Clean San Joaquin has followed closely the County's <br /> processing of the applicant's proposals to expand the landfill. To this end,it commented <br /> extensively during the applicant's 2012 proposal to expand the landfill. <br /> Although the applicant now proposes a reduced disposal footprint in comparison to the ' <br /> 2012 proposal,it is clear that the current project would result in extensive environmental harm. <br /> Indeed,the County anticipates providing supplemental analysis for many,if not all,of the same <br /> environmental impact categories that were included in the 2012 EIR. Consequently,inasmuch as <br /> we anticipate similar issues to accompany the applicant's current proposal,we recommend the <br /> County review our April 6,2012 letter on the prior NOP. This letter is attached and is hereby <br /> incorporated by reference. <br /> Please keep me informed of all notices,hearings,staff reports,briefings,meetings,and ' <br /> other events related to the proposed Project. In addition,please notify me of the release of the <br /> draft supplemental EIR for the proposed landfill expansion Project. <br /> Very truly yours, 1 <br /> SHUTE,MIHALY &WEINBERGER LLP ' <br /> Laurel L.Impett,AICP,Urban Planner <br /> 1 <br /> cc: Jeannie and Michael LaForge <br /> 615227.1 1 <br /> r <br /> r <br />
