Water and Wastewater

Water

The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) currently supplies water to the

existing Yamashiro site. The LADWP acquires its water supply from three sources including, the

Los Angeles Aqueduct (LAA), the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD)

and local ground water.

It is said that Los Angeles Aqueduct supplies half of LA City’s water. The Metropolitan Water

District of Southern California is the largest wholesaler of water in California and on an average

provides close to 35 percent of the state’s water supply. MWD gets its water from Colorado River

and Northern California Bay Delta.

In 2009 to 2011, the LADWP had an available water supply of about 550000 acre feet with

approximately 14 percent coming from the local groundwater supply. Groundwater level in the

city I maintained through recharge basins.

Construction Impacts

During construction, portions of the existing landscaping would be removed and the existing

mountain will have modifications as a whole for development. As a result the underlying soils

would be exposed making it more permeable and susceptible for conveyance into nearby storm

drains. This permeability will not have a greater impact on the existing drainage system. The

redevelopment of this project would require earthwork activities that includes grading and

excavation of the site. There is a chance of exposure of the soil for time leading to corrosion. To

avoid this situation, it would be better to get a grading permit from the Department of Building

and Safety. This would include the requirements and standards designed to limit potential impact

associated with erosion to a permitted level.

Currently the area to be redeveloped is a mix of land uses that has a restaurant and surrounded by

beautiful landscape. Based on the water consumption analysis prepared by the LADWP, the water

consumption is close to 5000 gallons per day (GPD) seven days a week. The development of this

project will include the removal of the existing land uses, within the area prior to the construction

of the project. The consumption of water from existing land uses will be subtracted from the

Project’s contribution as a means of accurately calculating the net increase as a result of the Project.

The restaurant services and water for irrigation and maintenance of the landscape is provided by

an 8” water main. The existing water lines are assumed to be in a deteriorated condition due to

their age. Speaking to the representatives and the managers at Yamashiro, we got to know that no

development work has been done from the time it was constructed. Based on the LADWP Service

Advisory Report, the existing line has a fire flow of approximately 1700 GPM. No record of the

location and route of the existing domestic water line has been discovered for this project so it has

not been mapped beyond the two known ends of the water line. Thus the very first thing that has

to be done is the up gradation of the water system with progression of the planned development

phases.

Existing landscaping is irrigated. But the construction work and the redevelopment work will harm

the existing irrigation and landscaping which has to be looked into. Furthermore, there would be

on site water activities to reduce the airborne dust during the construction process which could

contribute to the pollutant loading in the storm water runoff. The NPDES (National Pollutant

Discharge Elimination System) general permits will be required which would also specify the

erosion control measures to be used during construction activities.

Hydrants fronting the site will be used to fill water tanks for construction uses. Water will be used

during the construction, excavation and grading activities. It is estimated that 500,000 to 800,000

gallons of water will be used during the construction process.

As the site is one of the greatest historic places and the very goal is to increase the parking so as

to attract more crowd, better firefighting needs have to be developed as the existing ones will be

damaged during the construction phase.

Operations Impacts

The proposed project would result in an increase in an impervious or impenetrable surface. The

easy passage of water will be a little difficult. With the proposed improvements, drainage would

follow patterns that would be similar to existing drainage patterns, with the exception of increased

impervious areas resulting from new additions to the site and an increase in the surface parking

areas.

The proposed Project’s approximate 5 percent increase in impervious area would result in a post-

development storm water runoff flow of 23.30 cubic feet per second (cfs), which represents a 1

percent decrease in flow when compared to existing conditions of 23.62 cfs. Therefore, no increase

in flows during a 50-year storm condition would occur and Standard Urban Storm water Mitigation

Plan (SUSMP) requirements regarding peak flows would be met. Thus, impacts associated with

drainage would be less than significant.

As the proposed uses would be the same, the Project would not generate any new sources of

polluted runoff. In accordance with the Standard Urban Storm water Mitigation Plan, the existing

site would be required to implement Best Management Practices during this operational phase to

reduce the discharge of polluted runoff from the site. Once the pollutants are present in a water

body altering its physical makeup and habitat, it is much more difficult and expensive to restore

it. Therefore, the usage of Best Management Practices prevents the damage. Storm water pollution

has two main components:

The increased volume and rate of runoff from water resistant surfaces, such as roads and

parking lots, and

The amount of pollutants in the runoff.

In turn, effective management of storm water runoff offers a multitude of benefits:

protection of wetlands and ecosystems,

improved water quality of streams, rivers and other water bodies,

protection of water resources,

protection of public health, and

flood control

The final selection of BMPs would be completed through coordination with the City of Los

Angeles. With compliance with National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)

requirements, impacts associated with water quality would be less than significant.

Other project related activities could potentially increase the volume of storm water runoff and

contribute to pollutant loading, resulting in cumulative impacts to hydrology and surface water

quality. However, as with the proposed Project, all of the related projects would also be subject to

State NPDES permit requirements for both construction and operation. Each project would be

required to develop a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and would be evaluated

individually to determine appropriate Management practices and treatment measures to avoid

impacts to surface water quality. In addition, the City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works

reviews all construction projects on a case-by-case basis to ensure that sufficient local and regional

drainage capacity is available. Thus, cumulative impacts to hydrology and surface water quality

would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures – Water

Although Project impacts are less than significant, the following mitigation measures would help

to further reduce impacts:

The future development plan will utilize the latest code required water conserving fixtures for all

fixture installations. This will include new installations and replacements. By replacing existing

low efficiency fixtures and with new low-flow type fixtures there will be a reduction in calculated

demand from the municipal water supply. As each phase of this plan is implemented, the entire

existing water system will be replaced in stages as well. The end result will be an entirely new

water system, both domestic and fire service, to meet the increased demands and serviceability.

In terms of landscape and irrigation, the proposed development site will use automatic sprinkler

systems for the landscape irrigation. They can be adjusted on a seasonal basis to operate during

hours where water loss due to evaporation is less (as in periods from November to February). If

possible, provision will be provided for water reclamation. The reclaimed water wherever feasible

shall be used to irrigate the landscaped areas in and around our site. Further care should be taken

that the project complies with all sections of the City of Los Angeles’s Water Conservation

Ordinance (No: 166080). This Ordinance No. 166,080 is the Water Conservation plan for the City

of Los Angeles.

The proposed Project shall use lower-volume water faucets and water saving shower taps in all

construction. The project will also use plumbing fixtures that reduce potential water loss from

leakage due to excessive washers. Installation of low flow water fixtures is also a feasible plan.

In terms of fire and safety, new fire hydrants are to be installed on-site to supplement two existing

public hydrants fronting the site. As each phase of the plan is proceeded new hydrants will be

added in each stage. Based on the design and plumbing, the existing municipal water supply has

insufficient pressure to supply new hydrants due to low available pressure and the site elevation.

Care is taken that the existing and proposed planting have been selected as either a native or climate

adapted species that has low watering requirements and are drought tolerant. The irrigation system

should be modelled with hydro zones to most effectively response to specific location of site and

maximize water efficiencies. A soil test of the existing conditions and management plan will

improve the soil conditions and allocate the appropriate amendments within planting areas. Storm

water run‐off and erosion is minimized through plantings, planter walls, and forms of terracing.

The underlying site geology is mainly impervious bedrock formations with little to no significant

percolation or infiltration to affect any groundwater sources. There are no wells or plans to draw

groundwater for use of the project. The master plan project will fall under Storm water

Management requirements for storm water mitigation measures, as dictated by the State of

California. This will reduce surface runoff pollutants and volumes to mitigate any off-site ground

water impact.

Historic building code State Historical Building Code (SHBC) provides other safety alternatives

which might give out other means of achieving the mitigation and safety in terms of sprinklers

using the historic code

Alternatives

a) Reduced water consumption and recycle and reuse by the reduction in parking space from 300

to 100 – This alternative will significantly bring down the water use during construction phase

from 500,000 to 800,000 to approximately 200,000 to 300,000 and also reduce the storm water

runoff. No project – This alternative yield no environmental impact

b) No project – This alternative yield no environmental impact

Wastewater

The City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works (“LADPW”) provides the wastewater

services for the Project Site. Any wastewater that would be generated by the site would be treated

at the Hyperion Treatment Plant. The Hyperion Treatment plant includes the Tillman Water

Reclamation Plant and the Los Angeles Glendale Water Reclamation Plant. The Hyperion

treatment plant is designed to treat 450 million gallons per day. The average dry water flow is

approximately 360 million gallons per day, which leaves out close to 90 million gallons of

treatment capacity available.

Construction Impacts

Construction of the Project would include all necessary on‐ and off‐site sewer pipe improvements

and connections to adequately connect to the City’s existing sewer system. The development

project would not generate that much sewer flows that would harm or jeopardize the ability of the

treatment plant to operate within its treatment requirements.

The construction phase will involve the generation of a lot of wastewater. Wastewater would be

generated from activities including maintenance, wash down, cleaning of the construction

equipment and general use. Wastewater from construction activities would be collected in onsite

proprietary disposal systems and removed from the site by licensed waste disposal contractors

prior to connection to the Hyperion treatment plant.

Proprietary wastewater collection and holding tanks would be used to collect wastewater from

individual work activities, or work sites during construction. These tanks would be supplied and

operated by the contractors. Domestic wastewater would be managed by the use of onsite

proprietary sanitary units, which would be located close to individual work site areas. During the

dredging and reclamation works, domestic wastewater would be managed on board the dredge

vessels. The vessel storage tanks would be emptied by normal, onshore sanitary disposal facilities.

A licensed waste management company would handle the transport and disposal of all wastewater

from the site during the construction works.

Another important criterion to be kept in mind is that the volume of wastewater generated during

construction would depend on the number of construction workers at the site and the nature of the

construction activities being undertaken. For significant periods of the construction program, up

to 100 construction workers would be on site. With this number of workers, the peak domestic

wastewater volume during construction would be about 12kL per day.

During construction of the project, a negligible amount of wastewater would be generated by

construction staff. If we assume that portable toilets would be provided by a private company, with

the wastewater transported and disposed of off-site. Wastewater generation from construction

activities is not anticipated to cause a measurable increase in wastewater flows at a point where,

and at a time when, a sewer’s capacity is already constrained or that would cause a sewer’s capacity

to become constrained. Additionally, construction is not anticipated to generate wastewater flows

that would substantially or incrementally exceed the future scheduled capacity of any one

Sharanya Ganesh

treatment plant by generating flows greater than those anticipated in the Wastewater Facilities Plan

or General Plan and its elements. Construction of the project would not require or result in the

construction of new wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of existing facilities; or result in

a determination by the City that it has inadequate capacity to serve the project’s projected demand

in addition to existing commitments. Therefore, construction impacts to the local wastewater

conveyance and treatment system would be less than significant.

Operation Impact Conveyance of the wastewater to the Hyperion treatment plant is done by sewer lines that are

maintained by the City of Los Angeles, Department of Public Works. Although the local

infrastructure is in place, the development of this site would require treatment and re-installation

of the 18 inch sewer line. The existing sewer lines have lost their efficiency due to age and they

have not been treated since the initial construction and set up. Any change to the existing sewer

infrastructure would be considered as a part of the development project.

Mitigation Measures - Wastewater:

Impacts related to wastewater treatment would be less than significant and the following mitigation

measures will address the impact to sewer.

For all future development projects within the Project Area, the Agency shall have a sewer

capacity study done. This would specify the wastewater flow from the project and assess

the capacity of the specific sewer lines that would serve the project to ensure the adequate

capacity will be available. This study will be utilized by the Bureau of Engineering as part

of their permitting process to determine whether sewer connection permits can be issued

for new developments.

The Agency shall consult with the Bureau of Engineering and Bureau of Sanitation to

prepare a plan that provides for the upgrading of the 18-inch line under Hollywood to meet

the requirements of the Bureau of Engineering and Bureau of Sanitation, prior to approving

any development which would generate flows that exceed the capacity of the lines serving

the project. This plan shall be included in the Agency’s implementation plan for the

Hollywood Redevelopment Project to provide for long-term replacement or upgrading of

the 18-inch line. Alternative:

a) Reduced water consumption and recycle and reuse by the reduction in parking space from 300

to 100 – This alternative will significantly reduce the wastewater generation during the

construction phase. Also in the operational phase, assuming 2 people per car, the number of people

visiting the site will be reduced from 600 to 200. That will lead to a reduction in wastewater

generation

b) No project – This alternative yield no environmental impact

NOISE

Noise

In addition we looked at the Noise key issues to identify where future analysis must be done. For

noise and vibration, the geographic scope of potential cumulative impacts is limited to the

immediate project vicinity as well as areas adjacent to any routes designated for access and hauling.

a. Physical Setting

In the physical setting, we focus on providing noise and ground borne vibration background.

Characteristics of Sound:

Sound is technically described in terms of the loudness (amplitude) and frequency (pitch) of

the sound. The standard unit of measurement for sound is the decibel (dB). The human ear

is not equally sensitive to sound at all frequencies. The “A-weighted scale,” abbreviated

dBA, reflects the normal hearing sensitivity range of the human ear. On this scale, the range

of human hearing extends from approximately 3 to 140 dBA. There are two types of noise

sources. They are the point sources, such as stationary equipment or individual motor

vehicles; and line sources, such as a roadway with a large number of point sources (motor

vehicles).

Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) and Equivalent Noise Level (Leq):

Community Noise Equivalent Level. CNEL is an average sound level during a 24-hour

period. CNEL is a noise measurement scale, which accounts for noise source, distance, single

event duration, single event occurrence, frequency, and time of day. Humans perceive sound

between 7:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. as if the sound were actually 5 decibels higher than if it

occurred from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. From 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m., humans perceive sound

as if it were 10 dBA higher due to the lower background level. Hence, the CNEL is obtained

by adding an additional 5 decibels to sound levels in the evening from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00

p.m. and 10 dBA to sound levels in the night before 7:00 a.m. and after 10:00 p.m.

Existing Local Noise Conditions:

The existing noise environment of this Yamashiro site is characterized a bit by vehicular traffic and

noises in the dense environment as it has a restaurant in the site. There is existing sound of people

conversing and/or cooking and kitchen domestic noises. Vehicular traffic is the primary source of

noise in the project vicinity as it is located right at the center of heart of LA, Hollywood.

Construction Impacts:

The construction impact of this site will have the resulting noise level from the activity to exceed

the existing ambient and noise level by 10 dBA. The threshold of significance for the construction

noise is 10 dBA. The redevelopment project would utilize heavy construction equipment in form of

bulldozers, cranes, loaders. These would generate noise in a short term basis.

Construction of the Project would result in temporary increases in ambient noise levels in the

Project area on an intermittent basis. The increase in noise would likely result in a temporary

annoyance to nearby residents during the construction period. Noise levels would fluctuate

depending on equipment type and duration of use, distance between the noise source and

receptor, and presence or absence of noise attenuation barriers.

Construction activities require the use of noise-generating equipment, such as jackhammers,

pneumatic impact equipment, saws, pile drivers, and tractors. Typical noise levels from various

types of equipment that may be used during construction are listed below. The table shows noise

levels at distances of 50 and 100 feet from the construction noise source.

Table 1: Noise level of typical construction equipment

The noise level shown below take into account the likelihood that more than one piece of

construction would be in operation at each phase of the construction. These noise levels are based

on the surveys conducted by US EPA during the 1970 and 1980’s. These represent the worst case

scenario and it can be clearly seen that the highest noise levels are expected to occur during the

grading/excavation and finishing phases of construction.

Table 2: Outdoor construction noise level

The Project would include excavation for the Project parking structure. The excavated area

would serve as a noise barrier to street-level sensitive receptors as the depth of excavation increases

because noise levels are directly related to the “line-of-sight” or visibility factor of the noise source.

For example, depending on the location of the sensitive receptors in relation to the excavated area,

when 15 feet of excavation has occurred, construction activities within the excavated area may not

be visible (and hence less audible) to street-level sensitive receptors. In addition, once the structural

framing and the exterior building walls have been completed, the majority of construction activity

would take place within the structure and would not substantially increase interior noise levels

at sensitive receptors.

During construction, it is assumed that 10 delivery/haul trucks and 10 construction worker vehicles

would be traveling to and from the project site daily. For an eight-hour construction workday, it

is assumed that approximately 5 to 7 delivery/haul trucks per hour would be traveling on the

surrounding streets. It is assumed that construction worker vehicles would be traveling on the

roadways during the AM and PM peak hours. The construction worker vehicles would be

distributed throughout the roadways within the vicinity of the project site. Generally, noise levels

increase by 3 dBA when the number of similar noise sources double.

Operation Impacts:

When it comes to the operational impact of this site, the roadways surrounding this segment would

experience an increase in the CNEL of about 3 dBA. As it is surrounded by the residential locality,

the resulting noise may be unacceptable. The development would include the inclusion of several

new on site equipment and facilities generating noise. New HVAC equipment can be added. As it

is a restaurant in the current site, and we assume that in future also we would have the restaurant

there, inclusion of music for the entertainment and outdoor gathering place for people could

generate some level of noise.

Mobile noise generated by the Project would not cause the ambient noise level measured at the

property line of the noise-sensitive receptor sites to increase by 3 dBA CNEL to or within the

“normally unacceptable” or “clearly unacceptable” category. Potential stationary noise sources

related to the long-term operations of the Project include mechanical equipment and parking

areas. Mechanical equipment (e.g., parking structure air vents and heating, ventilation and

air conditioning (HVAC) equipment) may generate noise levels ranging from 48 dBA to 66

Sharanya Ganesh

dBA. Therefore, stationary noise due to the re development project would result in a less-than-

significant impact.

The noise monitoring at the existing parking structure is assumed to be close to 60 dBA. Based

on an increase in parking to 300, there would be an increase in approximately 1 or 1.1 dBA over

the existing noise level. As the parking structure activity would not incrementally increase

ambient noise levels by 5 dBA or more, parking noise would result in a less-than-significant

impact. The new passage way will also be used as a loading dock and for service access operations

related to the restaurant. The project will not result in an additional noise source due to the

operation of the loading docks.

The Project would not include significant stationary sources of ground-borne vibration, such as

heavy equipment operations. Operational ground-borne vibration in the Project vicinity would be

generated by vehicular travel and delivery trucks on the local roadways. Based on field

observations, vibration levels from adjacent roadways are not perceptible at the Project Site.

Similar to existing conditions, traffic-related vibration levels would not be perceptible by

sensitive receptors. Thus, operational vibration would result in a less-than-significant impact

Mitigation Measures:

Since Project construction is expected to result in short-term temporary significant noise impacts

to sensitive receptors, the following mitigation measures are recommended to minimize the

impacts:

There should be effective noise barriers to reduce the line of site between construction

equipment and the noise sensitive barriers during the grading activities and excavation of

the mount for parking space activity, providing a sound barrier.

The noise generating equipment shall be equipped with proper noise control devices like

mufflers and enclosures. Care should be taken that no additional noise is generated due to

worn out or improper parts.

Installation of sound attenuating devices on exhaust fans, mechanical equipment. Provision

of sound absorbing might be given with the equipment if possible.

Flexible sound control curtains shall be placed around drilling apparatus and drill rigs used

within the Project Site, to the extent feasible.

The construction contractor shall establish designated haul truck routes. The haul truck

routes shall avoid noises sensitive receptors, including, but are not limited to residential

uses and schools

All residential units located within 500 feet of the construction site shall be sent a notice

regarding the construction schedule of the Project. All notices and signs shall indicate the

dates and duration of construction activities, as well as provide a telephone number where

residents can inquire about the construction process and register complaints.

Sharanya Ganesh

There should be an acoustical analysis done. That would help in determining if the

materials to be used for the project reduce interior noise levels to or below 45 dBA or not.

If they do, then only those features shall be incorporated in the proposed project.

Major construction activity shall be limited to the hours between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. during

the week and between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Saturdays, per the City of Los Angeles

Municipal Code. Construction activities shall be prohibited on Sundays.

Alternative:

a) Reduction of parking space from 300 to 100 – This will lead to a reduction in noise level as the

number of people per car is assumed to be 2. So the number of people visiting the site is assumed

to come down from 600 to 200. This will lead to a reduction in the noise levels.

b) No Project – The No Project Alternative would not include any construction activity and, as

such, would not generate temporary noise sources that would result in increases in the ambient

noise levels. Therefore, the No Project Alternative would have no impact on the ambient noise

levels.

Conclusion:

Thus based on our analysis it is clear that alternative A, reduction of parking spaces from 300 to

100 accomplishes our project objectives and significantly mitigates the operational noise and water

impacts. Thus that is a better choice for our development site.
