• • Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Page I-2 • Forward Inc. Landfill 2018 Expansion Project • • Increase the remaining landfill capacity by approximately 32.0 million cubic yards (cy) to approximately 54.0 million cubic yards (cy). All of the increase would be Class II landfill space and would extend the landfill closure date to approximately 20391. • • Relocate approximately 3,000 feet of the South Fork of South Littlejohn Creek(which currently traverses the landfill) to the southeastern boundaries of the site to provide • additional separation of the creek from the landfill. The relocated creek will be ap- • proximately 3,200 feet in length. • • Allow cannery waste processing in areas of site that are not being used for disposal at • the time. • The Board of Supervisors certified the Forward Landfill Expansion Final Environmental Im- • pact Report however the project application required an override to the Airport Land Use • Plan by the County Board of Supervisors, which was not approved. In 2014, Forward proposed a smaller increase in permitted landfilling capacity that did not include the previously proposed expansion of landfilling operation on the 184-acre Brocchi- ni parcel. This proposed increase in landfill acreage was entirely within the boundary of the • 567-acres permitted under the current land use permit (UP-00-0007/ER-00-0002) approved • by the Board of Supervisors on April 8, 2003. A Draft Supplemental FIR (DSEIR) was circu- • lated for this proposed expansion in December 2014 and comment were received, but For- • ward abandoned the project before the Final Supplemental FIR was completed. The 2018 Expansion Project described in this Supplemental EIR is very similar to the 2014 proposal. It has a smaller increase in permitted landfilling capacity that does not include the • any expansion of landfilling operations onto the Brocchini parcel. The additional proposed • landfill acreage is entirely within the boundary of the 567-acres permitted under the current • land use permit (UP-00-0007/ER-00-0002) approved by the Board of Supervisors on April 8, • 2003. The 2018 Expansion Project would make the following changes to the currently permitted landfill: • Landfilling of an 8.7-acre parcel in the northeast portion of the site within the current- ly permitted landfill boundary. • • Landfilling of approximately 8.6 acres in the south area • • The south area expansion would require realigning about 2,900 feet of the South Fork • of South Littlejohn Creek to a 3,300-foot alignment along the southern and eastern • boundaries of the site, along with a new bridge across the creek. • The expansion would increase total landfill capacity by up to 8.420 million cubic yards beyond currently permitted levels, which would increase the remaining Class • • 'The 2013 FHIR estimated closure dates with and without that project of 2039 and 2021,respectively. However,2014 estimated closure dates with and without the 2012(previously proposed)project are 2045 and 2026,respectively. • • • •
