Sanfilippo,Giuseppe [CDD] From: Zeke Shearer<zeke.shearer@gmail.com> Sent: Monday,February 27,2023 12:22 PM To: Sanfilippo,Giuseppe[CDD] Cc: Meghan Shearer Subject: Rivermade Proposed project Highway 12 PA-2100295,PA-2200090 Dear Mr.San Filippo: My wife and I reside near the proposed Rivermaid project on Highway 12 and have the following concerns: It appears that construction of a very large irrigation system in the area of the settling pond has already been completed.Was this done without a permit?If so,this shows their total disregard of regulations and your office's oversight. With respect to the pond,we are concerned with groundwater overdraw and groundwater pollution.What will be done to prevent our water table from being depleted?What steps will be taken to abate pollution,odor and mosquitos? With respect to the building,we are very opposed to PM2.5 pollution and ammonia storage/release.There has already been a fatality at a nearby packing facility from an ammonia leak.What constraints will be in place to ensure that our air supply and environment remain safe?What will the county do to combat the 24 hour a day light polution during harvest? We are also concerned with increased traffic from seasonal workers and trucks. Hair net litter and vehicle noise already occurs as a result of other nearby packing facilities.What is the county's plans for tackling these issues?How will the county prevent increased noise and road damage as a result of increased traffic? Given the limited information provided,we are strongly opposed to this project. It appears this project will have a negative impact on our water-both by depleting and polluting our water supply.We are also concerned about its impact on our property value and quality of life. We appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from you. Best, Zeke Shearer 1 Planning Commission Staff Report, PA-2200090 PA-2100295 (GP, SA) 5 Opposition Responses
