. . . 28. IMPACT ON INFRASTRUCTURE AND PUBLIC SERVICES EAW: WILL NEW OR EXPANDED UTILITIES, ROADS, OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE, OR PUBLIC SERVICES BE REQUIRED TO SERVE THE PROJECT? _ NO.x. YES IF YES, DESCRIBE THE NEW OR ADDmONAL INFRASTRUCTURE/SERVICES NEEDED. (ANY INFRASTRUCTURE THAT IS A "CONNECTED ACTION" WITH RESPECT TO THE PROJECT MUST BE ASSESSED IN THE EA W; SEE "EA W GUIDELINES" FOR DETAILS.) AUAR: This item should first of all summarize information on physical infrastructure presented under other items (such as 6, 19, and 22). Other major infrastructure of public services not covered under other items should be discussed as well - this includes major social services such as schools, police, fire, etc. As noted above and in the "EA W Guidelines, " the RGU must be careful to include project- associated infrastructure as an explicit part of the A UAR review if it is to be exempt from project-specific review in the future. As previously detailed in Items 6, 13 and 18, existing public water and sanitary sewer services can accommodate the additional needs of the proposed campus. Lateral line extensions from the existing water and sanitary sewer mains in Fernwood Avenue will be required for the new buildings. Storm water treatment and conveyance infrastructure will be necessary as described in Item 17. Item 6 describes roadway improvements planned for the Guidant campus. Increased fire and police protection will need to be provided to the area with the proposed expansion. However, the need for these services has been anticipated by the city and will be provided, as required, as the site develops. As there is no residential land use associated with the planned site development, no impacts to the local school system will result. 29. CUMULATIVE IMPACTS EAW; MINNESOTA RULE PART 4410.1700, SUBPART 7, ITEM B REQUIRES THAT THE RGU CONSIDER THE "CUMULATIVE POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF RELATED OR ANTICIPATED FUTURE PROJECTS" WHEN DETERMINING TIlE NEED FOR AN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT. IDENTIFY ANY PAST, PRESENT OR REASONABLY FORESEEABLE FUTURE PROJECTS THA T MAY INTERACT WITH THE PROJECT DESCRIBED IN THIS EA W IN SUCH A WAY AS TO CAUSE CUMULATIVE IMPACTS. DESCRIBE THE NATURE OF THE CUMULATIVE IMP ACTS AND SUMMARIZE ANY OTHER A V AILABLE INFORMATION RELEVANT TO DETERMINING WHETHER THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR Guidant Campus Master Plan Draft AUAR - 56- September 2002
