Unless otherwise noted, all identified impacts are considered significant adverse impacts. The corresponding mitigation measures, unless otherwise noted, would be sufficient to reduce impacts to a less than significant level. For impacts that are less than significant, CEQA does not require mitigation measures. Consistency With County General Plan and Other Regional Plans Impact 4.1-1 Consistency with the goals and policies of the County's General Plan. As discussed in the preceding section, the proposed TMRF is consistent with the goals and policies of the County's General Plan. Mitigation 4.1-1 No mitigation measure is required or recommended. Impact 4.1-2 Consistency with the City of Tracy's Urban Management Plan. Although the site is not within the City of Tracy, it has been included within the Planning Area by the City of Tracy. As discussed in the preceding section, the proposed TMRF is also consistent with the recently adopted City of Tracy Urbam Management Plan. Mitigation 4.1-2 No mitigation measure is required or recommended. Compatibility With Adjacent Uses Impact 4.1-3 Conflicts with surrounding agricultural uses. The proposed project is similar in nature to the surrounding aggregate operations to the north and west. Because agricultural operations exist to the east and south, there is the potential for land use conflicts with these agricultural uses. Because the TMRF will be developed in the bottom of a 30 -foot -deep pit, and because it will be fenced and landscaped, it will be buffered from surrounding agricultural uses. Because of the project design and layout, and that it is a commercial/industrial use, the normal land use conflicts between agricultural and urban uses such as noise, chemical drift, trespass, and vandalism are not anticipated, and this is considered to be a less than significant impact. Mitigation 4.1-3 No mitigation measure is required or recommended. Impact 4.1-4 Potential impact to aviation in the area. The site is located within the Horizontal Surface Area of Tracy Airport approximately one mile from the airport runway. Because sorting, recycling, and transfer operations will be conducted indoors, and because refuse will not be disposed of at this site, this is ER -93-1 -32- (9-27-93)
