Subject: Overview of Sewer Service for the Otay Ranch Town Center Redevelopment
Introduction
This report provides an overview of sewer service for the Otay Ranch Town Center
Redevelopment project. The project is located east of State Route 125, north of Birch Road,
west of Eastlake Parkway, and south of Olympic Parkway in the City of Chula Vista. A
vicinity map for the project is presented on Figure 1.
The existing Otay Ranch Town Center site includes five lots (Lots 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) on
approximately 87.25 acres and comprises commercial space. The project proposes to
redevelop the northwest portion of the existing Otay Ranch Town Center site. The
redevelopment will affect Lots 1 and 4, which make up 58.49 acres of the overall site. Within
the 58.49 acres, 16.57 acres will be redeveloped with 840 residential dwelling units; there
will be no change in commercial square footage as 37,200 square feet of existing commercial
will be removed and replaced with 37,200 square feet of new commercial. The remaining
area will consist of private streets and plaza improvements. The Tentative Map title sheet
for the Otay Ranch Town Center Redevelopment project is provided in Appendix A for
reference. The title sheet includes tabulated land use breakdowns of the affected lots and
shows the location of existing Lots 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Sewer service for the existing Otay Ranch Town Center site is provided by the City of Chula
Vista.
Background
The backbone sewer system for the existing Otay Ranch Town Center (previously referred to
as Freeway Commercial or FC-1) site was identified in the May 2001 Freeway Commercial
Conceptual Sewer Study prepared by Powell/PBS&J (May 2001 Study). This study projected
sewer flows for the project based on a generation factor of 2,500 gpd/acre and established
recommended sewer system projects required to provide sewer service to the project.
Sewer Planning Criteria
The planning criteria used to evaluate the sewer system requirements for the Otay Ranch
Town Center Redevelopment project are in accordance with the City of Chula Vista 2014
Wastewater Collection System Master Plan. The 2014 Wastewater Collection System Master
Plan outlines velocity and depth-to-diameter (d/D) requirements for existing and new sewer
lines. Table 1 lists the sewer planning criteria for the project.

The gravity sewer analyses in this report were performed using a computer spreadsheet
which uses the Manning Equation for all of its calculations. Per Table 1, the value of
Manning’s “n” used is 0.013.
Sewage Generation
As previously mentioned, the May 2001 Study projected sewer flows for the current Otay
Ranch Town Center site. The sewage generation factor used in the sewer study was 2,500
gpd/acre. Sewage generation for the proposed Otay Ranch Town Center Redevelopment
project was estimated using sewage generation factors provided in the City of Chula Vista
2014 Wastewater Collection System Master Plan. The decrease in sewer generation factors
compared to the May 2001 Study is due to water conservation efforts in recent years. The
sewage generation factors are summarized in Table 2.

Land Use Sewage Generation Factor
May 2001 Study Sewage Generation Factor

To convert average sewage generation to peak dry weather flow (PDWF) a peaking factor of
1.41 was used. To convert average sewage generation to peak wet weather flow (PWWF) a
peaking factor of 1.85 was used. Backup data for these peaking factors is presented in
Appendix B.

1. Acreage of existing Otay Ranch Town Center site (87.25 acres) reduced by 16.57 acres (redevelopment area).
2. Acreage excludes private street area (2.93 acres) and park/plaza area (2.73 acres) as no sewer generation is
expected.
Based on Table 4, it is estimated that the redevelopment of the existing Otay Ranch Town
Center site will generate sewage flows as follows:
Average Sewage Generation: 253,094 gpd
PDWF: 253,094 gpd x 1.41 = 356,863 gpd
PWWF: 253,094 gpd x 1.85 = 468,224 gpd
In comparing the average sewage generation estimates shown on Table 3 and Table 4, the
proposed redevelopment will increase existing average sewage generation by 34,969 gpd from
218,125 gpd to 253,094 gpd.

Existing Sewer System
As previously mentioned, the Otay Ranch Town Center Redevelopment project is within the
City of Chula Vista and will receive sewer service from the City of Chula Vista public sewer
system.
Sewer service to the existing Otay Ranch Town Center site is currently provided by 8-inch
and 10-inch sewer lines onsite. The onsite sewer facilities convey sewage south to Birth Road
by gravity to an existing 10-inch gravity sewer line. The 10-inch gravity sewer line in Birth
Road conveys flow west across State Route 125 and increases to a 12-inch line before reaching
La Media Road. A 12-inch gravity sewer in La Media Road conveys flow north to the Poggi
Canyon Interceptor in Olympic Parkway. The existing sewer system in the vicinity of the
project is presented on Figure 2.
Proposed Sewer System
Figure 3 presents the proposed sewer system for the Otay Ranch Town Center
Redevelopment project. The existing 8-inch gravity sewer line in the northwest corner of the
existing Otay Ranch Town Center site will be removed to accommodate the proposed
redevelopment. The two northernmost buildings proposed within the redevelopment area
will receive sewer service by installing two new reaches of sewer to serve the two
northernmost proposed buildings within the project. Per the design criteria in Table 1, these
new reaches of sewer will be required to have a minimum diameter of 8 inches.

Onsite Public Sewer System Analysis
To evaluate the available capacity in the existing sewer lines within the Otay Ranch Town
Center site, the sewer generation estimates in Table 4 were used.
Using the sewer generation numbers presented in Table 4, a calculation was performed for
the worst-case 8-inch segment of public sewer line within the project site that is impacted by
the redevelopment. The worst-case 8-inch segment that is impacted by the redevelopment
serves the west side of the site and has a 0.5 percent slope (see Figure 3). The calculation
shows that an 8-inch sewer line at 0.5 percent slope can convey a maximum of 276,610 gpd
at a depth-to-diameter (d/D) ratio of 0.5. The projected sewer flow for this 8-inch sewer line
is 169,948 gpd at PWWF (91,864 gpd x 1.85 = 169,948 gpd) and is based on serving 320
residential units and 24 commercial acres (conservatively assumed to be approximately 1/3
of entire site acreage). Thus, the projected sewer flow for the worst-case 8-inch segment
onsite is well under its available capacity.
A second calculation was performed for the worst-case 10-inch segment of public sewer line
within the project site that is impacted by the redevelopment. The minimum slope for any
10-inch sewer line onsite is 0.77 percent (see Figure 3). A 10-inch sewer line onsite at 0.77
percent slope can convey a maximum of 622,380 gpd at a depth-to-diameter (d/D) ratio of 0.5.
This is well above the PWWF of 468,224 gpd projected for the entire Otay Ranch Town Center
site post-redevelopment (PWWF = ADWF x 1.85 = 253,094 gpd x 1.85 = 468,224 gpd). Thus,
all other onsite lines meet City of Chula Vista sewer criteria and onsite sewer line upgrades
are not required for the redevelopment.

Offsite Public Sewer System Analysis
The offsite public sewer analysis consists of two parts: the first part addresses the public
sewer lines from the project to Olympic Parkway (Birch Road and La Media Road) and the
second part address the capacity of the Poggi Canyon Interceptor.
Birch Road and La Media Road Public Sewer Analysis. To evaluate the available
capacity in the existing sewer lines downstream of the Otay Ranch Town Center site (west
in Birch Road and north in La Media Road) to Olympic Parkway, hydraulic modeling data
from the City of Chula Vista 2014 Wastewater Collection System Master Plan was used (see
Appendix 2 of 2014 Wastewater Collection System Master Plan). The modeling data in the
2014 Wastewater Collection System Master Plan provides sewer pipeline diameters, slopes,
and Year 2050 peak wet weather flows for the sewer system downstream of the project.
The data provided in the 2014 Wastewater Collection System Master Plan was used to create
a computer model spreadsheet to analyze the existing sewer system. The critical reach of
sewer downstream of the project is a 10-inch sewer line in Birch Road that has a slope of 0.5
percent. The sewer slope for the critical reach of sewer was confirmed using an as-built
drawing which is included in Appendix C for reference.
At the time of the preparation of the 2014 Wastewater Collection System Master Plan, the
following two assumptions were made related to manhole sewer flow loading:
1. It was assumed that the Otay Ranch Town Center (previously referred to as Freeway
Commercial) site would flow north into Olympic Parkway; however, that is not the
case as the existing Otay Ranch Town Center site flows south into Birch Road.
2. It was assumed that 982 EDUs (modeling data shows ADWF = 260,329 gpd / 265
gpd/EDU = 982 EDUs) would flow into the existing 10-inch sewer line in Birch Road
upstream of the intersection of Birch Road and Millenia Avenue; however, that is not
the case as the only project contributing sewer flow to this portion of the sewer line is
the Eastern Urban Center project which contributes a maximum of 580 EDUs to the
sewer line in Birch Road per the project’s approved EIR (see Appendix D).

Based on the changes to the assumptions in the 2014 Wastewater Collection System Master
Plan outlined above, the following two changes were made to the modeling data pulled from
the 2014 Wastewater Collection System Master Plan for the sewer analysis.
1. The PWWF determined for the Otay Ranch Town Center site under existing and
proposed conditions was added to the PWWF at Birch Road presented in the 2014
Wastewater Collection System Master Plan to evaluate the available capacity in the
existing sewer system.
2. The PWWF presented in the 2014 Wastewater Collection System Master Plan for the
Eastern Urban Center was reduced from 371,483 gpd (982 EDUs at 265 gpd/EDU
with 1.44 peaking factor) to 246,790 gpd (580 EDUs at 230 gpd/EDU with 1.85 peaking
factor) to evaluate the available capacity in the existing sewer system.
Appendix E presents the computer model results for the existing sewer system under Year
2050 flows plus the existing Otay Ranch Town Center site. Exhibit A at the back of this
report presents a Manhole Diagram for the modeling data. The results in Appendix E
indicate that the maximum d/D in the existing public sewer system downstream of the project
is 0.59 d/D at Computer Model Pipe 16648 (10-inch sewer line just downstream of the project).
Flow velocities in the existing sewer system range from 3.0 fps to 7.6 fps.
Appendix F presents the computer model results for the existing sewer system under Year
2050 flows plus the proposed Otay Ranch Town Center redevelopment. Exhibit A presents a
Manhole Diagram for the system. The results indicate that the maximum d/D in the existing
public sewer system downstream of the project increases from 0.59 d/D to 0.63 d/D. Flow
velocities in the existing sewer system range from 3.0 fps to 7.7 fps.
As described in Footnote 2 of Table 1 in this report, the maximum allowable d/D for existing
sewer lines 12-inches in diameter and smaller is 0.70 d/D before a sewer system upgrade is
required. Thus, no public sewer improvements are required to accommodate the proposed
project as the existing public sewer system can accommodate the proposed project based on
Year 2050 flows.

Poggi Canyon Interceptor Analysis. The available capacity in the Poggi Canyon
Interceptor was evaluated using data from the April 2009 Poggi Canyon Basin Gravity Sewer
Development Impact Fee Update prepared by PMC (2009 Poggi DIF Study). Data from this
report includes existing permitted EDUs in the Poggi Canyon basin as well as committed
EDUs based on previous project approvals.
Since the time of the 2009 Poggi DIF Study a few projects have been approved that have
increased the amount of units to the Poggi Interceptor. The projects accounted for are the
following:
1. JPB Village 2 SPA Amendment. The JPB Village 2 SPA Amendment increased
the unit count in Village 2 by 197 units. Per the November 21, 2011 Sewer System
Evaluation that was done for this project, the net effect of this land use change was
the addition of 160 EDUs to the Poggi Basin. These additional EDUs have been
considered in this sewer system analysis.
2. Village 2 Comprehensive SPA Amendment. The Village 2 Comprehensive SPA
Amendment increased the unit count in Village 2 by 1,562 units. Per the March 4,
2014 Sewer System Evaluation that was done for this project, the net effect of this
land use change was the addition of 938 EDUs to the Poggi Basin. These additional
EDUs have been considered in this sewer system analysis.
3. Eastern Urban Center (EUC). The EUC was approved in September 2009, shortly
after the 2009 PMC Study was prepared. The PMC Study did, however, anticipate
the EUC project and included 429 EDUs from the EUC (Table 3-2) in the calculation
of the Poggi Interceptor Fee. These units include 189 EDUs within the Poggi Basin
and 240 EDUs that are proposed to be permanently diverted from the Salt Creek
Basin to the Poggi Basin. Since the 2009 PMC Study already accounts for units from
the EUC, no additional EDUs from the EUC have been considered as part of this sewer
system analysis.

Because the analysis of the Poggi Canyon Interceptor will be largely based on the 2009 Poggi
DIF Study, a comparison of the proposed redevelopment versus the assumptions in the 2009
Poggi DIF Study is necessary. Table 5 provides the sewer flow projections from the 2009
Poggi DIF Study compared to the current land use plan with the redevelopment. As shown
in Table 5, the Poggi Basin projections in the 2009 Poggi DIF Study would be increased by
132 EDUs based on the proposed Otay Ranch Town Center Redevelopment project.

2. Acreage of the Otay Ranch Town Center site was presented as 81.92 acres in the 2009 DIF Study. Current
numbers show the site has a total area of 87.25 acres. Therefore, the acreage was increased from 81.92 acres
to 87.25 acres for this analysis.
3. Acreage of existing Otay Ranch Town Center site (87.25 acres) reduced by 16.57 acres (redevelopment area).
Table G-7 in Appendix G summarizes the impact that adding 132 EDUs would have on
permitted and committed remaining capacity in the Poggi Canyon Interceptor. Exhibits B-1
and B-2 identifies Poggi Interceptor reach locations and indicate where the Otay Ranch Town
Center flows ultimately enter the Poggi Interceptor.

As shown in Table G-7 in Appendix G, the two reaches already identified in the 2009 Poggi
DIF Study for future replacement are shown as being over capacity and one additional reach,
P345 to P365, reach is shown to be slightly over capacity. This additional reach was identified
as over capacity in the March 4, 2014 Sewer System Evaluation that was done for Village 2
Comprehensive SPA Amendment. Thus, the limits of the required DIF improvements for the
Otay Ranch Town Center Redevelopment project are the same as those presented in the
March 4, 2014 Sewer System Evaluation that was done for Village 2 Comprehensive SPA
Amendment. The Poggi Basin Gravity Sewer Development Impact Fee is currently being
updated and should reflect the additional units and additional improvement identified in
Table G-7 in Appendix G.
Thank you for the opportunity to assist you with the sewer system planning for this project.

3.3.6 PEAK WET WEATHER WASTEWATER FLOW (PWWF)
Peak Wet Weather Wastewater Flow (PWWF) is estimated as Peak Dry Weather Flow (PDWF) plus
Rainfall Dependent Infiltration/Inflow (RDI/I) and BWI, combined as Inflow/Infiltration (I/I) for this master
plan due to the data available. RDI/I is storm water that enters the wastewater collection system in direct
response to the intensity and duration of individual rainfall events. RDI/I may recede gradually after a storm;
however, any residual flow is considered to be a general increase in GWI.
To create the PWWF scenarios, the model was loaded using PDWF values, and Rainfall Dependent Inflow
and Infiltration (RDI/I), combined as I/I was added to the PDWF. Peak values were then evaluated based
on consistency throughout the year from data gathered from the City’s main outfalls, removing any
inconsistent peaks, resulting in an average peaking factor for I/I of 1.85. The total volume of I/I was then
averaged out across the city and multiplied accordingly to each pipeline based on its length-diameter. The
respective I/I value was then added to the calculated BWF per time period for PWWFs.

EIR EXCERPT
4.11 Public Services and Utilities
Eastern Urban Center Sectional Planning Area EIR City of Chula Vista
State Clearinghouse No. 2007041074 May 2009
Page 4.11-107
PRELIMINARY WORKING DRAFT – Work in Progress
proposed on-site system would be required to comply with the existing Subdivision Manual,
Section 3 (General Design Criteria) and would be subject to review by the City’s Engineering
Department. Compliance with regulatory design criteria would ensure that on-site lines would not
exceed 75 percent of pipe capacity for pipes greater than 12 inches in diameter or 50 percent for
pipes 12 inches or less in diameter. Therefore, the project would be less-than-significant with
respect to this threshold requirement.
B. Off-Site Sewage Collection System
(1) Off-Site Poggi Canyon Sewer Improvement Area
Detailed analysis of the off-site sewage collection system and potential impacts to each sewer
drainage basis are provided in the TSS attached in Appendix J of this EIR.
The current preliminary Grading Analysis of the proposed project shows that the northern blocks of
the EUC (Blocks 2 through 6 and Park P1), would drain north to an existing 10-inch gravity sewer
in Birch Road, where wastewater would be conveyed to the Poggi Canyon Trunk Sewer (PCTS)
The Poggi Canyon Sewer Basin Plan Update and Pumped Flow Analysis (PBS&J, May 2002),
which determined the number of committed and future EDUs in the PCTS found that Reaches
P205 and P270 were the most critical in the PCST system. Since the study, Reach P205 has been
replaced, leaving Reach P270, located at the intersection of Olympic Parkway and Brandywine
Avenue, as the remaining critical reach. Based on the City’s Subdivision Manual Criteria of
265 gpd/EDU and a flow of 75 percent of system capacity, a 21-inch replacement for Reach 270 is
determined sufficient to serve the interim and ultimate worst case flow conditions for the maximum
land use plan in the north sector of the EUC, including the potential for shifts in land use densities
and ultimate flow conditions for the maximum land use plan.57 As demonstrated in the Technical
Sewer Study, the maximum condition, which includes 464 EDUs (122,960 gpd) from Village Seven
and 580 EDUs (153,700 gpd) from the EUC, would increase tributary units to 14,236 EDUs. The
resulting rate of 6,262,416 gpd would increase the flow in the Poggi Canyon system to
67.6 percent of capacity, which would be less than the 75 percent threshold. Reach P270 (the
PCSI) is proposed to be replaced as part of the EUC project with design plans to be complete prior
to the approval of any Final Maps for any areas in the EUC within the Poggi Canyon Basin, and
construction to be completed prior to first occupancy of units that would utilize the PCTS.
Mitigation measures are recommended to ensure that improvements would be completed in a
manner acceptable to the City Engineer. With the completion of the proposed improvement, the
proposed project would have a less-than-significant impact with respect to the capacity of the
PCTS. Therefore, the project would not exceed the threshold capacity in this system.
