Document Description: NOTE: Shortened Review The NOI/Initial Study evaluated the potential impacts of the project, which includes two new water production wells on two separate lots on Cooley Avenue in the City of Loma Linda. The two wells were recently installed on improved lots owned by the City of Loma Linds. Well R5 is located ~50 ft east of Richardson Street on the south side of Cooley Avenue, and Well MV6 is located ~600 ft east of Richardson Street on the south side of Cooley Avenue. The NOI/Initial Study also evaluated the potential impacts of the new Richardson Treatment Plant (RTP), which is designed to treat a groundwater flow rate of 4,800 gallons per minute (gpm). The RTP includes ion exchange (IX) treatment and Liquid Phase Granular Activated Carbon (LPGAC) treatment of gorundwater from Wells R5 and MV6 to effectively remediate perchlorate and TCE, respectively. The RTP site is located on the southeast corner of Cooley Avenue and Richardson Street on two lots that have been annexed into the City of Loma Linda and bordered by the City of San Bernardino. Well R5 is also on this site with the Water Treatment Plant.
