The project will encompass <br /> approximately twenty acres of the 31.4-acre site and will be built in three phases. Phase 1 will include six <br /> acres of composting area, an office, and parking. Phases 2 and 3 will each be a seven-acre expansion of <br /> the composting area. Phase 2 will be completed within two years, and Phase 3 will be completed within <br /> three years.

The ground material will be turned <br /> periodically as needed with a windrow turning machine to maintain the proper temperature and humidity <br /> for the rapid breakdown of the green waste into compost. The finished product will be kept in windrows <br /> until transported off-site. <br /> Recommendation <br /> Approval. <br /> San Joaquin County PA-05007261Sanchez <br /> Community Development Page 1 <br />
