RECOMMENDATION:
Accept the findings of the Project Report/Environmental
Documentation (Scheduled "D") concluding that the project is
Categorically Exempt under CEQA and Categorically Excluded
under NEPA, and direct Staff to proceed with the preparation of
Plans, Specifications and Estimates (PS&E) for the Interchange
Improvements on the Dublin side Of the freeway only.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
Preparation of Plans, Specifications and Estimates for improving
the Dublin side of the freeway is estimated at $173,557. This will
require an amendment to HQE's contract, which is being presented
to the Council on a separate agenda statement. There are sufficient
monies in the 20% Set-Aside of the Tri-Valley Traffic Impact Fees
to fund the preparation of the PS&E.
DESCRIPTION: In November 2000, the City Council approved the preparation of
the Project Report and Environmental Document (PR/ED) for the 1-580/San Ramon Road-Foothill Road
Interchange Improvement Project. Staffs from Dublin and Pleasanton both participated in the preparation
of the PR/ED. However, because Pleasanton had previously chosen not to share the cost of preparing the
PR/ED, Dublin Staff decided to include in the PR/ED the possibility of staging the project, with the first
phase to consist of improvements desired only by the City of Dublin. This first phase is referred to as the
Minimum Project Alternative and consists of the following major features:

EA 284800
1. INTRODUCTION
This project proposes to modify the t-580 / San Ramon Road / Foothill Road Interchange in
order to eliminate weaving areas and improve traffic operations. The estimated cost of these
improvements is $3.78 million, which includes preliminary engineering, design,
construction and construction administration costs. This .Project Report has been prepared at
the request of both the City of Dublin and City of Pleasanton, with the City of Dublin acting
as the lead agency for this effort. The project is being funded through Tri-Valley Traffic
Impact Fees allocated to each city for regional transportation improvements. This project
has been assigned the Project Development Processing Category 5 because it has been
determined to be of minimal economic, social and environmental significance. The project
is Categorically Exempt under CEQA. and Categorically Excluded under N-EPA.
The proposed project will modify the existing cloverleaf (Caltrans Type L-10) interchange
by realigning both the.westbound and eastbound diagonal off-ramps to a tee intersection
with San Ramon Road/Foothill Road and removing the existing loop off-ramps in both
eastbound and westbound directions. The proposed configuration is a standard partial
cloverleaf (Caltrans Type L-9) interchange as shown in Figure 1. No right of way
acquisition will be required for the proposed project and no major utility relocations will
OCCur.
2. RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the proposed project be approved and proceed to the design phase. A
Cooperative Agreement should be negotiated between Caltrans and the City of Dublin to set
forth, each party's rights and responsibilities during design and construction;
The design phase of the project should account for staged construction in case of funding
shortfalls in the 2002/2003 FY. It is recommended that the first stage of construction consist
of modifications to the 1-580 westbound ramp system, specifically, realigning and widening
the westbound diagonal off-ramp to a signalized' tee intersection with San Ramon Road, and
removing the existing westbound loop off-ramp.
BACKGROUND
In the vicinity of this interchange, 1-580 is an east-west route connecting Castro Valley to
the west and Dublin/Pleasanton to the east. It also serves as a connector between 1-238 and
1-680. This interchange lies at the intersection of 1-580, San Ramon Road in Dublin and
Foothill Road in Pleasanton. Office, hotel and retail land uses surround the interchange with
a shopping center in the southeast quadrant. The proposed project is located within the city
limits of both Dublin and Pleasanton. Figure 2 shows the project Vicinity Map.

Project Report
04-AIa-580-KP R34.1/35.4
EA 284800
The existing interchange is a four-quadrant .cloverleaf (Caltrans Type Ltl0) interchange
providing free flow characteristics for'ail movements. It is limited in its capacity because of
short weaving distances between loop ramps. The available weaving distance for the 1-580
westbound to San Ramon Road' northbound movement is also limited due to its close
proximity to the Dublin BoUlevard/San Ramon Road intersection.
The existing configuration consists of eight single-lane ramps - four for each travel
direction. Both the westbound and eastbound travel directions include one diagonal off-
ramp, one loop off-ramp, one diagonal on-ramp, and one loop on-ramp. A collector-
distributor (C:D) road connects the off-ramps with the on-ramps in each direction. The
bridge structure provides two through northbound lanes, one northbound to westbound on-
ramp lane, two through southbound lanes, and one southbound to eastbound on-ramp 'lane.
A Project Study Report (PSR)'was approved by Caltrans on December 14, 2000, following
approval by the Dublin City Council in October 2000. The PSR included three alternatives
and identified the improvements contained in this Project Report (PR) as the preferred
alternative. It recommended proceeding with engineering and environmental studies of the
preferred alternative, leading to the preparation of this PR. These studies have not
uncovered any required mitigation or engineering features that differ substantially from the
PSR recommendations.
4. NEED and PURPOSE
A. Problem, Deficiencies, Justification
The short weaving distances mentioned above increase delays during the peak hours and
create operational deficiencies. The purpose of the project is to eliminate weaving between
vehicles traveling northbound on San Ramon Road and those entering from the westbound
off-ramp. Similarly, on the south side of the interchange, there is the need to eliminate
weaving between vehicles traveling southbound on Foothill Road and those entering from
the eastbOuiid off-ramp.
In the northbound arterial weaving segment, there are approximately 2600 vehicles in the
p.m. peak hour using the short 140 m weaving section between the westbound off-ramp and
Dublin Boulevard, .correlating to a weaving Level of Service (LOS) F. In the southbound
arterial weaving segment, there are approximately 1900 vehicles in the p.m. peak hour using
the available 110 m weaving section between the eastbound off-ramp and Canyon Way,
correlating to a weaving LOS E.
The proposed project will not only eliminate these local arterial weaving sections, but will
have the added benefit of eliminating the other four weaving sections within the interchange,
thus improving overall traffic operations. The proposed improvements will also Provide for
.better traffic management via new intersections, traffic signals and signal coordination.

EA 284800
B. Regional & System Planning
The proposed project is on the Interstate System (1-580) and is on the "eligible" list for the
Scenic Highway System, but not yet officially designated as a scenic highway. Since the only
proposed modification to Route 580 is an eastbound off-ramp auxiliary lane, the project is
consistent with the Route .Concept Report, approved 5/7/85, which calls for the existing eight-
lane freeway section within the project limits.
The proposed project is not listed in the current Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) because it
is merely a local operational improvement and is not capacity increasing. The Metropolitan
Transportation Commission (MTC) reviewed the scope of the proposed project and concurred
with this opinion on May 16, 200.1. Therefore, conformity to regional and state plans for air
quality is not required.
This project is 100% locally funded with regional traffic impact fees collected by the Tri-
Valley Transportation Council (TVTC) for the Cities of Dublin, Pleasanton, Livermore, San
Ramon, Danville and the counties of Alameda and Contra Costa. Each jurisdiction is
allocated a portion of the collected fees to improve facilities within their jurisdiction. The
Cities of Dublin and Pleasanton will jointly fund this project using the 20% portion of these
fees collected within their jurisdictions.
C. Traffic
Following is a summary of the findings in the Traffic Operations Analysis Report prepared
by CCS Planning and Engineering dated October, 2000. Intersection and weaving Level of
Service (LOS) are shown for Existing, Future (2025) No Build and Future (2025) Proposed
Project conditions. The proposed project geometry is shown in Attachment A. Because the
purpose of this project is to eliminate weaving on the arterial (San Ramon Road/Foothill
Road) crossing 1-580, no freeway or ramp merge/diverge operations are summarized in this
document. Technical details of those elements can be found in the Traffic Operations
Analysis Report referenced above.
1. Existing Conditions
a. Intersection Operations
Intersection LOS was calculated for the existing signalized intersections at San Ramon
Road/Dublin Boulevard and Foothill Road/Dublin Canyon Road/Canyon Way using the
existing average peak hour volumes shown in Figure 3. As shown in Table 1 below,
both intersections currently operate at acceptable LOS during the peak hours.

b. Weaving Operations
Weaving operations were analyzed using the "Leisch Method" from Chapter 500 of the
!995 Highway Design Manual. Table 2 compares the A.M. and P.M. peak hour level of
service (LOS) along the weaving areas. The "Weaving" colunm indicates the LOS of
the vehicles conducting the weaving movement. The "Overall" column indicates the
LOS of the entire roadway encompassing the.weaving segment.

As shown in Table 2 above, peak hour traffic on San Ramon Road in the vicinity of the
1-580/San Ramon Road/Foothill Road Project is at the capacity of the existing cloverleaf
interchange. In particular, five of the six weaving sections at the interchange operate at
LOS E or F during one or both peak hours. Deficient weaving operations occur on

Foothill Road south of the eastbound off-ramp, on northbound San Ramon Road
between the westbound on-ramp and eastbound off-ramp, and on both of the collector-
distributor (C-D).roads paralleling I-580.
2. Future Conditions (2025)
The Tri-Valley Transportation Model was applied to provide A.M. and P.M. peak hour
traffic volumes for 2025 conditions. The traffic generated by the proposed West Dublin
Bart Station has been included in the 2025 projections. Figures 4 and 5 show the projected
volumes for the No Build and Proposed Project.' Future growth will increase peak hour
traffic demands by an average of 12% by 2025. These traffic increases will cause increased
congestion during peak periods. It should be noted that the proposed project does not have a
direct effect on mainline traffic and does not propose to remedy existing or future mainline
congestion.
a. Intersection Operations
Future intersection operations were evaluated using the same 1994 HCM Operations
methodology as the existing conditions analysis. For purposes of this comparative
analysis, existing lane geometrics and signal phasing were assumed at the two existing
intersections for the No .Build scenario. However, the two existing intersections were
assumed to be interconnected and coordinated with the two proposed ramp intersections
for-the Proposed Project scenario. In addition, both,scenarios assume that the City of
Pleasanton widening project shown in Attachment A will be constructed and Operational.

Improved traffic operations, as shown in Table 3, Mil be provided at all four study
intersections (the two existing intersections adjacent to the interchange and the two
proposed signals at the .off-ramps) with the proposed project geometry and proper signal
coordination. It is assumed that signal interconnect between all four signals will be
provided.
b. Weaving Operations
The proposed project shown in Attachment A will provide traffic signal control for off-
ramp traffic and will eliminate all six of the existing weaving sections at the interchange,
including the two. collector-distributor roads, northbound San Ramon Road north of I-
· 580 and southbound Foothill Road south of 1-580. This will greatly improve overall
operation ~of the interchange. As shoWn in Table 4 below, the existing weaving
· operations would continue to degrade if the proposed project were not constructed (No
Build).

3. Accident Data
Accident data for the interchange area for the three-year period from January 1, 1998 to
December 31, 2000 was obtained from Caltrans TASAS Table B data and is summarized in
Table 5. Intersection accident data was also obtained from the Cities of Dublin and
Pleasanton for the study areas located in each jurisdiction. The accident information includes
the numbers of fatal (F), fatal plus injury (F+I) and total(TOT) accidents on the study area
freeway, ramps and at intersections. The actual rates for the 1-580/San Ramon Road project
area are compared with statewide averages for similar facilities in urban areas.

Three year period from January 1, 1997 to December 31, 1999
Three year period from January 1, 1996 to December 31, 1998
No fatalities were .reported on freeway segments, freeway ramps or intersections during the
three-year periods. However, the total accident rates in the study area are higher than
statewide averages at two locations: 1) on eastbound 1-580 within the project 'limits and 2) at
the San Ramon Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection. A description of accidents occurring at
those two locations is summarized below. '
Eastbound 1-580 experiences significant congestion in the project vicinity due to its close
proximity to the 1-580/1-680 Interchange, which has been under construction since July 1998.
Caltrans reported a total of 90 accidents on.. eastbound 1-580 from 1998 to 2000. The number
of accidents reported for 1998, 1999, and 2000 were 28, 27, and 35 respectively. 67% of the
total number of accidents were rear-end collisions, 73% of which were caused by speeding.
71% of the total occurred during Clear weather and 86% during daylight hours.
The City of Dublin reported 53 accidents at the. intersection of San Ramon Road/Dublin
Boulevard from 1997 to t999. In 1997, 28 total accidents occurred and dropped to 10 in
1998. Of those 38 reported incidents, 31% were rear:end collisions and 77% occurred during
the daylight hours. No detail data is available for 1999. The installation of two new signals
and elimination of weaving areas proposed by this project should serve to decrease the
accident rates at the intersection of Sant Ramon Road/Dublin Boulevard by slowing down
traffic .and substantially decreasing conflict areas. The City wilt continue to monitor and
evaluate the accident rates at this intersection.

A. Proposed Project
Engineering Features
The proposed project will modify the interchange by realigning both the westbound and
eastbound diagonal off-ramps to a tee intersection with San Ramon Road/Foothill Road and
removing the existing loop off-ramps in both directions. The proposed configuration is a
standard partial cloverleaf (Cattrans Type L-9) interchange as shown .in Attachment A. No
right of way acquisition will be required for the proposed project and no major utility
relocations will occur.
Major features of the proposed project include:
· Realignment of the westbound 1-580 off ramp terminus to a tee intersection at San
Ramon Road and installation of a new signal;
· Realigranent of the eastbound 1-580 off ramp terminus to a tee intersection at Foothill
Road and installation of a new signal;
· Removal of westbound 1-580 to southbound Foothill Road loop off-ramp;
· Removal of eastbound 1-580 to northbound San Ramon Road loop off, ramp;
· Widening the westbound diagonal off-ramp to two lanes;
· Widening the eastbound diagonal off-ramp to two lanes and providing a 210 m auxiliary
lane on 1-580; and
· Construction of a retaining wall along the eastbound 1-580 off-ramp auxiliary lane.
Non-Standard Features
The proposed project has one mandatory and five advisory non-standard features. The
mandatory superelevation rate of 12% will not be provided at the westbound and eastbound
offramp termini. The advisory non-standard features are as follows:
1. Superelevation runoff lengths less than required at both westbound and eastbound off-
ramp termini and the westbound loop on-ramp.
2. Several locations will not provide 2/3 runoff on the tangent and 1/3 within the curve.
3. The eastbound off-ramp will have a vertical curve length less than the 60 m minimum
required.
4, The westbound off-ramp will connect to San Ramon Road where the grade is greater
than 4%.
5. The eastbound off-ramp auxiliary lane will not be 400 m in length.
Design exception fact sheets were reviewed by Gordon Brown, Design Reviewer for
Division of Design and approved in October, 2000 for the mandatory exception and
advisory exceptions 1 through 4 listed above. ,4 supplemental fact sheet for advisory
exception 5 was reviewed by Mr. Brown in ,4ugust 2001 and approved on ,2001.

Caltrans in October, 2000 (CU-EA 4373-151050). The installation of ramp metering at both

Road Interchange will be constructed with that project. HOV by-pass lanes and CHP
enforcement areas are proposed on both diagonal on-ramps, but not on the loop ramps.
Construction is anticipated in the 2002/2003 FY. No ramp metering facilities will be
constructed with this project due to the fact that none of the on-ramps are being impacted
and the project is not capacity increasing.
UtiH~_ and Other Owner Involvement
There are several utilities located within the project limits, including gas, water, overhead and
underground electrical service, telephone and television cable. One high-risk facility, a 600-
mm gas line, crosses under 1-580, the eastbound loop on-ramp and eastbound diagonal off-
ramp. Based on record drawings, the line is only encased within the limits of the mainline, but
not through the entire right of way on the south side of the interchange. During the PS&E
phase of the project, the gas line will be potholed to determine horizontal/vertical location and
an encroachment exception will be .requested from OPPD if the line is found to be in violation
of minimum depth requirements. Coordination with District Right of Way p~rsonnel indicates
that an encroachment exception would likely be granted in lieu of relocation and therefore the
PR cost estimate assumes conservatively that the line is not deep enough and a concrete cap .
will be required.
Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) underground electrical facilities are located on the east side
of San Ramon Road/Foothill Road. These facilities will need tO be relocated further east a
few meters to accommodate the roadway widening in this area.
Highway Planting
Landscaping plans will be prepared for the median areas north and south of the proposed ramp
intersections as well as for the areas being obliterated at the existing eastbound and westbound
diagonal off-ramps. Close coordination with Caltrans District 4 Landscape Architecture and
Landscape Maintenance branches will continue through the PS&E phase to ensure appropriate
measures are met for replacement planting. The landscaping and irrigation plans will be
prepared as part of the highway construction contract and not as a separate contract after
highway construction is complete.
Erosion Control
Appropriate erosion control treatments will be included in the project during the PS&E
phase. Normally used treatments, such as mulch chips, tree/shrub planting, hydroseed
applications and blankets/mats will be considered. An appropriate Storm Water Pollution

B. Rejected Alternatives
Since the purpose 0fthe project is to reduce weaving along the arterial, the only other build
alternative .that will meet the purpose and need would require creation of a non-standard
interchange type. The weaving .areas discussed earlier could be eliminated by removing the
diagonal off-ramps in each direction and bringing the existing loop off-ramps .to a tee
(signalized) intersection at the arterial (San Ramon Rd/Foothill Rd.) This alternative was
not considered practical and was rejected during the PSR phase for the following reasons:
The weaving sections on the C-D road between the existing loop on/off ramps currently
operate at LOS F during the peak periods. Adding the diagonal off-ramp traffic to these
areas would only exacerbate this situation.
A substantial portion of the loop off-ramps would need to be widened to provide
adequate storage for vehicles destined in both the north- and southbound directions.
· A non-standard interchange type would be created, potentially causing driver confusion.
6. CONSIDERATIONS REQUIRING DISCUSSION
A. Hazardous Waste
An Initial Site Assessment (ISA) was prepared in May, 2000 and finalized in October, 2000.
With the exception of additional studies for aerial deposited lead, there were no potential
hazardous materials found in the immediate project footprint. The aerial deposited lead
investigations wilI be performed during the PS&E phase of the project prior to construction
excavations.
B. Value Analysis
A Value Analysis (VA) StudY was not conducted for' this project due to the fact that it has a
small construction value and is a local operational improvement proposal with a limited
number of altemative ways to meet the purpose of the project.
C. Resource Conservation
In order to conserve energy and nonrenewable resources, components of the existing facility
will be reused as much as possible. Existing pavement structural sections, if found to be
adequate, wilt be incorporated into the proposed modifications. In addition, street lighting,
signs, existing drainage features, material removed during roadway excavation operations, etc.
will be reused or salvaged to the greatest extent possible.
D. Right of Way Issues

_ EA 284800
Prevention Plan will also be implemented during construction to control sedimentation,
erosion .and other pollutants.
NonMotorized and Pedestrian Features
The-existing facility has pedestrian sidewalks on the east side of San RamorffFoothill Road
between Dublin Boulevard .and Canyon Way which the proposed facility will maintain. No
. pedestrian facilities are present on the west side and none are proposed with the project.
There are no formal bikeways within the existing facility, although cyclists are permitted to
ride on San Ramon and Foothill Roads. No upgrading of the current bikeways is proposed.
Needed Roadway Rehabilitation and Upgrading
Most of the existing pavements within the proposed project limits do not appear to require
substantial rehabilitation. In areas 'of ramp widening, an appropriate AC will be applied
during construction prior to final striping of the facility. The area on San Ramon Road
between the proposed westbound off-ramp signal and Dublin Boulevard will also be
investigated for upgrading, but preliminary visual inspections suggest that an AC overlay
will suffice in this area as well.

There is no right of way required for the proposed project. A Right of Way Data Sheet is
included in Attachment C.
E. Environmental Issues
A Preliminary Environmental Assessment Report (PEAR) was prepared in August, 2,000
recommending that the following studies be prepared .during the Project Report phase in
order to support a Categorical Exemption/Exclusion 0N'-EPA/CEQA):
Air O_uality
A qualitative .air quality study was prepared to evaluate project conformity with the State
Implementation Plan (SIP). The project was determined to conform to the SIP and no
mitigation measures are required.
Biological Resources
A Natural Environment Study Report (NESR) was prepared in June 2001 due to the
proximity of Dublin Creek, which is habitat for the federally threatened California red-
legged frog. The species has been recorded in ponds near the headwaters of Dublin
Creek, but there are no habitat and no records for this species in the project area. The
Final Mitigation Measures and Summary of Findings and Conclusions are included in
Attachment D.
Cultural Resources
Technical studies addressing cultural resources - an Archaeological Survey Report
(ASR), Historic Architecture Survey Report (HASR) and Historic Property Survey
Report (HPSR) were prepared along with an Area of Potential Effect (APE) map in
coordination with Caltrans and FHWA. The HPSR, HASR and ASR concluded that
there are no properties eligible for ihe National Historic Register nor the Cali'fomia
Register. Concurrence on these findings was received from the Office of State Historic
Preservation (SHPO) on
Noise
An environmental noise analysis was conducted for this project to address potential for
noise increases for offices, hotels and residences in the southwest and northeast
quadrants of the project. The noise studies found that the project does not increase noise
levels significantly and therefore no noise mitigation measures are required.
The project is Categorically Exempt under Class 3 of the State CEQA guidelines and is
Categorically Excluded under NEPA. There are no wetlands or flood plains within the project
limits and all technical studies performed during the PR phase indicated the project would
have an insignificant level of impact on the environment.
F. Air Quality Conformity

1-580/San Ramon Rd/Foothill Rd Interchange
Project Report
04-Ala-580-KP R34.1/35.4
EA 284800
The proposed project is.not listed in the current Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) because it
is merely a local operational improvement and is not capacity increasing. The Metropolitan
Transportation Commission (MTC) reviewed the scope of the proposed project and concurred
with this. opinion on May 16, 2001 (see Attachment D). Therefore, conformity to regional and
state plans for air quality is not reqUired.
G. Title VI Considerations
As mentioned previously~ Sidewalks will be perpetuated on the east side of San
Ramon/Foothill Road to provide pedestrian access across 1-580 to/fi.om Dublin and
Pleasanton. Where sidewalks require relocation/extension due to the proposed project
features, curb ramps will be provided to meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
requirements. Some rerouting of pedestrians will be required temporarily during construction.
7. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS ~IS APPROPRIATE
· Route Matters
A "Resolution of Change" will be prepared upon approval of the CE/Cat Ex in order to
request that the Freeway Agreement be updated sometime in the furore to reflect the revised
connections at the interchange. There are no New Connections proposed.
· Permits
The City of Dublin will obtain an Encroachment Permit for construction within State Right of
Way. In addition, a permit will be obtained fi.om'the City of Pleasanton for work within their
jurisdiction. No problems in obtaining these permits are anticipated.
· Cooperative Agreements
A Final Cooperative Agreement is being prepared between Caltrans and the City of Dublin
covering the design and construction phases of this project. Under this agreement, the City
will be responsible for preparation of the Project Report/Environmental Document, the
Plans, Specifications and Estimate (PS&E) and award and administration of the construction
contract. Caltrans will provide design oversight for all phases of the project. The Draft
Cooperative Agreement has been prepared and is included in Attachment E.
· OtherAgreements
A separate agreement will be executed between the City of Dublin and City of Pleasanton
since the project will be jointly funded by both cities.

A signal maintenance agreement will be required between the Cities and Caltrans. At this
time it is assumed that Caltrans will be responsible for operation and maintenance .of the two
proposed signals at the off-ramp termini. A maintenance agreement covering landscaping,
irrigation, and other roadway features will also be required. The respective maintenance
responsibilities of each party .wilt be determined during the PS&E and/or construction phase
of the project.
· Transportation Management Plan for Use During Construction
A traffic,handling plan will be prepared during the PS&E phase of the project to minimize
traffic delays and ensure safe operations during construction. It is anticipated that
traditional traffic handling practices will be sufficient for this project.
· Stage Construction
Due to the possibility of funding constraints, this project may be staged. The first stage of the
project would consist of constructing all improvements on the north side of 1-580. The
westbound off-ramp would be widened to two lanes and realigned to a signalized tee
intersection with San Ramon Road. The existing westbound loop off-ramp would be
obliterated, and the third northbound lane on San Ramon Road would become a through lane
rather than a westbound 1-580 ONLY lane. This stage is referred to as the Minimum Project
Alternative (IVIPA)and is shown in Attachment F. The estimated construction cost of the
MPA is $1.23 million as shown in Attachment G. Right of Way Data Sheets are shown in
Attachment H for the MPA.
The first stage of the project would have independent utility, and traffic operations for the
future year 2025 would operate at the LOS shown below in Table 6. All study intersections
would operate at acceptable levels of service (LOS D or better) in the horizon year.

Construction of the MPA would eliminate three of the six-existing weave areas within the
project. As shown in Table 7, most of the remaining weave areas would operate at LOS F in
both the AM and PM peak hours. The exception is the eastbound loop off-ramp to westbound
loop on-ramp, which is projected..to operate at LOS D/E in the horizon year.

Air Quality Conformity
Dear Mr. Petrites:
This letter is in regard to the above project, with respect to the requirements for quantitative air
quality modeling. Ms. Melinda Rivasplata of PAR Environmental Services, the environmental
consultant for the project, spoke with you by telephone on April 23 about this question. We are
enclosing a brief project description and project diagram so that you will have a better
understanding of what the project involves.
As you can see from.the attached project description, the project is a local operational
improvement only that does not, in our 'opinion, have regional significance and, therefore, should
be exempt fi-om quantitative air quality modeling. We are requesting your concurrence in order
that the Cattrans/FHWA review and approvhl of the. air quality technical study and project
environmental document can be obtained without any unnecessary delay.
We appreciate your assistance with this matter. If you have any questions about the project
please contact Ms. Heidi Ouren at (510) 763-4895.

FINAL MITIGATION MEASURES
I-$80/SAN RAMON ROAD AND FOOTHILL ROAD
INTERCHANGE PROJECT
ALAMEDA COUNTY, 'CALIFORNIA
June 13, 2001
1. Avoid Indirect Impacts to Oaks
The following measures will minimize or avoid indirect impacts to interior live oaks
near construction areas:
a) Avoid lowering or elevating the ground level in the immediate vicinity of the tree
trunk. If it is absolutely necessary to raise the soil level in the vicinity of the tree, place
a protective collar of cement or treated lumber at a minimum of six feet from the trunk.
b) Avoid compaction with heavy vehicles within the dripline of oaks, especially if soil is
wet.
c) Avoid removing soil, leaves, and grasses growing under oaks, as these protect the roots
during the hot summer months.
d) Avoid building or paving beneath the dripline of oaks.
e) Avoid watering oaks in summer. Landscaping in the vicinity of oaks should not require
watering.
2. Replace Oaks Lost During Construction
In accordance with Caltrans recommendations, live oaks lost during construction wiI be
replaced as part of the landscaping plan for this project. The Caltrans Landscape Department
typically assigns ratios for replacement, usually at 5:1 ratios. The replacement trees should be
native species preferably coastal live oaks.
3. Implement Water Quality Protection Measures
Potential instream impacts to Dublin Cre.ek's aquatic resources and fisheries can be
minimized by adherence to State Standard Specifications for avoidance of water pollution
(Section 7-1.01G). These measures include detailed recommendations for keeping heavy
machinery out of the water, limiting the amount of material (excavated or construction
materials) that enter the stream, and maintaining flows at all times. The State Standard
Specifications require the contractor to prepare a plan to control water pollution during
construction.
The following measures are recommended to minimize water quality impacts:
Protect creek from toxic discharge. The contractor shall be required to follow pertinent
paragraphs of the Caltrans manual, California Standard Specifications, Section, 7 - 1.01G
which begins, "The .contractor shall exercise every reasonable precaution to protect
streams .... from pollution with fuels, oils, bitumen, calcium chloride, and other harmful
materials..." Construction byproducts and pollutants such as oil, cement, and washwater
shall be prevented from discharging into 'the stream and .shall be collected and removed
from the site. No equipment may be parked adjacent to the stream charmel. Equipment
may be refueled and serviced at an "equipment laydown" area out of the immediate
watershed of Dublin Creek.
Control erosion. Silt fencing (or filter fabric) shall be used to catch any short,term
erosion or sedimentation that may inadvertently occur. Measures may include but not be
limited to the use of sediment basins, hay bales, silt fences. This requirement corresponds
to California Standard Specifications, Section 7-1.01G, ~Where working areas encroach
on live streams, barriers to adequately protect the flow of muddy water into streams shall
be constructed and maintained between working areas and streams..." Ditches should be
installed at- the top of the cut/toe of fill areas and the bare slopes should be revegetated
with non-invasive, native vegetation found within the project study area.
SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND CONCLUSION
Survey Dates and Personnel
PAR wildlife biologist Susan Sanders and botanist/wetland specialist Virginia Dains
surveyed the project area on March 16, 200I.
Affected Environment
The project area is a highly disturbed, urbanized environment with no remnants of
natural habitat remaining adjacent to 1-580 or San Ramon and Foothill Roads. Landscape
plantings and disturbed non-native grassland are the only two vegetation types in the project
area. The soil and topographic setting are all the result of construction of the existing
interchange and do not represent natural landscape fragments. These fragmented patches of
vegetation are of low value to wildlife, providing habitat only for disturbance-tolerant species .
Twenty-seven coast live oak trees (Quercus agrifolia) grow south of 1-580, west of the
interchange( and all but four of these are clustered in a strip along Foothill Road. These four
oaks occur at the southwestern edge of the project area, on the steep embankment between
Dublin Canyon Road and east-bound 1-580.
Waters of the United States
No waters of the United States are present within the work areas. The channel of
Dublin Creek flows under the interchange and adjacent to it in a concrete channel. The
channel of Dublin Creek is a water of the United States,-but is outside of the proposed project
area. No wetlands under jurisdiction of the Corps of Engineers are present in the project area.
A roadside drainage on the southwestern portion of the site follows a concrete and asphalt
channel that eventually enters Dublin Creek underground. This drainage is constructed in an
upland and is not regulated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
Special Status Species
No special stares species are likely to occur in or near the project area. California red-
legged frogs 'have been recorded in ponds near the headwaters of Dublin Creek, but there is no
habitat and no records for this species in the project area.

iii ~ Final Report
1-580/San Ramon/Foothill Road Interchange
(PAR Ref. No. 00-849)
Project Effects
Realignment and widening of off-ramps and removal of loop off-ramps will disturb the
ruderal habitat adjacent to 1-580, but will not impact any natural plant cOmmunities~ waters of
the United States, or any significant natural resources. No habitat for special status species
occurs within the project area, and no direct, indirect, or cumulative effects to special status
species will result from implementation of the proposed project. Potential effects to plants and
animals consist of loss of four interior live oaks growing on the .embankment at the southwest
edge of 1-580: These four oaks are multi-stemmed and range is size from 20 cm (8 in)
diameter-at-breast height (DBH) to 35 cm (14 in) DBH. The loss .of four live Oak trees is
cOnsidered a less than substantial adverse impact to biological resources. TheSe trees are in an
urbanized,, highly disturbed setting, and are fragmented from any natural community
The oak t~ees that are clustered along the 1-580 off-ramp to Foothill Road that are near
but not within the construction impact zone cOuld also be adversely 'affected by construction.
Mitigation recommendations will be implemented to protect these trees from inadvertent impacts.
No work is proposed in or .near waters of the United States, but construction activitie~
that disturb the soil could eventually result in sedimentation to. Dublin Creek. Increased
sedimentation could adversely affect fish and other aquatic resources, as could the accidental
introduction of washwater, solvents, oil, chemical wastes, cement, or other pollutants. These
potential effects will be minimized by adherence to State Standard Specifications for avoidance
of water pollution (Section 7-1.01.G), and by compliance with National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination Systems permit requirements
