Describe the current depth of the ground water and depth to potable water: The depth of ground water and potable water is approximately ten feet. Describe any existing drainage courses or eroded areas on or near the project site(e.g. rivers,creeks,swales or drainage ditches): There is a drainage ditch running along State Route 4 which lies within the state's ROW.The distillery site is approximately one mile to the closest levee.

Describe agricultural land that will be lost as a result of the project(type of crops, acres,quality of soil, etc.):None.We will be using crops grown on-site to re-purpose facilities that were formerly used to process crops which moved overseas,particularly asparagus.Instead of taking away Ag use land,we are looking to create a profitable outlet for the grains that grow so well in the Delta. Describe any wildlife habitat on-site and species that are of may be present: Because the space used for this project is limited to existing agricultual processing facilities and employee parking,we do not foresee any disruption to any wildlife habitat. Describe any vegetation on-site by type and extent: Adjacent to but not included in the project site are large oleander bushes that cover a fence separating State Route 4 from farm buildings,a small grove of alder trees in a picnic area for farm employees,as well as wild blackberry bushes,cacti, and native grasses that grow along drainage ditches and levees throughout the island and delta area. Air Quality Describe air pollutants that may result from the project(e.g. construction related dust,vehicle trips per day,fire places, incinerators, etc.): Particulate Matter(PM)from grain receiving and handling; volatile organic compounds(VOCs)-principally ethanal-during aging and warehousing; water vapor emissions during aging.
