Giuseppe Sanfilippo <br /> San Joaquin County Planning Commission <br /> Re. Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration for Use Permit No.PA-1800316 of Ahmed <br /> Hussein(c/o Shack&Company) <br /> August 6,2020 <br /> Page 4 <br /> condition of approval is included in the Revised IS/ND. Additionally,in its January 17,2019 <br /> comment letter on the IS/MND,the Regional Water Quality Control Board(RWQCB) <br /> identified a number of applicable regulatory requirements,including waste discharge <br /> requirements and compliance with the Irrigated Lands Regulatory Program;a mitigation <br /> measure should be included to require compliance with this program and all permits identified <br /> by the RWQCB. A mitigation measure also should be included requiring documentation of <br /> how the revised MMP complies with the San Joaquin County Environmental Health <br /> Department Confined Animal Facility Manure/Solid Waste Management Plan Guidance <br /> Document. Finally,the Revised IS/ND should be amended to include a mitigation measure <br /> requiring that the owner consult with the State Water Resources Control Board and,if <br /> necessary,obtain an Industrial Storm Water Permit,and comply with all conditions of any <br /> such permit. <br /> IV. The Revised IS/ND Does Not Adequately Resolve Questions About Potentially <br /> Significant Impacts to Public Health and Safety and District Facilities from Vectors <br /> There is insufficient information in the Revised IS/ND to demonstrate that the Project <br /> will not result in potentially significant impacts from vectors,including rodents,which may <br /> pose a risk to public health and safety from disease,as well as potential degradation of <br /> District levees from burrowing rodents. The Revised IS/ND must be amended to identify <br /> specific requirements of the County Mosquito and Vector Control District(Vector Control <br /> District)and the California Health and Safety Code that apply to the Project and explain how <br /> those requirements will avoid significant impacts. To ensure that impacts from vectors will <br /> not be significant,at a minimum,the Revised IS/ND must be amended to include a mitigation <br /> measure requiring the applicant to consult with the Vector Control District,provide <br /> documentation of applicable requirements,and comply with all applicable requirements. The <br /> MMRP should require that the applicant provide proof of such consultation and ongoing proof <br /> of compliance with applicable requirements. <br /> V. The Revised IS/ND Does Not Address Potential Impacts to the District's Water <br /> Conveyance Facilities <br /> As indicated in Revised Site Plan(Exhibit B),a District-owned,operated,and <br /> maintained irrigation pipeline rims along the south side of the Project boundary,and a District <br /> drainage canal runs along the north side of the Project boundary. It does not appear that the <br /> Project proposes to locate buildings or other facilities in proximity to the District facilities. <br /> However,to ensure that District facilities are not damaged,and that the District retains access <br /> to this critical public infrastructure,a condition of approval should be included requiring the <br /> applicant dedicate a 30-foot easement for the District pipeline and a 60-foot easement for the <br /> District drainage canal,measured from the center of the pipeline and canal.
