Permitting and Enforcement Committee Agenda Item -f January 15, 1998 California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) The City of Stockton, as the lead agency, prepared an Environmental Impact Report (SCH# 90020718) for the proposed project. Board staff commented on the EIR in January 1994, and the lead agency provided written responses. A Statement of Overriding Considerations was prepared in accordance with State CEQA Guidelines Section 15093, which identified unavoidable visual & aesthetic and air quality impacts associated with the project. The Stockton City Council certified the EIR on September 6, 1994 and a Notice of Determination was filed with the State Clearinghouse on September 12, 1994. After reviewing the EIR for the proposed project, Board staff has determined that the EIR is adequate for the Board's evaluation of the proposed project for those project activities which are within this Agency's expertise and/or powers or which are required to be carried out or approved by the Board. 2. Consistency with State Minimum Standards (ERC 44009) In November 1997, Board staff was notified by the operator that landfill gas concentrations exceeded the lower explosive limit for methane (5%) in two monitoring probes (installed October 1997) along the northern permitted boundary, a violation of 27 CCR 20919.5 - Explosive Gases Control. Upon detection of the landfill gas, the operator followed the sequence of requirements provided in 27 CCR 20919.5(c). The City submitted a plan, dated November 26, 1997, to assess and remediate the migration of landfill gas. A Stipulated Agreement of Compliance (Stip) has been developed, but had not yet been issued prior to the preparation of this agenda item. Board staff will provide an update on the status for issuance of the Stip at the time of the Committee Meeting. V. ATTACHMENTS 1. Location Map 2. Site Map 3. Permit No. 39 -AA -0001 4.
