpsters to reduce leaking of liquid waste. Provide roofs, awnings, or attached lids on all trash containers to minimize direct precipitation and prevent rainfall from entering containers. Pave trash storage areas with an impervious surface to mitigate spills. Do not locate storm drains in immediate vicinity of the trash storage area. Post signs on all dumpsters informing users that hazardous materials are not to be disposed of therein. Redeveloping Existing Installations
Various jurisdictional stormwater management and mitigation plans (SUSMP, WQMP, etc.) define “redevelopment” in terms of amounts of additional impervious area, increases in gross floor area and/or exterior construction, and land disturbing activities with structural or impervious surfaces. The definition of “ redevelopment” must be consulted to determine whether or not the requirements for new development apply to areas intended for redevelopment. If the definition applies, the steps outlined under “designing new installations” above should be followed. Additional Information Maintenance Considerations
The integrity of structural elements that are subject to damage (i.e., screens, covers, and signs) must be maintained by the owner/operator. Maintenance agreements between the local agency and the owner/operator may be required. Some agencies will require maintenance deed restrictions to be recorded of the property title. If required by the local agency, maintenance agreements or deed restrictions must be executed by the owner/operator before improvement plans are approved. Other Resources

Description
Wash water from vehicle and equipment
cleaning activities performed outdoors or in
areas where wash water flows onto the ground
can contribute toxic hydrocarbons and other
organic compounds, oils and greases,
nutrients, phosphates, heavy metals, and
suspended solids to stormwater runoff. Use of
the procedures outlined below can prevent or
reduce the discharge of pollutants to
stormwater during vehicle and equipment
cleaning.
Approach
Reduce potential for pollutant discharge
through source control pollution prevention
and BMP implementation. Successful
implementation depends on effective training
of employees on applicable BMPs and general
pollution prevention strategies and objectives
General Pollution Prevention Protocols
If possible, use properly maintained off-site
commercial washing and steam cleaning
businesses whenever possible. These
businesses are better equipped to handle
and properly dispose of the wash waters.
Use dry cleaning methods to remove debris
and sweep area; avoid washing with water
when possible.
Good housekeeping practices can minimize
the risk of contamination from wash water
discharges.
Use biodegradable, phosphate-free
detergents for washing vehicles as
appropriate
Emphasize the connection between the
storm drain system and runoff, help
reinforce that vehicle and equipment
washing activities affect local water quality
through storm drain stenciling programs.

Map on-site storm drain locations to avoid discharges to the storm drain system. Designate specific wash area with clarifier or place wash areas away from storm drain connections.
Good Housekeeping
Mark the area clearly as a wash area by:
Posting signs stating that only washing is allowed in wash area; and Providing information on how washing is to be done.
Provide trash containers in wash area.
Have all vehicle and equipment washing done in areas designed to collect and hold the wash and rinse water or effluent generated. Recycle, collect or treat wash water effluent prior to discharge to the sanitary sewer system. If washing/cleaning must occur on-site, consider washing vehicles and equipment inside the building or on an impervious surface to control the targeted constituents by directing them to the sanitary sewer.
If washing must occur on-site and outdoor:
Use designated paved wash areas. This area must be covered or bermed to collect the wash water and graded to direct the wash water to a treatment or disposal facility.
Do not conduct oil changes and other engine maintenance in the designated washing area. Perform these activities in a place designated for oil change and maintenance activities.
Cover the wash area when not in use to prevent contact with rain water. Do not permit steam cleaning wash water to enter the storm drain system. If possible, conduct pressure and steam cleaning at appropriate off-site areas to avoid generating runoff with high pollutant concentrations.
Preventative Maintenance
Install sumps or drain lines to collect wash water for treatment. Use hoses with nozzles that automatically turn off when left unattended. Perform routine inspections of drain lines, holding tanks, and hoses and repair leaks immediately.
Vehicle and Equipment Cleaning SC-21
September 2014 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 6 Industrial and Commercial
www.casqa.org
Perform routine inspection and maintenance of wash water recycling and treatment systems.
Spill Response and Prevention Procedures
Keep the spill prevention and control plan up-to-date. Have an emergency plan, equipment, and trained personnel ready at all times to deal immediately with major spills.
Collect all spilled liquids and properly dispose of them. Store and maintain appropriate spill cleanup materials in a location known to all near the designated wash area.
Material Handling and Waste Management
Collect all wash water from vehicle and equipment cleaning operations. Consider treating and reusing or discharging wash waters to a sanitary sewer system. Large quantities of wash waters may require treatment at the facility. Treatment using a process treatment system (e.g., holding tank, filtration system, and related appurtenances) will require engineering and capital expenditures. Collect and treat small amounts of wash water at the facility and either recycle or discharge to the sanitary sewer system or collect and dispose of as an industrial waste.
Discharge wash waters into sanitary sewer only after contacting local sewer authority to find out if pretreatment is required.
Employee Training Program
Train employees on proper cleaning and wash water disposal procedures and conduct “refresher” courses on a regular basis.
Train staff on proper maintenance measures for the wash area. Train employees and contractors on proper spill containment and cleanup. The employee should have the tools and knowledge to immediately begin cleaning up a spill should one occur.
Use a training log or similar method to document training.
Quality Assurance and Record Keeping
Keep accurate maintenance/inspection logs that document the minimum BMP activities performed for vehicle and equipment cleaning activities and improvement actions.
Vehicle and Equipment Cleaning SC-21
September 2014 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 4 of 6 Industrial and Commercial
www.casqa.org
Keep accurate logs of spill response actions that document what was spilled, how it was cleaned up, and how the waste was disposed.
Establish procedures to complete logs and file them in the central office.
Other Facility-Specific Considerations
Some municipalities may require pretreatment and monitoring of wash water discharges to the sanitary sewer. Steam cleaning can generate significant pollutant concentrations requiring that careful consideration be given to the environmental impacts and compliance issues related to the condensate wastewater generated.
Potential Limitations and Work-Arounds
Some facilities may have space constraints, limited staffing and time limitations that may preclude implementation of certain BMPs. Provided below are typical limitations and recommended “work-arounds”:
Most car washing best management practices are inexpensive, and rely more on good housekeeping practices (where vehicles are washed, planning for the collection of wash water) than on expensive technology. However, the construction of a specialized area for vehicle washing can be expensive. Also, for facilities that cannot recycle their wash water, the cost of pre-treating wash water through either structural practices or planning for collection and hauling of contaminated water to sewage treatment plants can be cost-prohibitive.
A potential work-around is to use properly maintained off-site commercial washing and steam cleaning businesses whenever possible.
Potential Capital Facility Costs and Operation & Maintenance Requirements
Facilities
Many facilities will already have indoor covered areas where vehicle and equipment cleaning takes place and will require no additional capital expenditures for providing cover.
Capital investments will be required at some sites if systems to collect and recycle/treat and properly discharge wash water are not in place. The cost associated with these investments will vary depending on the size of the washing facility and local regulations regarding effluent wash water.
Maintenance
Perform wash and collection system inspections and repair. Sweep washing areas frequently to remove solid debris.

Infiltration Basin TC-11
January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 8
New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Description
An infiltration basin is a shallow impoundment that is designed to infiltrate stormwater. Infiltration basins use the natural filtering ability of the soil to remove pollutants in stormwater runoff. Infiltration facilities store runoff until it gradually exfiltrates through the soil and eventually into the water table. This practice has high pollutant removal efficiency and can also help recharge groundwater, thus helping to maintain low flows in stream systems. Infiltration basins can be challenging to apply on many sites, however, because of soils requirements. In addition, some studies have shown relatively high failure rates compared with other management practices. California Experience Infiltration basins have a long history of use in California, especially in the Central Valley. Basins located in Fresno were among those initially evaluated in the National Urban Runoff Program and were found to be effective at reducing the volume of runoff, while posing little long-term threat to groundwater quality (EPA, 1983; Schroeder, 1995). Proper siting of these devices is crucial as underscored by the experience of Caltrans in siting two basins in Southern California. The basin with marginal separation from groundwater and soil permeability failed immediately and could never be rehabilitated. Advantages Provides 100% reduction in the load discharged to surface waters. The principal benefit of infiltration basins is the approximation of pre-development hydrology during which a Design Considerations

New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com significant portion of the average annual rainfall runoff is infiltrated and evaporated rather than flushed directly to creeks. If the water quality volume is adequately sized, infiltration basins can be useful for providing control of channel forming (erosion) and high frequency (generally less than the 2-year) flood events. Limitations
May not be appropriate for industrial sites or locations where spills may occur. Infiltration basins require a minimum soil infiltration rate of 0.5 inches/hour, not appropriate at sites with Hydrologic Soil Types C and D. If infiltration rates exceed 2.4 inches/hour, then the runoff should be fully treated prior to infiltration to protect groundwater quality. Not suitable on fill sites or steep slopes. Risk of groundwater contamination in very coarse soils. Upstream drainage area must be completely stabilized before construction. Difficult to restore functioning of infiltration basins once clogged. Design and Sizing Guidelines Water quality volume determined by local requirements or sized so that 85% of the annual runoff volume is captured. Basin sized so that the entire water quality volume is infiltrated within 48 hours. Vegetation establishment on the basin floor may help reduce the clogging rate. Construction/Inspection Considerations Before construction begins, stabilize the entire area draining to the facility. If impossible, place a diversion berm around the perimeter of the infiltration site to prevent sediment entrance during construction or remove the top 2 inches of soil after the site is stabililized. Stabilize the entire contributing drainage area, including the side slopes, before allowing any runoff to enter once construction is complete. Place excavated material such that it can not be washed back into the basin if a storm occurs during construction of the facility. Build the basin without driving heavy equipment over the infiltration surface. Any equipment driven on the surface should have extra-wide (“low pressure”) tires. Prior to any construction, rope off the infiltration area to stop entrance by unwanted equipment. After final grading, till the infiltration surface deeply. Use appropriate erosion control seed mix for the specific project and location.

January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 8
New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Performance
As water migrates through porous soil and rock, pollutant attenuation mechanisms include precipitation, sorption, physical filtration, and bacterial degradation. If functioning properly, this approach is presumed to have high removal efficiencies for particulate pollutants and moderate removal of soluble pollutants. Actual pollutant removal in the subsurface would be expected to vary depending upon site-specific soil types. This technology eliminates discharge to surface waters except for the very largest storms; consequently, complete removal of all stormwater constituents can be assumed. There remain some concerns about the potential for groundwater contamination despite the findings of the NURP and Nightingale (1975; 1987a,b,c; 1989). For instance, a report by Pitt et al. (1994) highlighted the potential for groundwater contamination from intentional and unintentional stormwater infiltration. That report recommends that infiltration facilities not be sited in areas where high concentrations are present or where there is a potential for spills of toxic material. Conversely, Schroeder (1995) reported that there was no evidence of groundwater impacts from an infiltration basin serving a large industrial catchment in Fresno, CA. Siting Criteria The key element in siting infiltration basins is identifying sites with appropriate soil and hydrogeologic properties, which is critical for long term performance. In one study conducted in Prince George's County, Maryland (Galli, 1992), all of the infiltration basins investigated clogged within 2 years. It is believed that these failures were for the most part due to allowing infiltration at sites with rates of less than 0.5 in/hr, basing siting on soil type rather than field infiltration tests, and poor construction practices that resulted in soil compaction of the basin invert. A study of 23 infiltration basins in the Pacific Northwest showed better long-term performance in an area with highly permeable soils (Hilding, 1996). In this study, few of the infiltration basins had failed after 10 years. Consequently, the following guidelines for identifying appropriate soil and subsurface conditions should be rigorously adhered to. Determine soil type (consider RCS soil type ‘A, B or C’ only) from mapping and consult USDA soil survey tables to review other parameters such as the amount of silt and clay, presence of a restrictive layer or seasonal high water table, and estimated permeability. The soil should not have more than 30% clay or more than 40% of clay and silt combined. Eliminate sites that are clearly unsuitable for infiltration. Groundwater separation should be at least 3 m from the basin invert to the measured ground water elevation. There is concern at the state and regional levels of the impact on groundwater quality from infiltrated runoff, especially when the separation between groundwater and the surface is small. Location away from buildings, slopes and highway pavement (greater than 6 m) and wells and bridge structures (greater than 30 m). Sites constructed of fill, having a base flow or with a slope greater than 15% should not be considered. Ensure that adequate head is available to operate flow splitter structures (to allow the basin to be offline) without ponding in the splitter structure or creating backwater upstream of the splitter.
TC-11 Infiltration Basin
4 of 8 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003
New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Base flow should not be present in the tributary watershed. Secondary Screening Based on Site Geotechnical Investigation At least three in-hole conductivity tests shall be performed using USBR 7300-89 or BouwerRice procedures (the latter if groundwater is encountered within the boring), two tests at different locations within the proposed basin and the third down gradient by no more than approximately 10 m. The tests shall measure permeability in the side slopes and the bed within a depth of 3 m of the invert. The minimum acceptable hydraulic conductivity as measured in any of the three required test holes is 13 mm/hr. If any test hole shows less than the minimum value, the site should be disqualified from further consideration. Exclude from consideration sites constructed in fill or partially in fill unless no silts or clays are present in the soil boring. Fill tends to be compacted, with clays in a dispersed rather than flocculated state, greatly reducing permeability. The geotechnical investigation should be such that a good understanding is gained as to how the stormwater runoff will move in the soil (horizontally or vertically) and if there are any geological conditions that could inhibit the movement of water. Additional Design Guidelines (1) Basin Sizing - The required water quality volume is determined by local regulations or sufficient to capture 85% of the annual runoff. (2) Provide pretreatment if sediment loading is a maintenance concern for the basin. (3) Include energy dissipation in the inlet design for the basins. Avoid designs that include a permanent pool to reduce opportunity for standing water and associated vector problems. (4) Basin invert area should be determined by the equation:
where A = Basin invert area (m2)
WQV = water quality volume (m3)
k = 0.5 times the lowest field-measured hydraulic conductivity (m/hr)
t = drawdown time ( 48 hr)
(5) The use of vertical piping, either for distribution or infiltration enhancement shall not be allowed to avoid device classification as a Class V injection well per 40 CFR146.5(e)(4).

New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Maintenance
Regular maintenance is critical to the successful operation of infiltration basins. Recommended operation and maintenance guidelines include:
Inspections and maintenance to ensure that water infiltrates into the subsurface completely (recommended infiltration rate of 72 hours or less) and that vegetation is carefully managed to prevent creating mosquito and other vector habitats. Observe drain time for the design storm after completion or modification of the facility to confirm that the desired drain time has been obtained. Schedule semiannual inspections for beginning and end of the wet season to identify potential problems such as erosion of the basin side slopes and invert, standing water, trash and debris, and sediment accumulation. Remove accumulated trash and debris in the basin at the start and end of the wet season. Inspect for standing water at the end of the wet season. Trim vegetation at the beginning and end of the wet season to prevent establishment of woody vegetation and for aesthetic and vector reasons. Remove accumulated sediment and regrade when the accumulated sediment volume exceeds 10% of the basin. If erosion is occurring within the basin, revegetate immediately and stabilize with an erosion control mulch or mat until vegetation cover is established. To avoid reversing soil development, scarification or other disturbance should only be performed when there are actual signs of clogging, rather than on a routine basis. Always remove deposited sediments before scarification, and use a hand-guided rotary tiller, if possible, or a disc harrow pulled by a very light tractor. Cost Infiltration basins are relatively cost-effective practices because little infrastructure is needed when constructing them. One study estimated the total construction cost at about $2 per ft (adjusted for inflation) of storage for a 0.25-acre basin (SWRPC, 1991). As with other BMPs, these published cost estimates may deviate greatly from what might be incurred at a specific site. For instance, Caltrans spent about $18/ft3for the two infiltration basins constructed in southern California, each of which had a water quality volume of about 0.34 ac.-ft. Much of the higher cost can be attributed to changes in the storm drain system necessary to route the runoff to the basin locations. Infiltration basins typically consume about 2 to 3% of the site draining to them, which is relatively small. Additional space may be required for buffer, landscaping, access road, and fencing. Maintenance costs are estimated at 5 to 10% of construction costs. One cost concern associated with infiltration practices is the maintenance burden and longevity. If improperly maintained, infiltration basins have a high failure rate. Thus, it may be necessary to replace the basin with a different technology after a relatively short period of time.

Oil and grease
Toxic chemicals in cleaning products, disinfectants, and pesticides Approach
Minimize exposure of rain and runoff to outdoor cleaning and storage areas by using cover and containment. In and around these areas, use good housekeeping to minimize the generation of pollutants. Make stormwater pollution prevention BMPs a part of standard operating procedures and the employee training program. Provide employee education materials in the first language of employees.
Source Control BMPs
The best management practices are listed by activity or area in the following table.
Dumpster
and
Loading
Dock Areas
Store and transfer all solid and liquid wastes, such as tallow, in watertight covered containers.
Keep litter from accumulating around loading docks by providing trash receptacles and encouraging employees to use them.
Bag and seal food waste before putting it in the dumpster. Do not place uncontained liquids, or leaking containers or garbage bags into a dumpster.
Keep dumpster lids closed to keep out rainwater and to prevent trash from spilling out.
If the dumpster regularly overflows, get a bigger one or arrange for more frequent collection. If the dumpster is shared with other tenants, speak with the property/lease manager about scheduling more frequent trash pickups or a larger dumpster.
Don’t hose out dumpsters. Apply absorbent over any fluids spilled in dumpster. Absorbent will usually be knocked out when the dumpster is emptied.
Have the dumpster leasing company repair or replace leaky dumpsters and compactors, and have them clean out dirty dumpsters. Install a spill cleanup kit near the dumpster and loading dock areas. Post employee reminder signs such as “Keep lid closed” near tallow bins and dumpsters.
Consider enclosing the dumpster in a roofed and bermed area to prevent exposure to rainwater, and draining the area to the sanitary sewer.
Contact the local wastewater treatment plant or the county environmental health department for guidance.
Keep dumpsters or the dumpster enclosure locked to prevent illegal dumping.
For more information on cleaning dumpster areas see the Mobile Cleaning - Food Service Business-related business guide sheet in this series.

Equipment
and
Outdoor
Cleaning
Make sure all discharges from cooling equipment go to the sanitary sewer and not the street, gutter, or storm drain.
Clean floor mats, filters, and garbage cans in a mop sink, floor drain, or proper outside area connected to the sanitary sewer with an oil and water separator. Don’t wash them in a parking lot, alley, sidewalk, or street. Consider installing anti-slip floors when you remodel. Consider cleaning filters in the dishwasher. Contact the local wastewater treatment plant or the county environmental health department for guidance.
Pour wash water into a janitorial or mop sink. Don’t pour it out onto a parking lot, alley, sidewalk, or street.
For outdoor cleaning, have employees or contractors follow the instructions in the following business guide sheet in this series:
Mobile Cleaning - Food Service Business-related
Mobile Cleaning – Surface cleaning
For more information in general on cleaning floor mats, equipment, exhaust filters, and outdoor surfaces see the Mobile Cleaning - Food Service Business-related business guide sheet in this series.
Spill
Cleanup
Prepare a spill cleanup plan that includes:
Procedures for different types of spills
Schedule for initial and annual training of employees Cleanup kits in well-marked, accessible areas
Designation of key employee who monitors cleanup
Posting the plan in the work area
If a spill occurs, immediately stop the spill at its source. Keep the spill from entering the street, gutter, or storm drain. Use dry methods for spill cleanup (sweeping, cat litter, etc.). Don’t hose down spills.
If wet cleaning (including high-temperature or high pressure washing) is required, dry clean first and then mop (or if it is absolutely necessary, wash) and collect the water. Dispose of water in sink or other indoor drain, not in the street, gutter, or storm drain.
If a final rinse is necessary for health reasons, collect the rinsewater and dispose it to the sink or indoor floor drain. If outdoors, block the storm drain before applying water. Mop up or wet-vacuum water, and dispose it to a sink or indoor drain.
Do not use bleach or disinfectants if there is a possibility that rinsewater could flow to a street, gutter, or storm drain.

Recycling
and
Disposal
Separate wastes. Keep your recyclable wastes in separate containers according to the type of material. They are easier to recycle if separated. Recycle the following materials:
Food waste (non-greasy, non-animal food waste can be
composted). Donate leftover, edible food whenever possible to local food banks.
Paper and cardboard
Container glass, aluminum, and tin
Pallets and drums
Dispose of toxic waste properly. Toxic waste includes used cleaners, and rags (soaked with solvents, floor cleaners, and detergents).
Grease
Handling
and
Disposal
Never pour oil, grease, or large quantities of oily liquids such as sauces or salad dressings or waste grease down a sink, floor drain, storm drain, or into a dumpster.
Install screens and solid traps in sink and floor drains to catch larger solids. Clean these screens and traps frequently.
Don’t try to “dissolve” grease by adding hot water or emulsifying chemicals – it will only move the grease further down the building‘s sewer line and make it harder to remove later.
Recycle grease and oil. Don’t pour it into sinks, floor drains, or onto a parking lot or street. Look in the phone book for “Renderers” or call the local recycling or household hazardous waste information line. Use tallow bins or sealed containers with tamper-proof lids. Keep the exterior of the container clean. Check for leaks. Ask the recycler for a leak-free tallow bin and replace any leaky grease containers. If grease is stored outside, keep it under a roof, if possible.
Do not contaminate the recyclable oils and grease in the tallow bin with the waste grease from the grease trap or grease interceptor. Inspect and clean all waste grease removal devices (grease trap or grease interceptor) often enough to keep them functioning properly and efficiently.
For disposal of waste grease from the grease trap or grease interceptor, see “Grease Traps” or “Septic Tanks” in the phone book.

Land- scaping
and
Grounds
Maintenance
Never dispose of leftover pesticides in the gutter, street, or storm drain.
Leftover pesticides must be either used up or disposed of as hazardous waste.
Do not blow or rake leaves, grass, or garden clippings into the street, gutter, or storm drain.
If pesticides are used, do not over apply or apply when rain is forecast. Do not use copper-based algaecides in pools or fountains. Control algae with chlorine or other alternatives to copper-based products.
Pest
Control
Food Sources
Keep the kitchen free of food scraps.
Take out garbage each night in a closed container.
Refrigerate all food or store in pest-proof containers each night. Keep ventilation system working properly to keep greasy residue off walls.
Appliances
Keep dishwasher area clean. Check the trap nightly.
Where possible, elevate appliances at least 6 inches off the floor. Clean under appliances nightly.
Steam clean or wash appliances weekly.
Remember to clean under the counter, under the sink, and the refrigerator vent.
Drains and Trash Cans
Steam clean or scrub floor drains with a brush to help eliminate fruit flies.
Keep dumpster area clean – inside and out.
Wash garbage cans regularly.
Supplies and Entry Points
Check for pests before bringing supplies in to the kitchen. Roaches like corrugated boxes.
Don’t store boxes in the kitchen – take boxes away or store in a refrigerated area.
Seal any gaps below doors.
Reduce Habitat
Inspect the entire establishment – inside and out.
Suggest physical modifications that may help to eliminate pest behavior.
BG-30 Food Service Facilities
September 2014 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 6 of 8 Industrial and Commercial
www.casqa.org
Suggest changes in food storage or cleanup practices to eliminate food sources for pests.
Place boric acid powder in wall voids.
Seal cracks and crevices.
Monitor for Pests
Use sticky traps to monitor how well the pest control program is working. Pests caught in the traps warn of a possible problem. When hiring a pest control service, look for a company that provides Integrated Pest Management (IPM) services.
Use Baits First
Use baits for controlling pests. Remove bait when pests are gone, or else the bait may attract more pests.
Use chemicals only as a last resort. If absolutely necessary, choose lesstoxic chemicals, and ask the pest service to provide label information. Apply pesticides only if necessary, not on a regular schedule. Follow label directions. Do not apply pesticides around floor drains, sinks, or food.
Purchasing
Use non-disposable products. Serve food on ceramic dishware rather than paper, plastic or Styrofoam, and use cloth napkins rather than paper ones. If you must use disposable products, use paper instead of Styrofoam.
Buy the least toxic products available:
Look for “non-toxic,” “non-petroleum based,” “free of ammonia, phosphates, dye, or perfume,” or “readily biodegradable” on the label. Don’t assume biodegradable products are safe.
Biodegradable means the product will eventually break down, but it may harm the environment in the meantime.
Avoid chlorinated compounds, petroleum distillates, phenols, formaldehyde, and caustic or acidic products.
Use water-based products.
Look for and purchase “recycled” and “recyclable” containers. By doing so, you help ensure a use for the recyclable materials that people collect and recycle.
Education
and
Training
Employees can help prevent pollution when urban runoff training is included in employee orientations and reviews.
Train all employees upon hiring and annually thereafter. Use a training log to document employee training.
BG-30 Food Service Facilities
September 2014 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 7 of 8 Industrial and Commercial
www.casqa.org
Post information about or labels for BMPs where employees and customers can see them.
Remember the facility is liable for the behavior of contractors. Be sure all contractors hired to clean inside or outside are aware of and implement these BMPs.
Explain BMPs to other food businesses through your business associations or chambers of commerce.
Treatment Control BMPs
If treatment controls are installed at the facility, see Section 4 of this Handbook for information on inspecting and maintaining the BMPs.
For information on designing treatment controls, see Section 5 of the Development and Redevelopment Handbook.

Dear Mr. Goodell:
This geotechnical report is provided for design and construction of the proposed commercial complex located at 30260 Date Palm Drive in Cathedral City, California. Our geotechnical investigation was conducted in response to your request for our services. The enclosed report describes our soil engineering investigation and presents our professional opinions regarding geotechnical conditions at the site to be considered in the design and construction of the project.
The findings of this study indicate the site is underlain by sands to maximum depth penetrated. The near surface soils at the project site are expected to be non-expansive. The subsurface soils are medium dense to dense in nature. Groundwater was not encountered in the borings during the time of field exploration. Historic groundwater levels ranged from 130 to 170 feet within the past 65 years in the vicinity of the project site.
Elevated sulfate and chloride levels were not encountered in the soil samples tested for this study.
The soil is low corrosive to metal. We recommend a minimum of 2,500 psi concrete of Type II Portland Cement with a maximum water/cement ratio of 0.60 (by weight) should be used for concrete placed in contact with native soils of this project.
We did not encounter soil conditions that would preclude implementation of the proposed project provided the professional opinions contained in this report are implemented in the design and construction of this project. Our findings, professional opinions, and application options are related only through reading the full report, and are best evaluated with the active participation of the engineer of record who developed them.

INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Description
This report presents the findings of our geotechnical exploration for the proposed commercial and residential complex located at 30260 Date Palm Drive in the city of Cathedral City, California (See Vicinity Map, Plate A-1). The proposed development will consist of urgent care, senior housing, hotel, restaurant, and administration building on 11 acres of vacant desert land. A site plan for the proposed development was provided by Self Reliance, Inc., dated May 3, 2017.
The structures are planned to consist of continuous wall and column concrete footings, concrete slabs-on-grade and wood-frame construction. Footing loads at exterior bearing walls are estimated at 1 to 10 kips per lineal foot. Column loads are estimated to range from 5 to 80 kips. If structural loads exceed those stated above, we should be notified so we may evaluate their impact on foundation settlement and bearing capacity. Site development will include building pad preparation, underground utilities installation, on-site and off-site street construction, concrete driveway and sidewalk placement.

METHODS OF INVESTIGATION
2.1 Field Exploration
Subsurface exploration was performed on August 31, 2017 using 2R Drilling of Ontario California to advance five (5) borings to depths of 21.5 to 51.5 feet below existing ground surface. The borings were advanced with a truck-mounted, CME 75 drill rig using 8-inch diameter, hollow-stem, continuous-flight augers. The approximate boring locations were established in the field and plotted on the site map by sighting to discernable site features. The boring locations are shown on the Site and Exploration Plan (Plate A-2).
Additional subsurface exploration was performed on September 14, 2017 by using a backhoe to excavate six (6) test pits to an approximate depth of 15 feet below the existing ground surface. The test pit locations are shown on the Site and Exploration Plan (Plate A-2). Bulk samples driven into undisturbed soil were obtained at selected depths in the test pits. A nuclear densometer (ASTM D6938) was used to evaluate in-situ densities and natural moisture content at selected depths in the upper 5 feet of the backhoe pits. The test pits were located by taped or paced measurements and should be considered approximate.
After logging and sampling the soil, the exploratory boring and test pits were backfilled with the excavated material. The backfill was loosely placed and was not compacted to the requirements specified for engineered fill. The backhoe pits shall be located during rough grading of the site to properly re-compact the backfill.
Our senior engineer maintained logs of the borings and test pits during exploration. The logs were edited in final form after a review of retrieved samples and the field and laboratory data. The boring and test pit logs are presented on Plates B-1 through B-11 in Appendix B. Soils encountered have been classified according to the Unified Soil Classification System. A key to the boring and test pit logs is presented on Plate B-12. The stratification lines shown on the subsurface logs represent the approximate boundaries between the various strata. However, the transition from one stratum to another may be gradual over some range of depth.
Loving Care Assisted Living – Cathedral City, CA LCI Report No. LP17122 LandMark Consultants, Inc. Page 4
2.2 Laboratory Testing
Laboratory tests were conducted on selected bulk and relatively undisturbed soil samples to aid in classification and evaluation of selected engineering properties of the site soils. The tests were conducted in general conformance to the procedures of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) or other standardized methods as referenced below. The laboratory testing program consisted of the following tests:
Particle Size Analyses (ASTM D422) – used for soil classification and liquefaction evaluation.
Collapse Potential (ASTM D5333) – used for hydro-consolidation potential evaluation. Unit Dry Densities (ASTM D2937) – used for insitu soil parameters Moisture Contents (ASTM D2216) – used for insitu soil parameters Moisture-Density Relationship (ASTM D1557) – used for soil compaction determinations. Chemical Analyses (soluble sulfates & chlorides, pH, and resistivity) (Caltrans Methods) – used for concrete mix evaluations and corrosion protection requirements.
The laboratory test results are presented on the subsurface logs and on Plates C-1 through C-7 in Appendix C.
Engineering parameters of soil strength, compressibility and relative density utilized for developing design criteria provided within this report were either extrapolated from correlations with the data obtained from the field and laboratory testing program.

DISCUSSION
3.1 Site Conditions
The project site is rectangular shaped in plain view, is relatively flat-lying and consists of approximately 11 acres of vacant land. The site is bounded by Rosemount Road to the south and Date Palm Drive to the west, residential homes to the east, and the Northgate Community Church to the north. Adjacent properties are flat-lying and are approximately at the same elevation with this site.
The project site lies at an elevation of approximately 360 to 370 feet above mean sea level (MSL) in the Coachella Valley region of the California low desert. Annual rainfall in this arid region is less than 4 inches per year with four months of average summertime temperatures above 100 oF. Winter temperatures are mild, seldom reaching freezing.
3.2 Geologic Setting
The project site is located in the Coachella Valley portion of the Salton Trough physiographic province. The Salton Trough is a geologic structural depression resulting from large scale regional faulting. The trough is bounded on the northeast by the San Andreas Fault and Chocolate Mountains and the southwest by the Peninsular Range and faults of the San Jacinto Fault Zone. The Salton Trough represents the northward extension of the Gulf of California, containing both marine and non-marine sediments since the Miocene Epoch. Tectonic activity that formed the trough continues at a high rate as evidenced by deformed young sedimentary deposits and high levels of seismicity.
Figure 1 shows the location of the site in relation to regional faults and physiographic features.
The surrounding regional geology includes the Peninsular Ranges (Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains) to the south and west, the Salton Basin to the southeast, and the Transverse Ranges (Little San Bernardino and Orocopia Mountains) to the north and east. Hundreds of feet to several thousand feet of Quaternary fluvial, lacustrine, and aeolian soil deposits underlie the Coachella Valley.
Loving Care Assisted Living – Cathedral City, CA LCI Report No. LP17122 LandMark Consultants, Inc. Page 6
The southeastern part of the Coachella Valley lies below sea level. In the geologic past, the ancient Lake Cahuilla submerged the area. Calcareous tufa deposits may be observed along the ancient shoreline as high as elevation 45 to 50 feet MSL along the Santa Rosa Mountains from La Quinta southward. Lacustrine (lake bed) deposits comprise the subsurface soils over much of the eastern Coachella Valley with alluvial outwash along the flanks of the valley.
3.3 Faulting
The project site is located in the seismically active Coachella Valley of southern California with numerous mapped faults of the San Andreas Fault System traversing the region. We have performed a computer-aided search of known faults or seismic zones that lie within a 62-mile (100 kilometer) radius of the project site (Table 1).
A fault map illustrating known active faults relative to the site is presented on Figure 1, Regional Fault Map. Figure 2 shows the project site in relation to local faults. The criterion for fault classification adopted by the California Geological Survey defines Earthquake Fault Zones along active or potentially active faults. An active fault is one that has ruptured during Holocene time (roughly within the last 11,000 years). A fault that has ruptured during the last 1.8 million years (Quaternary time), but has not been proven by direct evidence to have not moved within Holocene time is considered to be potentially active. A fault that has not moved during Quaternary time is considered to be inactive.
Review of the current Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone maps (CGS, 2000a) indicates that the nearest mapped Earthquake Fault Zone is the San Andreas Fault located approximately 3.7 miles northeast of the project site. 3.4 General Ground Motion Analysis The project site is considered likely to be subjected to moderate to strong ground motion from earthquakes in the region. Ground motions are dependent primarily on the earthquake magnitude and distance to the seismogenic (rupture) zone.

Acceleration magnitudes also are dependent upon attenuation by rock and soil deposits, direction of rupture and type of fault; therefore, ground motions may vary considerably in the same general area.
CBC General Ground Motion Parameters: The 2016 CBC general ground motion parameters are based on the Risk-Targeted Maximum Considered Earthquake (MCER). The U.S. Geological Survey “U.S. Seismic Design Maps Web Application” (USGS, 2017) was used to obtain the site coefficients and adjusted maximum considered earthquake spectral response acceleration parameters. The site soils have been classified as Site Class D (stiff soil profile). Design spectral response acceleration parameters are defined as the earthquake ground motions that are two-thirds (2/3) of the corresponding MCER ground motions. Design earthquake ground motion parameters are provided in Table 2. A Risk Category II was determined using Table 1604.5 and the Seismic Design Category is E since S1 is greater than 0.75.
The Maximum Considered Earthquake Geometric Mean (MCEG) peak ground acceleration (PGAM) value was determined from the “U.S. Seismic Design Maps Web Application” (USGS, 2017) for liquefaction and seismic settlement analysis in accordance with 2016 CBC Section 1803.5.12 and CGS Note 48 (PGAM = FPGA*PGA). A PGAM value of 0.85g is used for liquefaction settlement analysis.
3.5 Seismic and Other Hazards
► Groundshaking. The primary seismic hazard at the project site is the potential for strong groundshaking during earthquakes along the San Andreas Fault. A further discussion of groundshaking follows in Section 3.4.
► Surface Rupture. The project site does not lie within a State of California, Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. Surface fault rupture is considered to be unlikely at the project site because of the well-delineated fault lines through the Coachella Valley as shown on USGS and CDMG maps.
However, because of the high tectonic activity and deep alluvium of the region, we cannot preclude the potential for surface rupture on undiscovered or new faults that may underlie the site. ► Liquefaction. Liquefaction is unlikely to be a potential hazard at the site, since the groundwater is believed to be deeper than 50 feet (the maximum depth that liquefaction is known to occur).

Other Potential Geologic Hazards.
► Landsliding. The hazard of landsliding is unlikely due to the regional planar topography. No ancient landslides are shown on geologic maps of the region and no indications of landslides were observed during our site investigation.
► Volcanic hazards. The site is not located in proximity to any known volcanically active area and the risk of volcanic hazards is considered very low.
► Tsunamis, sieches, and flooding. The site does not lie near any large bodies of water, so the threat of tsunami, sieches, or other seismically-induced flooding is unlikely. The project site is located within a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Other Flood Areas Zone X (as shown on Plate A-6).
► Expansive soil. The near surface soils at the project site consist of sands which are non-expansive in nature.
3.6 Subsurface Soil
Subsurface soils encountered during the field exploration conducted on August 31 and September 14, 2017 consist of medium dense to dense sands to maximum depth penetrated. The near surface soils are non-expansive in nature. The subsurface logs (Plates B-1 through B-11) depict the stratigraphic relationships of the various soil types.
3.7 Groundwater
Groundwater was not encountered in the test pits during the time of exploration. According to Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) readings of groundwater levels from nearby wells, groundwater is located at a depth of approximately 230 feet below the ground surface in the vicinity of the project site.
There is uncertainty in the accuracy of short-term water level measurements, particularly in finegrained soil. Groundwater levels may fluctuate with precipitation, irrigation of adjacent properties, drainage, and site grading. The groundwater level noted should not be interpreted to represent an accurate or permanent condition.
Loving Care Assisted Living – Cathedral City, CA LCI Report No. LP17122 LandMark Consultants, Inc. Page 9
Based on the general topography, groundwater flow directions are estimated to be toward the southeast within the subject site area. Flow directions may also vary locally in the vicinity of the site.
Historic groundwater records in the vicinity of the project site indicate that groundwater has fluctuated between 130 to 170 feet below the ground surface over the last 65 years according to the Coachella Valley Water District and to a report "Coachella Valley Investigation" conducted by the Department of Water Resources, published July 1964.
3.8 Hydro-consolidation
In arid climatic regions, granular soils have a potential to collapse upon wetting. This collapse (hydro-consolidation) phenomena is the result of the lubrication of soluble cements (carbonates) in the soil matrix causing the soil to densify from its loose configuration during deposition.
Collapse potential tests (Plates C-7) performed on a remolded sample from the site indicated a slight risk of collapse upon saturation. Therefore, development of building foundation is not required to include provisions for mitigating the hydro-consolidation caused by soil saturation from landscape irrigation or broken utility lines.
3.9 Regional Subsidence
The project is located in the Coachella Valley which has experienced up to 12 inches of regional subsidence between 1996 and 2005 (USGS, 2007). The risk of regional subsidence at the project site is considered low.
Loving Care Assisted Living – Cathedral City, CA LCI Report No. LP17122 LandMark Consultants, Inc. Page 10
Section 4
DESIGN CRITERIA
4.1 Site Preparation
Pre-grade Meeting: Prior to site preparation, a meeting should be held at the site with as a minimum, the owner’s representative, grading contractor and geotechnical engineer in attendance.
Clearing and Grubbing: All surface improvements, debris and/or vegetation including grass, trees, and weeds on the site at the time of construction should be removed from the construction area.
Root balls should be completely excavated. Organic stripping should be hauled from the site and not used as fill. Any trash, construction debris, concrete slabs, old pavement, and buried obstructions such as old foundations and utility lines exposed during rough grading should be traced to the limits of the foreign materials and removed. Any excavations resulting from site clearing and grubbing should be dish-shaped to the lowest depth of disturbance and backfilled with engineered fill.
Building Pad Preparation: The existing surface soil within the building pad areas should be removed to 24 inches below the lowest foundation grade or 48 inches below the original grade (whichever is deeper), extending five feet beyond all exterior wall/column lines (including adjacent concreted areas). The exposed sub-grade should be scarified to a depth of 8 inches, uniformly moisture conditioned to at least 2% over optimum moisture, and re-compacted to at least 90% of ASTM D1557 maximum density
The on-site soils are suitable for use as compacted fill and utility trench backfill. Imported fill soil (if required) should similar to onsite soil or non-expansive, granular soil meeting the USCS classifications of SM, SP-SM, or SW-SM with a maximum rock size of 3 inches. The geotechnical engineer should approve imported fill soil sources before hauling material to the site. Native, stock pile and imported materials should be placed in lifts no greater than 8 inches in loose thickness, uniformly moisture conditioned to at least 2% over optimum moisture, and re-compacted to at least 90% of ASTM D1557 maximum density.
Loving Care Assisted Living – Cathedral City, CA LCI Report No. LP17122 LandMark Consultants, Inc. Page 11
In areas other than the building pad which are to receive concrete slabs and asphalt concrete pavement, the ground surface should be over-excavated to a depth of 12 inches, uniformly moisture conditioned to at least 2% over optimum moisture, and re-compacted to at least 90% of ASTM D1557 maximum density.
Trench Backfill: On-site soil free of debris, vegetation, and other deleterious matter may be suitable for use as utility trench backfill. Backfill within roadways should be placed in layers not more that 6 inches in thickness, uniformly moisture conditioned to at least 2% over optimum moisture and mechanically compacted to a minimum of 90% of the ASTM D1557 maximum dry density except for the top 12 inches of the trench which shall be compacted to at least 95%. Native backfill should only be placed and compacted after encapsulating buried pipes with suitable bedding and pipe envelope material.
Pipe envelope/bedding should either be clean sand (Sand Equivalent SE>30) or crushed rock when encountering groundwater. A geotextile filter fabric (Mirafi 140N or equivalent) should be used to encapsulate the crushed rock to reduce the potential for in-washing of fines into the gravel void space. Precautions should be taken in the compaction of the backfill to avoid damage to the pipes and structures.
Moisture Control and Drainage: The moisture condition of the building pad should be maintained during trenching and utility installation until concrete is placed or should be rewetted before initiating delayed construction. If soil drying is noted, a 2 to 3 inches depth of water may be used in the bottom of footings to restore footing subgrade moisture and reduce potential edge lift.
Adequate site drainage is essential to future performance of the project. Infiltration of excess irrigation water and stormwaters can adversely affect the performance of the subsurface soil at the site. Positive drainage should be maintained away from all structures (5% for 5 feet minimum across unpaved areas) to prevent ponding and subsequent saturation of the native soil. Gutters and downspouts may be considered as a means to convey water away from foundations. If landscape irrigation is allowed next to the building, drip irrigation systems or lined planter boxes should be used. The subgrade soil should be maintained in a moist, but not saturated state, and not allowed to dry out. Drainage should be maintained without ponding.
Loving Care Assisted Living – Cathedral City, CA LCI Report No. LP17122 LandMark Consultants, Inc. Page 12
Observation and Density Testing: All site preparation and fill placement should be continuously observed and tested by a representative of a qualified geotechnical engineering firm. Full-time observation services during the excavation and scarification process is necessary to detect undesirable materials or conditions and soft areas that may be encountered in the construction area.
The geotechnical firm that provides observation and testing during construction shall assume the responsibility of "geotechnical engineer of record" and, as such, shall perform additional tests and investigation as necessary to satisfy themselves as to the site conditions and the recommendations for site development.
Auxiliary Structures Foundation Preparation: Auxiliary structures such as free standing or retaining walls should have the existing soil beneath the structure foundation prepared in the manner recommended for the building pad except the preparation needed only to extend 18 inches below and beyond the footing.
4.2 Foundations and Settlements
Shallow column footings and continuous wall footings are suitable to support the structures provided they are founded on a layer of properly prepared and compacted soil as described in Section 4.1.
The foundations may be designed using an allowable soil bearing pressure of 1,800 psf. The allowable soil pressure may be increased by 20% for each foot of embedment depth in excess of 18 inches and by one-third for short term loads induced by winds or seismic events. The maximum allowable soil pressure at increased embedment depths shall not exceed 2,800 psf.
All exterior and interior foundations should be embedded a minimum of 18 inches below the building support pad or lowest adjacent final grade, whichever is deeper. Continuous wall footings should have a minimum width of 12 inches. Column footings should have a minimum width of 24 inches and should not be structurally isolated. Recommended concrete reinforcement and sizing for all footings should be provided by the structural engineer.
Resistance to horizontal loads will be developed by passive earth pressure on the sides of footings and frictional resistance developed along the bases of footings and concrete slabs. Passive resistance to lateral earth pressure may be calculated using an equivalent fluid pressure of 300 pcf to resist lateral loadings.
Loving Care Assisted Living – Cathedral City, CA LCI Report No. LP17122 LandMark Consultants, Inc. Page 13
The top one foot of embedment should not be considered in computing passive resistance unless the adjacent area is confined by a slab or pavement. An allowable friction coefficient of 0.4 may also be used at the base of the footings to resist lateral loading.
Foundation movement under the estimated static (non-seismic) loadings and static site conditions are estimated to not exceed ¾ inch with differential movement of about two-thirds of total movement for the loading assumptions stated above when the subgrade preparation guidelines given above are followed.
4.3 Slabs-On-Grade
Concrete slabs and flatwork should be a minimum of 4 inches thick. Concrete slabs and flatworks should be determined by the design engineer. Concrete floor slabs may either be monolithically placed with the foundation or dowelled after footing placement. The concrete slabs may be placed on granular subgrade that has been compacted at least 90% relative compaction (ASTM D1557).
American Concrete Institute (ACI) guidelines (ACI 302.1R-04 Chapter 3, Section 3.2.3) provide recommendations regarding the use of moisture barriers beneath concrete slabs. The concrete floor slabs should be underlain by a 10-mil polyethylene vapor retarder that works as a capillary break to reduce moisture migration into the slab section. All laps and seams should be overlapped 6-inches or as recommended by the manufacturer. The vapor retarder should be protected from puncture.
The joints and penetrations should be sealed with the manufacturer’s recommended adhesive, pressure-sensitive tape, or both. The vapor retarder should extend a minimum of 12 inches into the footing excavations. The vapor retarder should be covered by 4 inches of clean sand (Sand Equivalent SE>30) unless placed on 2.5 feet of granular fill, in which case, the vapor retarder may lie directly on the granular fill with 2 inches of clean sand cover.
Placing sand over the vapor retarder may increase moisture transmission through the slab, because it provides a reservoir for bleed water from the concrete to collect. The sand placed over the vapor retarder may also move and mound prior to concrete placement, resulting in an irregular slab thickness.
Loving Care Assisted Living – Cathedral City, CA LCI Report No. LP17122 LandMark Consultants, Inc. Page 14
For areas with moisture sensitive flooring materials, ACI recommends that concrete slabs be placed without a sand cover directly over the vapor retarder, provided that the concrete mix uses a lowwater cement ratio and concrete curing methods are employed to compensate for release of bleed water through the top of the slab. The vapor retarder should have a minimum thickness of 15-mil (Stego-Wrap or equivalent).
Control joints should be provided in all concrete slabs-on-grade at a maximum spacing (in feet) of 2 to 3 times the slab thickness (in inches) as recommended by American Concrete Institute (ACI) guidelines. All joints should form approximately square patterns to reduce randomly oriented contraction cracks. Contraction joints in the slabs should be tooled at the time of the pour or sawcut (¼ of slab depth) within 6 to 8 hours of concrete placement. Construction (cold) joints in foundations and area flatwork should either be thickened butt-joints with dowels or a thickened keyed-joint designed to resist vertical deflection at the joint. All joints in flatwork should be sealed to prevent moisture, vermin, or foreign material intrusion. Precautions should be taken to prevent curling of slabs in this arid desert region (refer to ACI guidelines).
All independent concrete flatworks should be underlain by 12 inches of moisture conditioned and compacted soils. All flatwork should be jointed in square patterns and at irregularities in shape at a maximum spacing of 10 feet or the least width of the sidewalk.
4.4 Concrete Mixes and Corrosivity
Selected chemical analyses for corrosivity were conducted on bulk samples of the near surface soil from the project site (Plate C-5). The native soils tested were shown to have low levels of sulfate and chloride ion concentrations. Resistivity determinations on the soil indicate low potential for metal loss because of electrochemical corrosion processes.
A minimum of 2,500 psi concrete of Type II Portland Cement with a maximum water/cement ratio of 0.60 (by weight) should be used for concrete placed in contact with native soil on this project (sitework including streets, sidewalks, driveways, patios, and foundations).
Loving Care Assisted Living – Cathedral City, CA LCI Report No. LP17122 LandMark Consultants, Inc. Page 15
A minimum concrete cover of three (3) inches is recommended around steel reinforcing or embedded components (anchor bolts, hold-downs, etc.) exposed to native soil or landscape water (to 18 inches above grade). The concrete should also be thoroughly vibrated during placement.
Landmark does not practice corrosion engineering. We recommend that a qualified corrosion engineer evaluate the corrosion potential on metal construction materials and concrete at the site.
4.5 Excavations
All trench excavations should conform to CalOSHA requirements for Type C soil. The contractor is solely responsible for the safety of workers entering trenches. Temporary excavations with depths of 4 feet or less may be cut nearly vertical for short duration. Temporary slopes should be no steeper than 1.5:1 (horizontal: vertical). Sandy soil slopes should be kept moist, but not saturated, to reduce the potential of raveling or sloughing.
Trench excavations deeper than 4 feet will require shoring or slope inclinations in conformance to CAL/OSHA regulations for Type C soil. Surcharge loads of stockpiled soil or construction materials should be set back from the top of the slope a minimum distance equal to the height of the slope. All permanent slopes should not be steeper than 3:1 to reduce wind and rain erosion.
Protected slopes with ground cover may be as steep as 2:1. However, maintenance with motorized equipment may not be possible at this inclination.
4.6 Lateral Earth Pressures
Earth retaining structures, such as retaining walls, should be designed to resist the soil pressure imposed by the retained soil mass. Walls with granular drained backfill may be designed for an assumed static earth pressure equivalent to that exerted by a fluid weighing 35 pcf for unrestrained (active) conditions (able to rotate 0.1% of wall height), and 50 pcf for restrained (at-rest) conditions.
These values should be verified at the actual wall locations during construction.
4.7 Seismic Design
Loving Care Assisted Living – Cathedral City, CA LCI Report No. LP17122 LandMark Consultants, Inc. Page 16
This site is located in the seismically active southern California area and the site structures are subject to strong ground shaking due to potential fault movements along the San Andreas fault.
Engineered design and earthquake-resistant construction are the common solutions to increase safety and development of seismic areas. Designs should comply with the latest edition of the CBC for Site Class D using the seismic coefficients given in Section 3.4 of this report.
4.8 Permanent Slopes
Cut and Fill slopes should be constructed generally no steeper than 3 (H):1(V) to permit easy landscape maintenance and provide erosional stability form wind or rain while unprotected without landscape cover. Slope with a 2(H):1(V) gradient are permitted provided, it is recognized that such slopes are more prone to erosion and so not permit landscape maintenance by motorized riding equipment, and require landscape cover to retard erosion.
4.9 Pavements
Pavements should be designed according to CALTRANS or other acceptable methods. Traffic indices were not provided by the project engineer or owner; therefore, we have provided structural sections for several traffic indices for comparative evaluation. The public agency or design engineer should decide the appropriate traffic index for the site. Maintenance of proper drainage is necessary to prolong the service life of the pavements.
Based on the current State of California CALTRANS method, an estimated R-value of 60 for the subgrade soil and assumed traffic indices, the following table provides our estimates for asphaltic concrete (AC) pavement sections.

WHEREAS, at the time of initial approval of development project known as Cathedral Cove Center within the Property described herein, the City required the project to employ Best Management Practices, hereinafter referred to as "BMPs", to minimize pollutants in urban runoff; WHEREAS, the Owner has chosen to install and/or implement BMPs as described in the Water Quality Management Plan, on file with the City, hereinafter referred to as "WQMP", to minimize pollutants in urban runoff and to minimize other adverse impacts of urban runoff; WHEREAS, said WQMP has been certified by the Owner and reviewed and approved by the City; WHEREAS, said BMPs, with installation and/or implementation on private property and draining only private property, are part of a private facility with all maintenance or replacement, therefore, the sole responsibility of the Owner in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; WHEREAS, the Owner is aware that periodic and continuous maintenance, including, but not necessarily limited to, filter material replacement and sediment removal, is required to assure peak performance of all BMPs in the WQMP and that, furthermore, such maintenance activity will require compliance with all Local, State, or Federal laws and regulations, including those pertaining to confined space and waste disposal methods, in effect at the time such maintenance occurs; NOW THEREFORE, it is mutually stipulated and agreed as follows:
1. Owner hereby provides the City of City's designee complete access, of any duration, to the BMPs and their immediate vicinity at any time, upon reasonable notice, or in the event of emergency, as determined by City's Director of Public Works no advance notice, for the purpose of inspection, sampling, testing of the Device, and in case of emergency, to undertake all necessary repairs or other preventative measures at owner's expense as provided in paragraph 3 below. City shall make every effort at all times to minimize or avoid interference with Owner's use of the Property.
2. Owner shall use its best efforts diligently to maintain all BMPs in a manner assuring peak performance at all times. All reasonable precautions shall be exercised by Owner and Owner's representative or contractor in the removal and extraction of any material(s) from the BMPs and the ultimate disposal of the material(s) in a manner consistent with all relevant laws and regulations in effect at the time. As may be requested from time to time by the City, the Owner shall provide the City with documentation identifying the material(s) removed, the quantity, and disposal destination.
3. In the event Owner, or its successors or assigns, fails to accomplish the necessary maintenance contemplated by this Agreement, within five (5) days of being given written notice by the City, the City is hereby authorized to cause any maintenance necessary to be done and charge the entire cost and expense to the Owner or Owner's successors or assigns, including administrative costs, October 2023

4. The City may require the owner to post security in form and for a time period satisfactory to the city to guarantee the performance of the obligations state herein. Should the Owner fail to perform the obligations under the Agreement, the City may, in the case of a cash bond, act for the Owner using the proceeds from it, or in the case of a surety bond, require the sureties to perform the obligations of the Agreement. As an additional remedy, the Director may withdraw any previous Urban Runoff-related approval with respect to the property on which BMPs have been installed and/or implemented until such time as Owner repays to City its reasonable costs incurred in accordance with paragraph 3 above.
5. This agreement shall be recorded in the Office of the Recorder of Riverside County, California, at the expense of the Owner and shall constitute notice to all successors and assigns of the title to said Property of the obligation herein set forth, and also a lien in such amount as will fully reimburse the City, including interest as herein above set forth, subject to foreclosure in event of default in payment.
6. In event of legal action occasioned by any default or action of the Owner, or its successors or assigns, then the Owner and its successors or assigns agree(s) to pay all costs incurred by the City in enforcing the terms of this Agreement, including reasonable attorney's fees and costs, and that the same shall become a part of the lien against said Property.

City of Cathedral City, CA Introduction
1 1.0 Introduction
1.1 Purpose of Analysis and Study Objectives
This noise assessment was prepared to evaluate the potential noise impacts for the project study area and to recommend noise mitigation measures, if necessary, to minimize the potential noise impacts. The assessment was conducted and compared to the noise standards set forth by the Federal, State and Local agencies. Consistent with the City’s Noise Guidelines, the project must demonstrate compliance to the applicable noise criterion as outlined within the City’s Noise Element and Municipal Code.
The following is provided in this report:
• A description of the study area and the proposed project • Information regarding the fundamentals of noise
• A description of the local noise guidelines and standards • An analysis of traffic noise impacts to and from the project site • An analysis of construction noise impacts
1.2 Site Location and Study Area
The project site is located at the east side of Date Palm Drive between 30th Avenue and Mccallum Way in Cathedral City, California, as shown in Exhibit A. The site is currently zoned as general commercial and is proposed to be used as medium density residential use. The site is currently vacant and is surrounded by a vacant general commercial use to the south, existing low density residential to the north and east, and general commercial to the west across Date Palm Drive.
1.3 Proposed Project Description
The Project proposes a medium residential-use development consisting of 204 units, on 10.8 acres. As a worst-case scenario, this assessment assumes the project is built-out in one (1) complete phase.
Construction activities within the Project area will consist of on-site grading, building, paving, and architectural coating.
This study assesses both the traffic and short-term stationary noise to and from the project site and compares the results to the applicable City noise limits. The primary source of traffic noise propagates from Date Palm Drive. The primary source of short-term stationary noise propagates from construction equipment to be deployed in the area for construction activities. The site plan used for this is illustrated in Exhibit B.

4 2.0 Fundamentals of Noise
This section of the report provides basic information about noise and presents some of the terms used within the report.
2.1 Sound, Noise and Acoustics
Sound is a disturbance created by a moving or vibrating source and is capable of being detected by the hearing organs. Sound may be thought of as mechanical energy of a moving object transmitted by pressure waves through a medium to a human ear. For traffic, or stationary noise, the medium of concern is air. Noise is defined as sound that is loud, unpleasant, unexpected, or unwanted.
2.2 Frequency and Hertz
A continuous sound is described by its frequency
(pitch) and its amplitude (loudness). Frequency
relates to the number of pressure oscillations per
second. Low-frequency sounds are low in pitch (bass
sounding) and high-frequency sounds are high in
pitch (squeak). These oscillations per second (cycles)
are commonly referred to as Hertz (Hz). The human
ear can hear from the bass pitch starting out at 20 Hz
all the way to the high pitch of 20,000 Hz.
2.3 Sound Pressure Levels and Decibels
The amplitude of a sound determines it loudness.
The loudness of sound increases or decreases as the
amplitude increases or decreases. Sound pressure
amplitude is measure in units of micro-Newton per
square inch meter (N/m2), also called micro-Pascal
(µPa). One µPa is approximately one hundred
billionths (0.00000000001) of normal atmospheric
pressure. Sound pressure level (SPL or Lp) is used to
describe in logarithmic units the ratio of actual
sound pressures to a reference pressure squared.
These units are called decibels abbreviated dB. Exhibit C illustrates references sound levels for different noise sources.
2.4 Addition of Decibels
Because decibels are on a logarithmic scale, sound pressure levels cannot be added or subtracted by simple plus or minus addition. When two sounds or equal SPL are combined, they will produce an SPL 3 dB greater than the original single SPL. In other words, sound energy must be doubled to produce a 3 dB increase. If two sounds differ by approximately 10 dB, the higher sound level is the predominant sound.
Exhibit C: Typical A-Weighted Noise Levels

5 2.5 Human Response to Changes in Noise Levels
In general, the healthy human ear is most sensitive to sounds between 1,000 Hz and 5,000 Hz, (Aweighted scale) and it perceives a sound within that range as being more intense than a sound with a higher or lower frequency with the same magnitude. For purposes of this report as well as with most environmental documents, the A-scale weighting is typically reported in terms of A-weighted decibel (dBA). Typically, the human ear can barely perceive the change in noise level of 3 dB. A change in 5 dB is readily perceptible, and a change in 10 dB is perceived as being twice or half as loud. As previously discussed, a doubling of sound energy results in a 3 dB increase in sound, which means that a doubling of sound energy (e.g. doubling the volume of traffic on a highway) would result in a barely perceptible change in sound level.

2.6 Noise Descriptors
Noise in our daily environment fluctuates over time. Some noise levels occur in regular patterns, others are random. Some noise levels are constant while others are sporadic. Noise descriptors were created to describe the different time-varying noise levels.
A-Weighted Sound Level: The sound pressure level in decibels as measured on a sound level meter using the A-weighted filter network. The A-weighting filter de-emphasizes the very low and very high frequency components of the sound in a manner similar to the response of the human ear. A numerical method of rating human judgment of loudness.
Ambient Noise Level: The composite of noise from all sources, near and far. In this context, the ambient noise level constitutes the normal or existing level of environmental noise at a given location.
Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL): The average equivalent A-weighted sound level during a 24- hour day, obtained after addition of five (5) decibels to sound levels in the evening from 7:00 to 10:00 PM and after addition of ten (10) decibels to sound levels in the night before 7:00 AM and after 10:00 PM.
Decibel (dB): A unit for measuring the amplitude of a sound, equal to 20 times the logarithm to the base 10 of the ratio of the pressure of the sound measured to the reference pressure, which is 20 micro-pascals. dB(A): A-weighted sound level (see definition above).
Date Palm Apartments - Noise
Noise Impact Study
City of Cathedral City, CA Fundamentals of Noise
6 Equivalent Sound Level (LEQ): The sound level corresponding to a steady noise level over a given sample period with the same amount of acoustic energy as the actual time varying noise level. The energy average noise level during the sample period.
Habitable Room: Any room meeting the requirements of the Uniform Building Code or other applicable regulations which is intended to be used for sleeping, living, cooking or dining purposes, excluding such enclosed spaces as closets, pantries, bath or toilet rooms, service rooms, connecting corridors, laundries, unfinished attics, foyers, storage spaces, cellars, utility rooms and similar spaces.
L(n): The A-weighted sound level exceeded during a certain percentage of the sample time. For example, L10 in the sound level exceeded 10 percent of the sample time. Similarly L50, L90 and L99, etc.
Noise: Any unwanted sound or sound which is undesirable because it interferes with speech and hearing, or is intense enough to damage hearing, or is otherwise annoying. The State Noise Control Act defines noise as "...excessive undesirable sound...".
Outdoor Living Area: Outdoor spaces that are associated with residential land uses typically used for passive recreational activities or other noise-sensitive uses. Such spaces include patio areas, barbecue areas, jacuzzi areas, etc. associated with residential uses; outdoor patient recovery or resting areas associated with hospitals, convalescent hospitals, or rest homes; outdoor areas associated with places of worship which have a significant role in services or other noise-sensitive activities; and outdoor school facilities routinely used for educational purposes which may be adversely impacted by noise. Outdoor areas usually not included in this definition are: front yard areas, driveways, greenbelts, maintenance areas and storage areas associated with residential land uses; exterior areas at hospitals that are not used for patient activities; outdoor areas associated with places of worship and principally used for short-term social gatherings; and, outdoor areas associated with school facilities that are not typically associated with educational uses prone to adverse noise impacts (for example, school play yard areas).
Percent Noise Levels: See L(n).
Sound Level (Noise Level): The weighted sound pressure level obtained by use of a sound level meter having a standard frequency-filter for attenuating part of the sound spectrum.
Sound Level Meter: An instrument, including a microphone, an amplifier, an output meter, and frequency weighting networks for the measurement and determination of noise and sound levels.
Single Event Noise Exposure Level (SENEL): The dB(A) level which, if it lasted for one second, would produce the same A-weighted sound energy as the actual event.
2.7 Traffic Noise Prediction
Noise levels associated with traffic depends on a variety of factors: (1) volume of traffic, (2) speed of traffic, (3) auto, medium truck (2–3 axle) and heavy truck percentage (4 axle and greater), and sound propagation. The greater the volume of traffic, higher speeds and truck percentages equate to a louder Date Palm Apartments - Noise

City of Cathedral City, CA Fundamentals of Noise
7 volume in noise. A doubling of the Average Daily Traffic (ADT) along a roadway will increase noise levels by approximately 3 dB; reasons for this are discussed in the sections above.
2.8 Sound Propagation
As sound propagates from a source it spreads geometrically. Sound from a small, localized source (i.e., a point source) radiates uniformly outward as it travels away from the source in a spherical pattern. The sound level attenuates at a rate of 6 dB per doubling of distance. The movement of vehicles down a roadway makes the source of the sound appear to propagate from a line (i.e., line source) rather than a point source. This line source results in the noise propagating from a roadway in a cylindrical spreading versus a spherical spreading that results from a point source. The sound level attenuates for a line source at a rate of 3 dB per doubling of distance.
As noise propagates from the source, it is affected by the ground and atmosphere. Noise models use hard site (reflective surfaces) and soft site (absorptive surfaces) to help calculate predicted noise levels.
Hard site conditions assume no excessive ground absorption between the noise source and the receiver.
Soft site conditions such as grass, soft dirt or landscaping attenuate noise at a rate of 1.5 dB per doubling of distance. When added to the geometric spreading, the excess ground attenuation results in an overall noise attenuation of 4.5 dB per doubling of distance for a line source and 7.5 dB per doubling of distance for a point source.
Research has demonstrated that atmospheric conditions can have a significant effect on noise levels when noise receivers are located 200 feet from a noise source. Wind, temperature, air humidity and turbulence can further impact have far sound can travel.

City of Cathedral City, CA Ground-Borne Vibration Fundamentals 8 3.0 Ground-Borne Vibration Fundamentals
3.1 Vibration Descriptors
Ground-borne vibrations consist of rapidly fluctuating motions within the ground that have an average motion of zero. The effects of ground-borne vibrations typically only cause a nuisance to people, but at extreme vibration levels, damage to buildings may occur. Although ground-borne vibration can be felt outdoors, it is typically only an annoyance to people indoors where the associated effects of the shaking of a building can be notable. Ground-borne noise is an effect of ground-borne vibration and only exists indoors, since it is produced from noise radiated from the motion of the walls and floors of a room and may also consist of the rattling of windows or dishes on shelves.
Several different methods are used to quantify vibration amplitude.
PPV – Known as the peak particle velocity (PPV) which is the maximum instantaneous peak in vibration velocity, typically given in inches per second.
RMS – Known as root mean squared (RMS) can be used to denote vibration amplitude VdB – A commonly used abbreviation to describe the vibration level (VdB) for a vibration source.
3.2 Vibration Perception
Typically, developed areas are continuously affected by vibration velocities of 50 VdB or lower. These continuous vibrations are not noticeable to humans whose threshold of perception is around 65 VdB.
Outdoor sources that may produce perceptible vibrations are usually caused by construction equipment, steel-wheeled trains, and traffic on rough roads, while smooth roads rarely produce perceptible groundborne noise or vibration. To counter the effects of ground-borne vibration, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) has published guidance relative to vibration impacts. According to the FTA, fragile buildings can be exposed to ground-borne vibration levels of 0.3 inches per second without experiencing structural damage.
3.3 Vibration Perception
There are three main types of vibration propagation: surface, compression, and shear waves. Surface waves, or Rayleigh waves, travel along the ground’s surface. These waves carry most of their energy along an expanding circular wave front, similar to ripples produced by throwing a rock into a pool of water. P-waves, or compression waves, are body waves that carry their energy along an expanding spherical wave front. The particle motion in these waves is longitudinal (i.e., in a “push-pull” fashion).
P-waves are analogous to airborne sound waves. S-waves, or shear waves, are also body waves that carry energy along an expanding spherical wave front. However, unlike P-waves, the particle motion is transverse, or side-to-side and perpendicular to the direction of propagation.
Date Palm Apartments - Noise
Noise Impact Study
City of Cathedral City, CA Ground-Borne Vibration Fundamentals 9 As vibration waves propagate from a source, the vibration energy decreases in a logarithmic nature and the vibration levels typically decrease by 6 VdB per doubling of the distance from the vibration source.
As stated above, this drop-off rate can vary greatly depending on the soil but has been shown to be effective enough for screening purposes, in order to identify potential vibration impacts that may need to be studied through actual field tests.

City of Cathedral City, CA Regulatory Setting
10 4.0 Regulatory Setting
The proposed project is located in the City of Cathedral City, California, and noise regulations are addressed through the efforts of various federal, state and local government agencies. The agencies responsible for regulating noise are discussed below.
4.1 Federal Regulations
The adverse impact of noise was officially recognized by the federal government in the Noise Control Act of 1972, which serves three purposes:
• Publicize noise emission standards for interstate commerce • Assist state and local abatement efforts
• Promote noise education and research
The Federal Office of Noise Abatement and Control (ONAC) originally was tasked with implementing the Noise Control Act. However, it was eventually eliminated leaving other federal agencies and committees to develop noise policies and programs. Some examples of these agencies are as follows: The Department of Transportation (DOT) assumed a significant role in noise control through its various agencies. The Federal Aviation Agency (FAA) is responsible to regulate noise from aircraft and airports.
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is responsible to regulate noise from the interstate highway system. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is responsible for the prohibition of excessive noise exposure to workers.
The federal government advocates that local jurisdiction use their land use regulatory authority to arrange new development in such a way that “noise sensitive” uses are either prohibited from being constructed adjacent to a highway or, or alternatively that the developments are planned and constructed in such a manner that potential noise impacts are minimized.
Since the federal government has preempted the setting of standards for noise levels that can be emitted by the transportation source, the City is restricted to regulating the noise generated by the transportation system through nuisance abatement ordinances and land use planning.
4.2 State Regulations
Established in 1973, the California Department of Health Services Office of Noise Control (ONC) was instrumental in developing regularity tools to control and abate noise for use by local agencies. One significant model is the “Land Use Compatibility for Community Noise Environments Matrix.” The matrix allows the local jurisdiction to clearly delineate compatibility of sensitive uses with various incremental levels of noise.
The State of California has established noise insulation standards as outlined in Title 24 and the Uniform Building Code (UBC) which in some cases requires acoustical analyses to outline exterior noise levels and to ensure interior noise levels do not exceed the interior threshold. The State mandates that the legislative body of each county and city adopt a noise element as part of its comprehensive general plan.

11 4.3 City of Cathedral City Noise Regulations
The City of Cathedral City outlines their noise regulations and standards within the Municipal Code and the Noise Element of the City of Cathedral City General Chapter V Section C.
City of Cathedral City General Plan
The local noise element must recognize the land use compatibility guidelines published by the State Department of Health Services. The guidelines rank noise land use compatibility in terms of normally acceptable, conditionally acceptable, normally unacceptable, and clearly unacceptable as illustrated in Exhibit D. (Table IV-3 and Exhibit III-12 of the City’s GP, EIR).
The Noise Element outlined in Chapter V Environmental Hazards coordinates the community’s land uses with the existing and future noise environment and designs measures intended to minimize or avoid community exposure to excessive noise levels. The implementation of the policies and programs contained in the Noise Element is meant to reduce or avoid current and future noise impacts.
The Noise Element identifies the major source of continuous, excessive noise in the City. Those sources are traffic noise propagating from main roadways and also freight rail service along the Southern Pacific Railroad, parallel to the I-10 highway. Airport noise can impact occasionally the noise environment.
Sensitive receptors are identified as schools, libraries, and medical facilities. The City of Cathedral City has adopted their ordinance to address the State requirement outlined by the California Government Code Section 65032, subsection (f) and section 21083.1 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Applicable noise ordinance for the City of Cathedral City is in place through Chapter 11.96 of the City Municipal Code.
The Noise Element also describes the noise contours projected for major roadways, and the data is presented in Table V-3.
In addition to the noise standards, the City has outlined goals, policies, and programs to reduce potential noise impacts and are presented below:
Goals, Policies, and Implementation Measures
Policies, goals and implementation program measures from the Noise Element that would mitigate potential impacts on noise include the following.

City of Cathedral City, CA Study Method and Procedure
17 5.0 Study Method and Procedure
The following section describes the noise modeling procedures and assumptions used for this assessment.
5.1 Noise Measurement Procedure and Criteria
Noise measurements are taken to determine the existing noise levels. The following criteria are used to select measurement locations and receptors:
• Locations expected to receive the highest noise impacts, such as first row of houses • Locations that are acoustically representative and equivalent of the area of concern • Human land usage
• Sites clear of major obstruction and contamination
MD conducted the sound level measurements in accordance to CalTrans technical noise specifications. All measurements equipment meets American National Standards Institute (ANSI) specifications for sound level meters (S1.4-1983 identified in Chapter 19.68.020.AA). The following gives a brief description of the Caltrans Technical Noise Supplement procedures for sound level measurements:
• Microphones for sound level meters were placed 5-feet above the ground for all measurements • Sound level meters were calibrated (Larson Davis CAL 200) before and after each measurement • Following the calibration of equipment, a wind screen was placed over the microphone • Frequency weighting was set on “A” and slow response
• Results of the long-term noise measurements were recorded on field data sheets • During any short-term noise measurements any noise contaminations such as barking dogs, local traffic, lawn mowers, or aircraft fly-overs were noted
• Temperature and sky conditions were observed and documented
5.2 Noise Measurement Locations
Noise monitoring locations were selected based on the distance of the nearest sensitive on-site receptors to the main noise source (Date Palm Drive). Short-term noise measurements were conducted near the southwestern corners of the project site. Measurements represent ambient levels at the site. Appendix A includes photos, field sheet, and measured noise data. Exhibit E illustrates the location of the measurements.
5.3 Stationary Noise Modeling
SoundPLAN (SP) acoustical modeling software was utilized to model future worst‐case stationary noise impacts to the adjacent land uses. SP is capable of evaluating multiple stationary noise source impacts at various receiver locations. SP’s software utilizes algorithms (based on the inverse square law and reference equipment noise level data) to calculate noise level projections. The software allows the user to input specific noise sources, spectral content, sound barriers, building placement, topography, and sensitive receptor locations.
Date Palm Apartments - Noise
Noise Impact Study
City of Cathedral City, CA Study Method and Procedure
18 The future worst-case noise level projections were modeled using referenced sound level data for the stationery on-site sources (HVAC and parking). The reference equipment sound level data is provided in Appendix D. Modeling assumes that project operations occur continuously. The SP model (see Appendix D and Exhibit F) assumes a total of 1 HVAC equipment per residential unit, and the parking lot area operating simultaneously (worst-case scenario) when in actuality the noise will be intermittent and lower in noise level.
5.3 FHWA Traffic Noise Prediction Model
Traffic noise from vehicular traffic was projected using a computer program that replicates the FHWA Traffic Noise Prediction Model (FHWA-RD-77-108). The FHWA model arrives at the predicted noise level through a series of adjustments to the Reference Energy Mean Emission Level (REMEL). Roadway volumes and percentages correspond to the project’s traffic impact study as projected by the Trip Generation and VMT scoping agreement for Date Palm Apartments development made by Integrated Engineering Group, and Coachella Valley Association of Governments 2015 Traffic Census Report (Extrapolated to the opening year with a 2% annual growth). The referenced traffic data was applied to the model and is in Appendix B. The following outlines the key adjustments made to the REMEL for the roadway inputs:
• Roadway classification – (e.g. freeway, major arterial, arterial, secondary, collector, etc), • Roadway Active Width – (distance between the center of the outer most travel lanes on each side of the roadway)
• Average Daily Traffic Volumes (ADT), Travel Speeds, Percentages of automobiles, medium trucks and heavy trucks
• Roadway grade and angle of view
• Site Conditions (e.g. soft vs. hard)
• Percentage of total ADT which flows each hour through-out a 24-hour period Table 3 indicates the roadway parameters and vehicle distribution utilized for this study.

• Traffic noise source spectra
• Topography
MD projected the traffic noise levels to the on-site receptors. The project noise calculation worksheet outputs are located in Appendix B.
5.4 FHWA Roadway Construction Noise Model
The construction noise analysis utilizes the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Roadway Construction Noise Model (RNCM), together with several key construction parameters. Key inputs include distance to the sensitive receiver, equipment usage, % usage factor, and baseline parameters for the project site.
The project was analyzed based on the different construction phases. Construction noise is expected to be loudest during the grading, concrete and building phases of construction. The construction noise calculation output worksheet is located in Appendix C. The following assumptions relevant to short-term construction noise impacts were used:
• It is estimated that construction will occur over a 1-year time period. Construction noise is expected to be the loudest during the grading, concrete, and building phases.

City of Cathedral City, CA Future Noise Environment Impacts 22 7.0 Future Noise Environment Impacts
This assessment analyzes future noise impacts to and from the project and compares the results to the City’s Noise Standards. The analysis details the estimated exterior noise levels associated with traffic from adjacent roadways and project stationery noise sources.
7.1 Future Exterior Noise
The following outlines the exterior noise levels associated with the proposed project.
7.1.1 Noise Impacts to Off-Site Receptors Due to Stationary Sources Sensitive receptors that may be affected by project operational noise include existing residential to the east and south. The worst-case stationary noise was modeled using SoundPLAN acoustical modeling software. Worst-case assumes project’s noise sources are always operational when in reality the noise will be intermittent and cycle on/off depending on customer usage.
A total of three (3) receptors were modeled to evaluate the proposed project’s operational impact. A receptor is denoted by a yellow dot. All yellow dots represent either a calibration point, property line, or a sensitive receptor such as an outdoor sensitive area (courtyard, patio, backyard, etc).
This study compares the Project’s operational noise levels to two (2) different noise assessment scenarios: 1) Project Only operational noise level projections, 2) Project plus ambient noise level projections.
Project Operational Noise Levels
Exhibit F shows the “project only” operational noise levels at the property lines and/or sensitive receptor area. Operational noise levels at the adjacent uses are anticipated to range between 42 dBA to 43 dBA Leq (depending on the location).
The “project only” noise projections to the property lines are below the City’s 65 dBA daytime residential limit, and 50 dBA nighttime limit as outlined within the City’s noise ordinance (see Section 4.3 of this report).
Project Plus Ambient Operational Noise Levels
Table 5 demonstrates the project plus the ambient noise levels. Project plus ambient noise level projections are anticipated to range between 56 to 58 dBA Leq at nearby receptors (R1 – R3). The “project plus ambient” noise projections to the adjacent uses are not increasing the ambient noise level.

Notes:
1. Receptor 1 - 3 represents residential uses.
2. The ambient noise condition was estimated using the FHWA TNM based on receiver distance to Date Palm Dr and calibrated to the noise measurement performed at the project site. See Appendix A for noise measurement and Appendix B for traffic noise calculation sheets.
3. See Exhibit F for the operational noise level projections at said receptors.
4. Per Section 11.96.030 from the City's Municipal Code.
As shown in Table 5, the project does not exceed the City’s exterior noise limit. The project was compared to the existing baseline condition (estimated at receiver location based on the measurement performed) to the operational plus ambient noise condition to show the change in noise level. Table 5 provides the anticipated change in noise level as a result of the proposed project. The existing noise levels are anticipated to have a negligible increase at the receptor locations analyzed.
When comparing the change in noise level to acoustic characteristics outlined within Table 1 (Section
2.5 of this report), the noise level increase would be “Not Perceptible” at the receptors.
7.1.2 Noise Impacts to Off-Site Receptors Due to Project Generated Traffic A worst-case project generated traffic noise level was modeled utilizing the FHWA Traffic Noise Prediction Model - FHWA-RD-77-108. Traffic noise levels were calculated at two locations. The first one represents the residences close to the south edge of the project site, and is approximately 400 feet from the centerline of Date Palm Drive. The second location represents the residences to the east of the project site and is 670 feet from the centerline of Date Palm Drive. Additionally at the first location the impact is analyzed from the Rosemont Avenue opening. The trip generation for the multi-family residence project is 1,375, distributed 100% on Date Palm Drive for conservative purposes. The modeling is theoretical and does not take into account any existing barriers, structures, and/or topographical features that may further reduce noise levels. Therefore, the levels are shown for comparative purposes only to show the difference in with and without project conditions. In addition, the noise contours for 60, 65 and 70 dBA CNEL were calculated. The potential off-site noise impacts caused by an increase of traffic from operation of the proposed project on the nearby roadways were calculated for the following scenarios:
Opening Year (without Project): This scenario refers to opening year 2025 traffic noise conditions.
Opening Year (Plus Project): This scenario refers to opening year + project traffic noise conditions.
Table 6 compares the without and with project scenario and shows the change in traffic noise levels as a result of the proposed project. It takes a change of 3 dB or more to hear a perceptible difference. As demonstrated in Table 6, the project is anticipated to generate a small change in the noise CNEL level.
Date Palm Apartments - Noise

City of Cathedral City, CA Future Noise Environment Impacts 25 The change in noise level is less than significant as a 0.4 dBA noise increase is projected. No further mitigation is required.

7.1.3 Noise Impacts to On-Site Receptors Due to Traffic Traffic noise from the local roadway network was evaluated and compared to the City’s noise compatibility matrix. Per the City’s Land Use Compatibility (Table V-2 from Geneal Plan / Noise Element), multi-family residential is conditionally acceptable up to 70 dBA CNEL. Opening Plus Project traffic noise projections show that the traffic noise contour for 70 dBA CNEL will reach up to 88 feet from the Date Palm centerline. The proposed residential structures are located as close as 85 feet away from Date Palm Drive centerline and fall within the 70 to 65 dBA CNEL contour of the Roadway and are located within the conditionally acceptable region for multiple-family residential (per land use compatibility matrix).

The future interior noise level was calculated for the sensitive receptor locations using a typical “windows open” and “windows closed” condition. A “windows open” condition assumes 12 dBA of noise attenuation from the exterior noise level. A “windows closed” condition” assumes 20 dBA of noise attenuation from the exterior noise level.

Notes:

2. A minimum of 12 dBA noise reduction is assumed with a "windows open" condition.
3. A minimum of 20 dBA noise reduction is assumed with a "windows closed" condition.
4. Indicates the required STC rating to meet the interior noise standard.
As shown in Table 7, the interior noise level will be 58 dBA CNEL with the windows open and 45 dBA CNEL with the windows closed.
To meet the interior 45 dBA CNEL standard a “windows closed” condition is required. The windows and sliding glass doors directly facing Date Palm Drive will require a minimum STC rating of 30 for the 1st floor and 2nd floors. A “windows closed” condition simply means that in order to achieve a 45 dBA CNEL interior noise level, the windows must be closed and does not mean the windows must be fixed.
The present project is designed to meet the Title 24 CBC; therefore, the construction assembly and techniques shall suffice to meet the interior noise isolation requirements.
7.2 Summary of Recommendations
The following recommendations are provided:
COA-1: Consistent with the Land Use Compatibility Matrix and prior to issuance of grading permit, a detailed sound attenuation study is necessary to verify the project will achieve a minimum 25 dBA noise reduction.

The degree of construction noise may vary for different areas of the project site and also vary depending on the construction activities. Noise levels associated with the construction will vary with the different phases of construction.
8.1 Construction Noise
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has compiled data regarding the noise-generated characteristics of typical construction activities. The data is presented in Table 8.

Notes:
1 Referenced Noise Levels from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Construction noise is considered a short-term impact and would be considered significant if construction activities are taken outside the allowable times as described in the City’s Municipal Code (Section
11.96.070). Construction is anticipated to occur during the permissible hours according to the City’s Municipal Code. Construction noise will have a temporary or periodic increase in the ambient noise level above the existing within the project vicinity. Furthermore, noise reduction measures are provided to further reduce construction noise. The impact is considered not significant however construction noise level projections are provided.

29 Typical operating cycles for these types of construction equipment may involve one or two minutes of full power operation followed by three to four minutes at lower power settings. Noise levels will be loudest during grading phase. A likely worst-case construction noise scenario during grading assumes the use of a grader, a dozer, and two (2) excavators, two (2) backhoes and a scraper operating at 320 feet from the nearest sensitive receptor (residences to the east).
Assuming a usage factor of 40 percent for each piece of equipment, unmitigated noise levels at 290 feet have the potential to reach 69 dBA Leq and 73 dBA Lmax at the nearest sensitive receptors during grading.
Noise levels for the other construction phases would be lower and range between 62 to 65 dBA.
8.2 Construction Vibration
Construction activities can produce vibration that may be felt by adjacent land uses. The construction of the proposed project would not require the use of equipment such as pile drivers, which are known to generate substantial construction vibration levels. The primary vibration source during construction may be from a bull dozer. A large bull dozer has a vibration impact of 0.089 inches per second peak particle velocity (PPV) at 25 feet which is perceptible but below any risk to architectural damage.
The fundamental equation used to calculate vibration propagation through average soil conditions and distance is as follows:
PPVequipment = PPVref (100/Drec)
n
Where: PPVref = reference PPV at 100ft.
Drec = distance from equipment to receiver in ft.
n = 1.1 (the value related to the attenuation rate through ground) The thresholds from the Caltrans Transportation and Construction Induced Vibration Guidance Manual in Table 9 (below) provides general thresholds and guidelines as to the vibration damage potential from vibratory impacts.

Source: Table 19, Transportation and Construction Vibration Guidance Manual, Caltrans, Sept. 2013.
Note: Transient sources create a single isolated vibration event, such as blasting or drop balls. Continuous/frequent intermittent sources include impact pile drivers, pogo-stick compactors, crack-and-seat equipment, vibratory pile drivers, and vibratory compaction equipment.

At a distance of 320 feet, a large bulldozer would yield a worst-case 0.005 PPV (in/sec) which below the threshold of perception and any risk of damage. The impact is less than significant, and no mitigation is required.
8.3 Construction Noise Reduction Measures
Construction operations must follow the City’s General Plan and the Noise Ordinance, which states that construction, repair or excavation work performed must occur within the permissible hours. To further ensure that construction activities do not disrupt the adjacent land uses, the following measures should be taken:
1. Construction should occur during the permissible hours as defined in Section 11.96.070.
2. During construction, the contactor shall ensure all construction equipment is equipped with appropriate noise attenuating devices.
3. The contractor should locate equipment staging areas that will create the greatest distance between construction-related noise/vibration sources and sensitive receptors nearest the project site during all project construction.
4. Idling equipment should be turned off when not in use.
5. Equipment shall be maintained so that vehicles and their loads are secured from rattling and banging.

Wren Project TA Executive Summary
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Purpose of the Report
The purpose of this transportation analysis (TA) report is to identify and document potential traffic deficiencies related to The Wren project (Project) in Cathedral City, according to the County of Riverside Transportation Analysis Guidelines for Level of Service (LOS) and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT), December 2020 (Guidelines). This technical report will also recommend transportation improvements to address potential project deficiencies at local and regional transportation facilities.
Project Overview
The Project will be developed on a vacant site located on the northeast corner of Date Palm Drive and future Rosemount Road extension. The Project is proposing the construction of 204 multi-family (lowrise) dwelling units.
Under existing conditions, Rosemount Road does not extend to Date Palm Drive. The Project will be conditioned to construct half-width roadway improvement along the property frontage on Rosemount Road including curb, gutter, sidewalk and paving. Therefore, access to the Project site will be provided via one proposed driveway along Rosemount Road extension and one existing driveway along Date Palm Drive through an access easement to the adjacent Northgate Community Church site. Additionally, the Project will construct a traffic signal at the new intersection of Rosemount Road and Date Palm Drive.
The Project trip generation was calculated using the ITE Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition). It is estimated that the Project will generate 1,375 total daily trips, 81 AM peak hour trips and 104 PM peak hour trips. Project trip distribution and assignment were developed, in coordination with the Cathedral City staff, based on the land use characteristics of the Project and surrounding area, existing travel patterns within the study area, anticipated travel patterns to and from the Project site, and approved projects located in the vicinity of the Project site. Analysis scenarios and study area were then established in coordination with City staff to determine the potential project deficiencies on the transportation network. Refer to Appendix A for approved scoping agreement.

Cumulative Year 2025
All study area intersections operate at acceptable LOS under Cumulative Year 2025 Conditions.
Additionally, all roadway segments have capacity at an acceptable LOS under Cumulative Year 2026 Conditions. Therefore, no improvements are required by this Project.
Horizon Year 2045 Scenario
All study area intersections operate at acceptable LOS under Horizon Year 2045 No Project and Horizon Year Plus Project Conditions. Additionally, all roadway segments have capacity at an acceptable LOS under Horizon Year 2045 No Project and Horizon Year Plus Project Conditions.
Therefore, no improvements are required by this Project.
Recommended Improvements
The proposed traffic signal at the new intersection of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road will be constructed by whichever project completes their final phase first between Date Palm Drive Mixed Use, the Wren Project, and the Future Shopping Center west of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road intersection. The City of Cathedral City Transportation Department staff has requested a fair share assessment to determine the percentage of new traffic volumes added to the intersection of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road. The three proposed developments are expected to add a total of 12,166 ADTs to the subject intersection. The three projects will contribute to the funding of this transportation improvement based on their portion of total ADT generated as follows:
1. Wren Development is projected to add 1,375 ADTs (13.43%),
2. Date Plam Mixed Use is projected to add 1,668 ADTs (16.29%)
3. Future Shopping Center to the west of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road intersection is projected to add 7,199 ADTs (70.29%)
Project will be conditioned to construct the signal and ensure full signal operation prior to the issuance of project first certificate of occupancy.
Table ES-1 shows the project fair contribution toward the construction of the new signalized intersection at Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road.

The Wren TA Project Introduction
1.0 PROJECT INTRODUCTION
This transportation analysis (TA) report has been prepared for The Wren project (Project) in Cathedral City, according to the County of Riverside Transportation Analysis Guidelines for Level of Service (LOS) and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT), December 2020 (Guidelines).
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Project will be developed on a vacant site located on the northeast corner of Date Palm Drive and future Rosemount Road extension. The Project is proposing the construction of 204 multi-family (lowrise) dwelling units.
Figure 1-1 shows the project site plan.
STUDY AREA
The study area for this project was developed consistent with the Guidelines, including all intersections of “Collector” or higher classification streets with “Collector” or higher classification streets, at which the proposed project will add 50 or more peak hour trips. IEG prepared a project traffic study scoping agreement defining the study area, which was reviewed and approved by Cathedral City staff prior to the preparation of this technical report. Refer to Appendix A for approved scoping agreement.
Figure 1-2 presents the study area that includes the following key locations:
Study Area Intersections:
1. Date Palm Drive and McCallum Way
2. Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road
3. Date Palm Drive and 30th Avenue
Study Roadway Segments:
1. Date Palm Drive, McCallum Way to Rosemount Road
2. Date Palm Drive, Rosemount Road to 30th Avenue
Turning movement counts for one weekday during the morning and evening peak hours and average daily traffic (ADT) counts were conducted on Tuesday May 9, 2023. The turning movement and ADT counts are included in Appendix B. These counts will be utilized in Synchro 11 software to determine LOS at all study intersections and for roadway segment capacity analysis. Year 2025 without Project traffic volumes will be developed by adding a 3% annual growth for two years to the existing counts.
Horizon Year Plus Project volumes will be developed by applying an annual growth factor based on the growth from RIVCOM Base Year 2018 with Projects to Forecast Year 2045 with Projects.
PROJECT TRIP GENERATION
Trip generation is a measure or forecast of the number of trips that begin or end at the Project site.
These trips will result in some traffic increases on the streets where they occur. The rates used in this analysis were determined using Trip Generation, 11th Edition, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), is the method preferred by the Guidelines. Project ITE average trip generation rates are presented in Table 1-1 and the calculated trip generation based on the number of dwelling units associated with the Project is shown in Table 1-2. 1 The Wren TA Project Introduction

As shown in Table 1-2, the Project is anticipated to generate approximately 1,375 total daily trips, 81 AM peak hour trips and 104 PM peak hour trips.
PROJECT TRIP DISTRIBUTION AND ASSIGNMENT
Trip distribution and assignment is the process of identifying the probable destinations, directions, and traffic routes that Project related traffic will affect. Once the proposed development’s trips have been estimated, they are assigned to the study area network. For this development, the Project trip distribution and assignment were developed, in coordination with City staff, based on the land use characteristics of the Project and surrounding area, existing travel patterns within the study area, anticipated travel patterns to and from the Project site, and approved projects located in the vicinity of the Project site.
Figure 1-2 and 1-3 show Project study area, trip distribution, and trip assignment.
PROJECT ACCESS
Under existing conditions, Rosemount Road does not extend to Date Palm Drive. The Project will be conditioned to construct half-width roadway improvement along the property frontage on Rosemount Road including curb, gutter, sidewalk and paving. Therefore, access to the Project site will be provided via one proposed driveway along Rosemount Road extension and one existing driveway along Date Palm Drive through an access easement to the adjacent Northgate Community Church site. Additionally, the Project will construct a traffic signal at the new intersection of Rosemount Road and Date Palm Drive.
PARKING
The proposed development will provide on-site parking spaces consistent with Cathedral City parking requirements.

ANALYSIS METHODOLOGIES
Street system operating conditions are typically described in terms of “level of service.” Level of service is a report-card scale used to indicate the quality of traffic flow on roadway segments and at intersections. Level of service (LOS) ranges from LOS A (free flow, little congestion) to LOS F (forced flow, extreme congestion). Table 2-1 describes generalized definitions of auto LOS A through F. 6 The Wren TA Methodologies
Table 2-1
Vehicular Level of Service Definitions
LOS Characteristics
Primarily free-flow operation. Vehicles are completely unimpeded in their ability to maneuver within the traffic stream. Controlled delay at the boundary intersections is minimal. The travel speed exceeds 85% of the base free-flow speed.
Reasonably unimpeded operation. The ability to maneuver within the traffic stream is only slightly restricted and control delay at the boundary intersections is not significant. The travel speed is between 67% and 85% of the base free-flow speed.
Stable operation. The ability to maneuver and change lanes at mid-segment locations may be more restricted than at LOS B. Longer queues at the boundary intersections may contribute to lower travel speeds. The travel speed is between 50% and 67% of the base free-flow speed.
Less stable condition in which small increases in flow may cause substantial increases in delay and decreases in travel speed. This operation may be due to adverse signal progression, high volume, or inappropriate signal timing at the boundary intersections. The travel speed is between 40% and 50% of the base free-flow speed.
Unstable operation and significant delay. Such operations may be due to some combination of adverse signal progression, high volume, and inappropriate signal timing at the boundary intersections. The travel speed is between 30% and 40% of the base free-flow speed.
A
B
C
D
E
Flow at extremely low speed. Congestion is likely occurring at the boundary intersections, as indicated by high delay and extensive queuing. The travel speed is 30% or less of the base free-flow speed. Also, LOS F is assigned to the subject direction of travel if the through movement at one or more boundary intersections have a volume-to-capacity ratio greater than 1.0.
F
Source: Highway Capacity Manual, Transportation Research Board (2016) Intersection Capacity Analysis
The analysis of peak hour intersection performance was conducted using the Synchro 11 software program, which uses methodologies defined in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 6th Edition to calculate LOS. Level of service (LOS) for intersections is determined by control delay. Control delay is defined as the total elapsed time from when a vehicle stops at the end of a queue to the time the vehicle departs from the stop line. The total elapsed time includes the time required for the vehicle to travel from the last-in-queue position to the first-in-queue position, including deceleration of vehicles from free-flow speed to the speed of vehicles in the queue.
Signalized Intersections
The HCM analysis methodology for evaluating signalized intersections is based on the “operational analysis” procedure. This technique uses 1,900 passenger cars per hour of green per lane (pcphpl) as the maximum saturation flow of a single lane at an intersection. Table 2-2 summarizes the level of service criteria for signalized intersections.
7 The Wren TA Methodologies
Table 2-2
Signalized Intersection Level of Service HCM Operational Analysis Method Average Control
Delay Per Vehicle Level of Service (LOS) Characteristics (seconds)
LOS A occurs when the volume-to-capacity ratio is low and either progression is exceptionally favorable or the cycle length is very short. If it is due to favorable progression, most vehicles arrive during the green indication and travel through the intersection without stopping.
<10.0
LOS B occurs when the volume-to-capacity ratio is low and either progression is highly favorable or the cycle length is short. More vehicles stop than with LOS A.
LOS C occurs when progression is favorable or the cycle length is moderate. The number of vehicles stopping is significant, although many vehicles still pass through the intersection without stopping.
10.1 – 20.0
20.1 – 35.0
LOS D occurs when the volume-to-capacity ratio is high and either progression is ineffective or the cycle length is long. Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable.
35.1 – 55.0
LOS E occurs when the volume-to-capacity ratio is high, progression is unfavorable, and the cycle length is long. Individual cycle failures are frequent. 55.1 – 80.0 LOS F occurs when the volume-to-capacity ratio is very high, progression is very poor, and the cycle length is long. Most cycles fail to clear the queue. >80.0 Source: Highway Capacity Manual, Transportation Research Board (2016) Roadway Capacity Analysis
Roadway capacities are theoretical for planning purposes and are affected by factors such as intersection spacing, configuration, traffic control, access control, roadway grade, design geometrics, sight distance and vehicle mix. Roadway segment level of service is estimated by comparing the ADT on a roadway segment to the roadway ADT capacity. The City of Cathedral City 2040 General Plan provides roadway segment volume capacities based on street classifications. Table 2-4 shows these ADT thresholds.

The Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), amended with California MUTCD 2014 Edition, presents warrant criteria for justifying the installation of a traffic signal at an unsignalized intersection. The criteria include studying traffic conditions, pedestrian characteristics, and physical characteristics of the intersection location. The MUTCD indicates that satisfaction of one or more of the traffic signal warrants does not in itself require the installation of a traffic control signal.
This study uses MUTCD Section 4C.04 Warrant 3, Peak Hour to assess the need of a traffic signal at the unsignalized intersections of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road. Signal warrant worksheets are included in Appendix J.
8 The Wren TA Methodologies
City of Cathedral City 2040 General Plan Compliance
In coordination with City staff, the transportation analysis will identify LOS deficiencies for compliance with City of Cathedral City 2040 General Plan goals. Cathedral City has established LOS “D” as the minimum allowable level of service at intersections and roadway segments. Therefore, any intersection or roadway segment resulting in an LOS worse than this minimum will be considered deficient for the purposes of this analysis.

This section documents the circulation system conditions within the study area of the Project under Existing Year 2023. This section also documents operational deficiencies on the existing local and regional circulation networks.
ROADWAY NETWORK
Locally significant roadway located within the study area of the proposed project is discussed below.
Date Palm Drive functions as a divided 6-lane roadway within the study area from McCallum Way to 30th Avenue. The posted speed limit is 45 miles per hour. Per the City of Cathedral City 2040 General Plan Circulation & Mobility Element, Date Palm Drive is at its buildout roadway classification of an arterial highway.
Figure 3-1 shows the City of Cathedral City 2040 General Plan Master Roadway Classifications.
TRANSIT SYSTEM
The SunLine Transit Agency (STA) is the main transit agency servicing Cathedral City. Currently, STA operates Route 4 within the vicinity of the project. Route 4 operates seven days a week and connects to Palm Springs west of the site and Palm Desert to the south. Weekday and weekend service frequency is 60 minutes. Bus stops for Route 4 is currently located within 350 ft of the site at the northeast corner of the Date Palm Drive and McCallum Way intersection for northbound service and at the southwest corner for southbound service. Pedestrian accessibility and connectivity from the project site to these bus stops is provided along the frontage (east side of Date Palm Drive) with signalized crossings at the intersection where the bus stops are located. Bus route information is included in Appendix K.
ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM
Pedestrian facilities are provided within the study area of the project. Pedestrian crosswalks are generally provided at signalized intersections along Date Palm Drive with sidewalks on the west side from McCallum Way to 30th Avenue and on the east side from the Project limits to McCallum Way.
There are no existing bicycle facilities along Date Palm Drive. However, the City of Cathedral City 2045 General Plan Circulation & Mobility Element proposes a Class I off-road shared bike and pedestrian trail along Date Palm Drive.

4.0 PROJECT COMPLETION YEAR 2025 CONDITIONS
This section documents the circulation system conditions within the study area of the project under Project Completion Year 2025 (Existing Plus Ambient Plus Project Phase 1) Conditions. The Project proposes half-width improvements of Rosemount Road including curb, gutter, sidewalk and paving.
Therefore, this analysis assumes the construction of a traffic signal at the new intersection of Rosemount Road and Date Palm Drive by the Project. Signal warrant worksheets are provided in Appendix J. IEG understands that existing traffic patterns would change due to these improvements.
Adjusted Existing Year 2023 intersection peak hour traffic volumes for the Date Palm Drive Rosemount Road intersection were developed by redistributing forecast traffic from the Project’s RIVCOM 3 Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) to the intersection of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road.
The TAZ adjacent to the west side of Date Palm Drive loads approximately one-third of its base year 2018 daily traffic onto Date Palm Drive. The TAZ that the project is located within also loads approximately one-third of its 2018 daily traffic volume onto the intersection of Santoro Drive and 30th Avenue. Since both TAZs include similar residential and commercial retail components, the unadjusted zone connector volumes applied to the intersection of Santoro Drive and 30th Avenue were also applied at the intersection of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road.
An annual growth factor based on the growth from Base Year 2018 to Forecast Year 2045 was applied to 2018 TAZ AM and PM peak hour volumes to calculate the redistributed volumes that would be applied to Existing Year 2023 counts. The turning movement distribution percentages for the eastbound approach at the intersection of Date Palm Drive and 30th Avenue was applied to the intersection of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road to calculate adjusted Year 2023 turning movement volumes. RIVCOM 3 model plots, annual growth calculation, Date Palm Drive and 30th Avenue distribution, and adjusted Year 2023 volumes are included in Appendix B.
Since the Project is expected to be built and operational in 2025, a 3% annual growth factor for two years was applied to the Adjusted Existing 2023 volumes. Project traffic volumes are then added to these volumes to develop Project Completion Year 2025 Conditions traffic volumes. This section also documents potential operational deficiencies on the proposed local and regional circulation network.

This section documents the circulation system conditions within the study area of the Project under Horizon Year 2045 No Project and Horizon Year Plus Project Conditions. Rosemount Road does not currently extend to Date Palm Drive. However, the Project proposes half-width improvements of Rosemount Road including curb, gutter, sidewalk and paving. Therefore, the following analysis assumes a traffic signal at the new intersection of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road. Signal warrant worksheets are provided in Appendix J.
The proposed traffic signal at the new intersection of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road will be constructed by whichever project completes their final phase first between Date Palm Drive Mixed Use, the Wren Project, and the Future Shopping Center west of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road intersection. The City of Cathedral City Transportation Department staff has requested a fair share assessment to determine the percentage of new traffic volumes added to the intersection of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road. The three proposed developments are expected to add a total of 12,166 ADTs to the subject intersection. The three projects will contribute to the funding of this transportation improvement based on their portion of total ADT generated as follows:
1. Wren Development is projected to add 1,375 ADTs (13.43%),
2. Date Plam Mixed Use is projected to add 1,668 ADTs (16.29%)
3. Future Shopping Center to the west of Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road intersection is projected to add 7,199 ADTs (70.29%)
Future Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road signalized intersection ultimate geometry will include the following:
1. Northbound – three thru lanes, one left turn lane and one exclusive right turn lane
2. Southbound – three thru lanes, one left turn lane and one exclusive right turn lane
3. Eastbound – one left turn lane and one thru-right turn lane
4. Westbound – one left turn lane, one thru lane and one exclusive right turn lane Project will be conditioned to construct the signal and ensure full signal operation prior to the issuance of project first certificate of occupancy.
Figure 6-1 shows Date Palm Drive and Rosemount Road intersection future lane configuration.

The Wren TA Vehicle Miles Traveled
7.0 VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED
The purpose of this section is to evaluate the project’s vehicle miles traveled (VMT) analysis requirements and compliance with Senate Bill 743 (SB 743) and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
SB 743
On September 27, 2013, SB 743 was signed into State law and started a process intended to fundamentally change transportation impact analysis as part of CEQA compliance. On December 28, 2018, the California Office of Administrative Law cleared the revised CEQA guidelines for use. Among the changes to the guidelines was removal of vehicle delay and level of service from consideration under CEQA. With the adopted guidelines, transportation impacts are to be evaluated based on a project’s effect on VMT.
VMT ANALYSIS GUIDELINES
The Project is within the jurisdiction of the City of Cathedral City (City). The City has not formally adopted its own guidance on evaluating VMT for transportation impacts under CEQA. In the absence of adopted lead agency guidance, and in consultation with the City, the Guidelines were selected as the most appropriate basis to evaluate VMT for this project.
VMT ANALYSIS
The VMT analysis was conducted by General Technologies & Solutions using RIVCOM4.01 to assess the Project VMT.
The Guidelines recommend use of home-based production VMT per capita as the VMT metric to evaluate residential land uses. The home-based production VMT is computed by using attraction VMT for the Home-Based production trip purpose. Per the Guidelines, the project will constitute a significant impact if the Project VMT per capita is higher than the Riverside Countywide home-based production VMT per capita.
Both baseline (2018) and horizon year (2045) model runs were used to estimate the Project’s VMT impacts. RIVCOM4.01 socioeconomic databases for the scenarios were updated with the Project land use to calculate Project VMT. Typically, Project VMT is calculated by isolating the Project in a new TAZ or multiple TAZs depending on the diversity of Project land uses and Project size. RIVCOM4.01 does not allow addition of new TAZs or TAZ splits, however it includes some empty zones. One empty zone was borrowed to model the Project. The Project TAZ was utilized to calculate project specific VMT per capita.
Table 7-1 shows the Project VMT metrics and regional VMT thresholds for both baseline (2018) and horizon year (2045) “with Project” model runs.

Since the Project is anticipated to be constructed by Opening Year 2025, we utilized interpolation to determine the Project VMT and regional average VMT values for Year 2025. The interpolated values are calculated to a Project VMT of 15.5 and a regional average VMT of 18.3.
Additionally, the project will be constructing half-width of Rosemount Road along the property frontage including travel lanes, curb, gutter, and sidewalk. The addition of travel lanes is in compliant with the Cathedral City Circulation Element and not expected to induce demand since the VMT is not a newly generated VMT; instead, it is the existing residential neighborhood traffic that will redistribute throughout the local roadway network that residents currently travel to and from each day. The roadway extension will provide the proposed project and existing residential neighborhood direct access to Date Palm Drive and to newly built commercial retail services within close proximity that will essentially reduce overall VMT. Therefore, it was determined that the Project and roadway extension are not anticipated to result in a significant transportation impact related to VMT under Base Year 2018, Opening Year 2025, or Horizon Year 2045 scenarios.

John Corella, P.E., City Engineer/Public Works Director, Cathedral City George Ghossain, Principal Engineer, Integrated Engineering Group Scoping Agreement for The Wren Project
From:
Subject:
Integrated Engineering Group (IEG) is pleased to submit this scoping agreement for The Wren project (Project) located at the northeast corner of Date Palm Drive and future Rosemount Road connection within Cathedral City, California. The Project is proposing the construction of 204 multi-family (low-rise) dwelling units on a vacant 11.49- acre lot and the Rosemont Road extension between Date Palm Drive and the existing alignment at the residential subdivision to the east.
Our goal is to obtain comments from Cathedral City staff, to ensure this scoping agreement addresses the analysis requirements for the project, according to the County of Riverside Transportation Analysis Guidelines for Level of Service (LOS) and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT), December 2020 (Guidelines).
The preliminary site plan for the Project is shown in Attachment 1. It is anticipated that the proposed development will be built and occupied by Year 2025. Rosemount Road does not currently extend to Date Palm Drive. However, it is anticipated that the appropriate dedications and easements will be in place prior to Project opening. Therefore, access to the Project site will be provided via one proposed driveway along the Rosemount Road extension and one existing driveway along Date Palm Drive through a proposed access easement to the adjacent Northgate Community Church site. Additionally, the Project will construct a traffic signal at the new intersection of Rosemount Road and Date Palm Drive.
TRIP GENERATION FOR POTENTIAL USES
Trip generation is a measure or forecast of the number of trips that begin or end at the project site. The traffic generated is a function of the extent and type of development proposed for the site. These trips will result in some traffic increases on the streets where they occur. Per the Guidelines, project vehicular traffic generation characteristics should be estimated based on established rates contained in the Trip Generation Manual (TGM), 11th Edition, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). The proposed Project ITE average trip generation rates are shown in Table 1.

STUDY AREA
The study area for this project was developed consistent with the Guidelines, which includes all intersections of two (2) or more “Collector” or higher classification streets, at which the proposed project will add 50 or more peak hour trips, and the roadway segments between these intersections. Attachment 2 presents the study area that includes the key intersection and roadway segment locations identified in the scoping form. 24-hour segment and intersection counts will be conducted for one weekday (Tuesday through Thursday), with turning movements collected during the morning (7:00-9:00am) and evening (4:00-6:00) peak hours. The turning movement counts will be utilized in Synchro to determine level of service (LOS) at all study intersections.
TRIP DISTRIBUTION
Trip distribution and assignment is the process of identifying the probable destinations, directions, and traffic routes that project related traffic will likely affect. Trip distribution and assignment information can be estimated from observed traffic patterns, experience or through use of a computerized travel forecast model. Once the proposed developments trips have been estimated, they are assigned to the study area network. For this project, the trip distribution was developed based on the land use characteristics, surrounding land uses in the vicinity of the project site, anticipated travel patterns to and from the project site and existing travel patterns within the study area.
Attachments 2 and 3 show the project’s trip distribution and trip assignment, respectively.
ANALYSIS SCENARIOS
Analysis of the intersection operating conditions during the peak periods will be conducted for the following anticipated timeframe scenarios:
Existing Conditions Year 2023
Project Completion Year 2025 (Existing plus Ambient Growth plus Project) Cumulative Year 2025 (Existing + Project + Ambient + Cumulative) Conditions Horizon Year 2045 No Project Conditions
Horizon Year Plus Project Conditions
Ambient growth is 3% per year.
Specific issues to be addressed in the Study (in addition to the standard analysis described in the Guideline)
The Study will include intersection queue analysis to determine the lengths of the following potential exclusive lanes:

VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED (VMT) ANALYSIS
Per the Guidelines, the Project does not screen out per the Small Project criteria and will be required to run the model in order to conduct a full VMT analysis. Once City staff provide their input, IEG will conduct the required VMT analysis to determine if the Project would result in a significant transportation VMT impact.
