' John Funderburg, Principal Planner <br /> October 30, 2018 <br /> Paige 18 <br /> • "The County shall strive to ensure that hazardous materials and wastes do <br /> not contaminate air;water,or soil resources."Getteral Plan Public lieulth <br /> and Safety Flentent, referenced in SDEIR at IV.A-6. <br /> 15 The Project is clearly inconsistent with bath policies. It would pose-a threat to adjacent <br /> (cont.) fanning opei-ations becauac it would likely worsen already contaminated groundwater. In <br /> addition, the new landfill cells would increase the risk of crop contamination due to the <br /> landfill's inability to control litter. The EIR should be revised to include an analysis of <br /> these General Pian inconsistencies. <br /> H. The SDEIR Must Re Itevised and Recirculated, <br /> Under California law,this SDEIR cannot properly forin the basis of final EIR, <br /> support the findings required by CEQA,car justify the County's approval of tate Proicct. <br /> To eon•eet the numerous en-or; and ornissions identified above,the document recltures a <br /> complete revision. CEQA and Ilic C'F:QA Ctiridelines require recirculation of a draft EIR <br /> 16 when: (1) the addition of significant new infnu7natitm to the FIR after liuhlie notice is <br /> given of the availability of the DF.1R but before certification,or(2) the draft EiR is so <br /> "fundamentally and basically inadequate and conclusory in nature that nieaningl'ul public <br /> review and comment were precluded."CEQA Guidelincas § 15088.5. Hein.,because the <br /> original SDEllk was wholly inadequate, any revisions to the SDEIR must be recirculated <br /> fbr public review and comment. <br /> U, Conclusion <br /> For the reasons set tort! above, we respeciftilly request that no furflier <br /> consideration be given 10 the proposed Project until in El is prepared and circulated that <br /> ' fully complies with CBQA, <br /> Very truly yours, <br /> SHUTE, lvlMALY & WEINBERGER LLP <br /> lr1 ,,gyre, <br /> Laurel L. lmpett, AiCP, Urban Planner <br /> Rachel B.
