Water Distribution Calculations ii July 2017 SEQR Report Lansing Commons - Auburn Road Parcel “C” – Town of Lansing, NY 1.0 INTRODUCTION The proposed two-phase project will be situated on a ±22.4-acre parcel located on the north side of Auburn Road, NYS Rte. 34/34B, in the Town of Lansing, Tompkins County, New York. The project is bounded by undeveloped land to the north, east and west and Auburn Road and the Town Hall property to the south. The subject property is currently owned by the Town and is part of a larger subdivision of Town property, called “Town Center”, that includes a Request for Proposal process to develop the lands. Phase I will consist of nine apartment buildings totaling 72 units and one ±3100 SF community center on ±13.5 acres. The second phase will be immediately west of the Phase I and will consist of seven apartment buildings totaling 56 units, and will also include its own community building. The project will include the construction of approximately 600 LF of Town dedicated road and right of way from Rte. 34/34B to the project site which will also serve as a path for dedicated utilities to serve the site. 2.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The proposed project will construct 128 total units (72 in phase I and 56 in Phase II) on 22.4 acres in the center of the Town of Lansing. A summary of critical environmental impacts as a result of the project include: • There are no sewers in the vicinity of the project. The project will install a wastewater package treatment plant in lieu of a very challenging sewer extension. Preliminary discussions with NYSDEC indicate that a package plant can be constructed on site, and can discharge to the onsite intermittent stream and wetlands. • The project will seek Planning Board Site Plan approval for Phase I, along with a SEQR determination. • The full buildout of the site requires a Town Planned Development Review process. Phase I by itself does not). The PDA process and Phase II will be pursued at a later date. • The project requires a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, requiring review and approval by the Town Engineer. The stormwater management design will incorporate several NYDSEC green infrastructure practices, in addition to the traditional quantity control measures. The project will follow all NYSDEC stormwater design requirements for permanent and temporary stormwater management and erosion control measures. 1 April 2017 SEQR Report Lansing Commons - Auburn Road Parcel “C” – Town of Lansing, NY • The project will need to extend a dedicated road to the site, to provide access to Auburn Road. The road extension will require NYSDOT permitting and approval of the road design by the Town. • The project will provide private sidewalks within the project limits. These sidewalks will however, have a connection to the proposed sidewalks along the new dedicated Town road out to Auburn Road, continuing on to the Town Hall. The sidewalks will allow residents to walk to and from the bus stop at the Town Hall, among other destinations on Auburn Road. • The Town trail system also traverses the site. The project has taken every measure possible to avoid altering the existing trail. Where required however, the trail will be reconstructed to avoid project features and to ensure the trail remains whole. The project conforms with the latest version of the Town’s Comprehensive plan, by proposing a denser development in the center of Town that will provide multifamily affordable housing meeting a countywide need. The project also utilizes the Comprehensive Plan’s recommendations of preserving natural features, such as wetlands, which are being avoided on this site. 2 April 2017 SEQR Report Lansing Commons - Auburn Road Parcel “C” – Town of Lansing, NY 3.0 LAND USE AND ZONING The project will be built on approximately 22.4 acres that is currently zoned B-1 Commercial. The site is currently vacant and has been used as a farm field in the past. There is no proposed change in zoning. Despite the project use being residential in nature, it will still comply with B-1 zoning regulations. The site is surrounded by Residential RA, R2 and R3 residential zones to the north, and B1, B2 and IR zoned properties to the south and east. The Town’s 2016 Comprehensive plan update, indicates the site that is proposed for development be used for “mixed-use” development, mixed use being defined as denser, to eliminate sprawl, and have a form based code that encourages the Town to work with a developer to provide a product that the Town would like to see in terms of character and façade. This project provides the Town that opportunity. The proposed bulk area requirements and provisions of the project are as follows: Required Proposed Setbacks Front 100’ 100’ Rear 10’ 240’ Side 10’ 24’ Building N/A 2 stories Height Building N/A 49’ Separation Lot Area Phase 1 N/A ±13.5 acres Phase 2 N/A ±8.9 acres Bldg.

Phase 2 is shown as a future development to determined potential SEQR impacts. 3 April 2017 SEQR Report Lansing Commons - Auburn Road Parcel “C” – Town of Lansing, NY 4.0 CULTURAL RESOURCES The NYSSHPO website was consulted to determine if the project fell within an archeo-sensitive area or if there existed any other historic features near or on the site. The project area did fall within an archeo-sensitive area and the Developer has submitted an application of determination to SHPO through the CRIS website. A graphic from the SHPO website is included below. APPROX SITE LOCATION 5.0 WETLANDS The project site contains Federal wetland areas which were delineated by a Terrestrial Environmental Specialists, Inc in June 2017. The wetland flagging was surveyed by Passero Associates and included in the base mapping provided in Appendix A of this report. The project’s concept plan has been designed to avoid all Federal wetlands. A copy of the wetland report is included in Appendix B of this report. A package treatment plant is proposed to treat site generated wastewater, as discussed later in this report. A permit from NYSDEC and the US Army Corps of Engineers will be required to permit the discharge of treated effluent from the plant to the aforementioned wetlands. 4 April 2017 SEQR Report Lansing Commons - Auburn Road Parcel “C” – Town of Lansing, NY 6.0 SOILS Per the USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service/Web Soil Survey, the soils within the development area contain the following: Ilion Silty Clay Loam (IcA) Hydrologic Soil Group “C/D” 0-2% Slopes Lyons soils (Ly) Hydrologic Soil Group “C/D” 0-3% Slopes Ovid Silt Loam (OaA) Hydraulic Soil Group “B/D” 0-6% Slopes The developer has contracted a geotechnical firm to perform test pits and soil borings. That firm is currently engaged in mobilization and scheduling the work to be performed. The result will be a report with an analysis of the findings, as well as recommendations for pavement and foundation installations. 7.0 UTILITIES 7.1 Sanitary Sewer The project parcel is located in an area where

  • Hazardous Materials List
    Hazardous Materials List Version: 1.12.2016 v 1.4 All agrochemicals, especially pesticides, can be potentially hazardous in some form or other to human and animal health as well as to the environment and therefore should be used only under caution. Fairtrade International recommends the use of other methods like proper choice of crops and varieties, suitable cultivation practices and biological material for pest, before a chemical pesticide is used for pest control. The Hazardous Materials List (HML) is divided in three lists: the Red List, the Orange List and the Yellow List. Red List: The Red List is a ‘prohibited’ list and includes materials that must not be used on Fairtrade products. Orange List: The Orange List is a ‘restricted’ List and includes materials that may be used under conditions specified in this document thus restricting their use. The use of materials in this list will be monitored by Fairtrade International. Operators should be aware that some of these materials are to be phased out by 30 June 2020 or by 30 June 2022 as indicated in the list. The other materials in the list may eventually be prohibited and are encouraged to abandon their use. Yellow List: The Yellow List is a ‘flagged’ list and includes materials which are flagged for being hazardous and should be used under extreme caution. Fairtrade International will be monitoring the classification of these materials by international bodies like PAN, WHO and FAO, and materials may be prohibited in the future. Operators are encouraged to abandon their use. Classification of materials in the HML The Hazardous Materials List includes materials that are identified as Highly Hazardous as defined in the Code of Conduct on Pesticide Management adopted by FAO and WHO in 2013.

  • Role of Chlorine Dioxide in N‑Nitrosodimethylamine Formation
    Article pubs.acs.org/est Role of Chlorine Dioxide in N‑Nitrosodimethylamine Formation from Oxidation of Model Amines † ‡ † § Wenhui Gan, Tom Bond, Xin Yang,*, and Paul Westerhoff † SYSU-HKUST Research Center for Innovative Environmental Technology, School of Environmental Science and Engineering, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou 510275, China ‡ Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, United Kingdom § School of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment, Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona 85287-3005, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) is an emerging disinfection byproduct, and we show that use of chlorine dioxide (ClO2) has the potential to increase NDMA formation in waters containing precursors with hydrazine moieties. NDMA formation was measured after oxidation of 13 amines by monochloramine and ClO2 and pretreatment with ClO2 followed by postmonochloramination. Daminozide, a plant growth regulator, was found to yield 5.01 ± 0.96% NDMA upon reaction with ClO2, although no NDMA was recorded during chloramination. The reaction rate was estimated to be ∼0.0085 s−1, and on the basis of our identification by mass spectrometry of the intermediates, the reaction likely proceeds via the hydrolytic release of unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), with the hydrazine structure a key intermediate in NDMA formation. The presence fi − of UDMH was con rmed by gas chromatography mass spectrometry analysis. For 10 of the 13 compounds, ClO2 preoxidation reduced NDMA yields compared with monochloramination alone, which is explained by our measured release of dimethylamine. This work shows potential preoxidation strategies to control NDMA formation may not impact all organic precursors uniformly, so differences might be source specific depending upon the occurrence of different precursors in source waters.

  • 5. Potential for Human Exposure
    HYDRAZINES 119 5. POTENTIAL FOR HUMAN EXPOSURE 5.1 OVERVIEW Hydrazine and 1,1-dimethylhydrazine are industrial chemicals that enter the environment primarily by emissions from their use as aerospace fuels and from industrial facilities that manufacture, process, or use these chemicals. Treatment and disposal of wastes containing these chemicals also contribute to environmental concentrations. These chemicals may volatilize to the atmosphere from other media and may sorb to soils. These chemicals degrade rapidly in most environmental media. Oxidation is the dominant fate process, but biodegradation occurs in both water and soil at low contaminant concentrations. The half-lives in air range from less than 10 minutes to several hours, depending on ozone and hydroxyl radical concentrations. Half-lives in other media range up to several weeks, under various environmental conditions. Bioconcentration does occur, but biomagnification through the food chain is unlikely. Human exposure to hydrazine and 1,1-dimethylhydrazine is mainly in the workplace or in the vicinity of aerospace or industrial facilities or hazardous waste sites where contamination has been detected. These chemicals have not been detected in ambient air, water, or soil. Humans may also be exposed to small amounts of these chemicals by using tobacco products. Hydrazine has been found in at least 4 of the 1,430 current or former EPA National Priorities List (NPL) hazardous waste sites (HazDat 1996). 1,1 -Dimethylhydrazine and 1,2-dimethylhydrazine have been identified in at least 3 and 1 of these sites, respectively. However, the number of sites evaluated for these chemicals is not known. The frequency of these sites within the United States can be seen in Figure 5-1.
