Proposal
The proposed project consists of the demolition of the eXlstmg service building and the
construction of a 1,040 sq. ft. carwash building, a 228 sq. ft. cashier/restroom building, and
1,960 sq.ft. gasoline canopy encompassing 3 gasoline islands (6 pumps total).
The carwash is proposed to for operation from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., and will be manned by
two attendants, one at the entry and one at the exit. The applicant is requesting authorization
for 24-hour operations for the gasoline sales only (the CoN zone limits business operations to
between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 11:00 p.m. unless specifically authorized by the Planning
Commission) .
ANALYSIS
carwash Requirements
Section 19.58.060 of the Municipal Code sets forth the following requirements for automobile
carwash facilities:
. all equipment used for the facility shall be soundproofed so that any noise emanating
therefrom. as measured from any point on adjacent property, shall be no more audible
than the noise emanating from the normal street traffic at a comparable distance;
. hours of operation shall be from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. unless specifically approved
by the Planning Commission;
. vacuuming facilities shall be located to discourage the stacking of vehicles entering the
carwash area and causing traffic congestion adjacent to any areas used for ingress or
egress;
Page 3, Item ~
Meeting Date 12/13/95
. the carwash location, technology, and related drainage facilities shall be designed and
constructed so as to prevent damage to pavement or other infrastructure from water from
the carwash operation being carried off-site, to provide a means to collect and retain
potentially toxic material, and to use recycled water to the extent possible.
Noise
The project is bounded to the north by Bonita Road, across which are commercial uses; and to
the east by Bonita Glen Road, across which is a service station. Abutting the project on the west
is the rear of a commercial center. A multi-family residential property is located to the south
of the site.
The applicant has submitted a noise study (attached) indicating that noise impacts from the
carwash on the southerly adjacent multi-family complex can be mitigated through the
construction of a 7 ft.- 9.5 ft. high masonry wall along the southerly property line. The project
has been conditioned to require the construction of such a wall , with specific details regarding
the design of the wall to be addressed through the Design Review process (see Exhibit nAn).
Additionally, staff is recommending the relocation of vacuum pumps so that the carwash
structure will provide a barrier between the vacuums and the southerly property.
Traffic/Site Circulation
Original plans submitted by the applicant for the proposed remodel, and analyzed for Initial
Study IS-95-25, included the operation of two existing gas islands. the construction of a
proposed carwash, and the construction of an 1,100 sq.ft. snack shop. In response to those
plans. staff raised concerns regarding site circulation. carwash stacking, and parking.
The plans have since been revised to eliminate the proposed snack shop and to add one
additional gas island with two pumps. Parking provided now meets City requirements, and the
current proposal depicts the closing of the southerly-most driveway on Bonita Glen Drive.
thereby eliminating conflicts between the carwash stacking area and vehicle ingresslegress at that
location.
The carwash will be manned by two attendants, one at the entry and one at the exit.
Additionally. four parking parking spaces adjacent to the carwash structure have been provided
for customers to park their vehicles while further cleaning and vacuuming. Thus. potential
conflicts between vehicle stacking and vacuuming facilities have been eliminated.
The Traffic Engineering Division reviewed a traffic and circulation analysis provided for the
original proposal and detennined that adverse traffic impacts would not be created. The current
plan is less intensive than the original. and also implements suggestions regarding providing a
location for vehicle cleaning after utilization of the carwash. As a result of the changes made
Page 4, Item ~
Meeting Date 12/13/95
to the proposal, staff finds that the site circulation as currently presented works reasonably well
and should not result in congestion on-site, nor should it impact traffic on adjacent streets.
Imoact upon Public Imorovements
As noted previously, the Zoning Code requires that carwashes be located and constructed so as
to prevent damage to pavement of other infrastructure from water carried off-site. A standard
condition of approval has been included which requires the applicant to enter into an agreement
with the City to repair any damage to public improvements resulting from the carwash
operations.
Hours of Ooeration
The proposed hours of operation for the carwash are from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., which is
within zoning code hours of operations restrictions specified for carwashes as well as general
business operations in the C-N zone (both of which limit business hours to between 7:00 a.m.
and 11:00 p.m.).
As a part of this proposal, the applicant is requesting authorization for 24-hour operations for
gasoline sales only. This property is located close to a freeway interchange and is surrounded
by commercial properties on three sides. The residential property to the south will be buffered
by a wall reducing noise impacts. Therefore, the 24-hour gasoline sales should not adversely
impact other properties, and staff supports the applicant's request.
CONCLUSION
The proposed remodel program will allow this older service station to upgrade its facilities and
provide better services to its customers. Based upon the previous discussion, staffrecommends
approval subject to the conditions contained in the attached draft Planning Commission
resolution.

PROJECT AGENT:
Scott Peotter
CASE NO.:
IS-95-25
I. INTRODUCTION
The environmental review procedures of the City of Chula Vista allow the Environmental Review
Coordinator (ERC) to prepare an addendum to a Negative Declaration or Environmental Impact
Report, if one of the following conditions is present:
I. The minor changes in the project design which have occurred since completion of the Final
EIR or Negative Declaration have not created any new significant environmental impacts not
previously addressed in the Final EIR or Negative Declaration.
2. Additional or refined information available since completion of the Final EIR or Negative
Declaration regarding the potential environmental impact of the project, or regarding the
measures or alternatives available to mitigate potential environmental effects of the project,
does not show that the project will have one or more significant impacts which were not
previously addressed in the Final EIR or Negative Declaration.
This addendum has been prepared in order to describe the minor changes in the project design which
'have occurred since the posting of the Mitigated Negative Declaration to provide specific measures
to mitigate environmental effects of the project and provide additional information and analysis
concerning public service impacts as a result of the applicants decision to change the project
description. As a result of this analysis, the basic conclusions of the Mitigated Negative Declaration
have not changed. Public service impacts are found to be less than significant for the proposed
project.
Therefore, in accordance with Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines, the City has prepared the
following addendum to the Mitigated Negative Declaration for the IS-95-25.
II, PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The original project included; 6 mpd's (multi-purpose dispensers), a canopy, 3 auto service bays,
restrooms, a Food Mart and a small office. Access was provided via two driveways on Bonita
Road and two driveways on Bonita Glen Drive. The project included replacement of the existing
Food Mart and auto service building with a new snackshop/cashier building and an express car
wash. In addition to the 8 parking spaces provided at the fuel pump islands. 6 marked parking
stalls will be provided on the site. The revised project excludes the snackshop. In addition to the
12 parking spaces provided at the fuel pump islands. 6 marked parking stalls will also be
provided on the site, including I handicapped stall. In addition, the coin operated vacuums shall
be located at the front of parking spaces #2 and #4. Access to the site will change slightly with
the southernmost driveway on Bonita Glen Drive being closed to allow additional car wash
queing. The other three driveways remain in their current locations. The revised project also
incorporates a masonry tunnel wall. This wall will be located at the exit of the carwash tunnel.
It shall be constructed at a height of9.5 feet and extend 28 feet past the exit of the tunnel (to the
transfonner pad). At the entrance end of the tunnel, a soundwall of7 feet shall be constructed
and extend east for 21 feet, around the west and south sides of the kiosk, and stop at the east
edge of the kiosk. The walls should be constructed of masonry block.
To remain consistent with the noise analysis (Noise Analysisfor the Unocal Car Wash in Chula
Vis/a, November 6, 1995), the hours of operation should be restricted to 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. unless
a noise analysis is submitted showing initial and continual compliance with noise confonnance
standards. The discretionary actions include the approval by the Design Review Committee and
a Conditional Use Pennit.
III. PROJECT SETTING
The project site is an existing 22,950 square foot. 24 hour Unocal gas station located on the
comer of Bonita Road and Bonita Glen Drive. The site includes: an existing canopy with four
mpd's and an existing service station building with lube bays. There are two access points on
Bonita Road and two on Bonita Glen Drive. Two underground fuel storage tanks exist on the
northeast portion of the site. Five parking spaces exist on site. The average graded slope of the
site is 5 %. A Ramada Inn and a Chevron gas station are located across Bonita Road to the
north. A Shell service station is located to the east across Bonita Glen Drive. A Liquor/Deli
shop is located to the west of the site. To the south there are multi-family residences.
IV. IDENTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS
A. Public Services Impacts
Fire
. Fire extinguishers must be provided on-site. One 2A: 10BC extinguisher is required
in the office space of the development and one 3A:60BC extinguisher is required at
the fuel islands.
. Removal or installation of any underground tanks requires a permit from the Fire
Department.
Traffic
The revised traffic and circulation analysis carried out for the revised site plan indicates that
any impacts will be at a level below significance.
V, CONCLUSION
Pursuant to Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines and based upon the above
discussion, I hereby find that the project revisions to the proposed project will result in only
minor technical changes or additions which are necessary to make the Negative Declaration
adequate under CEQA.

C. Compatibility with Zonin~ and Plans
The current zoning on-site is COIllIllercial-Neighborhood (CN) and the site is designated
COIllIllercial-Retail (CR). The proposed project is in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance
and General Plan.
D. Identification of Environmental Effects
An Initial Study conducted by the City of Chula Vista (including an attached Environmental
Checklist Form) determined that the proposed project will not have a significant
environmental effect, and the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report will not be
required. This Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared in accordance with
Section 15070 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
The following impacts have been determined to be less than significant. A discussion of
each of these less than significant impacts from the proposed project follows.
E. Miti"ation necessary to avoid si\:njficant effects
There is multi-family residential located adjacent to the site on the southerly side which
could be impacted by noise from the carwash. Therefore, prior to the issuance of a
conditional use permit. proof of substantial conformance with the City's noise standards
must be submitted. Further, the applicant must note that requirement on the site plans.
Finally. continues compliance with the City's noise standards must be maintained.

XVIII. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE:
See Negative Declaration for mandatory findings of
significance. If an EIR is needed, this section should
be completed.
a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the
quality of the environment, substantially reduce
the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a
fish or wildlife population to drop below self-
sustaining levels, 1hreaten to eliminate a plant or
animal community, reduce the number or restrict
the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal
or eliminate important examples of the major
periods or California history or prehistory?
Comments: The site is already developed as a gas station. The project which id proposed is an expansion
of the existing service station. This project would not degrade the environment or substantially affect any
biological habitats or cultural resources.
b) Does the project have the potential to achieve
short-tenn, to the disadvantage of long-tenn,
environmental goals?
Comments: No additional previously ungraded areas will be graded as a result ofthe project. There are no
significant impacts. With the requirement that all of the City's standards and regulations be met, the project
does not have the potential to achieve short-tenn goals to the disadvantage of long-tenn environmental
goals.
c) Does the project have impacts that are individually
limited, but cumulatively considerable?
("Cumulatively considerable" means that the
incremental effects of a project are considerable
when viewed in connection with the effects of past
projects. the effects of other current projects. and
the effects of probable future projects.)
Comments: All impacts, both individual and cumulative have been found to be less than significant, as a
result of the applicant's compliance with the City's Code requirements. City facilifies are adequate to serve
the proposed project and no new facilities will be required. The project does not have the potential for
individually limited effects being cumulatively considerable.
d) Does the project have environmental effect which
will cause substantial adverse effects on human
beings. either directly or indirectly?
Comments: The project is not sufficient in size or nature to cause any such impacts.

ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS POTENTIALLY AFFECTED:
The environmental factors checked below would be potentially affected by this project, involving at least one
impact that is a "Potentially Significant Impact" or "Potentially Significant Unless Mitigated," as indicated by the
checklist on the following pages.
0 Land Use and Planning III Transportation/Circulation 0 Public Services
0 Population and Housing 0 Biological Resources 0 Utilities and Service Systems
0 Geophysical 0 Energy and Mineral Resources 0 Aesthetics
0 Water 0 Hazards 0 Cultural Resources
0 Air Quality III Noise 0 Recreation
0 Mandatory Findings of Significance
DETERMINA nON:
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a
NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
o
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there
will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached
sheet have been added to the project. A MITIGATED NEGA nVE DECLARA nON will be
prepared.
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
III
o
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect(s) on the environment, but at least
one effect: 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal
standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as
described on attached sheets, if the effect is a "potentially significant impacts" or "potentially
significant unless mitigated." An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must
analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed.

S~BJECT: REVISED TRAFFIC AND CIRCULATION ANALYSIS FOR UNOCAL
SERVICE STATION NO. 6414 IN CHULA VISTA, CALIFORNIA (IS.".2J)
GEo' rk. Rivera
,~'1" Associates has completed this revised traffic and cirOJlation analysis of the proposed
1J~2'Z:E5 of Unocal service station (No. 6414), located at 89 Bonita Road (at Bonita Glen
::..:, ,r) in thE City of Chula Vista, California. Initial discussions held with City staff revealed thaI
'.:-<.<: ccn:erns for this project focused on additional trips generated by.!he improvements,
~:E'zection levels of service, on-site circulation, and driveway ingress and egress, For this
.c .5,-d analysis, 2 additional multi-product fuel dispensers were added inlo tha study, as well
as a review of car wash queuing dua to the change in the project sita plan. The following
st:t ons ~f tnis revised analysis address these concerns by providing our findings, conclusions.
G'C recommendations for the project.
S 'TE'PROJECT DESCRIPTION
7i~< ~? "Vice stalion is located on the southwest comer of the Bonita Road/Bonita Glen Drive
i'.I~r5ection, jusl wesl of the ,.805 freeway. The existing station currently inductes: 4 multi.
P"ocuct dispensers, a canopy, 3 auto sel'l/ice bays, rastrooms, perimeter landscaping, a food
rr.~n, and a small office. Access to the site is providad via 2 driveways on Bonita Road, and 2
driveways on Bonita Glen Drive.
Adjacent land uses include the residential properties to the south, restaurant~nd retail
p'operties to the west, and othar service stations to the east and north. Located directly north
of the site (i,e., across Bonita Road) is the Ramada Inn.
The intersection of Bonita Road and Bonita Glen Drive is signalized for 6 phases of movement
:ne wtstbound and eas1bound approach legs both include 3 lanes: 1 left turn lane, 1 through
I~ ~,e, a ,d 1 through/right turn combination lane. The south leg of the intersection is a 2 lane
rcaj"..ay separated by a double-yellow line. The north leg is a driveway providing access into
ths Cne-.,on Service Station and the Ramada Inn. Crosswalks are provided across the west
E ,d sc",:h legs of the intersection.

1he proposed project will include 2 additional fuel dispensers (for a total of 8), and replacing
tr\e existing food mart and auto service building with a new cashier building and an express
~ar wash (see Figure 1). Also, in addition to the 12 parking spaces provided at the fuel pump
Is;,mds, 6 marked parking stalls will be provided on the site, including 1 handicepped stall.
Planter~andscaping features wiU also be added as part of the site inprovements.
Access to the proposed service station will change slighGy with the southernmost driveway on
BOr\ita Glen Drive being closed to aUow additional car wash queuing. The other 3 driveways
,':'H remain in their current locations.
n;.;rFIC COUNTS

P-ISTII'\C LEVElS OF SERVICE
ihe level of seNice (LOS) of a roadway or an intersection is a qualitatively defined measure
<.~ ~'re..ai!ing traffic, desi9n, end operetional conditions, as denoted alphabetically from -A" to
"F: best to worst, respectively. The LOS is an evaluetion ofthl degree of congestion, roadway
cesign constraints, delay, accident potential, and driver discomfort experienced during a given
;:eriod of time.. typically during the peek hour or on a daily basis. Vllhile LOS A Is the most
cesicable operational state for a roadway segment or intersec:tion, LOS C is usually considered
a benchmark for planning purposes. In more urbanized areas, LOS D is an accepted condition
fo' peak hours of vehicutar travel on major streets and highways.
The LOS may be quantitatively calculated by a number of methods which generally compare
:c"ffi: volumes with the physical and operational capacity of a roadway section or intersection
10 c~.rry the traffic demands placed upon it. For signalized intersections, the City of ChJla Vista
u,,,, the Intersection Capacity Utilizetion (ICU) method to determine LOS. The ICU for an
i....;" csecticn is based on summation of volume/capacity ratios for critical movements.

"'T'P CEN[RA.TION
:.,~:':.<to:e trip generation rates for service stations are typically expressed in trip ends per
'ce'i~? SDa:e and may be found in various authoritative documenls including the San Diego
L $:~:,,,!on of Govemments' (SANDA G) "Traffic Generators" manual. The data found in the
~ I.e. :)AG manual typically include average weekday and A.M. and P.M. peak hour rates that
::'re .;:or,d with the A,M, and P.M. peak hours of commuter traffic. The trip generation results

Tc esti.,-,ate the number of trip ends generated by the service station with the proposed
inp:ovemenls, trip ends for a service station with a carwash and a food mart were calculated,
lo!iowed by subtracting trips for the removal of the existing service station with a food mart It
is i~,portant to note that the ,trip generation estimatas for this project are very likely overstated
d~e to the use of SANDAG's rate for a service station with a car wesh and a food mart. SANDAG

In 1992. KHR Associates prepared a "National Traffic Study" for the MobU Oil Corporation
involving traffic and circulation analyses of 30 service stAltions toemed within seven different
s!aleS Results of this study have been accepted by various public agenc:its, as well as the
Ins'clute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). In this study, it was found that an average 01
ej:'p'o.if'lalely 15 percent of service station customers patronized only the food mart. Ther.

,_ :'~e~ to estimate the number of additional vehicles visiting the site with the proposed
I~~'o..ements, clarification of trip ends lIS. vehicles needs to be made. A \rip end (or trip) is a
d '~~ronal mDvement of a single motor IIshide either to or from a site. When a vehicle enters
z !".;;, " trip end is generated. When a vehicle exits 8 site, 1 trip end is generated. Therefore.
eoc>-, vehicle entering and exiting a site generates 2 trip ends. To estimate the increase in
vsr,;~les v.ith the propDsed improvements, the estimated trip ends are reduced by 50 percent.
Tl"le estimated increase in lIehides for the proposed service station with a car wash is 330
da'l} vehicles (i,e, 660 trips), 27 A.M. (i.e. 53 trips) and 36 P.M. (i.a. 71 trips) peak hourvehides.
TRIP DISTRIBUTION
Travel patlems for project trips near the service station site were estimated by observing
ope"atio'1al conditions of adjacent roadways and intersactions. access opportunities to Inter.
state 805, end surrounding land uses, as _11 as analysis oftraflic vol~e count data. Projed
hp;; were distributed onto the adjacent roadways using these observations along with turn
r'lc\'emer,t restrictions of the site. The following reprasents the distribution percentages: 50
~e;cef't to the east (toward the freeway); 20 percent to the south (into nearby residential
;:r:cper-jes) and 30 percent to the west (along "E" Street). No project trips were distributed to
\~.c nO'1h due to the north leg of the intersection accessing the Ramada Inn and Chevron

congestion problems. /
CAR WASH OUEUINClOPERATIONS ANALYSIS
The proposed site plan indicates a car wash queuing araa accommodating approximately 4
vehicles, without blocking other on-site traffic movements, or driveway traffic from Bonita Glen
Drive (see Figure 1). Vehicles exiting the car wash along the west side of the sita are not
prDje:te:j to adversely impact either the on-site or off-site circulation systems.
i r, \"1. ajove referenced National Traffic Study for the Mobil Oil Corporation, it was determined
'",oi c,: a:i tr,e service station sites with car washas, the average number of vehicles observed
" I~,e car wash queue was less than 3. The average rate of servica for these car washes was
arDen::! 4 minutes per vehicle. Itshould be noted that all of the car washes included in the Mobil
stv::'f featured a "roll over" operation. The rollover cer wash is typically an unattended
c:cralior ir which the customer: 1) deposits a coin or enters a code number on a key pad at
:",~ f>,.,::a'1ce to the car wash tunnel; 2) drives the vehicle into the tUMeI, where it remains
S:E: :r,arf while spray nozzles and bNshes roll over the vehicle; 3) exits the tunnel; and 4)
C-.LS c~ the site or parks to dry off the vehicle.
_ ~c;-.:rast tre proposed Unocal car wash operates on a continuous conveyer belt system at
: ;~ o!E' rate of service (approximately 2 minutes per vehicle) than a roll over car wash. Unocal
:'.' v.,HM fa:i:ities use state-of-the-art equipment which provides the most efficient operation.
;.S(;, a:te~dants stationed at the car wash entrance may .xpedite the service during peak use
>'''':::~s by monitoring and controlling the rate of the car wash. as n.cessary. Additionally, the
~. 'C';c,osec Unocal car wash includes an internal blower that dries the vehicle in the tunnel,
cc,et!:>y leaving very little water on the vehicles upon exiting the site. Furthermore, the service
staron site v.ill be designed to retain and properly drain any excess water Nnoff from the
vEhicles as they exit the tunnel. Given the estimated vehicle queuing capacity, the variable
rate of car wash service. and the type of car wash system proposed. no adverse impacts are
er\ti:::ipated from the operations of the car wash.
rA~KINC ANALYSIS
The proposed service station site plan sha.vs thatin additiOn to the 12 parking spaces provided
r.ext to the fuel pumps, 6 marked parking spaces are provided on the site. Including 1
r,o'ld::.a?ped parking space. The City's parking requirement for this project is e spaces.
Tn. p'oposed uses on the site (i.... gasolin. and car wash) should not require any additional
103-";'19 spaces. Gasoline customers are anticipated to use only the spaces adjacent to the

transit, rides from others, and alternative modes of commuting reducing the demand for
ecnployee parKing.
On the basis of the above information. it is suggested that the number of parkjng spaces
p'ovided on-site should be adequate to accommodate customers, employees. and deliveries
during normal and peak demand periods. Further. the location of marked parting spaces do

the potential noise impacts due to the proposed Unocal Car Wash on the adjacent residential land
uses. Residential land uses are located to the south of the site. The residential land use is a multi-
family complex. Any significant noise impacts due to the proposed project on the adjacent
residential uses will be identified and mitigation measures will be suggested, if necessary.
1.1 Background Information on Noise
Sound is technically described in terms of the loudness (amplitude) of the sound and frequency
(pitch) of the sound. The standard unit of measurement of the loudness of sound is the decibel
(dB). Decibels are based on the logarithmic scale. In terms of human response to noise, a sound
10 dB higher than another is judged to be twice as loud; and 20 dB higher four times as loud; and
so forth. Everyday sounds normally range from 30 dB (very quiet) to 100 dB (very loud).
Since the human ear is not equally sensitive to sound at all frequencies, a special frequency-
dependent rating scale has been devised to relate noise to human sensitivity. The A-weighted
decibel scale (dBA) performs this compensation by discriminating against frequencies in a manner
approximating the sensitivity of the human ear. Community noise levels are measured in terms of
the "A,weighted decibel," abbreviated dBA. Exhibit 1 provides examples of various noises and
their typical A-weighted noise level. This exhibit is from the Chula Vista Noise Ordinance (Chapter
19.68 - Performance Standards and Noise Control).
1.2 Noise Ordinance
The City of Chula Vista has adopted a noise ordinance. The ordinance is designed to protect
adjacent sensitive land uses from non-transportation related noise sources such as car wash noise,
pump, fan, air-conditioning apparatus, mechanical equipment, and other activities that occur on
private property.
The City of Chula Vista has established exterior noise criteria for non-transportation related noise
which impacts adjacent noise sensitive properties. This criteria is given in terms of allowable noise
levels at the property boundary. Greater noise levels are permitted during the day (7 a.m. to IO
p.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. on weekends), as compared to the night-time period.
The City of Chula Vista has adopted noise criteria for residential properties, commercial properties,

The noise ordinance standards are in terms of the equivalent noise level (Leq). Leq is the sound
level corresponding to a steady-state sound level containing the same total energy as a time-varying
signal over a given sample period. LEQis the "energy" average noise level during the time period
of the sample. LEQ can be measured for any time period, but is typically measured for I hour.
The noise ordinance criteria is relaxed in areas where the ambient noise levels are high. That is, if
the ambient noise level is higher than the ordinance limits, then the limit is raised to the ambient
noise level.
The proposed car wash operation hours are from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. (gasoline pumping operations
may be operated much later in the day). The car wash project therefore is only concerned with the
daytime noise criteria.
2.0 AMBIENT NOISE MEASUREMENT LEVELS
Ambient noise levels were measured at two sites. The sites were selected to represent the
residential property boundaries to the south. The measurement sites are shown in Exhibit 2.
The measurements were made on August 29, 1995. Noise measurements were conducted during
the daytime hours between 1:30 and 3:00 p.m. The measurements were made with a Brne! &
Kjaer Type 2231 Sound Level Meter, and calibrated before and after each measurement series.
Noise measurements were made for a 20 minute period at each site. Due to the high level of traffic
noise, the noise measurement results were constant, and fairly consistent for both sites. The noise
measurement results are present in Leq noise levels as shown in Table 2. The maximum and
minimum noise levels during the monitoring period are also shown.

The resulting ambient noise measurement levels in Table 2 mainly reflected the nearby traffic noise
on 1-805 Freeway and surrounding roadways. This is a very busy intersection, and the noise
levels reflect this condition. The Leq noise levels are in the 60 dBA range.
2.1 CAR WASH NOISE MEASUREMENTS
The main noise sources associated with the proposed car wash will be the air dryer/blower. A coin
operated vacuum will also be used.
Noise measurements for coin vacuums were conducted by Mestre Greve Associates at car wash
facilities similar to the proposed car wash. Car wash noise levels were measured in the early
afternoon when the car wash facilities were relatively busy. Typical coin operated vacuum noise
levels were measured to be 75.9 dBA (at 12 feet from the source).
The proposed car wash will be using the dryer/blower manufactured by Worldwide Drying
Systems. The dryer measurement data was provided by J.C. Chemtech to the developer,
December 21, 1993. Based on the manufacturer noise measurement data, the proposed
dryer/blower including the silencer will generate a noise level of approximately 83 dBA at 5 feet
(roughly at the exit end of the tunnel). The dryer/blower represents the largest noise source for the
car wash, and therefore, the noise measurements will be used to represent the typical car wash
levels on the project site. The noise measurement data are shown in Table 3. It should be
emphasized that the noise levels in Table 3 represent source noise levels. In the following section
these noise levels will be projected to residential property boundary, and will include adjustments
for distance and noise barriers.

3.0 POTENTIAL CAR WASH NOISE LEVELS
The main noise sources associated with the proposed car wash will be the air dryerlblower and one
coin operated vacuum. Both of these sources are addressed.
The car wash proposes the use of a coin vacuum. At the time of this study the exact location of the
vacuum had not been determined. To minimize the vacuum's noise in the nearby residential area
we are recommending that the vacuum be located in from of parking location 4. The car wash
tunnel will act as a large noise banier shielding the vacuum noise from the residences to the south.
The main noise source from the car wash is the dryerlblower which will be located at the exit end
of the car wash. The car wash entrance is very much quieter than the exit end.
The noise levels from the vacuums and the car wash tunnel are presented below in Table 4 for the
two residential sites (Exhibit 2). These sites represent worst case locations at the residential
boundary near the site. The source noise levels have been adjusted for distance and noise banier
effects. Since the dryerlblower and and coin operated vacuums can operate a significant portion of
the time and are relatively constant while operating, they can be considered as Leq noise levels.

Site I is substantially over the noise criteria, and would clearly result in a violation of the noise
ordinance. Site I is near the exit end of the car wash. Site 2 is less than I dBA below the criteria
limit and is within the estimation error. Therefore, mitigation measures are recommended below
that address both Sites I and 2.
4.0 MITIGATION MEASURES
Mitigation measures are recommended below.
I) A masonry tunnel wall at the exit of the car wash tunnel should be constructed at a
height of 9.5 feet and extend for 28 feet past the exit of the tunnel (to the
transformer pad). At the entrance end of the tunnel, a soundwall of 7 feet is
recommended and should extend east for 21 feet and stop at the east edge of the
kiosk. A schematic of these walls are shown on Exhibit 3. The walls should be
constructed of a masonry block.
2) The coin operated vacuum should be located at the front of parking space #4.
3) To remain consistent with this analysis, the hours of operation should be restricted
to 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Additionally, the dryer used should be a Worldwide Dryerwith
silencer kit or similar, with a noise rating of 83 dBA at 5 feet or less.
With these mitigations in place, the noise levels at the nearby residential areas will be substantia11y
reduced. Table 5 shows the noise levels projected for each of the assessed receptor sites. These
noise levels are compared to the noise criteria levels determined and explained previously in the
report. In each case the resulting noise levels will be less than the noise criteria, and it projected
