Tom Terpstra March 2, 1999 Page Two we have agreed to notify all trucking firms, utilized by various Contractors, and to post a "Warning To All Drivers" exiting the plant at the scales, 'Which will state the county is aware of this practice and will monitor these activities for violators . 2 . Trucks Parked on River Road: This practice has been somewhat relieved by the Silo installation; however, our Platt Manager has agreed to open the scales an hour earlier to eliminate some of the truck backup, as needed, for hauls to major projects . Through notification to dispatch of various trucking firms we will attempt to reduce or eliminate parking along River Road. 3 . Revision to Approved Actions : This revision allows the plant to operate for another 29 years plus 2 years for reclamation of plant site. Our aggregate sources are all east of the facility and there are no prospects for aggregate sources west of the facility contemplated. New sources only replace depleting sources and do not increase production at the plant. At the present time we have permitted sources for approximately 30 years depending upon the demand. You have requested notice of any pending applications for new aggregate sources be sent to Mr. Stewart in the future, regardless of their location. As agreed, we have no problem with this notification as it pertains to the Munn & Perkins Facility, and will provide appropriate information to Mr. Stewart accordingly. In his letter, Mr. Stewart also addressed hazards associated with the trucks exiting and entering the plant. In our experience, for the past 15-20 years, there has been one accident about 7 years ago, near the plant driveway, which it was determined the truck driver did not contribute to, nor held responsible for the accident. Truck crossing signs east and west of the plant entrance have been in place for many years, in accordance with Public Works requizemerts, as warnings for vehicular traffic . In closing, this plant has been operating at this site since 1956 and serves the eastern portion of San Joaquin County. As the only plant in this area there is a substantial savings of tax dollars for public works projects as well as a major reduction of truck traffic through the county.
