Has there been a change in operator? <br />part of the project description. <br />E <br />If so, this should also be <br />Will acceptance of additional wastes result in a vertical <br />expansion of this facility? If so, this should be addressed in <br />the project description, and potential impacts and mitigations <br />should be thoroughly discussed in the environmental document. <br />Where is the additional waste originating? Is it coming from out <br />of the County? If so, what agreements have been made? <br />One part of the document states that the proposal to increase the <br />permitted daily capacity from 850 to 1,200 cubic yards per day. <br />Please refer to page 11, Item 13, where the increase is stated to <br />be from 850 to 1,200 tons. The units should be consistent <br />throughout the document. <br />Initial Study Item 3. Water <br />According to the document, mitigation measures include <br />continuance of monitoring the ground and surface water at the <br />site for contamination. Additionally, the onsite drainage system <br />will be continuously monitored and maintained at safe levels. <br />Monitoring comprises only a part of mitigation. It would be <br />helpful if the negative declaration included a diagram of <br />the onsite drainage plan with an explanation of how it <br />functions. Also, the document should, at a minimum, provide <br />a description of the monitoring that is ongoing at this <br />facility. <br />Initial Study Item 9. Natural Resources <br />The document states that increased traffic on-sitLwould cause an <br />increase in fuel usage. It further states that earlier than <br />scheduled site closure would negate any interim fuel usage. <br />Fuel usage is not "negated" by indirect means such as <br />closure of a facility. Once fuel is used, it's gone. <br />Enitial Study Item 17. Human Health <br />Is there a load checking program or a hazardous waste screening <br />program at this site. If there is, it should be described in the <br />document. If there is not, staff recommend that these programs <br />be implemented as soon as possible. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to review this proposed negative <br />declaration. Staff request a copy of the negative declaration <br />which is intended for local adoption prior to the public hearing. <br />If you have any questions regarding these comments, or require <br />
